(The discussion thread is here
)
Welcome to HGS: Another Side Another Story. It is a roleplay spinoff for the Hunger Games Simulator forum game, akin to both the RP's in the Roleplaying section as well as the ITTs in Forum Games. It tells the story of the Hunger Games in the Arena of Panem, the nominators who sent the tributes, the tributes themselves both in and out of the Arena or even other people relevant to the Games. In addition, it also tells their stories beyond the Arena.
You can jump right in with any character, like your nominator self, your tributes, etc. The structure of this RP will be open-world. Don't worry about not being skilled/experienced enough or being new to RP'ing. Finally, ASAS accepts any skill level or RP style. Other than these, there are some important rules to note, which are:
- No godmodding will be allowed or tolerated here. The offending player will be given punishment depending on the severity.
- Please communicate anything important you plan on another player with the said player first. Don't just execute it without their consent.
- Don't be rude to other players, both out and in-universe. This extends to RP offenses like railroading, guilt-tripping, coercing, or other forms of forcing them.
- This RP is related to the Hunger Games Simulation:Beyond the Possibilities forum game. Thus it will have events based from that game, including the tributes. This means if you want to RP as tributes, please nominate them officially on the thread first, with misses not being counted. This has to be done after an incident with a player who hasn't joined the game itself yet.
- Since this RP is Loose Canon in relation to the main HGS thread, the host's interpretation of events isn't necessarily 100% canon. Every player has the right to deviate from what the host says and go with their own interpretations. If multiple players have their tributes involved in the same event(s), please communicate with each other so that you're on the same page regarding how you see them.
- This RP chronicles the lives of the nominators and their tributes behind the scenes. While dark plots are acceptable, the overall tone of the RP should be light-hearted and comedic. This RP is not a Cosmic Horror Story or action story about defeating evil. It is a Slice of Life comedy with some adventure to it, first and foremost. Our previous RP, Convergence, is not representative of the intended tone, and the grimdark tone of that RP is one of the main reasons it was retooled.
- Nominators and tributes alike can transform into Pokemon whenever they enter a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon World (but they can bypass this with certain items/methods or shapeshifting) or via other means outside it such as a season event, Transformation Trinkets, or shapeshifting. The players are free to choose the Pokéforms that best suit their characters and even give them color schemes outside the standard and Shiny colors, but there is a hard rule for this. If you want your character's Pokéform to be a Legendary, Mythical, or Ultra Beast, please ask the RP mods for approval. Outside the Arena, these Pokéforms are still OP, but we want to give leeway for tributes who theoretically can have them such as deities.
- Other rules are covered in the RP guides: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13414403220A81433600&page=1#comment-1

Here's my opening RP post:
Detective Gamechanger's Base
A sharp-dressed man in a green suit and yellow tie is standing by the entrance of the base. He is of average height and has whitish skin, though still a bit darker. He is Billy, one of the nominators and the organizer of the party.
Indeed, after the nominators' returned and settled their problems, they decide to have fun with a party. Billy also sent invites for all the other nominators out there, as well as basically anyone else, including tributes, non associated parties, interested nominators who haven't participate yet, or even those who just wants to hang out.
The place itself in the base is refurbished for party purposes. Fancy chairs and tables are set everywhere for people to relax, as well as put food and other objects for the latter. There's also various collections showcased, including those belonging to the Detective, like his classic cars. Various themes to the base are set too, including detective noir as GC would have preferred.
Billy is now awaiting for other guests to arrive. He is also ready to give them a pleasant surprise during the party pertaining to his nation.

Light and Hope
The Arena
As night passes, Starfall is about to head to sleep when something falls on his head. Peeved, he takes it to find the thing being an action figure of the Plasma Bomber. Wearily, he breaks off its head before heading to bed.
The next day, Starfall somehow stumbles on an internet chatroom, and he alongside Billy and Plas successfully try to spell the nominator named Routeferret's name with emojis. After that, he walks some more to encounter.... a cooking show? And somehow, 6k1 and Scipion are both the judges? Oh boy....
Dave
The Lord High Protector wakes up to find himself in a vast world. At first, he is confused.
"What? Where am I?" he wonders, still in a semi-daze. He takes a walk through the seemingly endless expanse.
As he walks, he shakes off his daze and tries to remember how he got there. "Okay, so I got kicked in the back while fighting War, and then I passed out, and here I am. But where IS this? And why is this place so.... familiar?"
Then he hears it. Screams of pain and agony. He turns around to find a gigantic tunnel-like blueish ring. Beings are thrown about inside it, forced to endure everlasting suffering and death. Immediately, he recognizes it.
"The Ring of Time? Then that means I am in the World of Infinite Creations. Maybe I should try to use portals."
He tries summoning a portal, but for some reason, he cannot.
"What? It seems like something isn't allowing me to summon pretty much any kind of portals. Then.... How am I going to leave? Am I.... stuck here?"
He wonders about his sister, and his adviser. He wonders if 6k1 is still in the Arena, in a fine state. He wonders if Fira has known that he's missing. He wonders if he'll see them again.
Dave, still weary, decides to sit down, as he looks at the Ring of Time and its eternal prisoners.
"So, here I am. Trapped here in this endless expanse, perhaps no better than them. Is this it?"
Sighing, he closes his eyes, and thinks of the past. Memories, good and bad, flashes across his mind. A terrible upbringing in a world of hell, meeting Fira and Hans, escaping from their world, beginning their omniversal travels, starting a multiversal "empire", meeting the old Benefactor, arriving in Panem, meeting 6k1, joining the Hunger Games.... Time flies.
A hand touches his shoulder, causing him to jump in surprise. The figure who does it laughs in a feminine tone. Dave looks at her to find himself face-to-face with Genesis, the Entity of Light.
"I did not expect to see you here," she tells him.
"Neither do I expect to be here. Things happened."
"Care to indulge this old woman with your stories? Perhaps I've been away for too long," she asks him. He shrugs in reply.
"Why not?"
"Let us walk, away from the infernal ones. You may tell me as we walk."
Dave nods, and the two walks away from the Ring.
Dave's Home Base
"What do you mean, you couldn't find him?!" Hans asks the messenger. Fira, meanwhile, is left catatonic at that.
"I'm sorry, sir, but the department has determined that there is no trace of the Lord High Protector in any possible dimension they could think of."
"Well, then find every other possible location. Tell them that they must find him at all costs! I don't care how, I need them to find him!" the Vice Head Adviser roars furiously.
"Yes sir," the messenger replies as he leaves.
Hans looks at Fira. ".... Fira, are you alright?" he asks as he approaches her.
Then she bursts into tears again, falling into his shoulder.
"Oh Hans, I can't handle this, I can't.... I don't want this to be true.... I can't deal with losing him forever.... I need him safe and sound! Why is he always running into danger?! I feel like a failure, because I can't do anything with or for him!" she sobs.
"Hey, hey, it's alright. We'll find him, and we'll bring him back. I'll make sure of it, if it's the last thing I'll do," he tells her, trying to soothe her feelings.

Panem
Minato realized the true problem with these Hunger Games in particular.
Most of the multiverse's heroes are in them! If they don't live, then even if they can be revived, that still gives the villain's an opportunity to attack their bases while they're dead!
". . .This is bad. We're... doomed."

Night 3
Satisfied with her match with Arimo, 6k1 looks for another place to rest. She comes across a sign that says: Eating carpet strictly prohibited.
"Who in their right mind would wanna eat a carpet?"
She quickly realizes that Mimi might've eaten the one in her basement just as she said that.
Meanwhile, Power wakes up, draws up a bucket, and throws up into it. She stumbles as she tries getting up and clutches her belly.
"Hopefully... that's the... last time... I'll ever... drink..."
She puts her helmet back on. Route then encounters her again, complaining about the handshake. Power folds her ears and flares her nostrils.
"I'm sorry...! I forgot... to wash my armor that day... alright?!"
She then runs away, but trips on a rock and rolls down a hill. Luckily, she didn't get seriously injured, but upon getting up, she sees several fallen nominators being miraculously revived by Alivia.
Power sniffles, and her eyes well up. "Ich...? Is that you...?"
He suddenly shrivels up and dies again. Power tries to remember Twilight's advice to her, but she bursts into tears and leaves the scene. 6k1, on the other hand, also happened to witness the attempted revival, but she simply puts a hand to her chest and bows her head in silence.
I shouldn't be worrying about you, Ichi... I know you'll be alright...
Dave's still on her mind, however, but she tries not to let that bother her.
Day 4
Unlike 6k1, Power didn't have a good night's sleep. Under her helmet, her face is all wet and sore from the endless sobbing. Her ears suddenly perk up, however, and she turns her head to the direction of Inactive taunting Arimo with archived footage of the various villain attacks in Equestria.
Poor her... she thinks, my universe is now free from them, and it's a nice place to live... if you don't mind transforming into a pony or any sapient creature...
Meanwhile 6k1 registers herself as the judge for Tardis and River's cooking duel and goes to her seat. She sighs at a certain fox when he sits right next to her, but smiles when Blue signs up as judge as well. The three of them watch as the contestants prepare the best dish for them under the time limit, and once they're done, they give them their meals for taste testing.
6k1 tries not to spit out Tardis's and forces it down with water.
"Honestly, you really need to improve how you mix the ingredients, since their flavors all clash with each other."
She then writes down her final score and gathers the tallies from the other judges. She combines the scores and smiles at the winner.
"Congratulations, River!"

Night 3
Hunting, Scipion eventually found what seemed to be just a normal horoscope. He didn't really cared but still took a look at it by curiosity.
"...What kind of horoscope is that... Looks like something Morgan would do in his free time."
Day 4
Scipion wasn't in the mood to kill. So instead he wanted to study other tributes. He registered himself as one of the judge for Tardis and River's cooking duel and raised an eyebrow upon seeing 6k1.
"Still breathing I see... What? I got it I'm evil and all, but I'm not obssessed by it." he justified himself before looking at Blue with interest.
"...You asked me if that meat you made was good or bad. I don't know. Because it have no taste at at all." he hissed at Tardis.
"...I've eaten better. But it's not that bad either." he said to River before giving his score to 6k1. Once River received her prize, the Zoroark fled just as fast as he appeared.
Night 4
Surfing on Internet with a computer he stole, Scipion was contacted by Arimo and Minato.
"Tcchh... Don't know about these guys that much. I'm wondering if they would be tasty or not."
Scipion relucantly accepted and growled when "Minato" accidentally used the potato filter.
"Very funny. Get that ugly filter away from me or I'll hunt you down like the miserable potato you are."
Day 5
For once, Scipion didn't slept during the night. As he was resting, Machop!Celebi took this opportunity to capture him before putting him inside a life-sized dollhouse.
"WTF? YOU DAMN MACHOP, YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!! I'LL SKIN YOU ALIVE? DO YOU HEAR ME??" Scipion roared furiously as he was forced to work like an household.

"I don't know why sir Scipion is complaining. I also serve as an household, and I don't really have a problem with that." Clyde commented.
"...I should save the boss."
"Impossible. It's prohibited to interfere in the games. He should be able to escape by himself." Clyde calmly said, not noticing how angry Onox was.
Meanwhile, as he was watching the games with his friends, Aaron couldn't help but feel bad for the tributes who were suffering, like Starfall or Power.
And there was his nemesis, visibly having fun trying to play the bad guy. He should be the one who should be punished, not them. At least, out of all the tributes, this Machop managed to capture and humiliate him. But for how long? And what happened to the tributes that weren't killed like that Dave guy? Were they safe? He wished he could do something.
Proteus, calmly ananlysed the young Lucario's mind. He wasn't a mind reader, but he could tell that Aaron wanted to be stronger to be more efficient as an hero. And he knew exactly who to call, thelepatically.
Ni! Ninjaaa!
Uh? What is that? Who dare- Oh, it's you old frog. a bored voice answered
Greninja. Gre. Grenin.
Panem? For what? You know I don't like meddling into mortals's affairs.
Ninja, nin, ninja!
Giratina's brat? Oho, now you're talking. You don't know how many people would pay to kick his ass. Fine old man, I'm coming to that stupid land of yours.

She/Her | inactive for now
The Arena
Psyche knows that she has to move on. She's still deep in despair over what she's done to her brother, but she knows that she can't go back in time and fix her mistake, no matter how badly she wants to. Thus, she busies herself by writing a haiku about River. She considers writing more haiku about the other tributes, but she has a headache now, and she wants nothing more than to sleep the night away - and that's exactly what she does.
But the next day, Blue finds her and hangs her on a cross, ignoring her pleas that she didn't mean to kill Ichi. She dies, only to somehow be revived immediately afterwards. Her time in this season isn't over… yet.
She decides to go kayaking with Noble Six!War. Maybe he'll understand her troubles. Heck, the scenery and the water might help soothe her. And it does, for the most part. But when she and War head back to shore, she notices a collective of tributes who, she was sure, had all been killed at some point in this season so far. Including…
"Big bro!" Psyche cries, jumping straight out of the kayak and running towards Ichi. "I'm so sorr-"
He shrivels up and dies again, and Psyche swallows, blinking back tears, wondering if it was just a hallucination… or maybe a bad dream…
She has a lot of trouble sleeping that night.
The next day seems a lot better, though. She finds a large, well-stocked, abandoned bar and decides to use it as her new base camp. It's nice and warm and comfortable, and she feels safe in there. She spends the day chilling out in there, writing more poetry. As the sun goes down, Machop!Celebi enters her new base and comforts her, before suddenly calling her his "Soul Friend."
"Oh…" Psyche blinks. "You… really mean that? I mean, you're not Kazuichi - he's the one who'd normally use that term - but… that means a lot. Thank you."
After a good night's sleep, Psyche busies herself even more by focusing on practising her tightrope walking skills. Surprisingly, she's pretty good at it.

Night 4
Power sighs as she moves away from the other nominators as much as possible. The Arena stress has been taking a toll on her, but she can't bottle up her emotions forever...
Her breathing gets short when she encounters Inactive.
"You..." she says to him, "are gonna pay for taunting Arimo like that!"
At roughly the same time as Starfall, who kills Tabby with a guitar, she summons her Stand and orders it to fire its beams at Inactive. Once he's down, Hearts Strong as Horses stabs him in the chest and drills its horn right in, all while "Psycho" Strings play on the speakers. Once it's done, Power desummons it and gets out of the way.
Meanwhile, 6k1 wanders deep in the woods with a flashlight, but is ambushed from behind by a ghost. She screams and jumps out of the way, but remembers Pinkie's song and laughs straight at its face. The ghost vanishes into thin air, and 6k1 makes it out safely.
Day 5
6k1 looks for another way to relax. She prefers just sitting down and reading a book, but for once, she chooses an outdoor activity. She goes to the shoreline and sees big waves crashing on it.
"This is the perfect spot to try surfing! Good thing I packed my swimsuit."
She goes to the changing room and comes out wearing a purple full-body swimsuit with indigo stripes. She then rents a surfboard and swims into the ocean, towards a smaller wave so she won't get wiped out so easily. Once the wave comes near her, she puts her right foot forward and shifts her weight as she rides it, but falls off quickly.
6k1 swims back to shore and catches her breath.
"Phew... looks like I need to practice..."
Meanwhile, Power was busy keeping to herself when a blonde man in a golden suit suddenly saunters in front of her.
"Who are you?!"
The man folds his arms and laughs. "You were expecting another sponsor, but it was me, DIO!"
Power folds her ears, recognizing him as one of the contenders from the last Death Battle, unless this DIO's not the same as that one.
One of the villains from the JoJo Universe is sponsoring me?!
DIO laughs again. "I saw you using your Stand against that mere mortal last night! And I just wanna say congrats for getting it back there in the Bloodbath!"
"Oh really?" She gulps. "Th-Thanks, I guess... Totally wasn't expecting to get one this season..."
"Also... 'Hearts Strong as Horses'?" He laughs one more time. "That name reminds me so much of my mercenary, Hol Horse!"
Power flares her nostrils and paws at the ground. DIO just makes a smug grin at her as his aura emanates around him.
"In any case, LET'S SEE YOUR STAND'S POTENTIAL AGAINST MINE... THE WORLD!"
As soon as he summons his Stand, Power immediately teleports outside its attack range and runs off. From what she has heard of it, it's one of the most powerful ones in his universe, and its time stopping powers can easily give him an upper hand. Once she's a safe distance from him, she catches her breath. She thinks of developing her Stand further, but she has to give it up after this season...

Rulinia's campship.
Aster, Rose and Violet were all huddled around the phone, watching on and off as they did other things on the ship. Rose and Violet did things both together and separately, ranging from tinkering with things to spending time together-Until Elliot was killed in the most unceremonious fashion possible, causing him to use one of his Scapedolls and be kicked out back to Rulinia's campship, in his magical girl attire.

Night 5
At last. As soon as Machop!Celebi eventually went to sleep, Scipion got free and destroyed the dollhouse before fleeing. He also stole a small triangle wand wanted to test it and a nominator.
He thought about Sailor Tardis that he saw earlier. Grinning, not forgetting the bad taste she left in his mouth, he used the artifact to transform into what seemed to be just a normal bee except that this form still had his mane. He landed on her cheek and woke her up.
"Hey. I thought of a good one. Bee yourself and scream for me." he laughed before viciously stinging her. "Bee" Scipion kep cackling as he chased after her while dodging the various items she threw at her.
Day 6
After Sailor Tardis escaped, the Zoroark infiltrated Noble Six!War's lair and was ready to slaughter him. But when he saw his victim, Scipion witnessed him doing Yoga classes.
"Hey..."
Noble Six!War completely ignored him, too focused on his lessons. Scipion just stared at the scene, but strangely enough waited until it was over.
He probably needed some Yoga lessons as well giving his temper.

"... Meh. I forgot."
"If you've forgot, that means it wasn't certainly important."
"Ok."
Clyde sighed. That was such an uninteresting conversation for him...

Light and Hope
The Arena
As the fourth night begins, Starfall's repressed stress is starting to show. The Arena's effects on him is certainly not helping, and with Dave missing, he finds himself irritable. Stumbling upon Tabby, she then tells him of her killing Glitch!Zan. Angered by this, he takes an abandoned guitar and starts beating her to death with it.
"I've had just about enough of this, and right now, you. Are. Dead. DEAD! DEAD!! he shouts, bashing Tabby's head with each emphasis.
Eventually, he stops, but it was too late. Shocked at what he had done, he begins to cry.
"Oh, Celestia, what have I done? Oh, I'm sorry, Tabby...."
The next day, Starfall, still reeling from his guilt and anger, decides to do nothing but to lie down and think of home. He finds himself missing it.
When the night arrives once more, he decides to begin gathering more supplies, only to suddenly get transported into an unknown realm, facing a very powerful dragon. After a gruelling battle that nearly results in him dying, he defeats it, but by the time he returns back to the real Arena, dawn has arrived.
Now sleep deprived, desperate and even more stressed, Starfall decides to raid the camp of "TIM's luck", stealing pretty much every supply available before snapping the sleeping clover in half and crushing it for good measure. He takes everything to his camp, before finally passing out.
The World of Infinite Creations
Finishing what he knows of the recent events, Dave sighs.
"I guess I'm not sure on what to do."
Genesis hums briefly, before a magical bubble appears, showing a crying Fira, as Hans comforts her. Dave sighs sadly, a single tear rolling in his cheeks.
"I always hate it whenever I make her cry. I know she's a worrywart, but still, I always do."
"You care about her a lot, don't you?" the Entity of Light asks him.
"Yeah.... I do. She means the world to me. Even before she told me that she loves me, she's always been like that. She, 6k1, Hans.... they're the ones I trust with everything I have, even my life."
"Then perhaps you love her more than you realize."
"Yeah, I think I do. Oh, what I wouldn't give to be able to embrace her...."
"I can bring you back, but I believe I shouldn't be doing that until after the season."
"Hmm.... But it pains me to see her like this. She needs to know that I'm alright."
"That's it. How about I bring her to you? That way, she'll know that you're alright, and I don't break the 'code' (I suppose you can call it that)," Genesis offers.
"Anything, as long as she knows."
The Entity of Light smiles warmly as she opens a white portal.
"How....?" Dave questions in surprise.
"Usually, only certain people may create a portal into the World of Infinite Creations, and out of it. The Arena's portals, however, may lead to almost anywhere. It may have had the ability to lead here all along, but such has never happened.... until you."
"Me?" Dave asks, surprised.
She nods. "Only she may use this portal, which should last until she safely arrives here, and once the season is over, I'll return here to provide you your way home. I have some things I need to do somewhere else," Genesis winks at him. "Enjoy your time."
She leaves.
Dave's Home Base
A white portal appears near the two advisers. Still trying to reel her emotions in, Fira looks at it. She feels.... drawn to it.
Hans recognizes the portal, from his friend and superior's reaction.
"That portal.... Isn't it the same as the one that brought Lord Dave to that place where Timewrecker got, well, timewrecked?" he ponders.
".... Yes. And.... it's calling me. Could it.... is he there?"
"Go. If this could be where he is, you should take the opportunity. I'll take care of things in here."
She nods, and slowly she walks through the portal.

Night 5
After washing up and changing back to her uniform, 6k1 finally finds Power. She sees the unicorn staring at what seems to be a tiny campfire and approaches her with caution.
"Are you alright?" she asks her. "I'm okay now since I did some fun activities to cool off!"
Power just continues staring. 6k1 takes a closer look and sees that it's a burning cracker.
"Hello?" the DM asks her again. "Can you hear me?"
6k1 waves her hand in front of her. She also peeks into her visor and sees that her eyes are dull and unmoving.
"Oh God..."
She then gives Power a little nudge, but she doesn't move an inch, so she shakes her instead.
"Power Stroke, please listen to me! I'm your best friend, so you can tell me anything that's bothering you! I'm here to listen, and I promise to keep it a secret if you must!"
To her surprise, however, the unicorn still doesn't respond. 6k1 pauses, then gets up.
"If you don't feel like talking about it... it's okay too. But please remember that you can't run away from or hide your problems forever. I'll leave you alone so you can think about this without me disturbing you."
Day 6
Power walks around aimlessly, with bits and pieces of 6k1's advice echoing in her head. She tries to remember it, but her mind keeps wandering off. She's snapped out of her trance when Billy tells her that he welcomes "our new insect overlords."
"You worship the Changelings now?" she asks him. "Hopefully they're not the unreformed ones..."
Meanwhile, 6k1 returns to where the cooking duel happened and notices something off about the set. She finds some documents and investigates them, but cups her mouth upon discovering something suspicious. She then looks for River and shows it to her.
"Unfortunately, you sneaked in an ingredient that's banned in the official rules, so I'm afraid we'll have to strip you off your award."
River says sorry and surrenders the medal to her.
6k1 then makes her best Gordon Ramsay impression and adds, "I bet even the Devil himself would call you scum for that!"
River apologizes again and walks away. 6k1 sighs and goes off to look for Tardis, then explains the situation as she puts the medal on her.
"Rarity, are you okay? We gotta get you and your friends outta here soon!"
Ruler of Everything
Her Final Days
Tabby comes across three familiar faces watching and laughing at terrible movies. She sits down to chatter with Billy about them.
"Hey,Bill. How are you doing? Watching some terrible movies? I’ll join."
"Alright,we should the Amazing Bulk next. The ending scene is a drug trip."
After they mocked more mockbusters,everyone said farewell when everyone went back to their camps. Then Tabby looked at her arms to see that she still has a couple of lives left.
She decides to waste one of them while fighting a monkey mutt and being mauled to death once again. She drops from the sky to see the black bars decreased.
She continues on and goes to bed. The next morning,she is awaken by some guitar playing. She follows the sound to see it coming from Starfall. He looks pissed so she pulls out the hunting knife stained in Glitch!Zan's blood. He asks her if she killed Glitch!Zan due to the knife's blood. Tabby hesitates but speaks up.
"Y-Yes,I killed her. I’m sorry but to be honest,murder feel good."
Poor choice of words for her. Starfall smashes the guitar against her head multiple times until all of her lives are gone. She experiences him ranting about her just like Scipion did a while back. She couldn’t helped it but he was slowly losing sanity. Tabby's blood covered head and body fell to the ground as Starfall walks away from it. Tabby lays their and then stops holding on the threads of her life and lets go. She achieves that sweet peace again. Her corpse gets picked up by Captiol aircraft and a cannon sounds reporting her death to everyone in the arena.
Then,she wakes up in a white room.
"What is this place and why does it look familiar?"
Somewhere
"Yes! Fucking Finally!"

Night 6
Power continues walking, but this time she fully remembers 6k1's advice. She's been through a lot lately, but she's not ready to tell her yet...
She then comes across "Mr. Star" and points at him with a shaking hoof.
"THAT'S NOT MR. STAR! AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
She runs in the opposite direction, wondering where the real one is.
Meanwhile, 6k1 finds a box of caltrops and dumps them on the road. She hides behind a nearby tree and sees Minato walking towards them, but facepalms when he avoids them.
Day 7
6k1 sits down and continues her work while in the Arena. She researches about the Goblin Slayer Universe on her phone and cringes at how disgusting the goblins are.
"I hate to say this, but all the goblins there must die!"
But just after she says that, several goblins capture her. She tries fighting back, but they overpower her and hang her on a noose. Power unfortunately comes across the mob and runs away screaming. She also overhears Cel making a joke at 6k1's expense and shoots a glare at him before getting away, singing to try calming herself down.
"I have to find a way... To make this all okay..."
Power still feels overwhelmed by what she has gone through this week. She then sees River and Plas trying to defeat FryBandit through song and joins in.
"A true true friend is a friend in need..."
Once they've finished singing, Fry suddenly clutches his chest and keels over. Power backs up and folds her ears.
"But but... I sang a happy song this time! How did that kill him?!"

The night isn't easy for Starfall. Noble Six!War seems to have confused his camp for a shop, and the guy keeps on banging on his door, asking why is the "shop" not open. That left Starfall sleep deprived again, and coupled with the stress causes him to further slip into insanity.
The next day, in need of some venting, Starfall duels Minato, but before he could kill the young man, the Peacekeepers intervene, as Minato turns out to be the current viewer's favorite. This leaves him absolutely frustrated.
The World of Infinite Creations
With Genesis gone, Dave decides to look at the Ring of Time imprisoning the villainous Timewrecker and his forces. Heh, such a fitting punishment. After a long time of making others suffer, he'll never be able to bring harm to anyone ever again, he thinks.
Then he hears a sound of someone entering through the portal behind him. Even before he turns around, he knows exactly who it is.
The portal closes behind her, but neither of them particularly cares. They continue to stare at each other, sadness and pain still apparent in their faces. For a long minute, though it certainly feels like much longer than that, the two say nothing. But silence eventually has to be broken.
".... Hey. Fira....?" he calls out to her.
She breaks at hearing his voice. She runs up to him and embraces him with everything she has, like nothing she had ever done before. She sobs into his shoulder, worry, fear, traces of anger, and relief apparent. He lets her as she lightly pounds at his chest. But only after a few strikes, she stops, and simply cries in relief. He then hugs her back, saying nothing.
"You ended up here, huh?" she says weakly.
"Yeah.... I had no idea how. Not a lot of things can get in or out."
Faintly in the background, they can hear the screams. They look at the Ring.
"So this is where Timewrecker was left imprisoned for eternity...."
"Yeah...."
Dave then looks at his dear second-in-command.
"I'm sorry. I know I said that you shouldn't be worrying too much about me, but I hadn't expected to be left here. And.... I've seen you, breaking down back there. I felt.... powerless. As if there's nothing I can do to help you," he tells her.
"Do you mean it, Dave?" she asks him.
"Yeah. Like I said before, I always hate it when I make you cry. I feel like a worthless, weak fool whenever that happens."
"Don't you dare say that!" she snaps. "You're one of the greatest men I ever knew! Don't beat yourself up because of me and my silly feelings for you."
"The same could be said about you, you know."
A brief smirk in the corner of his lips disappears as fast as it comes.
"Or is that it? You don't feel adequate?"
"Well, you're still the leader. I'm just a subordinate."
"You're worth more than that, you know. You're my first friend. You helped me, and you've always been there since we began journeying to do better and learn from the omniverse. I'd never would have been here without your support by my side."
"You're giving me too much credit."
"Maybe, but it's true. Never would have lasted without you. You mean the world for me. More than even I had realized. For that.... I think I can say that I love you."
She looks at him, shocked. He wipes the remaining tears in her eyes.
"I love you too," she answers as she hugs him again.
Their hug lasted for a while, since neither of them wants to let go. For now, they'll let themselves sink into each other's embrace. They'll think of the future later.
Hope: "Let's go. We'll be together." Lightning: "I only know... that soon, we'll be together."

After somehow being literally too dead to die during the nom games, Haze woke up in a strange place underwater.
Where am I? he echoed as he swam forward a bit. Anyone here? he swam some more until he bumped into... Something

???
Who... are you?
...
Not much of a talker, huh? The... thing nodded. It then showed me the things that have happened in the games after I died.
Oh jeez, we're going insane! The thing nodded again.
Y'know, thingamajig, the Hunger Games are kinda strange: Regardless of your alignment, powers and status, you can kill literally anyone and anything. A trash can can decapitate a god. Family members can brutally murder each other and Omnipotent deities can die by banana peels. The thing gave me a thumbs up, seemingly agreeing with me. you agree with me? The thing nodded. Can I... chill here awhile? The Thing nodded once more. Thank you.

The creature is still hiding in his disguise. He took more footage of the others.
"Alright, buddy. If there's a threat, press this button and you'll get ejected. That fox getting kidnapped is a little funny, though..."
He then encounters Power Stroke, who screams at him.
"Please don't hurt me!" screamed him, who then ran.
Some days later, he joined a cult, gathering more footage of the others all the while. He has a feeling that one of the members will ambush him. Later, when he searches the Cornucopia, he saw the tribute again. Thinking he has an agenda at his expense, he ambushes the tribute and kills him.
Later, he ran into another tribute, this time a purple pony. It painted a tunnel and reveals a train. It then hits him,flinging him away and destroying his costume to reveal...
The costume is ruined, and Waddle Dee is severely injured after being flung. He closes his eyes and falls unconscious, seemingly dying.
Suddenly, a portal appears and the bus appears. It grabs him using mechanical(?) hands and carries him into the portal, out of sight from the others.
Star Angel Palace
As Waddle Dee is in a critical condition, Mr. Star gives him a weird syrup. He sips it.
"Are you ok?"
"No..."
"Don't worry, this stuff can heal you soon. Anyways, you have the footage?"

The Arena
All of this is seriously getting to Starfall. He's losing his grip on sanity.
As the seventh night arrives, he finds himself hallucinating that he's with Shining Armor, dining with him and the rest of the Royal Guard.
"Hehehe.... I like knights...." he mutters dreamily.
The next day begins with the Feast. The now nearly-manic Starfall finds himself in utter admiration of tubs of jelly, believing it to be something important. Fortunately, he briefly regains his sanity long enough to let go of that. Unfortunately, he stumbles upon his honorary sister being mutated into a horrific monster, which is then finished off by Tardis to put her out of her misery.
"NO! No, no no no noooooo! Not you, Power! NOOOOO!!" he shouts in utter anguish, grief stricken.
Seeing Power's horrible death broke his sanity, it turns out. Later in the day, he maniacally paints a tunnel, and lets a speeding train hits the fake Mr. Star, cackling madly as the severely injured Waddle Dee is flung away.
The night is a blur to him, but the next day, he assigns a mission to Machop!Celebi to kill another tribute, but he fails. Angered, the insane pony stabs him non-fatally with a nearby knife.
"HOW DARE YOU?! You WILL kill, or I will kill you myself!" he shouts, mania and insanity now clear in his voice.
Dave's Home Base
Hans, who has been watching the season as it passes, is currently trembling. The painful arc for Power, Starfall, and Psyche is utterly devastating him.
"Oh, by the Maker...." he sighs. Seeing those three being so utterly broken is disheartening for even him, who is almost always stoic.
Trying his best to recompose himself, he calls for several men.
"Go to the Arena, and help the Peacekeepers if need be. If Starfall wins, I fear he may remain too stricken with grief to care, and may have to be stunned. Use anti-magic if you need to, but try not to kill him unless you absolutely have to."
The men nods in affirmative, before departing. Hans sighs again as he sits down in his place.
"Oh, man, if Lord Dave is here, he'd be even more heartbroken than I am...."

Night 6
On his way to his lair, Scipion came across what seemed to be a random pipe in the middle of a lake. Thinking he could find some artifacts inside, he entered it and ended in the Minus world.
Is that some kind of Mario underwater level? he thought as he swimmed to the end of the level. Only to find himself at the beginning again. And again. And again.
"Fucking Distortion World, don't tell me I'm actually trapped here?!" the Zoroark yelled angrily. He then took a look at the device in his mane, and almost broke it when seeing that he was considered dead.
Disqualified. Fucking disqualified.
"FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!"
Scipion's eyes caught fire and he tried to destroy the bugged world in an explosion of rage. He rather got killed accidentally by a random stupid event rather than getting disqualified. To make things worst, it would take him some time to create a portal back to Panem giving the special nature of the Minus World. He was so furious that he didn't watched the rest of the season.
Database Library
Naturally, Scipion's disappearance left Onox's dumbfounded. Clyde just kept taking notes, unfazed by the heartbroking scenes.
"Clyde..."
"Ah. I see that you've finally learned my name corr-"
"Where. Is. The. Boss."
"He visibly is, like sir David, trapped within a dimension that I'm unfortunately unnaware of. But I'm certain he will be fine." Clyde casually said, not really realising how distressed Onox was.
"Find him."
"Sir Onox. I'm busy watching the nominators and their allies for future interactions. The other nominators are busy surely recovering. I'll do so, after the season." the young Shuppet coldly answered. He was clearly lacking of tact.
The Toxtricity trembled in pure anger. If it wasn't for Scipion telling him to stay calm if he were to disappear or die, he would have gladly go berserk against the entirety of Panem for taking his boss away like that.
"YOU'D BETTER FIND THE BOSS. THEY'D BETTER FIND HIM BECAUSE I SWEAR I'M GOING TO LIFT THAT STUPID LIBRARY AND THROW IT AT THE GAMEMAKERS'S FACES, THEN AT ALL OF THE NOMINATORS'S FACES."
"You don't even know where they are or what they looks like." Clyde said, not really caring about Onox's slow breakdown.
Back with the other Pokemons, Aaron sighed in relief at the Zoroark's eventual "defeat". That relief was short-lived however as the Games took a darker path, especially with Starfall, Psyche and Power. Every Pokemons could only stare, shocked and even saddened for some.
That was too much for Aaron who refused to watch more of it at Power and Psyche's death.
"That's just too painful to watch... Guys, I can't watch this anymore." he muttered disgusted before going into a separate room, with Lucian following close by.
"Aaron?!"
"No, don't worry Alex. I just... need to take a break."
Once there, Aaron sat down and sighed sadly.
"...Aaron?"
"I'm fine. It's just... depressing. I wish I could have done something. I could have join the games and prevent all of those atrocities to happen... Why even is it a killing game? Why even such horrible events are allowed? Can't people just get disqualified instead of... this?"
"You said it yourself, in this arena you can't really control yourself. If you did, maybe you would have suffered as well. It's why Scipion tried to have you in the arena in the first place."
"You know me Lucian. I would have done that rather than just sitting there and watching as innocents suffer." Aaron weakly muttered, restraining himself from crying. Lucian smiled sadly and allowed Aarron to hug him, breaking down in tears.
"And that bastard! He didn't even died, he just disappeared somewhere and didn't suffered as much as them. It piss me off! It fucking piss me off!!"
"Shhhh... You always blame yourself for nothing, ever since we've met. I know it's a chore to watch but... You don't have any responsability in this, okay? It's not your fault, don't blame yourself."
Suddenly, Onox loud's threat shook the walls of the library itself.
Oh yeah. I forgot about him. Aaron thought as it was now a terrified Lucian who hugged him.
"Li-Li-Lifting the library???"
"Honestly, Onox would do anything for his boss. Pretty sure he would actually be able to do so if Scipion isn't found by the end of the season. But don't worry. He can't win against 2 Rescue Teams."
Lucian laughed nervously. "Well... I hope it won't come to this then..."

Night 7
Still crying from somehow killing Fry by just singing, Power wanders into a mysterious cave. She lights up her horn and sees that it's full of crystals of different shapes and sizes and all the colors of the rainbow.
"Wow..." she says as she sees her reflections in them. "I could use some of these to make a sculpture..."
She draws up some mining equipment and digs them out. She exits the cave with her mine cart in tow and sniffles as she pieces the stones together. One she's done, she steps back and admires her creation: it's a giant crystal sculpture of herself and Psyche, and it sparkles under the moon.
I bet she's gonna like this...
Power removes her helmet and looks for her before tapping her on the shoulder.
"I've got a surprise for you..."
She leads her to the sculpture and presents it to her.
"Psyche... in memory of Ichi... I've made this sculpture of both of us. I hope you like it..."
Psyche, however, rejects it instead. Power tears up yet again.
"What?! You don't like it?! Even after I spent hours on this?!"
She cries and runs away from her, not bothering to put her helmet back on.
Feast
The sun rises, and the remaining nominators go to the Cornucopia for breakfast. Power, however, doesn't feel like it, but her stomach growls in protest. Desperate to eat or drink something to stave off her hunger, Power finds a strange green energy drink. She finishes it, but screams as parts of her coat turn into scales and dragon wings break out of her. Just as she runs out of the Cornucopia, her body grows giant as she transforms into a horrific dragon-pony hybrid, breaking her armor in the process. Her final appearance almost resembles Steven's Corrupted form.
◊
Power roars in anguish as she goes on a rampage and destroys the Cornucopia. Tardis then spots her and defeats her in a grueling fight, and once Power falls down, Tardis lands the final blow on her. Power roars one last time before breathing her last as vague memories of her friends and family flash in her mind.

She/Her | inactive for now
The Arena
The season continues, and Psyche continues to experience many trials and tribulations. She likes hanging out with Machop!Celebi, but she's not amused when he makes a joke at 6k1's expense right after she dies. She has to admit, though, she's surprised she's made it this far, especially considering her early, unceremonious death in the last Troper Games…
Of course, though, her heart still aches for her lost honorary brother. The fact that she'd killed him continues to haunt her every single day.
So when Power Stroke taps her on the shoulder on the seventh night, while she's sitting in the grass gazing up at the full moon, Psyche tenses up as she turns toward the blue pony.
"Oh… um, hey," she says quietly. "I…" She wants to apologise for Ichi's death - after all, Power was his very best friend - but the words die on her lips, and she can't bring herself to apologise.
She's very nervous when she follows Power to… wherever it is she's taking her. She's almost certain that she's going to die now. This is the part where Power avenges her best friend. That's how it usually goes in the Hunger Games.
But when it turns out to be a giant crystal sculpture of Power and Psyche together, Psyche doesn't even know how to feel. It's a very pretty sculpture, sure, and she can see that Power had spent a lot of time on it, but…
Why is she forgiving me so easily…? She does realise that I'm the one who killed him, right? That's not something one can easily forgive…
She swallows. "Power, I'm sorry, but… I-I can't accept this."
Her heart plummets to the pit of her stomach when Power's eyes well up with tears. Fuck.
"Power, w-wait!" she cries, but it's too late. The blue pony nominator has already fled from the scene.
Sniffling, Psyche curls up beside the sculpture and closes her eyes, unwilling to leave its side.
I guess this is how so many of my tributes have felt… she realises at last.
She arrives at the Feast, fully anticipating her fate. At this point, she wouldn't mind if her journey stops here. The Troper Games are supposed to be fun, but to her, between the stresses of being principal and, apparently, some bleak happenings in the "real world," Psyche has experienced a hellish time.
That's why she goes out with a smile as Minato seizes the small knife from her hands and repeatedly stabs her with it.
Psyche's Fanfic School - Tribute Transportation Room
Ms. May is silent as she heals Psyche's stab wounds after the season ends. There's a lot on her mind, but the most pressing matter is: should she erase her memories of this season? Psyche has made it clear in the past that she doesn't want her memories altered in any way, but the way she's been this season is the worst Ms. May has ever seen her. It would be kind of her to make her forget everything that had happened. On the other hand, Psyche would notice, and if she ever did find out her memories were altered, Ms. May would lose her trust.
Besides, maybe this season has taught Psyche another lesson. After all, she's always been… quite an oddball compared to the other nominators.
When Ms. May revives her, Psyche sits up and begins taking deep breaths, trying to keep herself calm. Ms. May gazes at her with a concerned expression. "Are you okay?" she asks.
"To tell you the truth… not really," Psyche replies quietly.
"Ichigo is most likely being revived at this very moment," Ms. May tells her gently.
"I know… but that doesn't change the fact that I killed him… I really hurt him, Ms. May. Him and Power both, and who knows who else… I never wanted this…"
"I will take care of your tributes for next season, Psyche. For now, it appears that you need rest. You've been working so hard lately. You really need a break."
"Yeah… you're right."
Psyche allows Ms. May to help her get to her living quarters. As they pass the classrooms, Psyche can hear her students chattering excitedly about everything she's been through just now. She's the protagonist of her very own story - just not the kind of story she expected.
She finally understands now.

"...Is this over?" Aaron asked Tokage as the Grovyle and Alex entered the room.
"Yes. That pony, Starfall, won, but from what I've seen, he's not exactly in the best of shape."
The Lucario was silent. He realised just how dark the Hunger Games could actually get. That's why sadistic people like Scipion were around. And he felt absolutely powerless against that.
"Do you think they'll be alright?" he asked, tears still within his eyes.
Alex and Tokage looked at Lucian who silently nodded. They shook their heads. Of course he had to blame himself.
"Awww, dude... You never learn. Cheer up!" Alew said, putting his hand on Aaron's shoulder.
"You don't need to feel sad in their places. I'm sure they knew these unfortunate incidents were possibilities."
Aaron sadly nodded. Alex couldn't help but chuckle.
"Ya know, you're actually cute when you're sobbing like that."
"Alex, that's not very funny." Aaron sighed, wiping off some tears with a sad smile.
"You should cheer up already. The season just ended, but Scipion is still nowhere to be seen. Wich means..."
Tokage was interrupted by loud steps noises. They witnessed Onox, "calmly" exiting the building with Clyde following close by.
"Sir Onox. I don't think this will be productive."
"...Crap. I'll handle this."
The Charmeleon ran as fast as he could. On his way, he saw James calmly watching the situation, thinking Onox wasn't that much of a threat, and Arthur bearing a Death Glare. Alex gulped. If Onox were to screw up, Arthur wouldn't hesitate to eliminate him. And Scipion...
Alex hurried outside and gasped as Onox was about to put his hands on the wall.
"HEY DUMBFACE! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING??" he yelled loudly to catch his attention.
"Lifting the library before throwing it at the Gamemakers and the nominators's face."
"Dude, do you think this'll solve anything? This won't help recovering your boss!"
"This is what I've been telling him for several minutes. It would only result in a complete waste of time and money for the country."
Alex cringed at Clyde's blank reaction. The guy seriously need to practice his social interactions.
"Onox. I'm sure your boss is fine, okay? It's Scipion we're talking about. Calm down."
"Why? How do you know he's safe?" Onox growled. Alex put his finger under his chin, thinking of something. He then smirked.
"Well, what do you think of Scipion when it comes to power?"
"The boss is the best. He'll crush all of you. He'll crush every nominators. He'll crush everyone."
"I beg to differ. That is-" Clyde tried to say before Alex nervously covered his mouth before briefly looking at the ghost with an angry look telling him to shut up.
"So if he's the best, he's not in danger, since he's so powerful!" Alex answered. Of course he knew this wasn't true, but as long as Onox calmed down.
"...Yeah... That's true."
"Besides, I bet he's angry as hell for being disqualified. So he doesn't need any help. He'll be back."
"You're right. But I still want to throw that library at the gamemakers for not letting him win."
"Ermm... See that with him, maybe?"
Onox grunted and calmed down.
"Okay. Then I'll wait for him." he said before going back inside. Alex sighed in relief before releasing Clyde from his grasp.
"This isn't very nice to interrupt people like that, neither it is to lie to people."
"Sorry little buddy, but I had to do that. Shouldn't bother the nominators with other problems."
"Yes, I suppose. Living creatures tends to overeact a lot when such things happens. I don't know why since they are resurrected and have the Tools necessary to delete unpleasants memories." he said before leaving.
Alex facepalmed. That was the most pragmatic Pokemon he ever met. And that was the ghost of an 6 years old kid.

6k1 wakes up and finds herself in a familiar room. She can't see clearly yet, but she knows that she has been operated on and revived as per the arrangement. She also requested to have neither of their memories wiped, because they don't want to forget this wild ride or any lessons they learned in the Arena.
Dr. Phoenix then comes in and gives her her glasses. 6k1 tries moving her head, but it feels stiff.
"So you were lynched by goblins, is it not?"
"Yes, I was..." she croaks. Ow, my throat feels sore...
"Well, according to your medical records, we had to fix your upper cervical spine because it got fractured."
He shows her the x-ray and points it out to her. He also puts a mirror in front of her so she can see that she's wearing a neck brace.
"Unfortunately, you are paralyzed from the neck down, but at least your breathing wasn't severely compromised."
6k1 sighs. "Just like... last time..."
"Normally it takes a week for your neck to recover, and four more before it's completely healed, but thanks to Billy's funding, you can recover in just a few days."
"Really...? That's good... because I heard rumors... about a party..."
Phoenix smiles. "And if any healer volunteers to do their magic, they're free to do so. Still, you must avoid strenuous exercise and lifting heavy objects as much as possible, even after you've recovered. In the meantime, we shall be giving you physical therapy to help with your breathing and motor functions."
6k1 nods. "But... what happened to Power?"
The Head Necromancer hangs his head low.
"With a heavy heart... she was stricken with grief after Ichigo's death... and she transformed into a monster after drinking a tainted energy drink. She was then put out of her misery by Sailor Tardis. That's why she's taking longer to be revived than you."
6k1 just looks at him speechless before trying to speak up.

Night 1
Bale continued on as the Night drew close, he spotted Elliot and upon meeting him was disgusted by his appearance, due to MG's recent death, he was not in the best of moods.
Bale: Hey sucker, you're ugly. Leave now!
Elliot didn't even hear Bale and went on it's way, afterwards Bale decided to have some rest in a safe hiding spot from the others.
Day 2
Zanreo found Bale and the two decided to play a little game of Twister, with the two making a rather fun time out of it. Bale was feeling happier than yesterday.
Bale: This is real fun, Zan, we should probably do this at the Nominators Part-
He couldn't finish as when he touched a red spot, it set his left arm on fire.
Bale: What the fuck? AHHHH, FIRE, AAAHHHHH!!!!
Bale ran off from where he and Zan where and dove into a lake, which put out the fire but left some nasty scars on the arm.
Bale: Fuck, this will hurt all day man...
He then walked back to where Zan was and told her that he was done with that game for today as he wasn't risking anything else catching on fire, he walked off to find something to eat elsewhere. At night he got upset as he saw Ichi among the victims.
Bale: Oh Ichi... At least the Library guys will revive you... Or someone else, hopefully.
Night 2
Bale witnessed Scipion killing a sponsor giving him a wedgie and finding a bunny cap on the ground, used it to dash at faster-than-eyesight speeds, getting away without getting noticed.
Bale: No sir, I ain't risking it.
He came across 6K1 screaming to the skies about the Season not being canon, and wisely ran off back to his camp to sleep.
Day 3
Bale saw Route and Alivia delivering a burger to him as breakfast... Confused, he decided to eat it, after all it couldn't be too bad.
Bale: Thanks guys, this means a lot.
But as soon as he prepared to eat it, it's smell knocked him out, allowing the duo to rob his camp. After waking up, he looked at the sky and raised his fist.
Bale: Agh, I'll never forgive the Mexicans... They have absolutely nothing to do with this, but I ain't forgiving them.
He then began rebuilding his camp.
"Bingo! If two species hate each other, they will wipe each other out on their own."
