Answer 2

The country of Panem, shining with its twelve Districts and Capitol, is about to go through another session of The Hunger Games. There was a rebellion 74 years ago with the districts against the Capitol. The Capitol won, destroying District 13 in the process. When the war was over, The Capitol forced the districts to, each year, send a boy and a girl to a death match. Seventy-four years later, in District Twelve, Katniss Everdeen is entering for The Games when they call her sister, Prim Everdeen. In an attempt to save her from The Games, Katniss volunteers for her sister, and that is when they call the boy, Peeta Mallark. When she goes to the Games, she tries to stay in an alliance with Peeta, but knows that she will eventually will have to kill him. When the peacekeepers announce that the contestants can have a partner and can both win, Katniss and Peeta stay with each other. When it comes down to Katniss and Peeta, they then announce that there cannot be two winners, but in an act of rebellion, Peeta and Katniss each grab a handful of poisonous berries, threatening to kill themselves. The announcers quickly say that they can both win, so Katniss and Peeta both win The Hunger Games.
