User blog:KatnissEverdeenAndPeeta/The Hunger Games: Season 3

Since The Hunger Games Season 2 is over, I decided the third Hunger Games. The general idea for the Hunger Games is the same as Season 1 and 2 and the book, but there will be a few twists and changes.

These games started January 7th, 2012.

Tributes
To submit a tribute, you only need to tell me their age, their name, and their district. You can have up to 4 tributes, but please do not make them from the same district.

Sponsoring:
If you would like to sponsor, please leave a comment below. Each sponsor will receive $10000, which they may use to buy items for the tribute they're rooting for. Users with tributes in the games can have $10000 multiplied by the number of tributes they have in the games (e.g. let's say you have 3 tributes, 3 x $10000 = $30000, so you get to spend $30000 on ur tributes) Sponsors may root for as many tributes as they wish, and they are allowed to pool their money together. Here are the prices for each item: (Prices will change as the Games progress)

Sponsor Money:
'''The more sponsors rooting for you, the more help and money you get in the Games! You can invite your friends to help you. If they leave a comment below saying that they want to sponsor, they'll get $10000 and they can help your tribute! (Even if you're not in these games, just leave a comment below and you'll still get to sponsor!)'''

Arena
The Arena is actually a gigantic tree, with branches stretching quite a few miles wide and can support the weight of 1000 people at the very edges. The tributes will be lifted into the arena on one of the 24 roots poking out of the ground (And wolf mutts will be waiting at the end of the roots), and they must climb to the top of the tree to the cornucopia. What tributes don't know is that the bottom of the tree, the ground, is quicksand, and once you fall in, you can't get out no matter how hard you try. Every hour, a branch will fall off the tree, and anything it catches on its way down falls along with it. Tributes have to have good balance to stay on the perfectly-round tree branches without falling into the quicksand, and they'll also have to be very skillful in order to be able to climb the tree and jump from branch to branch! Adding to that, tributes have to pray to god that they're standing on the right branch, and that the branch they're standing on won't just snap under their very feet....

Day 1:
D8 Boy - Harris Jon (11:58am)

I'm standing on my launch pad, waiting to be launched into the arena. I can't help but think that I could be dead in only MINUTES from now. The careers this year look really strong, and I don't know if I'd be able to compete with them. Once again, the rule is that you have to TOUCH the cornucopia, or else wolf mutts would chase you until you did. I look down at my silver plate. The plate that was going to raise me to my death. I took a deep breath and almost lost my balance when the plate started to go up.

D5 Boy - Bray Burk (11:59am)

I peered over the edge of the top of the glass cylinder. Turns out that wasn't such a good idea, because the silver plate was still rising and I almost lost my balance, but I couldn't believe my eyes at the arena. A TREE? What kind of arena was that! I couldn't see the edge of the branches - it must have been a plant mutt - so it probably goes on for ever and ever. I looked around. There didn't seem to be any FOOD on the tree either! Nor water! Was the only source of those essentials the cornucopia? And come to think of it, where exactly IS the cornucopia? I look up. There it is, at the top of the branches! I'm not really good at climbing trees, but this tree looks pretty simple to climb...........

D3 Girl - Destiny Bow (11:59am)

The timer on the wolf mutt is counting down now. 13, 12, 11. Too bad the arena is a tree. The people from district 7 would have a huge advantage. Still, I'm sure there's more horrors waiting on this tree, even though I can't see any right now. 4,3,2,1, THE GONG SOUNDED!

D11 Girl - Kathrina Loula (12:00 noon)

As soon as the gong sounded, a branch fell off the tree, and a wolf mutt began to chase after me. There would be no choice. Either touch the cornucopia or die. *BOOM* Someone's dead already? *BOOM BOOM* 2 more! I grab onto the first branch and haul myself up. Then a second, then a third. After a minute of exhaustion, I finally manage to touch the cornucopia, and I'm the first one there. I look at what's on the cornucopia. There are backpacks, water bottles, medicines, but the only weapon that I could see were needles. Needles! *BOOM* That's the fourth one!

D1 Boy - Thunder Way (12:02pm)

I got to the top of the tree just as the girl from district 11 was running away, and I took at look at what the Cornucopia had to offer. There were tons of survival supplies, but not a single attack weapon. That's stupid! How was I supposed to kill anyone now? I picked up a needle. I guess that's what happens when you just get too desperate to kill somebody. *BOOM* Wow five tribut- *BOOM* Six! Already dead! What's happening? I suddenly heard a scream. My district partner was falling off the tree! Would the fall hurt her? The ground didn't look too hard. I looked at him fall, waiting for him to land on the ground, then come back up, but the ground just swallows him.

"Quicksand" said the Boy from district 2 behind me. The cannon sounded for my district partner.

And we picked up needles as the other tributes began to arrive at the cornucopia.

D6 Girl - Artemis Elto (12:03pm)

The careers let me into their alliance because I was a victor. The boy from district one helped me onto the cornucopia and gave me a needle. A needle?! Was that the best he could do?! I looked in the cornucopia to grab a spear or something - the boy from district 1 was SO SELFIS- wait. Where was the spear that I needed?! Why were there only needles! I turned around and saw the boy from district 6 touching the cornucopia. Now would be an awesome time. I ran over, and stabbed him repeatedly in the throat with a needle. I didn't manage to kill him, but he was really wounded and bleeding like crazy, so I doubt he'd make it for very long. Then, 2 more cannons fired and I could see the heads of two tributes sinking into the ground. The boy from district 2 told me the ground was quicksand. That's scary!

D9 Boy - Saturn Chrome (1:30pm)

I ran away from the cornucopia immediately, after seeing that the only weapons were needles. It was pretty creepy. The boy from district 6 was lying unconcious on the ground, so I just jumped over him and continued running. Run...run....run.....would the arena ever end? It seems like the bloodbath is over now, because there hasn't been any cannons for an hour or so. I heard 9 cannons, so 9 died at the cornucopia today. Wow. What a torturous death, being killed by needles. Suddenly, I hear a scream. The boy from district 12 was falling off the tree. I grabbed him just before his feet hit the ground, and he asked if we could be allies. I accepted, since he got a backpack from the cornucopia and maybe he would share food with me. He told me that he overheard the careers saying that the ground was quicksand. So maybe that's how most tributes died? Sinking into the quicksand? That's a pretty torturous death too........................

D12 Boy - Titun Siege (1:45pm)

The boy from district 9 saved me from falling into the quicksand. Already, 9 tributes had died, and the first two hours of the Hunger Games aren't even over yet. The ground is quicksand - that's scary. I can't imagine having to grope around in that muck.......yuck!

Anyways, I opened my backpack and I found it STOCKED with supplies. There were 10 beef strips, a bag of popcorn, 10 crackers and 10 slices of cheese, 2 bottles of water, a few apples, AND a sandwich! I shared the loot with the boy from district 9 - I really owe him - and we start to walk towards the outer rim of the tree. The arena has to end SOMEWHERE, right?

D4 Boy - Cod Harbour (1:50pm)

The careers weren't able to kill anyone at the Cornucopia. What kind of weapons were NEEDLES anyways? The only person that we managed to stab pretty badly was the boy from district 6, but even he didn't die. Now if only I actually had a good - HEY! WHAT'S THAT? A SILVER PARACHUTE! IS IT FOR ME? All the careers run over to the silver parachute to see what it held. I opened it. Yeap, it was definitely for me - a trident! Now that's what I call the spirit of the games!

D3 Girl - Destiny Bow (1:59pm)

I received a knife as a sponsor gift. Thank goodness. Having only needles for weapons would be pretty terrible...................Well, now that I can actually kill, I might as well get going!

I was walking and walking, until suddenly, the branch beside me fell. It caught about 2 branches on its way down, and the branches disappeared - that's right - disappeared right into the ground. So the ground was liquidy. I'd have to be careful not to fall into it. And come to think of it, one fell when the gong sounded, another one fell approxiamately 1 hour later, and one fell just now. Does one branch fall every hour? If so, how many branches does this tree have? Each big branch splits into many little branches, and the little branches split into even tinier branches.....I'd say there's 1000 branches at LEAST.

D7 Girl - Kallmi Silvers (2:05)

A tree! A tree! I'm so used to that! It's where I come from! Oh thank you gamemakers for making this arena so perfect for me! I inspect the bark of the tree. It's an edible type of bark, so I wouldn't go hungry even though I didn't get a backpack or anything from the cornucopia. If the bark is edible, then I would never go hungry. I hope no other tribute knows that!

D12 Girl - Jay Wayland (4:00pm)

I'm totally freaked out right now.

The branch under me has just fallen down, and I had the luck to have grabbed another branch and hung on. What's bad is that there's nothing under me but air and the ground, and I heard that the ground was quicksand. My fingers are sort of slipping off the bark, so I don't move, because if I do, I'll slip. Gosh, the tributes from district 7 have such a huge advantage! I'd bet they'd be able to resolve this situation.......

D2 Boy - Wilden (4:29pm)

So the boy from district 4 got a trident, while the rest of us are stuck with needles. It would've been useful if the gamemakers had added at least ONE other weapon to the cornucopia. Now, if anyone else gets a sponsor gifts, we're defenseless. Of course, we're stocked with food and whatnot, but if they have an actual weapon and we only have needles, all we can do is depend on the boy from district 4 to do it all or to run like hell away.

STUPID GAMEMAKERS!

D8 Boy - Harris Jon (5:00pm)

I'm exhausted. Ever since the gong sounded, and after I touched the cornucopia, I've been running and running away from it, trying to get to the end of the tree, to see what was there. Now, I've been running for five hours straight - the ground was quicksand, as I found out after my district partner died - and I'm annoyed. Would this arena go on forever? It couldn't! There has to be an end! So, keeping my hopes up, I continue running towards wherever the branch would take me.

D2 Girl - Asia Madding (5:36pm)

There hasn't been much action so far. The nine tributes that died today all died in the quicksand. We're resting on the cornucopia, eating the food we got from it, and hoping that a sponsor would give us a good weapon soon.

D1 Boy - Thunder Way (6:02pm)

Three silver parachutes are falling from the sky. Once they land, I open the first one to reveal a sheath of bow and arrows. On it, there's the name "Asia Madding", so I gave it to her - she's the girl from district two, in case you didn't know. I opened the second one, which was a sword, and it had the name "Thunder Way" - that's me! - on it, so I took it. The third parachute was a piece of bread, and there was no name on it, so we decided to just share it. Now 3 of us have weapons! I feel sort of sorry for the girl from district 4 and the boy from district 2, because they're still stuck with needles, but that's alright! We have weapons now!

D7 Girl - Kallmi Silvers (6:39pm)

I just heard another cannon. Who could it be? Did someone just fall into the quicksand again? That's......10 dead. 10 dead on the first day. That's a lot.........I rip off the bark of a tree - yes, it's the same type of bark that I saw a few hours ago. I eat it, and it tastes like some of the food we eat at home. It tastes like home. Eating it just makes me feel really homesick. Was I really at home only a few days ago? It's hard to believe. Now, I'm in the most dangerous of all places, eating bark, and trying to keep warm, all the while working hard to stay balanced on the almost-perfectly-rounded branches.

D6 Girl - Artemis Elto (7:59pm)

Even being from district 6, I get to join the careers. That's really good. They protect me, they give me food, and I don't have to always stay alert. It's somewhere close to 8:00 in the night now - the time when all the dead tributes will show up in the sky. Did my district partner die? I hope not, because if he did, then the hopes are all on me..........

D12 Boy - Titun Siege (8:00pm)

It's time to look at the faces of the dead tributes in the sky now. The anthem is blaring so loud it's hurting my ears. Me and the boy from district 9 have found a place to spend the night, where - we hope - we won't be seen. Suddenly, the sky shines bright. The seal of Panem is showing up. Time to look at the deaths..............

I see the girl from district 1 first, which struck me as a surprise, being a career tribute. Then I saw the boy from district 3, the girl from 5, the boy from 6, the boy from 7, the girl from 8, the girl from 9, both from 10, and the boy from 11. That's 10 deaths............that's a lot.............I hope I'll be able to survive.

Deaths of Day 1:

Girl from District 1 - Fell into quicksand.

Boy from District 3 - Fell into quicksand

Girl from District 5 - Fell into quicksand

Boy from District 6 - Got stabbed unconcious and bled to death.

Boy from District 7 - Fell into quicksand.

Girl from District 8 - Fell into quicksand.

Girl from District 9 - Fell into quicksand.

Boy from District 10 - Fell into quicksand.

Girl from District 10 - Fell into quicksand.

Boy from District 11 - Killed by wolf mutt after not touching and running from the cornucopia.

Recap of Day 1 by the Narrarator:

Narrarator: Today, there were 10 deaths - that's the second most out of the previous three hunger games! My my, how deadly the quicksand is. 8 of the 10 deaths today were because of the quicksand! The careers stabbed the boy from district 6 so much that he began to bleed, and after an hour or so of running, he finally passed out. A few hours later, he bled to death. The boy from district 11 forgot the rule of touching the cornucopia, so his wolf mutt hunted him down, killed him, and ate him. Tommorow, with the final 14 tributes, may the games continue!
