Captiol, President Cyon Pollux, Year 200
Panem held their breath as President Pollux slipped his hand into the white box, drawing out a slip of paper with death practically written on it.
He looked down at the crisp paper and then stared up at the camera, smirking with almost a hint of humour. "The Hunger Games have never died. Despite the weak acts of rebellion, the Capitol has fought back each time and rose supreme. Two rebellions were formed against the empire district, and a third one would be murderous for the districts."
He let a deathly silence fall upon the crowd, while licking his dry lips once more before proceeding. "And as a reminder, that a third rebellion would result in obliteration of the districts, the Eighth Quarter Quell and Two-Hundredth Anniversary of the Hunger Games will allow the tributes less than two-hundred hours to produce a Victor. This amount of time is the equivalent to around 8.3 days. If there is not one last tribute standing by this allotted time, then mutations, bombs, and chaos will occur non-stop around the arena until there is a winner."
As the president spoke these words, a boy crossed the stage to the podium where Pollux stood and handed him a yellowish sheet of paper.
A state of confusion washed over the president, following a breakout of hysterics.
Through his laughter, he managed one simple sentence. "At the end of the Games, the Victor will be allowed to select one district to be eliminated from Panem."
And then, around Panem, almost simultaneously, the fearful realization sank in.
IMPORTANT: If the Quell isn't clear, then here are the basics:
-The arena will last until two-hundred hours, after that, the Gamemakers control what happens in the arena and will release muttations, bombs, and etc. into the arena.
-At the end of the Games, the Victor will select a district for the Capitol to destroy following the Games.
Those are the key points, and reapings will be posted soon, soon, soon.
