In a post-apoctalyptic Equestria, the new nation of Panem is born. The country, which is divided into thirteen districts which are all ruled by a single Capitol, faces an uprising by the districts, and District Thirteen is destroyed by the Capitol. The rest of the districts are forced to send one male and one female citezen between the ages of twelve and eighteen to fight to the death in an arena in a televised event known as "The Hunger Games."

[A/N: I was bored, and, just getting home from seeing Catching Fire in theatres, decided to write this. It'll be entirely my own story but will obviously have many key elements that were in the books. Such as the twelve districts, the Capitol, etc. It will also feature an entire cast of OC's, though some of the mane six will be mentioned (albeit very subtly) such as the main character and narrator of the story will be a descendant of Applejack's. This will keep the same style of writing as the books (which I HIGHLY recommend if you haven't read them already) and shall be in first person narrative. The main character isn't much, but you will hopefully see some character developement from her in the later chapters. Well, that's pretty much all I have to say! Enjoy reading, and may the odds be ever in your favor.]
