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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sS6V4Lznb
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv22fdwB7Ap
'' Let's get you prepped up!'' 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO2ZisdH2d
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 4.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHIcepOHHr
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxREAuvqoz
'' Last one honeybee.'' Orna said. I grit my teeth. Ri-i-i-ip! I sigh in relief.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQnsMR816j
'' Now we are going to shower you all over!'' Saffron excitingly giggled.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN92iJXlWF
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwptfP7Tb9
'' Aww I wish Carter would let me do the makeup.'' Elbora sighed. She glared at Orna.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0sE5STCmI
'' Well sorry he picked me!'' She huffed.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANRSuALXum
'' Who's Carter?'' I ask. They stopped bickering but Saffron stepped in.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsZgXYagr4
'' Your stylist!'' Saffron explained. '' One of the best stylists if I say so myself.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaWrrWqcOR
'' Does Bay have the same stylist?''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5V7YsrBIu
'' No he has Casey but she's terrible. You have the best stylist!''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLfHamopdN
I nod and let them take me to Carter.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmNMtMo9VA
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?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg7tbMvqFp
'' Congratulations I would say for being picked but you weren't picked. You volunteered.'' He laughed.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF7ULeXiNM
'' Yeah most people congratulate me.'' I said.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxXORBn0nX
'' 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.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrp9TJn4sD2
'' She would die straight away.'' I bantered.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVGVOsnj4z
'' 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?''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsu66WjAxql
'' No.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCLQj0gPwp
'' Ooh I have an idea! Do you like dresses?''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K4V9cpOY3
'' Yes.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38YmlsC6aZ
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpdMCdXQ81
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?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7iiIzoykb
After rerunning this in my mind for several times, he came back.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XlXoky3qr
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qHbToFN1w
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW1az0rujb
'' Woah careful dears!'' She squeaked.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeBxAj5xCY
'' Where's the makeup department?'' I ask.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAoy2p7DfE
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSclsAT8ZJI
'' Hey Rain, Bay.'' He nodded at Bay. He smiled his legendary smile.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCH7Qfzc2Q
'' What you doing Finnick?''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lfPdkTcnZ
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE1BD4JphI
'' We'd better get in.'' I broke the awkwardness like always. He nods.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdzQOpQC0O
'' They're waiting.'' He lead us inside the Full of Mirrors Room.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi7z8wFDMz
'' I'd better go.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUawfWhv9B
'' Oh no Finnick stay.'' Elbora came out of a screen.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcELtcnU7M
'' If you want me to, I'll stay.'' He smiled again. 435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNBrYEaSNa
'' Great just stand over there.'' Orna came through while Elbora pointed next to the mirror.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXgL1Gtrqc
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMQeVRtDKQ
'' Let's get started!'' Orna squealed after Bay was by his mirror. It seemed he needed makeup too.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnA47ytj0I
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1S0XIVz9w
Next task: Body makeup.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAbpXy58W1
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwua6Wmp6O
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1MhFmAh57
I now put on my dress and as Finnick said, I love it!435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1I8zKnVo4
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6oUYLXL0S
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkIoNvd9i0
Finnick came back in. He gasped at me.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8ienwa8pk
'' Rain, you look beautiful.'' He said. I blushed so much I had to look down onto the floor.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5EAZ0wBfr
'' Thanks.'' I managed in the end.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnncjz2DhU
'' Chariot Time!!'' Shouted Saffron.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMpcDsV0Ms
'' Let's go,'' Finnick looked at me.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUJRGRn1Ar
'' Your Chariot is the 4th one at the front.'' Orna reminded me.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfEZiG6kdt
'' Okay. Do we need to find Bay?'' I ask.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ6NcK0ZKB
'' No dear because he is right here.'' Elbora said.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GPnYknK0H
And standing by my screen is a person I don't recognize.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRToqphDSt0
He's still Bay. But doesn't look like him.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvXqyu8e7a
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFX1IP9ZTPG
I open my mouth in shock. He looks like Poseidon. But without a beard.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHyn5NXxyL
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfT3fZSxMIv
'' How'd we get here huh?'' I said to the horse.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAdUQe4Lz4
'' Hey before I go, do you want a sugar cube?'' Finnick asks.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7bBYVNTuA
'' Why?''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CjWZhHKl2
'' It calms down your nerves.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyv3sSp6lq
'' Okay,'' I shrugged and took the cube.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzCqrrIU7f
Sweetness explodes in my mouth and I sigh in relief. I crunch the cube and settled on the chariot.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoIU5Ck8nv
'' Good luck Rain Wolfe.'' And he slipped through my fingers again.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWybK7Xgdk
I frown at myself while Bay gets on the chariot. Why can't I get a word out before Finnick slips through my fingers?435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOQJv2s0oI
'' Good luck sis.'' Bay says.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNpu2OKFTP
'' You too bro.'' I hold the front of the chariot. Really tight. My fingers are starting to turn white.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYkFJc4bKN
'' 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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcaPKpHp2m
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrl0l6UMWRe
Nice one Carter. Nice one.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Di4NOacV
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI8G3qHNqr
I whisper, '' Bay raise my hand and hold it so the people can see.'' He shrugged which I hope is a yes.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkTXCrhs12
It is.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakSnYmRYUP
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZipcDCFnyv
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.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGplYD4ayKL
I hope this works.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOiLYpqNRx
The horses are stopping. Drums stopped thudding. The City Circle silent.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I0d7vvnSN
'' 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.''435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaIq2KeRT9
And then the audience claps and we are rode away. After we stopped, Carter, Casey, Laurette, Finnick and Valora came rushing to us.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanlgMrrNhg
'' Nice show.'' Carter said.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3u0G5hlaN
'' I like the hand-holding, who thought of that?'' Finnick questions.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uB6BrNaGv
'' Me.'' I said.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnt9kP21TKY
'' Great!'' He said.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgcXuHOSCm
I blushed again.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr45Vbhlye5
'' Lets get to the Training Centre!'' Valora squeaked.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCtTQwSQzi
One edge closer into the Games.435Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9syEoQ392
