The Games
Day 1-4

When the gong sounded, Freya froze with fear, but after coming to her senses, she aimed for some water. Although she tripped over the dead body of Spring (6) she saw the carnage occurring around her and instead of going for the water, she grabbed some apples next to where she had landed, before scrambling to her feet and running for her life.

Freya spent the first few days walking as far as possible from the career pack, who had set up camp in the cornucopia. Like many other tributes, she was affected by the intense heat, searching for water along the way, but to no avail. She persevered by eating the apples, therefore sucking out the juice from the fruit, but this method quickly ran out and she ate her last apple on day three.

In a rare move for the games, each tribute was allocated a bottle of water on the third day, which was placed in the cornucopia. Although Freya was extremely tempted by this, she knew that this would almost certainly lead to death at the hands of the careers, She was right, with seven tributes being slaughtered whilst trying to grab their water and only one tribute, Jerome (3) actually managing to get out of the cornucopia alive and with his water

Day 5

After starting to experience grave symptoms of dehydration after several days without water, Freya came across Jerome and spotted his bottle of water, She waited for the right moment to steal it and luckily for her, he was attacked by a screaming chimpanzee. As he tried to defend himself, Freya spotted the bottle that Jerome had accidentally kicked in her direction whilst he was being clobbered by the chimp. She grabbed the water and sprinted in another direction.

Day 6-7

After many surviving tributes were still going insane from thirst, a tropical storm was triggered by game-makers in order to give these dehydrated tributes a chance of survival. Being deft in the use of materials, Freya used the branches from different trees in order to create a makeshift shelter. The storm also allowed fruit to flourish, which allowed her to eat.

Day 8-14

One Evening, Roster (12) begged to be let into Freya's shelter in exchange for his spear. She accepted and Roster shared lots of information with her, such as the careers having turned on each other after their supplies had been blown up by Solaris (5) and the fact that there were only a maximum of five tributes remaining. They had an alliance for 6 days, but on the night of day 14, Whilst Roster slept, Freya now realized that there was a chance that she could actually win and so she killed Roster with the spear on the night of day fourteen.

Day 15

The next morning, Freya tracked where the chimpanzees were resting, whilst being careful not to alert their attention to her location. Eventually, the two remaining careers, Remus and Cleo (2) found Freya and chased her through the jungle, but she deliberately ran near the chimpanzees' lair.

At first the chimpanzees hunted her, but then saw the much larger tributes were chasing her, they immediately turned and went for these career tributes instead. Despite managing to slay one chimpanzee each, Remus and Cleo were no match for the whole troop, with the chimpanzees squashing them to the ground and leaving Freya to escape to victory.

After the Games
After winning, Freya returned to District 8 and opted to live a quiet life, where she rarely left the victor's village.
