One game. 16 Contestants. 1 Winner.
After conquering all of planet Earth, the Xentis empires rules with an iron fist...and a bit of brutal fun.
Once every year, every criminal and outlaw compete in a fight-to-the-death competition watched by the rest of the world. The stakes? Death. The single competitor who survives and wins is named the Vanquisher, given a second chance and trained to fight for the emperor alongside with past years Vanquishers.
Karissa, the kingdom's most notorious assassin, has been on a murderous streak for years now. But on one fateful night, her attempt to take the youngest princess's life fail, and she lands her place in the kingdom's dungeon...and a spot in the anual Games of Death. But ten months in prison haven't dulled her skills and reflexes, weakened her determination to win, or caused her hatred towards the empire to waver. The Games of Death may be a punishment, but Karissa sees it as an opportunity to overthrow the emperor's vicious rule once and for all.
Aina had once been an abused child, a talented actress, and just another member of The Rising Insurgency, a group of rebels. Now, after winning the games two years ago, she's one of the emperor's most trusted Vanquisher. But being the emperor's right hand had lead Aina to realizing that things are not as they seem. She may be part of his elite guards, but that doesn't mean she can't have her own plans for the future of the Xentist empire.
Among the deaths and heat of the Games of Death, unexpected alliance are forged and hope for a new kingdom arises. But salvation doesn't come without a price.

One minute she was fighting Valg, the next in a house she doesn't know, clothes she doesn't own, and about to walk down to a square full of people to be reaped. After volunteering for a girl she doesn't know, shoving the girl's sister back, and fighting the Valg she thought she left behind on stage, Aelin-or Celaena-is officially in the Hunger Games. Read to find out how she royally screws up the timeline, royally fixes it later, and tries to find a way back home. ••• Quotes from the books will be scattered around. Only up to QoS, though, since that's when this book starts. I own nothing. Throne of Glass belongs to Sarah J Maas. The Hunger Games belongs to Suzanne Collins. And before you ask-because I know some of you will-no, this is not a Peeta x Aelin fanfic. Katniss x Gale (since, you know. Katniss doesn't go into the games, as you can see in the summary) Peeta will be a single pringle. Or I might just throw in a random OC and have them get together. Or I might kill him off. ••• DOES NOT FOLLOW EXACT DETAILS OF THE BOOK. IF I GET SOMETHING WRONG, IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THAT WAY SO DON'T CORRECT ME. ••• This is not finished. As in, the first chapter isn't finished. Not sure when it will be because I'm a procrastinator, but I thought I'd publish what I have so far to see if people like it.Complete

Gale: A Hunger Games Story
"And Gale. I know him. He won't be shouting and cheering. But he'll be watching, every moment, every twist and turn, and willing me to come home." - Katniss Everdeen, The Hunger Games Katniss Everdeen is fighting for her life in the 74th Annual Hunger Games. We know her story. But have you ever wondered what it was like on the home front, in District 12? This story is Gale's, his outlook on the games, his feelings about his best friend's situation, and his interactions with the people of District 12. The story is set during the time period of "The Hunger Games" (book one of the trilogy). It is written from the perspective of Gale Hawthorne, and does not concern any events in books two and three. This is my first fan fiction, my first "real" attempt at long form prose writing, and my first Wattpad story. I appreciate constructive feedback, but please, no hate. While the characters and some plot points are based off of Suzanne Collins's Hunger Games Trilogy, (which I in no way own the rights to) I have created this story using my own imagination. Please do not attempt to recreate it in any form. Additionally, if ideas in this work are similar to that of other writings, it is purely coincidental and I apologize deeply for any inconvenience. Please comment if you enjoy! Happy reading!!!Complete

Killer Magic Academy
You either become brilliant, or you get killed. When Alyssa was invited to a boarding school to learn magic, she was expecting something out of a Harry Potter book. She wasn't expecting to become a master of a power and learn how to survive and fight with it. She wasn't expecting that most of the people in the school would kill the people with too much power. She wasn't expecting to be one of the most powerful students to ever walk the school. Everyone at Aptitude Academy has power within, and everyone in the school will either become brilliant, or be killed by the other students. Alyssa thought she was signing up to learn to help the world, but she has to master her power quickly, before the people who already have mastered their powers come after her. Soon, that becomes the least of her problems. There's a prophecy that everyone seems convinced that it's about her, a fight club that she accidentally signed up for, the dragon that lives in the arena, and the threat that terrifies the entire school. There's only one person who can stop the threat before it's too late - the subject of the prophecy. Unfortunately for Alyssa, no one knows how to stop the threat or what exactly it is. Despite the fact everyone seems to thing the savior is Alyssa, no one knows for sure, and one false attempt will destroy everything Aptitude Academy has ever known. You become brilliant or you get killed, or maybe both. Cover by: @Ari_forevComplete
