My Fictional Hunger Games Dream Team

Well, I have seen other people do this. They have questions like, "Which 5 fictional characters would you want with you to save the world?" That is basically what I will be doing, but with a few changes. Here is what I will be answering.
Question:
Which 6 (hey, now I'm original) book characters would you want with you while trying to survive the Hunger Games?
Rules:
1. You can't choose any Hunger Games victors, because you would already know they would do well.
2. You can't pick characters from the same series. They have to come from 6 different series.
3. The new rules for these hypothetical Hunger Games are that you are on a team, and this team has 7 people, including you.
Okay, let's get started!
1. Hermione Granger. I mean, Harry's great, and has lots of experience with surviving, but a lot of the other people I will choose are more like Harry. Hermione would be great in the Hunger Games. Based on her actions when the Golden Trio was living in the woods and stuff in the Deathly Hallows, she would know how to get food and water, and she always seemed to be the most mentally stable when wearing the locket. She would also remind everyone of the Hunger Games rules. That might be helpful. She would be the one who, when everyone else slips into insanity, which isn't hard to do in a lot of these fictional situations, keeps her sanity and tries to help.
2. Tobias Eaton. He's already been through a lot. Surely he could survive in an unknown terrain longer that everyone else, and also help his friends out, right? Tris may be divergent, but she just isn't much more than that. Tobias has an air of "I have this whole situation under control" most of the time. I did consider other characters, and I haven't read Insurgent or Allegiant yet so I may not know all of them, but Tobias seemed the best choice from all the other characters I considered. He's really confident, and his attitude would rub off on the others and make them more confident, too. He would be a great addition to the Hunger Games Team.
3. America Singer. She is so determined! Nothing gets in her way. If she wanted everyone else dead, she would . . . I don't know, be possessed by some otherworldly creature of determination to get it done! She would also be a star at winning sponsors at the beginning, with her stunning looks and charm (well, most people think that). There are lots of characters I considered from the Selection series, like Aspen. First of all, he's a guard, and he is also really determined just like America. But why pick him when you can have the star of the series? Also, America has experience with things like stylists before the Games, thanks to her maids, and over-enthusiastic people teaching you manners, thanks to Sylvia. See, she's perfect!
4. Squirrelflight. Okay, so she might be a cat. But let's pretend she's a human, with all the same characteristics. Anyway, she would be the spontaneous decision-making person who acts on instinct, but Squirrelflight would also think before doing anything too extreme. She would also probably win over the crowd with her attitude. And just like Katniss, she would have no trouble lying to her friends and loved ones to keep them safe. Although if she were trying to blend in, her ginger fur - I mean, hair, since she's a person for now - she might have a problem, but it's not like she's afraid of getting dirty.
5. Ripred! First a cat, and now a rat? Yes, a rat, but also the best fighter in the Underland. Even though for these purposes, we have to pretend he's a human. He is the kind of person you want on your side, because if you are not on his side, you should just stay away from him at all costs. He is not the nicest friend ever, or the most trustworthy, or the most good-looking, by any means, but even if he makes fun of you or snarls at you, he is still your friend, and if you are nice to him, he will be nice to you back. You know, probably.
6. Rue. (She doesn't have a last name mentioned anywhere. I looked it up.) Rue is a great team member! She would never betray anyone, and she is a friend to all. She may be small, but she can climb to the highest tree branches, leap from tree to tree, and probably tell you all the dangers of being in a tree. She is Rue: the TreeMaster. She could be a lookout, and warn you of danger from higher up than anyone else in the arena could possibly go. Plus, she would just be an awesome friend to have, because some of the people up there are not very nice.
Okay, so my Hunger Games dream team is: Hermione Granger, Tobias Eaton, America Singer, Squirrelflight, Ripred, and Rue. Let me know who you would choose! Thanks for reading.
