2nd Hunger Games
Winner: Topaz District 1
After the 1st Hunger Games, the districts were left distraught and disbelieving but the Capitol were left wanting more. Therefore it was decided to keep the Hunger Games going and the Quarter Quell's were written by the President so future Presidents would never forget how important the Hunger Games were. But this outraged the districts, who weren't aware there would be more than one Hunger Games yet the reminder of tesserae quickly quietened them as it had been a bad year for the harvest in District 9 and 11.
At the reaping the chosen tributes went up to the platform with fewer protests than last year. One particular protest was from the 12 year old girl from District 3, the first 12 year old there had been in the Games. Her name was Tina and she caused a catastrophe during the 3 days of training when she threw herself off the Training Building to avoid competing in the Games. However she survived with two broken legs and arms that the Capitol could easily fix. But what if she had died? There wouldn't have been a girl tribute from District 3. To avoid tributes ever trying to kill themselves again, the Capitol used forcefields on the Training Building. They also made sure that no tribute would come to harm in training by using professionals from the Capitol that the tributes could train on . The tributes from District 2 were looking particularly confident this year because they were the only tributes with mentors and the only ones who could go in prepared so everyone assumed that one of them would win.
The arena was a forest with the Cornucopia in the clearing. The Gamemakers had learnt from last time and has stocked the Cornucopia full with weapons, food, water and other essential supplies to avoid the tributes starving in the first few days like the 1st Games. Like the first games there was a little hesitation from the tributes when the gong sounded but the tributes from District 2 started the bloodbath by going straight to the Cornucopia and grabbing the best weapons before spreading out to attack. Most of the tributes ran when they saw the District 2 tributes but a few of the stronger ones stayed behind to get their own weapons and the bloodbath continued for nearly 2 hours with 8 casualties. There was only one survivor from the bloodbath – Topaz the boy tribute from District 1. He had killed several tributes including both from District 2. As the rest of the tributes had gone to hide in the forest, Topaz had to go and hunt the rest of them down. It took him 4 days but he was helped as some of the other tributes killed each other off but they all knew the main competition was Topaz as he was the only strong tribute remaining and at 18, also the eldest.
When there were only 2 tributes left, the Capitol went 12 hours without blood as the remaining tribute, the girl from District 7, had hidden herself away with plenty of supplies; when the final fight came though, it was bloody and highly entertaining. Both tributes had several weapons and both of them sustained several injuries in the 4 hour fight that followed. In the end Topaz, who had several fingers missing, slit the girls throat and she died shortly after that. Topaz became a hero and after realising how entertaining the Games could be, the Gamemakers now had the challenge of making each year better than the last.
