Silvia Moon presents herself on stage, the Capitol citizens applauding her beauty. And of course, they shout impatiently for Draco Thorne, ready for the interview with the head Gamemaker.

Silvia smiles and announces, "Let's welcome our head Gamemaker, Draco Thorne!"

Draco strides out on stage, his glossy white tuxedo glistening in the fluorescent lights. He smiles slightly, brushing his blue bangs to the side, allowing his piercing blue eyes sparkle.

"Hello Silvia, it's nice to see you again!" He says, taking a seat across from her. He crosses his legs, sitting comfortably in the white, plush chair.

"We have many questions for you Draco." Silvia says, grinning widely, allowing her pearly white teeth shine.

Draco giggles slightly. "Well it's nice to know I'm loved by our beloved Capitol." Draco says, smirking. The crowd claps horrifically, but he stays calm and cool as he always does.

"Let's get right to it, shall we? Which of the tributes surprised you the most?" Silvia questioned.

"Well I was surprised to have a blind kid in the mix of our tributes, Casimir Elmwood from District Eight. But in the games itself, I would say Daniel Stone. He was obviously a career, but I was shocked to see him be a lone wolf instead of joining the career pack. He could have used their skills to get further in the games. His lack in strategy is possibly the reason why he perished." Draco says, elaborating on the subject.

"Well if Daniel didn't have the best strategy, than who did?" Silvia asks.

"Well I would say a lot of tributes had interesting strategies. However, I feel that the best strategy was Jude shadow from district Five. He formed a large alliance, having them try to take out the career pack. He used a lot of his alliance members as mere pawns to take out his competition. His strategy was well thought through and seemed to succeed for the most part." Draco says, smirking slightly. Although he didn't sponsor Jude, he had high hopes for him, knowing he had lots of potential.

"Well he was a promising tribute. But everyone loves a good underdog. Who do you feel was the underdog this year?" Silvia asks, everyone getting more interested with every word Draco says.

"I would have to say Casimir Elmwood from District Eight. Although he did not make it far, everyone was shocked that he made it passed the bloodbath. He even managed to get a sponsor. He was the true underdog this year." Draco announces. The crowd cheers, missing Casimir. Many liked this blind boy, but he unfortunately perished.

"Although Casimir didn't make it far, was there a dead tribute who you felt should've gotten further?" Silvia Moon questions.

Draco thinks for a moment, unsure of his answer. But finally, he let's his words flow from his mouth: "I think many expected Canvas Azure to make it far, but she died highly early. However, there was a tribute I was fond of but she died right before the final eight, which was Violet Crest from district Nine."

"Is that the death you were most surprised by?" Silvia asks, keeping the interview going.

"Actually I was a bit shocked that Adelaide died in Oblivion. She was a fast runner and stayed close to the cemetery for most of the games, so I expected for her to survive. But she did not manage to make it to the safe haven." Draco says, sighing slightly. He took an interest in young Adelaide. She made the games quite interesting.

"Do you think she was the most vicious tribute?" Silvia asks, continuing the conversation on Adelaide.

"Personally, I do. She seemed to enjoy to torture others and slaughter her competition." Draco answered honestly.

"So, what was your favorite twist in the games?" Silvia Moon asks. Draco thinks hard, unsure of which his creations were the best.

"Although I enjoyed the yellow-eyed puppets and watching every tribute scurry in panic in Oblivion, I personally enjoyed the finale. The cemetery and crows were there from the beginning, and I doubt anyone expected for death to be the finale." Draco smirks, tossing his bangs to the side. He was quite confident and pleased with his creations and twists.

"Were you surprised by the victor?" Silvia asks, changing the topic entirely.

"I was not. I sponsored Kat from the very beginning. Yes, I will admit I was a bit worried she would die with my twists, but I knew she would come out on top in the end. Confidence is everything. And Kat understood how confidence is key to victory, which could be a good reason why she became victor." Draco answers, smirking. He loved Kat and was glad this over-dog became victor.

"Now for the question we have all been waiting for, will you be hosting another games?" Silvia asks, leaning in slightly.

"I have been thinking about it, and I have decided to do this again. Not only do I enjoy it, but I love being able to mess with the tributes as much as possible." Draco says grinning. Thoughts roam wild of possible twists in the upcoming games he will be hosting. He is going to enjoy himself very much.

"Well, that's all folks, see us again next year!" Silvia announces. Silvia waves goodbye, as Draco stares endlessly into the camera. And with that, the broadcast ends.
