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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOW0QPu0zqV
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup2Swcn7Qa
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrsYV0LTf8
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 4.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGh0Y42taM
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9bxMtX7FQ
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZNeHHGHaq
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYEEscmHan
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFaXDuyTLk
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlad7yzjD9U
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhpwNpeUrh
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDffI5hTrnD
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRtJEgvo7R
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MduW52CU3
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8re3Uj3eOr
I nod and let them take me to Carter.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ontXnpRw1
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?406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x6e2ABN4l
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafUAT1rYUc
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZrNFrertP
'' 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.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkUudV1gbJ
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH14x3iXPFf
'' 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?''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GbEOwOc1e
'' No.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj4WPfBoNn
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztyjglW2ne
'' Yes.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8STo8iuVyx
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HzhN7dsX1
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?406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgaIq0rFU5
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeQj1HzQ3c
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02LOIiyTKy
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo9Q1f49jr
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvLs18xrYL
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57lVwQrQtC
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiv91AEFYk
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1v9DbLHww
'' What you doing Finnick?''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkg4tQO8EfQ
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpLu2fY4Z1
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRCSZ4SNd4
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJ7yu0B4Xu
'' I'd better go.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBOXAQ7kpT
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7pWnm9WBG
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5YbNG7Ym2
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw4lWvjviu
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pt00yyY58
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UPMfn06sy
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqJwL3tUQQ
Next task: Body makeup.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUVS8UBTBu
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsEsp9PGsz
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlbn8P7W8n
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqdjt4QAt7
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUpJzpcvzP
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXDsTCqcKw
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04QvCf0bqp
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb50Hi49DLV
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGff3EtSZhk
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqSEYXIzmB
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefP0xInWQr
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWacRakJVxV
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztIHaj9UZH
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNT9ea30YM
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPhs9wlalX
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYS19UBTcA
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17VqvwBOAn
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnfYLBiREJ
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTecxokTFH
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmMvZLHnB6
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oRtccY9f9
'' Why?''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKURdTXRm8
'' It calms down your nerves.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmXU3C5K46
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98GsHxt4Jj
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolCT3hJrul
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2eN9jmytv
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZFZSvTzoW
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5v6Y8uHhP
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQZD7ryKQj
'' 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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHK0YVKh1K
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRnXBTavWv
Nice one Carter. Nice one.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa1pKXXcpV
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7ClZqk7Lc
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwXLO4OUZF
It is.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FQeMLF6Gz
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHV9GcqJsN
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.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TmrtPudDR
I hope this works.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnTwLME41E
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaObpJC3ZI2
'' 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.''406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRLj5LLFQg
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZtIPMHZLA
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4e8Ydwx1Q
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkSRufNss7
'' Me.'' I said.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLEvkidbZU
'' Great!'' He said.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PdN40bIFn
I blushed again.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPWUIEnDd8
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M7TnSNxF9
One edge closer into the Games.406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TuwkJngWB
