Ch 1: prologue
Jason Watt, 30, Head gamemaker
I paced around the room in front of President Hamilton's office until my assistant decides to speak.
"Mr. Watt, you seemed nervous," my assistant Christian said.
"I'm sorry Christian, I am a little nervous. If President Hamilton doesn't like the arena or games this year, you might have a new boss next year," I told my assistant.
"Don't worry, we have a lot planed this year, the president will like it", Christian assured me.
"I hope so," I said before President Hamilton's secretary calls us in.
"The president is ready for you, Mr. Watt," the assistant says.
"Thank you," I said to her as Christian and I walked through the doors to President Hamilton's office.
As I walked into his office, I see President Hamilton in his chair, smiling a little bit as me and Christian sat down in chairs before his desk.
"Well Jason, as this is the 25th Hunger Games, I expect a good arena to top last years games. That shouldn't be hard as you were head gamemaker last year. Now, what do you have to show me?" Hamilton said.
"Christian, please turn on the projection we brought," I asked Christian.
"Yes sir, Mr. Watt," Christian replied as he turned on the projection of the area we are currently building.
"A forest?" Hamilton asked.
"Yes sir," I responded. "The other gamemakers and I have decided to a big forest. What you see is a giant forest with various lakes for a water source around. The forest setting also allowed us to create wolf mutts and a fire to the arena."
"Interesting," the president responded. What is the progress of the arena?"
"Our builders are currently building the arena as we speak," I said. "The arena should be ready before the Games start in two months."
"That sounds good Jason," Hamilton said. "The two of you may go." "Thank you, Mr. President," I responded. Me and Christian bowed before him and Christian turned off the projection and starts to carry it with him. We left the room confident that this years Hunger games will be the best one yet.
James Hamilton, 50, President of Panem
"Ladies and gentlemen of Panem," I say to the camera from my office that is being broadcast through the Capitol and 12 districts. "As this the 25th Annual Hunger games, I decided to add a twist. Every 25 years, we will have a Quarter Quell. I will select a theme from this box you see on my desk. Each Quarter Quell will have a unique theme." I select a slip of paper from the box and I read it out loud. "This year theme will be that each district will now send two boys, and two girls to the Capitol this year. This means that there will be 48 tributes this year with 4 representing their district. The reaping is next week, good night Panem."
After the camera turned off, I smiled. 48 tributes this year, I wondered in my mind, this will be a interesting year.
Hey guys, so we got a little prologue setting up the games, up next is District1's reaping. I will post that as soon as I can.
