My home district waved me and Peter into the large modern steel train. District 8 wasn't the worst one but we didn't have very modern technology so if this wasn't my death trap and would be really excited to go inside, but no...
"Good luck Willow, see you soon... hopefully." "Bye Peter, planning your funeral now." "Willow hon, your smart, you'll do just fine." Said people in the crowd encouraging for me..... and not so much for Peter.
The shiny doors shut smoothly behind us and closed off my home for either forever or for a few weeks, I'm not going to know until later.
"Ok so all the other kids have been picked so let's take a peek." Aoife said breaking the silence.
There were three kids who just happened to be girls stuck in my head; a girl from district 4 who you couldn't miss with her wild curly hair and hill billy accent called Cat Fisher, a very tall girl from district 11 who had grass stains on her jeans called Arrianne Robinson and not the tallest, blonde girl from district 9 who had the most amazing eyes I've ever seen on a human ( because I've seen some snazzy eyes on a dog.) called Rowan Waters. I could see Peter squirming in his seat as EVERYONE looked bigger and tougher than him ( not that it was hard to be) I wasn't too worried as I was pretty mean with a bow and arrow.
" Here are some new clothes to change into" handing both of us packages, "get changed and then you can meet your trainer, seeing as no one has done the hunger games before the best personal trainer in district 8 will be your trainer his name is Bobby Smith. OMG Bobby was know throughout District 8 for being REALLY hot, well something good, at last has happened!
I went and got changed into the blue waterfall type dress Aoife had given me and let my long blonde hair out of its braid, hum, yeah I looked pretty good for a change which was good as Bobby was down the hall but then I remembered where this train was headed.
I walked into the dining cart to find Peter struggling to even cut his chicken, he was definitely going to be one of the fallen few. But then I turned my attention to Bobby who looked glad to see me and someone to be more hopeful for in these games. "Hey gorgeous!" Bobby exclaimed kissing me on both of my burning cheeks, " Please sit next to me." He said just making this day slightly better. I wish I could say this was the best day of my life because I was sitting eating a delicious meal with my celebrity crush Bobby Smith but Aoife was doing her best to distract Peter and I from what was left to come.

"Willow we're here!" Bobby told me from the train window the next morning as I sat at the breakfast table the next morning. I got up from my chair and walked over to him, and looked out the window to see a very modern city was this the city I was going to die in?
