The Capitol audience, watching from the comfort of their homes, can hardly wait for this. As the logo of the Hunger Games flashes on the screen, they suck in anxious breaths. The Quarter Quell—the first one ever! How exciting—is so…original and twisted. They fawned over the twenty-four tributes the districts chose for the games. How perfectly evil, how wonderfully diabolical it was to force the districts to pick off sheep outside the flock, to group closer together and force the black sheep outside. It's marvelous.
They can see the twenty-four tributes, poised on their platforms. A stone wall, about six feet high, surrounds them. They'll have to scale the wall to escape the bloodbath. In the center is the Cornucopia, made of iron. Spilling out of it are guns, old-fashioned pistols and rifles. How perplexing. There's a few ornately carved knifes, too. As for other supplies, there's a small stash of leather knapsacks.
But what's most interesting, besides the stone wall trapping the tributes in for the bloodbath, is something the Capitol audience hasn't seen yet, but something they will soon. The twist for the first Quarter Quell.
Let the Twenty-Fifth Hunger Games begin!
Author's Note: So thus begins the first Quarter Quell. Please review, it really makes my day. Tell me what you liked and what I need to work on. Thanks!
