41st Hunger Games

## Arena

The 41st Hunger Games was set in a vast Strawberry Field with tall hills and a snow capped mountain in the surrounding area. The golden Cornucopia sat in the middle of the field, which sat in a valley between two large mountains. Underneath a few hills were a system of stone caves, with purple and blue crystals and rivers flowing inside. These caves glimmered in the nighttime and was the only source of water within the arena.

## Synopsis

Upon entering the Arena, the cool crisp air gave a relaxing feel toward tributes as they gazed upon a bountiful cornucopia with an array of different tools at their disposal.

**BLOODBATH**

As the countdown was getting to 0  Gigi Couture (D8) was focused and determined to claim the cornucopia. As the gong sounded everyone ran inward except for Sprout Adams (D11) who decided to run away. Gigi claims first blood by killing Roman Zolanski (D1) in a strange turn of events where a career dies first. Faith Soya(D11) was not looking when Daena Valentis(D2) brought down her longsword and left her in a state where the body could hardly be recognized. When Shen (D5) rose up into the arena all he could see was the faint images of his surrounding, when he realized the gong had started he didn't react as his feet wouldn't move, this all came to an end when Titus Valentis (D2) decapitated Shen in one fluid motion.

**Day 1**

As the bloodbath winds down the beginning of Day 1 of these games has begun the different packs of teams spread across the arena and started sharing supplies with one another in hopes of surviving, Bronk Watts (D3) managed to return to cornucopia as the remainder of tribute fled in hopes of finding more tributes. But sadly he did not find any usable materials. Bronk decides to run toward the edge of the arena in hopes of having some sense of safety but doesn't realize that the forcefield is within reach and gets an electrical shock that sends him flying back and onto the ground. Bronk is fighting to keep his consciousness and manages to succeed before lying in pain on the ground. On the other side of the arena Arha Elphare (D7) was seen by Hyperio Rayon (D8) and he proceeded to cut Arha slowly and precisely as she slowly bleeds out her cannon sounds. As Laela Summerson (D4) hears this cannon she does not look where she is walking and hits the forcefield and is sent a lethal amount of electricity and dies within the moment she touches the forcefield.

Gigi Couture and her crew spot Titus and Juniper Lee (D3), and Ash Ember (D12,) and proceeds to chase them down. Titus, knowing that they are outnumbered, decides to run away and grabs onto Juniper's hand, not realizing that the forcefield just up ahead. They both run directly into it, killing them both instantly. 2 cannons boom across the arena. Ash, seeing his two friends fry against the forcefield, attempts to take one of them down. Ash charges directly into Gigi's (D8)  blade and dies within a few seconds. Whilst these cannons boomed, Hyperion (D8) was chased to the edge of one of the cliffs at the top of the mountains, and began to plead for his life. Cross (D7) saw this and put his flanged mace on the ground and walked up to Hyperio and whispered something that capital cameras could not pick up. However, the expression on Hyperio's face was of pure horror and Cross shoved him off the edge of cliff. His cannon sounded the moment he hit the bottom.

**Day 2**

As the sun rose on Day 2, some tributes woke up dazed and confused that they were in the arena. Of all the tributes, Sky Adler (D9) was the most shocked as she was terrified of where she found herself. Most other tributes were hiding but not Cross Elphare, as his group were out searching for their next victims. Not too long after beginning their hunt, Cross suddenly found Kush Oto (D6) sitting at a small camp. Cross came up behind him, and bashed his head in with his mace, killing him instantly. On the other end of the arena, Gigi's group entered a glittering cave, only to run away in fear of a bat minding its own business. As they ran out, they ran into the view of Cross brutality killing Kush. Behind them at the Cornucopia, another group led by Vision Wade (D6) arrived, seeing Gigi and her team not too far ahead. Vision froze in fear, as Gigi ran straight at him with her gladius, impaling him through the chest. The rest of Vision's group fleed, and Gigi's Igroup started chasing after the other group Cross has been leading.Suddenly, a horde of Tracker Jackers swarmed the arena, causing tributes to freak and scream and in total chaos. Little did they know that they were harmless as long as you left them alone. Suddenly, in the midst of the chaos, tributes came from everywhere and ran directly into each other. Sprout Adams (D11) was sliced in half by Matthew Underwood (D12) and Cross brought down his flanged mace right above Sky, who was lying on the ground, pleading for her life. Cross didn't care and slowly plunged the mace into her body, giving her the slowest death these games. While Cross was finishing off his kill, another cannon was heard from Mantis Pane (D5) bashing Daena Valentis's head into the golden cornucopia. When Mantis looked over his shoulder he saw Cross standing behind Rufus Feed (D10), threatening that if he didn't give up now, he would rip limb after limb off of Rufus with his mace. Mantis, seeing this, started to sprint away in fear but Cross was not letting him escape. He struck Rufus with his mace, and took off after Mantis. He continued to run from Cross as fast as he could, but the thorns from the strawberry bushes slowed him down, enough for Cross to catch up, and throw is mace right into Mantis's back. His cannon sounded as the sun began to set.

**Fallen Day Two:** KushLyfe (D6), Zach (D6) CucumusSprout (D11), SkyElizabeth23 (D9), R\_ayven (D2), HappyJuxeBox (D10), and Lars (D5)

**Day 3**

It was the early morning of Day 3, the remaining large groups met up at the Cornucopia. The upcoming fight would be one of the largest the Gamemakers had seen in a long time. Charging forward with no fear, Cross would go right for Matthew (D12) and smash his head head over and over against the side of the Cornucopia. As he was blunged and his face was swollen, Cross slowly but effectively impaled him with his mace and waited for him to cough up blood before turning toward the ongoing carnage. Garfield (D4) was readying his weapon but wasn't paying attention and was impaled through the back by Gigi Couture's sword and swiftly fell to the ground. As Cross heard Matthew's cannon, he leaped toward LJ Garner (D9) and pinned him to the ground as he forced his Flanged Mace into his skull, killing him quickly. Cross looked up as Aurum Albright (D1) was sliced several times by Dolly Darton (D10). Cross yelled in anger and started to get up, but Dolly saw this and began to flee from the scene. Gigi was trying to get toward Cross, as she knew he was the biggest threat. She began swinging her sword in a fit of rage, and sliced Bronk Watts (D3) in the side, causing him to bleed out. As she chased after Cross, he suddenly stopped at the base of a mountain, and turned around. Gigi and Cross stared at each other, preparing for what was about to happen. They charged at each other, and Cross swung his mace right into Gigi's sword-bearing arm. It caused a minor injury, and she tossed her sword into her other hand. She charged her sword at him, but he stopped it with his mace. She began to overpower him as she pushed down on his mace, hoping it would go into his chest. Cross regained strength, pushed Gigi's sword back, hitting her in the nose. He then readied his mace, swung it at her leg, and then slammed it into her skull as she hit the ground. Dolly, standing 20 feet away behind a tree, heard Gigi's cannon echo through the valley, and prepared herself for the battle of the final two. As Cross was regaining his composure, Dolly ran out from behind the tree, her short sword ready to swing. Cross turned around, grabbed his bloody mace, and charged at Dolly as well. They began an intense fight, with both sustaining large wounds. The fight lasted all the way from the tree to the mouth of the Cornucopia. As they reached it, Dolly began to hold Cross in a chokehold. Cross, gasping for air, grabbed the knife he had in his pocket, and jabbed it right into Dolly's leg. She screamed in pain, as Cross picked up his mace, and swung it right into Dolly's forehead, killing her instantly. The final cannon boomed, and Cross Elphare of District 7 was declared the Victor of the 41st Hunger Games.

## Victory Tour

Not long after his return home, Cross would embark on a nation-wide tour to all of the Districts, giving his condolences to those who lost their lives in the arena.

## Notable Flora/Fauna

In this arena, Tracker Jackers were introduced once again to the tributes. They were harmless if they were near you, but if you bothered them, they would instantly grow mad and come after you with a lethal sting. One sting can induce severe pain and hallucinations for tributes. Multiple stings could even potentially cause death.

Strawberry bushes were located all around the field of the valley. While they were beautiful to look at, they contained large, painful thorns that jabbed the clothing of anyone who stepped on them.
