Everyone loves Sally Jackson, and by extension, her son Percy. Her kindness, charity and loyalty has rubbed off on him, and half of the people who live in the Seam are only alive because of the two of them. Sally is skilled in sewing and healing, and all of her pay goes straight to the hungry, because she knows Percy will bring home food from his hunting. Unbeknownst to her, Percy has also entered his name into the Hunger Games an obscene amount of times, giving all of his subsidies to families like the Everdeens. Percy's life changes irrevocably when Sally is killed, sending him into a deep depression. Primrose Everdeen, the only contestant to Sally in terms of popularity because of her lovable nature, becomes his new purpose, but what happens when Katniss volunteers for her in the Reaping, and Percy himself is chosen next? Will he fight for survival, or for something else entirely? This story pretends that Trials of Apollo doesn't exist. Sorry. Also, disclaimer: I obviously don't own anything except the plot of this story.

Annabeth and Percy find themselves as the district 12 candidates in the 74th Hunger Games. Thrown into the arena with trained killers, they have to do what it takes to survive.
