VDA's December Tribute Games

These will be insta-games, and I think there will be no sign-ups.

Yeh John, I kinda copied you.

Day 1 - Start of the Bloodbath (Overview)
The platform with the tributes rise into the arena. Some of them open a wide smile, while the weak ones just frown and look the castle around. They are on a big field on the center of a monument. They can run to outside, but there are nothing, but some woods and big mountains. Some stairs appear on the right corner and the tributes can reach some special restrooms. The camera shows Waldo, and then, it cuts off to Shirlee. Then, some water fountains next to the restrooms and some food hidden on a big kitchen. It shows an enormous garden inside the castle, on a hidden place between some rooms. The ceiling of the place brights and the light reflects on the big and gold horn stucked on the center, the Cornucopia.

The tributes leap off their platforms, spreading their hopes of surviving around the arena. And finally, we can discover who are the big threats.

Day 1 - Bloodbath (Shirlee Krystina)
I zoom in the Cornucopia, reaching the golden horn before the other tributes. I cross all the main area of the Cornucopia pavement straight towards my sword. Hank (2) arrives at where I am some seconds after me, and I high-five him.

"Take out the district 5 tributes. They are two idiots," He murmurs while he retrieves a tomahawk inside the weapons pile. I nod, and I return to the chaos.

As I nod to the left side, I see the idiot guy from 0 dying with a scythe on the back. I gaze at the attacker, and I see the tributes from 9 laughing. They flee away to the fields while I see the other desperate tributes reaching the Cornucopia and some of them are already with supplies. Most of the tributes are sprawling around the castle, so it will be easy to find them.

I turn to behind and I see the two stupid tributes from 5 grabbing one trident each. I have almost sure that both suck using this weapon, but I don't know why they picked up. I start to run in their direction, but Rista (1) arrives at them first. He raises up his right fist and punches the girl, but the boy throws the trident at his stomach. The district 5 tributes look to the side and they sigh of relief, thinking that no one saw it. They were pretending all the time... They are good!

"BITCH!" Someone shrieks, pushing me to the pavement. I rise up my sword, but the attacker keeps it on my hand. I start to get upset...

I punch the attacker and I see that the bizarre Capitol boy is attacking me. Oh, he did the worst thing ever. He advances at my chest, but I kick his back. He literally jumps off me and lays right next to my sword. I catch the weapon first and I open an evil grin at him.

"Don't..." he stammers while I just crossthe sword through his abdomen. I hear his murmurs and I smile quickly. My first kill, great.

I look around and I see the empty Cornucopia with just the career tributes sitting there. I march out and I sit down on a black crate. I take the blood stains off the sword and I look the faces of the other careers. I can, for sure, bet that none of them killed another person.

'''BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! '''I stare at the sky, waiting for more cannons to sound. I open an evil expression and they gaze at my face.

"JUST THREE DEATHS!?" I shout and the girl from 7 facepalms herself. The girl from 1 sounds nice, but too girly. Hank is extremely skilled and he is the best company. The district 4 tributes are good too, and the girl from 7 is pathetic and annoying.

"And you were the only career who killed someone. Also, we lost Rista." Announces Celica (4), the girl from 4. I sit on the crate again.

Day 1 - Bloodbath Aftermath (Kenton Bredro's POV)
Our whole alliance is still alive! This is incredible, and we are really happy. We keep walking through the bedrooms of the highest place on the castle. We are getting as farthest away as we can from the career alliance and from the Cornucopia pavement. We pass by many bedrooms and we all ignore it because there is no survival skills enough. We enter on a small bedroom and I immediately go to the bed. I jump over it and I check what I got on the bloodbath. Just some wire and a water canteen.

"Everybody putting the supplies at this crate that I got," Emile (13) announces while I throw the wire at the crate. I hide the water canteen on the left side of the bed, I am not sharing it with the other tributes in the alliance. Then, I sit on the bed again.

"Let's count..." Karia (13) speaks, looking around. "Who got these bacon sheets and rope?"

"It was me." Jeffoham (6) says, staring at the ground. He is nice though, but extremely shy. He is strong too, in both, physically and mentally.

"I got the wire." I say, pretending that I grabbed just this on the bloodbath. "Sorry..."

"That is alright, Kenton." My district partner, Silver (8) says while she wraps her arms around my shoulder. "I got bread and throwing knives."

"I got a machete and paddles," Louise (3) says, surprising us. She seems a fragile girl, but she is actually surprising we all.

"Nothing." Marquis (14) stutters.

"Karia and I got axes, water canteen, and toast." Emile (13) says. We all go to each part of the bedroom and I lay on the bed.

Silve (8) crawls to under my bed and I try to discover who died. I am so excited for the night, where I will discover who were the three tributes who died.

"Any suggestions for plans?" Karia (13) asks to the alliance while I respond for all the alliance.

"WAIT FOR TOMORROW, GOD DAMNIT!"

Day 1 - Night (Ulven Fonde's POV)
I am sitting over some shrubs on the fields area. I am on an alliance with the boy from 7, the district 9 tributes, the district 10 girl, the district 11 tributes and my district partner. It is almost mid-night, and we have not sleep during all the day. I wonder to myself why the gamemakers still did not put "the fallen" yet. Shigeta (7) and Tyree (9) return from the "hunting".

"Sadly, we got nothing. It is creepy outside, and we were afraid of the careers," Shigeta (7) explains while Garia (10) and Hawke (11) sit next to me.

"Where is Enedina, Treewo and Ezra?" I ask to them and they two point out to a huge tree. I can see almost nothing from here and the darkness is creeping me out. Garia (10) is highly worried about them and I don't understand the reason for a while.

"Why are you afraid?" Hawke (11) asks, taking the words off my mind.

"Can you see that Enedina and Treewo are usually chatting?" She asks, pointing out to the tree where Ezra (12) is collecting some berries while Enedina (9) and Treewo (11) whisper to each other. We can see clearly that they are not paying attention at Ezra (12).

"What do you mean?" I question her.

"They are not very trustable." She responds and I stare at the tree. Treewo (11) grabs his knife and stands up next to Ezra (12). I need to save my district partner.

"EZRA, WARNING!" I shriek and Ezra (12) gets confused, and Treewo (11) pushes him off the tree. Ezra (12) falls on the ground and Treewo (11) goes away. Enedina (9) grabs a spear and drops it off the tree. The spear finds Ezra (12)'s back. BOOM!

Enedina (9) flees using the treetwigs as her support. I try to save Ezra (12), but it is too late. I start to cry over him, and Tyree (9) murmurs.

"That bitch Enedina fled without me..." He comments while the anthem chimes on the dark sky. We all gaze at it and the first faces of the died tributes begin to appear at the sky. The first one is the boy from 0, the one who seemed idiot. Then, one of the career tributes, the boy from 1 flashes at the sky. Then, Ezra's face appears and I frozen. I literally crumple to the ground, and the sleep invades my body. At the last time, I see the bizarre Capitol boy smiling at the sky. Great.

"It's time to sleep now!" Shigeta (7) shouts while everyone lays on the grass.

Day 2 - Morning (Tawanna Shanika's POV)
I wake up to the sound of some birds playing through the big trees and I let out an angry groan that scare the birds. They fly away and I change looks with the rest of my alliance. Our alliance is simple; just four tributes. It is me, Corma (10), Icia (14) and Christel (0). They all seem almost starving, even though, it is just the beginning of the second day in the arena. We managed to get just some apples, and we are hiding it until the time that we are almost dying.

"What should us do right now?" Corma (10) asks to the alliance and I stare again at the sky. We wait for the sponsor ballons come in our campsite and it takes around two hours. Then, we hear a good melody coming from the sky and we all extend the hands, but the sponsor ballon sits on Christel (0)'s lap. She happily opens the parachute, and sees three bottles of water. Icia (14) and I open wide eyes at the water and Christel (0) opens one bottle immediately.

We all take turns drinking some water. Icia (14) seems the most starving between we all, so she drinks a lot of water. We all stare at her, waiting for a reason.

"The Capitol treatment for the district 14 tributes is horrible," she speaks, while we hear a wind crshing through the woods. Oh no. The Gamemakers hate Icia (14) now.

"I don't know why they hate us instead of districts 0 and 13. I mean they were hiding for a long time and they are very against the Capitol," she continues with her speech and the wind rushes through our campsite again and again. It is getting heavier everytime she comments about the Capitol. I look at Corma (10), and he seems very scared with her words.

I walk up and I sit besides Corma (10), Icia (14) continues talking about how she hates the Capitol and I get closer of Corma (10)'s ear.

"Should we kill her?" I whisper in his ear and he gets surprised with my question. He turns my head to the side and replies:

"Not right now," he starts. "let's wait and if it starts to get repetitive, then we kill her and run away with Christel. We need Christel to get sponsor gifts..."

"That is alright. I understood." I finish while I see the noon coming on the arena.

Day 2 - Afternoon (Laure Veya's POV)
Waldo (5) and I sit hidden on a large restroom on the castle. There is water enough, but no food. But happily, we were able to collect a lot of supplies during the bloodbath. I bet that the Capitol is still surprised that we two are alive and Waldo (5) managed to kill a career tribute. EVerybody was thinking that we two were the most fragile targets in the arena, but at least, the other tributes keep thinking on that. I examinate our backpack and I realize that there is no medicines.

"Should we steal medicine from the career campsite?" I ask to Waldo (5) and he grins immediately. He takes his trident off the crate and I pick up another one for me. We exit the restroom and we head towards the main hall of the castle.

"Look over there!" Waldo (5) shouts while we see the careers going to hunt. We rush down the stairs and we invade their campsite.

"Go fast, Fredric!" We hear someone say coming from outside the stand and we stare at each other. The careers did retrn? I don't think so, but I want to check what is happening. We run off the stand and we find Fredric (3) working on a mine while the Capitol girl protects him.

"Could we help you two killing the careers?" I ask and they two cross eyes, Fredric (3) nods in agreement and Milissa (Cap) just makes a positive expression.

"What are you doing?" Waldo (5) questions and Milissa (Cap) points out to the re-actived mines of the pavement. We high-five they and Fredric (3) adjusts the mine for a short time after. When he puts the last line, he turns at us with a happy smile.

"Done!" He exclaims and Milissa (Cap) shoves her axe through his skull. He crumples to the ground with a big hole bleeding on his forehead. BOOM!

"It is a good way to make the Careers return," she says while we climb the stairs again. Everyone stands up in a position.

"Now, let's wait." I announce while the career tributes return to their campsite and see Fredric (3) died next to three mines. The dumb girl from 2 volunteers herself to check Fredric (3)'s supplies. She crosses the pavement and she puts her right foot over the mines. '''BOOM! '''A big explosion happens and it sends we three back to the wall. We run back to the restroom and we all high-five. Our plan was the biggest sucess ever. Oh no. We forgot the medicines, but well, we killed a career.

Day 2 - Night (Chi Villitoua's POV)
I have been paralyzed since Shirlee (2)'s death and I think I will keep this way for some hours. Two careers are already gone, and the other tributes are taking over the arena. The career alliance is falling down, so the other alliances are allowed to kill us whenever we want. Celica (4) and Hank (2) are examinating the mines to see if another one is active, as Melonie (1) is grabbing Fredric (3)'s supplies and preparing traps for them. Ashly (7) is sleeping with a tomahawk on the hand.

"What the hell if Melonie (1) doing?" She asks while her eyes flutter open. I turn my eyes at she putting the rest of Fredric's (3) supplies trapped by some type of rope. I think she can bombard the Cornucopia anytime she wants to do it.

"I will check it," I say, dismissing myself off Ashly (7)'s chat. I stand up next to Melonie (1). She stops putting traps around the Cornucopia when I arrive and she just gets blushed. I sit next to a mine and Melonie (1) gets up next to me.

Suddenly, the sky goes dark and the Capitol anthem begins to play. The melody is heavier and creppier than yesterday's. I don't know what happened.

"Wait..." she says.

Then, the fallen begins to appear. First, Shirlee (2)'s face shines the sky and all the career tributes gasp. She was the most important and brutal, she would be our leader. Then, we sigh as the boy from 3 disappears quickly. I have almost sure that he planted these mines on our camp.

"My plan will be executed right now; want to help me?" She asks while I shrug. She points to Ashly (7) sleeping and I open a smile.

"Sure." I reply while she explains the plan where we will kill Ashly (7). I make my position on the plan, and she nods, signaling the start of the plan.

"Oh my gosh, I think that a tribute is attacking us!" I shout to Ashly (7) and the other careers nod to her. Melonie (1) keeps with her rope at the hand while Ashly (7) approachs. Melonie (1) mouths a countdown to me and when Ashly (7) is approaching us, she releases the rope.

"FUC-" Ashly (7) begins to shout her last words while the explosive sends her to the sky. '''BOOM! '''The other careers laugh and Melonie (1) celebrates.

Day 3 - Morning (Karia Alberthe's POV)
While Emile (13) wakes me up, he gives me a toast and I eat it quickly. Emile (13) is so good for me... I would die without him by my side right now. I take a look on my alliance. We made pratically nothing but chat yesterday. It is getting boring, just sit here and eat our supplies. We all will go hunt today, to see if we get some things for the rest of the days.

Emile (13) and I wake everybody up and we explain their roles today. "Emile (13), Kenton (8) and I are the strongest ones, so we will go to the fields today." Kenton (8) nods of happiness, while the other tributes immediately sigh of relief.

"Marquis and Silve will collect all the supplies that they find through the hallways," I say while Marquis (14) walks and stands up next to Silve (8).

"Louise and Jeffoham will stay and take care of the bedroom, alright?" I say and everybody agrees. We catch some weapons and the ones who will leave to the hallway or fields head off the bedroom. Marquis (14) and Silve (8) go to other bedrooms searching for supplies, as Emile (13) and I rush down the stairs along with Kenton (8). We enter on the fields and I grab my knife.

Well, Emile (13) and I invited Kenton (8), not because he is strong, we want to kill him and make the alliance believe that another one did it for us. Emile (13) keeps on the front row with Kenton (8), pretending that they are my "protectors".

"NOW!" I shout while Kenton (8) looks to the side and Emile (13) kicks his belly. He spits blood on the ground and I toss of my knives at his heart. He stares at Emile (13) and I while he crumples slowly to the ground. '''BOOM! '''I retrieve my knife off his heart and Emile (13) and I return to the bedroom silent.

"OH MY GOSH, GUYS. YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED THERE." Emile (13) says, pretending that he is upset. He says that a wolf mutt attacked Kenton (8) when they were attacking the cub, and he and I left of afraid. Everybody in the alliances nods.

"Sorry," I whisper to Silve (8) while she starts to cry. She gives me everything she got through the bedrooms, a piece of plastic and wire. Good enough.

"Kenton was long gone anyway," Silve (8) comments on my ear and I embrace her. I can't believe that I killed someone from my alliance. My district hates me now.

Day 3 - Afternoon (Treewo Lanentin's POV)​​
Enedina (9)'s leg is hurting a little. Her wound is almost closing up, and the blood is not pouring off her leg like it did before. We keep sitting at the treetops, just waiting something to happen and then, we can run away. Enedina killed two other tributes by now, but none of them were a big threat. I mean, Damion was one of the weakest tributes in the entire arena, while Ezra was not the sharpest knife in the toolshed. But anyway, she is one of the biggest threats around the arena.

"Treewo," she whispers while she moves her left hand over the bloody knee. She is showing a worried face and I start to get worried with her.

"What Enedina?" I ask back, with a low voice.

"Can we join other tributes in another alliance?" She says without looking back at me. She keeps staring at her knee and I put my arms around her shoulder.

"No," I say. "I will not join another alliance. Most of the alive tributes are dumb, and I will not die with them. I mean, the any alliance who is good enough for us is hidden on the castle, and we will not reach at their place soon." I finish, being a bit rude and mean.

"Oh alright, I did not want to be mean." She says calmly while we two open a smile and we laugh wickedly. We are faking our relationship to see if we get some sponsors of the Capitol, but no parachutes are coming and we need to hurry it up.

"I need medicine for my leg, so so so bad!" Enedina (9) shouts at the sky, waiting for a sponsor ballon with the medicine that she wants. But surprising us, nothing except for a warm breeze comes. She opens an angry expression and I put my hands on her shoulder.

"Calm down, Enedina." I whisper.

"I do what I want, Treewo and bye! You are dumb like our past alliance," she says, pushing me off the tree while she starts to use the treetwigs as her support. My back is hurting very much, but I will not die soon. Even with this horrible wound, I have strenght enough to survive one or two more days here on this grassfield. Damn Enedina (9), why did I trust on her?

"DAMN YOU ENEDINA, I WILL GET MY FREAKING REVENGE. WAIT FOR ME," I shout to the trees and I hear the breeze rushing again.

Day 3 - Night (Tyree Jevtic's POV)
I stare at my alliance partners working underneath the tree where I am sitting. I just let the time go away while my district partners whisper about a plan to take the rest of the careers out. The end of the day is coming, so I think we will attack just tomorrow. Shigeta (7), my best friend on the entire alliance, climbs the tree and stands up next to me.

"Time to attack," he whispers.

"Now!?" I ask back.

"Yeah, we need to team up with another alliance on the path, so we are going today." He says, jumping off the tree and I do the same. We all hurry up and put our supplies inside small backpacks and then, we race towards the Cornucopia pavement.

"Should we attack now?" Ulven (12) asks.

"Nope!" I reply, angry. Why my allies think we actually stand a chance on the night against the career alliance? I mean, they have lighers and weapons and we have a rope and wire plan. How stupid! I wish Enedina (9) would be with me now.

"Let's just prepare everything now." Hawke (11) announces and Garia (10) nods in agreement. Shigeta (7) and Ulven (12) catch the rope and they circle the Cornucopia while Garia (10) and I place the supplies to bombard the plates and make the careers blow off.

Just when I finish the placement of the things that we will use against the careers, the anthem begins to chime in. The first face who appears on the sky is Ashly (7)'s. Wow! I am very surprised! Ashly (7), for sure, was the biggest threat on the arena and she would win these Games easily. Then, we see Kenton (8). He was not expected to win at all, so I just forget it all. The other guys in my alliance seem relieved that finally Ashly (7) is gone and our plan could be a sucess.

"Now, the time arrived..." Garia (10) gasps and we place the tributes around the arena. I catch an empty backpack to throw at the plates and I start to run towards the Cornucopia. Hank (2) looks at Garia (10) and I arriving and he opens a wide smile.

Oh no. BOOM!

Day 4 - Morning (Corma Boris' POV)
"Garia!" I let out while Tawanna (6) and Icia (14) comfort me. We are helping the other alliance to kill off the reminiscent career tributes, and we are about to perform our part on the plan. Christel (0) comes with some matches and an enormous blanket.

"We need to avenge Garia," I comment while we rush down the stairs and the other alliance is about to do the first part. Tyree (9) throws his backpack at one mine and it blows off. The careers got scared while some clothes fall off the sky and hit the plates.

'''BOOM! BOOM!'''

A big explosion happens and two bodies fly up on the sky. Tawanna (6) and I hurry up to perform our actions while we see Tyree (9)'s and Chi (4)'s bodies completely destroyed and lying on the ground. They died horribly, even for arrogant people...

"What are Icia and Christel doing?" She asks and she points out to they two running away to the woods. They left us, how could they...

Hawke (11), SHigeta (7) and Ulven (12) nod at us while they return to the woods. It is our first time now. We stalk at the career tributes. They seem confused with what just happened. Well, there are just Hank (2), Melonie (1) and Celica (4) alive. Well, they have to die.

"Ready?" Tawanna (6) asks me and I nod in agreement.

"Alright," she replies back while we two run on the Cornucopia and she places the blanket over the careers' supplies. Melonie (1) sees her and runs to block the attack, but I grab one of my machetes and I run to the Cornucopia.

'''BOOM! '''

As the fire starts to take over the Cornucopia, Tawanna (6)'s head is rolling off her body and it tops next to me. I get scared and I shove my machete on Melonie (1)'s back. '''BOOM! '''She crumples to the floor and I retrieve my machete off her body.

Hank (2) and Celica (4) run and I race away from the Cornucopia towards the woods. My allies are gone, what will I do now!?

Day 4 - Afternoon (Christel Astrae's POV)
"Here is a good place to stay for now," Icia (14) says while we set camp inside a bedroom next to the restroom of the castle. I put Corma (10)'s and Tawanna (6)'s old supplies inside one dark crate that we dragged. We place it under the bed.

I cannot believe that we actually betrayed our old allies. Tawanna (6) and Corma (10) were extremely friendly with us, and they did not nothing to break us apart. I actually prefer them over Icia (14), which is really annoying and just comments about how she hates the Capitol and how her district is the one with more people hating on it. Next time, I will select better allies to escape with.

"Christel, do you like our location at the castle?" She asks me and I nod in agreement. I look around and I see the heavy walls surrounding us.

"Hmm... It is good to stay for one day," I reply. I give some slaps on the wall, and it keeps paralyzed and strong. Well, it will be good staying here for some hours.

"Our supplies are enough?" I question her while she digs on the dark crate, searching for supplies. She takes three bacon sheets off the dark crate and I palm one. She continues staring at the bacon sheets, and I nod, knowing what she means.

"No," she whisper.

"I had one idea." Icia (14) claps and I comb my hair. I put some lipstick on and I walk to the center of the restroom. Then, I gasp.

"I would be thankful if someone gives me some food and water for the rest of the arena," I whisper while a beautiful melody plays through the bedroom. Icia (14) celebrates and we both extend the hand at the sky, waiting for gifts from sponsors.

We keep with the hands up, but nothing comes. We keep waiting for two hours or more, and nothing comes to us, not even a bottle of water.

"Damn it!" I shout, and we hear footsteps.

"THERE!" I hear someone screaming from outside the bedroom and I lock eyes with Icia (14). Oh my gosh, what will happen?

Day 4 - Night (Millissa Zeroda's POV)
My alliance and I have been hiding for the entire third day and most of the time today. But now, it is time for a quick hunting and we found something coming from a bedroom which is next to the restroom where we are setting a camp for us right now.

"THERE!" Laure (5) shouts while Waldo (5) opens quickly the door of the bedroom. I grab my axe and I place it on my right hand, just waiting for the attack. Two girls scream and shout while we get on the bedroom. They hug each other and stare at us.

"Please don't kill us," Christel (0) shrieks.

"Why would we do that?" Laure (5) retorts, ruthless. At the first time, I thought the district 5 tributes were good, but non-skilled, but they were the contrary. They are mean and ruthless and they only like each other. I do not even know why they accepted me on the alliance, though.

"To make an alliance, there are just two or three career tributes alive, so an alliance would be very good right now." Icia (14) finishes and I cross eyes with my alliance.

"How do you know that some careers died today?" I question they two and they look each other.

"Alright, it is a long story," Christel (0) begins while my alliance sits on the floor of the restroom. Icia (14) stays away from us and the district 5 tributes smile at her. "We were originally in an alliance with Tawanna from 6 and Corma from 10. We were invited by another alliance to participate on a career takeout. So during the execution of the plan, we saw Chi from 4 dying and possibly one of the other cannons were a career's. So after that, Icia and I ran away to here."

"SOunds cool for now," I assure my alliance and they cross eyes. Waldo (5) blinks quickly at Laure (5). No one can imagine what they are actually thinking about.

"Ok," Laure (5) says while we hear the anthem coming on the arena. I open my sleeping bag and I enter on it. I place myself next to the door and the tributes' face start to appear at the dark ceiling of the bedroom. The girl from 1 creeps up at the sky. Wow! The first district completely wiped out is a career one, interesting. Then, we see Chi from 4. Well, the girls were right. Two careers died and there are just two alive. Then, we see Tawanna (6) and Icia (14) facepalms herself. Christel (0) gasps and Tyree (9) and Garia (10) complete the list of the dead tributes and the ceiling goes dark again.

I sleep on the sleeping bag and I keep thinking of what Laure (5) and Waldo (5) are planning about. While my sleep goes away, I hear a wind rushing through our bodies. Wait, but there are walls...
