Beck Mohr, Victor of the 90th Hunger Games

It's the moment we've all been waiting for. When Nolan Bronze stepped through the Academy doors for the first time, I knew he was something special. I took him under my wing, prepared his strategy for years, and finally made him the chosen volunteer. It's like he's my own son.

"Focus," I say, "Don't get overconfident. Just breathe and stay loose."

His interview went well. Now we're going through some stretch routines before bed. Tomorrow at eleven he'll rise into the arena. I remember the feeling very well. I know Nolan will enjoy it.

Alexandria Paz, Victor of the 83rd Hunger Games

I'm Two's best mentor. That's why I've stuck around for thirty-three years. They can't find anyone good enough to replace me. I was supposed to lead Irene to victory and up my status even more, but apparently that's not happening this year.

"Just get some rest," I say, "Try not to die in the bloodbath. Give Cendko some space, since he actually stands a chance."

"Thank you for all the help," Kiara says. I can tell she's genuine. I have nothing against her; she seems like a pretty cool girl. She just shouldn't be here.

"Good luck," I say before heading to bed.

Wyatt Neti, Victor of the 82nd Hunger Games

Mugger doesn't want to play chess with me, so I pretty much let him do whatever he wants. He chooses to whip out a guitar and sing in his room all night. Every few hours he'll scream for an Avox to bring him more chips, but that's about it. At least he's living live to the fullest before his inevitable death.

It's my job to help tributes succeed, but I can't say I won't be happy when Mugger goes. Maybe next year will turn out better.

Tilapia Mahi, Victor of the 113th Hunger Games

Lusi has done everything she can. Now she just needs a pep talk and some sleep. I walk in her room after the interviews expecting the confident girl I'm used to seeing. But instead she looks like she's about to puke.

"Were you nervous?" she asks.

"Nervous as hell," I reply, "Chocolate helps. It'll get your mind off of it."

We eat chocolate together for a while, then turn in for the night. I hope she makes it out. Maybe Lusi will replace me.

Jeremy Falkner, Victor of the 91st Hunger Games

"NO!" I scream, punching a wall, "You can't do this. This is bullshit."

"I'm not letting them kill people!" Dorian roars.

"You can't make a difference!" I exclaim, "You're just prolonging the inevitable for people like Catherine! Plus, they'll kill you!"

"I can live with that," he says.

"You won't live at all," is all I say.

Alexandra "Sasha" Smith, Victor of the 111th Hunger Games

Venus is a smart girl, so I have faith in her. If she can keep her head in the game, she stands a good chance. Vaska is a wildcard, but I believe Venus can use him to her advantage. When the time is right, a small drop of berry juice will do the trick.

"What's your bloodbath plan?" I ask.

"Stick with Vaska," she says, "I'll keep up the innocent angle. Vaska wants to kidnap someone in case his blood cravings get worse, so we'll probably grab one of the Tens."

I shudder. "Alright. Just stop things if they get out of hand."

Tomer Dabney, Victor of the 104th Hunger Games

"Just hide and kill," I tell Hideki, "Jump from alliance to alliance and take them out one by one. Poisoning food is your best bet, since you can blame it on the cook."

"Okay," he says.

"And don't be nervous," I say, taking a deep swig of brandy, "You've got this in the bag."

"Easy for you to say," he says, muttering quietly.

Styla Wickerson, Victor of the 80th Hunger Games

Children are such a gift. Watching Calico on stage made me feel warm inside. She's like my own daughter. My cats are my children, but it's nice to have a human child, even if it's only for a short while. Calico sweetly wishes me goodnight and closes her bedroom door.

I wander the halls of the Training Center, contemplating the Games. Calico stands a chance if she sticks with her allies. I think she can come home to me.

I can't lose another child.

Jason Greeville, Victor of the 88th Hunger Games

My sister is working with Avery, so I decide to watch some old Games' tapes with Matt. We analyze good and bad strategies, mainly the district partner rivalries. We see how they handled things in the bloodbath, and slowly begin to form a good strategy for Matt. We assume he's alone, since there's always a chance Darren will betray him.

"I think you're all set," I say.

"Thanks for all the help," says Matt.

"No problem," I say, "It's my job."

Samuel Pollock, Victor of the 79th Hunger Games

I vaguely remember this "Cathy" girl, but it feels like the Reaping was a thousand years ago. How much time has really passed? Where am I? I thought Cathy would be dead by now. Maybe I'm dead, and she's in the afterlife with me.

She told me to call her Cathy, since her real name was too hard for my slurring mouth to pronounce. What a sweet child.

"Let's play dress up!" she says, "Except I'll do the dressing up. I don't want to dress you myself. Okay Sammy? Hey, I could do your makeup!"

For the rest of the evening, Cathy touches my face a whole lot. I wonder what she's doing. All I remember is the sweet tang of wine dripping down my throat.

John Burke, Victor of the 108th Hunger Games

Darren is a pretty cool dude. I like how he's doing this for his family, and I sincerely hope he wins. He's so humble and kind, and I know he'd be a good father. Technically he already cares for his siblings.

"Good luck," I say.

"Thanks," he says, "Help Tarren if I die. She needs the money."

"I promise I'll do everything I can," I tell him.

Coal Wiseman, Victor of the 78th Hunger Games

"Thanks for everything," Sunny says, "I still don't know how truthful you're being, but I do feel a little better."

"That's good!" I say, smiling, "Now win this thing!"

She smiles, shaking her head slowly. "We both know that won't happen. Just tell my family I love them."

We cry together. I wish I could go into the Games in her place.

Sorry if this sucks. I'm not editing it because I really want to get a few more short chapters done today. This chapter isn't that important, anyways, and I don't think you care if there's spelling mistakes in such a short chapter. Please point out mistakes so I can fix them. I'm sure there's a bunch of "it and is" and "me and my" switch ups, since I tend to do that a lot when I type fast.

I would run it through Grammarly, but then I'd have to do all twelve POV's separate. It deletes the lines in between POVs when I do it all at once, and I'm too lazy to rebold and add lines again.

I'll be doing Into the Tubes and Countdown for sure, and MAYBE the bloodbath if you're extremely lucky. I get really excited, as you can tell. That's why I'm updating at the speed of light. I'm not trying to rush, I just literally get jittery and can't focus on anything else when the bloodbath is this close. So you might get three more chapters today. Who knows.
