We are here. We have made it to the finale! With only seven tributes remaining (Kiera, Malinata, Marilla, Jupiter, Lavinia, Otis and Bo) we are about to crown our victor. Let's dive in!


Malinata 'Mal' Minthe, District 2 Female

Day 6

7:34 P.M.

The anthem played over the speakers as me and the other four tributes awaited for the gong to ring.

After the anthem ended, Valentina's voice shrieked through the speakers.

"Good luck tributes and may the odds be ever in your favor! May the best tribute win!" She says after that the gong rang.

I ran immediately toward Lavinia ans stung at her, slicing her cheek.

She falls to the floor, crawling towards her weapon she dropped.

"Please don't do this!" She cried.

"I'm sorry I have to." I closed my eyes amd swung down at her.

Boom.

I pulled out my sword and ran towards Bo and Jupiter as I took a swing down, slicing Bo's arm. She let out a scream as she felt the pain.

Jupiter swung a candy rock from the floor and hit me in the face, catching me off guard.

I fell to the floor with a thud and Jupiter grabbed my sword, which I dropped.

"This is for Lavinia." Hw growled at me and lowered the sword in my chest. That's when my light went dark.

Boom.


Otis Lavash, District 9 Male

Day 6

7:40 P.M.

I let out a scream as K ran around with the knife in hand. Trying to avoid everyone at all costs.

"Bo! Run!" I hollered at her as the girl from one Kiera, waaa sneaking up behind her.

No turned around quickly enough and avoided being killed, but a throwing knife stuck out her arms. She let out another big scream and fell to the floor.

I ran to help Bo, but that's when I felt a sharp pain in the back of my neck. I tumbled to the floor as I pulled out a knife it my neck.

The girl from four, Marilla, stood there as the darkness began to consume me.


Marilla Ragna, District 4 Female

Day 9

7:42 P.M.

I watched in the distance as Malinata was killed..After I killed the boy from nine, I was shocked for sure, I did feel bad for killing such a young boy, but before I could move the arena began to violently shake.

The arena panels began to break into pieces, crumbling down upon us. One large piece nearly crushed me to death, but I moved before I could be injured.

The force field broke with a loud bang from what I thought was lightning times ten thousand.

Covering my ears I realized this was no arena event; something has actually gone wrong.

Valentina's voice came on to prove my point. The live feeds cut off and all of Panem were wondering what the hell happened.

"Attention tributes, due to these new circumstances, you will all be rescued by the order of President Harma. However, one of you still needs to be crowned a victor.".

"What?" Everyone including myself screamed.

"By the power invested in me...by me…Marilla Ragna, you are the victor of the 31st Annual Hunger Games!" She shrieked.

I stood there, absolutely shocked, confused, happy? This was not the victory I dreamed of. I closed my eyes and saw all the people I hurt in these games, my allies, and the people I killed. These games have taught me to work as a team, and I think I've done a pretty good job at that. My actions in the games were not right, but it is what I was trained to do. I reopened my eyes as if they were new, looking up at the smoke filled sky. I may have won and escaped death, but the blood will always be stained on my hands, forever and evermore.

The hovercraft came down and gathered me, Kiera" Bo, and Jupiter and got us into the hovercraft and drove us out of there.

I looked down at the arena as it collapsed, being thankful to survive not only as a tribute, but as a victor.

The blood will always be stained on your hands. Oh Marilla, when I first received your form l have to admit I did not like you, however as time went by I realized something. You have always been trained to fight back emotions and be a killing machine, but after you killed Otis you started to experience emotions. The games also taught you to work together when you thought you couldn't. That's when I fell in love with you, and why you survived the arena and were declared the Victor of the 31st Annual Hunger Games! Thank you rising-balloons for submitting our victor!

1st Place, Survivor of the 31st Annual Hunger Games: Bo Wright, District 10 Female [Kills: 1 [Mathias]

Bo!! Now when I first received you I knew I had one of my survivors right away. You reminded me much of me when I was younger, how I understood to work with others. After you killed Mathias you changed a lot, and you stayed alongside Otis until his death. You are a true survivor and always will be. Thank you Neb for submitting Bo!

1st Place, Survivor of the 31st Annual Hunger Games: Kiera Vallejo, District 1 Female [Kills: 2 [Lavinia, D1M]

Kiera my beautiful princess, you did it. At first you were very arrogant but you always didn't mean to be. Deep down you were nice, and I'm sure i've shown that this story. You did what you had to, don't be upset about that. You are and always will be a survivor. Thank you Shadow for submitting Kiera!

1st Place, Survivor of the 31st Annual Hunger Games: Jupiter Maxson, District 5 Male [Kills: 1 [Malinata)]

Jupiter! You went from the little awkward kid to a warrior. You averaged Lavinia's death and grew so much this story and it was a good show to viewers being awkward doesn't make you any different. You are a fierce survivor! Thank you Zack for submitting Jupiter!

Thank you everyone for reading! Aftermath chapter will be posted later!
