Chapter 1- Hermione Mellark

No one at Hogwarts knows. But Panem is in a different country so why should they? If only they did. If only Ron and Harry knew the reason that I had to go home once a year. The reaping.

I'm on the train home. It's the summer holidays and it's the first time that I can actually see my brother, Peeta, since he went into the hunger games. And my best friend, Katniss. They have sent me letters since they have come out, but I wish that I could have been there when they came home. For the first time in history, two victors came out of the hunger games. They are known as the star-crossed lovers. Katniss- you may know her by the girl on fire. As always, I didn't want to leave Hogwarts, but there was a small bit of me that wanted to this year. I wanted to go home. Back to district 12.


Ron and Harry are talking about Quidich. I am reading the last letter that I received. It was from Peeta:

Hey Hermione,

So, I guess you want me to write to you and tell you about what will happen when you get home, huh? Well, Katniss and I were talking and we were thinking, how about you move into victor's village with me? Mom, Dad, Jacob and Bradley are staying at the bakery. I don't think they wanted me to come back. I know you did though. Mom gave me those daily letters you wrote to me. I missed you too. I still do. Katniss misses you as well. She said that she wouldn't of survived if it wasn't for you. I told her that no one would of gotten as far as the did in life if it wasn't for you, my little angel.

The door opened. I saw the bright glow of red hair and smiled. Ginny. "Hey 'Mione, is that a letter of Jacob or Bradley?" she asks. Maybe I should tell her. She is staying with me for two weeks after all. I look up and her and then look over at the boys. I should tell them all. I clear my throat. I open my mouth to tell them an- "Oi! Mudblood, I don't suppose you know how to get to district 12, do you?" asked Malfoy. I sigh. A line out of Peeta's letter catches my eye. From the part that I haven't read yet.

Some people from other districts are coming here too. You know, families of the dead tributes. I have got Cato's family as he is the only one I really had anything to do with. It is only his cousin anyway. His name sounds familiar though. I think you know him? Draco Malfoy.

I look up at him in disbelief. I never saw him in the great hall. Not in the private part anyway. They have a private area of the great hall so people from the districts can look at the hunger games and so families can grieve. "I don't suppose you are Cato's cousin Malfoy?" I ask. Ginny, Harry and Ron look at us clueless. He sighs deeply and nods. "Well, looks like we are going to be seeing a lot of each other over the summer since you are living with me and the best big brother in the whole world because he made me a promise and kept it…Oh don't give me that look Malfoy! Peeta Mellark?" He has a puzzled look on his face but nods anyway. "He. Is. My. Big. Brother." I say slowly. I look around the compartment. Everyone looks shocked. I heard Ginny sigh deeply. "Of course" she mutters. "It all makes sense. How you were always disappearing, crying, always on edge, it all makes sense… and how you were yelling Peeta's name in your sleep. All of it" she told us, getting louder at every word.


The boys, however, still looked shocked. After moments of silence, Harry spoke. "Wouldn't your name be Hermione Mellark then?" he asked. I could see the others all thinking about it, even Malfoy. "Yeah, that's why it is… Granger is my auntie's last name. My mother thought that I would be bullied if people know that I came from the district, especially our district. The letter I was just reading, it's from Peeta. Ever since him and Katniss have come out of the games, they have been writing to me. Katniss is my best mate. She is two years older than me but she is amazing… like a sister. Peeta has had a massive crush on her from ages. One time, my mother went out for dinner with her friends and my father said that Katniss or Gale could come around for dinner," she paused to take a breath. She was just about to speak again when Draco spoke. "Is Gale that Everdeen's cousin?" he asked me. I think. That is one thing that I don't like about the capitol, they make a lot of things up. I nod. I have been told by Katniss, Gale and even Peeta, that if anyone asks, I met Gale though Katniss as I had a sort of 'family' dinner with her. Well, she is like my sister. It must of happened when I were like 6 as I met Gale when I was 6 and I was his friend in minuets. Then I met Katniss though Gale and we became really close mates. "Anyway, I asked Kat to come for dinner after we went out hun- for a walk. We went back to her house to make sure Prim was okay and then we went back to the bakery. Oh my gosh, I would pay to see Peeta's face again! It was like something had hit him twice!" Ginny burst out laughing. She liked Peeta's personality from the hunger games. She walked down to the great all with me at like, 2 o clock in the morning as I wanted to make sure that he was all right.

Draco slid the door open a bit more and sat down. The way he sat, it reminded me of the way Peeta would collapse after we would race home. He would sit on the step, with his elbows on his knees for minuets and if I had beaten him, he would get up and tickle me. I smile at him. "So your from 12?" he asked me. I sighed, rolled my eyes and sat next to him. "No, I'm from one!" I mocked. He gave me a serious look. "Yes, I am from district 12, my brother is Peeta Mellark and I taught Katniss Everdeen how to climb a tree, happy with that?" I sort of yelled. Well, I must of said it loudly and I think that people could tell by my voice that I am annoyed. Well, they all looked scared to death so it was just a guess. After a few seconds, the train stopped. I looked out of the window and realised that we were at kings cross. Not long now and the I will be home.


Hey! So, this is my second story. I dont know how I came up with the idea. I just thought it was a good idea. It might be because I have been having night meres recently that me and Peeta were in the hunger games for the 3rd time and Peeta was like 'I can't let my baby sister fight someone from 2' and i was like 'Dont worry, i have my wand' so... yeah, might of been that. I know that it is different but different is good, right?

Please tell me what you think. It means a lot.

DISCLAIMER- I cant believe i am saying this! I DO NOT own Harry Potter or Hunger Games. If I did, well, just read this story and see exactly why I dont own them. I own the plot and that is it.

Love you all!
