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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAFE86IQqeNw
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAglGMrgifqU
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 444Please respect copyright.PENANANpcOVu4E7d
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 4.444Please respect copyright.PENANAJnwVpAT7uM
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAzZRUuob9IX
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.444Please respect copyright.PENANANjavSK0K0Q
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.444Please respect copyright.PENANASc9pBfrQ6m
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAVyHAscBNPA
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.444Please respect copyright.PENANAqBylRK5pkv
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.444Please respect copyright.PENANAihHvoVKYjF
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.444Please respect copyright.PENANAu7RMOku3gW
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''444Please respect copyright.PENANArsB51NH7M5
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''444Please respect copyright.PENANAwvHDoKQO9i
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''444Please respect copyright.PENANAZrZXDh9YaS
I nod and let them take me to Carter.444Please respect copyright.PENANAhNYurWOJkV
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?444Please respect copyright.PENANADbuIrI25Fe
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.444Please respect copyright.PENANAEYGOpnu6fR
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.444Please respect copyright.PENANA9gum4KnOVO
'' 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.''444Please respect copyright.PENANAIvz8lQikER
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.444Please respect copyright.PENANA88PHDoegWC
'' 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?''444Please respect copyright.PENANACcMmbhMiTC
'' No.''444Please respect copyright.PENANAYAPSJ16XoL
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''444Please respect copyright.PENANAE0Rc1KXkP2
'' Yes.''444Please respect copyright.PENANA4heiKfa5RD
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAOkjbSEhrb0
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?444Please respect copyright.PENANAw94wl3NHXH
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.444Please respect copyright.PENANA6jyxkdOTwo
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAnuGYL4bQVH
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAsSqbdzkx26
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.444Please respect copyright.PENANA5DvXBVaNJk
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.444Please respect copyright.PENANAdvrwlZZzJe
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAmh908vjvVA
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.444Please respect copyright.PENANAq80lLzgd97
'' What you doing Finnick?''444Please respect copyright.PENANAVb4OyXo94j
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAnmdXz4NrXk
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.444Please respect copyright.PENANAUJI1xsAkmZ
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.444Please respect copyright.PENANA45AX7SdIKP
'' I'd better go.''444Please respect copyright.PENANAEX3rMbJxoa
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.444Please respect copyright.PENANAN6mLH1jY0V
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 444Please respect copyright.PENANAtyNxn05luv
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.444Please respect copyright.PENANA0TtiK6kcbS
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAcizp1fmz5C
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.444Please respect copyright.PENANAhZdikoEmmL
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAuQgzdBaq3c
Next task: Body makeup.444Please respect copyright.PENANA0YcCJz7nFo
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANATPXOcyyVLX
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANA0GHVKOmXMa
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!444Please respect copyright.PENANA9mxBkb8rvg
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAafAe5zvGgJ
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAVpkFcv5YV3
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.444Please respect copyright.PENANAHOgIFepbI7
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.444Please respect copyright.PENANAfynq8YWeZM
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.444Please respect copyright.PENANAsetkzleluj
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.444Please respect copyright.PENANAH8hdZf1eiI
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.444Please respect copyright.PENANAiWWTKrxwAC
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.444Please respect copyright.PENANAFygmv7G7vS
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.444Please respect copyright.PENANAY2WFYfJ7le
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.444Please respect copyright.PENANAbfk2rkTeTf
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.444Please respect copyright.PENANAs8NUdfW2aM
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.444Please respect copyright.PENANAdNeglNzPSg
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAaGrSdneIBL
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.444Please respect copyright.PENANA9CBs6iWkjU
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAkEFlwkgXoB
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.444Please respect copyright.PENANAuil6t4PKSI
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.444Please respect copyright.PENANAMA4h2rA3Vd
'' Why?''444Please respect copyright.PENANANugnkEpm96
'' It calms down your nerves.''444Please respect copyright.PENANAtfl3hsF5jh
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.444Please respect copyright.PENANAOcRZoiJDmx
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.444Please respect copyright.PENANAB6XqWl5qaI
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.444Please respect copyright.PENANAEbritDTpS7
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?444Please respect copyright.PENANA2EgaW9VhBK
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.444Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8vICQVvJ1
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.444Please respect copyright.PENANAJy3txWPqny
'' 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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAbyTQA7wUi8
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAYw0XPMQSSf
Nice one Carter. Nice one.444Please respect copyright.PENANAS7OQzlCFCT
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAN4i2BIongD
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.444Please respect copyright.PENANA1rBbhnKBkW
It is.444Please respect copyright.PENANAZPvzwPqi2q
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANA2qs8tcqNN6
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.444Please respect copyright.PENANAzMUZp9MrB0
I hope this works.444Please respect copyright.PENANAls0kQRO24t
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.444Please respect copyright.PENANA1wUfiHyu9E
'' 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.''444Please respect copyright.PENANAcgk25N15L7
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.444Please respect copyright.PENANAwgSPU1ENV4
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.444Please respect copyright.PENANAm9DWJkP27z
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.444Please respect copyright.PENANAW5KNTSkyuR
'' Me.'' I said.444Please respect copyright.PENANABf9JKIbPAD
'' Great!'' He said.444Please respect copyright.PENANAu8MSQSAwYe
I blushed again.444Please respect copyright.PENANAGx7Cfs5uSq
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.444Please respect copyright.PENANA8LyiVv7w3W
One edge closer into the Games.444Please respect copyright.PENANAhPGku1qoqp
