So just a couple of notes.
Firstly yes this is a hunger games and hetaia cross over. There are only 20 contestants and the majority will be boys. there will be some yaoi so if you dont like yaoi this is not for you. This fanfiction will only very loosely follow the hunger games plot.
Disclaimer: I do not own Hetalia or the hunger games. If I owned Hetalia PruCan would show up a lot.
The Reaping
The axis were looking at the screen feeling betrayed and appaled. They were promised freedom. They were told this would never happen. Of course they should have known that trusting the Capitol was the wrong idea. Now they were paying the price.
Everybody in all of the districts and the capitol knew that they were countries. They were told small amounts of the countries historys but impart from that the countries lived in peace. However now the Capitol had decided that they should make the games a bit more interesting this year. They were going to dump 20 of the most unpredictable and possibly violent people in the whole of Panem. This year 19 countries were going to die. And nobody knew what the consequences could be.
At this moment the three axis were sitting on Germanys couch and were staring open mouthed at the screen of the TV. Even Italy was looking shocked and that never happened. It was Japan who spoke first "What are we going to do about this?" he asked nobody in particular. "Nothing. We can do nothing but hope that we dont get picked. Every country in the world is here so there is a slim chane we will get picked." Germany sighed to himself. Italy suddenly burst out crying and hugged Germany tight. The Germanic nation hugged him back and rubbed his back soothingly.
The next day
All of the countries were standing in the main square. They were all clumped together in their own groups. However none of them were crying or showing any kind of distress. This was because the cameras were there. Every single one of these countries had been watching the Hunger Games for over 50 years. Pity did not get them sponsers.
Then the strange woman came onto the stage. Her name was Effie Trinket and she usually picked Distric 12s tributes. However 12 wasnt having tributes this year. For 1 whole year the districts could go without worrying about there children dying brutally. The natins got a feeling that this woman was chosen to pick because last year for th first time in the history of the games 2 tributes had survived. Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark. They did some kind of love routine to survive. However all of the countries knew it had been a fake. they were not stupid.
Bck to the matter at hand. Effie Trinket walked up to the mic and rambled on about how it was such a pleasure to be here and all the rest of that stupid stuff she was probably forced into saying. "Now to pick our first tribute." She walked over to the bin and picked out a piece of small paper. There was silence, no one dared to breath. "Finland." Loads of heads turned to the nation.
Obviously this wasnt the best first pick. No one really knew about Finland in Panem. They cared more about stronger countries who had more brutal and interesting historys. Like Germany, England and Russia. They cared about the wars they were involved in. Finland wasnt well known for many wars.
The blonde nation stood as tall as he could before walking up to the stage. However he kept that over optimistic smile on his face. It might be a way to get sponsors. He shook Effies hand and went to stand out of the way. Said woman wlked back to the bin and got anoher slip of paper. "Austria." Another nation barely anybody knew about. Effie had better start picking some better countries or she risked losing her job. Austria walked to the stage and shook Effies hand before moving to stand by Finland. 2 down, 18 to go.
Once again Effie went to the bin. "China." Ok so China was slightly better. People knew some stuff abou Chinas history here. It could have been worst. At least people knew who China was. Once again there was a hand shake but also a bow. China went to stand by the others and looked very small by comparison. Next country.
"North Italy." Germany looked at his closest friend in fear. However the weak nation just stood up tall and walked to the stage. No whit flags or desperate crying. This had changed Italy. Of course Italy wasnt known for his strong past. However he had been close to Germany during WW2 and the Capitol knew he was the person who gave them pasta and pizza. Not a bad pick. Italy shook Effies hand before going to stand by Austria who he was closest to.
Next one was Canada. Now people actually knew about him. He had sent provisions to the people of America in their worst times of hardship. People both hated and adored him. However a majority of the capitol loved him a lot so he could expect some sponsors. Next was South Italy/Romano. He stalked up to the stage muttering "stupid bastard" and the like. He didnt shake Effies hand or even acknowledge her presence. Some people would definitley find his stubborness intruiging.
Then there was England. People in Panem were rather respectful towards him. People in the Capitol were often given History lessons about him and sometimes people in the districts had lessons of his too. However he didnt know this. Being the gentleman he was when he reached Effie he took her and and lighly grazed her knuckles with his lips. He then went to stand by Canada.
After him was Hungary. She walked to the stage without haste. She walked right passed Effie and kissed Austria full on the lips. Austria kissed her right back. They were doing it right. Guess who now has some Capitol fans.
Then there was Sweden. He was very intimidating. He strolled up to Effie shook her hand before going to Finland and taking his hand. However feeling this wasnt enough he lent down and kissed Finland on the cheek. He didnt object but blushed bright red. They could only hope that the people of Panem liked yaoi.
Then America was chosen. He ran onto the stage shouting "I'm the hero." Obviously his people adored him. He was there country. Need I say any more.
After him was Japan. He walked up to the stage and bowed to Effie and then to the cameras. Then he stood next to Italy who fortunatley didnt hug him but just nodded at his presence. Japan felt that good manners were the best way for him to try and grab the attention of the audience.
Then there was Belarus. She was very intimidating. She walked up to the stage and stood alone, polishing a wicked looking knife on her dress. Then came Ukraine. She stood next to her sister with tears slowly pouring down her cheeks. No matter how had she tried to keep it in, she would always cry in the end.
Thwn was Switzerland. He hugged his little sister before walking onto the stage. He kept his gun withhim though and made a big deal of showing it was loaded and ready to fire at any moment.
Then there was Prussia. He just basically shouted "I am awesome" and started rambling about his strength and awesomeness. He didnt know it but the fact that he had won wars and was showing it off now could potentially save his life in weeks to come.
Then came Russia. He walked to the stage in silence, still spoting a childish grin that clashed horribly with his blooded pickaxe. He stood between his two sisters and looked right into the camera as if saying 'you want me? Now you can have me.'
Now there were only 4 more left. Germany got picked next. People quickly noticed how big and strong he looked. Naturally he went to stand by Italy and Japan and it was obvious that they were already an alliance.
Then there was France. He walked up to the stage and flicked his hair back. It was obvious that he was hoping that his looks and natural charm would get him sponsors. Then came Spain. He stood with his two best friends , France and Prussia. then he remembered Romano and pulled him over to them. He didnt object, because he was happy that he was being included.
Now was the last one. The last countries held there breath as Effie pulled out the last piece of paper. "Liechtenstein." She said merrily. the little country ran up to the stage and straight into her brothers arms. You could literally here the Capitol sighing as the small child clung onto her brother.
"Happy Hunger Games, and may the odds be ever in your favor."
And just like that the 20 countries were filed onto a trian, 19 of them destined to die. 1 destined to come home changed forever.
And this is it. I must admit I am rather prod of this. The idae for it came out of nowhere. However I hope to make it 5 star quality for my readers. Please review. By the way, could you please tell me who you think is going to win on the reviews. I love seeing peoples opinions. Ciao.
