this is what rue herd last: Deep in the meadow, under the willow A bed of grass, a soft green pillow Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes And when again they open, the sun will rise.
Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings
them true
Here is the place where I love you.
Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings
them true
Here is the place where I...

My Hunger Games Epilogue: *Chapter 1*

posted by prim17luvr101

“Mom?” I ask.
“Yes, honey?”
“I miss Uncle Mantu.”
She hugs me. “Me too, Rosie. Me too.”
Uncle Mantu was my Dad’s brother. He was always so funny and nice and lifted the mood wherever he went. Unlike Uncle Rye who doesn’t want anything to do with our family.
“Where’s Cinna?” I ask her.
“Probably at the bakery with Grandpa Mel and your father.”
“Well, I’m gonna go see him. He seems a little off lately.”
“Alright,” she kisses me on the forehead, “Be safe.” She’s always saying that, as if I’ll ever forget. I go outside and start walking the 5 block trip....

Catching Fire Review (Spoiler Alert)

Catching Fire Review

Yes, I know I am not no big magazine or newspaper reviewer, but I'm a person with an opinion. So here is what I thought about Catching Fire.
Misterious. The science-fiction is this book makes you really wonder, think, and question our world. Such, as what if in the future what is something drastic were to happen and we were put into 12 districts limited supplies, and most all what if the your children or yourself had to go fight for your life. Well the Hunger Games brought that idea to life, and Catching Fire told us the aftermath of that idea. Even thought, Katniss won...

Hunger Games Parody Lyrics - Lazy Song

posted by asthesunsetss

Here's Parody I wrote ! (:

Today, I don't feel like doing anything.
I just wanna sit in my tree.
Don't feel like picking up my bow,
Or rebeling against president snow,
Cause today I am not playing the hunger games.

I'm goona pick up some arrows and sit on a branch
Stay away from the careers, eat a green plant.
No gamemaker's goona tell me I can't.

Nah,

I will walk around the arena, do nothing at all.
And I know this will anger, the capitol
Cause right now I know im really dull.

Oh yes I said it,
I can say it,
Cause Im the mockingjay

Today, I don't feel like doing anything.
I just wanna sit in my tree.
Don't...

The 66th Hunger Games:Chapter 1

posted by Glimmer101

I never in a million years wanted my name to be drawn. When it was, reality hit me... with a train.
"Stephen Leigh!" The booming voice over the microphone exclaimed.
That was my name, but why was I being called during the Reaping? I walked towards the stage slowly trying to figure out what I had done wrong. I was 17 years old but I had only signed up for 2 tesserae. My brother who would be 19 now, always signed up for the tesserae for our family. He had signed up for 10-15 before his name was drawn 7 years ago to go into the Hunger Games. He died near the end against the remaining pack of career's....

Six Questions with ‘Hunger Games’ Avox Girl, Amber Chaney

posted by thehubnow

TheHubNow caught up with actress Amber Chaney this week to talk about her new film, THE HUNGER GAMES.

Based on “The Hunger Games” trilogy of young adult novels by Suzanne Collins, the film features Chaney as Lavinia the Avox Girl, a Capitol servant who seems familiar to heroine Katniss Everdeen.

For our exclusive Q&A, we pitched her six (and only six) questions for a feature we’re going to call – yep, you guessed it – SIX QUESTIONS. Why not five? Too cliche.

1) Tell us how you scored the role of Avox Girl.

I was working on this play called “Circle Mirror Transformation,” for which...

Katniss:

The Mellark Child chapter 1

Okay so this article is going to be about Katniss and Peeta's daughter. This is my first hunger games fan fiction so please be nice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

My name is Fiona Marie Mellark. I am 12 years old. They still have the hunger games and today is the day of the reaping. I get out of bed and I got to the kitchen where I found my Mom and Dad waiting for me. " Here's an outfit to wear at the reaping, go get ready" said my mom. That is exactly what I did and then before I knew it I had to go to the reaping. We walked over and got through the part...

The Hunger Games: First Book Review

posted by deedragongirl

Safe & Sound

Hi guys, I'm currently at the end of the first book. So here is my review on the first book before I watch the movie later on.

Story-Line

I was very impressed with the story, despite that it was complex. Well that's because I need to watch the movie to follow the story! I just couldn't get enough of the plot and I have personally say the series is even better than the awful Twilight Saga.

The Characters

Katniss and Peeta are the two characters who are better than Edward and Bella, they have more chemistry than Edward and Bella and I just can't understand why people tend to compare these couples....

"Ocean's song", Chapter 3 (47th Hunger Games)

posted by rw499

"I was frustrated. I threw a knife at the wall."

My tired and achy body feels numb beneath me. The gentle gliding motion of the train rocks me back and forth like the ocean carrying its waves to the shore. Except waves aren't being carried towards what will most likely be their deaths.

Jay, Tabbie, and Maggie, my mentor-everybody calls her Mags-, all ate in the dining cabin ages ago, but I requested dinner alone in my room. I need time to think and plan strategy. My dinner lies cold and untouched on top of my dresser, the only other piece of furniture in my dismal little train cabin besides my bed. I only have about seven days to prepare...

Truth or Dare with the Hunger Games characters - Chapter 7

"So, my turn?" Cato asked and moved to the middle of the circle.

He spun the bottle and returned to his seat.

And it landed on…

Thresh.

Thresh looked indifferent. Cato smirked.

"Truth or dare?" Cato asked the indifferent looking Thresh.

"Dare," Thresh replied indifferently.

"Ooh, I have a nice dare for you!" Cato declared.

He got an indifferent look from Thresh.

Which freaked him out a bit. Didn't Thresh have any other face expressions? Was he just indifferent all the time?

Weird.

"Come on Cato, say the dare already!" Katniss urged him, looking actually quite excited.

Cato shot Katniss a look, then turned...

Mockingjay Review - beware spoilers

posted by SilverDoe29

First of, I know the majority of the fanbase will disagree with what I have to say but please do not flame. An opinion is an opninon and everybody has a right to one.

Mockingjay was in my opinion the best book in the series because for me it was the perfect conclusion. I realise the majority of the fanbase disliked it but I thought it was just perfect. I know, it IS depressing, but you know what? I liked that. Really, the premise of this series is 24 kids fighting to the death. THAT'S MEANT TO BE DEPRESSING.

First of all, I liked how Katniss's relationship with Gale evolved. They're slowly drifting...

'The Valley Song' Lyrics

posted by no1drwhofan

Rue's touching death scene.

Deep in the meadow, under the willow
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow
Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes,
And when you awake, the sun will rise.

Here it's safe, here it's warm,
Here the daisies guard you from harm,
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true,
Here is the place where I love you.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away,
A cloak of leaves, A moonbeam ray, Forget your woes and let your troubles lay,
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here it's safe, here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true,
Here is the place where I love you.

'I remember when you sang in the music assembly and the teacher said, 'Who knows 'The Valley Song''? and you hand shot straight up!'

And it landed on…

Finnick Odair.

Johanna smiled at the shirtless Finnick. He just looked back at her.

"Bring it on," he said simply, knowing that no matter what she'll make him do or say, he won't care that much. He was the dazzling Finnick Odair, after all. He didn't do embarrass.

"Truth or Dare?" Johanna asked, already thinking about embarrassing dares for the dazzling Finnick.

Finnick noticed her look and decided not to risk it. "Truth."

This disappointed Johanna slightly, but oh well.

"What happened to your shirt?" She said finally, eyeing his bare chest.

the gore on your dirty hands

Dumb Ways to Die: Hunger Games Style

posted by JasmineValdez

First of all if you haven't seen the Dumb Ways to Die video, go ahead and watch it now. Just google it.

***************************************************

Set fire to your gear
Poke a stick at a career
Arrive to the feast late
Use your only food as Mockingjay bait

Dumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die, dumb ways to di-i-i-ie, so many dumb ways to die

Attack someone with only a fork
Run around the Cornicopia acting like a dork
Try to teach yourself how to sing
Eat a two week old unrefrigerated groosling

Dumb ways to die, so many dumb ways to die, dumb ways to di-i-i-ie, so many dumb ways to die...

"Let's play truth or dare!"

Gale raised one of his eyebrows and looked at the excited looking Peeta with a disdainful look. "Truth or dare? What are you, a twelve year old girl?"

"Hey!" both Prim and Rue said, looking at Gale with death glares.

"Actually, I'd love to play truth or dare!" Katniss declared and sat down next to a shirtless Finnick, trying to form a circle.

"Oh... yeah, me too!" Gale agreed immediately, looking at Katniss with a soft, loving expression.

Peeta snorted at him. "Dude, you're so pathetic."

Peeta then turned to sit next to Katniss, shaking with excitement, and tried to make...

The Capitol’s Leading Newspaper

Written by IlovePatch97

What would you do if you and the one you loved were thrown together in a fight to the death? Would you hope someone takes them out before you do or would you sacrifice yourself to keep them alive? On April12, 2720, Katniss Everdeen from District 12, volunteered as a tribute, replacing her younger sister, Prim. Also local bakers’ son Peeta Mellark was chosen as District 12’s male tribute. April 17, 2720 marked the day of the opening ceremonies where our united couple showed off all ablaze. Their flamboyant costumes triggered a frenzied...

Gender Roles in the Series

posted by Dragonclaws

One of the things I find of most note in the Hunger Games trilogy is how gender roles appear to have generally been flipped with regard to the characters Katniss, Peeta, and Finnick. It is not simply that the rules have been flipped, as characters such as Haymitch and Primrose are more traditional while still regarded as acceptable. The individual characters are strong enough that the gender role difference is acceptable. Additionally, the foreign country of Panem can be considered a place where things are done differently, and its citizens are not judged the same way as modern Americans.
