Hello! Hi, so no I'm not new to the series... I actually learned to love reading thanks to this series... I read all the books when they first came out! I was a total fangirl, I stalked the whole movie production. Only to drop it a year later, yup I'm one of those who thinks the book was better! Still, I don't Judge those who have only seen the movies, right? But, still, some characters are only in the books, or their personalities, and physical features, or at least how I saw it! So, I'll provide an explanation for each of them up here! This is one of my favorite books! I've read it more than it should be legal... And I hope not to screw it up! I've changed some of the time periods when characters meet, and what happens when they first interact, so I'm honestly sorry for those who hate this! I'll try my best to keep to the characters! Woah.. I've said a lot.. 'Kay I hope you enjoy! And I hope you review and comment on it!- avv90
Katniss Everdeen- The main protagonist of the Hunger Games series, a thin, dark-haired, olive-toned, 16-year-old, young girl. Born in the poorest district of District 12 she is a clever, distant girl, who chose to stay away from people. With the early death of her father, Katniss became the head of the household, providing for the family, with the help of her childhood friend, Gale Hawthorne. She entered the first Hunger Games to protect her younger sister Primrose from being sent to her certain death. Still, she won the first games thanks to her Illegal Hunting experience, and with the help of the boy with the bread, Peeta Mellark. Who help feed her, and her family as a child, he also pretended to be in love with her to win the favor of the people in the capital, or so she was told. After returning home, both Gale, and Peeta became distant, both asking for her chose, only for her to become confused with what they meant. As a young 17-year-old, she became the first female victor in her district, but her problem only just seems to escalate from the point of winning.
Buttercup- A hideous yellowish brown cat that belongs to Primrose Everdeen. Holds a strong grudge against Katniss due to the fact that she tried to drown him when she found him.
Primrose Everdeen- The younger sister of Katniss, who was chosen to participate in the Hunger games, but was overruled when her older sister volunteered to take her place. She is a young girl who started off at the age of 12, she is very small, blonde hair, blue eyes, like her mother. Very bright, and bubbly, and an excellent aid with the sick.
Mrs. Everdeen- The Mother of Katniss, and Primrose Everdeen. With the death of her husband, she became emotionally unstable, often blanking out, and leaving her children to fend for themselves. She is an excellent nurse, and aid to the sick. Katniss and she have a rough, and rocky relationship due to the fact that she left Katniss to mature early, and hunt for their food, and raise Primrose.
~~So, yes- I am editing this fic because I do not want to give up on it! I want to know what you guys think! I hope it's positive- and if not sorry you don't like it!~~~~
My nose crinkled at the scent of ash- the air being bitterly cold, teeth crackling and shiver-inducing. I pulled my legs to my chest, as it hit me.
What the hell was over? Nothing- this-this shit was all just beginning wasn't it? I knew it- Haymitch told me, the world has already told me. My stomach churned, as I rolled on my side. My chest pumped out air, and back in as I took a long breath. What could I do? Pray for some god to give me a blessing? To help me-Ha! Nothing could help me, not a god. Not a nation. No one.
I won. I freaking won the 74th hunger first woman from District 12 to do it. Impressive... I guess but I didn't even do it on my own?
That blonde kid! He helps me make it through that hell with my mind in peace! He-he...
"Peeta..." The clouds puffed out of my lips as I held my tears back, that idiot. He was everything I needed at that moment. Now he was gone. It was my fault as well. I pushed him everything else I have done, I pushed him away. He was acting- I knew- I thought I knew..he was- why was he.. He- "Ughh!" I sucked in some air, as I felt the waterworks making their way. What could I do? Wasn't he acting?
Meow! I turned my head up, quickly I rubbed my face raw- looking for the owner of the sound. Meow! My eyes grew large as I face it. "You-" My voice filled with venom, it snarled at me. As I sent a kick to it, "Stupid cat!" I saw it flash forward to my leg, as I smiled to him. It was the only normal thing here. He didn't change. Even in a large house, even with a full belly- he managed to make me feel at home. I stood, walking back to the balcony.
"You-" My voice filled with venom, as it snarled at me. I sent a kick its way, "Stupid cat!" I saw it flash forward to my leg, as I smiled to him. It was the only normal thing here. He didn't change. "Stupid cat hated me back then and still does..." Even in a large house, even with a full belly- he managed to make me feel at home. I stood walking back to the balcony.
"Everything changed Buttercup." I could hear a menacing hiss, "Sept for you?" I let out a small chuckle, maybe I did lose it in there- I am speaking with a cat. "Hey, cat?" I heard him sneer,
"Who told anyone to change?"
I pushed my door open, feeling the warmth rush over my face. My lips- burned cold as I was consumed by the darkness in the room. It was so foreign, my last bed was a sleeping bag. What would I do to go to that normality- instead of this? A large mattress- covered in linen and silk? Large walls, with a desk- and stupid paintings on the wall. I hated this. Was this what changed everyone- even Mage didn't speak with me. She always kept her head low and walked away. Gale was worse, he broke off our friendship. Demanding for more from me. What more of me was there left to give. I was empty, everything I had left was for one person. The person I did everything for, the one I wanted to return to. Primrose. She was all I needed, she was everything. I got what I wanted. My sister. I am prepared to lose everything for her. I think I have shown at least that but- why was I so selfish? She was enough... She should have been enough! Why wasn't she enough to make me feel- whole? Why must I always be so selfish?
I tucked my braid in my coat, nodding. I moved to my door- pulling it open to see a pair of eyes. Her eyes grew large at my sight, I quickly drew a smile on my lips,
"Prim?" I saw her eyes flash brightly as I leaned closer to her. Pecking her pale cheek, I moved back waiting for her to speak.
"Katniss?!" Her tone hid her surprise, "How did you know I was at your door?" I pressed my eyes closed as I kneeled to her,
"I felt my little sister wanting to see me?" She gave me a toothy smile as she shook her hair,
"Are you going out?" I looked down to my clothing heavy coat, gloves, thick boots, and a scarf. I puckered my lips a bit as I spoke to her,
"As a matter of fact," I moved my cold hands over her cheeks, feeling their warmth- it was so nice to see her- her glossy eyes. To see her. "I am." Her cheeks lit up as I questioned. "Is there something you want-" My brows knitted into concern, "Tell me?" I held her as she shook her head.
"No! No- I am fine." She lowered her head to me, "Thank you." She cracked me a smile, this is what I lived for. My sister, only my sister.
"Then tell me?" I took a breath, "What's wrong?" She only shook her head, showing me her blonde locks bouncing.
"I wanted to ask you a favor?" I chuckled lightly to her,
"And what may that favor be my little Prim?" Her giggles arose from her lips, her rose cheeks beamed in my eyes. She was absolutely perfect.
"Well-" She poked a cheek in as she lip puckered, "You know how tomorrow Cinna is coming over-"
"To dress me?" She nodded happily,
"Yes!" Her smiled grew, "I wanted to ask you if I could be there! Peeta will be there-" His name made my stomach flip but the pain could not be shown on my face. I bit my tongue continuing to nod,
"Yes... He will be here-" I sucked in a rough breath as I continued, "You want to be there with me?" She pushed back her hair, smiling.
"Yes!" I shook my head up,
"Of course- my little ducky can be there!" She jumped into the air, pouncing me into a tight hug just as I remembered. "Wait!" Her jumps of glee stopped as she pulled back a bit. "Don't you have classes that day?" Her head hung low as she knew she did,
"I was hoping you would- take me out of-" I shook my head to her as she sunk a bit lower. I reached forward taking her rosy nose- tugging it.
"Of course I will." Her glee arouses as she clenched her fists,
"I will go get my outfit ready!" I smiled to her, "Ohh!" She called back to me, "They will make you look better than what you already look like!" I shrugged a bit,
"Go to bed then, it'll be a long day." She leaned into me, holding me tightly.
"Thank you! Thank you so much Katniss!" I swallowed hard pulling back,
"Anything for my little duckling!"
Her door closed behind me, as I slowly crept down the stairs. I heard the sink pouring, as I came down to the living room. I looked to the fire, it was a nice burn- and a scent of ash. The lights in the kitchen hurt my eyes- it was like hospital lights in the capital. I felt the chill run through me, as I leisurely strolled to the door. The water turned off as I turned the doorknob.
"Katniss?" I didn't even turn my head to know who it was. "Is that you?" Her voice was so squeaky. How would I deal with her?
"What?"
"Are you going out young lady?" I shook my head, letting out a scoff.
"Does it matter?" She thought she could be my mother? Now she wants to tell me what to do? After I won a game where I murdered people she became the worst person, she changed. Why did she want to be my mother now? Where was she when we were starving, when I needed a mother?
"You do not come and go in this home-"
"This is not your home." I pressed my eyes closed, "I'll be back." I swallowed before speaking, "Make sure Prim is asleep."
"Katniss-"
"I am picking her up tomorrow from school." She did not respond, "Go clean, or something."
"Katniss-"
"She wants to see me off." I gave a scoff, "I'll be back later-"
"Katniss…" She folded her hands together, "would you like me to be there as well?" I turned to her- eyeing her. She blinked rapidly,
"If you want." I pressed my eyes opening them to her. "Prim will be there. She'll want you there as well. So be there." Her mouth pressed into a tight look,
"I will be then."
"Go to bed. I'll be back later."
"Katniss-your mother is worried for you- you are changing so much-" I looked at her, shaking my head. What was she trying to prove? She was my mother- but she never raised me. She was not a mother figure in my life,
"I have not changed. Everyone else has, I am as normal as ever."
"Katniss I did not mean-"
"You did mean it." I took a deep breath opening the door. Stepping out in the snow.
