Hey, everyone! Hope you enjoyed the first chapter! Are you wondering what's going to happen? Is Robyn going to live? Will Sarah be in the Hunger Games? Read on to find out... ;)
All I remembered about the trip to the capitol is being forced into the train, drugged, and chained to a bed. That's right, chained. When I woke up, there were three peacekeepers keeping watch on me. My head was pounding, and my throat was dry.
"Excuse me. Can I get a glass of water please?" I asked dryly. One of the peacekeepers exited the room, and returned several minutes with a tall glass of water.
"Where am I going?" I asked, testing the chains around my wrists and feet.
"You are on a need to know basis Miss. Richards." Replied the second peacekeeper.
"And I need to know where I'm going." I retorted, smiling sweetly. He nodded his head and didn't answer. To pass the time, I started humming quietly.
"Could you please stop humming? Quite frankly, it's annoying." It was the same peacekeeper I kicked in the nose.
"And quite frankly, your voice is annoying." I said closing my eyes, "and by the way, nice nose." I heard him huff in embarrassment. After what seemed like hours, the train finally came to a stop, and I was led outside. The air was crisp and cold, and I immediately began shivering. Someone handed me a sweater, but I handed it back. I wasn't in the mood for fake hospitality. A black car with tinted windows stopped outside the train, and I was ordered at gunpoint into it. My right leg wasn't even in the car when it started driving. After a few minutes, the car stopped, and I got out. I was in what looked like a parking garage. The air was stale and smelt of car exhaust and dust. The moment I stepped out of the car, more peacekeepers grabbed my arms and led me inside. They took me through the twists and turns of the hallways, up and down countless flights of stairs and a very awkward elevator ride.
"Everything you say and this room can be used against you, Miss Richards." Said a short, balding man with wrinkled and glasses set on the bridge of his nose.
"Um, okay..." I said, clearly confused. He nodded once and opened two huge mahogany doors. Inside, there was a huge desk, neatly stacked with pictures, and papers. The man sitting at the desk beaconed me into the chair in front of the desk.
"Robyn, I presume?" The man asked. He had a shock of white hair, and snake like eyes.
"Uh, ya. That's me." I replied, my cocky attitude quickly disappearing.
"What you did today was unacceptable. Do you know what they do to people who disrespect the Capitol?" He asked, an evil glint in his eye. I knew very well what they did to people who disrespected the capitol. They became an Avox. Someone who went against the Capitol. As punishment, they cut out the traitors toung, rendering them unable to speak, and they must be servants to the people of the Capitol. A punishment worse than death in my opinion.
"You will become an Avox, and you will wait on us hand and foot my dear." He said, smiling wickedly. I very suddenly felt faint. A million thoughts rushed through my mind; having my toung cut out, not being able to protect my family- my thoughts were cut out by the unnerving voice of the President.
"Take her to the medical room, please." He ordered, not looking up from the document in his hand, "see you soon, Robyn." He said, his snake eyes meeting mine. A chill went up my spin and for a moment, I swear I could smell blood.
