Chapter 1: May the Stars Shine Down

It was a cold and stormy afternoon, and the reapings for the Hunger Games were about to begin. No one enjoyed the games, because they were always filled with blood, betrayal, horror, and death. They forced twenty-four tributes to go into them every year, and only one ever made it out alive. So the odds weren't ever in anyone's favor.

This year however, was a special occasion. Forty-eight tributes were going into the arena. That's double the amount than usual. And that just meant double the casualties. The citizens in District One, the Luxury District, were actually quite fond of the games. Although they didn't enjoy seeing their friends and family killed, they thought the games as a way to bring glory to their District.

Many citizens trampled down the wet cobblestone road towards the District's Justice Building. That's where the Reapings were held every year. Goombas, Koopa Troopas, Humans, and Pokémon alike lined up in the crowd, all awaiting the reaping to being. The Country of Panem was diverse when it came to its inhabitants.

The crowd went silent, and all you could hear was the sound of the rain as it splashed onto the muddy surface. But then, the sound of fragile footsteps could be heard. A tiny man with a mushroom like head walked up to the microphone. He was short, and was wearing a backpack. He held a small pickaxe for some reason, and he wore a small light on his red-dotted head.

"Um...is this thing on?" asked the District's Escort. The poor thing tapped on the microphone with his small fingers. "Ah yes. There we have it. I'm Captain Toad, your one and only Escort for District One!"

A couple of people cheered, but others remained silent. "Anyways, I'm glad to have the honor again to be your Escort again this year like so many years before." Captain Toad said. Some of the Goombas in the audience make some chuckling noises. Captain Toad just faintly smiled and wiped his bros.

"Yes." Captain Toad said. "Let's begin, shall we?" A video began to play on the monitor, a video that was showed every year reminding us of the Hunger Games and why they were held. The video lasted only about two minutes. "Okay!" Captain Toad said again! "Let's call out our first Tributes!" Captain Toad reached into a glass bowl and grabbed a slip of paper out. He opened it up gently, but his hands got dirt over the white paper.

Before Captain Toad could read the name out though, someone yelled out. "I volunteer!" yelled a loud and bulky voice. Everyone glanced in the direction of the voice, and a giant blue penguin was walking down the isle with a giant hammer raised behind his shoulder. A bunch of Waddle Dees were trailing behind him, and some were even crying!

"And you're name?" Captain Toad asked.

"I'm Dedede." The blue pension spurted out. "But you can call me King because that's what I am truely meant to be." Dedede started laughing loudly and banged his hand on his big belly. It sounded like a drum or something.

"I'm tired already of this." Captain Toad whispered to himself as he chuckled slightly. "Our next Tribute is non other than Bowser Jr.!"

A small Koopa with a bandan over his mouth rolled up onto the stage in a Koopa clown car. He pulled his bandan down, jumped out of the vehicle, and laughed liked a little kid. "All right you nasty little idiots!" Bowser Jr. shouted as he approached the microphone. "I'm winning this for my Dad!" He said. "I don't know where he is, but I'm gonna find him. I'm gonna win and find him once I win these Games!"

A while passed, and the other tributes were chosen. Rosalina and Peach. They both had the appearance of a princess. They didn't seem too scared, but neither one could hold a straight face. "Okay!" Captain Toad screamed "There you go folks! Your four tributes this year! King Dedede, Bowser Jr., Peach, and Rosalina!"

The crowd somewhat cheered, and Rosalina walked up to center stage. "May the stars shine down on us while we are in the arena, and may they guide the way to everlasting light." Rosalina said gently. The rain had stopped, and a small ray of light shown down on Rosalina. There seemed to be a sparkle in her eye as she turned around towards the Justice Building.

"What a tramp..." Peach silently whispered to herself as she giggled like a princes would. Peach then smiled and followed the rest of the tributes inside. "I hope they have some cherry blossom tea on the train." Peach said once again to herself. "It's my favorite. Oh! And cake!"
