"Lucy Gray!" His voice echoed through the forest along with the singing of the mockingjays which picked up her song. Catching her breath, Lucy Gray did her best to calm herself. Not that he'll find her anyway, this hiding spot has been proven and tested to hide her until she decides to go down from these trees. She watched Coriolanus lose his mind trying to look for her. Clutching the scarf he gave her, the smell of roses strong as ever, she was having a hard time deciding what should be her next move. The scarf all but reminded her of the boy she trusted. The boy she loved. But their conversation moments ago made her question if she could still say the same. If she could still say she trusted him the same way she did in the arena. How funny is it really. It seemed as though she got out of the arena just to find herself in a bigger one. Only this time, she was weighing if she could still trust the only person she counted on in terms of protecting her life. ---- Had things ended differently. Had they made another choice. How much would their fate change? Would their ballad still end as cold and lost as they were?

What if instead of becoming a peacekeeper, Coriolanus Snow became Panem's most infamous reality TV villain? Thrust into the unforgiving and glaring spotlight of public life as a victorious mentor alongside Lucy Gray, Coriolanus Snow finds his entire life being streamed live across Panem... all orchestrated by Dr. Gaul, of course. Thanks to her cunning handiwork, he has no choice but to star in Villa Victorious, a reality show created to keep the citizens invested in the games all year long. She insists it's a learning experience, a vital part of his apprenticeship to becoming a master gamemaker. The only way for him to truly understand just how to captivate and control an audience. But will the collateral damage be worth it as all of Panem witness Coriolanus's relationships and sanity erupt into flames? This story begins after the 10th Annual Hunger Games, as Coriolanus is about to be reunited with Lucy Gray for the first time after the games. It will appeal to fans of George Saunders' "Escape From Spiderhead" and George Orwell's 1984.

ℝ𝔼ℚ𝕌𝔼𝕊𝕋𝕊 = 𝕆ℙ𝔼ℕ So basically a bunch of oneshots/imagines about characters from the hunger games that are mostly in the background.

In a brutal world where only the strongest survive, two young women from different districts are forced to fight for their lives in the deadly Hunger Games. Liora Vale, a skilled lumberjack from District 7, has always relied on her strength and instincts to survive. Amara Kestrel, a brilliant technician from District 3, uses her mind to outwit her enemies. When their paths cross in the arena, they form an uneasy alliance-each driven by the will to survive, but neither prepared for the bond that begins to form between them. As the Games grow more dangerous, their connection deepens, and they discover that survival might not be the only thing worth fighting for. But when the Capitol's manipulation of the arena becomes clear, they must decide whether to keep fighting for their lives-or risk everything to defy the system that controls them. In a world where love is a rebellion, can they survive long enough to make a difference? The Games are far from over-and the odds are not in their favor.

It's the 49th annual Hunger Games. Penelope Williams has just turned 18 years old and she's a few hours away from freedom. Penny has big dreams, and an even bigger one to survive. Come see what happens at her final reaping, and maybe what's to come next! Author's Note: Hey y'all! This is a fun short story that I wrote after I saw the new Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes movie. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it, so I thought I'd put it onto paper. There are lots of parallels in this as my ode to the queen herself, Mrs. Suzanne Collins. Let me know what y'all think in the comments. I might continue writing and see where the story goes, but we'll see. Enjoy! *Disclaimer: I own nothing in regards to any of Suzanne Collin's work. This is just for fun and all characters and rights and images belong to her.*

Oh, Fantine, Fantine, Fantine...A woman the Capitol deems a completely brainless girl with nothing short of looks and a bubbly personality. Even when she puts on a pretty smile and dress after her name is plucked from the pool of names on Reaping Day, she feels the weight of the universe's choices and can't help but wonder when or if she'll see her District 8 again. A seamstress, never known for being violent or crude, has to stick up her chin and learn to fight in hopes of returning home. Just days short of finally being put to the test of her short week of training, she meets a woman nothing like herself-a victor from the year before: Johanna Mason. A gutsy, quick-witted, and bold woman meets face-to-face -and not quite eye-to-eye- with a charismatic, energetic, and sensitive woman. Surprisingly enough, Johanna finds herself begrudgingly intrigued enough to try to help out her struggling mentors: Enola Fitzgerald and Leonidas Finch. Fantine always had a way to get to people-especially the people like Johanna-, almost always being positive. Maybe one day the odds shall align for her. Johanna Mason x Original Character

This is the beginning of a development in the 'Hunger Games' story; The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins. It would potentially explore an alternative ending to one of the main characters, Lucy Gray Baird. Please read on if you have read this book and know the story. So far, it is only one chapter, but that is because I wanted you to read it and get the feel of my writing, since this is my first ever Wattpad story (!). Please, please let me know in the comments if you would like me to continue writing this story and developing the plotline. Enjoy! ⚠️Contains spoilers for the book The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes⚠️ I do not own any of the characters, all rights go to the original author, Suzanne Collins.
