At 12 PM, every TV across Panem changes to a broadcast of President Primrose Mellark, standing in front of a microphone on a stage.
Trying to change the channel doesn't work. Trying to shut off the TV doesn't work.
Outside, screens flicker with the image of the President.

"If you live in the original 13 districts, you know my face. Those in The Capitol, however, may not be as familiar with me. I haven't been as fair to The Capitol as I should've been from the start, so, let me to introduce myself. My name is Primrose Mellark, daughter of Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark. You might know my parents, as The old Capitol tried to have them killed in the Hunger Games not once, but twice. The late President Paylor abolished the Hunger Games because it was cruel and inhumane, but none of you in The Capitol thought that as you watched them kill and die for your amusement. She even turned the former site of the games into a tourist attraction.
On behalf of all of those who died in the games, I thought I should return the favor.
I've come to you today to announce the 77th Hunger Games. The Games will be hosted by District 12. As we speak, an area is being built between 12 and 13. In a week from now a reaping will commence for the children of The Capitol. No volunteering will be allowed. It will be televised for all of Panem to see, and attendance is mandatory. Refuse, try to disrupt the reaping, or flee, and you and your family will face severe punishments. As is tradition, all participants will be interviewed and have their skills judged by the gamemakers and the world . Betting and sponsoring will both be allowed.
Should there be a victor of the 77th Hunger Games, said individual will be exempt from any and all future reapings and games. I wish the children of the Capitol luck, and may they have a happy reaping."
Without another word President Mellark leaves the stage, leaving Panem in stunned silence.

After. . .
"How cruel," the people of District 1 whisper.
"She can't do that, can she?"
"It's what they deserve," District 13 cheers.
"President Mellark wasn't cruel enough, if you ask me."
The day after President Mellark's speech, peacekeepers arrive in The Capitol.

RULES:
1. One Paragraph Minimum
2. Third Person POV
3. No Godmodding, etc
4. Be Realistic
The new capitol of Panem is District 12.
"The Capitol" is still called that as a joke/out of disdain by the Districts.
The RP will start on the morning of the reaping.
There are no real winners of the 77th Hunger Games.
May the odds ever be in your favor.
