Chapter One

It was a beautiful sunny day, but everyone was rather gloomy. Today was the day, the day of The Reaping. The Reaping only happens once a year, and they pick tributes from each district to fight for The Husband Games. It's not to the death or anything, but It still has death-threatening situations.

Me and my sister stood at the middle of the field, waiting for the clown that comes every year to announce the tributes. And as if one cue, a blue-haired barbie walked up on stage.

" District Twelve, District Twelve. Today is a glorious day. If anyone here doesn't remember let me refresh your mind, " she said enthusiastically, " The Husband Games, is a traditional games played every year to encourage more woman to join. This is a fun game, where you have to give It all your best and marry the hottest male celebrities. Now, shall we start The Reaping? " She finished off with a grin.

She reached one of her bony fingers over to the big translucent bowl in the clearing.

" The first tribute is, Bethany White. " she squeaked, and then a girl I assumed as a bitch came up the stage, flipping her perfectly dyed blonde locks. She gave a blinding white smile and sat down on one of the big chairs.

" Now for our next tribute, please come up the stage, Lola Grey. " she said, and another girl came up the stage with a shy demeanor to her. She had black locks and wore oversized clothes.

" Okay, next is Rachel Atkinson. "And a girl with natural blonde locks came up the stage she screamed bad ass and the first tribute glared at her, probably intimidated by her looks.

" Second to the last, Please come up the stage sweetheart is Wendy Thompson. " Then my sister came up the stage, a huge grin etched to her face. She was so giddy that her brunette hair when bouncing everywhere.

" Our last- sadly tribute is Abby Thompson, Oh my It looks like we have sisters, and she's a beautiful one too. " The lady complimented as I hid behind my red curtains. My face was flushed and my sister gave a small smile.

" Once again, our tributes for the Seventy-Fourth Annual Husband Games. " the Capitol music played and we were guided to the train.

We were guided into our rooms, and me and my sister were roommates.

" It's no doubt that you'll get your man, you know? Your very pretty and smart, and athletic and- " my sister started and I just burst out laughing at her rant.
