Hi, I am Joka from District 2. My district is very cold when winter arrives, because we live on a mountain. District 2 is famous for its stonework, but now it is also known for making weapons. It is one of the richest districts and has the best living conditions because it is loyal to the Capital. All the Peacekeepers are trained in my district, because we are heathy enough. In the centre of my district there is a huge building where young people train for the Hunger Games, but I never trained there because the lessons are useless.There are a lot of Peacekeepers around my district because most of their families live in District 2, so nobody wants to go to another district.
I am 18 years old. Since the Gamemaker made the Hunger Games 74 years ago, members of my family who were Tributes have won almost every Hunger Games we have participated in. I live with my dad, my mom and my little sister. I was a really funny and sunny kid, but since I was a Tribute in the Hunger Games I have changed. When I was 16, I got into my first and last Hunger Games of my life. I saw people kill each other. Nobody cared who you were or who you loved. They just killed each other. On the second day I saw with my own eyes a boy kill his only sister. When I saw that happen, I questioned a lot of things about why the Capital made the Hunger Games and why they decided to choose two Tributes from each district. Then I understood that they just wanted to control everyone in the world by showing people they could just kill children and you wouldn't be able to do anything about it. I was thinking all this in a cave until someone said I was the winner. Since then, I keep looking for a way to stop the crime the Capital started.
Since I came back from the Hunger Games, I have started contacting people from other districts who want to rebel against the Capital. I am hoping Katniss and Peeta will join soon. We don't have enough power yet, but we will soon. I am Joka, the first District 2 revolutionary.
