Advertisement
Piper Papillon’s POV:
‘’ Hello Panem! Now that the interviews have finally concluded, we can commence with the more exciting events! Tomorrow evening, the tributes will attend a feast where they will find out their pairings for the Games and then for the follow few days, they will train for the arena.
For the first time ever, you the citizens of Panem will be able to place bets on the tributes for the training sessions. You’ve seen their Reapings, you’ve heard their interviews, now it is time to place your bets!
Here’s what you have to do, we want you to send us in two names. We want your opinion on who will be the highest scoring male and female tributes in the training sessions that will take place in a few days. So please, send in the name of a single male and a single female tribute in order to be in with the chance to win a very, very special prize!
We are asking that there is only one entry per person and all entries must be sent into us on or before the third day of training, just before the tribute scores are announced. I cannot tell you the prize yet, however I can tell you that it will give you a very exclusive look at this year’s Games and I promise you, you will not be let down!
So please, send in your entries as soon as possible, until tomorrow evening, I’m Piper Papillon and that was your Capitol Update!’’

The Ultimate Supporter
Mona stood there, her body has stopped shaking as she stared at Sarah with no expression. “... do I have to set a goal?” Mona asked quietly. “Yes, if you do not then you will not be allowed to play Road Builder.” “...why? Why do we have to set a goal?” “This game is about inspiring people to work hard towards something that they wish to achieve. Don’t you have something you wish to achieve too ma’am?” “... I… do.” “What is your goal then ma’am?” “My goal… my goal is to become the ultimate supporter.” Feelings rushed back into Mona’s eyes as she clenched both her fists hard. “I want to help others succeed. I don’t need to be the main character. I want other people to be the main character.” Mona yelled as tears began to stream down her face. “I just… I just want to feel needed again.” Mona sniffled. Sarah looked at her with a soft expression on her face. “Is ‘I want to become the ultimate supporter’ your final choice?” Sarah asked. Mona bit on her lip as tears continued to stream down her face. She slowly nodded her head. “Alright then… this goal has been registered onto your avatar. You will soon spawn into a town and began your journey.” Sarah smiled, her eyes illuminating warmth to Mona. Mona nodded her head understanding as she wiped away the tears. A blue circle appeared around her as numbers counting down from ten appeared in front of her. 10… 9… 8… “By the way ma’am.” Sarah said. 7… 6… “Yes?” 5… 4… “I am sure you will achieve that goal, and to guarantee that, I give you my blessings.” 3… “What?” 2… “Enjoy your time in Road Builder.” 1… ********* Please point out if you notice any mistakes so that I can fix it. Also, because I re-edit this a lot so the chapters are going to come out very slowly(and because the blue tables take a while to do). Any comments and reviews are welcomed and are appreciated! Thanks for reading!

Beware: Edgy. Gory, and very very very bloody. You didn't expect that, huh? Normally, people have things they want to achieve in life. Goals. Achievements. A legacy. Having kids. Wives, waifus.

What's left in life, for the chronically lazy? Watch anime and play games all day? Take up writing as a hobby? Nah. Let's let life happen to us! There's no need to fight back.
