Authors Note: Hi I'll try to add new chapters as much as possible but it might take a while. I've got ideas for all of them; I just need to write them up.

4th Hunger Games

Winner: Thom District 4

By now District 1 was beginning to get a reputation among the other districts as being the one to beat. Having won the first one, District 2 had also got a reputation but not as much as District 1. Any remaining hope of the Hunger Games stopping was truly gone by the time the reaping came around this year. Now people just hoped that it wasn't their children that would be picked for the reaping, even in the districts that would eventually have the career tributes, there were no volunteers until the 16th Games. But some people who didn't have anyone to care about anymore started up an illegal betting business within the districts as to who would be picked for the reaping. Not many people would bet but some did in the hope of a little extra money – this was especially popular in Districts 11 and 12 which where the two poorest districts and where a little extra money could go a long way. The reaping was a huge day for everyone, even if you didn't have any family left.

In the 3 days of training, the Gamemakers chose to come and watch the tributes train, something they had never done before. It was a good idea but meant that some tributes didn't learn vital survival skills because they were too busy showing off to the Gamemakers. The tributes this year would need survival skills more than ever before as this year one of the Gamemakers had been promoted to Head Gamemaker and was determined to make his mark on the Games. His name was Augustus Snow. There were no mutts yet but the Head Gamemaker chose to influence something else… the weather.

The arena this year was an ordinary looking valley and the Cornucopia was at the top of one side of the valley. When the gong sounded the tributes had to race up the hill and only several made it in time to grab weapons before they were slaughtered. However as the tributes trying to get up the steep hill were already halfway up, it was too late to run away from the tributes with weapons resulting in the biggest bloodbath yet with 11 dead.

Thom, the boy from District 4, was one of the smart ones and had run away as soon as the gong sounded. He headed for shelter in the leafy undergrowth without stopping to get food or water. It was one of the best ideas anyone had in the 4th Hunger Games as that night there was a torrential storm. Hours worth of rain washed all the food any tributes had collected away and the boy from District 10 was drowned as he tripped and fell face down in a huge puddle. Unable to get up from a twisted ankle he died. Three more tributes had the same fate before the night was over.

After the rain died down, many tributes came out of their shelter to search for food thinking the worst was over. Thom was one of the ones who did come out into the open but only to collect a few berries and a bit of water before retreating back inside. The day passed on without any more rain and the tributes relaxed thinking the worst of the weather was over. But they were wrong.

That night a horrendous gale whipped up and hailstones the size of rocks fell all night long. Quite a few tributes were safe from the storm but the ones who had gone to hunt down the other tributes paid for it and died in agony. The District 1 tributes had been hunting the other tributes and had nearly found Thom who had no weapons but all the weapons in the Cornucopia couldn't protect the two District 1 tributes from the hail and they both died as Thom stood there and watched. The night was filled with cannon's being fired.

After the storm was over many tributes stayed hidden in fear of another storm. But Thom took the risk and crept out to where the District 1 tributes had been. The dead tributes had been taken away but their weapons had been left behind and their weapons were what Thom wanted. Now the main competition was gone and most tributes didn't dare leave their shelters, Thom could be the one to hunt them down!

He would only move by day as the nights were filled with storms and rain but slowly he did find the other tributes and he did manage to kill them all with the showdown being between him and a small girl from District 5 that had no weapons and could only scream in fear as Thom took out a bow and arrow and shot her in the neck. The 4th Hunger Games had been a success so Augustus Snow got to keep his job as Head Gamemaker and soon became the tributes worst nightmare
