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.

The end of the Hunger Games - abrupt, unsatisfying, mysterious? Gale Hawthorne was forgotten after the Rebellion ceased - now he is back to tell his tale. Living alone in District 2, Gale still feels as though something is missing in his life - her. And so when fate has it that when Katniss Everdeen turns up on his doorstep, Gale cannot believe his luck... Until he finds out why she has come. Peeta Mellark is missing. A power as strong as the Capitol cannot be stopped forever. The continued tale of Katniss Everdeen, Peeta Mellark, Gale Hawthorne, and the other characters of THE HUNGER GAMES.

President Paylor has been assassinateded by Alva Snow; who returns to take over Panem with a fiery vengance. The 77th Hunger Games have officially begun. Silver Iris and Rye Mellark have been drafted in the Reaping - along with Axel Hawthorne, Retiarius Odair, Alura Abiteth, and twenty-one helpless others. Will Gale and Katniss finally receive their long awaited apologies, or will bitterness take a deeper root? Will the Capitol's invisible grasp on Katniss and Peeta's mind weaken, or will watching their children suffer drive them over the edge? Twenty-six tributes, only one can live. Happy Hunger Games. And may the odds be ever in your favor.

Thanks to my editors... check out their works! Izzy (bellabooily1997) Lizzy (MySweetSunshine) Since Suzanne Collins wrote from Katniss's point of view, I decided it would be fun to write from Peeta's point of view. All characters belong on Suzanne Collins. (Sorry for any inaccuracies, I lent my book to a friend, so I'm basing this off of memory.)
