19. 18th Hunger Games - Misty Forest

THE 18TH HUNGER GAMES

This year is an unlucky year for District 3. Just a few weeks before the Reapings, President Snow gifts them special, advanced technology to further their research. However, the technology malfunctions dramatically the next day, killing hundreds of workers and injuring even more people. A large riot starts outside the factories, and many others are killed in the rush and anger. The Capitol decide to ignore the riots and continue as if nothing has happened.

Soon, the Mayor of District 3 voices a complaint to the Capitol about the multiple explosions and crowds ransacking the factories. Finally, the Peacekeepers manage to execute most of the rioters, and while survivors go into hiding, the Capitol help rebuild the factories and the managers cut the wages of the rebelling workers.

Meanwhile, everyone is nervous about this year's Games after the terror and shock that followed the unveiling of the 17th Games' arena.

THE LANDSCAPE

The tributes rise up into a thick pine forest, covered in neck-high mist – there is little to be seen. In fact, the tributes are practically blind from the neck up, which means they could be walking into all kinds of traps. The tributes are obviously disconcerted, but try not to show it.

THE CORNUCOPIA

The Cornucopia stands on its own raised platform, high above the mist with a civilized stairway curving up to the entrance. Inside, there are weapons, but only bow and arrows, crossbows and throwing knives, along with a single dart gun. Food is plentiful, along with water.

THE GAMES

The Bloodbath begins slowly, as the tributes cautiously step into the mist. After a few seconds, King sprints across the clearing towards the Cornucopia, grabbing the dart gun inside and shooting down Quill, Oaford and Wyatt within a minute.
Panic takes over and the other tributes try to escape, as King directs his weapon at the other weaker teens. He kills Spudd and Rhona just before Adam comes up behind him and stabs him in the back.

The Careers don't seem to be in an alliance this year, as Adam's first kill has pitted them against each other. The tall boy steals King's dart gun and runs into the Cornucopia. Two more tributes die – this time Klara and Tilly. The Bloodbath ends with eight tributes dead.

Throughout Day 1, the tributes move around the arena, most looking for shelter, food and water. However, a lucky few have managed to get supplies at the Cornucopia. The seperated Careers hunt down other tributes, each working independently. In the evening, Griffa finds and kills Polli, ending the day with nine deaths and fifteen tributes left.

24th – Quill Hamilton, District 8 female

23rd – Oaford Washe, District 10 male

22nd – Wyatt Walsh, District 5 male

21st – Spudd Darkfield, District 11 mlae

19th – King Cervantes, District 1 male

18th – Klara MacQuinnen, District 3 female

17th – Tilly Melloron, District 6 female

16th – Polli Hesleden, District 5 female

Day 2 dawns with a tribute dead from a hidden bear trap in the mist: Albatross. At the same time, Nelli and Harr form an alliance and begin to search for food. Meanwhile, Sparkle hunts down and attacks Taylor, killing him. No more deaths happen on the second day. Rowanne is the first tribute to find a natural water source.

15th – Albatross Ebbings, District 4 male

14th – Taylor Ferrell, District 8 male

Day 3 has no deaths, and surprisingly most tributes have supplies such as food and water, along with weapons. However, Bolt is in trouble, since he has been stung badly by a sudden attack from tracker-jackers, and is hallucinating severely. Cooper must also find water quickly unless he wants to die. Another alliance is formed, this time between Jacc, Sunshine and Harvey.

Day 4 comes with only one dehydration death: Cooper, and with Bolt dead of stings. Griffa and Sparkle meet up, and they battle it out before Sparkle is eventually over-powered by the stronger girl.

Meanwhile, Nelli and Harr are having trouble finding water. The three-piece alliance (Jacc, Sunshine and Harvey) visit the Cornucopia to find weapons. However, they discover that there are only long-range weapons, and leave with some food.

13th – Cooper Kaylock, District 6 male

12th – Bolt Eastmond, District 3 male

11th – Sparkle Wellerton, District 1 female

Day 5 comes with ten tributes remaining. Nelli and Harvey suffer from lack of water, while Adam is chased by tracker-jackers. He doesn't escape, and is marked as the only death of that day.

Griffa seems to be hiding out, lurking and looking for other tributes. However, she doesn't make any kills. Meanwhile, Oceania builds a shelter, and is attacked by Rowanne. She escapes, of course, but Rowanne takes her camp.

10th – Adam Marshell, District 2 male

Day 6 comes with nine tributes left: Griffa, Oceania, Rowanne, Apple, Jacc, Sunshine, Harvey, Nelli and Harr.

The day passes without event, as Nelli and Harr struggle to feed themselves and Griffa visits the Cornucopia for a new weapon. She takes a bow-and-arrow, then camps inside the large structure.

Day 7 dawns with another death: Oceania of dehydration. However, no other deaths occur. The three-piece alliance get into an argument, and finally decide to split up and search for other tributes. However, they soon become lost.

9th – Oceania Bowers, District 4 female

Day 8 brings a heavy shower of rain, and Apple is trapped by a wire trap hidden in the mist. She dies slowly of blood loss. Meanwhile, Sunshine is attacked by tracker-jackers and runs into Rowanne's camp, screaming and writhing as they sting her. Rowanne freezes, then runs into the forest, leaving the younger girl to die.

8th – Apple Heights, District 11 female

7th – Sunshine Farlington, District 10 female

Day 9 comes, with only six tributes remaining: Griffa, Rowanne, Jacc, Harvey, Nelli and Harr. There are no deaths that day, but Nelli and Harr do suffer badly from starvation.

Day 10 starts with a bang as tracker-jacker mutts are released around the arena, pushing the remaining tributes towards the centre of the forest. Griffa is the only one not affected by the release, as she is hidden in the Cornucopia. As Nelli and Harr stumble into the misty clearing, she wastes no time in springing up and shooting an arrow at Nelli's head. However, it misses and hits her ally instead. Nelli screams and tries to run, but Griffa shoots her down too.

The others – Rowanne, Jacc and Harvey – are all in the forest, but don't know where they are. All three have abandoned their camps and are completely lost.

6th – Harr Kelse, District 12 male

5th – Nelli Cynley, District 12 female

Day 11 brings a bloody showdown between Harvey and Jacc, the former allies. Harvey is armed with a sharpened stick, while Jacc has nothing. Being also younger than his enemy, Jacc is at a big disadvantage. He dodges the older boy's blows and stabs for a long time, but finally the lengthy fight concludes as Harvey sends his weapon through the weaker tribute's stomach.

4th – Jacc Collier, District 7 male

Day 12 is the finale of the Games, with the Final Three decided: Griffa, Rowanne and Harvey. The Gamemakers decide to bring the two tributes to Griffa by announcing that the Cornucopia will be restocked with supplies. Griffa hears the announcement, packs some food and water and escapes into the forest, hoping that Rowanne and Harvey will fight it out.

She is in luck. The two strong tributes enter the clearing, and immedietely initiate their fight, determined to get a step closer to home. Rowanne has only her bare fists, but still manages to evade Harvey's stick for a few minutes before she finally finds herself pinned against the wall of the stone Cornucopia platform. Harvey drives his weapon through her head and looks around for Griffa.

Meanwhile, the Career decides to go back and fight it out like she has been taught to. She runs out into the Cornucopia clearing, shouting at her opponent. Armed with a bow, she has the upper-hand. As Harvey turns, she shoots an arrow into his head, and ends the 18th Hunger Games.

THE VICTOR

Griffa Barr – District 2 female

THE AFTERMATH

The younger sister of Laria Barr, Victor of the 3rd Hunger Games, Griffa was District 2's third Victor and was welcomed warmly by her District when she arrived back home. As the second Victor in her family, she developed an arrogant, slightly condescending personality, and soon became disliked by many. She was also one of the smartest Victors, which meant she knew how to manipulate people to get what she wanted, when she wanted it. In later years, she withdrew from society and turned to alcohol when her sister died.

FAMILY INTERVIEW

Laria Barr, the 3rd Victor of the Hunger Games, smiles politely for the cameras. "I am very proud of her," she says, while their parents nod, though not smiling. "It's very special to have two Victors in the family," Laria continues brightly. "It's a great honor." Her parents do not wish to speak.

A/N: Griffa's Victory! I thought this would be a nice idea…thoughts?
