DEDICATION!

I DEDICATE THIS PIECE OF VIRTUAL WORK TO MY BFF WHO HAS HELPED ME CREATE THIS!

ERAH-CRUSH! U R THE AWESUMEST PERSONA I KNOW!

~AT SCHOOL THE NEXT DAY~

~Percy's POV~

"So let me get this straight." Rachael said as she slammed the locker at school, "Yesterday, on your birthday you saw Nico, and he told you to dive in the River Styx. Then, a girl landed on your bed next to you."

She said the word "girl" with a grudge. That I could tell.

"And as you guys went outside a Minotaur attacked you guys. And she killed it. Then she faded away. Did I get everything right?"

"Yes, you did..." I responded faintly

"What was her name?"

"Katniss Everdeen…" I remembered how I had called her catnip and chuckled to myself quietly.

"Katniss…Was she pretty?" she asked as she looked directly into my eyes.

"I…uhh…didn't notice that…" I said

Truth was, yes she was. But I'm not going to tell her that. If its one thing she and Annabeth have in common, it's asking about how I think of other girls from my point of view.

"Yeah sure. Whatever. I need to get to class." she spat

So she just left me standing there and then that am when Stephanie came. Stephanie is a girl with sandy hair and brown eyes. She happens to also be a demy-god. I met her at camp and then I saw her on the first day of school somewhat lost and I helped her out. And that's how we became friends. She is the daughter of Apollo. She is one of the loudest people I've met, other than that, she's cool.

"Hello Percy!" she said ever so happily with her wide smile. Her smile and her sandy hair made her look a lot like Apollo himself. She even liked haikus, but she is good at making them, unlike her father.

"Hey Stephanie!"

"I know we need to go to class but I was wondering if you could come to my party." she said a bit nervous.

"When is it?" I asked

"It's on Friday. After school. My house. You know where that is, right?" she asked with a smirk on her face.

"Yes I know. I'll be there." I said too confidently

"Really? That's great! See you there! Oh, and bring your friend Rachael!"

She left afterward and I went off to first period. Stephanie unlike many people here has a huge mansion. With a pool and everything you can imagine. It was a gift from Apollo to her and her mother. I remembered it was Monday, so the party is four days from now.

Then I thought about Katniss again.

"Who exactly is that girl?"

~Katniss POV~

The next day after that incident I knew I was going mad. But for some reason I knew that I've met him for a reason. Than I stretched and got out from the bed I heard someone knocking on my door then barge in.

"Haymitch?" I asked

"You didn't come yesterday."

Oh. I forgot about that…I was too depressed to think about anything at that time.

"Oh…I'm sorry…I was….tired. Can we talk now?" I ask

"Well, let's go to the subway that's where Plutarch is. He also needs to explain some war strategy to you." He says.

"Sure. I'll be there. At noon?"

"Yes, at noon. Please come this time."

When he leaves my room I shower and change. Then after all that I go eat breakfast.

"Good Morning Katniss. I see Haymitch woke you up." my mother says calmly.

"Yes he did. So do you need any errands done today?" I ask

"Just eat for now and I need you to go take some ham and apples to the Hawthorne's' later on. And you need to go see Haymitch after that, correct?"

"Yes." I respond faintly

I sat down and started eating quietly and then the door opened and Prim came in with a girl with dark curly hair.

"Did you see his face when-Oh...hi Katniss! You're up! Oh and this is Marissia. She is one of the original residents from District 13."

"Pleased to meet you Katniss." she says as she extends her hand for me to shake.

"Pleased to meet you too Marissia." I say as I shake her hand back.

"Marissia and I just came for some bread so we can feed the 'birds'." Prim said happily as she went to the pantry to get it.

"That's great. Just don't take all of it." I say as she closes the pantry door.

"We won't!" she says smiling and they go walking out with one loaf of bread. Giggling as they go out.

Why is Prim so joyful and happy in a time like this? Its one of the few things I may never know.

Once I finished my breakfast I head off to the Hawthornes' to deliver the ham and apples. Wonder what they need them for?

~AT THE HAWTHORNES'~

"Here is your food, Gale." I said with a smile.

"Well it's my family's food also, Katniss." He said with a smirk

"Of course it is." I said.

I was about to bid him farewell when he said, "I have something for you. I'm sure you will like it."

"What is it?"

I was expecting Peeta come in and say 'Here I am Katniss' or the Rebellion to end at a click of a button, but no. I saw him take out a box covered with wrapping paper. As I was opening it I saw Gale was staring at me. I didn't say anything but still it makes me feel uncomfortable. Once I actually got to the box (after trashing all that pretty wrapping paper) I saw a bow and some arrows.

"I know it's not much but I hope you like it." he said

"Oh Gale they are beautiful."

They truly are. They are gilded in gold. I can go hunting now and it will feel like home. Not entirely of course but still.

"Wait. Gale is there even a place here where you can hunt?" I ask

"I really don't know. We can go look for one if you want."

"No it's ok. I need to see Haymitch soon so maybe later."

"Sounds good." he says reassuringly

~WITH HAYMITCH AND PLUTARCH~

"Okay so let me get this straight," I say on the verge of tears, "Peeta has disappeared?

A-Along with Johanna? And Enobaria is dead…?" I try to fight the tears, but I can't.

"He isn't dead as far as we know. But we don't know where he is either. According to spies there are Wanted posters all over Panem asking if you have seen Peeta or Johanna and to turn them in if you do." Plutarch says, trying to calm me down a bit, but he fails.

"But isn't half the nation in rebellion? Why would they turn in someone aiding them?" I ask.

"The posters aren't saying that they are rebels. They're saying that they are on another side that's not the rebels or the Capitol. It says that they are planning on destroying/bombarding everything. And that you are also part of the plan. And so far, A LOT of Districts are buying it." Haymitch says ruthlessly

"What? So now they are turning everyone on me?" I yell in anger

I don't know if deep anger and despairing sadness can be considered one emotion, but they are now.

"Not just on you Katniss. Us!" Haymitch spat

Haymitch is horrible at trying to explain touchy topics and Plutarch is kind of cold-hearted himself. I can't be around these two. So if Plutarch wants to explain his war strategy it will have to be some other day.

"I need time…ALONE!" and with that I stand up and leave.

At first I was power walking as fast as I could but then I felt water in my eyes so the power walking became a jog. Then I felt tears coming down so I started running. But then I felt a gush of anger and frustration along with a flood of tears overcome me and I swear I was running so fast people couldn't even see me.

After running for an hour I realized that I was lost. I was in a ...forest? I took out my bow and arrows and started aiming at trees at shooting random objects. Then I heard something in a tree. Then me being paranoid, shot at whatever it was.

~Percy's POV~

I'm out of school now but I really don't feel like going home yet. I'm still in deep thought over the Great Prophecy. I know I shouldn't be that concerned, but I am. Let's say I have the whole world's life depending on one decision of mine, and if I choose the bad decision, well it would be the end of our lives as we know it. So I end up going to Central Park and as usual it's packed so I go and try to find the calmest place to be in. Once I found it (like an hour later), I felt in a climby mood so I climbed a tree. Don't really know how I did it but I climbed the biggest tree I could find and I'm there laying down on a branch…deep in thought about everything, from Annabeth to Grover to Rachael to my mom and to Katniss. And Before I know it I'm asleep…

~CEBTRAL PARK: FUTURE

Oh…where am I? Why does my head hurt so much? And is that…Katniss? Then I see an arrow go toward me and sadly my ADHD fails on me. I see the arrow go through my calf and I yell in pain and fall from the tree.

"Pe-Percy?" Katniss says with some concern….?

"PERCY! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to strike you; I thought you were an animal!"

"It's okay…take me to some water…please." I can barely say that with all the pain I'm going through. I can tell she has been crying but I don't want to ask, after all last time I saw her we argued till she faded, which was a bad start.

"Why water? I need to take you to my mother or Prim. They are healers." She says with concern.

"Okay fine a healer! Just take me somewhere already! I'm in pain!" I yell out.

"Let me just take out the arrow." she says

When she takes out the arrow it doesn't hurt at all, surprisingly. Once she helps me up, she helps me walk with my arm over her shoulder.

We've walked for like 20 minutes when I realize I'm in Central Park but it's a little different and it's somewhat abandoned. That's when I ask her where the heck am I.

"Hey umm Katniss…Where am I?

"District 13."

"And where is that?" I ask because the word District 13 wasn't much help.

"Well…in the old world it was called New York."

"Wait. In the Old World?"

"Yes….the Old World is the time before Panem. The nation before us known as the United States. I don't know much about it because they never taught me about it…." she says softly.

After that there is a silence among us. And all I can think of is how I am even here. I must have gone through time or something. Then I remembered when I met her. A very bad start and I should apologize for that.

"Katniss…I'm sorry for when I gave you the impression of a kidnaper. I'm not I was just trying to help you not harm you. I'm sorry." I say

"It's alright. I thought about it for a while and I just knew you weren't there to harm me but to protect me from that 'beast', it's cause I have so much on my mind right now."

I see tears come down her face and I feel bad for her so I make her stop and rest.

She cries there for a while and after a while she leans on my shoulder.

"I-I'm s-sorry you had to s-see that…." she says quietly as she wipes her tears away.

"It's okay. I you don't mind me asking what happened?" I ask curiously

"Well it's a very long story…but let's just say the Capitol is the worst leader ever."

"Tell me. I want to know. But start from the beginning, like after the 'Old Time'."

I don't even know why I'm asking and how she is opening up so fast. I have a good feeling about this girl.

"A-Alright. Panem is a country made up of thirteen districts and a Captiol. Each District has its specialty. I'm originally from District 12, but it got bombed just like District 13 so now there are eleven districts. Each year there is an event called the Hunger Games…."

As she continued to explain everything from this boy named Peeta and Rue and President Snow and Gale, I began to understand her and now she tells me she has been betrayed by even the Rebels. In the middle of the story we get up and continue walking and to be honest my leg's pain went away. I have no idea if that's bad or good but it feels good.

Once she finished her entire story we arrived at her apartment which looked a lot like mine but like Central Park, different.

~Katniss POV~

As I led Percy up the stairs and still wonder to myself, why do I trust him? Why am I leading him to my house? And why did I tell him my troubles? And why did I cry in front of him? But I don't exactly regret it. I have a good feeling about him.

When we finally went up the stairs and reached my apartment, I opened the door and put Percy on my bed and went to go look for my mother or Prim. My mother was at the neighbors', chatting with Marissia's Mom. And when I told her someone is injured she excused herself to go help him.

When we got there Percy was unconscious and my mom immediately got to work. She didn't ask questions, which I'm very glad she didn't. Funny thing was when she was washing the cut with water, the cut disappeared. Which left my mom startled and I bet my face had a shocked look because I was.

Did this boy fake it? But I saw the arrow go through him and I took it out myself. My mom just shot me a look and asked,

"Katniss, what just happened?"

"I don't know. But he was injured I took the arrow out myself! I swear!"

"Its okay…but still…I don't understand what happened."

"Me neither. You can go back to Marissia's house. I'll take care of him." I said

"Very well." She said as she wrapped a bandage around his leg.

She was pretty shocked and so was I but then I remembered his words…

"Its okay…take me to some water…please."

I looked at him wondering,

"Who is this boy?"

And when I told myself that, he faded away.

~Percy's POV~

I wake up and fall from the tree again. Wait. Again? That was only a dream…

Then I look at my leg and I had a bandage around it.

"So then, was that real or not?"
