A/N: Really sorry but updates probably wont be very often. I have school and revision and its a stressful year. I also want this to be really good so i'm kinda taking my time on it. Please R&R, feedback really does help.
Gale ran after Prim. "Prim seriously, stop running off. Katniss will kill me if she found out I lost you." He said panting.
"Sorry, I'm just excited!" He eyed her up and down.
"I'm sorry but Prim this is the Hunger Games we're going to. Not the blooming flower parade." Prim rolled her eyes.
"Yes but look where it's being held. It has to be different this year or they would have it in just another arena."
"I guess you righ-" Gale couldn't finish his sentence as the whistle on the train blew. "Come one." He said dragging her on board the train. "Made it." He sighed.
"We need to find a carriage." Prim said walking down the train. She pushed past a groupe of people clustered together. "Prim wait." Gale called after her, "Sorry." he grumbled as he pushed past a red headed girl and a blonde boy.
"Maybe we should find Katniss and Peeta instead. They might not know what's happening."
Prim shrugged. "Let them find us." She paused and stopped walking. "Only a few people come on." She opened a glass door and walked in. "Can we join you?" She asked. The few people in the carriage nodded. They walked in and sat down.
"Where are you from?" A girl with a soft Irish accent asked. Gale looked at her, she had long blond hair and she looked as though she was dreaming. "Panem." Prim said. The girl pulled a face.
"Is that in America?"
"Yeah. Kinda. It's a long story." Gale said. He thought back to the first train.
He was pushed onto the train and told to wait while Prim came. When she did the peacekeepers had them wait longer until the train started moving. When the train finally began moving they were given hot chocolate. Gale drank his immediately, he had had some with Katniss before and knew it tasted better hot.
"You must be wondering what's happening?" One of the peacekeepers asked. Gale nodded his head. "You're heading to England."
Gale spluttered his hot chocolate everywhere. "I thought it was destroyed?"
The peacekeeper pulled a face. "Didn't we all." He sighed and gestured for others to leave them alone. When out of earshot he looked at Gale and Prim.
"This is what's happening. You're going to a place called Hogwarts. Its this school thing. You're going into the Hunger Games but apparently its changed a little. Apparently you don't have to fight to the death with each other, you fight whatever the capitol and this school makes you fight. I don't know the details but rumours are going round that more than one person can win. That's how its different."
Gale looked confused. "How is that possible? I thought only one can win?"
"That's what I thought to. After last year, Snow was furious; I think this year is going to be worse than others."
"Nothing is worse than killing your friend."
"I wouldn't be too sure." Was all the Peacekeeper said. He then stood up and left.
"The Hunger Games sounds scary. Dumbledore would never let something like that happen." The girl said. Gale was too deep in thought to realize Prim had just explained the entire concept of the Hunger Games.
"They said it's different this year. Usually its 2 tributes from each distrcit, this year 4 from our district, which is distrcit 12."
"Why only yours?" A ginger girl, who had introduced herself as Ginny, asked.
"Our president Snow said because last years Victors came from there but i think its because we're being punished."
"Why are you beign punished?" A tall brown haired boy asked. His hair was messy and eh held a toad in his lap.
"Only one person is allowed to win but both Katniss and Peeta won last year. They tricked the capitol and now they're getting us back."
"Thats disgusting." Ginny said.
"Anything off the trolley dears?" Everyone in the carriage shook their heads.
"So tell us about Hogwarts." Prim said and Ginny told her.
"So magic is real, thats amazing!" Prim smiled.
"You really didn't know Panem existed?" Gale asked. The Neville, Luna and Ginny shook their heads. "They lied to us, why am i surprised?" He said. "I just wish i knew where Katniss was."
Neville suddenly jumped out of his seat. "Where's Trevor?" Ginny laughed.
"Again, you've lost him again?"
"No seriously Gran said I wasn't aloud to lose him again." He spotted his toad just as he jumped outside their carriage door. Neville groaned and went after him.
"Does he always do that?" Gale asked.
Ginny laughed, "Pretty much yes."
When Neville retured he wasn't alone, "I think you should put that thing on a leash so as not to lose him!" A brunette girl walked into the cariage with Neville holding her cat.
"I'm sorry." Neville replied and sat down.
"Ooh he's cute what's his name?" Luna stood up and started petting Chruch.
"His name is Chruch and I'm Isabel Lightwood." The rest of the carriage introduced themselves.
"You don't sound like you're from around here." Isabel said referring to gale and Prim.
"We're not. We are here because we're in The Hunger Games, it's being held at Hogwarts."
"Sound exciting." Isabel smiled.
"Why are you here? I've never seen you before." Ginny asked.
"Oh right-" Before Isabel could explain Simon walked in.
"Oh hey Simon come on in." Isabel gestured for him to sit besides her. "This is Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Ginny Weasley, Ron's sister and Gale Hawthore and Prim Everdeen."
They all waved at Simon. "If my brother sent you after me tell him to go away I want to have fun whilst we are away."
"This isn't a holiday Izzy." He said.
"So why are you here?" Luna said in her soft dreamy Irish accent.
"Oh yes sorry I was explaining wasn't I." Isabel explained about Magnus and the others. "Ooh Simon you know we've come at an exciting time, this year Hogwarts is host to these games. I can't remember what they're called now but Gale and Prim are going to compete along with Prim's sister and her friend Peeta. This is great isn't it?"
Gale scoffed, "The Hunger Games aren't fun. You sound like you're from the capitol."
"Where?" Simon asked.
"Never mind." Gale turned to look out the window.
"I don't understand why Dumbledore is allowing these games, after what happened last time." Ginny shook her head.
"What do you mean?" Isabel asked.
Ginny looked at Neville, "Don't worry forget I said anything."
"Are you coming back to the other carriage Isabel?" Simon stood up feeling as though they should leave.
"Guess so. Nice to meet you all see you later." She waved at her new friends and went back to the other carriage.
Ginny, Neville ad Luna looked at eachother. "Shadowhunters? The Hunger Games? What's going on?" Neville asked.
Luna and Ginny looked at eachother. "My guess is Voldemort. He has to be up to something this can't all be a coincidence." Luna said.
"Luna you do this thing where you say what we are all thinking without fearing or realising none of us want it to be said out loud. It makes it more real." Neville said to her then added, "No offence."
"Sorry, it's just how i am." Luna replied.
"Who's Voldemort?" Prim asked. Ginny and Neville flinched at the name.
"It's a long story." Ginny said.
"We have time."
