Panem

A Fatal Decision

District Four. Victor's Village Construction. Latier and Gaines. 

I don't know if the sunset has given this place a bad chill or it's just the place itself. I mean, how long have I been out of my district? Maybe a week? But, how did these people construct so fast?

The houses in the Victor's Village are in a perfect circle. I can count twelve of them. The purpose of these houses, what is it? I mean, already the district has damaged houses and everything, but I don't think that they are constructing it for the citizens. 

Latier says to me: 

- Jayson, this was in the draft too. 

- What do you mean? - I ask

- The Victor's Village. A complex of twelve houses in a perfect circle, for the sole purpose to give the Victor of The Hunger Games of the year, a place to live, with riches, glory and honor, and to be a beacon of hope for the districts for the uprising. 

- But wait, Snow hasn't even explained The Hunger Games and now this?!

- Yes Jayson. It is a horrible way to...

Suddenly, we hear an explosion close to us. The thing is, is not a normal explosion. It is tear gas. Me and Latier run as fast as we can to my house. I cannot begin to describe what I have seen. After the Tear Gas, a huge explosion blew off in the Victor's Village. I knew it was intentional. When I arrive to my home, which is of wood, zinc ceiling and has a rusty door, I see a  man dressed in white and has a helmet on him. When we arrive in my living room, I grab my pistol and point it to the man. I yell:

- WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE?

- Senator Jayson Gaines of District Four, my name is Elliot Banks. I am the New Head Peacekeeper of District Four. I have an order directly from the Capitol for your immediate arrest because you were reported as disappeared from the scene of crime. Also, Senator James Latier will be arrested and prosecuted for Treason against President Coriolanus Snow and all of Panem for the act of defiance of getting private property, a.k.a, The Treaty of Treason's Draft. You two, need to come with me to the Train Station so we can transport you to The Capitol immediately. 

- I'm so sorry Head Peacekeeper Banks, but I will not fulfill this order. It was President Snow who killed all the other Senator's for the Power of Panem. 

- That is a grave accusation you are doing there Senator. Would you come with me to the Hall of Justice?

- I will. 

We walk through seven streets, until we get to the Hall of Justice of District Four. The Hall of Justice of our District is where I worked when I was a Senator. Is a building of four floors, with only two floors of office, one of a library and a attic. The walls are decorated with boats, fish and fishing rods and nets, with a peaceful look at a fisher in his boat in a lake. Of course, that is Lake Tiberia, the biggest one of our District. We walk through the labyrinth of halls, pass three doors until we arrive at the Mayor's Office and surprise, surprise:

- Madam President Coin. How are you? How did you get here? - I asked

- Senator Gaines, Senator Latier. Welcome to the Hall of Justice. Please, sit down. 

Politely, we sit down as we don't know if she is being watched. 

- Peacekeeper Banks, please, close the door behind us. 

- Yes Madam President - he says. 

She looks very different from the last time I saw her. She has a gray hair. The gray is more like platinum. The color of hair makes her look older than she is. She is  30 and know looks 50.
