~Chapter 3~ That night I couldn’t sleep. My heart and mind were racing. How could i be chosen for the first strike!? My parents were going to gladly watch me die!? I decided to get up when i saw my brother Malvin tip toe to the door and leave. I followed him out to the portal room. I saw him type in ‘beach’ and disappear. So stupidly i walked through the portal… Everything around me disappeared then suddenly i appeared at a beach. I saw malvin walk towards princess Amaya so i quickly dived under a bush. “What are you doing?” Someone whispers next to me. I jump “ahh!” I turn and see Princess Bailey. She covers my mouth. I look and see Amaya turn around and look at the bush but doesn’t see me. She shakes her hand then turns back to malvin. “What are you doing?” I whisper to bailey. “Couldn’t sleep. And when i saw Amaya leaving i decided to follow her here.” She explains. I nod and sigh, “how could our parents do this to us?” I felt like crying the pain in my stomach couldn’t go away. I look at bailey, she’s looking at the ground. “What?” I ask. “It’s today.” She says. “What is?” “We’re going to draw from a hat the competitors so its not for sure to be us but, its likely sense we are royal our names are in more than the average.” “And you’re lucky” she sighed. “At least you have a chance of not being in it. I’m forced to be in it. I suddenly knew this day was not going to be good….. Once me and bailey got back to the castle it was 7 am in the morning. We split up to our rooms to change. I put my long brown hair in a long braid behind my back and put on a button up dress i would usually see girls from the town wear. We all were told to wear ‘normal’ clothing that people in the town would wear. Amaya put on a white shirt and a jean jacket with rainbow feathers on it. Amaya told me that she didn’t want to fit in with others. If she was going to be chosen she wanted to at least look decent and feel good about herself. And Bailey just out on a short yellow school girl dress. I didn’t really pay any attention to any of what the boys wore. Our first destination was my district. District 2. We all teleported to town square. Everyone in the royal family sat on the stands while me and my siblings went to our lines and spots. King griffin stood infront of everyone smiling broadly like there wasn’t going to have 23 of us die and one survive. As king griffin explained the rules of the game i could see everyone waiting nervously and some of the little kids crying. “Now for the selecting of the lucky chosen from district 2.” Griffin announces. He puts his name in the hat and picks out 8 names. He places them all on a table beside him. “For the boys, Asher Thomas, Dylan Smith, Cayden Moore and Malvin Samuels.” I gasp! Malvin! How could they!? The Four boys walk up the staircase and stand by king griffin. Finally the moment i was dreading the girls. Just like he did for the boys he puts his hand in the hat and pulls out the names. "Avery Quinn, Missy Liam, Thalia Madison and Brooklynn Samuels" Everyone turned to me. i was shaking with fear my throat went dry. i shakily walked up to the stage. King Griffin smiled and said "the Tributes for District 2!"
