The Capitol Coliseum: once used for entertainment and fun, now only filled with horror and bloodshed.
Due to unavailable, costly reconstruction of the Coliseum caused by anti-Capitol terrorist bombings during the previous Hunger Games, the 2nd Hunger Games saw tributes thrown into the still-destroyed amphitheater. Countless piles of concrete rubble dotted the coliseum pit and stands.

Pre-Games[]
Once reaped, this yearβs batch of tributes are forced into boxcars on trains that transports them to the Capitol, where they are then dumped into old, muddy horse stables to sleep for the night until the Games begin.
The Capitol provides no food or water to the tributes, causing unhealthy malnutrition. The crappy stables also welcomed diseased rats and critters, sickening tributes and decreasing their overall health.
The next morning, the Peacekeepers round up the tributes out of the stables and into steel, peacekeeper trucks, driving to the dreadful Capitol Coliseum.
The 2nd Hunger Games[]
Upon arrival at the Coliseum, the tributes enter the destroyed amphitheatre through turnstiles, where they are instructed to stand on dirt piles, facing towards the center of various weaponry, and would be shot on sight if caught leaving their designated mark.
In the middle of the lifeless, rebel-torn pit is a pyramid of organized rubble. Weapons of all kind, tridents, knives, axes, swords, and spears galore lay beside or on top of the debris.
A pre-recorded message on a PA welcomes the tributes to the Capitol Arena and once again reminds the tributes if they are to step off their mark, they will be shot. The voice counts down on a ten second timer, before a gun shoots off by a Peacekeeper, signaling the tributes to fight.
Suddenly, deafening grenades are heard being detonated at the entrances of the arena, destroying the doors. Capitol rebel factions have broken down the exits to let tributes escape, calling out for all twenty-four to run.
In what feels like at the speed of light, tributes grab weapons and run towards the opportunity of freedom. However, not before Peacekeepers intercept them to stop them from leaving. Tributes begin banding together and attacking the guards, while others flee the stadium in the chaos.
Notably, Paisleigh of District 10 kills ten Peacekeepers in a row by disarming a Peacekeeper and using their gun to fire at other guards trying to apprehend her, before she is shot in the back of the head.
In just a mere five minutes after the countdown sequence, all twenty-four tributes had fled outside, leaving the entire Capitol Coliseum devoid of life.
Post-Games[]
This Hunger Games, much like the previous year, offered no victor and was dismissed as another fiasco to the Capitol. All recordings and archives to these Games were dispersed as well.
Out of all twenty-four tributes that had escaped the arena, ten had been arrested or gunned down by Peacekeepers or Peacekeeper reinforcements. The following list goes in order:
-Jasper (D1M)
-Jacinth (D1F)
-Raquelle (D2F)
-Nissan (D6F)
-Hummer (D6M)
-Claudius (D2M)
-Hetcher (D9M)
-Ethel (D9F)
-Hydrin (D5M)
-Paisleigh (D10F)
The fourteen remaining tributes and the rebels had ran off during the catastrophe and their current whereabouts remain unknown.
Due to the Coliseumβs crumbling appearance and inability to host future Hunger Games, it was demolished the following month, replaced by the Capitol Arena, an indoor, newly refurbished stadium designed and built for the purpose of the Hunger Games, which would go on to symbolize as a beacon of the Capitolβs resilience despite hardships and turmoil.
