The Hunger Games: Choose Your Own Adventure

Chapter 1: How It Works

Chapter Text

Welcome to Choose Your Own Adventure!

What you'll need:

- a pen

- paper

- a 20 sided dice (or d20). Online simulator here: https://rolladie.net/roll-a-d20-die

How it works:

- You'll play a character with stats (see Choose Your Character)

- At the end of each page, you'll be given a decision.

E.g. A pack of mutts is running towards you. Your options are:

a) climb a tree

b) try to outrun them

c) stand and fight them.

Each choice will have a different page number you'll need to go to, and the story will continue from there, (unless your character dies in which case you'll have to come back to the beginning!)

- Some choices depend on luck and how good your character is.

E.g. In the choice above, Axel decides to climb a tree. He rolls a 12 on the die, and has a stat of +3 for strength, so with a score of 15 he manages to climb it.

Please bear in mind that this is the Hunger Games so there are plenty of ways of it to end...not so well...for your character. Trigger warnings: blood, starvation, freezing, claustrophobia, heights, falling

Let me know if there are any mistakes with page numbers and I'll try and correct them asap!

Hope this all makes sense. Please let me know if it doesn't, and if you're ready, move on to Choose Your Character!

Each character has six stats:

Strength- How strong they are

Dexterity- How quick they are on their feet

Constitution- How healthy they are

Intelligence- How intelligent they are

Wisdom- How much world experience they have

As you rise up into the arena, you instantly feel cold. Harsh sunlight shines down on you, making it hard to see. But as you squint, you see that all around you is ice with no vegetation in sight. You can make out five tributes to your left and four to your right, but the rest are shielded from view by the large Cornucopia that looms a hundred metres away from you. Scattered on the ground, are various supplies.

What do you do?

a) Stay on your platform- Go to Page 4

b) Run- Go to Page 5

c) Grab something and then run- Go to Page 6

d) Head straight for the Cornucopia- Go to Page 7

Chapter 5: Page 2

Chapter Text

You are a tribute from District Nine and you clutch your token nervously as you rise up in the tube. You blink as sunlight greets you and you scan your surroundings quickly. You, the other tributes and the Cornucopia are on hard flat ground. In front of you, there's a steep downward slope into a field of what seems to be tall grass and grain. To one side, there is a lake, and there is a forest stretching out on either side and behind you.

That's right, you're in the 74th Hunger Games! Any guesses who your opponents are?

Your actions will change the course of the Games. What would you like to do?

Happy birthday to my sister – at long last I’ve done Arena Three! Hope you like it :-)

TW: blood, descriptions of injury, explosions

For this arena, you can choose to be a tribute of District Nine, District Eleven, or District Twelve.

You also get to spend some time in training to meet the other tributes and learn some new skills!

Choose three skills you’d like out of the following:

Foraging- Whenever you are searching for food, the score you need to beat is reduced by 2

Martial Arts – whenever you are in combat and do not have a weapon, the score you need to beat is reduced by 2

Climbing – whenever you need to climb, the score you need to beat is reduced by 2

Camouflage- whenever you need to hide, the score you need to beat is reduced by 3

Weapons training (sword, archery, knife, spear, axe)- Choose a weapon. Whenever you have that weapon in the arena and are in combat, the score you need to beat is reduced by 3

Ropes and snares- Whenever you need to build a trap or knot something, the score you need to beat is reduced by 2

Endurance – You spend some time on the treadmills and increase your speed. Whenever you need to run, the score you need to beat is reduced by 3

Campfire – Whenever you need to build a fire or cook some food, the score you need to beat is reduced by 2

Berry identification – Whenever you need to see if a berry is safe, the score you need to beat is reduced by 2

You spend some time at the various stations, and watch the other tributes. Some catch your eye:

From the Career Pack, you notice the girl from District 2. She’s tall and very muscular with long plaited blond hair. She seems very good with a sword. You also notice the girl from District Four. She is tanned with short dark hair and seems pretty vicious with an axe! She notices you looking and winks at you.

The boy from District Five spends all his time climbing, increasingly becoming faster and faster. He has long wavy dark hair, which he continuously brushes out of his eyes, and brown skin.

On the second day, there is an explosion over at the fireplace, and you see the girl from District Six grinning from ear to ear. You see her talking animatedly to the pair from District Three.

Is there anyone you’d like to approach to ally with?

Remain where you are – Stay on this page

The District Four girl – Page 256

The District Five boy – Page 257

The District Six girl and the District 3 pair – Page 258

If you stayed on this page:

You busy yourself with the skill that you have chosen to learn. Suddenly, out of the corner of your eye, a figure suddenly approaches you.

“Hi!” You turn and see that it’s the girl from District Ten. She has dark skin, with shoulder-length plaited dark hair, and currently a beaming smile, “I’m Meadow, nice to meet you.”

“Uh-”

“Would you like to ally with us?” She blurts out.

“Whose we?” You ask.

She gestures, and you see that standing awkwardly some metres behind her is the girl from District Seven, the boy from District Seven, the boy from District Eight, and the boy from District Ten.

“We’re the Challengers. And we’re creating an alliance to counter the Career pack,” She grins, “Are you in?”

Stay on your own – Stay on this page

Join Meadow and her group – Go to Page 259

If you stayed on this page:

“Sorry, not interested,” You say.

“Ah, that’s a shame,” She smiles, and claps you on your shoulder, “Remember you’re free to join if you ever change your mind in the arena!”

She races back to the others, and over the next two days, you see her approach other tributes. No one else joins her alliance.

Training is completed, and you go to show the Gamemakers what you’ve learnt!

If you’re showing them a weapons skill, roll and add your Strength or Dexterity. If you’re showing them something to do with ropes or climbing, roll and add your Dexterity. If you’re showing them survival skills, roll and add your Wisdom.

11-15 – It went well- the audience liked your interview!

16 or higher – Nicely done! You’re a tribute to watch!

It’s time for the Arena!

The countdown ends sooner than you're expecting, and you stay on your platform unable to move- you need time to think!

Unfortunately, time is not on your side. Tributes have somehow reached weapons with alarming speed, and you just standing there makes you an easy target. An arrow hits you in the chest and you crumple to the ground.

You died! Head back to Choose Your Character and see how things might have turned out differently!

Chapter 8: Page 5

Chapter Text

You choose to run without any supplies. Racing away from the Cornucopia and slipping across the ice and snow, you manage to get a head start before the other tributes realise you've gone.

You hunt around for shelter but the Game-makers have been extra cruel this year and, although you do your best, there really is nothing. As night sets in, you have no choice but to stay in the snow. Without any supplies, it's impossible to survive in these temperatures...

Sorry, you died! Head back to Choose Your Character and see how things might have turned out differently!

You manage to race forward and grab a backpack. Unfortunately, another tribute has spotted you, and somehow they've already got a knife. As they charge towards you, you've only got seconds to try and roll out the way.

...You're heading straight for the Cornucopia? You sure? Ok!

You dodge out of the way of deadly weapons, and manage to grab a knife and some food. You spot a backpack and race towards it. A knife hits you in the leg but you manage to grab it and hoist it onto your back. You suddenly realise that it's gone deadly quiet, and looking up, you see that it's only you and the Career Pack at the Cornucopia. The other tributes have either run or are already dead.

The Careers stare at you, and reach for their weapons...

What do you want to do? You've got some options!

a) Run. Roll and add your Dexterity stat to see if you react quicker than they do!

As you roll, the knife cuts into your arm. But you manage to escape and run as fast as you can away from the Cornucopia! Inside the backpack is a sleeping bag, a matchbox, some wood, a woolly hat and some crackers.

As night falls, you look up into the sky and see that twelve tributes have died at the Cornucopia. Four Careers are still alive. You put on the hat and zip yourself up into the sleeping bag, but even with these extra supplies, it's still freezing and you're worried that you might not make it until morning.

Congratulations, you escape completely unharmed! You run as fast as you can away from the Cornucopia. When you feel that you are safe, you open the backpack. Inside the backpack is a sleeping bag, a matchbox, some wood, a hat and some crackers.

As night falls, you look up into the sky and see that twelve tributes have died at the Cornucopia. Four Careers are still alive. You look for cover, but find nothing but snow and ice, and so you are forced to stay out in the open.

Congratulations, you have managed to convince the them! The Careers let you join them, and as you set up the tents around the Cornucopia, you get to chat to them. Including you, there are five Careers remaining. The two District Four tributes - Nixie and Morgan- seem to have been close before the Games, and although, the odds have definitely not in their favour, they are trying to make the best out of a bad situation.

The other two Careers who are alive are Saffron, from District One, and Minerva, from District Two. Both seem to be vying for leadership, but for now, are content to just bicker rather than full on argue.

You help set up a roaring fire to keep yourselves warm, and as night sets in, you offer to take the first watch. In the sky, twelve tributes are shown, and you ready your weapon as you gaze into the icy landscape.

How much are you paying attention to your surroundings?

Wow, not only have the Careers let you join them, but your argument is so convincing that they've let you become their leader!

The other two Careers who are alive are Saffron, from District One, and Minerva, from District Two. It seemed that previously they had been arguing over who should be leader, but with you in charge, they seem content to follow you, and there less tension in the air!

You're good, but the Careers are better! You manage to stab one of them, before the others are upon you...

Chapter 21: Page 18

Chapter Text

The Careers may have trained their whole lives for this moment, but with a burst of adrenaline, you are somehow stronger and faster. Ducking and weaving, with your knife moving at lightning speed, you shove the Careers into each other and stab them one after another, and...

...you kill them all?!

Yeah, no one is entirely sure how that happened. Least of all you. But here you are!

Sponsors rain down, leaving you with plenty of resources alongside all the stuff at the Cornucopia. Sixteen canons fire, leaving eight tributes left, including you.

As night sets in, what do you want to do?

a) Go and hunt down the other tributes - Go to Page 23

Thankfully you're paying attention, and you see another tribute sneaking up towards your camp with a knife! You call for the others, and you and the other Careers manage to overcome and kill her.

The rest of the night passes peacefully, and in the morning you decide to hunt down the remaining tributes. Just as you are about to set off, the ground suddenly rumbles, and the entire arena begins to split into two.

You decide to hunt for other tributes. The arena is a frozen open wasteland, and it isn't long before you spot smoke. Making your way over, you see a tiny figure huddled shivering by a small fire. You recognise her to be the twelve year old tribute from District 10. She spots you, but is too cold to react, and is completely at your mercy as you make your way over...

You try and make some traps but it soon becomes pretty obvious that you have absolutely no clue what you're doing. You set up your tent, and make a nice roaring fire to keep yourself warm, whilst you watch out for intruders.

Nice, your traps are set and looking good!

You build yourself a fire to keep warm, set up your tent. As you hunker down for the night, you see that there are sixteen tributes in the sky.

You are woken up a couple of hours in by the sound of a cannon, and as your stumble out of your tent, you see that a tribute as fallen prey to one of your nastier looking traps.

You fall back asleep and wake at dawn with no more surprises. But as you are getting ready to begin the day, the ground rumbles, and suddenly the entire arena splits in two!

You're fast, and with your foot, send sparks from the fire flying at them. You make a run for it, but in an arena that's flat and with just snow and ice, there's nowhere for you to hide. It isn't long before they reach you...

As a massive crack divides up the whole arena, you feel yourself slipping and try to leap to safety. You just fast enough to make it onto one of the halves, but Nixie and Morgan aren't fast enough and you watch them fall into the darkness. Seconds later, their cannons fire. Off into the distance, you hear another cannon.

The ground stops moving, and you, Saffron and Minerva catch your breath. The rest of the day, you try and hunt for the remaining tributes, but the five remaining are either very good at hiding or on the other half of the arena and you don't find them.

As night falls, you see the dead in the sky- Nixie, Morgan, and a tribute from District Three who must have also fallen into the chasm.

You set up a fire, and decide to cook to cheer up everyone's spirits.

...How good are you at cooking?

"I don't want to hurt you." You promise, "Do you want to be allies?"

The girl's brown eyes are wary as she looks at you, scared, but nods her head. You lead her back to the Cornucopia where you and her sets up tents and a roaring fire.

The girl-whose name is Mazie- is so grateful that she hugs you, and goes into one of the tents to curl up, nice and warm.

You jump just in time and manage to avoid the massive chasm. A cannon fires as you land on your feet-someone else wasn't so lucky!

You catch your breath, and then spend the rest of the day hunting for other tributes. But the remaining five are either very good at hiding or are on the other half of the arena.

You settle down for the night, and are awoken at dawn by the sound of a cannon firing. And then another.

You leap up, wide and awake and grab your weapon. For some minutes, you see nothing, and then you see something moving quickly across the snow and ice. As the white blobs come into view, your eyes widen- out of fear but also because of the sheer lack of imagination of the Gamemakers. Coming towards you are two polar bears- each with eight legs!

This night is somehow even colder than the last. Can you survive?

The rest of the night passes peacefully, and in the morning you decide to hunt down the remaining tributes. Just as you are about to set off, the ground suddenly rumbles, and the entire arena begins to split into two.

Roll and add Dexterity to see how fast you react!

You manage to jump and land safely as the chasm splits the arena into two. You hear the sound of a cannon as you land- someone else hasn't been so lucky. You spend the rest of the day hunting for tributes but the remaining four are either very good at hiding or are on the other half of the arena.

As night falls, you build a fire and do your best to stay awake, but end up falling asleep. You are awoken at dawn by the sound of a cannon firing. And then another.

You leap up, wide and awake and grab your weapons. For some minutes, you see nothing, and then you see something moving quickly across the snow and ice. As the white blobs come into view, your eyes widen- out of fear but also because of the sheer lack of imagination of the Gamemakers. Coming towards you are two polar bears- each with eight legs!

You turn and run but the polar bears are so much faster, especially with their eight legs...which works somehow, I guess...

They knock you down and kill you.

Sorry, these mutts are killers, and on your own, you can barely fight one, let alone two! You barely get an attack in before they knock you down and kill you.

You grab a stick and light it into the embers of the fire beside you. You wave it around frantically and shout as the mutts approach. You hear one cannon fire, and then another. Somewhere out there in these arena, these mutts have killed two more tributes.

On your own, you know you would have no chance of surviving fighting them. But with Saffron and Minerva at your side, you feel more confident.

As the three of you branch out and ready to attack them, you hear cannons fire as somewhere out in the arena the remaining tributes are killed by these mutts. You and Minerva yell and charge at one of the mutts. It strikes down Minerva with its' paw. You strike and kill it in the back, before running to help Saffron.

It falls to the ground dead, and as you and Saffron stare at each other, a terrible realisation occurs to you both- you are the only tributes remaining.

The three of you pick up sticks and put them into the embers of your campfire. Using the fire, you're able to beat back the polar bears, who stand at a distance, wary. Whilst you buy time, you hear cannons fire- somewhere in the arena, the mutts are killing the other tributes.

After some time, more of the mutts suddenly appear and surround the three of you. As you, Saffron and Minerva stare at each other, you realise why- you are the only three tributes left.

"Do you want to be allies?" You ask.

The tribute pauses, dagger in hand, and looking at you, before glancing at the weapon in your hands. With you spotting them, it's clear that she doesn't like her chances of taking you on alone.

With a nod, she lowers her weapon, and you lead her back to your camp. She's quiet, and the two of you sit in silence awkwardly as you both guard.

Eventually, she opens up and reveals that her name is Tasmin. She doesn't really like spending time with people, even at home, as she once had a bad experience with a friendship group, but since this is a life-and-death situation, she's willing to try being allies.

She's blunt, but at least she's not trying to lie to you. If she thinks you'll betray her, she'll kill you, and when it gets to the final five, she will go off on her own. You nod and tell her that you understand.

As dawn comes, Mazie crawls out of the tent and stops short when she sees Tasmin. Tasmin surveys her coolly whilst Mazie looks at her warily, and you explain that the three of you are now allies. Mazie looks a bit upset that she wasn't asked about this but she nods.

Suddenly the ground rumbles and you look round in shock to see that the entire arena is splitting in two. As cracks form where you are standing, you all jump to try and make it to the other side. You are slow reacting, and almost fall into the massive chasm that is forming, but Tasmin and Mazie pull you to safety. As you get to safety, you hear two canons. Others weren't so lucky. Other than you, there are now five tributes remaining.

The three of you spend the rest of the day making your camp a comfortable space, cooking and searching for other tributes, but you don't see anyone.

You agree to take watches as night falls, but you are so tired that you doze off slightly on your shift. You are jolted awake by the sound of a cannon. You grab a weapon and scan around, whilst Tasmin and Mazie climb out of the tents to see what's going on.

For some minutes, you see nothing, and then you see something moving quickly across the snow and ice. As the white blobs come into view, your eyes widen- out of fear but also because of the sheer lack of imagination of the Gamemakers. Coming towards you are two polar bears- each with eight legs!

Saffron wastes no time in racing at you, but you are faster. Adrenaline courses through your veins, and you overcome her, knocking her to the ground and plunging your blade downwards.

Congratulations! You won...but at what cost? Head back to Choose Your Character and see how things could have gone differently...

The three of you are good, and as you work together, it looks as though things are going well. But then one of the mutts catches you on your left leg, and you fall to the ground. The others are upon you in seconds...

You've already got one ally. You don't need another. You kill the tribute in a flash, and her canon wakes up Mazie. She crawls out of her tent, and gasps when she's sees the dead girl and the bloodied knife in your hand.

You explain that it was for the best. She frowns but before she can reply, the ground suddenly rumbles and the entire arena starts to split in half! You leap to safety. Mazie isn't so fast, but you manage to catch her and pull her to safety. You hear a canon fire- someone else wasn't so lucky.

As day comes, you double check the traps and start making a fire and cooking some food. You see Mazie watching you cautiously. You may have saved her life, but does she trust you yet?

Roll a d20 and add your Intelligence.

1-10: Of course she does!

11 or above: She's afraid, and is worried that you may kill her like you did with the other tribute. But she knows that she has better chances of survival staying with you than out in the cold on her own.

As night comes, you and Mazie settle down to keep watch. As it approaches midnight, you hear a canon fire. Getting to your feet, you grab your weapon and scan the surroundings.

For some minutes, you see nothing, and then you see something moving quickly across the snow and ice. As the white blobs come into view, your eyes widen- out of fear but also because of the sheer lack of imagination of the Gamemakers. Coming towards you are two polar bears- each with eight legs!

The three of you turn and run, in blind panic. You're faster than Mazie and Tasmin, and pure instincts kick in as you speed away. It's only then that you remember that you are allies, but you hear canons fire, and as you turn around, you see the Mazie and Tasmin have fallen to the ground dead.

Suddenly, the mutts sink into the ground, disappearing. There's a fanfare, and you stand, shocked, as you are declared Victor.

Congratulations!!...I guess?

Chapter 63: Page 60

Chapter Text

You nod to each other, expressions fierce, and as one, you charge at the mutts. You are a better fighter and more experienced than your allies, and though you try and help Mazie and Tasmin as you duck and dive and stab, you are unable to save them from the polar bears.

Cannons fire in rapid succession, and you realise that all other tributes are dead. The mutts shoot you a baleful look, and disappear into the ground. You sink to the ground, staring at the bodies of Mazie and Tasmin, and a fanfare begins to play. You are the Victor.

Congratulations!

Chapter 64: Page 61

Chapter Text

The three of you pick up some of your wood lying by your campfire. Lighting it on fire, you wave it at the mutts. They growl but stay back. A canon fires, and suddenly more mutts appear, surrounding you all.

As the three of you stare at each other in horror, you realise that you are the only tributes left.

What do you do?

Congratulations!

The three of you nod, and as one, attack each other in the most climatic and emotional fight that the Capitol audience has witnessed! Somehow you overcome Saffron and then Minerva, and their canons fire as they hit the ground. A fanfare plays, declaring you the Victor!

You run, leaving Mazie far behind, and as canons fire, you suddenly hear that the rasping breaths of the mutts have disappeared. In the silence, trumpets play a fanfare instead, declaring you the Victor!

"Hey," You smile. Tasmin and Mazie look at you, scared but determined, "It's going to be okay."

You press your weapon into Mazie's hand, who's startled but then she realises what you're about to do.

"No!" She shouts. Tasmin tries to grab for you as you walk towards the Mutts, but it's too late. You've made your choice. You send them one last smile, and then the Mutts are upon you...

You died. Tasmin and Mazie stand shocked, but they decide that their best chance is to try and fight the Mutts and hope for the best. Tasmin blows embers from the fire towards the Mutts, stunning them and the two of them yell war cries as they attack. Mazie dies and Tasmin is declared the Victor.

Chapter 69: Page 66

Chapter Text

The two of them stare in horror as you turn on them. Tasmin reacts first, pushing Mazie behind her as she charges at you. But you have far more experience and skill. After all, it was you who single-handedly killed the Careers, the best of the best. You cut down Tasmin with ease, and then stab Mazie.

The mutts sink into the ground, and the air is filled with the sound of a fanfare, declaring you Victor.

Congratulations, you won! ...But at what cost?

Chapter 70: Page 67

Chapter Text

You charge at the mutts, bellowing a war cry, who seem a bit taken aback but run towards you, growling. There's the sound of canons, and you turn, expecting Mazie to somehow to be dead, but she's running away, feet moving quickly across the icy snow.

You barely have time to react before the mutts are upon you...

Betrayal! With you and the other tributes dead, Mazie is Victor! Head back to Choose Your Character to see how things might have turned out differently.

Chapter 71: Page 68

Chapter Text

The two of you pick up sticks and set them alight using your campfire. You yell and wave them, keeping them at bay for now. More cannons fire, and suddenly more mutts appear surrounding you. As you and Mazie glance at each other, you realise that you are the only other tributes left.

You smile and Mazie watches with wide eyes as you place your touch gently into her free hand, (...because she didn't pick up a weapon for some reason...).

"Don't!" She shouts as you walk away, suddenly realising what you are doing. The mutts are upon you in seconds...

You died, but Mazie is declared the youngest Victor to ever win the Hunger Games!

Chapter 73: Page 70

Chapter Text

You turn towards Mazie, the firelight reflecting off the weapon in your hand. She stares up at you, scared, and then, realising what you are about to do, she runs. The mutts knock her to the ground and her canon fires. They give you one last menacing growl, and then sink into the ground, vanishing. Trumpets play a fanfare and you are declared Victor.

Congratulations!

You sprint into the tall grasses and grain. It's hard to move fast but at least it gives you good cover as you continue to run downhill away from the Cornucopia. You slow when you think you've gone far enough, and stop when you hear the cannons.

The sound eleven times. Eleven people dead.

As night comes, you try and find a safe place to hide. The eleven dead are shown in the sky, your district partner included.

The tall grasses provide some shelter but you're hungry and cold, and you can't stop your teeth from shattering. You hear footsteps coming your way, and the grasses part to reveal the tall figure of the District 11 boy making his way towards you.

You find a bush on the edge of the forest and settle in there. Eventually the shouts from the Cornucopia dies down, and you hear the sounds of cannons.

Here’s a question for you: Did Katniss die at the Cornucopia?

Yes – Stay on this page

No – Go to Page 95

If you stayed on this page:

You hear twelve cannons, and in the sky, you see: the District 3 girl, the District 4 boy, the District 5 boy, the District 6 and 7 tributes, the boy from District 8, the other tribute from District 9, the District 10 girl and the District 12 pair.

That night, another cannon fires, and you huddle in your bush, trying to keep warm.

Unable to sleep, you track the progress of the moon across the sky. As dawn approaches, footsteps awake you. Peeking through the thicket, you see the District One girl walk past.

She whispers something, and suddenly she is joined by the District Five girl. You frown, watching the muted conversation. Instead of killing the District Five girl, the District One girl smiles, and after some time, she heads back towards the Cornucopia.

The next day, as you search for food, you hear two more cannons. As night falls, the boy from One and the boy from Eleven’s faces are shown in the sky. You hide in your bush, and some time later, the District One girl appears again.

“It’s time,” She says to the District Five girl.

They exchange something, and the District One girl turns to leave.

“Glimmer,” The District Five girl catches her on the arm, “Be careful.”

Glimmer tosses her head and smirks, “You know me, Finch. Always am.”

The District One girl turns back to the Cornucopia. Minutes later, you hear the firing of several cannons in rapid succession.

You watch as the Glimmer returns, a sword in her hand.

“It’s done,” She murmurs.

Finch smiles tightly, “Then I guess this is where we part ways.” She extends a hand to Glimmer, “Best of luck?”

Glimmer studies her, and then drops her sword, wrapping Finch in a hug, “Take care, Finch.”

“You too, Princess.” Finch smirks, “I better not see your ugly face in the night sky.”

“Likewise,” Glimmer smiles. She watches as Finch walks away and then picks up the sword.

She sighs heavily, and then turns towards your bush, “I can see you, you know. You might as well come out.”

You don’t move, hoping she’s talking about someone else. But then Glimmer says your name, and you know you have no other option.

“How do you know my name?” You ask as you step out of the hedge, “And how long have you known I was here?”

Glimmer shrugs, “I’m more observant than I look,” She raises her sword, “I’m sorry, but there’s really not that many of us left now.”

With a start, you realise that with the Careers gone, there’s only the two of you, Finch, the District 10 boy and the District 11 girl.

“So you’ve come to kill me first, huh?”

“No hard feelings,” Glimmer smiles sadly.

You stand together and watch as the hovercrafts come to collect the bodies.

“We’ve got five tents,” Cato says, “That should be plenty.”

“We have lots of food and weapons, too,” Clove notes, “Let’s put them in the middle and have our tents around them, facing outwards. It’ll make it easier to guard.”

“Good idea, Clover,” Cato smiles. You see Glimmer scowl as you watch Clove nudge Cato, a smirk toying at her lips.

Then Cato frowns, “Hold on. There’s someone over there.”

He motions towards the Cornucopia, and gestures for you to follow him as he creeps around the golden base. The rest of you ready your weapons, as Cato holds up a hand for us to stop, and leaps around.

There’s a startled cry, and then Cato pulls out a figure. It’s the District Four boy, whimpering.

“Murdoch!” Marina moves forward, “Let him go Cato. He’s with us.”

Cato gazes at the struggling boy coldly, “When was that agreed?”

He swiftly plunges his sword into the boy’s chest, and slams him against the Cornucopia. Murdoch cries abruptly cut off. There’s a stunned silence, and Marvel doubles over. Marina screams and races towards Cato with her own sword.

Their swords meet with a resounding clang. He’s stronger and presses his sword down towards her head. She whirls away and her sword arcs towards his back, but he turns and catches it just in time. She dances away again, steps lithe and quick, before darting forward again.

“Cato, watch out!” Clove yells.

Cato twists just in time, and sends Marina’s sword flying from her hand. With his spare hand, he pushes her, sending her tumbling to the ground, and presses the point of his sword against her throat.

For a horrifying moment, you think he’s going to drive the blade downwards, but then he retracts his sword.

“Not bad, Four.” He says coolly.

She scrambles to her feet, weaponless aside from her hands balled into fists.

“You aren’t going to kill me?” She taunts.

“Not this time. You’re pretty good,” He turns his back casually on her, and speaks to the rest of you, “Let’s get the tents organised.”

Marina stands breathing heavily, hate blazing in her eyes, as the rest of you move to carry out Cato’s orders. As you sort through the food and the weapons, and get the tents set up, cannons start to sound. You pause to count them. Ten people dead.

As you make conversation, you suddenly all hear a branch snap. Quickly, you ready your weapon as do the other Careers.

You see the District 12 boy step out from behind a tree with his hands raised.

“It’s Lover Boy,” Marvel scoffs.

Cato takes up the nickname, "What do you want, Lover Boy?"

Peeta steps forward nervously, "I want to join you."

"Why do you think we'll accept you? " laughs Glimmer in disbelief, but Cato shushes her.

"We need fighters in this alliance. Fight me and prove your worth Lover Boy, "he says, whilst Clove tosses Peeta a knife which he barely catches.

Cato twirls his sword dramatically and the rest of you give them space. Peeta steps forward nervously, but as Cato swings his sword towards his hand, Peeta deflects it, almost as a reflex. Cato swipes again, and again Peeta blocks.

Eventually though, the inevitable happens, and Cato overpowers Peeta with skill this time rather than strength. He forces Peeta to the ground and knocks the knife out of his hand. Just like he did to Marina, he presses the sword against his throat.

"If I spare your life, do you promise to help us find Katniss Everdeen and kill her?"

Peeta doesn't reply at first but as Cato presses the sword deeper, he sees he's left with no choice and whispers, "yes."

Cato takes the sword off his throat, "Say that again, louder, so the audience can hear."

"I promise I will help you find Katniss, "says Peeta loudly, though he's shaking like a leaf.

"And?" prompts Cato.

"And I'll help you kill her. "

"Right, you're in. You can keep the knife."

That night, Marina stays behind at the Cornucopia, as the rest of you go and search for tributes to kill. Eventually, Glimmer spots some smoke and you find the District Eight girl beside a campfire.

The Careers kill her, and you all head back to your base.

Back at your camp, Marina isn’t alone. Alvis, the boy from District 3 is standing beside her, fiddling with a piece of metal whilst energetically nodding. As Marina sees you approach, he darts behind her.

“Everyone, I’d like you to meet Alvis.”

She pushes the dark-haired boy out to stand beside her, but the kid shrinks back to his hiding place as Cato stalks towards them both.

“Found another weakling to replace your District partner?” Cato sneers.

She ignores him, instead looking at Clove, “He knows a way to protect our food.”

Alvis pokes his head out from behind her, “With mines.”

“Explain,” Cato growls.

And so Alvis does. The mines can be deactivated and placed under your food, and then re-activated so that if anyone tries to take them, it will be blown to bits. They’ll be safe routes to the food, and he’ll deactivate and activate the mines in different patterns each day so that no intruders can be sure of a safe route.

Clove and Glimmer look unhappy, but Cato accepts him into the group.

You share a tent with Marina and try and get some sleep the rest of the night.

You wake to hear noises outside your tent. Your tent flap is open. Looking outside, you see Marina gripping her sword tightly and sneaking towards Cato’s tent.

She’s planning on getting revenge for him killing her district partner.

You dart out of your tent, and grip Marina before she can move anymore towards Cato’s tent, “You can’t! He’s our ally!”

“He killed Murdoch!” Marina hisses.

You struggle with Marina, and in doing so, you both fall to the ground.

“Killing him now will make his cannon go off,” You hear a low voice, and you both turn to see that Glimmer is standing a few feet away, watching you both unsurprised.

She crouches beside Marina, and whispers gently, “Marina, you can’t kill him.”

Marina’s eyes harden with fury, “Killing that monster will do us all a favour.”

“No it wouldn’t,” Glimmer says fiercely, “It won’t avenge Murdoch. And it certainly won’t make your girlfriend happy back at home.”

“How did you-“

“I saw the Reaping and I remember what you said on the rooftop. Murdoch was Ariel’s brother. You swore to protect him. You can’t do that now.”

“So let me kill Cato,” She snarls.

“Do that and his cannon will go off. Marvel and Peeta will wake up. And so will Clove. After that, you’ll only have seconds to live.”

“So be it,” She snaps, her struggles fiercer now.

“And give Ariel two coffins to cry over instead of one?”

Marina freezes. Then she murmurs bitterly, “You’ve thought this through.” She frowns and then she adds, “So I kill them both at the same time. Clove and Cato.”

“Not yet,” Glimmer gestures for you both to move closer, “Wait until the big players are gone. The girl from Twelve. The boy from Eleven. Then strike.”

You nod. It makes sense. Glimmer catches your eye and smiles, before moving to help you both up.

“Allies?” She asks.

“Allies,” You and Marina agree.

The next day, you watch Glimmer carefully. She definitely has something up her sleeve. More than she let on to you and Marina. She disappears twice into the woods over the course of the day, and when she comes back that evening, she has a bulge in her pocket.

As you help set up the landmines, she’s fairy quiet too, watching Peeta as he manages to haul three onto his back.

“You don’t like him,” You remark to her quietly one day.

She glances over to you, and smiles slightly, “I know an actor when I see one,” She murmurs, “And he is very very good.”

“He’s tricking us?” You ask.

She tilts her head, “You don’t really think he’s not in love with Katniss, do you?”

“Katniss?”

“The girl from District Twelve.”

“But he said he would help us hunt her down.”

“Indeed he did,” Glimmer murmurs softly, before raising an eyebrow, “And everyone’s believed him. You know, I think he might be the most dangerous out of all of us…”

Later, you split up into the woods to hunt for tributes. As you search, you suddenly feel a wave of heat. Looking up, you see a wall of fire descending down onto you…

As you head back to the base, Cato announces that he’s planning on attacking Thresh tomorrow.

You head to sleep, and the next day, you see Katniss lying in the lake beside your pyramid of food. She startles as you all approach her and you chase her through the woods.

She begins to climb a tree.

Congratulations, you survived the Tracker Jackers!

Marina and Glimmer do not survive. Over the next few days, you and the Careers recover and kill the District Ten boy.

You spot a campfire and go an investigate it. As you do so, you hear an explosion. Running back to your camp, you find that the landmines surrounding your food pyramid have exploded. Everything is destroyed!

Cato kills Alvis, and you all head off into the woods.

You see Marvel start walking off away from Cato and Clove.

Do you want to go with him?

The next day, there’s no sign of Marvel and you all hear two cannons.

That night, the faces of Marvel and the District 11 girl are shown in the sky.

The following day, you hear the sound of trumpets and then the voice of Claudius Templesmith, one of the announcers for the Hunger Games. He says that there’s been a rule change- two tributes from the same District can win.

Cato and Clove immediately erupt into celebration. Then they move away to have a muted conversation.

Their cannons sound.

Days pass and all is quiet. You spend your time rebuilding the traps and finding food.

Then one morning, the skies open and it begins to rain. Droplets sizzle at they hit your skin, and you realise that it’s acid rain.

Quickly you look for a place to hide!

You dive into a bush, but quickly realise that nowhere is safe. The leaves are being destroyed by the rain, so you stumble on, trying to ignore the agonizing pains. A cannon sounds, followed by another. Eventually you reach the Cornucopia- the only place that isn’t being targeted by the acid.

As you stand on the concrete, you see other figures making their way out of the forest- the District 11 boy, and the girl from District 5.

You all study each other. The District 11 boy looks badly injured from the acid rain. The District 5 girl doesn’t look too bad.

The District 11 boy reaches for his weapon.

Suddenly, there’s a yowling sound, and you all turn to see gigantic cats making their way out of the woods and fields towards you, circling you.

The cats suddenly freeze, before turning and disappearing back into the arena. The victory trumpets sound.

Congratulations, you are the victor of the 74^th Hunger Games.

You fail to climb a tree so instead you find a bush and settle there. Eventually the shouts from the Cornucopia dies down, and you hear the sounds of cannons.
