[Based off of Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games.] [Quoted directly from the book, 'cause I'm too lazy to summarize.]  "He tells of the history of Panem, the country that rose up out of the ashes of a place that was once called North America. He lists the disasters, the droughts, the storms, the fires, the encroaching seas that swallowed up so much of the land, the brutal war for what little sustenance remained. The result was Panem, a shining Capitol ringed by thirteen districts, which brought peace and prosperity to its citizens. Then came the Dark Days, the uprising of the districts against the Capitol. Twelve were defeated, the thirteenth obliterated. The Treaty of Treason gave us the new laws to guarantee peace and, as our yearly reminder that the Dark Days must never be repeated, it gave us the Hunger Games. The rules of the Hunger Games are simple. In punishment for the uprising, each of the twelve districts must provide one girl and one boy, called tributes, to participate. The twenty-four tributes will be imprisoned in a vast outdoor arena that could hold anything from a burning desert to a frozen wasteland. Over a period of several weeks, the competitors must fight to the death. The last tribute standing wins. Taking the kids from our districts, forcing them to kill one another while we watch – this is the Capitol’s way of reminding us how totally we are at their mercy. How little chance we would stand of surviving another rebellion. Whatever words they use, the real message is clear. “Look how we take your children and sacrifice them and there’s nothing you can do. If you lift a finger, we will destroy every last one of you. Just as we did in District Thirteen. To make it humiliating as well as torturous, the Capitol requires us to treat the Hunger Games as a festivity, a sporting event pitting every district against the others. The last tribute alive receives a life of ease back home, and their district will be showered with prizes, largely consisting of food. All year, the Capitol will show the winning district gifts of grain and oil and even delicacies like sugar while the rest of us battle starvation. Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favour..."

(This may be a lost cause but I really really wanna do this, I finished the book over my break.) Name: Whisteria (Whisty) Fallsworth Gender: Female Age: 14 Special Skill: Explosives District: 8 Brief Bio: Whisty grew up keeping her head down but soon, that got her nowhere. She made her first bomb when she was fairly young, on accident. She wasn't sure how, but she knew what she had to make it, so she honed her skills. Bombs are fairly easy to make once there's amber, tree bark, and fire. She wouldn't be the girl who was on fire, she's the girl who sets others on fire. Description or Picture:

[[We'll start as the tributes are getting ready to go in the arena. They're in their separate rooms now...]]
Derric slowly walked down the hall, his breathing as calm and as controlled as possible. His stylist, an eccentric and bright blue-haired woman, bragged about how she hoped he would win, just so she could put make up on him again and do his hair, and cover up those ugly tattoos...
Derric put a hand on the black marks below his eyes, feeling slightly offended. He had gotten them because his older brother had some. So he could impress the one man he looked up to in life. She couldn't just...insult them like that. But he let her blabber on as they entered his room.
He wondered where Belle was, the other tribute from District Three. Derric had never known who she was until they had traveled to the capital together, and he hated that after this, whether it was he that died or she that died, he would never see her again. It was kind of...depressing.
Derric carefully stepped onto the glowing platform in the center of the room, completely ignoring his stylist as she wished him luck. His breathing faltered and he waited in silence for the games to begin.
Ava entered the room cautiously, feeling a little more at ease as her stylist gave her a gentle push forward. He flipped his lime green hair and flashed her a reassuring smile. She returned the gesture, stepping inside and placing herself over the platform.
Her stylist grinned at her, telling her everything would be okay and that he was rooting for her. But Ava didn't even listen. Her head was swarming with thoughts, doubts, and fears. She was about to go compete for her life in an arena with thousands, no, maybe even millions of people watching. What should she do? What could she do?

Amber. Twigs. Fire. Wisteria thought about that as she absentmindedly got on the platform. Whatever it took, she was going to win. She had to, for her parents.
The stylist smiled at her. She looked gorgeous by his words. Of course, deers were pretty before they got shot and slaughtered. That's all they were now. Deer waiting to be hunted. The black-haired girl got a decent score, but being a District 8 meant she was screwed when the Careers came.
But of course the stylists weren't thinking about it. No one really did except for the higher-numbered districts. It was a punishment, an eternal one. Putting kids against what was a rebellion that broke down the District 13. Killing and putting little twelve year olds in it, that was what bugged her the most.
'Douglas... Oak.. Pine..' She thought to herself. Her long black hair was pulled back into a braid. Thank goodness for that. She flipped the long ribbon connected to it in the back and took a deep breath. Her strategy was to stay hidden, then come out into the final numbers. But when has anyone won like that. Luck was her only ally now. No, maybe luck had gone away like Latvia from Poland, whatever they were. This was her.

Rose stood on the platform in her personal room. It wasn't very clean down here, and it smelled like dirt. She hoped that meant the arena would be full of woods. Or at least not full of water, she would be out of the game very fast if that was the case. She sighed when her stylist started refixing her hair.... For the fifth time since she left the training area. Her hair was so thick it kept falling out of the ribbon. Her stylist was a short older man with gold hair and really creepy fish eyes. He smiled and stepped back. "Perfect."
Andrew flinched away from his stylist again. "I said DON'T touch the hair! It's fine the way it is!" He hated every part of this. He especially Hated his stylist, and how they just wouldn't leave him alone. With a final swat at his stylist, he stepped up on the podium that would take him to the games.
