Summary
Clove Kentwell has always known what she wanted, like a flame burning way too bright to ignore. In District 2, becoming a tribute isn’t luck, but something earned, and the Academy is where it all begins: a brutal world of training, rivalries, and endless pressure to prove yourself. She has trained hard, fought harder, and has nothing left to lose. Cato Hadley stands on the other side, with everything to lose, a future wrapped in expectations, and a tension with Clove that threatens to ignite at any moment. With the 74th Hunger Games closing in, survival isn’t just about skill but about how much you’re willing to risk.
A 74th Hunger Games Prequel from the District 2 tributes

Summary
Cato comes home as the Victor of the 74th Hunger Games to a pregnant girlfriend and a bright future ahead of him.
It seems perfect, really. Like the universe has conspired to give him a happy ever after.
But there's no book epilogue in real life, no 'Happily Ever After'. You just keep living.At the end of "The Devil in the Marble" we had a very clean cut story, following the canon we watched and read in The Hunger Games, but a question has always been in my head since I finished writing it:
What would happen if Cato had survived and come home?(Each chapter comes with its own summary)

He's told that if he proves himself that he can be a hero.
There's nothing more that Cato wants than to be a hero and make other people happy. But he's still scared to obey when he realized what they want him to do.

Summary
"Living a lie isn't the best option, but when it's the only thing I can do to survive, when it's my only choice, what else can I do?"
In which Satin Nicholo strives to survive even when the odds are stacked against her because she knows that the Gamemakers are going to make her life particularly challenging; having a knack for knowing her weaknesses before she's even aware of them. Playing a role, making unthinkable sacrifices and living a lie.
It's the price she has to pay for following in the footsteps of her siblings.

Summary
Party lights swirled around Katniss’s dazed form as she stared up at the ceiling, trying to make sense of where she was and whose hands were grabbing her. Someone tugged her arm over and put their cigarette out on her palm. She tried to protest, to say something, but all that came out was unintelligible whimpering.
Shrill laughter filled her ears as someone pulled her onto their lap, pouring champagne down her throat despite her inability to swallow. Then she was pushed down, her head between her knees as she tried to choke the alcohol out of her mouth and onto the couch.
“Such a good girl.”

Summary
“Cato!” Katniss hissed as she arrived at the feast, only to see him holding her backpack. “Get your hands off my backpack!”
He smirked before turning to run. “Catch me if you can, sweetheart.”
“Cato!” She ran after him for nearly half an hour before her legs gave out under her and she fell flat on her face. Cold mud found its way into her mouth and hair, embedding itself in the fabric of her clothes. Snickering came from above her as Cato crouched down. “Giving up already?”
“Gimme that,” she choked as she spat out mud, reaching up to grab the bag as he moved it just out of reach.
“Nope!” He pulled her head up by the hair. “I win.”

Summary
"From now on, two victors may be crowned if both originate from the same district..."
For years, Cato and Clove had trained together, fought together, and laughed together. Unfortunately, they'd also volunteered together. Now, they were going to win together.
(It's a Clato one-shot. You should read it!)

Summary
It's all a lie.
And it's all too late as he's surrounded by vicious growls and strong jaws, trying to tear him apart as his strength has faltered.
It's all too late as hours of torture follow, and he's incapable of doing anything.

Summary
First love is always a little foolish; you look at the person by your side and plan a life with them with the ease a child has at imagining a fairytale. It’s feverish and impatience, with new experiences and new feelings, and a comfort one has never felt before.
After being asked to pose for a statue months before the 74th Hunger Games, Cato falls in love with its beautiful and odd sculptor.Series

Summary
I vow not to fight anymore, if we survive the Great War.
The question stands: How would the presence of surviving, young Career Victors change the trajectory of the quell and the subsequent rebellion? How would the involvement of the most loyal district's best and youngest shift the tides of a revolution?
Follows Clove and Cato through exactly that. Their independent Hunger Games wins, the subsequent quell, and a war they never intended to become apart of.
TL;DR: The original career pack (Glimmer, Marvel, Cato, and Clove), win separately in games prior to the 74th, and their lives change drastically as a result. Clato centric.
