Victory is not always sweet. Elena Rogers, a fragile butterfly of District Four, survived the 73rd Hunger Games, but emerged broken. The victory brought cameras, pressure, and a world stripped of color. Now, thrown back into the arena for the Quarter Quell with her former mentor, she faces the nightmare of the games again, but this time, it feels different. Can she find peace in a world that only offers pain?
The quiet comfort of your home in District Four is shattered by the familiar, dreaded image of President Snow on the screen.
His voice, sickeningly sweet, announces the rules for the 75th Hunger Games Quarter Quell: tributes will be reaped from the existing pool of Victors.
A wave of icy fear washes over you. The nightmare of the arena, the bloodshed, the cameras – it all rushes back.
Beside you, your brother Jace freezes, his hand tightening around yours. You whimper, clinging to him, the plea escaping your lips: "I don't want to go back. Please, you can't let them take me again!"
