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....

"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

"Living a lie isn't the best option, but when it's the only thing I can do to survive, when it's my only choice, what else can I do?" In which Satin Nicholo strives to survive even when the odds are stacked against her because she knows that the Gamemakers are going to make her life particularly challenging; having a knack for knowing her weaknesses before she's even aware of them. Playing a role, making unthinkable sacrifices and living a lie. It's the price she has to pay for following in the footsteps of her siblings. 𓆩♡𓆪 Cato Hadley X fem!OC Pre Hunger Games ➸ Post Mockingjay (begins during the 66th Hunger Games)

ᥫ᭡ ʚ⋆ 𝜗𝜚 ⋆ɞ ᥫ᭡ Isadora Odair is just twelve years old when she is reaped for the 72nd Hunger Games. In a district that idolizes the Games, Isadora has spent her life dreaming of the honor it could bring. Enthralled by the Capitol's dazzling promises, she delights in the lavish costumes, the training, and the spotlight, never questioning the price of glory. Manipulated by propaganda and blinded by ambition, she views the arena as a stage for greatness, unaware of the horrors waiting within. But as the Games unfold, Isadora's carefully built illusions begin to shatter. The arena is not a dream; it's a nightmare, forcing her to face the Capitol's lies and the brutal reality of survival. Stripped of her innocence, she must decide if she will cling to what she's been taught or fight to forge her own path.
