By decree of Consul Gaius Snow, the so-called 'Final Hour' resolution has been passed into effect. Twenty-four sacrifices: one final bloodbath before the clock strikes midnight, and Panem's darkest day is put in the past. An open SYOT of the 1st Hunger Games.

"We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin." Five years have passed since the last Hunger Games. As Panem teeters on the edge of inescapable chaos, there is one final solution to turn to: bring back the Games. Will twenty three lives be enough to bring peace to Panem? [Sequel SYOT to Crown of Thorns]

Chosen by justice, only a handful have escaped the prison walls. These are their names. These are the tales that demand to be told. These are the success stories. A 'The Cut Verse' companion story.

"The sun, the moon and the stars would have disappeared long ago...had they happened to be within the reach of predatory human hands." Partial SYOT closed.

A darker tale, in an alternate universe, of the final years of the Capitol's reign through the eyes of a previous victor. Certain chapters will have trigger warnings.

One last Everlark non-arena AU. "His arms stealing about me, sweeping up my lower back, Peeta leans into me, bending me until he lays me down in the soft snow. "Hmmmm….. Mmmmm…." I kiss him back, purring, and when he settles on top of me, I make a snow angel with my body as I spread my legs for him." "Rolling around in each other's embrace, I couldn't care less that my body is s

"You don't see it do you?" He pauses and brushes some of my hair over my shoulder, "You really are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." He says it so softly that I barely hear him. I find my breath getting stuck in my throat as I stare up at him, his eyes so full of love and yearning. I don't think anyone has ever looked at me like that, like I was everything. *Mature*

It's been eight and a half years since Wiress Ling fought her way free of the Hunger Games arena. Every year since she has travelled to the Capitol to watch children from District Three die in her care. But changes are coming to Panem, a soft whisper of rebellion that begins echoing around the districts and grows louder with every passing year. Sequel to Tears of an Angel.

Another year and 24 new lives for the capitol to bend to their will. No one survives the hunger games, but who will be the one to walk out of it? Syot closed

Convince me, snow said. What better way than a baby, Katniss is pregnant and is being forced back into the games for the quarter quell She was forced into these games, and now she is forced to deliver during them or abort. At the same time even with her growing belly Snow isn't convinced. Everyone says it's Peetas, and that's what Panem has to believe, but Snow wonders is it Gales?

Catching Fire: Pregnant Katniss Everdeen. New CF Arena. Slow Burn. Romance. "Do you miss it?" I ask. I thought of the lingering touches, the meaningless kisses, the arena. Part of me is consumed with guilt and another, much smaller part, is reminiscent. "I cannot say I miss the lies," Peeta whispers. He does not miss the fighting, the death, or my kisses.

Everyone knows that the Hunger Games are about violence, but real fans know the truth: they're also romantic. The blood, the roses, the tension, the fashion, the dreams of money and fame. The Hunger Games are the union of violence and romance, and these tributes are about to go on their honeymoon. (OPEN SYOT, readers can sponsor). My 3rd SYOT!

Panem is at war with the Hybrids, creatures created in the laboratory by the Capitol. After the war is over and a treaty is made and the nation must learn to live with the Hybrids as allies. Katniss is distrustful of the creatures that destroyed so many what happens when she encounters them. Hunger Games Canon Divergent AU

Katniss Everdeen was never born. The games continued and claimed more and more of panems children. For the 5th quarter quell the twist is that only one tribute would be reaped. Every child aged 12-18 who shares a birthday with this tribute is eligible for the tribute to pick to go into the arena with them. 23 more lives will be claimed this year.

What if when Katniss volunteered for Prim, she didn't go in her place, but went with her into the Hunger Games? Rated T for violence

"Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it." As Panem prepares for the death of the only president most of its citizens have ever known, both the tributes in the Games and the officials running them must take care to learn from the past - lest the same mistakes come back to haunt Panem's future. A rewrite of my first SYOT.

Come this 76th Annual Hunger Games, Zenobia Rivendell will become judge, jury and executioner. (AU)

(Side Story). "As the wheel turns, ages come and go, birthing the world anew."

As the 74th Hunger Games approach, the idea of a free Panem is mere wishful thinking, but there are some who wonder how a country can recover from so many years of brutal dictatorship. Sooner than they ever dared to hope, they will turn their plans into reality and put a regime on trial, but the path to getting justice for an entire nation will be long and difficult. IPOAL prequel.

Mrs. Snow was married to her husband for more years than her fingers could count and Mr. Heavensbee had great plans laid out for the nation that would get him removed from the precious thing called 'life' if found out. Somehow, both collide at an evening dinner, share a few interests, and repeatedly have to remind themselves that they shouldn't be that foolish.

The shadow of a faded star gets trampled on by a man in black. He sends screams through the night but they're silenced by the lost. Hell's finally frozen over and Coriolanus Snow steps out of the dust with vengeance. The 52nd Games are hardly his priority, but perhaps they'll distract Panem from his approaching storms. It's about time the Districts served their penance...

"May your survival be long, and your death be swift."

The caged bird doesn't sing: it weeps. For a gilded cage is still a cage, no matter how beautiful it is. Welcome to the 88th Hunger Games. SYOT closed, readers always welcome :)

Katniss misses her father. Drabble.
