“So are toi ready for breakfast”, she asked?

I nodded my stomach hurt a lot, whether I was hungry ou nervous I didn’t know.

“We’ll be pulling in any moment now”, Elisabeth a dit when I walked out there, “better eat quickly”, she added.

I sat suivant to Pranet, and then Thayer came out and sat across from me and smiled lightly and piled eggs onto his plate.

I looked away and but hacher, hachage browns on my plate and took some toast, I didn’t want to eat I still didn’t feel too good.

Nerves? Maybe.

Pranet looked at me and whispered, “You okay?”

I nodded and said, “Just nervous.”

“Same.”

I didn’t believe it Pranet wasn’t scared of anything, unlike me; I was scared of the games, scared of dying.

After breakfast they take us in front of a TV to see the other tributes, we see us first, I see Phen hug Pranet and he goes up and then I go up fear in my eyes so much unlike Prince who went up fearless.

Then we see district two, the boy tributes name is Baylor he’s muscular, with far set eye, pale skin, with dark hair. He is dignified with close eyebrows that make him scary to me.

The girl tributes name is Jaylee she has brown hair and big brown eyes she seems to be eighteen, one of the older tributes, she’s pretty, tall, with plump lips. Dangerous, beautifully dangerous.

Then its District three, the boy tribute’s name is Weston, he has dark hair and big brown eyes and pale skin, he has a decent amount of muscle he walks onto stage and he seems to have courage but toi can tell he’d rather be any where else.

The girl tribute is named Elodie she’s blonde, short, maybe thirteen, with small blue eyes, and she seems nervous as she takes her place suivant to Weston she looks at him nervously and I can tell they know each other.

District four comes up and their tributes are Jensen the boy tribute with spiked blonde hair, he’s lanky, and of average height, I think he’s weak physically in that moment, but he’s only fourteen and taller than me so who knows, the girl tribute is tall with long, wavy caramel brown hair and golden eyes. She’s tan and beautiful and strong looking, plus than her male counter tribute.

District 5 is the most haunting reaping; they chose two twins from the district, Brylee and Bailey Waters. They both have blonde hair and blue eyes, the boys tall and lanky, and the girl is short and stocky. They look miserable I suspect I would too if I were going to have to fight against my twin.

District 6’s tributes are very different, the girl tribute, Aries Suess is short but muscular with deep set green eyes, her blonde hair reaches her waist and she seems determined unlike the male, Fadhi who had curly black hair, and a wide body and face. He’s weak toi can tell.

District 7’s tributes are Zachariah and Kenna, Zachariah has black hair that’s cut short and wide brown eyes. He seems quite short for sixteen. And the girl is blonde and sixteen too she looks strong and determined, but most of all smart.

Eights tributes are the weakest of all, Ian and Callista. Ian’s lanky and somewhat scary but quiet too quiet, and Callista is plump and seems stupid and clumsy all around, she even trips onto the stage.

District 9 is haunting too but not as much. The male is seventeen with black hair and brown eyes, he’s scary but then the girl is only twelve with curly brown hair, she’s small, and gentle looking.

District 10’s tributes Trent Dollyhan who seems tough and Jo Loch who is the same.

District 11 has Thane Michaels and Harlow Erikson. Harlow is skin with curly blonde hair and glistening blue eyes, she’s beautiful. And Thane has black hair and blue eyes and is just as handsome as Harlow is beautiful. Both seem strong tributes.

Then finally district twelve gives Halo Jones who has blonde hair and gray eyes and she seems like she’s gentle but the male, Jonas Nates seems smart, they’d make a strong team that people would need to stop in the beginning, but then again maybe people thought the same about me and Pranet.

We pulled into the station and they opened the doors and I stepped out with Pranet and breathed in the air and my ears filled with cheers and screams and I opened my eyes fully and say the large capitol and the crowd. It scared me so much I backed into Pranet who pushed me lightly forward, behind us came the district two trains.

Their tributes stepped out heads held high, they looked at us and got smirks, district one and district two always teamed up together but I didn’t want to be their allies at all.

I stayed close to Pranet till they divisé, split us up to go with our stylists.

The first step before the games, make us pretty before they kill us and laugh.

I walked in and my stylist and his crew stood these and said, “ah something pleasant to work with.”

“Make her hair wavy then put it up in the golden crown and leaves”, a dit the person who I assumed to be my head stylist.

“I’m Beau Indi”, he said.

He was handsome not too tall, not very short; he was muscular and stocky with windswept black hair, deep brown eyes, dark skin, and a handsome face. His arms were tattooed but he didn’t seem too much like a capitol person.

The other stylist did however.

The one named houx wore blue everything, she had blue hair, blue eyes, blue makeup, everything. She had breast implants too par the looks of it.

Then there was Blaze his hair was caramel colored but his eyes were yellow with yellow eye shadow around him, his skin was a golden yellow and he had tatouages going down his body.

And last was Lenny, he had dark skin with tatouages all over his body he had a beak like nose and red eyes, rather frightening he was.

“Hi”, I a dit to Beau as the crew did my hair.

“I figured I’d dress toi in or everything, you’ll be wearing a or dress, or make up, except for your lips they’ll be blood red, and toi jewelry will be or too.”

Ugh a dress.

They had me all dressed in two hours in a or silk dress, with or beads, crown, leaves, and earrings. My eye shadow was or and my blush was gold. My lips were a bloody red and I had to admit I looked good.

I walked out and saw Pranet then.

He wore a or suit, watch, chains, and golden eye shadow, he looked stellar.

They helped us on the chariot that was pulled par white chevaux in golden saddles.

They pushed me and Pranet on to the chariot and I had to hold onto Pranet’s wrist for balanced.

“Easy”, he a dit when I stumbled.

I nodded and got ready.

The horns blew and the gates opened and we went into the sunlight.

Cheers echoed as they saw us.

I smiled just a bit, Pranet smirked, he was made for show, he was handsome, standoffish, and the child of one of the most famous performers, he was a familiar face to the capitol.

He smirked; he always did that when he had some joy in that ever so stubborn cœur, coeur of his.

We went through the other gates and watched the other tributes.

District two wore tiled cloth.

District three had keyboard tee shirts.

District four dressed in tails and tritons.

District five came out in a sort of glowing material.

District six came out as a bus.

District seven was covered in mud and leaves.

District eight was a needle and string.

District nine came out covered in grain.

District ten came as cows.

Eleven came covered in berries.

And twelve came out covered in coal with a canary on their heads.

Honestly I think we looked the best but district one always did.

They then took us up to our quarters.

Elisabeth smiled at us and said, “You guys just looked stellar.”

We smiled at her.

She had such a beautiful smile, her games had been in sand dunes, she won on intelligence.

Instead of joining the careers and hiding in the sand dunes she went on her own to the mountains.

She was twenty seven I think and beautiful and judging par the large rock on her finger she was engaged.

“Are toi engaged”, I asked?

“Oh yes”, Elisabeth a dit staring at her finger “I’m moving to the capitol soon, he lives here so.”

I could tell par the look on Thayer’s face that Elisabeth was trying to hide the fact that she had been sold to a capitol man.

I looked at Pranet, he was handsome to be sold, and so was Thayer.

And who knew maybe I was too.

The quarters were big and at the lower level, somewhat saddening I like to be high up, feeling like I could fly.

“You kids better get to lit now toi have a long jour ahead of toi tomorrow, its training day, then toi have your private session the suivant day, and then the jour after that toi have your sessions with all of us, and then toi meet with your stylists, they fancy toi up, and then toi have the interviews.”

Great interviews and plus dresses.

Pranet nodded for the both of us and as we headed to our quarters he pulled me aside and said, “We need to decide now.”

“Decide what?”

“If we’re going to be allies”, he said.

“Oh I didn’t think that was in question. We are. Aren’t we?”

“Yes, have toi donné any thought on who toi want as allies?”

“I don’t want to be with district two I think they’d be willing to back stab us at any costs.”

He nodded and said, “Who do toi want then?”

“I thought maybe the district three’s, Jensen from four, District fives, Trent, Thane, and the district twelve’s.”

“We can try but that’s a lot of people, some may die in the blood bath but we can’t count on it, the twos will definitely try to get us tomorrow but we can try to get the ones toi want.”

I nodded, he was being so kind for once, and talking to me, was it because he knew one of us would die? ou both? I don’t know.
