Rebel's Revenge: The 76th Hunger Game
For the 76th Hunger Games, one of the ideas put to a vote was to reap children from the Capitol for the 76th Game. This is a glimpse for each character reaped during the conclusion of the Hunger Games.

The Cornucopia, an image I have seen for so many years. Only now do I really recognize what it means. It is a banquet, a feast that represents our means of survival, but also for death. Almost ready to launch to the little plates that we must stand on. I say a departing thanks to my mentor whom I don't even know. He is just another nameless face that stood up behind Katniss Everdeen during the rebellion. One of the thousands of soldiers. So many nameless faces. Even in the Hunger Games, it is so easy to just by chance become part of the background.
"Thank you, for everything," I tell the man as he turns to leave. I should be scornful, just like every other Capitol citizen, but I cannot bring myself to be so spiteful. He is unable to hold back he surprise, and smiles at me and disappears into the shadows of the gloomy launch room.
And then I'm there in the arena. Shock grips me as I see the blank null landscaping. Gray concrete as far as the eye can see. It is still land, you can see valleys and hills, but there is nothing. Just concrete and the Cornucopia- dismay and helplessness, vulnerability, finally hits me and I come to my senses. The Cornucopia of the 76th Hunger Games is composed of entirely weapons. No food, water, medicine, supplies, nothing. Just deadly looking weapons.
And with this bleak landscape, the Gamemakers have more or less guaranteed a short, messy, little Game. Anyone who tries to run off will die of dehydration in a matter of days. It is the ultimate arena, saved just for the Capitol citizens.
