Hunger Games
This is a Hunger Games Alternate Universe fanfic. What if Prim hadn't had a sister to volunteer in her place? Suppose instead of Katniss, she'd had a brother? If you're appalled by the idea of a Hunger Games without Katniss, read no further. But otherwise, consider how tragic this would have been. Given that no other girl wanted to volunteer in Prim's place, there would have been no way for her brother to keep her out of the arena. He could do one thing. He could volunteer in Peeta's place, to protect her. But since there can be only one winner, he promises the people of District 12 that he will give his own life to make sure Primrose comes home alive. How would that change the events of the 74th Hunger Games? I changed a few things around. The Everdeens' TV has had a major upgrade, so to speak, from the generosity of the Capitol. Suzanne Collins depicted Panem as a religionless society, but I put the churches back in. Prim is a christian but her brother is not. This story does not have a religious theme. I am not a Christian myself (Jewish), but since Christianity is the most common religion throughout North America, it would make sense it would survive in Panem. Rated Mature for obscene or profane language. Sexual intercourse is mentioned but not described in any detail.

In what used to be North America, the proud country of Panem now stands. The rulers from the Capitol hold a televised survival competition in which one male and one female between the ages of twelve and eighteen are reaped to fight to to death in an arena designed to be as deadly as the tributes, themselves. This game is forever known as The Hunger Games. Peeta Mellark, District Twelve's Baker's son, has been, madly in love with his companion, Katniss Everdeen, since the small age of five. Ever since tragedy gave him enough courage to ask for her hand, the unspeakable happens. Katniss's little sister, Primrose, is reaped for the death sentence. Peeta watches helplessly as his lover volunteers to take her place in the Games. Soon after, Peeta is reaped himself. He knows that only one will come out alive: someone smart, determined, and strong enough. And it would be his love. It had to be. This is my verson of The Hunger Games, originally writen by Suzanne Collins.
