128th Hunger Games - Beauty In Pain - SYOT

by teampeeta1227

"The 128th Hunger Games will be exciting to watch. After all, there is beauty in pain." The Games are back for another year! The SYOT is open, so submit up to three tributes. The rules are inside. The faster you submit tributes, the faster the story will be started.

1. Introduction

Abraham Springle, the Head Gamemaker, walks to President Duke's office. He knocks on the door, and the President opens it.

"You wanted to see me, sir?" says Abraham.

"Ah, yes," says President Duke. "As we know, the 127th Hunger Games are coming to a close. But we must think ahead. We must be prepared for next year's Games soon. Being the Head Gamemaker is a full-time job, not just a job that exists during the Games."

"I know," replies Abraham. "We have in fact been preparing for next year; the arena is almost done being designed and I have an idea that is sure to be a success."

"Which is what?" asks President Duke curiously.

"Each year, most deaths are caused by the tributes themselves, and there are occasional deaths caused by us Gamemakers." President Duke nods, and Abraham continues. "But I was thinking that for the 128th Games, the Gamemakers wouldn't really step in. We would let the tributes do all of the fighting. After all, a brutal, intense sword fight is much more interesting to watch than a tribute that died because of a flood or a fire."

President Duke nods; he sees where Abraham is coming from.

"Of course, the Gamemakers would still help," says Abraham. "But the actual deaths would be left up to the tributes."

"I like that idea," says President Duke. "The 128th Hunger Games will be exciting to watch. After all, there is beauty in pain."

I am so excited to be doing an SYOT! It's my first one, so bear with me. :) The form to submit is on my profile, so feel free to submit up to 3 tributes. I will choose only the best ones, not the ones that come first. Remember to be unique with your tributes! The faster the tributes are submitted, the faster I can get the story started. Thanks - can't wait!

Note: Please submit tributes by PM unless you are a guest. I will not accept any tributes submitted via review unless you are a guest.

P.S. I recommend reading the prequel to this story, The 127th Hunger Games - The Choice Is Yours. It can be found on my profile, as it is written by me. It is almost finished (we are down to the final two!)
