Prologue 4: Kai
EXO Hunger GamesI'm Kim Jongin of District 4, the fishing district. Since the reaping rules of the 77th Hunger Games were suddenly changed, I was pressured by fellow district members to volunteer as District 4's tribute. Why volunteer, you ask? Well...I am a Career tribute. Like the boys I'll meet soon in Districts 1 and 2, I've trained for long periods of time just for the Games. It's strenuous, it's a lot of work, but I believe it'll pay off in the end. I'll volunteer at the time of reaping; I feel prepared.
I slowly changed into my formal clothing with every wish and thought that raced through my head.
Oxford shirt on. I wish I could know who the tributes are right away.
Pants changed. I'm anxious to see who else's fate was decided by a bowl of paper slips.
Tie on. I wanna know how training in the Capitol will go.
Hair brushed. I'd like to meet Caesar.
Socks and shoes on. I want to put pride in my district. I want the answers to everything now.
I am beyond anxious now. I'm almost excited for the Games now. Why am I pumped up? I have no idea. I have a 1/12 chance of winning, or a 91% chance of dying, however you like to dress it up.
But somehow I'm still...ecstatic. I can't tell if I'm ecstatic to kill, win, or die. Yet.
