My emotions are everywhere. Part of me is sad that Ginny got such a low score, but part of me is glad she did. The better my score is to everyone else's means that I will most likely get sponsers. With these care packages, I am more likely to stay alive. But Ginny is depressed, she doesn't talk to anyone after the announce of the scores, not even at dinner, she just pushes the topic onto someone else or makes a very quick answer. She finally says something at night. We are both lying there very tired, then suddenly:
"Goodbye Harry." She says, then she starts to weep. Poor girl, she thinks she is most likely to die. But she is clever, persuasive and especially nice; she could talk anyone into being an alliance with her. With her conversation starter, I drop the conversation, I don't speak a single word and sleep. I wake up finding Ginny has already gone to breakfast, I notice that her pillow has tear stains on it, a lot of them. She obviously cried herself to sleep. I go down to dinner. Me and Ginny don't make eye contact, we don't talk to each over or anyone else. I am sitting there with sadness and I finally pay attention there are no more toasted waffles. It makes sense now, the Capitol obviously placed them there to give District's 1-12 a chance, they thought if they removed our training, it might even it out. I carry on eating anything I can, until I am full because I wouldn't want to die from Hunger in the Hunger Games, would I? I also drink a lot of water. Then finally go to the toilet before my heart beats as I am supposed to be in the arena in a hour. I stare at the clock until quarter past 12 when we will go into the elevator, the elevator goes to ground floor, but instead of the door in front of us opening, a secret door behind us opens, behind the door is a huge hovercraft ready to fly. Me and Ginny are both escorted into the hovercraft and took to our pods. Both my heart and the time are going faster and normal. It feels 5 minutes when I get into the pod room. Inside, Matthew, my stylist is sitting on the table waiting for me. When I walk in, he jumps off and hugs me straight away. He also attaches a strange pin onto my Jacket. He says it is a very special pin that Dumbledore gave him for me to have in the games. He then covers me in the coat. I look at the pin on my jacket, it is a circle inside of a triange and a line going through both of them. Then I hear a women's voice announce I need to be in the tube within 20 seconds. I slowly head to the tube, my heart racing, deciding whether I should head towards the center I get into the tube. I am 10 seconds early in the tube, I stand there for these 10 seconds thinking about the arena; will it be based on our world? Hogwarts? What will it be? Then the door on the pod closes, I slowly start rising.
My eyes adjust to the light, I see a golden horn in the center of us all, we are in a huge circle, about 80 yards away from it. The gold of it shines into my eye, I take in the rest of my surroundings. I look to my left and right and notice I am in a post-apocalyptic village, it has shops, bars and sweet shops. I look to the center lights on the floor with floating text above them, the one closest to me says 'Stupefy' on it, these are the spells we run in to, then I remember. My wand, where is it? Then I look in my pocket of my jacket and find a altered version of my wand. The countdown still hasn't started. My eyes are still adjusting to the light. Then I notice where we are: we are in a post-apocalyptic version of Hogsmede. Then I notice that at the horn there are better spells, such as 'Avada Kedavra (Killing Curse)' and 'Crucio'. Then I see Voldemort, who just happens to be next to me, smile at the centre. I know he is obiously going there, I need to stay alive at all costs. What ever it takes. So I tell myself to get 'Stupify' and 'Protego' and nothing else. Then run to Foxface (Marissa) and Katniss, wherever they are. I scan the distance for them, they are together directly opposite me to the left a bit, just so much I can see them past the Cornucopia. Then the 60 second countdown starts.
"60. 59. 58. 57." A low voice announces. I still look around for different spells and weapons I could use, I notice Alohomora next to Avada Kadavra, shall I go for it? Especially if I get sponsers, what will I do with them if I don't get that spell. The countdown gets down to about 30 seconds and all I can hear is my heart beat and the countdown. In the last ten seconds, I take a stance. Then he announces the last couple of seconds.
We all hear a loud gong.
We all run.
I run to the golden horn, noticing that everyone is running faster than me, I decide to conserve my energy and pick up 'Stupify' and 'Protego', I run to Foxface and Katniss who are now hiding in the trees and are waiting for me. Then someone casts a falling spell on me. I trip up, I throw my wand off in the distance. Then I notice the boy from District 5 has thrown a knife at him. He dies. Then the guy from District 5 sees me on the floor, I get up, run for my wand and get it. Then he throws a throwing knife at me. I cast Protego on the knife in a way that it flies high into the air. He throws two more at me and misses with both. His ignorance cost his life because when I deflected the first knife, it flew into the air. I hit it in the correct time and position that it just happens to deflect into the air and land in his forehead. He falls to the floor. Then I look at the rest of the bloodbath. Voldemort gets the Killing Curse and kills about 5 people with it. He casts it on me, I cast Stupify on him and start a priori incantatem, our wands connect. Then I let go and cast Stupify on him, he flies back into a wall of the Three Broomsticks. He is slowly getting back up. I run to Foxface and Katniss as we leave the bloodbath, I notice Ron and Hermione have held hands and ran in the opposite direction to me. Luckily they are not dead. As I run to Foxface and Katniss, I run into 4 other spells, 3 are water production spells and 1 is a food production spell. I get to them in a matter of seconds and we enter this Hotel, it is deserted, for now we are safe. I sit down next to Katniss and produce a glass of water using my first water production spell. We all each have 1/3 of the glass.
"Do you think we are safe?" Foxface asks.
"For now, yes. We need to keep moving though, we are too close to the corn." I answer with. She nods in agreement. We look out of the broken window of number 5 in the hotel. We scan the distance, we see a few people. First we see Peeta, from Katniss' district run past us. We also see Draco, exit Honeydukes with tons of candy/food, he is eating a toffee covered apple. I come away from the Window, looking at the rug, it has stone and pebbles all over it, the bed is covered in disgusting webs and dust. We even see a few spiders, but I kill them with Stupify. We stay here for about 5 minutes when everyone is ready to look around again. Me and Katniss look around for water. Then I finally remember, I knocked Voldemort out next to the Three Broomsticks. There must be at least butterbeer in those taps. But none of us want to risk going there. Voldemort could be lingering around there. We exit the hotel, we enter Honeydukes, we take tons of food and still look for water. We need extra liquid, we can't live off the extra 2 I have in my wand. But none of us are particularly thirst now. So we take the food, put it in a bag that Katniss got and keep moving. We look for another hotel further out, but we don't find anything. Then we see a wood area. Me and Katniss smile at eachover and we enter the forest. We all climb separate trees, but very close to eachover and we rest. Then we see the sun start to fall. We hear two gongs. All of us look at eachover. Then we notice, the arena changes around us, we are no longer on trees, we are lying on Tables, that are floating. We are in a observation tower. Then I hear the anthem music.
"Oh, the fallen tributes." She whispers. All three of us jump off our floating tables and look out the window into the sky.
It says all the tributes that have died, I count them and see who has died at the same time.
The guy I killed with Protego, 5 people I dont know, Susan Bones, Lavender Brown, Seamus Finnigan and Glimmer have died. So 10. 10 people have died.
"Where were we and where are we now?" Katniss asks.
"We were in Hogsmede..." I say to her. I look out the window to see where we are.
"We are now in...
Hogwarts!"
