13th Hunger Games

The **13th Hunger Games** took place in 13 ATT. The victor was 16-year-old Annette Caspum from District 7. This was Vulcan Ring's first year as Head Gamemaker, after the murder of Volumnia Gaul. However, her death was staged by Coriolanus Snow as a laboratory accident using muttations.

After the boring 12th Hunger Games, Gamemakers set out to find a more exciting location for the 13th Games. A cliffside coastal forest in District 7 was determined to suffice. The site featured an old logging camp with a sawmill and cabin, along with an old lighthouse and lightkeeper's cabin.

## The Arena

As they had for the two previous Games, Gamemakers surveyed Panem for a suitable location for the 13th Games. The selected location for the arena was a coastal forest in District 7. It featured various landmark locations including a pine forest, a sawmill and logging camp, a lightkeeper's cabin & old, worn lighthouse that remained lit. Shipwreck ruins and a cave were some of the more peculiar additions to the arena.

### The Wall

The location was sectioned off by a large wall constructed by Gamemakers and patrolled by Peacekeepers during the games.

### Pine Forest

The pine forest was dark and brooding, but contained wildlife that could be hunted and various places to hide. Thick underbrush, dead trees, rocks, and tree stumps could also be found here.

### Sawmill

A sawmill and logging camp could be found in the upper right corner of the arena. Here, a logging operation had been abandoned and drew Gamemakers in with the exciting prospect of how the tributes would interact with the site. Logging tools could be found here, providing additional tools and weapons aside from the cornucopia. The logging camp was littered with stumps of trees long ago cut down. An old crane remained out behind the camp that had been used to load logs onto trucks.

### Cornucopia

The Cornucopia was in the center of the arena surrounded by trees to the north and the cliff edge to the south. Much like the 11th Hunger Games, the cornucopia for the 12th Games contained weapons, first-aide kits, and water bottles. Food had to be obtained by hunting, scavenging, or through sponsorships. Water had to be obtained through the water bottles, from sponsors, or through the boiling of sea water.

### Beach

An old, worn staircase led from the forest down the cliff to the beach. A cave was in the cliffside, west of the stairs that led to the beach. The beach was littered with stones and driftwood. Shipwreck ruins were found on the left side of the beach.

### Lightkeeper's Cabin

An old cabin that used to be home to the keeper of the lighthouse was still standing on the beach. The cabin, worn and dilapidated overtime, had holes in the roof and had become musty. However, the structure could still serve as a decent place of shelter. A path led between the cabin and the old, worn lighthouse that remained lit.

### Lighthouse

Much like the lightkeeper's cabin, the lighthouse itself had been worn overtime. The staircase ascending to the top of the lighthouse was rotted and unstable. The lighthouse leaked, creaked, groaned, and moved in the wind. However, the light atop the lighthouse remained lit.

## Before the Games

### July 3rd - Reaping Day

Reaping Day took place July 3rd, once again celebrated as a holiday in the Capitol and mandatory for all citizens in the Districts, but seen as a terrifying and somber day in the Districts. The reapings, the selection-by-lottery of the 24 tributes, took place as it had for the previous 11 years. However, this is the earliest known Games that tributes trained beforehand for the Games as District 2 had began to prepare more fit tributes for the Games, wanting to win the bragging rights and extra food parcels from the eventual victor. Tributes from each district were reaped as follows:

### July 4th - Welcome to the Capitol

* Despite arguments from mentors and Gamemakers in the previous Games for better living conditions for the tributes, tributes were still kept at the Capitol Zoo.
* Tributes were transported to the Capitol via cattle car, then put in trucks and driven to the Capitol Zoo. Tributes were treated especially harsh under new Head Gamemaker Vulcan Ring. His twin children, Apollo and Diana, famously died during the rebel bombing in the 10th Games.
* Like the previous three years, the Capitol Zoo was used to hold and display tributes. Again, tributes were displayed in their District pairs in separate enclosures.
	+ The displays that housed the rainbow snake muttations and the golden viper muttations from the 10th Hunger Games and the creeping crickets from the 11th Hunger Games remained. Once again, the muttation from the previous games was put on display and the cave panther from the 12th Hunger Games was given an enclosure near the other two muttations.
* Once again, tributes were vaccinated for various diseases/viruses. Tributes were also fed daily but they were often yelled at, beaten, or intimidated by Peacekeepers, all at the encouragement of Mr. Ring.

### July 5th - Meeting the Mentors

* After the 12th Hunger Games, victor Cornelius North suggested to Gamemaker Coriolanus Snow that he mentor the District 1 tributes in future Games. The idea was brought to fruition by the former. Claiming the idea as his own, he also secured other victors such as Isla Rhodes and Reaper Ash as mentors for Districts 4 and 11, respectively.
	+ Districts without victors were mentored by Victors from other Districts. These past Victors had all been awarded homes in their Districts' Victor's Village and awarded the full reward of being Victors. Two Victors, Brutus Pine (District 1 - 3rd Hunger Games) and Reyna Marshall (District 2 - 4th Hunger Games) had already died prior to these Games.
* The mentors for these Games were as follows:

* Mentors with a (#) denotes this Victor is from another District but mentored that District due to a lack of Victors.
	+ Mentors were allowed to start discussing the Games with their tributes.
	+ These meetings took place in interrogation-like rooms with cameras to film all sessions.
* A TV special aired live that evening with Vulcan Ring and the 10 mentors. Lucky Flickerman interviewed the new Head Gamemaker about the new mentoring system and asked the Victors about their excitement. Only a few actually expressed excitement, including Cornelius North and Garrick Blanchett.
* Mr. Ring revealed that mentoring had overall remained the same, while the drone technology had been improved and mentors could now share funds with one another.

### July 6th-9th - Mentor/Tribute Preparation Sessions

* In the days following the interviews, mentors continued to meet with their assigned tributes to strategize and provide guidance. The tension between Vulcan Ring's harsh methods and the tributes' desire for better treatment escalated during these sessions. Mentors found themselves walking a fine line between offering valuable advice and navigating the unpredictable temperaments of the Head Gamemaker.
* Coriolanus Snow, who had gained influence over the mentoring process, closely monitored the interactions, ensuring that the tributes remained in a constant state of unease. The Capitol's cruel treatment of the tributes persisted, as Mr. Ring encouraged aggression and ruthlessness in the mentors' approach.

### July 10th-12th - Back at the Zoo and More Media Appearances

* Like previous years, some tributes showed off in their enclosures, captivating audiences.
	+ Champ Ferro, Lake Perkins, and Ziti Voltari were all physically strong and showed off their strength.
	+ Denali Rayle sang songs, much to his District partner's annoyance.
	+ Boone Suadero told stories and mostly made audiences laugh.
* A special tribute parade was organized for July 12th, featuring the tributes donned in themed outfits that represented the industries of their respective districts. Tributes were forced into outfits by Gamemakers, shackeled, and led around the zoo while citizens gathered and watched. Portions of the parade were televised. The Capitol audience watched with mixed reactions, some delighting in the creative displays while others relished in the discomfort of the tributes and their treatment like cattle. Vulcan Ring, ever eager to maintain a spectacle, ordered the tributes to engage in brief, scripted interactions during the parade, injecting an extra layer of tension and unpredictability.
* A few tributes were reluctant to cooperate but had seen the brutality in previous years and heard rumors of rebellious tributes being executed.

### July 13th - The 13th Hunger Games: A Close Look at Our Tributes

* A live TV special aired, hosted by Lucky Flickerman, providing viewers with an in-depth look at each tribute. The tributes showcased their talents, with varying degrees of success. Some, like Champ Ferro (District 1 Male), demonstrated combat skills, while others, such as Claudia Ross (District 8 Female), showcased more subtle talents like storytelling.
* Cornelius North (District 1), now a mentor, spoke about the challenges of guiding his tributes to victory. He emphasized the importance of strategy, resilience, and adaptability in the arena. The Capitol audience, captivated by the charismatic victor, found renewed interest in the upcoming Games.

### July 14th - Tributes Transported to the Arena

* On the morning of the 11th, the tributes were transported to the coastal forest arena via train. The Capitol made the journey as uncomfortable as possible for the tributes, as they were crammed into freight cars and subjected to harsh conditions. Vulcan Ring, relishing in the tributes' discomfort, saw the journey as an opportunity to break their spirits further.
* That night, mentors and Gamemakers set up a temporary Control Center at a Peacekeeper Outpost in District 7. Tributes slept in the freight car.

## The Games

### July 15th - The Games Begin (Day 1)

* Upon arrival at the arena, the tributes were escorted from the Peacekeeper Outpost outside the arena wall to their starting positions at the Cornucopia.
* They were led through the wall entrance, along the edge of the forest and they were afforded a partial view of the surroundings.
* To their left, the dense pine forest loomed dark and brooding, offering potential hiding spots and hunting grounds. The thick underbrush, dead trees, rocks, and tree stumps hinted at the challenges that awaited them within.
* To their right, the cliffside opened up, revealing a breathtaking panorama of the ocean below. The beach stretched out along the shoreline, and the worn lighthouse stood as a distant silhouette against the horizon. The crashing waves, the beach, and the distant lighthouse were visible, but the tributes couldn't discern every detail of the arena yet.
* As they took their positions, the tributes were again ordered to wear their dog tags throughout the Games, serving as a means for mentors to locate them and deploy sponsor support. The cornucopia, situated at the center of the arena, contained crucial supplies, and tributes were warned that water had to be sourced from the provided bottles, sponsorships, or by boiling seawater.
* Tributes were instructed to wait for the cannon sounding to begin. A countdown began at 30 seconds.
	+ Tributes were warned if they tried to leave their designated platform around the cornucopia before the cannon sounded, a Peacekeeper stationed on the wall would shoot them.
* The countdown began and Kane Wellington (District 8 Male) made a run for it. The Gamemakers were true to their word and a sniper shot him as he ran toward the cornucopia. Back in the Capitol, this again outraged spectators. The District 8 mentor, Miller Parsons, argued with Gamemakers over the decision. Other mentors remarked there needed to be a more efficient way to dissuade tributes from running before the cannon sounded.
* The countdown continued as several tributes trembled in fear over Kane's death.
* The cannon finally sounded and several tributes made a run for the cornucopia supplies.
* 9 tributes died in the initial bloodbath violence in the first 20 minutes of the Games.
	+ Tam Curtis (District 10 Female): Tam Curtis was killed by Boone Suadero (District 10 Male) with a large machete. During the chaotic rush for supplies at the Cornucopia, Boone spotted Tam attempting to grab a backpack. He swiftly closed in on her with the large machete, delivering a powerful and fatal blow as she tried to defend herself.
	+ Carmine Sparrow (District 2 Female): Carmine Sparrow was killed by Lake Perkins (District 4 Male) with a trident. During the chaotic rush for supplies at the Cornucopia, Lake spotted Carmine attempting to grab a weapon. He skillfully wielded his trident, striking Carmine and leading to her demise.
	+ Olivia Boysen (District 11 Female): Olivia Boysen was killed by Champ Ferro (District 1 Male) with a sword. In a swift and brutal encounter, Champ, displaying his combat prowess, clashed with Olivia and swiftly overpowered her, delivering a fatal blow with his sword.
	+ Jayda Weiss (District 3 Female): Jayda Weiss was killed by Magnus Hatch (District 2 Male) with a sword. Magnus, his brute force, encountered Jayda near the outskirts of the Cornucopia. He engaged in a fierce confrontation, ultimately overpowering her with a lethal swing of his sword.
	+ Kiah Jasper (District 12 Female): Kiah Jasper was killed by Champ Ferro (District 1 Male) with a sword. In a swift and brutal encounter, Champ, displaying his combat prowess, clashed with Kiah and swiftly overpowered her, delivering a fatal blow with his sword.
	+ Alby Ravencross (District 12 Male): Alby Ravencross was killed by Claudia Ross (District 8 Female) with a sickle. In the midst of the bloodbath, Claudia and Alby engaged in a frantic struggle over a weapon. Claudia managed to gain the upper hand, delivering a fatal blow with the sickle.
	+ Jude Conley (District 7 Male): Jude Conley met his end at the hands of Ziti Voltari (District 9 Female) with a sickle. Ziti, demonstrating her lethal skill with the sickle, engaged in a tense confrontation with Jude near the Cornucopia. She swiftly struck him down, securing her victory in the encounter.
* Some tributes sprinted into the dense pine forest, seeking cover among the shadows and potential hunting grounds. The dark and brooding atmosphere offered both challenges and opportunities for those skilled enough to navigate its terrain.
* Others opted to head towards the northeast side of the arena, past the woods.
* Jaffa Langley (District 11 Male), in a desperate bid to escape the chaos at the Cornucopia, tumbled down the cliffside, sustaining serious injuries.
* The Control Center, set up at the Peacekeeper Outpost, buzzed with activity. Mentors closely monitored the tributes' movements through surveillance cameras, assessing their strategies and conditions. Vulcan Ring, the Head Gamemaker, relished the unfolding drama and sought to introduce new challenges to keep the Games interesting. In the weeks prior to the Games, he had worked with Gamemakers Coriolanus Snow and Nero Albus to develop a new muttation. Now, they prepared to unleash it into the arena.
* Announcements about fallen tributes were delivered to the mentors, serving as a grim reminder of the high stakes for both tributes and their mentors.
* Mentors worked through the day to win over sponsors and prepare to dispatch sponsor gifts.
* As the day passed and night fell, the arena became more ominous. The tributes faced the additional challenge of navigating the darkened landscape, relying on their instincts and the intermittent illumination from the worn lighthouse to guide them. Several had sheltered in the forest, while Annette Caspum (District 7 Female) had made her way to the sawmill. The District 4 tributes, Lake Perkins and Mayvus Harp, had allied together and made their way down the steps to the beach.
* The Control Center continued to track the tributes, and the mentors strategized for the days ahead, anticipating the twists and turns that Vulcan Ring might introduce to heighten the drama of the 13th Hunger Games.

* Jaffa Langley (District 11 Male), who had tumbled down the cliffside during the bloodbath, struggled to stay alive with a broken leg, bruised ribs, several minor cuts and scrapes, and a bad concussion. The harsh environment and his injuries made survival a daunting task. His mentor, Reaper Ash, had a drone deliver pain medicine and water to the tribute. But unsure of the best treatment, Reaper decided to see how Jaffa's injuries progressed.
* The District 4 tributes, Lake Perkins and Mayvus Harp, having allied together, set up a camp in the abandoned shipwreck ruins on the left side of the beach. Equipped with supplies obtained from the Cornucopia, they fortified their position and prepared for the challenges ahead.
* Meanwhile, the District 5 tributes, Baram Hinkle and Fara Musk, found their way to the worn lighthouse on the northeast side of the arena. The dilapidated structure offered potential shelter and strategic advantages. They cautiously explored the area, aware that danger lurked in every corner.

The forest became a battleground where tributes faced not only each other but also the unforgiving environment.
* Acer Timms (District 3 Male) met his demise when he crossed paths with Champ Ferro (District 1 Male) near the wooden stairs that descended to the beach. Champ, wielding his sword with deadly precision, slashed Acer down and, in a gruesome display, severely mutilated the lifeless body.

### July 17th - Day 3

* Jaffa Langley (District 11 Male) continued to struggle for survival with his injuries from the fall. Jaffa had pulled himself up against the cliff side and tried to hide himself in the sand. Reaper Ash, his mentor, kept a watchful eye on Jaffa's condition through the surveillance cameras. The Capitol audience remained invested in Jaffa's plight, wondering if he would overcome the odds or succumb to the harsh environment.
* Annette Caspum (District 7 Female) was seen working on something at the sawmill, but Capitol viewers couldn't discern the details. The element of mystery surrounding Annette's activities added to the anticipation, creating suspense among the audience.
* Champ Ferro (District 1 Male) explored the sawmill and Annette wisely hid, knowing the danger that the ruthless tribute posed. Champ, in his characteristic aggressive manner, tore through the sawmill cabin, searching for any signs of tributes. Annette remained concealed, and audiences watched in suspense as the tension escalated.
* Stella Memphis (District 1 Female) had built a secluded shelter within some dead trees in the forest. While scavenging, the female tribute was ambushed by Magnus Hatch (District 2 Male). The large District 2 boy speared her through the abdomen and then struck her down with two more spear blows to the chest.
* Other tributes focused on building shelters to protect themselves from the elements and potential threats. The coastal forest offered both opportunities for concealment and dangers that required careful navigation.
* Denali Rayle (District 6 Male) made a discovery on the beach cliffside – a hidden cave. This newfound shelter could prove crucial for tributes seeking refuge and safety. Denali's exploration added a new dimension to the tributes' strategies as they considered the potential advantages of different locations in the arena.
* As the day unfolded, the tributes faced a mix of challenges, from the aggressive patrolling of Magnus Hatch to the suspenseful actions of Annette Caspum at the sawmill. The Capitol audience eagerly tuned in, awaiting the next twists and turns in the 13th Hunger Games.

* **Tributes Left:** 12

### July 18th, Day 4

* The Jaffa Langley (District 11 Male) saga came to an unceremonious end when the injured tribute was discovered on the beach by Lake Perkins and Mayvus Harp (District 4 Male and Female). Lake quickly dispatched Jaffa with his trident, ending his struggle for survival. Reaper Ash, Jaffa's mentor, had an emotional outburst in the Control Center, expressing his frustration and condemning the evil nature of the Games.
* Isla Rhodes, mentoring District 4, defended the Games, pointing out that Reaper had done similar things to secure victory in the past. Despite Isla's defense, Reaper's outrage persisted, leading to a confrontation that escalated when he was escorted from the Control Center by Peacekeepers and sent back to District 11.
* Meanwhile, Boone Suadero (District 10 Male) attempted to scale the Wall, only to be threatened by Peacekeepers. The tense exchange was broadcast, and some viewers in the Capitol and Districts expressed displeasure with the treatment of Boone. Brief protests occurred, prompting Gamemaker Coriolanus Snow to discuss the need for better protocols to ensure the safety and containment of tributes within the arena with Head Gamemaker Vulcan Ring.
* Champ Ferro (District 1 Male), finally making his way to the beach, came upon the lighthouse where the District 5 tributes had sheltered. The District 5 pair, unsuspecting, were surprised by the District 1 male's attack. Baram Hinkle (District 5 Male) attempted to fight off Champ, but was killed by the District 1 tribute. Fara Musk (District 5 Female) managed to escape out of the lighthouse and onto the beach. She spotted Lake Perkins and Mayvus Harp (District 4 Male and Female) and retreated up the wooden steps while Champ chased her.
	+ Fara managed to evade him by fleeing into the woods. Champ, slowed by his clumsy running up the old wooden steps, lost his prey when she hid in the woods.
* Miller Parsons (District 9 Mentor) tried to recruit more sponsors for Ziti Voltari (District 9 Female), but due to her lack of action outside of the bloodbath, he was only able to send her some water and dried fruit.
* Cascade Del Marco (District 4 Victor, mentoring District 6) was chastised by other mentors for not caring about his remaining tribute, Denali. Namely, Cornelius North (District 1 Mentor) approached Coriolanus Snow about it and mentioned reworking the mentor system to incentivize mentors as well.
* On the evening of Day 4, Vulcan Ring was interviewed by Lucky Flickerman. Vulcan announced his new muttation, the Sablefox. Resembling foxes, these mutts have a sleek, sable-colored fur coat that allows them to blend seamlessly into the shadows of the coastal forest.

Annette crafted various traps, including nets, bear-trap style devices, snares, and a particularly gruesome saw trap set up at the cabin entrance designed to cut a tribute in half if they entered. That morning, she embarked on a mission to strategically place these traps around the arena, focusing on the forest area where many tributes sought shelter and resources.
* Annette's trap-laying expedition added a new layer of danger to the already treacherous arena, intriguing the Capitol audience and Gamemakers alike. The audience watched with anticipation, wondering who might fall victim to these ingenious contraptions.
* Meanwhile, other tributes navigated the arena, each with their own agenda.
* The day progressed without any direct confrontations or deaths caused by Annette's traps. The tributes remained vigilant, knowing that the arena held not only human threats but also possible surprises from Gamemakers, unaware Annette had also sprung her own traps.

* **Tributes Left:** 10

### July 20th, Day 6

* Day 6 unfolded as the bloodiest day of the 13th Hunger Games since the bloodbath, marked by a series of deadly events that left the arena in chaos.
* The Gamemakers unleashed the Sablefox muttations into the arena. Resembling foxes with sleek, sable-colored fur, these mutts were intended to heighten the intensity of the Games. However, the situation quickly spiraled out of control as the mutts proved to be more lethal than anticipated.
* Annette Caspum (District 7 Female), having meticulously laid traps throughout the arena, witnessed the fruits of her efforts as three tributes fell victim to her ingenious contraptions.
	+ Boone Suadero (District 10 Male), unaware of the deadly traps laid by Annette Caspum, ventured into the dense forest. As he navigated through the trees, he triggered one of Annette's concealed traps. Suddenly, a net shot up from the forest floor, ensnaring Boone and leaving him defenseless. Seizing the opportunity, Annette used her saw-bladed weapon to slash into Boone.
	+ Claudia Ross (District 8 Female), attempting to evade the relentless Sablefox mutts, found herself in one of Annette's traps. While cautiously moving through the forest, she stepped onto a concealed trap. In an instant, a snare tightened around her leg, hoisting her off the ground. Suspended in mid-air, Claudia became vulnerable to the sablefoxes. They viciously tore her apart while she screamed. Annette, however, was credited with killing Claudia.
	+ Fara Musk (District 5 Female), seeking a new place to shelter, attempted to enter into the sawmill cabin. Fara entered the cabin and shut the door behind her. When she did, she sprung the trap. The saw trap Annette had set swung down from the ceiling. Fara backed up into the door, stuck. The trap swiftly cut into her, embedding itself down the middle of her body. She screamed in pain and tried to get herself loose. Fara finally bled out that evening.
	+ The deaths of Claudia and Fara were two of the most gruesome of the entire Games.
* Four other tributes died because of the sablefox attacks.
	+ Champ Ferro (District 1 Male): Champ, a fierce and formidable tribute from District 1, found himself overtaken by the Sablefox mutts while navigating the dense woods. Unbeknownst to him, the mutts had silently surrounded him, utilizing their sable-colored fur to blend seamlessly into the shadows. With a sudden and coordinated attack, the Sablefoxes pounced on Champ, overwhelming him with their agility and ferocity. Despite his attempts to fight back, Champ succumbed to the onslaught, his fate sealed by the mutts' deadly assault. The Capitol audience watched in shock as one of the strongest tributes met a gruesome end in the dark forest.
	+ Magnus Hatch (District 2 Male): Magnus, having fled to the beach in an attempt to escape the Sablefox mutts, found himself cornered in the open expanse. The mutts, relentless in their pursuit, closed in on Magnus with calculated precision. Despite his combat skills, Magnus struggled against the coordinated attacks of the Sablefoxes. The sleek and shadowy creatures swarmed him, their sable-colored fur making them nearly invisible in the dim light. In a harrowing display, Magnus fought valiantly but ultimately succumbed to the overwhelming force of the mutts.
	+ Lake Perkins and Mayvus Harp (District 4 Male and Female) were cornered in their own stronghold, the shipwreck, but the muttations. The District pair fought valiantly against the Sablefox mutts but, overwhelmed by their numbers and ferocity, became additional casualties on this chaotic day.
* Seeing that the muttations would soon overcome all remaining tributes, Mr. Ring had the remaining mutts called back to the Wall where they had been released from using a high pitched frequency he had trained them with.
* The decision to release the Sablefox mutts, made by Head Gamemaker Vulcan Ring against the objections of other Gamemakers sparked controversy among Capitol citizens. Many shared the sentiment of the other Gamemakers: questioning the necessity of the muttations given the already intense nature of the Games and the incoming action from Annette's traps.
* As the chaos unfolded, the Control Center was a hive of activity as mentors strategized and attempted to secure sponsor support for their remaining tributes. Multiple mentors were visibly annoyed by the muttations' release.
* Vulcan Ring faced criticism for his controversial decision, and the aftermath of Day 6 left the Capitol audience in suspense, unsure of what further surprises the 13th Hunger Games had in store. President Ravenstill was made aware of the outbursts from mentors, other Gamemakers, and citizens but took no action.

### Day 7 - Finale

* Denali Rayle (District 6 Male), weakened by hunger and thirst, finally emerged from the shelter of his cave. The days of survival had taken a toll on him, and the prospect of facing the remaining tributes added to his desperation.
* Annette Caspum (District 7 Female), positioned on the cliff edge, spotted Denali as he ventured out into the open. Silent as a shadow, she descended the wooden steps leading to the beach, her eyes locked on the unsuspecting tribute.
* As Denali headed toward the lightkeeper's cabin, driven by the primal instincts of survival, Annette closed the distance, her steps deliberate and purposeful. In a swift and calculated move, she struck Denali down with a lethal blow from her axe. The Capitol audience watched in suspense as Annette's strategic prowess claimed another victim.
* Ziti Voltari (District 9 Female), sheltered in the cabin, heard the commotion outside. Alert and prepared, she braced herself for the impending confrontation. Annette, having just dispatched Denali, turned her attention to the remaining tribute. The final showdown unfolded between the two surviving tributes.
* Annette, armed with her deadly axe and hardened by the challenges of the arena, engaged in a hand-to-hand fight with Ziti. The clash of the titans echoed through the coastal forest, each tribute drawing upon their strengths and resilience.
* Despite a valiant effort from Ziti, Annette's ruthless determination proved overwhelming. In a moment of fierce struggle, Annette managed to overpower Ziti, securing her victory in the 13th Hunger Games.
* With Ziti defeated, Annette stood alone as the last tribute standing. The Capitol audience erupted in a mix of applause and awe, witnessing the conclusion of a Games marked by cunning traps, muttations, and the unyielding spirit of the tributes.
* In the Control Center, mentors processed the outcome, reflecting on the strategies and twists that led to Annette's triumph. Reaper Ash, mentor to the fallen Jaffa, found a bittersweet sense of accomplishment in Annette's victory.
* Head Gamemaker Vulcan Ring, despite the controversies surrounding the Sablefox mutts, couldn't deny the impact the 13th Hunger Games had on the audience. The unpredictable and intense nature of the Games left an indelible mark on Panem, setting the stage for future Hunger Games and the perpetual cycle of tribute and spectacle.
* President Ravenstill, observing the aftermath, recognized the need to maintain the Capitol's control and divert attention from any dissent among citizens or mentors. The conclusion of the 13th Hunger Games would soon be celebrated, but the shadow of the arena would linger over Panem until the next Games captured the nation's attention.
