Jonathan Vasquez =The Hunger Games=

= Katniss =

=I feel so bittersweet that my sister would not have to compete in the hunger games but I have to. I don't know how a simple sixteen year old girl with brown hair and almost no combat skills what so ever could survive in the harsh violent enviornment of the hunger games. I have seen the other competitors in the games and most of them seem to know what they're doing but a few were at my skill level. I thought that it was very thoughtful of the spectators to have bought me a medicine packet because i know they cost a lot. I feel that the hunger games is just a fancy phrase for death sentance.= =I do not want to die but the other tributes are better skilled in combat. I don't like the games but i do like the tribute's living quarters they have so many attachments to them. I have befriended a few of the combatants but in the end i know only 1 of 24 can survive. I thought i would be killed near the start but i have to remember that i did this all to mantane my sister's safety I wonder what peeta is thinking about he may be thinking about how about how I am a tool that he is just using to provide our district with victory or maybe he is thinking how much of a good friend.=

=I think this is all district 13's fault because if it wasn't for their rebellion there would be no hunger games and no pointless killing. I fear for my district because if petah and I die our district will get nothing for our efforts. I cant even begin to think how district 12 would survive without the rewards of victory from the capital.=

=Setting=

=The setting ofd the book the hunger games takes place in the ruins of north america witch is now called Panem. Panem is the northern america of the future it is alliened with the capital in the middle and twelve surronding districts. There used to be thirteen districts but the thirteenth was destroyed by the capital after it's rebellion thus the hunger games were born to keep all of the other districts in cheek. none of this could happen in the present because they have machines that are not even close to being invented yet. also the the past america would never let children fight one another in melee combat to the death.Even the housing is better constructed and are almost as ecuipped as a present day manson.=

=The other characters are terrified of the setting because they are fighting against one another in melee combat to the death. I am pretty sure that the other combatants are just as fearful as i am.They games are so violent that some competitors just die= = = = = = = = = = =
