The Chooser stood proudly at the bowls of slips. They had names on them. "Are you ready to see who will be sent to the Hunger Games?"

Silence greeted her question.

Luna shifted in her seat uncomfortably. 'Who will be chosen?' she wondered.

The Chooser-- whose name was Thunder-- reached her bright yellow paw into the female bowl. "Just remember, this is a national event. These will be all the females who enter."

'Oh my Moon!' Luna thought. 'Will I be chosen?'

Thunder took her blinding neon paw out of the bowl. "Amara, Leliana, Aqua, Luna, and Elly."

Luna looked for the creature whose name was Elly. She was a Vaporeon. She looked very strong.

"Now for the males," Thunder said, stepping to the blue-tinted bowl. "Prince, Douglas, Ty, Adam, and Darkfield."

Ty was a Dark Leafeon. Adam was a Shiny Gallade.

'Great,' Luna thought. 'I have to kill Deadlox. I love his videos! And Darkfield...'

Ty's face drained of color. "Me?" he said quietly.

"Good luck to the tributes," Thunder said.

"May the odds be ever in your favor!" the crowd exclaimed.
