Reaped 😨👪

Morro and Lloyd aren't cousins in this, and Seliel and Jay aren't twins in this! This is based off the Hunger Games

Reaping day. One of the scariest days for teenagers.

Kai Smith was in his best clothes, as was his little sister Nya. They were two years apart. Nya was 14, Kai was 16.

Kai gently nudged Nya towards the line of girls waiting to get their finger pricked, "Go line up, I'll find you later, I promise!"

Once his finger was pricked, he made his way to the crowd of 4s. They had all been separated by districts. Since Kai and Nya were District 4, they were in the middle-ish.

"Kai!" A voice hissed. The teen turned to see his sister standing next to him. Kai hugged her tightly, "Don't worry, you'll be fine," he mumbled.

"What about you?"

"...I'll be fine too,"

This was a lie. You see, Kai had other plans. After his dad died, it was just him, Nya and his mother, Maya. Maya had fallen into a deep depression, meaning Kai was pulling all the weight. He decided to volunteer for the games, and bring home the glory.

Minutes later, an alarm was rung, signalling that the Reaping was beginning. A woman wearing Capitol clothes stepped towards the mic.

"Hello, everyone, and welcome, to the 45th Annual Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favour! My name is Dilara, and as usual, let's start with District 1."

She dug her hand into the bowl, picking out a single slip of paper. She opened it up and read aloud the names, "Lloyd Garmadon!"

A boy, no older that 15, shuffled to the front, his head bent low. He had tousled blonde hair, and Kai could make out the piercing green eyes. He stood at the edge of the stage, since they needed to fit 24 kids on there.

"Now, for the girls-"

"I volunteer."

Murmurs arose, as a girl stepped out of the crowd, with blonde hair and green eyes. Dilara's eyes gleamed, "Very well! Step forward."

Kai watched as the girl made her way to the stage, her face emotionless as her voice. Once she made her way up, the mic was shoved into her face.

"And...what might your name be?"

"Pixal Borg," (You guys were expecting Harumi?)

"Well, our first volunteer! Go stand with Lloyd, and we'll commence with District 2!" She wobbled over to the bowls, her heels clicking, and picked out another slip of paper, "Morro Airen!"

A tall muscular boy strode up to the stage, with neck length black hair, that had a strand of green. Dilaran smiled, "And now for the girls...Keira Marsh! Oh! We have a runner!"

A little girl with brown hair and blue eyes made a run for it, only to be caught by the Serpentine Warriors and brought to the stage.

"And that concludes the Careers," Kai muttered under his breath, as Dilara went on to District 3.

"Jay Walker-Gordon!"

A teen, who looked around 15 shuffled to the stage, with crazy brown hair and blue eyes. "Now for the girls!"

Digging through the pile, she brought out another slip of paper.

"Alisha Dane!" Kai watched as a blonde haired blue eyed girl with a tear-stained face went and stood next to Jay, her bottom lip trembling.

"Now! District 4!" This was Kai's chance. Just as Dilara was about to pick out a slip of paper, he spoke out.

"I volunteer!"

"What?"

The voice hadn't come from Dilara, but Nya. Everybody's eyes were on the two siblings, as he looked at her, and watched her face crumple. "I am so sorry, sis! I have to do this! We could really use a win!" he hugged her tightly, just as the Serpentine Warriors approached them. He let himself be led up to the front, and onto the stage. He could see his sister with a panicked look on her face.

"So, what may your name be?"

"Kai Smith..."

"Well, our second volunteer! Kai Smith! And now, for the girls!"

Dilara trotted to the selection bowl again and chose another slip of paper. And Kai's worst nightmare came true.

"Nya Smith!"

The teen's blood froze as he heard his sister's name getting called out. Nya pushed through the crowd, and was led up to the stage. Dilara and all the others had pitying looks on their faces.

"Well...the odds may not be in all of our favours..." she murmured as Nya was pushed to stand next to Kai. She was one of the smallest tributes there!

She didn't stand a chance.

All the voices faded from Kai's head, and all he could hear were the other tribute's names being called, mixed in with his sister's.

"Zane Julien!"

"Skylor Chen!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Cole Brookstone!"

"Harumi Jade!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Christopher Stevens!"

"Alyssa Darroch!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Kataru Realms!"

"Seliel Dawn!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Griffin Turner!"

"Savannah Racer!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Scott Unagami!"

"Camille Form!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Luke Cunningham!"

"Vania Stone!"

"Nya Smith!"

"Jack Holt!"

"Sophia Barnes!"

"Nya Smith!"

This was getting too much for Kai, and his head grew heavy. The last thing he heard was his sister call out his name in a panicked voice before he passed out.

"Kai!"
