    Summary

    This might be the last story I ever tell. Definitely the last story I will ever type on this laptop, as I plan to chuck this cursed device into the nearest pool of acid the very second I send this draft to Calliope for proofreads and erase this whole episode from my memory. Hermes said it would do nothing to destroy any of the actual content on it, as everything is “stored in the Cloud” nowadays, but go for it man, get it out of your system. Lately, everybody’s been telling me to go for it man, get it out of your system. They’ve also been walking on eggshells and keep giving me their therapists’ contact information.

    Wow, Apollo, you may be wondering. What is this tale about? Can it really be more traumatic than your six month road trip across America, bound to a pipsqueak slave-master and fighting off such distinguished enemies as real estate tycoons, giant snakes, horse-fuckers, the specters of all your past regrets and/or mistakes, fungal acne and your toxic ex?

    Yes. It can. You can stop trying to hide your glee, reader.

    Apollo thought his trials were over. Well, Apollo thought wrong.

    Summary

    In Capitol homes, they are celebrating for him. Hermes knows this like he knows he is a tribute, like he knows his own face in a mirror. Drunken ladies in feather boas are cutting cakes into transparently thin slivers and a pop star is singing the Happy Birthday Song on the radio. Balloons are filled from the nation’s last helium reserves, and decorations are hung up red and gold, his favorite colors, he’d told Caesar that, hadn’t he? I like your hair, Caesar!
    The girl stops running. She turns to face him, legs wobbling, bent down over her knees. “Please…don’t.” She’s from Three, and skinny like a piece of copper wire. Her nose drips, and she’s missing a boot. There’s no light in her eyes, nothing at all behind them. “I can’t…I don’t--”
    He raises his spear, and for one crazy moment he considers telling her it’s his birthday. Instead, he jams the weapon into her stomach.

    Nine short stories set in and around the Annual Hunger Games.
