Andrea

I waited for the fear to sink in. But none came. Nothing came. I just felt numb. I wasn't even surprised when my name was called. Me, Andrea Albig, would be known. And so would Nathan Sykes. We'd both be known. The tributes of District 6.

I wasn't scared. But I could feel my heart beating in my head. Nathan was shaking with the train as it moved. The boy who had the voice of an angel. Who sang all the songs at school. The boy who punched the bully in the face for calling his brother a coward. I thought he wasn't scared of anything. But being a tribute is different. Fighting for your life is different. Being in the Hunger Games could change anyone.

Nathan

I was shaking. I knew it and so did Andrea. But I couldn't stop. My body was overcome with fear. I glanced at Andrea. She was still. Her eyes were glued to the empy chair across from her. I had no clue of what she was thinking. Her expression was blank.

It didn't matter now if I had sponsors. Andrea could kill me without even blinking. She was the rebel and the star child. Who could compare to that? Who could survive over her?
