Cynthia Hand
- Unearthly
And there were a couple of rules: Don't tell Jeffrey - he's not old enough. Don't tell humans - they won't believe you and even if they did, they couldn't handle it. My neck still tingled when I remembered the way she'd said "humans", like the word suddenly didn't apply to us.

Katniss Everdeen
- The Hunger Games
The rules of the Hunger Games are simple. In punishment for the uprising, each of the 12 districts must provide one girl and one boy, called tributes to participate. The 24 tributes will be imprisoned in a vast outdoor arena that could hold anything from a burning desert to a frozen wasteland. Over a period of several weeks competitors must fight to the death. The last tribute standing wins.
