Hunger Games 3

"Tomorrow, 8-o-clock, we travel forward. Get everyone together, no need for anything except unique belongings." Katniss answered.

"Everyone go get some sleep, we'll need it before our time-travel to the post-dystopia." I said, and I got up, along with Thalia, and we went to the Zeus cabin to get some sleep.

---------------------------------------------Next Morning-----------------------------------------------

I woke up to Thalia's arms cutely wrapped around my torso, head on my chest. I had an arm over her and the blankets were almost over her head, but not quite. I carefully shook her awake.

"Thals, c'mon. We gotta go. It's already 7. we gotta pack." I said, rubbing her shoulder.

"Ughh.... 5 more minutes!"

"I'm sorry, hon'. But we can't! We've gotta go pack for time traveling." I said, sitting up slightly, making her mumble.

"Nooooo! Please......! I just wanna be warm, and snuggle youuuu! Please, Rey." Thalia mumbled tiredly.

"Up we go!" I said, swinging my legs over the side of the bed, and picking her up bridal style.

"Gah!" She shouted, grabbing onto my neck. "Reyyyyyy. Don't do thatttttt." She mumbled, snuggling back into my chest.

"C'mon! Up! Let's go, sparks!" I said, trying to be as calm as possible.

"Finneeeeeee! Let's go." She said, moving her legs down but still standing there hugging me.

"Thalsss. I hafta get ready too! Please! I few get ready sooner than later, I can give you more snuggles!" I try to persuade her.

"Ooh! Ok!" She says, and pulls away. I go to my dresser, and grab some jeans and a Camp Jupiter T-shirt that stays in this cabin, for whenever I stay over, since Thalia is the only Zeus kid at camp. She goes and puts on some leggings under the long t-shirt she wore to bed, then goes into the bathroom to change into one of her "Punk Isn't Dead, You Are" shirts that I got her more of after we started dating.

I had called up Hylla, and asked her if she could get Zoe and Pheobe, and have them here by 7 30, so me and Thalia had around 10 minutes to spare after we packed some spare clothes and got ready. We lied back down for a little, me stroking her hair, her almost asleep again, since we had stayed up late last night talking, like always.

I heard a knock on the door. "Come in!" I said, sitting up a little.

Hylla walked in, Zoe and Pheobe following. It was odd to see them in normal clothes instead of their usual outfits.

"Hey. Who-? Oohhh." was Hylla's reaction upon seeing me laying down with someone. "So, you finally told her, did you? And she felt the same?" At this a pink crept its way to my cheeks.

"Hylla! It wasn't EXACTLY like that...!" I said, giving her a look. I had told her a few months ago about my crush on Thalia, and she had 100% fangirled over it. I struggled to regain some ground, but then I remembered. "How's it going with Kinzie then? You finally confess as well?" I said, smiling a bit.

It was Hylla's turn to go red now. "T-that's not your b-business. But for your information, she did, not me. So, yeah, yeah. Go ahead and fangirl over me now."

Everyone else, except Thalia who had fallen asleep, had been listening to our conversation, picking up on all the little things shared between us.

"Sorry, guys. We should probably head out." I said, waking up Thalia yet again. But at least this time it didn't take 20 minutes.

We walked together back to the lake since I assumed that's where Katniss wanted us to be. I was correct, and I saw them standing by what looked to be a... silver pool? (Like the Flat Trans in Maze Runner, don't ask why I'm doing yet another crossover.)

No one else was there yet except Katniss, Haymitch, Peeta, Gale, and Johanna.

"Hey!" Hylla said. "I'm Hylla, this is Pheobe, and Zoe." They both waved at her.

"Hello. Hopefully, the others appear soon, Beetee will be activating the portal in 10 minutes, and it will only last around 3 minutes." Katniss said, checking her watch and looking around.

The others came over the hill in the next two minutes, bags in hand.

"Okay. So. The way this will work, is we go in, up to 2 at a time, and stay still. It will whisk us away to the future. Just a heads up, coming here, I felt like I was gonna barf, just so you know." I was grateful for the heads up. Thalia had a tendency to get motion sick.

Hazel and Frank went in first, then Magnus and Alex, Will and Nico, Hylla and Sam, Zoe and Pheobe, Mallory and Halfborn, Conner and Travis, Austin and Kayla, Percy and Annabeth, Piper and TJ, Peeta and Katniss, Leo and Katie, Gale, Haymitch and Johanna, and finally, me and Thalia.

"Ready?" I asked.

"Let's go."
