"It took about a week for his competitors to realize that he was the one to kill, but it was too late." Everyone has heard Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark's story, and there are brief moments you hear about Finnick Odair's story. But what is his story, his true story? This is the 65th Hunger Games. Finnick is manipulated by the Capitol, forced to be a piece in their game or his family and his one true love will suffer. That's the hunger games. So let the Hunger Games begin. And may the odds be ever in your favor...

In the city of Panem, there are twelve districts. Each year one girl and one boy from each district are drawn to play in a game. Specifically, the Hunger Games. Twenty four enter the arena, but only one comes out. In the poor district known as District Eleven, a young twelve year old girl enters in her first reaping. Rue, small, kind, and innocent is entered into the 74th Annual Hunger Games. Follow the Hunger Games from Rue's point of view in this story and re-live Suzanne Collins' amazing novel, The Hunger Games.

Have you ever wondered what the first Hunger Games was like? There are quite a few inconsistencies that I am working on changing at the moment, I also plan to lengthen some chapters. Please wait to read this book until it has been re-titled as 'The 1st Ever Hunger Games - Updated'. This process shouldn't take too long now. Thanks for being patient with me.

(MAJOR CHANGES SINCE THE RELEASE OF BALLAD WHEN I GET THE CHANCE) In the wake of a rebellion, the Capitol established the Hunger Games, an annual event in which twenty-four children between the ages of twelve and eighteen, one boy and one girl from each district, are chosen from a lottery and entered into a gladiatorial competition where they must fight each other to the death until only one remains standing. The first hunger games weren't special. They were 24 tributes who barely made it through to the beginning of the games, treated like wild animals up to said events, not allowed to be fed or spoken to. What was it like in the eyes of the first victor and how did the capitol citizens feel about the games?

It's the Eleventh annual Hunger Games, and 16-year-old Mags Flanagan is selected as the girl tribute from District Four. Find out how she won her Games, and how she became the quiet, loving Mags we all know from Catching Fire.

What if Katniss never volunteered for Prim? What would her story be like? Most likely, she would have been killed by one of the career tributes. But what if the odds really are in her favor? Read Prim's story, as she is picked for the 74th annual Hunger Games to fight to the death.

Let's just say Katniss never volunteered for Prim, and Prim made it out alive. She's faced with more challenges, of course. The Third Quarter Quell is now here and Prim is thrown back in the games along with an unexpected volunteer. This is Prim's story, Catching Fire: Prim.

We know how the Hunger Games goes- Katniss volunteers for her younger sister and wins the games, escapes the Quell, and wins the rebellion. Well guess what, that never happened. Not in this account, anyways. Instead, Katniss never volunteered for Prim, and our little brave Primrose Everdeen won the games at age 12 and escapes the Quarter Quell. But it's not over. This is Prim's story, Mockingjay: Prim. This is a fan-fiction based on the novel "Mockingjay" by Suzanne Collins. *I do not own any rights to the characters, ideas, plot, dialogue, and whatsoever.

When the laws of the Hunger Games were laid out, they dictated that every twenty-five years the anniversary would be marked by a Quarter Quell. It would call for a glorified version of the Games to make the fresh the memory of those killed by the districts' rebellion. Now we honor our fourth Quarter Quell. On the one hundredth anniversary, as a reminder to the rebels that the Dark Days only served to tear their families apart, each district will be required to send two sets of siblings. The new government that came with the rebellion Katniss started has been overthrown. President Snow's granddaughter is ruling Panem now, and she has proven to be more ruthless than he ever was. Katniss and Peeta were publicly executed after the Capitol took over again, and District 13 was completely obliterated. Since then, the Hunger Games have been harsher than ever. This Quarter Quell promises to be the worst Games since the rebellion. This story is being entered in the 2015 Wattys! Comment and vote and read please!
