The Mockingbird Watches (A Hunger Games Murdergame)

Jindra frowns. "I thought not... anyway, might as well introduce myself. I'm Jindra!"

Amiya soon spots the other two and says,    "I do not know either. But I feel some kind of anxiety among us all."   

   "I also wonder who are these other people?"    Amiya refers to the other unopened beds with their occupants inside.

Specified a bit by adding the occupants detail.

Jindra looks at one of the pods. "Alright, what do we have here?"

Melody blinked a bit, wincing a bit at the bright lights, as she sat up in bed. She rubbed her eyes then was startled to see some people walking around.

   These... "Hunger Games", I've heard of them before, a cruel, barbaric, bloodsport, many enter, only one leaves. That simian race my kind exterminated would be right at home here.   

Amiya introduces herself, as she forgot earlier,    "Oh right. I'm Amiya, the leader of Rhodes Island."   

She the notices Melody and Thawn waking up. Responding to Thawn, she says as her expression turns into that of fury,    "You hunted down humans like us? I will make sure that you will be punished for that crime. It reminds me of what the Reunion Movement did to the Non-Infected."   

In the meantime, someone is walking down the hallway and into the room that 1/3 of the people have woken up. However no one can see them because the door is closed.

"That's a lot of new, confusing words," Jindra says. "But I think I know who I'm siding with here."

A stick figure suddenly wakes up and goes out of his bedroom. He has a name tag indicating that his name is Henry Stickmin. He proceeds to wave to everyone.

Hey!

The little boy Max wakes up in his room, before polishing his Opaque Nerd Glasses and rushing out the door, attempting to get ready for anything and internally panicking.

H-H-Hi everyone!

A boy of preteen age steps out of his bedroom.

"Yo, what's happening? I don't remember this. Maybe I skipped through all the dialogue too fast." Dumy shrugs.

"Whatever. My Pokémon are strong enough to handle this for me."

A dark-haired pale-skinned woman who appears to be thirty-ish gets out of her bod bed thing and glances around.

"What have I gotten myself into now...?"

Henry quickly looks around and shrugs, not knowing what this place is either.

Amiya notices the others waking up, so she greets them and introduces herself again. Eventually, with 6 having to yet wake up, the sound of door sliding can be heard.

A man is revealed. He seems to be average-height, blonde, blue-eyed and dressed in a simple white, red and yellow classical military uniform. He speaks, "ahem. Welcome to the first season of the Ideaversal Hunger Games. I'm Samuel Maximus, the current Head Gamemaker."

Amiya asks him, still in an angry tone,    "What is a Head Gamemaker like you?"   . Samuel just answers, "Simple, I ensure that the games will be run smoothly."

Max's eyes quickly darted around, seeing who he's stuck with. After a little trial and error, he settled on waking towards Henry.

H-Hello... he squints to read Henry's name tag H-Henry Stickmin? T-That's your name, right? If it isn't, I'm dreadfully sorry. D-Do y-you want to be friends?

Henry nods and offers a handshake to Max.

He accepts the handshake T-Thanks... for that...

"What's the Ideaverse?" Jindra asks. "Is it some sort of entertainment company?"

"I'm Kennifer, by the way."

Hunger games? Hoo boy, she did not like the sound of this...

Amiya sees it and says after sensing Max's emotions,    "Don't worry, Max. I'll also protect you from whatever this is."   

Meanwhile, Samuel continues, "so the people of Panem are now hungry for blood, and you will provide them with the feast of combat. Anyway, I realized that I should explain what a Hunger Game is to you."

"To sum up, it's currently a death game that's held to both celebrate our glorious state's crushing of the rebellions, as well as imprint ideas of our nation for eternal remembrance."

"Anyway, I'll wake up the others myself if they take too long. Also are you curious to see what's inside that pod?" Samuel gestures to the opaque one.

Jindra puts their weaker arm up to their eye. "Oh, crap... I'm stuck in a dictatorship, aren't I?"

Henry sighs, having been stuck in other precarious situations before.

A pointy-haired bean counter with giant round glasses somehow trips and falls out of his pod.

"Oof..."

"Yeah, I don't like the sounds of this at all."

[Sorbet Shark Cookie, having apparently emerged from their pod while nobody was looking because I was asleep when this game went live, slowly hides behind Kennifer upon hearing about what a “Hunger Game” actually is. They mutter something that sounds like... bubbles? Very frightened bubbles, but bubbles nonetheless.]

"Meh, I'm sure I'll get out fine," [Dumy says coolly.]

"After all, I've gotten out of literally every dangerous situation I've been in unscathed." [He chuckles.] "Those evil teams really thought their Koffings and Rattatas were special, huh..."
