"That lipstick doesn't suit you. Red's not your color," he throws out casually before heading for the door. "I didn't ask for your opinion," I snap, turning toward him. "Good luck, Noel," he pauses for half a second, flicking the last cigarette away. That smug expression lingers in his green eyes. I scowl, hating how he stands there like nothing happened, casually toying with his cigarette. Faintly, I hear fans roar as he steps forward and blows a smoke stream right in my face. • Rock Me is a legendary rock band that has earned the title of the most popular band in the world thanks to their powerhouse hits, insane on-stage energy, and unique style. But Noel and Harry, the band's lead singers- can't stand each other. Noel is too weak and helpless to stand up to the arrogant, cocky Harry, who radiates nothing but darkness. ALTERNATE UNIVERSE!

"And I hear your ship is coming in, your tears a sea for me to swim. And I hear a storm is coming in. My dear, is that all we've ever been?" Nixie Shoal was one of the very few tributes who smiled at her reaping, she had been playing games since she was born after all, what's one more?

'I don't like that falling feels like flying 'till the bone crush' As the reigning victor of the 65th Hunger Games, Finnick Odair is no stranger to adoration and attention. But when he finds himself inexplicably drawn to Genevieve Coppergrove, district four's female tribute and his own protégé.

Thirteen-year-old Desiree Draven never thought she'd be chosen for the Hunger Games. She was too young, too small, too unprepared. But when her name is called at the reaping for the 72nd Hunger Games, her world shatters. Leaving behind her grieving mother, her protective older brother, and the boy she loves, Desiree is thrust into a world of glittering deception and brutal survival. Under the guidance of her mentor, Finnick Odair, she must transform from a quiet fishergirl into a competitor worthy of the Capitol's attention, and the Gamemakers' mercy. But Desiree isn't alone. There's Koen Billingsley, her cold and formidable fellow tribute from District 4. With danger lurking behind every alliance and the odds stacked against her, Desiree will have to fight for more than just survival, she'll have to fight to prove she's not just another forgotten tribute. She promised Caspian she'd come home. But in a game where only one can survive, promises are impossible to keep....

⋆｡𖦹 ˚ 𓇼 ˚｡⋆ Ondine Shafton always knew there was a lingering chance of her being reaped. She never thought she would get reaped with her best friend. How will they both navigate through the games while facing arduous and unknown feelings for each other. ⋆｡𖦹 ˚ 𓇼 ˚｡⋆ WARNING - contains mature language and topics, including violence, death and trauma.

"Someone's mother, someone's daughter. Holds your hands through plastic now, Doc I think she's crashing out. And some things you just can't speak about..." "Aviana Campbell, you've noticed her edge, I presume?" he waits for her to nod before continuing, "Capitol manufactured venom runs through her blood vessels from where a snake mutation bit her during her games." They watch as she throws cleaver after cleaver, each one with meticulous precision and brutal force. The projections pixelate almost rhythmically, one after another as she hits their abdomens and crania in turn. "Didn't she receive an antidote from a sponsor?" Katniss asks in confusion, she had watched snippets of the young girls games. Beetee hums, "Yes, the antidote prevented her from dying...the Capitol didn't bother to take away the side effects however. Hallucinations, voices in her head, anger. They've manipulated her perspective of reality to make her more entertaining...that girl has been groomed into the perfect Capitol weapon from the inside outwards." Pre Hunger Games - Mockingjay

She's a Siren. If you hear her voice, run. Don't look back. 𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 Carolina Seymour has always hated Finnick Odair, and clearly, the feeling is mutual. But when she gets reaped for the 68th Hunger Games, and Finnick is assigned to be her mentor, she has to put all of her past feelings about him aside and learn how to trust him. If she didn't, she'd be as good as dead. What she didn't account for was actually learning to like the boy, let alone falling in love with him. 𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 Warning: contains topics of violence, death, and trauma Written by: @dahliaswishes Edited by: @moldyvoldy14 Pre Hunger Games - Mockingjay Part II

The founding principle amongst the Pogues: no secrets. Unless, of course, you are sleeping with one. Three weeks ago, Parker Kate Routledge had everything she could ever want: four hundred million dollars worth of gold bars, a brand-new hot tub, and JJ Maybank naked in her bed. It was too good to last, and in a matter of days, it all came crashing down. The gold is gone. Her father was murdered. Her twin brother is dead. Now, Parker spends her days huddled in bed and her nights with the stars, wishing for John B to come back. She has truly lost everything -- her family, her fortune, and herself. JJ Maybank never expected his own words to bite him. For constantly saying he had "nothing to lose," he sure lost a lot. His best friend died, and now he watches the girl he loves slowly slip through his fingers. The light has gone from his favorite brown and blue eyes, and it's killing him. With a hole in his chest and Parker fading fast, JJ fights to keep himself and Parker afloat while keeping it quiet that he and Parker had sunk under the covers. When an unexpected message comes through, the Pogues are on another mission -- one important enough to get Parker out of bed and back on her feet. With fresh charges, more treasure, and a rapidly blossoming romance lying ahead for the teens, it's time for Parker and JJ to decide what they are...and how to keep a secret from their nosy friends.

Niamh Murphy was reaped for the 69th annual hunger games, how will she fare in this game of survival?

Mice were common creatures inside the homes of District Nine. A constant reminder of their failure during the rebellion. Originally released by their oppressors as a form of biological weapons, it wasn't uncommon to see their descendant's scurrying the dirt streets. When the Capitol learned of them being easily slayed during the war, they modified the failed jabberjays to attack anyone who harmed the disease carriers. A trait that the Mockingjay sadly kept. To this day the people of Nine can't go near a mouse without the birds attacking. As after all... what was a Mockingjay without a Mouse by their side? ༻❁༺ pre hunger games, to mockingjay part two
