The Prologue. A section in the book called The Blood Games Story - Written by Patrick Roseforge.


President Alexander Roseforge walks to the balcony. The video cameras from all different angles watch him as he comes out. The Capitolites from below him, cheered his name, and the District inhabitants all glared at their televisions in hate.

There was a war. A foolish one, one where the Capitol failed to do its best, where it became corrupt, and the Districts are to blame as well. If only they waited, the Capitol would have been fixed, or at least less corrupt. However, opportunists used the District's growing discontent and led them to failure. The blame is on all sides in the Great Rebellion, but what came after, revenge was the only necessity.

After all, the Capitol won.

Alexander coughed into the microphone. Getting the attention of the whole nation, and everyone waited. "The war is over," he began, and many cheered. He only stated a fact. He didn't sound pleased, but that's because he was unhappy that there was a war in the first place. "The Districts failed to bring us down. The Capitol still stands. And it's better than ever." More cheering. He waited until the cheering lessened. "Now, everyone here wants the Twelve Districts punished. While the refugees from Thirteen are returning to the mainland since they managed to destroy themselves with their own nukes, the other Districts must pay. Myself, as well as others in the government cabinet, have decided-

-The Hunger Games."

More cheering went on in the Capitol as the President went on. He listed what will happen. And vengeance will be fulfilled. It was amazing how happy many in the Capitol cheered when the President went on. I should know. I was one of them.

Back then, I was so happy when the President, my own brother, picked me to be the Head Gamemaker. The one and only. Patrick Roseforge.
