What if Katniss loved Peeta in The Hunger Games and wasn't acting? What if Gale liked Katniss and the feeling wasn't mutual? Starting with Catching Fire, this is my version.

After the Victor's tour Katniss finds out she's pregnant with Peeta's baby. The bad part is that the Quarter Quell, 75th games, are supposed to happen while she's pregnant and almost due. WARNING: THIS STORY WAS WRITTEN WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG. THE STORYLINE DOESN'T REALLY MAKE SENSE AND ITS POORLY WRITTEN -> I am very slowly working to rewrite this and will hopefully someday be able to update it into a better story for those who enjoyed it. Chapters 1 & 2 are updated and these versions are at the end of the story until I can redo it all

Katniss finds out she's pregnant in the quell! Will the baby survive? Or will Katniss even survive? All will be revealed...

The Victory Tour? Over. The Quarter Quell? Over. Katniss's life? Over, as far as Peeta knows. Sure, the games may be over for Katniss and Peeta, but the real battle is only just beginning. The Rebels in District 13 managed to get 3 Victors out of the arena. Peeta Mellark, Finnick Odair, and Beetee Latier are seemingly safe in the depths of 13. Katniss Everdeen, Johanna Mason, Enobaria, and Annie Cresta are seemingly dead in the custody of the Capitol. They're being held prisoners, having God-knows-what done to them. Their strength will be tested. Their loyalty will be questioned. Their love will be jeopardized. How will Peeta deal with Katniss being held prisoner in the Capitol? How will the Rebels get her out? And most importantly, what will the aftermath be? DISCLAIMER 1: I do not own ANY of these characters - all Hunger Games material belongs to Suzanne Collins. DISCLAIMER 2: I started writing this when I was like 13 so pls be nice <3 TW: mentions of torture, PTSD, death, suicide/suicidal ideation, and a whole host of other mental illnesses

What if Katniss had been the one left in the arena? What if Katniss had been hijacked and Peeta had been swept to safety to District 13. What if the man of words was left without the one he loved? Let's find out together.
