"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.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUYaJOJHks
"Hello," said Lilac, the other tribute, "I'm Lilac."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfHvFXNWLc
"I know, I saw you getting reaped."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX36sx758D
"I know you did, I'm just giving you a formal introduction."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOa8nKUzxm
"Well, in that case, I'm Maisie."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3gUgo2IS7
"Wait! Where's Anika?" Blurted Asher.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8VXGTAgXW
"What? She's in the dining room," Lilac explained.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVNYnX6hWR
"Why?" Both Asher and I asked.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpntH7cnXP2
"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."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYWRr5VJC0
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.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbpGYjwMLb
"Um, thank you, but no. But I might take you up on that offer later."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPprKof1r5M
I watched as he and Anika left the room, leaving me to sit down and eat.
"Are you OK Maisie?" It was Asher.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LPevEZxto
"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."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYwfoIhXX8
"Oh...," 801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiUaYbqKZ8
"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."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVnz15NfHn
"Yeah, she's fine. She's kind of in her own world."801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSy2KZVKt4
"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 room801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklxgpMd95J
"Oh, Hi Lilac," I replied.801Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb86UurWGzw
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
