Announcement of the 1st Hunger Games

Every district in Panem stood in silence as the president announced the punishment for the rebellion that they had just done. Everyone stared up at the giant monitors in their district to listen to what the president had to say.

''Good evening everyone. How have you all been doing, not too great I suppose since your little stunt didn't go as planned, huh? Haha, well, since all of you think it's funny and thought that you could oppose the capitol after us loving you, nurturing you, and taking care of you, and giving you all our love and support? Think again, you will all be severely punished for what you have done! To make you think long and hard about your decision, I will declare that starting in two months, two tributes from each district, ages 12-18, one boy and one girl will compete in an arena to fight to the death until one lone victor remains standing. This will be known as the Hunger Games and will happen once every year. Any further announcements will be broadcasted later today. Have a wonderful day.''

Everyone in Panem stood in silence after the president announced his punishment. Parents started screaming and crying as they thought of their children being chosen to participate in this horrific event that would place once every year. Children ran home crying and trying to hide under blankets thinking they were safe. Panem was in distress and hoped that the president would switch the punishment. Sadly, that wouldn't be happening.

''President Real, isn't this too extreme?'' Said Darius.

''No Darius! Let these fools see the consequences that await them if they try to ever repeat and events like this again.'' Said President Real.

''But—''

''Darius, shut your mouth. The president will not change his punishment and not let you talk back in front of him. You don't want to get executed like...'' Said Sabrina.

''I understand.'' Said Darius, ''But, this just seems too extreme.''

''I'm glad that you understand, now both of you, get out of my office, I need some paperwork to file out.'' Said President Real.

''Yes sir!'' The both of them say.
