1st Hunger Games

Weather: Very Sunny

Length of the Games: 4 hours, 46 minutes

Arena: Old amphitheatre

Victor. Cassius Heath (age 16): District 2

The very first games were an unchartered experience for both Capitol and the fighting tributes. For this year, the cream of the Capitol were allowed to watch this incredible spectacle from the seating within the arena.

The games
Like most other tributes, Cassius was unsure of how this event would play out. When the gong sounded, he ran forth and grabbed a sword, whilst several other tributes (especially from the outer districts) stood unmoving and dazed, still unsure of whether or not this was a sick prank from the Capitol.

However when Cassius plunged his sword through the stomach of Liliana (11) and hence, achieved the first kill ever in the history of the games, those tributes who had not yet taken a weapon or fled, sprang into action as they quickly realised that this was not a nightmare, but in fact a harsh reality of what the next few hours would entail.

A total of five tributes were killed in the first five minutes, mainly at the hands of Cassius. Elektra (3), Plankton (4) and Cassius chased the remaining tributes into the tunnels, as the excited crowd cheered on.

Occasionally, tributes would be chased out of the tunnels and back into the scorching heat of the arena before being slain, much to the amusement of the audience.

Shortly after killing Bruce (12) within the main arena, Cassius was very nearly stabbed through the back with an axe by Elektra, but a nearby group of the crowd who had become his avid supporters screamed warnings at Cassius, which alerted him to dodge Elekta's axe, before he stabbed her through the heart with his sword.

By the time the only remaining tributes, Loom (8) emerged from a tunnel, Cassius easily slayed her, thereby winning the games.

After the games
Although they were not even televised, these first games were declared a success by President Ravenstill and rumours of the bloodshed spread quickly around the Capitol.

After winning these games, Cassius returned to District 2 as a hero and became a leading officer of the peacekeepers within his district.
