BTS HUNGER GAMES AU

JOIN

Jimin sighs.
"Okay yes, I'll join you. I have never made pie though."
Namjoon smiles.
"You'll be fine. I'm not really a fan of pies, but when you're starving they're the best."
Yoongi and Jungkook both roll their eyes.
"Just call it for what it is, a revo-"
"Revolting pie? Rude."

Hoseok groans in pain as he touches his chest and Jimin rushes to him.
"Let me take care of that."
He takes the mixture he had made for his cheek and applies it on his exposed chest.
Hoseok grunts at the coldness but he's grateful.
He mentally thanks Yoongi for saving Jimin.

The Head Gamemaker watches carefully.
He doesn't understand what they're talking about but he's suspicious.
"Show me the tribute from District 2."
They zoom in on Jin.
Tatius gets closer to a microphone.
"It's your turn. Head South."
Jin nods.

It takes him an hour to find the other tributes. They all seem to have made an alliance.
Despite his weapons, he's definitely the weakest one.
But these are the Hunger Games and the tributes can't be all allies.
He doesn't know what to do.
Tatius speaks again.
"Don't kill."

Jin stays hidden and keeps an eye on them. He doesnt understand why they would tell him not to kill but he trusts the Capitol and does as told.
He sees something moving behind the tributes.
He's sure it's an animal, so he gets ready to fight.
But its not an animal.
It's Taehyung.

Jin is shocked.
He sees the boy he thought he killed approach the group with raised hands.
Yoongi has his arrow pointed at him and he's not shaking.
Jin doesn't understand. Did he actually kill him? Is the Capitol just messing with him?
But why would they?
He doesn't understand.

Taehyung takes a step forward, his hands still raised.
"I surrender."
Yoongi still has his arrow pointed at him while Namjoon looks at the tribute carefully.
No one wants to say anything but Jungkook breaks the silence.
"Does it mean the dead tribute was the one from District 2?"

Taehyung nods.
"Yes. I killed him."
Yoongi shakes his head and points at his chest.
"I don't trust you."
Taehyung smiles.
"You will not shoot it. You can't kill."
"Watch me."
He's about to shoot his arrow when Namjoon stops him.
"Don't. I want to listen to what he has to say."

Jimin stops massaging Hoseok's chest and looks worried.
Hoseok taps his shoulder in a weak attempt to cheer him up.
"I see you all made an alliance or at least it looks like that. Whats your plan?"
They dont think Namjoon is dumb enough to reveal the plan.
But he starts talking.

"We are planning on a mass suicide so there won't be a winner. Do you want to join?"
Taehyung's expression doesnt change.
The Head Gamemaker crosses his arms, confused and slightly pissed.
The tributes look at each other but stay silent.
Yoongi's arrow doesnt move.
The wind stops

"Suicide? That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard."
Namjoon takes a step towards Taehyung, who takes a step back and gets closer to a tree.
"Dumb? You think it's dumb?"
"The Capitol is powerful, more than you will ever know. I will not join you."
Yoongi speaks.
"Let me shoot."

"I said no!"
Namjoon snaps, scaring the ally, who does as told and takes a step back.
Jin watches the scene from afar, hidden between the trees and wonders what he's supposed to do.
He looks at the camera but the Head Gamemaker ignores him.
Namjoon speaks.
"Holograms can't die."

"Holograms?"
Everyone but Jungkook is confused. The youngest sighs.
"Nothing is real, everything is just holograms, you're eating holograms, the air you're breathing feeds you and so on. Dont make him listen to him again, please."
Namjoon isnt listening.
He's focused on Taehyung.
