Ok, this is really random, and I wouldn't be able to get to this for a while, but it's an idea for a story, and I want you to tell me what you think:

--

About 77 years after Panem is first founded, (Before the first rebellion), the nation is in a secret power struggle. Fifteen years before, is a crystal-clear radio broadcast was picked up by the Capitol President’s personal radio. The message? The nation of Great Britain, always thought to have been engulfed by rising waters, was alive and thriving, and didn't approve of what was happening in Panem. In fact, they were quite ready to wage war if the Capitol didn’t change its oppressive ways. Which, of course, it didn't. So, the War of Secrecy begins. The Capitol wages war with Britain, without ever alerting the districts that anything has changed. The war lasts up to the present time...

Now, it is almost finished. Britain, even with massive technological advantages like satellites, is on the brink of collapse. As a last-ditch effort, it sends a submarine, loaded with the worlds most advanced technology, to Panem, …

A month later, a young boy is walking along the beach in District Four when he finds a girl’s body laying in the surf. After being pronounced dead, the residents of the small village her body was found in prepare a make-shift burial. But before she is loaded into the ground, her eyes open, her heart starts beating, and she lives.

She speaks in a strange accent. She shows almost no emotion. She knows nothing of her past.

Nothing but her name. Her name, she says, is Ancora.

To the people in Britain, her name is Hope.

The story would be told from the perspective of several different characters, in several different styles. It would follow the mysterious Ancora as she slowly discovers who she is, what she is meant to do, and how she influences the history of Panem forever.

And yes, Ancora is Latin for Hope. Sorta.

And no, I’m not British.

So, wacha think? Would you read this?
