I'm ushered into a room that looks like a hospital but with Capitol Citizens ('' They're your Prep Team Rain.'' Valora explained) and styling tools instead of syringes and medicines. It's too clean.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mBzTGaFtE
'' Hiya Darling. I'm Orna and this is Elbora,'' She pointed to a girl with bright pink bubblegum hair and lilac skin. '' And this is Saffron.'' She pointed to a boy with long green hair and red lips and eyes. They are disturbing. Orna has blue and purple hair which is okay for me.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA4m5QnAiF
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1MuythjxE
Why do these people speak in such a high pitch? Why do their jaws barely open when they talk? Odd vowels, hissing... no wonder people mimic them back in District 4.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10qcLBgSyn
Ri-i-i-ipp! They are waxing my legs and hair all over (apart from the top of my head!). I brace myself again for the last sheet of wax is pressed onto my calf.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzU08aJxbR
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsdPByS6Hw
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Imzervzhu
Well I know one thing: Men have to see girls naked and women have to see boys naked. Great. I am stripped down and pampered and soaped and brushed and showered until finally I am ready.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwW8QnUiSJ
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyKbhKgIoe
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfC9ODBJTL
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDmm21ne8z
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28bB8J20Gm
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNZPjSln6M
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p10SSOx1w
I nod and let them take me to Carter.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMENuAK0Ye
For what feels like hours, he arrives. I can see he is wearing blue lips and eyeliner. Is this all the range in the Capitol? Coloured lips and eyes?454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpQ4PB8PKp
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRZwEFiWcj
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFNkoOgxUZ
'' Well I'm not going to bother to do that. There are not many young volunteers. Why volunteer? Your sister could have all the glory of winning.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpr6yYID5RF
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38Q0H80pk6
'' Well how brave.'' He finished. '' Now you are from District 4, correct?'' I nodded. '' Well fishing hmmm... Don't suppose you want to be in a net do you?''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3J9mJuHKt
'' No.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n4oP8N8qV
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiFHqRU4iJ
'' Yes.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDb9Bt1XZX
'' And blue would suit you... Yes I think it will be great.'' He turned to me. '' I'll be right back.'' And he ran off leaving me deserted in the room.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMft8qI30Pf
I hope this costume will NOT look like a fish. Or a mermaid for that matter. Why can't the Capitol people be normal? Why not like looked spoilt?454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZQYqRX4bj
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5f0gMyOcp
'' The idea is lovely according to Carter so... lets get sewing!'' Casey said. She sounds like she is from District 8 and not the capitol which is great.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOgG9h7wbn
'' You two,'' Carter pointed at me and Bay, '' You go to the makeup department. My colleagues will be there.'' Me and Bay looked at each other. '' GO!'' He demanded. We scuttled off bumping into Valora.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI3poOSEc2
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1KWGTTSmu
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkCt5IrLVb
'' I'll show you.'' She took us into the biggest room yet which is covered with mirrors. Finnick was standing by the doorway checking his reflection. Laurette was inside the department messing around with the makeup. Finnick looked at me.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eHXQUXunC
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv1mjiNlns
'' What you doing Finnick?''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoAnBYJGgs
'' Umm, thought I'd see the makeup and costumes. I've seen the clothes and they are beautiful. It would suit you.'' Awkward silence breaks the conversation.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcHeOC3INQ
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqA5hKF8SH
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVrsXQ41a0
'' I'd better go.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeQlNYScur
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfzfOi6k37
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnMo9x14qr
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHAwQPgsgw
'' Ready Rain?'' She asked me. I nodded and walked over to the seat and mirror. I glanced at Finnick and he was looking back at me. He mouthed 'good luck'. I nodded and mouthed 'thanks' back to him.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHabyzoviR
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpqNQljOcl
After a long hour of makeup (and Finnick's '' That looks great on you!''), we finally got my look. I got my eyes, my glittery lips and my nails complete.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblBGSxuXDW
Next task: Body makeup.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyr0wAsUab
Finnick had to go out for my modesty obviously. It's a shame really. I need to stop thinking about him. After cursing silently, Orna starts the body makeup.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOtCCZMoIL
Blue glitter is sprinkled over me and blue and sea-green makeup is spread over my shoulders and legs. My body feels as though it has been decorated for a party.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy6XGkhvM1
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMvXtzSoXw
It brings out my curves around my hips and brings out my breasts a little. It drapes around my back and comes around my ankles. I have glittery blue shoes. And my sparkly ginger hair is braided into the most difficult plait I have ever seen.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3R65QTEcsX
Last finishing touch a starfish and shell clips slid through my hair to clip my fringe to the side. My natural curls touching the middle of my back.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPXNfZDK8X
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2dm8rfuIz
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVwAbh26eD
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavyXuHw4kk
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VsSRfJMXE
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3L31I5AyOq
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdT3nlEtHA
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNo75QbfwX
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniWQvhECwO
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRXQDjQXje
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsww3vlKJtV
He is wearing a blue wrap around him and blue makeup around his eyes and arms. He is also holding a trident. His brown hair has now blue streaks and is barefoot.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0H2SgUKzE
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7He8Wn4TUl
'' Well lets go.'' He said. I nodded and it looks like Finnick is trying to hold his laughter. I giggle silently walking to the horse.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCOxFH50Gq
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMuGSANpya
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOSX18Elz6
'' Why?''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQMFwe2jD2
'' It calms down your nerves.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCPwjnWYsG
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lENlKjRsS
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdbo9GaKff
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77ohhjcmnX
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV6Y5HRnlq
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAv2m1kUS6
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUjccIRmyH
'' Tributes on Chariots. Tributes on Chariots.'' I clutch my silk dress. I hold Bay's hand. Boom! And we're off! The horses are clapping to the beat of the drums. Thump, thump, thump, thump. Goes the heart and the drums. I glance to the side and I see Finnick at the front of the seats. His posture! His grace is impeccable! And he is staring at me. Great. I change direction and look straight at a camera.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8KxQ1P153
I can see a beautiful face. Blue eyes and lips with red cheeks, glittery hair braided into a tricky plait... I am a mermaid. I think this is for the Tributes to say that I am weak.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifqOpwbAsw
Nice one Carter. Nice one.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVER7jIzSt
Well anyway we are near the mansion now. I can see President Snow poised but sturdy on his balcony. He is looking down upon us and I try to straighten my posture more. I look at Bay. I have an idea.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW3bWzFqcB
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVvvbZAD5y
It is.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGpZMT5l1X
He raises my hand and shows it to the crowd and we smile. Brother and sister united. But that's not what I am doing this for.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMxaAwz4Mh
This is a hint to Snow that we can't be separated. Bay or me don't want to die. If we show that we want to stay together as a family, he might find the loop in letting this game's have two Victors.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEKIohyd6y
I hope this works.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctOYfgGza5
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXDsPugIa6
'' Welcome Tributes to the Capitol. For the two weeks you stay here, you will live in a life of luxury. But you train and have interviews in between. You train to get a better chance of winning the Games and live in luxury. And most importantly I should say May The Odds Be Ever In Your Favour.''454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlESR95VaJa
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyUpd7pas1
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UB35u4uYs
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPCyK79T4V
'' Me.'' I said.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMtmRYrF1N
'' Great!'' He said.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWqLHkpcMl
I blushed again.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4qPaUCdBL
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKHpslf2cW
One edge closer into the Games.454Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGGVXMeKwm
