It's the year 2725 and everything is going great for the world. There's no more war, no famine or disease, we've found an alternative energy source for...everything, and everyone is happy. Well, that's at least what the Officials think. Narri knows better. The world has advanced, technology has advanced, animals have advanced, and most of all people have advanced. It's very uncommon, rare even, to get the Gene, and most of the time people live their lives never knowing they have it. The Gene is power. The Gene is life altering. The Gene is terrifying to the Officials. If found at an early age, the Gene can be terminated and the person will go on living a normal, healthy life. If found in a later on age, the Gene can change your life forever. Whether for the good or bad, Narri wants to find out.

(This is the book 2 of POE chronicles - please check out book 1 Evolution first ) Evolution had created us. Allowed us to be different, given us a chance to survive outside the walls of Citybases. But evolution had also made them. They might not be as intelligent as we are, but nature is on their side this time around. This is a game of survival; a game to see who adapt faster and grow stronger. You have no idea who your enemies are or what to believe. All you can do is try your best to stay alive. Nature only favours those with the right adaptation, ruthlessly eliminating the rest. Nature will make you. It will also break you. Only the fittest survive.

Have you ever wondered what would have happened if Katniss Everdeen didn't go to save Peeta Mellark right away? Or what would have happened to Panem if Katniss hadn't become the Mockingjay? What if Katniss ended up with Gale? The possibilities of how the story could have went are endless. I've questioned the events in "The Hunger Games" Triology, and this is my take on how a small shift of events can affect Panem's future forever.

Everyone thought they were fighting for equality. That they were fighting, primarily, to end the Hunger Games. To end the brutal murder of twenty-three children each year. People killed for this, fought for it, died for it. But they lied. The bodies have barely been cleared from the streets before President Coin makes an announcement; the Hunger Games will continue. But the children of the Districts are safe. It's the Capitol children who face death this time around, and everyone is excited for the fun to begin.

"Two shots. And I just knew who had been the targets. I knew whose heads those guns had aimed at. Will's eyes met mine over the table, and we both saw the despair in each others eyes. Once again, no words were needed. Two bullets. Our lives would never be the same." Fourteen year old Cassidy Wildeman is fighting for her and her family's lives. They're starving, and she has no way to save them but to kill herself. Before she get the chance to commit suicide, she's reaped into the 69th Hunger Games. She is soon sucked into a dangerous game of lies, love, revolution, hate, loyalty and death... Where only one can survive.

The sixth quarter (or one hundred and fiftieth games) is going to be a challenge because the only way of getting food, water or weapons is from sponsors. It is told by twelve year old Jasmine from district one. Who will survive the games? Happy Hunger Games and my the odds be EVER in your favour.

9 years has passed for the Mellark family. Peeta, Katniss and their daughter Aloe are oblivious to the upcoming event and are once again thrust into the drama of the Hunger Games as the Quarter Quell brings forth two Champions. Who will be chosen and who will survive as the rules predict the unchanging one survivor making it out of the arena.

It has been a century since the rebellion, and the Capitol still wants revenge... As it is the Fourth Quarter Quell, there will be four games held this year. One will be held with twenty-four children reaped from Districts One to Four. The second will have twenty-four children reaped from Districts Five to Eight. The third will have twenty-four children reaped only from Districts Nine to Twelve. There will be six tributes reaped from each of the twelve Districts, and eight people will win each of the three Games giving us twenty-four finalists to take part in the Ultimate Games where only one will prevail victorious. Overall, seventy one children will die in this years Hunger Games and one will survive. May the odds be EVER in your favour....

Aloe Mellark is the daughter to Katniss and Peeta. With her 12th birthday nearing and the Hunger Games soon after the family is on edge. Though it is only her first time to the reaping Katniss and Peeta feel that the odds may be rigged and President Snow may finally have his chance to make them pay for the havock they caused all those years ago. Just as they predicted Aloe was chosen as a tribute for District 12 but so is her old brother River. This time only one will be a champion, the question is who?

What would have happened if Katniss didn't take Prim's spot in The Hunger Games? Would anything be any different? Would a new story unfold? This is my version. *WARNING: Things have been changed. Don't say I didn't warn you.*
