The 68th Hunger Games

Finale

The next day came just as fast as it went the night before. He could feel all the pressure and anxiety from what he had done and what he will have to do. He picked up his axe and his remaining 3 knives and waited till something happened to indicate the finale would occur. He couldn't stop rubbing at his suit where the drops of blood were. He wanted to rid himself of the memories that had happened within the games. He wanted out and to be free from the clutches of the capital. This was just wishful thinking. Jordan knew that if he won the games he would be an object of the capital until he died. Finnick was a great example of this. Even at 16 he would be used by rich capital citizens for their own desires. But Jordan knew that if he were to turn out like victors from outer districts that drink and give up on all life he would be able to escape this. Jordan almost didn't want to see his family in fear of them not recognizing what he had become. Somehow a 15 year old from 7 who's only training before the games was an axe throwing contest with his siblings, made it all the way to the finale of the games. But the journey of the games would just start if he won his way out of this arena. Jordan felt a breeze from behind him. He looked back to see a massive wave forming not to far from the outsides of the islands. This was it it was time for the finale. Jordan waded into the water up to his waist and started to walk to the cornucopia. This was possible due to the water around the arena being pulled from the islands and center to create the tsunami on the outside. As he treaded to the cornucopia the wave hit the islands from the back and they all started flooding. Jordan increased his speed at which he walked. He heard a distant scream coming from the island he was just recently on and turned back in time to see the whole island getting engulfed in water. Not a minute passed after the scream before a canon went off in the distance. The picture of the tribute from 3 showed in the sky. There was Juniper and Angie left remaining Jordan couldn't remember the boy from 3's name but it was something like Yang. Jordan had reached the outside edge of the cornucopia and slowly climbed into the island axe in hand. He walked slowly around the cornucopia's edge not showing himself to the other half of the island. He made it to the end and he was in the middle of the island hidden behind the cornucopia. He looked back at the wave which now was small after it engulfed all the other islands killing whoever was on them. He heard air ripping past him and felt a sharp pain skim the top of his ear. Jordon turned around swiftly as the Juniper launched her second knife Jordan quickly moved to the side as it dug into the side to the cornucopia. Jordan quickly lifted his foot up and stepped on the blade hoisting himself up on top of the cornucopia. He slightly cut his foot doing this but made his was on top. When he made it to the top of the cornucopia. He raised his head after he gained his balance and saw Angie standing terrified. Jordan stared daring her to move first so he could tell if she wanted to kill him or not. He quickly heard grunts behind him proving that Juniper was climbing up the cornucopia. Jordan turned to look and Angie ran climbing down the opposite side. Juniper was pulling herself up the last little bit before the cornucopia curved and became flat on top. Jordan tried to run but before he made it to the opposing side he got hit in his wrist with a throwing knife. He screamed in pain and fell to the ground dropping his axe. He knew that now he had to fight her. He looked at his wrist to see the knife in fully one side and coming out the other side about 2 inches. Juniper was now gaining ground and Jordan stood up readying to fight. She ran at him and Jordan dove sideways. She missed hitting him with her machete that he just realized she was carrying. Jordan tried to get up but before he could Juniper was coming at him again. He rolled out of the way tripping her as he rolled. As she fell down Jordan got on his feet. He grabbed his axe and charged at her. She was a quick thinker and ducked as he swung. She used a knife she had to slash across Jordan's leg. He dropped to his knees. She kicked him in the face forcing him to lay down. She climbed on top and started swinging her knife stabbing the cornucopia as Jordan tried his hardest to move his head to dodge the attacks. Jordan tried to feel around him for something he could use to kill her or at least get her off of him. He tried to move his right wrist and found that the knife was still inside his body. He pulled him arm free with all the power he had left. He pulled his arm back and swung his wrist into her head. The knife that stuck though his wrist slowly exited her brain as her body went limp and fell. A cannon sounded and Juniper's face appeared in the sky immediately. Jordan was bleeding out and knew he didn't have much time left before he either passed out or died. He mustered all his strength he had left to climb down the cornucopia. He fell on his ankle as he dropped off twisting it making it difficult to walk. He slowly but surely walked into the middle of the cornucopia island. As he made it to the middle he saw Angie hiding in the cornucopia. He looked at her face and she was terrified. Jordan couldn't help but think how much she deserved to go home. He slowly limped to where she was hiding. He was halfway there when he stopped.
"I don't want to kill you I want you to go home." Jordan couldn't believe what he was about to do. He pulled the knife out of his wrist and brought it to his neck. "Your going home."
"I'm sorry." Angie said as she turned pail. She started to shake almost begging him not to. This shaking continued and Jordan got confused. It she fell to her knees and started seizing. Jordan was in shock and was losing feeling in all of his body. He fell to his knees and crawled to her seizing body. As he made his way to her face he saw the familiar purple that indicated she had eaten night lock berries. As her body seized Jordan used the knife he was about to kill himself with to slowly enter the edge of her neck. He slowly cut through her skin and into her nerves. Her body soon stopped seizing and Jordan closed her frozen dead eyes. He silently cried as he cradled her body in his arms. Her cannon sounded not too long after Jordan let go of her lifeless body.
"The Victor of the 68th Hunger Games Jordan Curse."
Jordan was  in pain all over and felt himself going numb. He couldn't feel his feet or his fingers and felt his face get hot. He tried to stand but fell before he could ground his feet. He felt all consciousness flowing away from him and how dizzy he was. He slowly collapsed onto the ground completely unconscious.
His eyes flicked on and off as he went in and out of consciousness from a claw falling to his face to watching a doctor tend to his injury's.
