Demonic: Welcome to my Hunger Games/Maximum Ride crossover.

Katniss's POV

President Snow takes the stage, while Haymitch, Peeta, my mother and I watch the television anxiously.

"On the twenty-fifth anniversary, as a reminder to the rebels that their children were dying because of their choice to initiate violence, every district was made to hold an election and vote on the tributes who would represent it."

Haymitch closes his eyes, the flashbacks had been getting worse lately.

"On the fiftieth anniversary," the president continued, "As a reminder that two rebels died for each Capitol citizen, every district was required to send twice as many tributes."

Peeta grimaced as he imagined the children he knew being forced into the ring he barely survived. I wrapped an arm around him, trying to comfort him like the friend I was.

"And now we honour our third Quarter Quell," says the president. A little boy rushes up the steps and hands him a little white box. He pulls out a yellow envelope, one of the many in the cursed box, and tears it open.

"On the seventy-fifth anniversary, as a reminder that none can overcome the power of the Capitol, the male and female tributes will be made to fight our greatest weapon, Maximum Ride and her flock!"

The Senators gasped and began to murmur amongst themselves loudly and urgently.

The giant overhead monitor flickered on, showing an icy chamber.

"A thousand years ago, our ancestors created the ultimate weapon, six unstoppable hybrids." The monitor zoomed in on six caskets. The first showed a beautiful girl of sixteen, the name MAXIMUM RIDE/A23R carved on the casket. It moved to the second one, revealing a darkly handsome boy, around the same age as the girl, FANG/A45R. The third was a strawberry blonde, sixteen too, IGGY/A87R. The fourth, a dark-skinned girl with wildly curling brown hair, she only looked thirteen. NUDGE/F12D. The next was a boy of twelve, a cute little blonde. GASSMAN/K95B. The last was a an angelic little girl, lips turned in a faint smile, she looked like an eight-year old. ANGEL/V11Q.

"In two days time, they will be awakened, and will be released into the arena, with the tributes. They care only for the other, and will destroy all who get in their way. The winner of this Quarter Quell will receive food for the entire District for 50 years."

The TV clicked off, leaving us behind in shocked silence. Gale walked in, tracking in snow.

"What did I miss?"
