"WE PRESENT TO YOU, THE OFFICIAL VICTORS OF THE 106TH DÉCÈS MATCH!"
Jihoon couldn't believe it. How dare they present him and the dead bodies of their teammates in front of countless people. They were evil. As If it wasn't enough that they had to go through the match.
The two were escorted inside the Presidential Palace where they were treated and cleaned up, dressed in the finest clothes in preparation for the awarding ceremony, to be followed by the press conference.
As the two were being prepared, Seungkwan couldn't help but feel even more anxious. "Hyung, I don't think I can keep up with this anymore. I might break any moment now. I can't break. This is not the time to break."
"Hey hey hey, you've done well. And you're continuing to do well. You can do it okay? At least until after the conference."
A knock sounded through the door. It was time for the awarding ceremony.
"Once more, the official victors of the 106th Décès Match! Students of Académie Céleste!"
More cheers. But the cheers somehow reminded the two of the screams from the Arena.
The two held hands and with tears in their eyes, they raised their hands to cheer about their victory. President Hawthorne approached the two, placing golden wreaths atop of their heads. "You two have done well." He says as the two bowed in front of the President.
They were presented once more, and now it was time for the part they dreaded the most. The Press conference.
Speeches were given. And now it was time for questions.
"Why didn't you help your leader the moment you knew that he was in trouble?"
Woozi's breath hitched, but he answered nonetheless. "He told me not to. He didn't want to lose any more of his members. I was just following orders."
"This question is for Seungkwan. Do you think that if you would've created more illusions, it would've helped your leader more?"
Woozi squeezed Seungkwan's shoulder comfortingly. "Well. Maybe. Maybe not, we never really know. It may have, but it also may have made things worse."
"Do you think you two are really deserving to be the winners?"
"We will not answer that question."
"What thoughts did you keep inside your head so you could continue with the match?"
Woozi looked at the reporter and looked straight into the camera that was broadcasting everything live. "That nothing was real and everything will be alright in the end."
Everyone erupted into laughter at his statement. "What do you mean with that?" The reporter questioned.
"This is what we mean by that."
A shattering was heard everywhere.
And right in front of them, standing in all their glory, all 13 tributes appeared.
"We know about the Match officials tampering with the controls." Hoshi revealed.
Seungcheol gazed darkly at the audience. "And we know how we were sent for their enjoyment. We were sent not to honour the heroes before us, but to serve as entertainment."
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the last leader to leave his words.
"And we've come to end the empire that this government has built. You've all forced us unto this battlefield. And no mercy shall set foot onto this battlefield."
