   Summary

   District 6's Ponyboy Curtis is reaped for the 65th annual Hunger Games.

   With other tributes that seem very determined to hunt him down, and a struggling mentor, he's sure that he won't make it.

   But he trusts himself to find reliable allies, anything that could possibly help postpone what he thinks is his inevitable death in the arena. He isn't sure when his allies end up being a shy-looking and quiet boy from District 12 and a seemingly untrustworthy male tribute from District 10 with a questionable past.

   Yet soon enough, he is reminded that there can only be one victor.

   OR

   I'm bad at summaries, this is essentially a Hunger Games retelling of the Outsiders. Kind of.
