Hi! And welcome to Firecatcher3's 68th Annual Hunger Games! This year, updates will be done when I don’t have that much homework. I will be accepting 24 tributes from the 12 districts. When you submit, I would like

you to include; name, district, age, strengths, weaknesses, appearance, personality, a lunaii if possible would be very much appreciated, and history if you want. Please, do both male and female from each district. This is my fifth hunger game so there will most likely be reapings. There will definitely be chariot rides, interviews, the games, final eight interviews, victor interview, returning home, and maybe the victory tour depending on how many comments I get following the aftermath of the games. Enter your tributes below and good luck!

I may add a twist to this games as 68 is may favorite number.... >:D

Reapings
Huddled around their large, fancy televisions, the people of the Capitol anxiously await the reapings for the upcomming games. All at once, the televiosions flicker to life and the emblem of District One appears on the screen.

District 1
Ryley Cayllyatt - I listen to the sweet chirp of the birds and the laughter of children on the street. Today is reaping day-the day where the tow kids who have prepared their entire lives for this moment get to go to the Capitol and try to bring home a victory. I, being only twelve, will not be competing,let alone volnteering. I follow my mother and father into the beautiful square. Joining my friends in the area roped off especially for twelves, we listen to the mayor drown on about the Dark Days and this years Hunger Games. The female tribute is called, and somehow it is the girl who planed to volunteer. Then a mean boy in my grade shoves me into view. "It looks like we have a volunteer!" The escort calls. What? No! I have no choice but to wander up to the stage. The male tribute, Bone Scart, volunteers for his little sister who was reaped. Both of the selected tributes to volunteer this year glare daggars at us. I shake hands with Bone, this small incident unites us.

District 2
Chisel Jaws - In the square, I stand with my friends, waiting to see who will die, or win this year. The girl is reaped. A cute twelve with blond hair and stiking blue eyes. As she marches shyly to the stage, an older girl Suko volunteers. I know her. She is the asian from school. All-of-a-sudden my name is called and I am being pushed up to the stage. No one volunteers for me. I shake hands with Suko and I hope I won't have to kill her.

District 3
Destiny Bow - I stand with the thirteen's in shock. Did they say my name or was I just imagining it. I don't know, but if it was real, I don't move. My best friend gives me a shove and I glance up and meet Gauge's gaze from across the square. He shrugs gently and nods toward the stage where they continue to call my name and peacekeepers scavenge the crowd. I sigh and nervously make my way onto the stage. People stare and murmurs run through the crowd. I take a seat shyly and lean back in the chair so the two front legs lift off the ground. Who will I fight this year? Who is going to do everything they can to make sure that I don't see the morning? I hear the boys name. My legs stiffen and I am flung from my chair by my own power. I touch the back of my head, blood dribbles in my hand. I look up and see Gauge's little brother standing infront of me. My vision blurs slightly and I see Gauge volunteer for his little brother. Gauge. Will he try to kill me too?

District 4
Misty murmurs slightly in her sleep. This is the one day of the year that we can really sleep in. Even though we are rich enough, we still rise early and enjoy the day. I glance at the small wall clock I gave Misty yesterday. We have a half hour until the reaping-we need to go. I gently shake her from her sleep and leave her to dress. We arrive at the square just-in-the-nick-of-time. I kiss Misty good-bye and wish her luck even though I know it's pointless. There is no way either of us could be reaped. I wait patiently with the group of eighteen year-olds and wait for the reapings. The girl's name is called. I didn't hear so I wait to see who mounts the stage. I nearly collapse. Misty. She stands with her back to me and I can see her tremble. Why is no one volunteering? Someone always volunteers in this District. The boys name is called and I can't volunteer fast enough. Tears inch down my cheeks as I run up to comfort her on stage. Why? I scream out as loud as I can. Why?

District 5
Twinkle Night - My father shakes me awake. Time to go, he whispers. I nod and crawl out from underneath the comforting covers. The whisps of lastnights nightmeres cling to the edges of my mind as I ready myself and my little brother for the reapings. I am old enough now not to be too shaken by the reapings, but this year I have a bad feeling. My brother is too young to be reaped, but the thought of losing him, or him losing me, is to much for me to bear. I blink the final tidbits of sleep from my eyes and enter the square with my father and brother. I sign in and nervously join the other fifteen year-olds in our roped off area. I spot my father through teh enblessly growing crowd and find him watiching me. I give him a reassuring smile. Hey twinkly, I would recognize that voice anywhere. Spike Owens. What do you want, I say. ''Only to wish you luck. ''His menacing smile burns in the back of my mind. Leave me alone, I growl. ''Well, atleast if I get reaped my family can fend for themselves. ''I gasp. How can he say that? He knows he went to far. I haul off and send my fist into his jaw. He can mess with me, but not with my family. When my name is called, I'm furious. Can this day get any worse? Obviously it can because Spike Owens is reaped too. I wonder if he will enjoy watching me die, or will he kill me so he can see in person?

District 6
Golden Hawbrook - Pema. How? How out of thousands of slips? How was she picked? I hold back tears and wait for her volunteer. No one, not a single person volunteers. I don't understand why. So many people adore her-I adore her. I flashback to when I first met her - ''My eyes were fixtated on her bouncing blonde hair. She smiled at me and said; Hi! I'm Pema! What's your name because I don't think I know you...? I smiled slightly. Being so shy, I whispered my name so quietly it was barely audiable. She asked me again; What's your name? I said it again, louder and stronger. She smiled back and said. I like you. Can we be friends? Good. We are friends. Her smile was all I saw after that. Her eyes and her hair. Everything. She was perfect. - ''GOLDEN HAWBROOK. What? I was reaped too? No! Now we can't be together. Now one or both of us will die. How will Pema ever know I love her?

District 7
Max Blonde - I run out of the woods and into my house. I lean with my back against the door panting. They were chasing me, they were. They were trying to get me. ''Max! ''My sister calls. ''Where were you? It's reaping day you know! Come on! Get ready. ''Ok, I thik. Reaping. No fun, but that means I'm safe from the chasers. I dress in my nicest clothes and clean my tail. It is a little knotted, but other than that it's ok from my run in the woods today. At the square, I stand with my sister. She trembles slightly. I know she's scared, but she is safe. The last Tiger Wolf is here to guard her. CHERRI BLONDE the escort calls. My sister balls her hands into feet and stumbles to the stage. I do a double take. I was protecting her. She was supposed to be safe! The boy is reaped. REAGAN ALEXTON. Before the eighteen year old can move I roar at the top of my lungs. I volunteer. The boy looks releaved. I sprint up and shove my sister behind me. The escort asks for my name. When she realizes we're sibblings she announces it. She doesn't realize I'm the last Tiger Wolf, the one who will die to let his sister live.

District 8
Zeus Leo - My parents deliver my brother and I to the square and leave us. I take my brother's small hand and lead him to the table where we sign in. I don't know what to do with him, he is to young to go into the roped off areas and my parents have virtually vanished. After we sign in, I wander through the crowd trying to find my parents. A Peacekeeper grabs me and wrestles me into the roped off area for my age. Wait, I yell. ''What about my brother? ''The Peacekeeper shrugs and wanders away. My brother waits just outside of my rope pen crying. I can't leave the ropes yet, but I want to comfort him and wipe away his tears. The girl is announced. Some super rich girl named Juno Scarlet walks up to the stage sobbing. I shake my head. She will be gone in te first few days. All of a sudden my name is called and I find my feet trudging toward the stage. Wait! What about my brother? I crane my neck and see he is surrrounded by parents asking him where his mommy and daddy are. I run back and grab him. I look into his pinched face and say to a parent next to me,'' find the Leo's those are our parents, but they might not take him. Please keep him safe! ''I let my brother go and turn to punch a Peacekeeper who falls unconsious at my feet. I walk to the stage alone.

District 9
Kasha Farro - I walk with my older sisters to the square. We sign in and they leave me for their own roped pens. I enter mine, the thirteen pen and stand anxiously with my friends. After a while, I begin to pace. What if I'm chosen? I think. Will my sisters volunteer for me? Of course they will. They're my sisters. I instantly relax and begin to joke with my friends. Then the reapings start. The girl is announced. It's me. Now I stand on the stage, alone, and my sisters stare back at me with nothing but content in their eyes. ''Why aren't you volunteering? ''I whisper. I stand until the boy is reaped. Who ever it is is lucky because another boy volunteered for him. A skinny, boy joins me on the stage and announces his name. Bulgar Millet. I don't know him, but I know he has more compassion than my sisters. He cared for the thirteen-year-old boy who was reaped.

District 10
Cornielia Goodland - Pollen and I walk to the reapings together. The mood is tense, but I can't help gushing over his adorable face. Sometimes I just want to kiss him, ok more than sometimes, but I can't. I don't think he sees us as more than best friends. We separate and go to our areas to wait through the reapings. He smiles at me and I make a face back and we're both laughing. I know I'm afraid that he'll be reaped and even more afraid that I'll be, but there's no way that he and I can be reaped so I relax a bit. The escort reaches her skelatol hand into the girls reaping ball and dawns a thin paper slip with perfect handwritting. Corniela Goodland. How? I did'nt sign up for tessera this year, but out of thousands of slips, my name was drawn. That can't be. I walk up to the menacing stage on silent cat feet and wait for my District Partner's name to be called. The escort reaches for the boys ball, Pollen Beekeeper. I begin to cry. Not just sniffles and a few tears, but it's like a waterfall has erupted from my eyes and pours down my face. I can't stop crying, not even to shake his hand.

District 11
Bulgar Durum - I hate the reapings, especially here in District 11. This is a day where I can't devote myself to anything. I can't make money, I can't gather and I can't do anything against the rules because the District is crawling with peacekeepers and camera crews and who know what else. At the sqaure I tune out the Mayor and focus on the trees that rise above the buildings and reach their lovely leaves and branches into the sky. Sometimes that's what I feel like. So close to grabbing something, but then your thousnads of miles away again. I feel like I'm always slipping. Suddenly, the girl's name is called. Petiola Midrib. Don't know her. Who cares. And suddenly I do because my name is called and I have to make my way to the stage. Everything about her I trake in because now this isn't a joke. It's more than serious. It's a deadly games that I have just become a part of.

District 12
Silvermist Gone - I stand in a daze. Was it my name that was just called or the girl standing next to me? Either way I don't move. Just stand there and stare at the stage. The I snap out foit. It was me. My name was called. It's still being called and Peacekeepers are marching toward me at this very second. I roll onto the balls of my feet and take off. I'm not a peice in the game. No, I'm something better. I'm the dice. I decide what happens now because I am in charge of my life in the arena. I dodge Peacekeepers and leap onto the stage in a single bound. The boy is reaped. A meek boy named Ivory makes his way onto the stage. I shake his hand and growl at him. He meets my eyes and snarls into my face. I back down instantly. What ever courage had possesed me is now gone. It's replaced by an unmistakeable fear.

BREAKING NEWS!
"Moments before the District 1 Chariot was about to roll out into the city circle, Ryley Cayllyat, a twelve-year-old tribute from District 1 was killed. Her District Partner, Bone Scart, who was armed with a blade by his stylist, decided to use it to his advantage, and I don't mean just flashing it for the crowd. Just before the horses set into action, he killed his young District Parter. The chariot rides have been delayed a day so a new District 1 tribute can be collected."

Final District 1 Reaping
I felt a sack slip over top of my head and a hand place a gag in my mouth. What's hapening? I tried to scream. I was lifted from my bed and flung over a man's shoulder. They were running from my house. Before we left, a heard a note being written and placed on the counter. My parents started yelleing and I listened as they ran down the stairs. ''Where are you going with our daughter? ''I heard my dad scream. ''She is the new tribute for the 68th Hunger Games. ''The man carrying me replied. I heard my mom begin to sob. I was supposed to be the tribute next year. I was suppoesed to win next year. I still have so much training left! Why me? Why did they choose me?

Chariot Rides
Anxious eyes from all over Panem wait for the chariots to pull out into the City Circle for the second time. Cheers erupt as the white District 1 horses are spotted.

District 1
Colbie and Bone stand in the chariot as far as they can get from one another. They are wearing identical white tunics covered with thousands of sparkling jewels. They look stunning. Colbie's hair is in a beautiful updue with tinsel of every color entertwined into it. Bone holds a staff of sparkling jewels and smiles an evil smile, never taking his menacing eyes off of Colbie.

District 2
Chisel and Suko ride out in their chariot dressed in shimmering black body suits. Each has two blades strapped to their backs and. They faces are covered in designs in black makeup that create a menacing look about the two. Chisel pulls both blades from his back and screams as loud as he can. The crowd responds by cheering and yelling back at him. Chisel returns the call, but Suko joins him. The crowd love them and continue to scream.

District 3
The District 3 chariot pull out onto the streets, but there appears to be no one on board. There are whires that form two body shapes, but it appears that the actual tributes are not present. Suddenly, a bright flash lights the sky and draws attention in the waining night. The tribute smile briliantly. There faces are lit by wires that encircle their faces. The crowd likes them.

District 4
Misty and Logan sling to each other in their chariot. Their skin is died a deep sea green with patterns of gold swirling and shimmering giving the impression of waves. Misty and Logan's wrists are bound with a gold rope around each other so they can't spreat appart. Misty rests her head on Logan's shoulder while he rests his chin atop her head. As soon as they reach the City Circle, they kiss and an explosion of water and beautiful gold streamers. The crowd goes absolutely crazy.

District 5
Twinkle comes out wearing a grean and silver wrap dress that nicely compliments her form. Spike stands as close to Twinkle as he can and is wearing a light green and silver blazer. Twinkle's hair is in a beautiful braid that wraps around her head, but as she tries to push Spike away it begins to fall out. Suddenly, Spike reaches around her waste and draws her into a full kiss on the lips. She struggles and pulls away. Twinkle glares sharply at him, and after all those years of ruthless bullying she does the only thing she can; Twinkle hauls of and punches him as hard as she can. Spike falls down in the chariot unconsious. Twinkle watches him for a moment before staring down the chariot ahead of her. She once looked sweet and innocent, but now she appears dark and menacing. The crowd is shooked into silence.

District 6
The District 6 chariot pulls into view and the crowd is bored. The two tributes, Pema and Golden stand in white coats holding syringes of liquid. They are dressed as doctors. Just as the crowd is about to turn their attention away, Pema and Golden spray their syringes in the sky and they spell out DISTRICT 6 in large neon letters that 'pop' in the darkening sky. Then, the letters explode and candy rains down on the crowd.

District 7
Cherri and Max come out dressed as Tiger Wolves. Their stylists decided to take a spin on Max and how he thinks he is the last Tiger Wolf left in existance. Cherri is a white Tiger Wolf. She looks stunning with her makeup and efining features that make her beautiful. Max is black and all the crowd can see are his eyes and stripes because his stylist painted them in glowing stuff. Max howls and growls at the crowd, but the crowd just laughs at him. Max growls as loudly as he can and his sister flashes into a Tiger Wolf identical to Max. The crowd is impressed.

District 8
Juno and Zeus come out dressed as peacekeepers. This is nothing the crowd hasn't seen before. The tributes try hopelessly to keep the crowd's attention, but to no avail.

District 9
Kasha and Bulgar M. comeout dressed in sinning gold outfits to repressent the color of the leaves in the fall in their district. Kasha looks beautiful as she shines in the twilight. Bulgar M. looks horrific and attractive at the same time. The ladies are falling head over heals for him. Same with the men for Kasha.
