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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAycR6Kh0xU8
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAMgA1d0UJNM
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 411Please respect copyright.PENANA1uTzzAM8Xr
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 4.411Please respect copyright.PENANAzyIe7mADbH
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAl8UXslfKvc
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.411Please respect copyright.PENANA192Gvnmrxr
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.411Please respect copyright.PENANApmN1EHDwLT
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAcpop6QBaxG
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.411Please respect copyright.PENANA6TPZqUh1YM
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.411Please respect copyright.PENANAGybqQ6Qr1g
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.411Please respect copyright.PENANALDNHdN7fSO
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''411Please respect copyright.PENANAAEEG5pIrK6
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''411Please respect copyright.PENANAD9Q2T6u4Aq
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''411Please respect copyright.PENANAHRljHMSTRO
I nod and let them take me to Carter.411Please respect copyright.PENANAF9AzxGKcjl
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?411Please respect copyright.PENANAhonecYyDz9
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.411Please respect copyright.PENANAFmO57MDZTX
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.411Please respect copyright.PENANAVqRqLsjsEL
'' 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.''411Please respect copyright.PENANAHe0jgKC1qx
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.411Please respect copyright.PENANAP6Op5lcGAq
'' 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?''411Please respect copyright.PENANAkl3WxPWvcP
'' No.''411Please respect copyright.PENANAIxVeflaheT
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''411Please respect copyright.PENANAsb0nGVu0AA
'' Yes.''411Please respect copyright.PENANAOUYNraUWQ3
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAY8MvzXT0by
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?411Please respect copyright.PENANAlVvjQQGUBT
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.411Please respect copyright.PENANA1ftSsUYeUr
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAhEAc6Qa8G2
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAjtqjx8LCzP
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.411Please respect copyright.PENANA0JbE6ukiXT
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.411Please respect copyright.PENANAl9JJuXC2Rq
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAxHW4mIVbsO
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.411Please respect copyright.PENANARA1cyTPbBc
'' What you doing Finnick?''411Please respect copyright.PENANAeVJ67N4vhU
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAkEGuVt426N
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.411Please respect copyright.PENANABwkBQbZ8FF
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.411Please respect copyright.PENANAihXpZ56rYB
'' I'd better go.''411Please respect copyright.PENANArOTek0vC4B
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.411Please respect copyright.PENANA2DR8m3MXAJ
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 411Please respect copyright.PENANA4r3h8REIoX
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.411Please respect copyright.PENANA7mPJigMSyg
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAzY1YAGfPnf
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.411Please respect copyright.PENANA4IWbGYUaYF
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAPAUVHdvJUc
Next task: Body makeup.411Please respect copyright.PENANAUWOEDbuemM
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAasAzZTs5FO
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAM4sPZwsesy
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!411Please respect copyright.PENANAT8K7Cg11L6
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAwM8Sx2aYuH
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAunp4Xuiy1Q
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.411Please respect copyright.PENANA0UBvJh4Sfp
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.411Please respect copyright.PENANAIZ8T78ciLL
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.411Please respect copyright.PENANAMfxREWFrZE
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.411Please respect copyright.PENANAL8XShsJVqF
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.411Please respect copyright.PENANAkChrVp2aYz
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.411Please respect copyright.PENANAX5STicb9jz
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.411Please respect copyright.PENANAKyn4LlI5Td
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.411Please respect copyright.PENANAvGV7e5MAlg
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.411Please respect copyright.PENANAyPFmePTsmL
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.411Please respect copyright.PENANAmx4PSj0kvM
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANATw9DJZKdTu
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.411Please respect copyright.PENANA1t3XP9nMnJ
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANASj5aStkSzH
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.411Please respect copyright.PENANASkQTPTqR1d
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.411Please respect copyright.PENANAcdDt2cXK7y
'' Why?''411Please respect copyright.PENANAI8zBG9ZY4K
'' It calms down your nerves.''411Please respect copyright.PENANAddentrpwBz
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.411Please respect copyright.PENANABcWdS2N6Rw
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.411Please respect copyright.PENANATWX8WXDtRg
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.411Please respect copyright.PENANAWPBha0QuKL
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?411Please respect copyright.PENANAk78r2IJdbt
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.411Please respect copyright.PENANANxjCX6CaCR
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.411Please respect copyright.PENANAteAIo1Q1jR
'' 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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAmAQiiayf6W
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAK4uV3cLILw
Nice one Carter. Nice one.411Please respect copyright.PENANAnXv0bQd1XN
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAKilgVdNgml
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.411Please respect copyright.PENANApYQQjFi1LY
It is.411Please respect copyright.PENANAkvkmoS9qac
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANA2UodZTgGrq
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.411Please respect copyright.PENANAYcnjPWsKEt
I hope this works.411Please respect copyright.PENANAEoyYTzBLv3
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.411Please respect copyright.PENANAhy58Vte7W6
'' 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.''411Please respect copyright.PENANAQyqsm4koKb
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.411Please respect copyright.PENANAd697a8igXx
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.411Please respect copyright.PENANAiOal1TwzP0
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.411Please respect copyright.PENANADPGm2Z2x0I
'' Me.'' I said.411Please respect copyright.PENANANA0KJxPLWr
'' Great!'' He said.411Please respect copyright.PENANAcfEVweXAh6
I blushed again.411Please respect copyright.PENANA3KBqPZwyhA
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.411Please respect copyright.PENANAOvtsO0EZf2
One edge closer into the Games.411Please respect copyright.PENANAhSMMe9RTNM
