"Hello!" The voice rang out from the depths of the train car. Then the face emerged. I recognized him as Asher Knight, winner of the 54th annual Hunger Games.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCaj1bfnUx
"Hello," said Lilac, the other tribute, "I'm Lilac."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtswnZhF6AL
"I know, I saw you getting reaped."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilcq5Aryjr
"I know you did, I'm just giving you a formal introduction."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7QXTliubf
"Well, in that case, I'm Maisie."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzJNrAjbDe
"Wait! Where's Anika?" Blurted Asher.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ86xo3SPZE
"What? She's in the dining room," Lilac explained.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa30W4Gd8ut
"Why?" Both Asher and I asked.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGgI0nErLO
"How do I know?" And that concluded to conversation. Lilac retreated to her room in the train, and I moved to the dining car to get lunch, where Anika and Anton Duval, winner of the 48th Hunger Games. were talking. Oh, did I mention that Anika and Anton like each other. A lot.
As I was grabbing a roll from the table, Anton asked me, "Are you in here for tips for the Games? Because I have lots."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8DJw9uAh3
Sure, I'd love tips, but he won the games by hiding in a cave, setting traps and waiting until almost everyone was dead. Then he came out with all the weapons from his victims, and brutally murdered the last few. No offense to him, but that isn't my style. It's gruesome. Plus, the hiding wouldn't work now, the game makers are too smart. They learned from his win, that they should just start a fire in the cave, or have it collapse, so that they get more encounters.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng7NFhHZWP
"Um, thank you, but no. But I might take you up on that offer later."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ872d96bDXP
I watched as he and Anika left the room, leaving me to sit down and eat.
"Are you OK Maisie?" It was Asher.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfYcTAvYPb
"Yeah. I'm fine. I'm just thinking about my younger brother. I don't know how he'll handle this. My older sister and my mother can, but he's twelve, and I'm the person he goes to when he needs help."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtn4eYMrVt
"Oh...," 644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmJyp2CxSO
"It's okay, I'm not expecting any sentimentality. Is Lilac okay, I think you're the only one who would check. Anton doesn't seem like the type."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSzafQRvWJ
"Yeah, she's fine. She's kind of in her own world."644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHX00lSsCf
"Well, Glad she's ok." I said, standing up, heading the back of the train, and looked out the windows, seeing the city approch.
"Hi Maisie." It was Lilac, walking into the room644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonYrCQjvNk
"Oh, Hi Lilac," I replied.644Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEhYsL9nlB
We talked until the train stopped. We hadn't seen each other anywhere in the district, but we got to know each other so well in those twenty minutes
