The Hunger Games (By Bratterratt, FiREBiRD ! & SomebodyD

[Bratterratt]

Based on the Hunger Games Series (Hunger Games, Catching Fire, & Mocking Jay)

The Hunger Games takes place in an unidentified future time period after the destruction of North America, in a nation known as Panem. Panem consists of a rich Capitol and twelve surrounding, poorer districts. As punishment for a previous rebellion against the Capitol, every year one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each district are selected at random and forced to participate in the Hunger Games, a televised event where the participants, or "tributes", must fight to the death in a dangerous outdoor arena until only one remains.

Arena: This years arena is the same as presented in the first book. There is a lake an the entrance, near the cornucopia which is set in a field. The rest of the arena is a forest. A small stream and tiny pond sits among the rocks as well, providing water, but it is far from the cornucopia.

[Bratterratt]

[It could fit in Games/Gaming, but since its us three and it's exclusive, it's more of a story than a role play, though we are each writing about certain characters. Adding your names now SD. I'll get your other four soon!]

[firebird!]

Could I only play four characters?

Atleast until I get the hang of things..

male in 1: Kodie

[Bratterratt]

[Sure that's fine. What we can do, is just have the extra tributes either up for grabs or we can RP them as needed! Are you guys ready to start then?]

[Bratterratt]

[Okay. Most of the names are in. So let's begin. Any questions or comments from now on are limited to PM. Let's begin at reaping day.]

[Bratterratt]

The sun streamed in through the small, single window lighting on the empty mussed bed in the bedroom. The room was poorly furnished, with the bed and a simple stand sitting next to it. A tall thin girl walked slowly to the window, braiding her long, bright red hair down her shoulder. She was Alcina Terrass, a daughter in a family with thee brothers, two elder, one hardly a toddler. The sun caught on her bright blue eyes as she looked out the rippled glass window at what consisted of her home, District Seven. Today was it. Reaping day. Two youth that she new, possibly even herself, would be chosen to go to the Capital today, to compete in the Hunger Games. A shiver ran down her spine at the thought, her lips murmuring a gentle wish. "Please. Let it not be me."...

Up before the dawn, the young man closed the wooden door hard behind him as he entered the home he shared with his mother and several younger siblings. Gale Evergreen knew his chances were high this year, his name duplicated several times in the glass dish where the waiting tribute's name would be drawn from. Gale began to wash his face and hands, in an attempt to rid himself of the plaguing coal dust that covered everything in District Twelve. People were already beginning to gather in the square...

Okay! Everyone's added!

[SomebodyDude]

Flax pulled on his best white cotten shirt. He had just turne sixteen a few days earlier, finally old enought to accually do some real good for his family. He leaned down to pick up his fathers trinket for good luck. Soon after his mother found out she was going to have him, his father had been reaped on his last year to place his name in the bowl. He was killed in the arena, the last one to die before the tribute was crowned, she was only thirteen but had suprised him. Shooting him in the back with an arrow from close range. He picked up his little brother and they started to walk twords the square. His mother walking beside him with his little sister.

------------------

Clove put on her best green dress, brushing down her chocolate brown hair and tucking a white lily behind her ear. She then started to the square with her father and thirteen year old brother. Her mother had been too upset to come and followed behind them. They soon reached the square, being led off by the peace keepers to the ropped off area. The reaping would soon begian.

------------------

Aspen led his sister through the groups to the roped off area, their mother and father were nowhere to be seen. Lost in the crowd somewhere. this was their third year. They were twins but yet they looked nothing alike or acted alike either for that matter. They were both fifteen, very few other than them were their age, infertility had came to many families in the year they were born. Their eyes all locked on a small woman that came on stage, A speach was made and the victors from periverous years were annoucced. Their were fifteen still alive. five women and ten men. Soon after Effie started "Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor! Girls first!"she said cheerfully, although no one with children was amused. She dug her hand into the large bowl, digging out a name...
"Dew Twats!"
A scream and then sobs peirced the air, Dew wanted to faint. But was jerked forward onto the platform. She didn't showweakness but felt it greatly. The womant then dug her hand into the dish,
"Lake Marcos!"
Another set of screams and sobbing started, more than what had happened for her. Because the boy was twelve. He had one slip in the pot. a one in a thousand shance and yet still been drawn. A voice erupted from the pens,
"I volunteer!"
A few people let out gasps. No one ever volunteered. That is when Dew fainted.
"Well then! Welcome Aspen Twats!"
It was her brother.

--------------------

Fawn stayed quiet in the pens. Her father had only let her put in the two slips she had been forced to. She was thirteen. She stayed sielnt even when people were talking to her. Her father had said to act fearlic even if she was just going to stand there. Her heart was pounding as she waited for the names to be drawn.

-------------------

Flint waited where he was, this was this second to last year to put his names. He had only two people to put then in for anyways, and they were only his grandmother and little sister sitting on her lap. A woman walked on stage. The speach was made and the mayor annouced the last remaining victors, there were seven still alive."Happy Hunger Games! Good luck to all! Girls first"a woman we all knew as Effie Trinket said gleefully. She rattled her hand around in the pot and pulled out a name annoucing it clear and smooth. No! It could not be her! Flint's throat went dry, it had been a girl in his class he had known for years.
"Tia [Insert last name here lol]!"

-------------------

Will waited for Effie Trinket to start, pushing away his little sister whom would have to put in her name next year. He ran his fingers through hi red ish brown hair worriedly and he rose from a crouch as he watch his little sister run back to his mother and father upset as ever. Why dose Ella have to be so darn annoying?

[Bratterratt]

Tia's heart dropped as Effie Trinket read the girls' name from the bowl. It was unexpected and yet, so probable. Her name had been written carefully on fifteen little slips of paper, an arrangement to get her family the meager supply of grain and oil available to them. As if pushed by some unseen force, the girl's feet moved towards the makeshift wooden stage, stepping up the sturdy steps. Taking her place by Effie Trinket's side, silent and shocked...

-------------------

Layla stood, her posture still, her expression hard as Effie Trinket began the reaping with her usual expression, "Happy Hunger Games! May the odds be ever in your favor!" The woman's hand dug in the bowl and pulled out a slip, but before the name was read, Layla knew with an internal lurch of pain that it would be her. Intuition perhaps, or merely a backwards dejavu. She didn't hesitate to break from her weeping mother's grasp to stride up onto the stage. It made sense for it to be her, with her father being a previous victor. It was as if the Capitol weighed the odds against her. To add drama perhaps to the already bloody games. Layla took her place up on the stage just as Effie Trinket pulled out the boy's name and read it in her usual cheerful voice. Will.

-------------------

Alcina barely held back the tears that threatened to spill over when she heard the female tribute's name called. How was it possible? But slowly she managed to take her place, her jaw quivering as she tried her best to appear expressionless...

[SomebodyDude]

[Were is Firebird?]

A scream erupted from the crowd at will started to stride twords the stage. Ella showed herself agian sobbing and trying to stop him from going up on stage. Will knew why too, if he died in the arena... There would be no one but mum to take over. He didn't want to think of the outcome. He crouched down and grabbed Ella"Listen, I have to go. Take care of mum for me and be good. I don't want you crying for me. Got it?" Ella shook her head to say she understood still sobbing, "No go back to your mother, Be nice to Mint Terse. He can help you."Will pushed her to his oldest friend, Mint, and walked on stage. His head held high.

---------------------------------------------

"Get her up!"Effie said suddenly smileing "Good luck to the Twats Twins!"
Aspen lifted up his sister as they were ushered away to the train that would take them to the capotil. But they turned next door and were led into a room in the large peacekeeper building. Dew woke from her dreary sleep.
"You shouldn't have volenterred!"She yelled at her brother"Your only gonna get us both killed"
"We are not go-"Aspen was cut off but his sister, and would be several more times before she finally broke into sobs in his arms and his parents walked in. They all sobbed together for a while and then their father held their mother while she sobbed he explained, "Keep you r head held high. Listen to what you mentors say. Got it?"They nodded glumly and hugged them both one last time before they were led off and Dew and Aspen Twats were loaded onto the train to go to the capital.

[I'm going to send her a PM.]

Layla watched as Will's family wept for him, her face hard. Though she was not a career, being of District 11, her father, the victor, had trained her with what he could, though technically that was against the rules. But who enforced those anyway? After the usual goodbyes in the peace maker building, the female tribute was shoved onto the train along with her male counterpart, a single word still ringing in her head, said by her father. "Survive."...

-------------------

Saree wept and cried as she was taken to the stage, having to be forced by two of the peacemakers. Disgusted stares and disapproving comments made her way, to the young fourteen year old girl who was supposed to be considered a Career. She knelt on the stage, her body wracking with silent sobs, doubled over with grief. Before long though, she was sent to the train, after having only one visit for goodbye, her mother, to express her distaste at the tear-stained Saree. And then it was to the train, and to the Games...
