The Hunger Games has been proven to test everyone's virtue, not just the young and unfortunate kids plucked from their districts and thrown into the arena. Venus Hummingstill has never cracked under pressure. Regardless of everything being stripped...
Passion is a most dangerous thing for a woman to have
Everyone is born with a heart and soul containing the potential for virtue, at least in the eyes of Venus Hummingstill they are. In the years following the war, everyone's virtue has been tested in ways greater than they ever expected, including her own. The fight for survival is not only known by the far off Districts, the Capitol has too seen and endured the hardship of the Dark Days. While the opulence has returned and multiplied, some ritualistic practices still remain as a stain on history.
The Tenth Annual Hunger Games are here, lackluster in popularity, but steady excitement hums across the Capitol as people wonder what to expect after the bloodbath of the previous years games. What the citizens weren't aware of, was the ferocious defiance Venus displayed in front of Head Gamemaker Dr. Volumnia Gaul, questioning the games and their necessity for the progression of humankind. With each word she uttered in resistance, borderline rebellion, she was to face a punishment of academic embarrassment meant to keep her in line and on track.
Venus never cracked under the pressure, never allowed anyone see her fail. Using anger and ambition as a means of fuel, she regained her spot at the top of her class right in time for the Academy's graduation. Bidding Dr. Gaul, Dean Highbottom, and the person she shared the glory of top academia with, one Coriolanus Snow, goodbye as freedom from their grasp would soon be hers. However, as soon as she begins to feel comfort settled in her life, her virtue is tested once more as she is appointed as a mentor in this years Hunger Games, with a prize greater than anything Strabo Plinth could offer hanging above her head.
Can Venus live up to the pressure with honor, or, will she be eaten alive by the guilt of a child's life in her hands?
Welcome to the Tenth Annual Hunger Games
OR...
in which Venus Hummingstill must trust her life in the hands of her enemy, Coriolanus Snow, and have faith that Snow will land on top.
