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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAEpIkxsemcO
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAsnt1vod4Px
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 514Please respect copyright.PENANAKQCjFyuekL
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 4.514Please respect copyright.PENANAUyaMZ2TN3c
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAZJDTLrytru
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.514Please respect copyright.PENANAin5YXXnhZ1
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.514Please respect copyright.PENANArJ4B5tPPvU
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAwcc76Ikhx9
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.514Please respect copyright.PENANAuULQchQrsh
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.514Please respect copyright.PENANAWQQuUrYfTL
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.514Please respect copyright.PENANAgdydfgWce8
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''514Please respect copyright.PENANAnke9SWdqA4
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''514Please respect copyright.PENANAm8lV3HvzpI
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''514Please respect copyright.PENANA8J0txqzzds
I nod and let them take me to Carter.514Please respect copyright.PENANAStQdwCkJkv
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?514Please respect copyright.PENANARAnyMImpf1
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.514Please respect copyright.PENANApOo8rbrYEr
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.514Please respect copyright.PENANAjStnSp8AS9
'' 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.''514Please respect copyright.PENANAqzI7Efa7Se
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.514Please respect copyright.PENANA4g7vgQQfus
'' 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?''514Please respect copyright.PENANAA8wWwjvDiP
'' No.''514Please respect copyright.PENANAo7qd1p1nfJ
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''514Please respect copyright.PENANAKbHEY6F16t
'' Yes.''514Please respect copyright.PENANASm5Rzt7S5A
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAytvtgmkjLx
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?514Please respect copyright.PENANAzwYkRKtvrl
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.514Please respect copyright.PENANAtYAGAA4QTB
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAaBQdew30H3
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAAkjxDO8WNC
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.514Please respect copyright.PENANAwrNH8ENJJ0
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.514Please respect copyright.PENANADDsWzR7KFp
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANA320ByUck5x
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.514Please respect copyright.PENANAqvjzq2qlzQ
'' What you doing Finnick?''514Please respect copyright.PENANAG2ve2HjTYm
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANA5G2GlddqJ3
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.514Please respect copyright.PENANAKLAGtbHhvT
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.514Please respect copyright.PENANAOk75ia7ptD
'' I'd better go.''514Please respect copyright.PENANAUTMh2cIwmr
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.514Please respect copyright.PENANAsPj6d8VPS0
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 514Please respect copyright.PENANASyiBf9Mi4t
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.514Please respect copyright.PENANAwosoRRyzVe
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANArJkRq8bLRR
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.514Please respect copyright.PENANAgBDJsetJa6
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAg1PLmwPJVk
Next task: Body makeup.514Please respect copyright.PENANAyvwyeVkSfo
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAcQR5cVHG3v
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAZEhTvKYhF8
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!514Please respect copyright.PENANALs12P3kxIl
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAKL19ABYbCo
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANApoGCSQcwI2
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.514Please respect copyright.PENANA60jJoOMchc
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.514Please respect copyright.PENANA07lTf5GtVJ
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.514Please respect copyright.PENANA3XjV17VmM9
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.514Please respect copyright.PENANAWsAfWZzlBS
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.514Please respect copyright.PENANAqpJR4VFfS5
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.514Please respect copyright.PENANAbFDCp9jZpW
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.514Please respect copyright.PENANAnu6PsJ90eh
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.514Please respect copyright.PENANAsb51qhTzVH
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.514Please respect copyright.PENANAhNJb3cWJZN
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.514Please respect copyright.PENANA0uC0rNaHCi
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAHrH7dtcyQv
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.514Please respect copyright.PENANAzjKpASEVf9
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAWrCC20ifdz
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.514Please respect copyright.PENANAnVtzqlORqi
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.514Please respect copyright.PENANAn8gZNBBfsA
'' Why?''514Please respect copyright.PENANALzBcKClXoz
'' It calms down your nerves.''514Please respect copyright.PENANAKf0trpyLxR
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.514Please respect copyright.PENANAMjtUOIVTLz
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.514Please respect copyright.PENANAHZH94WCbTO
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.514Please respect copyright.PENANANpTbzUcgk8
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?514Please respect copyright.PENANAPodDz9l6nJ
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.514Please respect copyright.PENANAZU9GqNXZfQ
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.514Please respect copyright.PENANAMLIX1ZIVMG
'' 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.514Please respect copyright.PENANANuaTORmrM5
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAusxPcdMiux
Nice one Carter. Nice one.514Please respect copyright.PENANAcP9BdwyEdV
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANA7MzhhPkG4E
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.514Please respect copyright.PENANACW0Z4WHBWw
It is.514Please respect copyright.PENANAaVQcxVnQnu
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAmXAetK7VnV
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.514Please respect copyright.PENANAtz3BaWGLAJ
I hope this works.514Please respect copyright.PENANATZXDd5mc0t
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.514Please respect copyright.PENANAjU3VfSySzF
'' 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.''514Please respect copyright.PENANARfJfImsXf7
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.514Please respect copyright.PENANAOUld16Tofr
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.514Please respect copyright.PENANA8DbOfsQ0Bm
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.514Please respect copyright.PENANAobSElHfUtz
'' Me.'' I said.514Please respect copyright.PENANAVRqQhzoKye
'' Great!'' He said.514Please respect copyright.PENANA6MV2tF2GED
I blushed again.514Please respect copyright.PENANAwjpm6b0qy0
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.514Please respect copyright.PENANAdq15cJgXj7
One edge closer into the Games.514Please respect copyright.PENANAj4uRcGDbCq
