## Backstory

### Life As a Child

**Bryce Law Hennings** was born and raised in District six, son of Lawson Hennings and Milyna Hennings. Due to District Six being Panem's main transport district, his father Lawson was a hovercraft pilot and his mother Milyna was an operations overseer for the crafts. Bryce grew up lonely, not having any siblings nor friends due to the fact he often watched his dad work a lot.

#### District 6

Within the District he often watched the mistreatment the people had received from the Peacekeepers. The higher-ups within the Capitol often came to meet his mother for deadlines. He had seen all of it from a young age, allowing him to observe that as he grew up - the people of District Six were puppets. At the age of thirteen, Bryce was a witness to something he shouldn't have seen. A group of Peacekeepers had been bugging a girl, no younger than himself. They were taking the fresh food from her bag that she carried and were tossing it to the ground, becoming physically and shoving her around in the process. A part of Bryce had been set off by it. The feeling caused him to react impulsively, throwing a rock which had hit off one of the men in white, allowing the girl to run away with her things yet Bryce wasn't so lucky. Little did he know, that wouldn't be his last encounter fighting a Peacekeeper.

#### The Escape

Bryce was sixteen when he awoke to his mother shaking him, begging for the boy to wakeup and to gather the few things he needed if they could fit in a backpack. He was confused, it was barely dawn and his parents were tearing their house into *literal* pieces...yet all the creates which once sat still were gone. He grabbed his few books, a bracelet he found a long time ago as well as the old knit grey sweater he had stolen from a stranger a few years back. It took a few hours of darkness and being on the hovercraft before he found himself surrounded by missiles and people he had never seen before, all in a place he had never seen before. An hour later, his parents had left, leaving the boy alone with only his fathers aviator jacket, and a kiss on the forehead from his mother.

#### District 13

Bryce took a while to adjust to District 13. His first few days were the worst they possibly could be, that was until he was assigned to be overlooked by Lukas Blair. Then what Bryce had assumed would be the worst few months of his life, turned into some of the best after he warmed up to the older boy.

He would make a deal with the people who worked alongside his father, the deal being that in a year, if Bryce passed all his training, he'd be able to be considered for a pilot. Someone who transported between districts but was actually carrying supplies and intel into Thirteen, one like his father.

Alongside Lucas, he met his sister Lila Slayte who would, overtime, become one of his closest friends.

### Life In District Thirteen

#### The Beginning

Bryce worked as hard as he possibly could from the first month to the end of the first year. It shocked everyone to see that he was able to go from not leaving the room as well as using books to prevent socializing, to being able to fight at a moderate level. He had gained muscle, was now standing at 5'7 and had just turned 17. His grades in school were exceptional, which was shocking sue to the fact he wasn't the brightest at times, english being the highest. Within the military assessments he was paired with someone he'd never trained with, yet passed them with a semi decent score. When confronted as to why Bryce had dedicated so much of his time focusing on fighting and wanting to become a pilot, he simply stated it was to be who his father was, *to help a cause,* to fight for what was right.

#### First Flight

Two months after Bryce qualified to be a pilot, they took him up in the air to actually see if he could handle running a mission much like his father used to. To just their luck, it ran perfectly. The only thing was, that Six didn't seem the same. The number of Peacekeepers was upped by an amount that seemed almost unreasonable, almost watching everything. Having him in the District first hand witnessing what it became over the previous year was difficult, even though he could walk eyes closed and know every way through Thirteen's main route, there was no way through the amount of Peacekeepers that surrounded.

He managed to still make his way through to give papers to who he needed to, as well as get the supplies that were supposably going to District Eight. He was able to clear airspace in perfect time as well, almost making it nearly as successful as his father's runs were. Yet, due to his age and being a few months away from turning eighteen, he had to wait for the full position.

#### First Kills

October second was the day that changed Bryce. It started off as a near normal day, though as it progressed, *everything* went downhill. Bryce didn't plan on killing someone when he entered his hovercraft with the two rebels following to sit in the back, one being a male named Ben, the other someone he didn't know. Bryce even did more than his regular system checks with his co-pilot, something he should have did regularly but usually passed by. Upon landing in Six, it seemed too dead to be true, even during the early morning. Though the two pilots stayed in the hovercraft, allowing Ben and the other to do what they need to do. About an hour later, they didn't return. It was also beginning to get busier, they had to leave before someone suspected something.

They had to do something, luckily Bryce knew his home like the back of his hand. Ten minutes into running and sneaking, he showed up at the meeting spot yet upon turning the corner, stood two peacemakers and their informants who he guessed were working for the Capitol. Ben laid on the ground, held at gunpoint as the other rebel who went along with him laid dead. One of the informants wasn't armed, he could see, yet the other had a gun which looked accessible. Bryce had two choices, to leave the male who taught him the majority of his fighting knowledge or to fight back. So he chose. It happened quickly. First thing he did was knock out the closest informant with a kick to the back of his legs, taking him down with a grab of the pistol from the open holster. Then he raised the pistol and shot the first Peacekeeper twice to get him down, nailing the other right in the neck where there was no padding. Upon getting close enough, he kicked the assault rifle out of the Peacekeepers reach and turned in time to block the punch from the still standing informer. Using his height to his ability, around 5'8 at this point, he got under the taller man's grip and took him down with a dive to his stomach. Knocking the wind out of the man from the collision to the concrete, he then used the gun to shoot the man under him dead then swinging the pistol under his left arm as he shot the Peacekeeper dead who was bleeding out.

Though another shot went off shortly after, Bryce panicking and feeling his own abdomen yet he was fine. Upon turning quickly, Ben was up and holding the Peacekeepers gun which was pointed at the informant who was about to stab Bryce from behind, knife now on the floor. With a grab to Bryces collar, Ben was pulling him up and sprinting out the warehouse door.

#### Commander

Upon Bryce turning twenty, he was granted a title of a Commander. THEA is working out bye bye she finishes this later te quiero mis bebes !!!!
