Daniel's POV:
I look through the small cylindrical glass cell I'm in. It begins rising.
Here comes my doom. I think sourly.
The glass cell begins slowly rising up and I squeeze my eyes shut.
When I open my eyes, I'm standing on a circular metal plate in a beautiful paradise. The 12 tributes are all in a circle around a giant metal building shaped like a wizards hat. According to Luna, its called the hat. Apparently there are weapons and potions inside, but we will all have to fight for them, and there's no doubt Chelsea and Draco will get everything. Looking around we are in a small lake. The sand surrounding the lake is dotted with palm trees and I can see a forest not far behind me. In the distance I can see a tall mountain rising up from the jungle. I look to my left to see a sandy desert and a green medow. Huh, I didn't think you could find a desert and medow next to each other. On my right is a volcano. I have no idea which way to go, but certainly not right or straight. Luna looks at me and nods towards the forest. Well, she knows what she's doing. I, uh, might not have read the instructions. Yeah, pretty stupid on my part. I look around and notice nobody has moved. Or at least nobody on my side of the hat. Harry, Hermione, Katniss, and Dudley could easily be long gone. I take a step off of the circle right as Lunas eyes go wide and she begins to shout.

Lunas POV:
"NO! DANIEL!" I shout frantically, but it is too late. Daniels body explodes, sending blood and guts everywhere. His liver lands inches away from me and I do everything I can not to barf. My barf would explode anyways. I think. As shaken as I am by Daniels death, I have to focus. I know Daniel wouldn't want me dead too. I have to win the games. After all, I have more knowledge of surviving than anybody el- I sigh as I see Katniss checking around her. Right. She's been to 2 Harry Games before. Or were they called Hunger Games? I do remember that the entire country is about bread, so HungerGames would make sense. I look around, making sure I have everybody. I hope its not creepy that I remembered everybody's names.
From Ravenclaw, well ....just me. From Slytherin there was Draco and Chelsea, from Gryffindor Harry and Hermione, Hufflepuff had Annabella Chaser and Pircy Jacks. Rather similar name to Perci Jack if you ask me. That's weird, Cho Chang had told me Annabella and Pircy were dating. Apparently their ship name was Pircabella. Back on topic, the two muggles were Katniss and Dudley and the two demigods were....

Hermione's POV:
I gasped as Daniel exploded into pieces. I held back a tear. Why were they doing this?! I sighed and looked at my Once-upon-a-time-and-never-again best friend Annabeth Chase. (Disclaimer: Uncle Rick owns Annabeth, not me) We had been best friends back when she lived in London. But Annabeth's mum, Athena, didn't feel like it was a good idea for Annabeth to live so close to a different kind of magic, so Annabeth had to move to Long Island. Then she ran away from home, hoping to get a cheap way back to London to be with me and our other friend, Luke Castellan (Again, Rick Riordan owns him). But, surprise, surprise, Luke had done the exact opposite. He and Annabeth, had been dating, and with all the grief, Luke snuck onto a flight straight to Long Island. He had been just getting off the plane when Annabeth ran up to the airport. Then they ventured together a bunch, blah blah blah. Something about Luke pretending to die and Annabeth dating some son of the sea or something. Yeah, we had caught up during training. I was just happy that, although Annabeth or me were garunteed to die, she would be able to see Luke again. Did I mention, he was a tribute?

Third Person POV:
"Tributes, you have about 1 minute!"
"59........58.........57......56.......55......54.....shut up I'm trying to count! ERM, 52, I think.......51........50.........49.........48.........47........46.........45........44........43.........42.......41.....40.......39.....Kronos, dang it! Would you just shut up? .....38........37........36.......35........34........33......32.........31.....GO! Go away!

Luke's POV:
" 39...Kronos, dangit! Would you just shut up?"
My face went pale. K-Krono- I couldn't say it, or think it.
"35.....34....33.....32.....31......GO! I wondered why it was so early, but I bolted off the platform, away from everybody.

Annabeth POV:
I gasped in shock. Luke sprinted off. NO! I am able to do nothing as his body flies into the air before floating limply in the water.
I fought back the lump in my chest as a cannon goes off. Luke would want me to go on anyways. I glanced at Hermione. We had both lost a friend, and a stranger.
She let a tear slip down her face. I could tell she was just as furious as me. Hermione saw me looking at her and nodded her head towards the hat. I was surprised. I knew what she meant. Hermione was going to try to find her wand. I nodded towards the forest but Hermione shook her head.
In other words, she was taking a 99.99999999999999℅ chance of dying when she went through a bloodbath for the hat. I had to go on.....without her.
" 13......12.....11.....10..."
I prepared myself to swim towards the forest
"9....8.....7.....6....5....4...3....2.....1.... "

Hermione's POV:
I signaled to Annabeth I was going to the hat. Realizing what I just did, I shook my head. I was NOT going to the hat. I just had to hope she didn't mistake my signals.
"15......14......13......12....11.....10...."
I got ready.
"9....8....7...6.......5.......4.............3....................2................"
As the numbers got closer to zero time began to slow down.
"................oooooonnnnneeeeee.....................................................GGGGOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I dove in the water, my hands clasped together tightly. The water was freezing, but that was the least of my worries. Happy that McGonnagal had taught me how to swim during the Triwizard Tournament, I sprinted towards the beach. The second I hit solid sand, I sprung up and bolted into the forest. I noticed a few low branches and climbed quickly up the tree, Harry at my heels. I took a quick look at which tributes were going into the forest with me. Katniss was running, while occasionally looking back at Dudley, who quivered on the platform. He still hadn't moved yet. Luna was riding....Threstrals? I didn't even know there were any here! Annabella Chaser and Pircy Jacks were, umm, kissing. Let's not go into too much detail. Where was Annabeth?! I looked around before finally focusing on the hat. Annabeth lay on the sandy beach, Draco hovered over her bloody body, a spear impaled in through her chest. Draco quickly darted back inside the hat. I pressed my face into my hands and sobbed. Harry put a hand on my shoulder.
"Hermione, why are you crying?" He asked gently.
"Annabeth-Annabeth is dead. And its all my fault! I accidentally signaled for her to go to the hat instead of the forest!"
"Annabeth isn't dead, she's right over there! He pointed towards the water."
I blinked. For a split second, i saw Annabeth was swimming underwater, perfectly fine and well. Then there she was, laying on the blood-soaked on the ground. It isn't real! I thought.
I looked around, noticing that Harry had removed his hand. He was staggering towards the hat.
"Ginny! Ginny, you came!" He screamed, running now.
"Harry! I shouted. "Harry, it isn't real, stop going over there, Draco and Chelsea will kill you!"
"No, its Ginny! GINNY! NOOOOOO!" Harry began sobbing. He planted his knees in the ground and wept on the sand. "Ginny, don't die! I love you!"
I kept out of the tree, racing towards him. I had no other choice. I tried incredibly hard not to look at Annabeth's dead body, which was laying right where Harry claimed to see Hermione. Hermione, its just an illusion. That's all. Just a boggart.
I finally reached Harry, then dragged him back towards the forest. Harry turned around. "Ginny?!" He looked at me, lovingly.
"Ginny, we need to get away from here." He said to me.
Oh brother, now he thinks I'm Ginny. I just went along with it.
"Harry, let's get, uh, Ron! He's fainted! Oh no!" I pointed towards where a flickering, but real Annabeth was, sobbing on the ground.
"RON! Come here!"
My vision finnaly cleared and I could see Annabeth, sobbing right where "Ginny" and "Annabeth" were lying "dead."
Harry tapped Annabeth on the shoulder.
"Sorry if he calls you Ron, he's a bit....sick." I tell Annabeth. She continues sobbing but turns around to look at me. "What did you do to Hermione, Draco?" Annabeth asks me, hissing.

Annabeth's POV:
I sob on the ground. What else can I do? I saw Luke die and Hermione killed by Draco. That little..........that little piece of schist. You don't go lower than killing. My. Best. FRIEND!
"Ron! Come here!" A voice said. I ignored it.
"Sorry if he calls you Ron, he's a bit....sick." Draco's voice said.
"What did you do to Hermione, Draco?" I hissed.
"Whoa, whoa,Annabeth, it's me. Hermione." Draco replied.
"Ron, I have bad news." Chelsea says in a VERY upset tone.
Wait a minute. My vision flickers for a second, and I see Hermione standing worriedly next to me while Harry continually screams "GINNY DONT LEAVE ME!"
A millisecond later I see Chelsea smiling over an invisible body and Draco sneering down at me.
No, its an illusion! I have to use all my willpower, but my sight flickers, then I see Hermione and Harry.
"Ginny, kiss me, I love you." Harry murmers into Hermione's ear. Hermione rolls her eyes, then kisses him on the cheek, just to shut him up. Harry faints, then Hermione turns to me and I begin talking.
"Hermione, its the mist! I know you don't know what that is, but its bad. We have to get away!" I say.
"I know, but its not mist! This is a boggart, and I need my wand to destroy it. I don't have my wand though,so let's get Harry away,then RUN." She replies.
I nod and grab Harry's legs. Hermione grabs his arms. Together we use all our strength to lift him off the ground and walk as fast as possible. I grunt and look down, only to see a tortoise walking faster than me. Great. The mist continues to follow us, and I see my boyfriend, Percy, laying dead on the ground. We continue walking for the next few hours until Hermione spots a cave. Together we haul Harry into the cave. Me and Hermione sit down and gasp for air. I offer to go outside and collect leaves for beds and such. Hermione is about to offer to guard, but Harry wakes up and volunteers instead. Neither of us complain; we need our sleep. I walk outside and look around the grassy floor. No leaves, except in the trees. I'd climb the trees to pick leaves, but who knows what's up there. I continue on my quest for leaves (pretty lame if you ask me). I suddenly trip over a branch. I thud to the ground just in time to hear a song playing. An image is projected up in the sky. Faces begin appearing on the projection.
Daniel Martinez:
Ravenclaw
I gasp. This is a remembrance of those who have died. I close my eyes respectively and look up again.
Luke Castellan:
Demigod
A tear slips down my cheek as I see a smiling Luke in the sky. The tears flow faster when I see
Pircy Jacks:
Hufflepuff
Annabella Chaser:
Hufflepuff.

The music and projection stop, but I continue crying. After about 5 minutes, my tears die down. I wipe my wet eyes. Getting up off the ground, I run towards the cave. Again, I trip. Honestly, how stupid can I be? I turn around to pick up the branch, but it isn't a branch. It's far too perfect. The stick is about 11" and cut into a perfect cylinder.

A\N: okay guys, I spent SOOOOOOOOOOO long writing this, and it will be at least a month before I update again. Yes I know this is an extreme cliffhanger, but that's how I try to keep the chapters. I'm going on vacation in a few weeks, so I won't update for a long time. And before you wonder why I can't just update before I leave, I, um, may or may not have been procrastinating with my summer reading. (Hangs head down in shame) I would really really REALLY love it if you guys can tell people about this story. If you guys get this story to 1,300 views or more, I will write a bonus chapter in the authors note. Anyways, my fluffy pies, I shall see you in the next chapter. You guys are awesome.
