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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfSQrWF4rq
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLhPR2qtqA
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp9Zj46d7G
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 4.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcYS6lhAPJ
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWefjRhMKr
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n9cC1iaQ1
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7obE9MszF
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeC1sMiHKib
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDIpz4GLHY
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZdEgO2NPw
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MJx43KxnU
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxjPuoEKlz
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVKFh1daUO
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjMXyF4dCu
I nod and let them take me to Carter.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzom7nwI2b
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?430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhB3THKqJ6U
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAcXutk6YX
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln0JRloGqB
'' 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.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzewTsRYXU
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkC55kfmYV
'' 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?''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sXF3Xsinz
'' No.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKnoza84Gq
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx44D9xRf27
'' Yes.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1fGtFeAMV
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmIjIWQEFd
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?430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Wb9R4dvur
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6HW7cQWeK
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2gi6NstO3
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8CLGsEtHj
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4SIjCxeSH
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBn3anVcLZm
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUqZ7wpYea
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxYSLdRDoT
'' What you doing Finnick?''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaZFU9tpoc
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2Buo7WQDx
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27DE3udOhd
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspYB3MD8Ob
'' I'd better go.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RkMZIBVCY
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGPM8n2z2w
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyOgO1n1Qh
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtQXnGtiEd
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClUks9Lkdu
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7ESDH6hPC
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOdPwm6E2E
Next task: Body makeup.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOCcPDNHTo
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgCH0S50Fu
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPelajMzyA
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpuoL3UPRg
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreENbwbOH6
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xbss0zjt8
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ4MTcJHuL
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u98QPl0tC
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGxgju1a7e
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtq7ziYmbQ
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrylJ6ZFCbQ
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID3eiP3sL1
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXOG4XApfJ
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3wDpHQAOk
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMcrv3fA5d
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98zlZPDFcN
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxBxD0HY1a
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡML0KPedSZC
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfcrulYjcv
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR4eAM6KXB
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaACNsdteL
'' Why?''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb38G1nEPpj
'' It calms down your nerves.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ81xgscrnU
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFk2XW1HD8
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKItwHzUwGQ
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kbRnzRqQu
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JYDH4kylj
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkFrFq6O9H
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8XSrrwcN3
'' 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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueWWkd447x
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynGZPnHpci
Nice one Carter. Nice one.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfhr0ofe4I
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZdjnqGA1k
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzmDwXJhur
It is.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdA8nvDsOoH
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGggvKXniO
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.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxII42i62g
I hope this works.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q3L2cYs09
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h5oFatXgj
'' 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.''430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEM9OIbfTc
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAIbpsyKWf
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ChsYxI0C8
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTln3Svq2ty
'' Me.'' I said.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv0IZmilPx
'' Great!'' He said.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItM7m8yFws
I blushed again.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUK5LXiDnb
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmK9gFrX8Y
One edge closer into the Games.430Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkAZbK6gP4
