### The Games

#### Day 1

The 14 remaining tributes were placed in the center of the Arena in a circle surrounding a pile multiple weapons (there was no Cornucopia, as it was still early in the history of the Hunger Games), no food or water supplies were included in the pile. The District 2 male tribute Marcus, who had escaped and disappeared during the rebel bombings of the Arena, had been captured and strung up by steel poles in the air at the main entrance to the Arena and left to hang from his manacles, still alive and badly beaten.

At the sound of the gong, most of the tributes ran for the tunnels which had been caused by the rebel bombings. Some of the stronger tributes; Coral, Tanner, Jessup and Reaper ran forward for the weapons but quickly ran away once they had got what they needed. Reaper was the only tribute to stay out in the open, armed with a pitchfork and a long knife. After seeing that none of the other tributes stayed to fight, Reaper climbed into a nearby stand to begin his hunt for the other tributes.

Later in the day, Lamina emerged from one of the tunnels and made her way over to the weapon pile taking a knife and a small ax. She then went over to the poles in which Marcus still hung from and began to climb up them. Once she reached the top and balanced herself on the beams she spoke to Marcus, possibly apologizing, before driving her axe into his neck three times, killing him. As reward for showing strength, Lamina was then gifted a sponsor of a bottle of water.

As the afternoon progressed, only a few tributes could be spotted leaving their hiding places momentarily before disappearing again. Reaper remained in the stands and Lamina a top of of the beams, eventually she hacked away at the restraints still holding Marcus in the air sending his body falling to the ground. Lamina then received another sponsor, this time being a slice of bread. Lamina used her belt rope to sturdily fasten herself to the beam and then rested.

Circ and Teslee eventually appeared out of the barricade and moved over to Marcus’s body were the broken drones lay. The pair began examining the pieces of the drones, fiddling with the wires causing the lights to blink. Circ and Teslee then received a sponsor of some water and bread before vanishing back into the barricade with the drones.

Reaper then appeared from one of the tunnels carrying his District partner Dill in his arms. Dill was most likely suffering from tuberculosis as she began coughing up blood once Reaper placed her down. Reaper went back into the barricade, leaving Dill by herself. She received two water bottle sponsors but she was too weak to even acknowledge them. Treech then appeared from one of the tunnels, took the bottles of water and quickly retreated back into the tunnels again.

As evening approached, Dill started to convulse and spray blood from her mouth, before dying.

Later that night, Capitol citizen and mentor to Marcus, Sejanus Plinth, snuck into the Arena to sit by and cover Marcus’s body in bread crumbs, a District 2 custom to wish the dead good passing into the afterlife. Corniolanus Snow was sent in to retrieve Sejanus discretely without alerting the tributes. Sejanus and Corniolanus attempt to take Marcus’s body back with them but are forced to leave it as Bobbin, Coral, Mizzen and Tanner appear and attack them. Coriolanus whacks Bobbin in the head with a plank of wood which kills him. Coriolanus and Sejanus manage to escape the Arena, keeping the tributes still trapped inside.

Tributes dead: Marcus, Dill and Bobbin.

#### Day 2

In the afternoon of the second day, Sol begins to climb onto the bleachers at the furthest end of the Arena. Coral, Mizzen and Tanner whom have formed an alliance, chase her down and Coral spears Sol through the throat with a trident.

Lucy Gray is then chased out from one of the tunnels by a rabid Jessup. It is assumed he contracted rabies by bitten by either a rat or a raccoon during his time in the monkey enclosure in the Capitol Zoo. Jessup corners Lucy Gray up the remains of a concession stand. Due to the rabies, Jessup cannot stand water so Lucy Gray is sponsored numerous bottles of water which when the drop near her and Jessup, Jessup enters a frenzy and falls from the stands and the sound of numerous bones breaking are heard as he falls and hits the ground.

Lucy Gray comforts Jessup as he dies telling him that he can ‘sleep’ now. She then takes some of the remaining bottles of water to hydrate herself and then uses some of the water to clean Jessup‘s face and she closes his eyes with a handkerchief given to her before the Games by her mentor Coriolanus Snow. She receives a sponsor of bread and cheese, collects them and exits into a near tunnel when she sees Reaper approaching. Reaper lets Lucy Gray run into the tunnels as he takes what water bottles remain and returns to the stands.

Tributes dead: Sol and Jessup
