hi! I had a sudden motivation/inspiration rush and wanted to write out a bit about two of my hunger games ocs, Sienna elwood and cassia briar. This happens a day before the reaping, I hope you enjoy!
rated teen for: mentions of death and violence, more will come later and I might update this section. If this ever needs to be bumped up to mature, or anything like that (or if you’d like me to Tw anything else, tell me!
the intro in italics is the intro text from the first hunger games film

From the Treaty of Treason:
In penance for their uprising, each district shall offer up a male and female between the ages of 12 and 18 at a public “Reaping.”
These Tributes shall be delivered to the custody of The Capitol. And then transferred to a public arena where they will Fight to the Death until a lone victor remains.
Henceforth and forevermore, this pageant shall be known as The Hunger Games.
Sienna Elwood, a 13 year old girl from district 7 of Panem, tried to tune out the tv broadcast that played every year at her school. It was her least favourite time of the year, the time of year when the Hunger Games happened. She hated the sense of dread she had gotten at the reaping last year, and watching the games on television every year she could remember. She looked across the room at her best friend, Cassia Briar, and she made eye contact, giving her a comforting gaze. Sienna had known Cassia since they had been little kids, and she knew how much Sienna, an emotional, empathetic girl, despised the idea of the games.
When school let out, the two of them walked home together to their neighbouring houses on the edge of the forest that surrounded the district and provided most of the population with their jobs. District 7 was a lumber district, and Sienna and Cassia had quite a bit of experience climbing the trees near their houses and could even use an axe with decent ability. They stopped by Siennas house and dropped off their bags, said hello to her mother, grabbed a small snack, and joined Cassia’s father in his woodworking shop. He said he had a surprise for them.
“Two… pieces of wood.” Cassia said, questioning the gifts from her father. He smiled.
“I thought that I’d let you two carve each other a sort of token, so if either of you ever end up in the games, you’ll have something to remember each other by!” He explained.
“…if?” Sienna didn’t want to think about the “if”, but accepted the offer and used his guidance to make a rough-looking heart shaped piece of wood. Cassia had a similar one in her hand. They watched as her father sanded down the pieces of wood, and strung them onto pieces of string.
“Here. You can wear them as a sort of necklace now.” Cassias father said as he handed them back. They put them on, admiring each other’s handiwork. The two girls thanked him and ran off to the large tree behind their houses.
Sienna and Cassia climbed up onto the big, sturdy branch they always sat on, the one that overlooked their town. They shared the chunk of bread they’d been given by Sienna’s mother, and it was a few minutes until someone finally said something.
“Hey Cass?” She said, using her nickname for Cassia, “What if… one of us really does get reaped tomorrow?” Sienna wondered, finally getting the thought out of her head.
“Well… then I guess we’ve got to make it out of that arena and back to Seven, right?” Cassia said, trying to be hopeful. Cassia was always the one who would try to cheer up Sienna. She sighed, failing to keep on the bright side. “I guess-“ she paused to think. “I just hope neither of us changes in the arena.” Sienna looked at her.
“Promise?” Sienna asked. Cassia smiled, though not very much.
“Promise.”
