The Fate – Chapter 1

"On the 25th anniversary, as a reminder to the rebels that their children were dying because of their choice to initiate violence, every district was made to hold an election and vote on the tributes that who would represent it." – President Snow.

A young President Snow, possibly in his late twenties, pulls out the yellow card and reads out the words. Fear starts to strike the hearts of the Districts. This was new, a twist. Whatever this Quarter Quell was, it was horrible. Like the past Hunger Games, 24 tributes will be sent to the Games and only one will come out. But this time the Districts have to choose who enters.

Districts 1, 2 and 4 will have no trouble selecting their tributes, they would just select the toughest careers they have. The other Districts… not so much. Any child between the ages of 12 and 18 can be chosen, the only questions that remain are: Whose children would they send in the Games? Who will be the chosen tributes?

Only time will tell when the Reaping comes around...

President Snow waves to the crowd, turns and walks into his mansion followed by the little Avox boy with the Quarter Quell boxes. He walks down the hall towards his office and the little boy turns left into a corridor. Snow opens the office doors and is assaulted by the smell of roses and blood. He sits down and rubs his mouth, the taste of poison still lingers.

'Call for the doctor.' He commands to one of the Avoxes.

The Avox nods and hurries out the door. Snow turns his chair around to look at the city square from his giant glass window. His citizens walk around the street excited about the news of the Quarter Quell. The door opens again and a old man enters the room.

'We can't cure it Mr President.' The doctor says

President Snow turns his chair around and looks at the old man with his snake eyes. 'I beg your pardon?'

The doctor replies nervously, 'The poison you used... It's too strong to cure, even for the Capitol medicine.'

Snow smiles humorlessly and nods, 'Then you are dismissed.' The doctor nods gratefully and leaves. President Snow drops his smile and looks back to one of the Avoxes, 'See to his execution.'

The Avox nods again and leaves. While he opens the door, another man comes in. It's the commander of the peacekeepers, 'Sir! There have been outbreaks in the Districts, possibly from the news, Sir!'

'Stop shouting. I'm not deaf, you moron.'

'Sorry Sir.' The commander says, looking down.

'Send in the peacekeeper forces, that should silence them.' Snow says with a wave of dismissal.

The commander nods and leaves. When could someone just leave me alone? Just then the door opens again with a bunch of noisy news reporters. President Snow sighs tiredly and smiles for the cameras.
