A/N:

makerboy13 :Number 3 is going to be one hell of a challenge…poor Percy..he must be hating my guts right now…:) and no, Jason and the others aren't with them. Only Percy and Annabeth are transported to Panem. However, there are some other characters going to be introduced.
gamerkid137 : Thanks…:)
Guest : why are you giving me that :)
hera98 and awesomeness : Thing you should know about me is I get ideas when I write. So…it's pretty spontaneous. So I can't promise any Percabeth…and besides, I won't be able to do it as good as Uncle Rick.
ArianaandXaia : one of the designs I have in mind is the typical red telephone booth…O.O too cliché?
Darth Bane123 : Dude, this is the Fanfiction version of Catching Fire. :O
bambino01 : Spot on!
the quill12 : I pity him too. Like I said, he must be hating my guts right now…I'll try not to disappoint you. But quick question: Have I? wondering so that I can avoid it later..^^

Disclaimer : I can't even drive…need I say more? :P

Percy's POV

" Hold up. Back up for moment. You're saying we're in Panem?"

" Yes, Annabeth. I've been telling you that for the last hour : we are in Panem," I say patiently. Oh boy, she sure as hell didn't believe me when I told her about Panem. She actually thought I made it up! Hah! If only I'm that creative…

" I don't believe it," she murmurs as we crept out of the woods slowly and stealthily. Don't want anyone to catch us now, do we? Especially since my face is probably familiar. " And which district did you say again?"

" District Twelve."

She stops so suddenly that I walk into her and sent the both of us tumbling down, ending with us in a tangled heap. " Get off of me!" she gasps, kicking me off.

" Ow!" I cry out in pain when her leg hit my soft spot. " Watch it!"

" Sorry!" she gasps. " Just get off of me! I can't breathe!"

Ouch. " Hey!"

" Who goes there?"

We both froze. Afraid to move even an inch.

" Hey!"

We both look at each other for a second before scrambling for cover.

" Wait!"

I froze.

" Who are – " the girl with the dark hair and grey eyes stop and stares at me, her mouth gaping open when I turn around and face her. " Percy?"

I grin.

" Quit staring at me already."

" I can't. It's just…."

" Too complicated for your frozen brain to process?" Annabeth asks coldly. Katniss finally averts her gaze to Annabeth and studies her for awhile. " Done sizing me up?"

" You're pretty cold for a pretty face," Katniss comments.

" Yeah. I hate it when someone tries to ruin things for me."

" What am I ruining for you?" Katniss asks Annabeth politely.

" So, Katniss. Did you just get back from doing some hunting?" I interrupt their (extremely cold) conversation before Annabeth could say something else. " Why are you still hunting? You won the Games! Heaps of money and all." Annabeth shoots me her killing gaze. Sorry, babe. I do NOT want to have to watch the both of you wage World War III. As if I don't have enough wars on my plate.

" Oh, it's not for me. It's for Gale and his family."

" Oh. How is Gale now?" I ask her. Truly, I am pretty anxious how he would react to me. I mean, I've always known he had a crush on Katniss so…let's just hope he doesn't hang me in one of his snares. Do you get what I am saying?

" He's working at the mines now," she says bitterly. " I don't know how he can stand that place. I can get some sort of mental breakdown if I spent too much time in there."

" Looks like you've already have," Annabeth comments, nodding towards her arrows and bow. " Going to hunt some boys now?"

Katniss stares at Annabeth, her face reddening ( I don't think I want to know whether it's from anger or embarrassment). " What is your problem, kid?" she demands. " You are definitely getting on my nerves now."

" Do you really want to know my problem? Really?" Annabeth shoots back, now she's actually on her feet. " My problem is the fact that – "

" She's my girlfriend, Katniss," I quickly say. Annabeth stops in her tracks and Katniss' jaw drops. " Look, there's a lot of explaining I need to make to you but I don't think it's pretty safe here. I think we'd need to move into the woods deeper to – "

" You've got a girlfriend?" Katniss asks me, looking at me straight in the eye. " Why didn't you tell me about this?"

" I just told you!" I protest. " Look. Meet us at the usual place tomorrow at noon and I promise I will explain everything – every single thing – to you."

" What makes you think I'd do what you just asked?" Katniss asks me coldly.

That caught me off guard.

" I gotta go. I have to drop today's game at Gale's. See you around, if I'm lucky." She gets up to her feet and walks away, not turning back even once.

" Where are we going to stay?" Annabeth asks me, breaking the awkward silence. " I mean, that Katniss is sure not to invite us to stay with her."

" We'll just set up camp here in the woods," I say, breaking my gaze on Katniss' retreating back. " Let's go back farther than the fence. I don't want to meet with anyone else for now."

" Okay," Annabeth says and, after hesitating for a moment, laces her fingers through mine. " I'm sorry I lost my cool just now." I could just summon a grim smile. " It's just…I don't want any competition now that I've got you back."

" Oh, I don't want to be competed for. I haven't forgotten about Rachel or Calypso yet, you know," I remind her. She glares at me and my grim mood instantly disappears and soon we're joking about our childhood as we traipse through the woods, looking for a perfect place to set up camp.

But as we settle down in for the night, I could tell that I am in for a rough time here.

Not to mention that I am probably going to end up on the Capitol's hit list if they knew I am somehow still alive.

Oh, nuts.

A/N: OMG! I think I just disappointed you guys! I am soooooo sorry but I have quite a writer's block right now but I am going to try my best to do better for the next chapter. Again, I am sooo sorry…..T.T

Oh, and I'm not sure if Annabeth sounded OOC but I think that is really her. I mean, she didn't actually claim Percy when Rachel and Calypso had a crush on him but her attitude pretty much made it all clear that Percy is hers.

Uh….do I actually make sense or am I just talking gibberish?

Oh, and btw, what do you think of the cover photo?
