A/N: Hey everybody! I had major plot bunnies hop into my head when I was watching my new DVD of The Hunger Games yesterday, and I jotted down this quick little start to a story. Is it worth continuing? For those of you following my other stories, I promise that I will have more up soon! Life got a hold of me and prevented me from updating, but things have calmed down now, so I'll be updating those stories soon. Please enjoy and let me know if it's worth continuing?
The Doctor had just put the TARDIS into motion when all of a sudden, she lurched to a stop.
"Doctor, what was that? Is that supposed to happen?" Amy Pond asked.
"No, at least I don't think so. Something the TARDIS does things like this. She sometimes takes me place I don't want to go." The Doctor said. He checked the monitors to see where they were. "Well, we're on Earth, so at least we know it's safe to breathe out there. It seems like we've landed in the 25th century, in… No, it can't be! I told myself I would never come here!"
"Where, Doctor? Where are we?" Amy asked. The Doctor didn't hear her. He bounded across the console, trying to get the TARDIS away from wherever it was they had landed. However, she wouldn't budge. The Doctor had a job to do here, and the TARDIS wasn't about to let him back out. He grunted in frustration as he sat down on one of the jump seats in the console room.
"Doctor, if we're here, we might as well look around a bit." Amy suggested.
"No, we're not going out there. I'm not subjecting you to that." The Doctor said.
"Subject me to what? I'm not a kid anymore. I think I can handle what's out there."
"Fine then, but don't say I didn't warn you." The Doctor said, going over to the door and opening it for Amy as she walked through. She walked right into the middle of a crowd, dressed in dirty and tattered clothing. She noticed a little blonde girl crying in the arms of a young man, around 16, who had dark hair. He was gentle with her, petting her head and reassuring her by saying, "It'll be okay, Prim." There were two groups of teenagers, girls and boys, who all seemed to show sad sort of relief on their faces. In the middle of the square was a large stage, with a large screen behind it showing what looked to be a sort of official seal. On the stage stood a young woman with brown hair, braided down the side, with a steely sort of look in her eyes. There was a young man with blonde hair and strong muscles, and in between the two teenagers stood a woman dressed in a pink wig and the gaudiest clothes Amy had ever seen. She stepped up to the microphone with gusto.
"And here they are, the tributes from District 12, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark! Happy Hunger Games!" Effie Trinket announced. Amy almost started clapping, but she noticed that all the people around her had very somber looks on their faces. They simply touched three fingers to their lips and extended them towards the two teenagers on the stage. A silent salute.
"Doctor, what is this? Where are we?" Amy asked.
"Panem." The Doctor replied sadly.
