and the victor of the 73rd hunger games is...
two years ago
It had been eighteen days since the 73rd Hunger Games first started. This year's games was eventful, with a girl singing at the reaping and two siblings fighting for the same district, which had never been heard of until now. While it was unheard of, it made the Capitol root for District 4; the Songbird and her charming brother.
Moana Blue and Connor Hercules had stuck together the whole games, refusing to leave each other's side. The two were too scared of losing each other, so they stayed together as a way to keep each other safe. No allies, just them. With the help from sponsors and their own talents, the two had made it to the final three, which is when things started getting a little too real for the Baird siblings. They both knew from the moment of the reaping that only one of them would make it out alive, but the thought was never truly real until now.
"Con" A fourteen year old Moana Blue says, catching the attention of her older brother "What happens if we make it to the final two? They're not going to let there be two victors."
"I'm not sure" Connor Hercules says with a sigh "We'll figure it out when it comes down to that, but for right now, try not to think about it, okay?" He says, making Moana Blue nod her head as the sun starts shining through the cracks of the rubble.
Their arena for the year was a crumbling city, which had no water supply, little to no food and many places to hide. The two had spent the majority of their times in different hiding spots, trying to keep their distance from the other tributes. However, there were some times where they were spotted, but they were the ones left standing.
"It's daytime" Moana Blue mentions "We should probably try to find something to eat; we haven't eaten in days."
"Okay, let's go" Connor Hercules says with a small smile as he stands up, holding his hand out to help his sister stand up.
The two had walked around the arena for a while, looking for something to eat. Moana Blue could tell that Connor Hercules was starving; not only because of the massive weight loss, but because he had given most of the food they had to Moana Blue. Being the oldest sibling, Connor Hercules felt the need to make sure that his sister was the one to survive. He never brought up that he planned to make sure that she was the one to make it out because he knew that Moana Blue would never let him sacrifice himself for her.
"Hey, I think I see something over there" Moana Blue says to her brother, before hearing the whooshing sound of an arrow, before turning around to see an arrow through her brother's chest "Con!" Moana Blue shouts before running over to her brother with tears in her eyes and holding him in her arms "No, no, no, no."
"Mo" Connor Hercules whispers, barley being able to make out any words "You have to win" He says before closing his eyes.
"Connor?" Moana Blue asks, shaking her brother to wake him up "Connor!" Moana Blue shouts as tears fall from her eyes "No you can't leave me! You're supposed to win, not me! I'm not ready for you to leave me yet."
"I'm sorry about your brother" Jax, the boy from District 1 says to the younger girl. Jax and Connor Hercules were the two best tributes that year, with them both having the best odds to win.
"You're not sorry" Moana Blue says, glaring at the boy as she picks up the brick that was lying next to her.
"I have to do what I need to so I can win, but don't worry, you'll join him soon" Jax says with a shrug as he goes to grab another arrow, making Moana Blue charge at the boy, tackling him to the ground in rage.
One thing to know about Moana Blue is that she's never been a violent person. She's always believed that there are smarter ways to avoid conflict, and if she could use them, then she would. But right now, with her brother dying in her arms, she felt nothing but rage and saw nothing but red. So, the girl did the first thing she thought of and started repeatably hitting Jax in the face with the brick in her hand until she could no longer recognise his face. It was something that she wasn't proud of, but she did what she had to so she could avenge her brother.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the victor of the seventy-third Hunger Games is Moana Blue Baird from District Four" Moana Blue hears announced, making her stop hitting the boy, walking back over to Connor Hercules' lifeless body before sitting down, holding him in her arms once again.
"I love you Connor" Moana Blue says as her tears fall onto his face "I'll never forget you, ever."
