2. Story
Katniss Everdeen had survived the Hunger Games. But in doing so she lit the spark that could cause an uprising against the Capitol. Now the Capitol, and especially President Snow, hates her. After the Games she and Peeta, the other winner, make the Victory Tour through the 12 districts of Panem. In 11 they see the beginning of an uprising, but it is quickly knocked down. President Snow forces Katniss to continue to act as if she is madly in love with Peeta, because that was their way of surviving the arena. He threatens to kill all her loved ones if she doesn’t. He thinks this will stop the uprising, but it doesn’t. Then it is time for the next Hunger Games. The third Quarter Quell, the 57th Hunger Games. To celebrate this anniversary the Capitol announces that the tributes will be reaped from the existing pool of Victors. This means Katniss and Peeta have to go back to the arena for another Games. In the arena they team up with Finnick and Mags from district 4, Beetee and Wiress from district 3 and Johanna from 7. All their teammates protect them and Finnick and Johanna even save their lives. Katniss doesn’t understand why. Later it turns out there was a plan to get them all out. Katniss has to become the Mockingjay, a bird she wore as a token during the previous games, that has become a symbol of rebellion. Wiress and Mags both die in the arena. At the end of the games Beetee gives his life to destroy the force field that surrounds the arena so the others can be picked up by the rebels and be brought to a safe place. Something goes wrong and Peeta and Johanna are captured by the Capitol. Finnick and Katniss are safe for the moment.
