The 227th Annual Hunger Games:
'''Intro: The time when Paylor was President of Panem was not long. She took over Panem in the time of the 2nd Rebellion, but as soon as everything was calm and orderly, once more, she was thrown out of office. She was replaced by President Remedy who wanted the Games to be hosted again, not once but three times, every year. She, also, demanded that the Capitol have total control as they did before. The Capitol would elect a new President every five years. President Remedy was replaced by Presidents with the same wishes. Panem was a cruel society until one woman lied about her ideas to run the nation; her name was President Leise, and she wanted everything ran as it was with President Paylor. ''' Once President Leise took over Panem, all districts were so happy and treated equally. The citizens of the Capitol, though, did not like this at all! The Capitol residents hated being on the same equality level as the Districts! They no longer had as much money to spend on themselves! The Capitol was outraged! So, one night a group of Captol men disabled all cameras and murdered President Leise while she was asleep! The Districts could only pray that the new President would be as gracious as President Leise, but, of course, this did not happen. A strict and commanding Capitol woman, President Ivory, took over the nation of Panem! She insisted that Panem will be run as it was in President Snow's time! Therefore, the Hunger Games were held annually once again, with District 13 a Games-participating district, and each Games promised to be extra horrific and torturous to the tributes which only made the Capitol feel even more powerful.

Reapings
Jade Gemstone: I wake up and grin in the mirror. Reaping Day! I dance to my closet and throw it open. I grab my pinkest sundress and my favorite, teal high heels with the ribbons that wrap up my perfect legs like vines. I tie my hair up in a perfect ballerina bun ontop of my head. A small bow is angled near the bun. My hair is shiny and smooth. I put on my makeup. I look incredible. I feel confident and as light as a feather. I twirl and hum all the way to the Reaping. I watch the videos of Panem's past without complain. I feel so incredible today, almost as incredible as I look! I listen for the female's name, "Lacey Silvermist!" My mood changes and I stomp onto the stage. I knock Lacey to the side and snatch the mic from the escort. "I am Jade Gemstone and I am your female tribute! It's an honor to represent my district in the 227th Annual Hunger Games!" I shift back into my normal, smiley self and do an elegant twirl to show off my silky sundress. Blake Monror: Our escort takes the stage in a ridiculus panda costume. I laugh to myself at her ridiculus get-up, but I make it unnoticable. I don't want to mock the Capitol. I immediatley wipe the smirk from my face and bite my nails. We watch the videos about the Dark Days and the 2nd Rebellion and a few clips form the last Games. There has been so much romance in the last few Games. Romance and affection can be fatal. I sware to myself that I will not sink to that level. I will not get distracted by a lover. My eyes will stay on the prize. I am fantasizing about being bathed in riches of all kinds, when I hear my name ring out through the crouds. I waltz to the stage and bow like a gentleman. As I bend down, I kiss the escorts hand. It's hard to spit and wipe my tongue to get the taste of her hand out of my mouth. It tastes like perfume and soap. I nearly gag, but restrain the urge and maintain my polite posture.

Cody Pepper: I got to the Reaping really early and sat with my back to a brick wall while my fingers played with the skeleton key on my necklace. I must have momentarily fell asleep, because before I know it, my name is called as the female tribute. I roll my eyes and stomp onto the stage. The escort started to congratulate me, but I interupted, "Blah, blah, blah, now onto the guys. I wanna meet the other Career!" The escort seemed puzzled, "What's a Career?" Oh, that's right the Capitol people don't know about the whole Career thing; it's illegal. I play it off, "It's none of your business!" I scream the words in her face and I"m tempted to knowck her over. I cross my arms and scowl at the audience from the stage. I hate all of these people.

The Interview Host
The interview host for these Games will be Piper Bristol. Piper is a female who was extremely sad when the Games were cancelled in President Leise's time, but she eventually saw how cruel and barbaric the Games really were. That realization made her want to be the interview host when the Games started again with President Ivory. She felt that as interview host she could help encourage the tributes and keep them as hopeful and optimistic as possible.

She tries to be as fantastic as Caeser Flickerman and she exceeds beyond expectations. She is wonderful and can coax a conversation out of almost any tribute. She only makes jokes at her own expense and puts a positive spin on anything the tribute says. She always puts on her most stunning smile while she is on stage so the tributes feel more welcome. Piper always says the right thing at the right time. She is a perfect host.

Piper has long, wavy hair that is brown and has pink, purple, and blue highlights. She is actually pretty, in a way. Her eyes are a deep blue, and she has long eyelashes with tiny butterflies scattered over them. She wears purple eyeshadow and lipstick. Piper dresses in a long, white, sleeveless gown with a purple belt around her waist.

Head Gamemaker
The Head Gamemaker for these Games is a 23-year-old, Jennifer Ellie. She is easily offended, and when she is angry she can be murderous. She is very harsh and demanding, and if you catch her in a good mood, you've obviously been extremely nice to her or you know her very well. Also, she will do anything to make the Games as bloody as possible. She adores mutts and will contribute as many deadly additions to the Games as possible. And because of her love of a tribute's bloody death, she will make the arena extra harsh, dangerous, and, of course, deadly

The Games Announcer
Alexander Barry is the Announcer for the 227th annual Hunger Games! His phrase that announces the beginning of the Games is, "Tributes, welcome to the 227th Annual Hunger Games! Remember, only one tribute may be crowned victor! So, best of luck, and let the Games begin!"

Bloodbath
'''For the rest of the Games, I will be rotating POV's, because it takes too much time to write everday from each tribute's POV. Sorry, guys, but I hope you still enjoy my Games!'''
