Before the Games
Selene was reaped for the 59th Games. Her family didn't come from much and she had put in her names extra times for more tessarae.

The Games
Selene went under the radar, getting herself a score of 6 so people would underestimate her. Selene was initially targeted by the Capitol for being a "weak-link" but when she got in the bloodbath she took out half the career pack with her axe including the female from 1 and both tributes from 4.

In that year the arena was a big cruise ship and she was able to forage food from rooms and hide out in the kitchen. She found it easier to defend herself if she remained in one place, picking off those that came near. This went on for several days. In this time, Selene killed the male from 8 and the girl from 10.

When there were only 5 tributes left, Selene left the kitchen, looking for tributes to kill. She wanted out of the arena. She wanted the Games to be over. It was apparent Selene had become unhinged. The Capitol didn't particularly favor Selene because of her headstrong attitude and seeming disdain for the Games. It appeared the Gamemakers wanted the District 1 male to win. They even sponsored him with a sword. He himself had killed 5, just as Selene had. A loner from an outlying District was rallying for the win, and the Capitol hated it.

Another day came and went. Selene, the boy from 1, the male from 2, and the male from 7 all survived. The boys from 1 and 2 had initially been allies. But earlier on the duo had split after the other Careers had died. Selene, unknowing of this, was prepared to fight both of them. She had kept track each night which Careers were alive, and had been prepared to fight off the pair. However, on the 9th night of the Games, she was surprised to see the boy from 2 in the sky. The boy from 7 had beheaded him.

On the final day, Selene hid out around the cruise ship, waiting for the District 1 male to come into view. Eventually he found where she was, hiding under a staircase in the main lobby. She ditched her hiding place and pulled out her spear. She used it to block two swipes from his sword, and then rolled forward to get away from him. He managed to nick her back as she tumbled away, causing her to shriek in pain. She should have died.

And then Selene found the energy to rise up. She gripped her spear and turned to face him. He laughed. She threw her spear at him in rage. He easily deflected it. Her only defense was gone. His own arrogance may have saved Selene. He laughed, and tossed his sword down. Selene backed up as she came towards her, cracking his knuckles.

"I'm going to enjoy watching the life drain from your face as I strangle you." He chuckled.

Selene said nothing, and only breathed heavily, her faced twisted in anger and pain. He jumped on top of her, and held her down. She squirmed under the much bigger tribute. He reached down, his large warm hands touching her throat. She hated the feeling. It only made her more angry. His hands wrapped around her throat, with his thumbs putting pressure on her esophagus. She felt the air being cut off from her lungs. She struggled underneath him. Her vision began to fade. And then she heard choking. Was it her own? No. The boy from one coughed up blood. He fell over. An axe was in his back. The boy from 7...

Selene sat up, trying to catch her breath. Her back still stung from the pain of the sword wound. She could hardly breathe. The boy from 7 was no where to be found. She took a moment and caught her breath. She turned to look at the boy from 1's dead body. She struggled at first, but managed to take the axe out of his back. A hovercraft took his body.

Where was the boy from 7? Why hadn't he finished her off... And then it dawned on her. He had thought she was already dead when he threw his axe. And now she had his best weapon in her hands. Selene didn't know what else he had, but she was confident he wasn't much without his axe.

An hour passed and nothing happened. Selene hadn't gone far, and was once again hiding under the stairs. She had finally calmed down and was waiting for the boy from 7 to make a move. She had his axe sitting close, and had also collected her spear. He would have to come find her eventually, and he probably assumed he had the upper hand. Selene would eventually use this to her advantage.

Finally the boy emerged, seemingly looking around for his axe. He was carefully moving about quietly, however Selene had quickly spotted him from her place under the stairs. In one swift movement, she emerged from the stairs, and planted his own axe in his chest.

In what could've ended poorly for Selene, and greatly for the Gamemakers, had gone quite oppositely.

Aftermath
Despite her Victory, Selene was never a team player. She didn't champion the Capitol on her Victory Tour, and she refused many advances from Capitolite fans. The President punished her by killing her whole family. The President took advantage of the Quarter Quell to have Selene reaped into the Games to prevent further rebellion from her.

Before the Games
Selene was reaped into the 75th Hunger Games. The quell "twist" that year required the tributes to be reaped from the existing pool of Victors. The tributes didn't know it at the time, but President Snow rigged the Quell to silence rebellious Victors. Selene was one of those targeted, due to her outright denial of Capitol norms and her refusal to obey President Snow. She has yet to verbally incite rebellion, but it's expected that she might in time, leading to the Capitol wanting her killed.
