The Humping Games [The Hunger Games Fanfiction]

Awards

Caesar Fudgepickle smiled for all the cameras. His brilliant white teeth were blinding. That man was born to be on stage.

I was sitting next to Pita and Heyhey in the front row. Cinnabun was on the other side of Pita. Gavin was back in my room watching the show on tv. He was still exhausted from our epic love making. I imagined Prissy was watching back home.

It was everyone I loved, gathered to celebrate me winning the Humping Games.

“Don’t be nervous up there,” Heyhey whispered in my ear. “You’ve already won this thing. It’s your time relax and enjoy the moment.”

I smiled at him. He was cleaned up and wearing a tuxedo. He actually looked good. I think he was sober for once.

“Thanks Heyhey,” I said. “I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m really going to miss you.”

“I’m not going anywhere,” he said. “I’m from District 12, remember? This is only the beginning. Party at your place every night.”

“Oh god,” I mumbled.

“The winners of the 69th Humping Games,” Caesar shouted. “Katlick Eversweet and Pita Breadman. Come on up here.”

Pita took my hand and led me to the stage. The audience was cheering so loudly it hurt my ears. I couldn’t believe it was over. So much had changed during the past few weeks in my life. I felt my eyes start to water as we took the stage.

“Well,” Caesar said to Pita, “how does it feel to win?”

Pita grinned nervously at the crowd.

“It’s amazing,” he said.

“And what about you, Katlick?” he asked. “Is there anything you’d like to say?”

I nodded. Fudgepickle handed me the microphone. I looked down and saw Heyhey and Cinnabun smiling up at me. This was my moment.

“I volunteered for the Humping Games because I wanted to be here,” I said. “It’s been my dream for as long as I can remember. To me, the Humping Games was a chance to explore myself – to experience forbidden things. Now I’ve had that chance, and it’s changed me. I became a woman inside that arena. Pita became a man inside of me.”

Pita threw his arms in air and the audience went wild. I waited for them to quiet down before I continued.

“We don’t have the right to get in on in the Districts. It’s against the law. I want to say, here tonight, that it’s time for a change.”

Caesar reached for mic. “That’s enough,” he said to me.

I moved the mic out of the way. I had more to say. Caesar grabbed my arm.

“Give me the damn microphone,” he growled.

Pita stepped forward and punched Caesar Fudgepickle right in the face. I gasped as Caesar fell to the floor of the stage. He crawled away, holding his bloody nose. Pita nodded for me to continue.

“I believe everyone has the right to get sexy,” I yelled. “I say we do something. I say we fight for the right to hump.”

Guards were running for the stage. Heyhey and Cinnabun both jumped from their seats and tackled them. My boys had my back.

“It’s time we come together and tell the world that we want to hump! Who’s with me?”

The crowd cheered louder than ever. I saw that others had joined in to stop the guards from getting to the stage.

“Grab someone tonight,” I shouted. “Get your freak on. They can’t stop us. My crotch is my own. I’m the only one who will decide when it’s sexy time!”

I slammed the microphone down on the stage. Take that bitches.
