AN: ILuvMyFangPlushie here.
So, I was filling out one of those number things. The ones where you list out characters and then there are questions and a lot of random pairings and stuff? It's on a lot of people's profiles, including mine.
The one I filled out the was so awesome and it gave me so much inspiration. I got three amazing story ideas maybe even more out of them.
This is one of them.
This is also going to be the first of my fanfics where the plot is going to entirely mine. So far, my stories either followed the books or followed fables, fairy tales, and ideas from people.
Iggy and Katniss sitting in tree. H-U-N-T-I-N-G. First comes partners, then comes Mockingjays, then comes rebellions in a boom boom way.
Here's the full summary
Katniss was hunting in the forest one day, when she came across a young boy facing the lake. Iggy turns to her and says that he heard her approaching. Katniss, priding herself on her light footsteps, feels alarmed. Iggy sensing the alarm reassures her and tells her of his enhanced senses. Over the next couple of days, he helps her hunt, but will they always be just hunting partners? If Iggy turns out to be part Mockingjay, what would happen then?
Oh, in this story there is no Gale.
There are NEVERMORE SPOILERS in this story. Just a couple. It's about the ending of Nevermore. Just in the first couple chapters though. It's pretty much only in like the background info. I'm sorry, I really can't write this story without putting them in. It's the background for gosh sakes. If you don't want to know, then don't read.
Disclaimer: I ILuvMyFangPlushie do not own either Maximum Ride or The Hunger Games
Introduction: The Perfect Hunting Partner
It was a typical day of hunting. Fifteen year old Katniss has been walking around the forest for over an hour catching game.
(AN: That's one year before the actual hunger games for those of you that didn't know.)
She decides to go to the lake and wash up.
She comes to the lake and she sees a lonely boy facing the lake.
Iggy turns to her. "I heard you approaching."
Katniss, a girl who prides herself on her light foot steps, feels alarmed.
Iggy senses her alarment. "Don't worry, I have enhanced hearing. I hear everything."
Katniss sighs in relief. "What are you doing here? I've never seen you before."
Iggy pats the ground beside him. "My family just moved here about a day ago."
Katniss sits down. "Oh, what district are you from?"
"District?" Iggy asks confused.
"Yeah, what district are you from?" Katniss asks again.
"Like school district? My schooling is very limited," Iggy says.
"You don't go to school? If you aren't from Panem, then where are you from?" Katniss asks in wonder. If this boy's never heard of Panem, then he must have lived somewhere other than here. Somewhere without these horrible games.
"In treehouses in the middle of the ocean," Iggy says.
"What?"
Iggy grins.
"You're joking right?" Katniss asks.
"Nope, treehouse in the middle of the ocean," he says.
Katniss is at a loss for words. She can't tell if he is joking or what.
"Where am I exactly? What's Panem?" Iggy asks.
"In the ruins of a place once known as North America..." Katniss begins.
"Wait, we're in North America? I thought we were in Russia? I'm pretty sure we're in Russia. The US is that way," Iggy says confused.
"Russia? What's Russia?" Katniss asked.
"What do you mean what's Russia? You know, Russia. Giant country that was almost like an empty wasteland. You LIVE in Russia," Iggy says.
"No, I live in Panem," Katniss says.
"Is that a city?"
"It's a nation or a country ruled by the Capitol."
"So, like a communist country?"
"A what?"
"You know what? Just tell me about this place. I won't interrupt anymore."
"This is Panem. A nation that rose from the ashes after years of disasters and war. This is us. The Capitol surrounded by thirteen districts. Then came the Dark Days where the districts uprised against the Capitol and as punishment district 13 was distroyed and the hunger games were created," Katniss explains.
"This all happened in three years?" Iggy asks.
"What? No, the Dark Days happened centuries ago," Katniss says. Three years?
"Are we talking about the cold war or something?"
"What's the cold war?"
"This really long feud between the United States and Russia? You don't seem to have a Russian accent."
Katniss and Iggy both started to feel really confused.
"Okay, so basically, what I'm getting at is that you guys have been living for centuries in Russia, without any contact what so ever with the outside world and the rest of the world had not even a clue of your guy's existance?"
"So, there ARE places out side of Panem?" Katniss asked hopingly.
"There used to be, until everything blew up," Iggy says sighing.
"What do you mean?" Katniss says.
"Three years ago, a giant meteor hit the earth and pretty killed most of the people. You seem fine and apparently there's a whole civilization."
"What was it like, before everything?" Katniss asks.
"Shouldn't really be asking me. I didn't have what you would call a happy childhood. Plus, I'm blind if you haven't noticed."
Katniss is shocked. She looks closely at his face. His eyes are kind of hazy and unfocused, yet he's still looking at her in a way that kind of makes her feel kind of weird.
"See something you like?" Iggy says grinning.
"What? No, I was just..," Katniss trails off when she feels his fingers on her face.
"You're really red," Iggy says grinning even more.
"I thought you were blind?" Katniss questions in embarassment, pushing his hands away.
"I am, I can feel colors though."
"Feel colors?"
"Yeah, it's kind of hard to explain."
"Can you do anything else?"
Iggy shrugs. "Can you?"
"I can hunt."
"I kind of heard you earlier. Arrows?"
"Yeah."
"I can help you."
"Help me what?"
"My ears are really sensitive and I can pick up even the slightest of sounds. Bet, my ears could be really useful."
"We can try."
"Alright then," Iggy says getting up. He holds out his hand.
Katniss just stares at it for a while.
"So, you gonna grab it or what?"
Katniss smiles and takes his hand. He lifts her up and they start to walk.
"I'm Iggy by the way."
"Katniss. Let the hunting begin," Katniss says.
