Prologue~

The horn blared out and I rose out from the ground and finally saw our arena, it was a beautiful meadow, sweet smelling flowers were everywhere, but I didn't have time to enjoy the view. I focused on the cornucopia and what was available, I zeroed in on a bow and some arrows, I needed to get them. My eyes swivelled around to Peeta, by the look on his face, it seemed that he only just realized he was in the Games, that this wasn't a dream and that there was a chance he could die. But I wouldn't let that happen, I couldn't let that happen, he had his whole future ahead of him with my sister, I couldn't hurt Sarah like that, I couldn't kill her soul mate and someone had to keep Gales dirty hands off of her. Then I thought about Finnick and my heart sunk, I was going to have to break his heart to save Sarah's, I took a shaky breath and wiped my eyes quickly, now was not the time to be weak, I couldn't let these monsters see me cry. I sighed and tried to wipe Finnick from my mind, but he was all I could think about, his smile, his laugh, his sparkling eyes, I hope my sister would keep her promise that she would be his friend, that she would help him move on. I couldn't let these Games ruin his life anymore than they already had, he didn't deserve this. I sighed again and looked up, I had to stop thinking of home, I had to think in the now, like the others, I had to get ready to kill, to survive.Then Caesar Flickerman's voice blasted across the arena, "Let the Games begin!" I cleared all thoughts from my mind apart from kill.survive.save Peeta. And I ran.

Chapter 1~

I stood in the kitchen, watching while my mother was cutting up a piece of beef that she had gotten from the butchers. I smiled and looked around, we didn't have a big house, but it was nice compared to other houses in District 12. We had a few drafts occasionally, but we were doing okay, we had enough money to re-stock our food at least once a month, the other times, I hunted for our food. I got snapped out of my thoughts by mom. "Hmm, what? Sorry I was thinking"
She chuckled and said with a roll of her eyes, "I said, can you please go outside and gather some herbs?"
"Sure" I walked outside, I had moved on to thinking about something else, something my sister Sarah had told me. I shook my head and started to pick some herbs when our dog, Gator, ran up to me and barked happily, I smiled and scratched behind his ears. We were lucky to have a dog, when myself and Gale went out into the forest to hunt, he came with us sometimes. Mom wanted to name him Ruffles because of his thick fur and tough appearance but my sister wanted to call him Gator, so we did. She usually took him into the woods when Mom wasn't looking, mom didn't like the idea of Gator running off and getting lost, anyway, Gale usually went with Sarah, which bugged the hell out of me because he was like her stalker or something, he was like a dog with a bone, he never left her alone, even though she was going out with Peeta. I smiled at the thought of my sister and Peeta, they were a sweet couple. I smiled down at Gator and rubbed his ears "Your distracting me" I kissed his head and started to pick more herbs. Gator watched me for a while, then must of got bored because he barked and started digging, I giggled, this was his plea for attention. I bent down to pick a herb before he dug it up for me when he started to lick my face and I smiled affectionately. "I love you too" I scratched his back and stood up straight, walking towards the house, patting my leg, "Come on, lets go inside". Tail wagging, he followed me inside.

I put the herbs on the table and picked Gator up and scratched behind his ears again. "Mom.. have you heard anything about Finnick Odair coming to live here? Sarah said one of the kids at school was talking about him"
She looked curious at thie piece of news and shook her head, "No dear, I haven't. Ask your sister when she comes home, she should be here in a few minutes."
I nodded and looked down shyly, "And she keeps saying Haymitch fancies me," I pouted slightly "He doesn't, does he?"
Mom just smiled and gave me a look, "I would say every boy loves you honey, your beautiful" She said this like I should know this already.
I just blushed more, she was being a typical mom and anyway they didn't love me they lusted after me, that was all. "No they don't"
She just smiled again, most likely at my blushing and nodded towards the door, "Go outside and see if your sister's almost home"
I pouted and went outside and I rolled my eyes and sighed when I saw Gale walking with Sarah pulled close to him, he was disgusting, I'm tempted to shoot an arrow through his stupid, dummy head. But I wasn't going to do that, just tell him off a little. "Gale, get your dirty paws off my sister" I glared at him when he whispered something in Sarah's ear and then looked at me innocently, "Oh please, she loves it" He kissed her head and looked at me. "You ready to go or not?" I had had enough of Gale for today, I wasn't in the mood to hunt with him, I may kill him, so I just sighed and pulled Sarah into the house, "I don't need to go today, so me and Sarah are staying in, bye Gale" And I shut the door in his face. "That boy gets on my nerves"
Sarah just smiled, "Hey sissy"
I smiled and ruffled her hair, "I don't know why you put up with that boy"
"He's my friend" She hugged me gently, "I love Peeta though" And her face lit up just at the thought of him.
This made me smile as well, I was glad she had picked Peeta and not Gale, people like Gale were bad news. Then Finnick popped into my mind and I looked down at her "Has anyone talked about Finnick today?"
She nodded and looked a little annoyed "Ugh-huh, the girls won't shut up about him. Gale and him are the supermodels of the District."
I snorted at that, "Oh please, Gale is a little bit cute and that's it, but Finnick.. Finnick is.. he's just beautiful" I sighed dreamily
"Gemma loves Finnick. Gemma loves Finnick." She said in a sing song way, she 17 and she acts like an 11 year old.
I glared and smacked her around the head, "Shut up! Where is he living anyway?" I asked out of curiosity, not because I wanted to stalk him or anything, but of course this is what Sarah thought of.
"I dunno, I'm not a stalker.. LIKE YOU!" She smirked and ran off before I could grab her.
I ran after her quickly, "MOM! SARAH'S BEING MEAN TO ME!" I smirked when mom shouted at Sarah to be nice to me and that's when I grabbed her and smirked, "Yeah Sarah, be nice~"
She put on a innocent look, "I know where Finnick is, by the way, I wouldn't be mean to me"
I cursed to myself, she wasn't playing fair, but I just sighed and let her go, "Fine, I just wanna see him, that's all"
She smiled and hugged me, she knew I had a crush on Finnick, I had ever since he had won the Hunger Games and now I had a chance to see him, why shouldn't I? She suddenly spoke up and snapped me out of my thoughts. "I'd hurry, he's at the Market right now. I'm gonna go pick some berries for Momma."
"Yay!" I kissed her head excitedly and ran inside, "Mom, I'm going to the market to get stuff.. for Sarah" I smiled and kissed her cheek, then ran outside and to the market.

When I got to the market, I looked around frantically, worried that Finnick had already left before I got there, but then I found him in the crowd and I smiled, then I bit my lip and muttered to myself, "Oh great, I see him and I have no idea what to do" I looked up to make sure he was still there and he was smiling handsomely at me and I blushed, why was he smiling at me? Not that I minded. I figured instead of standing there and gawking at him I should go talk to him, so I walked over to him slowly, slightly intimidated "Hi"
