_____________________________

{{ Why hello! I'm Aleksandra Maria Brinley. Aleksandra is pronounced almost the same as "Alexandra" but instead a "x" sound it's more of a "ks" sound. My middle name Maria was all the females on my mothers side of the family's middle name. I think it's quite lovely and beautiful. I don't think I have to explain my last name because that's just because of my fathers name. I'm 17 years old and I was born on October 13th 1995. I am 5'9" which I think is the perfect height, not to tall or short. Perfect. I'm from the Luxury district, district one. We provide the luxuries that the Capitol has and my district and district two have the most victors so far in the 22 years of games. Looks? Well I'm a perfectionist so everything on me has to be perfect, hair curled just the right way, clothes has to match, stuff like that. I have natural curly dirty blonde hair and I'm lean and skinny but I'm stronger then I look. I have blue eyes with brown flecks in them. As for wardrobe I usually wear pastel colors or floral prints and my hair is almost always up in a ponytail. If your looking for a specific outfit then, I wear combat jeans (the ones with all the pockets) and a pastel shirt with construction boots. personality? Well I'm talkative and friendly to those in my district anyways , I love having funny and laughing but I'm a hard working and I'm very competitive. Once I'm in the hunger games I won't be friendly to them besides the careers. I'll mostly be competitive, hardworking, and having a good eye for things. Since I grew up in a career district I went to an academy for a little while. When i was there I immediately fell in love with the bow and I'm a pro at shooting an arrow if I do say so myself. My other weapon of choice if one of those losers tributes take it before me would have to be the sword. I'm pretty good at handling one but I don't like fighting up close , I like to be away from the enemy shooting an arrow at them. History? Well my history is the history of Panem of coarse but if you want my personally history then fine Mr. Nosy pants. I grew up a pretty average life in district one I have both of my parents still together and happy and everything my life has been the best I could have it expect. I have a little brother who's 10 and is annoying! Love life? Okay now your just getting personal. I have no time for a lover aren't you forgetting I'm being sent to a death match and I have a 1 out of 24 chance that I'll live. I think thats it oh yeah! I forgot my strengths and weakness. For strengths I'm atheltic, good agility and know how to make a fire. As for weakness -ugh- I'm short tempered , don't trust others easily -I'm having a hard time trusting district two even - and I'm not the best person to be put in the same living area as bugs. Okay now that's it.}}

[[ We may start today with the reapings. What I'll require is an opening post that entails what is happening, and will judge each player by their post to who has the best odds so far. Does that sounds fair?

kitty - district 12

"How many times is your name in?!"

Silence.

"Kitty, how many times did you put your name in."

"47, okay." The black haired girl replied back to her father.

"Why? What is wrong with you?"

"I did it so I could feed my little brother because when you are home, all you do is drink, Dad. Remember when you actually cared, but ever since mom died you have been a drunk." Kitty spat. "Unlike you, I try to keep Lathan alive and well fed. Game has been scarce. Whenever I go out it has only been squirrels and stupid pigeons, so don't tell me how to keep this family going."

"Get out, now." Her father said as he took one more sip of his whiskey.

Kitty didn't cry, but calmly, yet with such aggression, grabbed her light weight brown leather jacket and ran out of the house. Still running, she reached the fence that was supposed to border the District and climbed under it. Now slowing into a fast pace, Kitty grabbed a bow and quiver, along with a case of blunt throwing knives, out of the hole under a large, dead oak tree. Walking deeper and deeper into the forest, the girl took recon to the small creek and deer hoof prints near it. Following upstream, the girl came to see a doe. Quickly drawing an arrow she released it and as it flew in the air, the deer moved lodging the arrow into a tree. Today was not her day. Kit retrieved the broken arrow, stepping onto a large rock, Kitty heard footsteps crunching the leaves. taking a throwing knife she held it tightly in her sweaty palm. Just as someone walked out from behind the tree she threw it and saw it was Lily, her best friend. The knife hit the tree, luckily.

"Thanks for almost killing me." Lily said trying to catch her breath.

"You should have said something." Kitty said pulling the knife out of the tree.

"If I knew it was you, I would have." Lily said in reply.

"Yeah, because so many people come here." Kitty smirked faintly.

The two began to walk back to the dead oak.

"You do know today is the reaping, right?" Lily said bringing up the reaping.

"Yeah. I know." Kitty said storing her weapons in the same old spot and the two began to walk back to the fence. Both crawling under it, Lily added one more thing.

"I only put my name in 5 times."

"You don't have a whole family to feed." Kitty said.

"Kitty, don't tell me-" Lily said being cut off by the huntress.

"Yeah, I have a family to take care of, well Lathan and my dad is just....." Kitty said.

"Even if you were picked, you would win." Lily said as they walked into the small village.

"No, I would die. Because they have been trained their whole life. I only live in District 12. Where you can starve to death, in safety." Kitty replied with such anger. She ran her hands through her dark hair and looked at her friend. "You won't get picked. I know you won't. It's going to be some girl with no hope and a boy who thinks he can win, but actually ends up dying."

"Why are you so negative, Kitty? All you do is bring people down." Lily said and walked away.

Kitty walked back into the house she had no regret running from. Seeing Lathan ready for the reaping she sighed. "You'll be fine, Lathan." She said and went to her room and got ready.

Laying out the baby blue dress that her mother had once warned made her even more dismal. She bathed herself and got dressed. Kitty went through her sock drawer and pulled out a silver necklace with a bird she didn't really know about at the end of it. Then pulling on some boots, she laced them up to make them look at least a little formal. Last, but certainly not least, Kitty did her hair. Pulling it all back she made a french braid starting at the left side of her bangs, and ending on left side of the back of her head. It went around the right side and swooped above her neck and to finish it, she put tiny yellow flowers in it. She was finally ready. Walking with her brother and her father, Kitty checked in and went to her age group. Lily was one year younger than her, so her friend stood in a different group. Kitty looked around to see only dismal faces. Not dismal, more of worried and scared. Anyone could be picked. Her heart raced. What if Lily was picked? What if Lathan was picked? Neither were good when it came to defending themselves and using weapons. Lily had always been a petite gal, never got into any fights or hurt anyone. Lathan, he was just like Lily. She began to breathe very fast and her heart was racing. Everything around her went quiet. Seeing that hand go into the bowl and pulling out a slip of paper. It was a girl's name. Any girl standing. For a moment, the world stood still... Until the name was read. Before she could do anything she quickly shouted cutting the person off.

"LILY-!!!!!" The microphone boomed as it was cut off. Everyone looked at Kitty.

What did she say? She couldn't think straight. Soon, guards escorted her to the stage. Kitty said the four magic words.

I volunteer as tribute.

[ultraviolent]

Aleks woke up smoothly. She did everything like she normally would. Brushed her teeth, got dressed and combed her hair. She looked in her mirror for longer then usual. Aleks was almost studying herself. she looked her eyes like she was staring at another person not her. she then looked at her hair studying it color in the artificial light, the she looked at her outfit briefly before sighing to herself. "you always seem different on the day of the reaping Aleks but what...".

She walked to the kitchen of her District one home. she saw her Mom Serene sitting at the table next to her Dad Jaime and her little Brother Cole. She knew her family's normal habits. They didn't really talk on reaping day instead they were praying that it wasn't their children. Aleks knew her parents were a little different for district one adults. Even though most loved to volunteer , her parents told their children never to volunteer because they don't want them to leave them. Aleks doesn't know why they're so concerned over safety but oh well. Aleks didn't sit down instead she grabbed whatever her eyes saw first then grabbed it and walked out the door putting her boots on and walking to her friend Darren's house.

She arrived at his house and knocked on the door. He answered with a half smile then said " Hey Al, ready to volunteer as tribute' he almost said in a mockery tone. Aleks let out a small smile and a short laugh " you know my parents would kill me if I volunteered.... ' Darren nodded " but either way your dead right?' Aleks nodded half heartedly then they both walked to the city Hall for the reaping.

" so Aleks , if your no going to volunteer then I guess I shouldn't because we wouldn't be sent to our possible doom together"


" No don't volunteer, there's only one winner and if we both go one of us is going to be dead for sure....the other might have a chance....anyway im volunteering I cant stand being stuck in the same crowded district where I know everybody....I want to have a thrill to life...a meaning not just being stuck here in district one for my life. don't get me wrong I love it here but...it gets old...im done ranting now Darren"

" ha-ha, your quiet the talker...so your volunteering...im sure you'll win your one of the best when we were at the academy ....and you are friendly and will probably get sponsors easily...''

"...thanks I guess.....anyway its time for the reaping...I guess this is the last time you will hug....possibly if I beat the odds of killing even the careers....'' she gave him a hug then they went off to get there blood sampled.

Once everyone was where there suppose to be the announcer slowly walked over to the girls, he must've known one of them were going to volunteer.

Aleks second guessed herself should I volunteer....I don't know .....just say it I volunteer as tribute. once she snapped out of her thoughts he was about to call a name when a center voice stopped him.

It was aleks's voice.

I volunteer did slip out of her thought and into booming words.

>> okay so I try to match everyone else in length so I don't seem like a weakling, I hope this is enough for the reaping post ^.^ also excuse the lower case "i' my moms tablet doesn't correct them to "I" and im sort of in a hurry they wont be there all the time ....
