This is my first fanfic, and a sequel of my friend's 225th hunger games fanfic. Enjoy And let the 226th Hunger Games begin!
Ah, the Capitol. A safe haven in a world of wars and misfortunes. The glittering center of Panem and its 13 districts surrounding the land. Once lost, it has once again been founded and resumed its full glory!
It all started hundreds of years ago. The ruins of a lost continent called North America. Filled with a vast and empty nothingness. Wars tore across the land and uprooted proper living. Brother rose against brother, and son against father. No one was safe, and nothing was at peace.
But then, the Capitol rose from the ashes and so began the great civilization of Panem and its 13 districts ringing with joy of the new land of hope and prosperity! Each district specializes in their own way to help the Capitol become the shining light in the lost world.
Each year, however, to give the message that rebelling will only bring more death and devastation, the Capitol created the Hunger Games- a brilliant way to keep the districts in line. Every year, two citizens of each district, a boy and girl between the ages of 12 and 16 were picked by lottery at an annual reaping. They were brought to the capitol where they are showered with pride, and then brought to an arena to fight to the death. The one survivor, bathed in riches and glory, shows the Capitol's generosity and forgiveness.
However, not everything was at peace. Seventy-five years later, new rebellions tore through the lands. The Districts rebelled and took over parts of the capitol. Wars once again presented themselves in a whole new fashion. The Capitol was then defeated-almost. Five years later, with help from a foreign country's technology, the Capitol rose once more. Districts 12 and 13, previously destroyed, were restored and the reign of the Capitol began again, forgiving the districts of their choice to rebel. The Hunger Games was started once more, and now, over a hundred years later, is still being used to keep the districts in line and bring everyone together for a time of festivities for the games!
Author's Note: I'll be adding more pages soon, I just wanted to get the prologue out of the way :D Next week I'll have the D1 Reapings posted
