DAISUKE POV:
Few days passed and the anima did not disturb any of us until one day while we were walking back home, the anima took me and Dale away from the kids. Upon regaining my consciousness, I overheard some people talking about us.
"These two kids here are Sabre and Katana." The man said.
"How could you be so certain that these two kids are them?" Another man asked.
"They are my children and I know that they are those kids." The man replied.
Another life story again huh? I said to myself. But who the hell is Denise? Is Dale alright? And where the hell did the anima brought us this time? I asked myself and looked around.
"Honey, Sabre is awake." The woman in black said.
"Great. Do need something? Or do you need some more rest?" The man asked me.
"Where is my bro—" and I remembered when he said that I have a twin sister. "But where is Katana?" I asked them.
"She's still sleeping." The lady said.
"She will regain her consciousness in a while. I am very certain about that." The man said to me.
When the bystanders left our home, the man introduced himself.
"I am Blade Vermilion. I'm your father." He said.
"Why are you introducing yourself to him? I thought you were certain that these kids are our children?" The lady asked.
"She is Scythe, your mother." Blade continued. "They are our children, darling. I am certain about that. But they were from a different parallel universe." He added.
"You mean, our real kids already died?" Scythe asked.
"No. They're alive. They're alive inside their bodies." Blade said and pointed to us.
"I know that both of you have your own names, right?" Blade asked.
"Yes, we do have. I am Daisuke Valmonte and that is my brother Dale." I replied.
"But you could never use those names in your stay here in Panem." Blade said.
"We could live by the names of your children, father." I replied.
"You and Katana are sixteen years of age so you are qualified to join the 73rd Hunger Games. Each of the districts in Panem chooses two tributes to join every year." Blade explained.
"One boy and one girl are entitled to be the tribute for each District. Once you win, the district would be prospered but if you lose, we continue to be like this." Scythe said.
"Our district is called District 13. Our district specializes in weaponry and assassination. Your dad is a great Artisan and a well-known bounty hunter." She added.
"Your mom and I met at the early years of the Hunger Games." Blade said.
"She is a well-known bounty hunter as well." He added.
"He was the first to be the victor then I won the following year." Scythe said.
A bell sounded and Katana (Dale) awaken. Everybody went out to the plaza and piled up according to age and gender. A man named Kronos who was the escort of the tributes of 13 drawn a female tribute.
"For this year's Hunger Games, let us start picking first the female tribute." Kronos said and picked a strip of paper.
"The female tribute would be, Katana. Katana Vermilion." He continued.
I heard mother cried but I know she couldn't do something.
"And for the male-" He said but I didn't allowed him to finish his sentence.
"I volunteer as a tribute." I stated.
Everybody gave me a look and said their goodbye. After the ceremony at the plaza, the tributes were given a day to spend with their family. As the night came, mother was very troubled because her beloved twins would be out there participating in the hunger games. Before we leave the house, mother said something.
"May the odds be always in your favor." She said and waved us goodbye.
The following day, all the tributes are gathered in the arena and of course, each of us entered with a bang. I mean, we entered with chariot that signifies each of the districts. After the ceremony, we were contained in a stadium with force fields and stuff so that we could not escape the games. The arena is like a huge forest or sort of.
"Onii-chan. I'm scared." Dale whispered.
"Don't worry. Onii-chan is here for you." I replied.
"Can we at least use our requip magic?" He asked.
"No we can't. We will only use these weapons dad gave us." I said.
We saw that the tributes from District 1are aiming for us so we fight them. I used the third gear of my sabre and it turned into a huge blade and it cut one of the tributes of District 1. Dale shifted the fourth gear of his katana and it became a bow, luckily, the man from District 1 had a couple of arrows left so Dale used it to defend himself from the last tribute from District 1.
The night came and the Capitol flashed the names of the tributes that were unlucky. District 2 has their tributes Blake and Jane, District 4 has their Gil, District 7 still has their Mara and Steel, District 10 has their Drake, District 12 has their Blair and Onyx, and District 13 has me and Dale or should I say, Katana. We rested on the branches and set traps for the people who will attack at night.
The morning rays wake us up and we hide in the trees. We moved swiftly across the trees and hid ourselves beneath its trees. We saw Blake and Jane assaulted Gil and Mara and Steel attacked Drake. Blair and Onyx then assaulted Blake and Jane when District 4's tribute retired from battle. Blair seduced Blake and won the battle while Jane had Onyx single handedly. Jane noticed Katana hiding in the trees and she aimed her Bow at her. I swiftly changed my sabre in to gear 13 and it became a huge shield defending Katana from the arrows of Jane and the battle knives of Blair. Then Katana swiftly moved over Blair's head and gave her a "neck lock" that put her into a deep sleep. Katana used Blair's body to protect herself from Jane. Then again, Katana swiftly moved over Jane's head and gave the girl a "neck lock" that placed her to sleep.
After that we heard the voice of President Snow that there should only be one victor and in order to attain that one victor, one of us must die. I shift my shield into its first gear and it returned in its original form, a sabre. Katana shift bow into its first gear and it returned to its original form, a katana. Then the both of us placed the edges of our weapons on each other's necks and will cut it any time soon. The moment President Snow saw a movement in our weapons, he spoke.
"Behold, the victors of the 73rd Hunger Games. The twins from District 13, Sabre and Katana Vermilion." He announced.
We heard the crowd cheering for us and before we knew it, we were the victors of the 73rd Hunger Games. President Snow accompanied us in his office and told us about the prices our district will receive. After that, we were allowed to go wherever we wanted to, so I decided to go for a hunt while Katana just rested beside the river inside the forest. Katana slept for a while as I hunt for a wild dog or some meat for celebration.
I left Katana sleeping and go deeper into the woods. I found three wild dogs attacking something. I quietly sneaked closer to the dogs and saw a boy in between the three dogs. I decided to save the boy who is around my age. I stabbed one of the dogs and the others attacked me. I swiftly shifted the gear of my sabre into its fifth gear and it became a double edged spear. I stabbed the remaining two dogs with the two edged spear at once. All of the three wild dogs were dead and I gave one of them to the boy who looks like hunting.
"Here, take one of those dogs. Two whole wild dog meats are enough for our family and can sustain us for a week or two." I said to him while assisting him to stand.
"I'm Peeta Mellmark, from District 12." The boy introduced himself.
"I'm Sabre Vermilion. Nice meeting you." I replied.
"You mean one of the victors of this year's hunger games?" He asked with great astonishment.
"Yes. But we can be friends right?" I asked.
"Absolutely how could I say no to the request of my savior?" He replied.
I smiled at him and escorted him outside the forest. Before he left with my gift, he hugged me tightly and pressed his lips to mine.
"Thank you so much. I hope our paths will cross again someday." He said.
"Let us meet again tomorrow, same place and time. I'll wait for you there. I want to know you better." I said to him as he waved his hand and disappeared.
I decided to go back to where I left Katana and wake her up. The both of us carried the wild dogs I've killed for our meal. The moment we've returned to 13, we were so shocked that we dropped the dogs we are carrying. We saw the district was attacked by the Capitol and the houses were burnt down. We hid ourselves together with the dead meat we are carrying and waited for the soldiers to finish burning the whole village. After the soldiers are gone, we hurried to our home and saw it burnt down into ashes. We looked for our parents but we cannot find them. We did not see dead bodies or corpses scattered around the district. Both of us were so devastated in what we are seeing when a familiar voice from the back said: "Congratulations my children. I am so proud of you guys." The voice said. We turned our heads to the voice and we rushed towards him.
"Dad!" The both of us cried in tears.
"You brought us some food." Scythe said.
"Yes, food for our celebration. We are the victors from the currently ended Hunger Games." I replied.
Mom and Dad escorted us to the underground city of District 13. There, we celebrated our victory and rested. The following day Katana and I were forced to leave because we needed to go see Snow at the Capitol. We went there and decided to join the victors' caravan. After the contract signing, we were released again and we just entered the forest. We returned to the quiet place we rested just after the games. I left Katana at the river banks and I proceeded to where I first met Peeta.
"Thank the gods you're alive!" Peeta rushed and hugged me the moment he laid his eyes on me.
"I heard that District 13 was wiped out. I was so worried about you." He added.
"Don't worry too much. An assassin like me is hard to kill." I said and hugged him back.
"Let me introduce you to my twin. Come follow and me." I held his hand and guided him to the river.
"Who is he, Sabre?" She asked me.
"He was the boy I was telling you about. He is Peeta Mellmark." I replied.
"Why are you holding his hands?" Katana asked furiously.
"N-nothing." I replied and Peeta removed his hand.
"Why are both of you blushing?" Katana teased us.
"Just take care in your trip. Just promise me to take care of yourself." Peeta said to me.
"Yup, I promise. I'll return alive for you. Just wait for me here in this area every day until we return." I said to him and pressed my lips into his.
Katana just smiled at us and decided to go for a walk and catch some fish for our dinner. As she walked away, I accompanied Peeta outside the forest. The following morning, we started the victors' tour and bad things happen. The bullet train stopped couple of times, the lights flicker from time to time, and the worst is, the train exploded. Luckily, the both of us can use our force fields to protect ourselves. We hid ourselves deep inside the forest while the soldiers of the Capitol searched for our remains. A day after the incident, Snow announced our death due to the train explosion.
Katana and I returned to the river bank we always find peace and we saw a grieving boy. I hugged him tight and pressed a kiss on his forehead.
"I told you that I would return safe, right?" I said to him.
"B—but the train exploded. I can't help but to think that you are dead." Peeta said while he was crying.
"Assassins can't be just killed by that method." Katana said.
"You go home now and rest. Let us talk about it some other time." I said and planted a kiss in his lips.
"And who is this man?" Said the voice behind us.
"Mom." Katana yelled.
"Just as I expected. Assassins cannot be killed by that kind of explosion." Blade said.
"Mom, dad, this is Peeta Mellmark from twelve. He is my—" I was about to finish my sentence but we heard gun shots not so far from us.
We hid ourselves deeper inside the woods and I introduced Peeta again to my family.
"So he is the lucky guy who caught my boy's eyes." Scythe said sarcastically.
"Don't scare the boy honey." Blade said.
"I should accompany him outside the woods." I said to them.
"Be careful young man." Blade stated.
I nodded then grabbed Peeta and carried him in my back. We travelled across the braches and the soldiers did not notice our presence. I then planted my last kiss in his lips and we parted away. I've returned to the underground district and reported what happened.
The next morning, Katana and I were tasked to deliver the fishing tridents to the Odair Residence at District 4. We travelled across the forests to District 4. We knocked at the Odair's residences and Finnick, one of the victors of District 4 and one of the people who trained us. We were invited to eat breakfast in their place and after, we handed over the tridents and Finnick handed the payment. Finnick then accompanied us at the edge of the forest and we had a tiny chat to catch things up. I mentioned to him about Peeta and he was like, "Really? You have a boyfriend?" He teases me. After that, we parted our ways.
Next, we stopped and delivered some axes and get some lumber to our family friend, the Masons. Johanna opened the doors of their home and asked us to eat lunch. We ate and catch things up then we handed the axes in exchange of lumber. I told her about Peeta and she was so in love with our story.
We set off carrying back the cash and lumber from our trades from our family friends and returned home to the underground district. After giving the lumber and the money to our parents, I decided to hunt for food and see if Peeta is there waiting for me. After I hunted food, I search for Peeta but I did not see him anywhere. I went home lonely because I did not see him that day. I also did not see him a couple of days from now. I am worried about him. Where is he? How is he doing? I missed him so much.
After a while, the anima took us away without seeing or bidding my farewell to Peeta Mellmark. I don't know when will we come back but definitely I'll return for him.
