"Poor Annie Cresta..."

"It's the poor mad girl from district four..."

"They say her time in the Hunger Games drove her over the edge..."

Just like anyone who's managed to make it out of the Hunger Games alive, Annie Cresta has nightmares. It's not easy to forget being tortured and starved and forced to kill other people to survive. Her time in the arena scarred her, broke her, and every day, she keeps trying to pick up the pieces. 

Only the people who have been in the arena, borne witness to the bloodshed and horror firsthand can understand what it's like; all the victors have a slightly haunted look behind their eyes that speaks of memories they'd do anything to forget. Of course, that's made impossible when your victory in those games is all that people see in you. 

Finnick O'Dair, youngest ever winner of the Hunger Games, Capitol pretty boy, and sex symbol for all of Panem has nightmares too. He has nightmares about dying in a million different ways, nightmares about never being allowed to go back home to district four, but most of all, he has nightmares about losing her. He has nightmares about losing Annie, the only woman out there that he truly loves. 

Even though the odds are against them at every turn, they're lifelines for each other; no matter the cost, Finnick would never let Annie get hurt, and Annie would do anything to stay with Finnick. The only problem is that they can't have anything more than a secret romance, or else they would lose everything, including their lives. 

All of that changes in an instant though, with a handful of poisoned berries in the 74th Hunger Games. That simple act sets in motion a series of events that cannot be stopped, and it also poses a very important question for Annie and Finnick. How far would they go to be together forever, is there any price they wouldn't pay?Public Domain

Never In Your Favour by Alter_Odesta

I wanted to write a story with explicit scenes that worked perfectly well if you wanted to read it without them too. The love of Finnick Odair and Annie Cresta seemed so pure, so human, that I wanted to give them a fully fleshed put backstory, because let's face it, they deserve one. From their childhood, to Finnick's games, to his time in the Capitol, to Annie's games to the events of the actual series, this book has it all... and more! I will be returning to old chapters and fleshing them out as I see fit, as well as writing new ones. All explicit scenes will be handled tastefully in the regular chapters, similarly to Peeta and Katniss in mockingjay with the 'so after...'. The chapter after one of these moments will be an appropriately signed explicit scene, that won't add anything to the story that wasn't there already. So enjoy this story, but remember, in Panem, the odds are never in your favour...

Embers of Hope: The 69th Hunger Games by Aryk_Renglef

Brooke Langston, a determined and resourceful young woman, volunteers as tribute to spare a sickly little girl who holds a special place in her heart. Little does she anticipate that her closest friend, Ray Adhira, would also be chosen, forcing them to confront the brutal reality of the Games together. Bound by friendship and survival instinct, they navigate the treacherous arena, evading traps and deadly adversaries. As the tension mounts and the stakes grow ever higher, Brooke finds an unexpected ally in Finnick Odair, her charismatic and enigmatic mentor. Drawn to his strength and compassion amidst the chaos, Brooke and Finnick's bond deepens through shared challenges and moments of respite. In the dystopian world of Panem, where the Capitol exerts its control through the annual Hunger Games, tribute selection becomes a grim reality for the impoverished Districts. Amidst the ruthless 69th Hunger Games, where alliances are forged and shattered in the blink of an eye, two tributes from District 4 find themselves thrust into the deadly arena and must fight for their survival. TW: Heavy topics such as SA, prostitution, brutality, abuse, and murder.

Lovely Adilade by Marah7905

TW: abuse, fighting, violence, kissing Adilade Cruise The girl who survived the arena The girl who is responsible for HIS death The girl who was to young, to dumb to win The girl who wanted to be loved The girl who wished she didn't make it out The girl who was trapped and shunned never to be brought up The girl who was put back in The girl who survived the aren, again *************************************************** This is how I picture a sassy 12 year old in hunger games catching fire and Mocking Jay (The morphlings don't exist in this fantasy.) Adilade Cruise was a young girl from district six. She won the 73 annual Hunger Games. She won because the other tribute from six killed him self so she could win in peace. Little did she know that everyone now hates her. She's been living in a jail cell in the capitol and only eats once a week. Her life isn't very good. But maybe the Quartile Quell will change everything. ⚠️Disclaimers⚠️ This isn't 1000% accurate. One things don't happen exactly like they happen originally. So don't hate on me for not getting every detail. Thanks for reading my luvs❤️ P.S Finnick and Prim don't die:))

You Are My Sunshine // A Finnick Fanfic by A5_TheGlue_LoveNewt

When Reef, a young girl from District Four, thinks she'll make it through her last year of the reaping, finds that she was unsuccessful. She had been reaped for the 70th annual Hunger Games and must fight for her life in an arena against 23 other tributes from the other 12 districts. With the charming Finnick Odair as her mentor, she knows she has to fight, she has to live for her brother and herself. Reef also finds herself falling for her mentor, and maybe he sees something in her as well. But that is the least of her problems as she thinks hard about her strategies to win the games. With the arenas always changing, no matter how much she hates to be associated as one, Reef must think and train like a career if she truly wishes to win. That is, until a certain district reaches out for an alliance. If she survives the Hunger Games, will she be able to help Katniss in her efforts against the Capital? What will happen with her relationship with Finnick? Will everyone survive? May The Odds Be Ever In Your Favor //From Before Hunger Games to Mockingjay// (This is a Finnick fanfic that is based primarily on the movies, though some aspects will be from the books. Some plot points however, have been twisted to fit my own story line!) ---------------------- ---------------------- Disclaimer: I do not own the Hunger Games Franchise - all character rights and plot points (beside Reef, my own characters, and my own plot points) belong to Susan Collins

RAINFALL || Finnick Odair by libbvach

-Finnick Odair X OC- Book One |Slow burn| Ever since Finnick Odair won the 65th Hunger Games at age 14, District Four has not only been praising him for his skill, but also themselves for preparing him so well. In order to showcase the District's talent and strength, they selected a young protege to volunteer for the 67th Hunger Games. Disclaimer- I don't own The Hunger Games or the characters in the books. Obviously they're owned by Suzanne Collins. I only own the characters I created and the arena I designed. I will not take credit for anything Suzanne Collins came up with and published because it's all hers. I just wanted to make all of that clear. I'm just a big fan of the series and the movies. Warning: This is the hunger games, so there will be killing and death.

AMNESIAC || Finnick Odair by Alex_Novas

❝Who are you? Who 𝘢𝘮 I?❞ ✑✑✑✑ All tributes know when and how they get in the Arena. The Victor, however, never knows when or how they get out. Not until Claudius Templesmith announces their name and district to the entire nation. Once the tribute becomes a victor, they're taken out of the Arena. Only to eventually realise they never truly escaped. The nightmares, the cameras, the deals, nothing ever lets them forget. Their entire lives, they're reminded of what they did. The mask of luxury that covers their sleepless nights and destructive thoughts, is kept in place by the finest glue known to President Snow; a bit of hope mixed in the bowl of darkness and fear. There's but one problem with that mask. For it to work, the victor must have two essential things; haunting vivid memories and loved ones they would trade their lives to protect. One without the other is to no use. So when Olive Navin Cresta survives the 69th Hunger Games with no recollection of her time in the Arena, the mask gets destroyed before it's even placed. Please, don't forget, the odds are never in our favour. ✑✑✑✑✑✑✑✑✑ 𝕒𝕞𝕟𝕖𝕤𝕚𝕒𝕔 /𝕒𝕞ˈ𝕟𝕚ː𝕫ɪ𝕒𝕜/ 𝕟𝕠𝕦𝕟, '𝕒 𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕠𝕟 𝕖𝕩𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕟𝕔𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕒 𝕡𝕒𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕒𝕝 𝕠𝕣 𝕥𝕠𝕥𝕒𝕝 𝕝𝕠𝕤𝕤 𝕠𝕗 𝕞𝕖𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕪.' ✑✑✑✑✑✑✑✑✑ I DO NOT OWN THE HUNGER GAMES I only own my OC and part of her family.
