Darkness, that’s the first thing you see in the morning. You choose to open your eyes, push your long hair out of the way, and glance out at the outside world of Panem, but you see only your little brother Nathan, poking you and saying,”come on Florin!”. It’s reaping day and you must get ready. You get dressed in your nicest clothes, and head out to the town square. You live in District 7, the lumber industry. Suddenly, a small girl races by you, almost knocking you over shouting “but mommmmm!! I don’t want to go to the reaping!!!”, then her mother catches up with her and corralls her to the town square. You recognize her, her name is Rue, and this is her first year of risk of being drawn in the reaping. Your representative from the capitol, Flavio Winterburgen, sits down at his seat, and is joined by the mayor and Joshua Tyken, one of the past winners of the hunger games from District 7 . Flavio sits up after the mayor reads the treaty of treason and then announces to the crowd,”time to draw the two very lucky tributes”! He reaches his hand into the glass jar marked girls in big bold letters, the hand that will doom two tributes to the horrors that await them in the hunger games arena. He announces in a needlessly high voice,”the lucky lady is…..Kinto Hampton”! Kinto’s face blanched at the sudden realization as she walked up to the podium. Then, without me noticing, Flavio dips his hand into the other glass jar and announces another name. “Woody Awdes”!!! Woody is a strong character who always boasted that he could win the hunger games if he was chosen by the reaping, but he doesn’t look so sure now. Instead of calmly walking up to the podium to join Kinto, he yells,” I will never play your hunger games”!!! And then dashes from the town square and is heading straight for you.

You decide to step to the side and let Woody pass. He races past you, but is stopped by Bartholomew Copperpot. As Randy the head peacekeeper arests him, shoots him, and throws his lifeless body on the ground, he eyes you suspiciously. He walks up to the podium, leans oner to Flavio, and whispers in his ear. Flavio then announces," oh well, I guess we'll have to draw a new winner",!!!! He reches his hand in the jar, and announces a name, "Florin Cruzado"!!! Suddenly, the whole town square goes silent because they know that the timing is too convenient for this to be happening to you. Not wanting to pull a "Woody", you walk up to the podium and shake Flavio's greasy hand. But then you have an idea; what if you challenge Flavio and tell him to show the name on the boys card too you. then you could expose him and mabye, just maybe, they would draw for another boy.

You choose to stop Woody for the “good” of Panem. As he attempts to rush past you, you stick your foot out to trip him, he goes tumbling, and then you catch him in a chokehold. Randy the head peacekeeper slowly jogs up to you, being a man of great girth, he does it quite slowly indeed. When he catches up to you he thanks you for the help, shoots Woody in the head and walks off with his limp corpse slung over his bloated shoulder. The crowd isn’t very stunned; Randy is a very violent man and shoots people all the time for various reasons. Ekulele Stotinka is called up as the boy tribute and walks up obediently. As you walk home with your mother Linda, a thought races through your head. “I just killed a man” The next day a messenger from the capitol knocks on your door and says that as a reward, you may move to the glorious capitol of Panem if you wish to do so. He also claims that you can receive a reward of 100 pounds of pure gold as a compensation reward if you decline. After the messenger finishes, you think, which option to choose? You could live in prosperity in the capitol, or you could be rich back here.

You decide to challenge Flavio’s honesty. Just as his hand is about to put the slip that supposedly has your name on it into the trash, you yell ”NO!!!!”, he freezes and you demand to see the name on the slip of paper. “Are you implying that I may be lying”’? He asks in a rather rude tone. “Yes” you quite bluntly reply. “If you deny to show us the name on that slip of paper then you will have no grounds to send me to the hunger games”!!!!! With that last word the crowd goes wild and starts cheering, “Florin, FLORIN!, FLORIN”!!! Adrenalin starts pumping through your veins and Flavio looks genuinely afraid of the rowdy crowd. Despite all this, he still holds the crumpled slip of paper in his hand, unwilling to give it up to you and the people of District 7. Randy the head peacekeeper loads his gun and shoots at anything that moves; in the midst of it all, Flavio gets shot in the heart and dies. Right next to you. As your eyes clear from the effects of adrenalin, you look out into the crowd and see not a grand rebellion, but a horrible scene from a real-life horror movie. Randy lays on the ground unconscious, while being pummeled by three hefty men. You realize that heavily armoured peacekeepers with very powerfull guns will be soon arriving here. Will you try to run, or will you stay and fight?
if you run, click [[here|9]]
if you stay and fight, click [[here|8]]
You quickly realize that questioning Flavio would probably end in your death. You slowly slink up to the podium and stay quiet. You and Kinto share a quick look and head to the justice building to say goodbye. Your Mother comes in and squeezes your hand while saying,” be safe out there, and try to win please!”. Next, Bartholomew Copperpot came in and bragged about he was being rewarded with 100 pounds of pure gold for stopping Woody. For the next few moments your mouth just hangs open and you stare at him “100 pounds of gold!!!” you think. “Wow”, you exclaim, but he has left already and flipped a small gold coin with a pin at you. You pin it to your shirt as a souvenir and you are escorted out of the building by peacekeepers. You board the tribute train, and with one last longful glance at District 7, you are on your way to the Hunger Games. You are shown to your room, and left with a short explanation on how to use things here. Later, you are called over to lunch and you marvel at all the food. You have never seen so much of it in you life!!!!!! As you gorge yourself on the food, Kinto stares at you like you are some wild animal. Then you notice that Joshua has has not joined you yet.

You decide to accept the gold instead of the trip to the capitol. The next day a hovercraft arrives at your house and drops all the 100 pounds of gold on your house. You are slowly crushed and suffocated by the gold as beggars swarm around it. The last thing you see is a note that says,” you shouldn't have been so greedy”.
(text-style: "smear")[''THE END'']
You choose to move to the “glorious capital of Panem". The messenger walks away and you start to pack up your items. Then you think, what about your family members; will they be able to come too? Suddenly, the door opens, interrupting your train of thought, then the messenger from yesterday comes in, helps you pack, has you sign a paper, and rushes you outside. You dig your heels into the ground and he asks,”what's wrong”? “I forgot to tell my mom and brother to come with me!” you wheeze. “Ha!” “don't be silly Florin!” “they didn’t help enforce the rules of Panem!” “They don’t deserve it”!!!! Horror rushes through your mind as you remember that the paper you signed makes you an official citizen of the capital forever. You have to go with him too the capital or…. What? What will happen to you if you refuse? Running away now is out of the question as you are approaching the train which has two rather burly guards on it. Maybe if you tell the messenger that you want to simply say goodbye to your family. He lets you do it. You say goodbye to your family. And get ready.

You decide to stay and fight for your liberty. You yank the slip of paper from Flavio’s lifeless hand and discover it actually did have your name on it. However, this startling discovery was found out too late, as a red splotch grows around your stomach. The peacekeepers have arrived.
(text-style: "smear")[''THE END'']
You decide to run away from it all. Surprisingly, you are able to escape unnoticed and unscathed. After many days in the outer reaches of Panem with no particular goal, you formulate a plan to go to District 13 to start a rebellion to end the capitols reign of power forever. You live off berries, nuts, and a certain type of edible tree bark. Travel is quick, and as you reach District 9, a sound of crying reaches your ears. You go towards it and discover a girl sitting upon a stone, you say,”hi, want to escape to District 13 with me”? As she turns her head you can’t help but notice her brown eyes and long hair falling off her shoulders. She replies with a sniffly “yes” and you set off together. There seems to be no obstacles in your way until you reach District 12 and notice two hunters in the forest; suddenly, the mockingjays in the forest turn quiet and you notice the sound of a hovercraft. You two run, but the hovercraft is far faster than you. As you shout to the hunters to help you, a harpoon shoots from the craft, impales you, and then everything goes black.

You realize that you could not possibly escape alive and give up. You walk to the train and already miss District 7. You reach the capitol in a matter of minutes and your guide explains the rules.
1. You cannot converse with the tributes in any way.
2. You must find a job or a job will be found for you.
3. Enjoy your stay.
First you decide to get a job. As you are walking around the square, a bulletin board catches your eye and you see two available jobs.
1. Gamemaker
2. District 12 representative

You decide to look for Joshua. You head down the tribute train after excusing yourself quite awkwardly because of Kinto’s sudden revulsion at you. When you have searched the entire south side of the train, you decide to investigate the north end in an attempt to find Joshua. You pass many odd rooms in your search for your mentor and are distracted many times by odd sounds and objects. Just as you are about to give up on your search, your ears detect an odd sound other than the strange pulsing of the engine, so logically you begin to search for it instead. The sound leads you to the engine room where you discover Joshua talking on a large radio with headphones plugged in. He starts to turn his head at you when there is a clang and he jerks his head in that direction. You hide behind the massive engine. He says,” okay, President Snow will fall soon”, and you realize that he is a rebel spy.

Either choice is better that the hunger games.
You decide to keep eating. You think to yourself,”he’ll probably just turn up later”. Surely enough, Joshua arrives and announces that we are almost to Panem. You get there quite promptly indeed, and when it comes time to parade around the square, you meet your personal designer. He has neon green hair, purple skin, red eyes, and blue lips. He prepares you to go out, and dresses you in a saggy wood brown shirt with saggy wood brown pants. As you get ready to go, you think,”well, i’m not going to get any sponsors,”. He tells you to pull a cord when you go out because your clothes will inflate and you will look like a tree. The chariot starts to move, and you have to make a decision.

You decide to become a representative. Under the sign, there is a piece of paper that says,” for application, please report to the jobs office at 3262 Stark Court". It takes you awhile to find the jobs office but when you get there there is only one person in the line, she has a scary white painted face and a name tag that says in large bold letters, EFFIE TRINKET. Both of you proclaim that you want to be a representative at the same time. You both realize there's only one thing left to do, ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS!!!!!

You become a gamemaker. You have a very successful year and the 74th annual Hunger Games is here. You review all of the tributes while munching food from a banquet and now the final tribute is here: Katniss Everdeen. She shoots all of the targets perfectly, but you have not not noticed because a delicious looking roast pig has been set in front of you.

You decide to alert the peacekeepers to Joshua's actions. After they break through the door, he sees you and they ask him if he had any accomplices. A wave of understanding washes through him and he says, Florin Cruzado.
(text-style: "smear")[''THE END'']
Nervously, you step out from the shadows and say,”hi, umm…. can I join the rebellion?" He turns around and holds a gun to your head but lowers it when he recognizes your face and says,” hm….. sure. I know that you hate the capitol so you would be an asset to the rebellion”. You leave with orders to jump from the train when it goes over a bridge at precisely 12:00. It is 11:30 now and you begin to wonder if you really should jump at the bridge or try it at level ground.

You decide to pull the cord and have some faith in your personal designer. You pull the cord and the costume starts to inflate… and keeps inflating until the air pressure is too much for the costume and it pops, snapping your neck and killing you. At least you looked pretty funny while you were a tree.
(text-style: "smear")[''THE END'']
You don’t pull the cord and you get no sponsors. Three weeks later, you’re dying in a hole because nobody cares enough to give you food.

You lean down to sample the soup but Katniss shoots an arrow into an apple in the pig's mouth causing one of the gamemakers to land on you while you are trying the soup. He is quite large and your head is trapped in the bowl by his great girth, and you drown in soup.
(text-style: "smear")[''THE END'']
You decide to trust in Joshua and jump. Just as you begin to doubt Joshua for the first time, a hovercraft races under you and races you to a secret rebel base. Inside, they tell you that in three days, you will be taken to District 13 and will live in a secret base down there. Suddenly, a siren starts blaring and you don’t know what to do. Someone grabs your arm and yanks you towards a doorway.

You choose to wait until you are of flat ground to jump. You do, but a peacekeeper spots you and shoots you in the head mid-jump.

You decide to eat the pig. You lean towards the pig and Katniss's arrow pierces your head. You die. Unbeknownst to you, they execute Katniss, and you have singlehandedly ended the rebellion. congradulations!!!

You choose rock and Effie chooses scissors. Yay! You get to become a representative. You get payed for doing nothing because there is nothing for you to do until the reaping. However, the day before the reaping at 12:00, a stranger enters your room and raises a dagger to you neck. By sheer luck, your eyes dart open and recognize Effie Trinket before she hisses " the rebellion MUST have a representative in District 12. "

You realize that you don’t know how to get around the base very well so you let him guide you into this dark closet. Suddenly, a voice says, “the capitol will crush the rebellion!!”. You recognize that voice; Bartholomew copperpot. Now official spy for the capitol. A knife slits your throat open. You die.

You break away from your mysterious guide, turn around, and get ran over by a large man who then trips on you causing a domino effect across the entire hallway. People scramble to get up, and they move downstairs. You would have too, if your legs had not been broken. Then the bunker missiles hit.
