p style="text-align: left;"strongemThe sweet taste of blood fills my lungs as I breathe out, causing me to smirk in pleasure. It reminds me of all my conquests. All my wins. All my peers I have had murdered to get to where I am now. It fills me with a sense of pride./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongemI go to take a swig out of my wine glass, but a knock at my study disturbs me./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Enter." I call, a deep sense of authority clear in my voice./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongemImmediately, keen not to disappoint me, five of my best Peace Keepers enter my study, followed closely by a nervous looking Sterling Bass, my head game maker. /em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"You may leave now." I nod at my peace keepers, and, as always, they leave on my instructions./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongemI peer through my cold, calculating eyes at Sterling, who has began to shuffle on his feet. I stare at him some more, enjoying how uncomfortable he is getting the longer I continue to look at him./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Sterling, I trust you are here to see me regarding the upcoming games?" I ask, finally getting bored of watching him uncomfortably shuffling on his feet./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Yes, President, Sir," he answers, looking slightly more confident. " I thought that because it was the 24th Games this year, and every year there are 24 tributes, we could do something a bit different."/em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Continue." I order, sitting up slightly in my seat, trying not to show too much interest in his idea. /em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Well, I thought maybe we could link each other tributes with another tribute, announcing the partnerships after the chariot parade, and then they have to look after each other in the arena, because if one dies, there is a chip in their partner which will cause them to die as well. This chip will slowly cause their body to shut down once their partner had died, but lasts 12 hours, so still results in final winner. Then, when there are only two pairs left out of the twelve, we take each of the tributes remaining in separate hovercrafts, disable their connectivity chips and place them in the arena, forcing them to fight for the title of Victor."/em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongemI look up at Sterling, who is slightly flushed and excited after talking so fast, and begin to laugh. It is such a genius idea, it is sure to bring all of the Capitol people to watch and support. This could turn out really well for us./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Very good Sterling, you've excelled yourself. Now get back to work on the arena and mutts." I snap, the cold look back in my eyes./em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongem"Thank you, sir. Of course, President Sir." He stutters, now flushing with pride and embarrassment. /em/strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongemAs the door clatters shut behind the oaf, I begin to chuckle. This truly will be a games to remember.../em/strong/p
