On the train
I sit down on a soft velvet dinning chair and stare at Thomas menacingly. He is of course doing the same. About three minutes later our mentors Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark enter the cart and start to talk to us.
'Hi there I'm Peeta and this is Katniss. We will be your mentors. This Quarter Quell is very special because you two could both come home! You need to work together and we're going to help you with that.' Peeta says all of this flawlessly. Katniss however doesn't say anything and instead sits down next to me. I look at her and she looks at me, we seem to understand each other so that's how I know that she will help me.
After dinner I am led to my room where I just collapse on the bed without going into the bathroom to get changed, but as soon as I fall asleep the nightmares come.
I am walking through a forest when I see my dad being hung by President Howard. Blood is everywhere and I am then transported to the Hunger Games where I witness Thomas being murdered. It is horrible. I start to scream for them to stop hurting him but instead they just kill me slowly and painfully. It is agonising so I just scream.
'Angelica wake up!' It was Katniss shaking my shoulders. It turns out that I was screaming in real life. She stays for a few minutes and then leaves. After this I don't have any more bad dreams.
The next day
'Get up Angelica! We will be at the Capital in two hours!' I get out of bed and go to the bathroom. Everything is either white or blue and is actually quiet pretty. After I have taken a shower and dried my hair I put on some black jeans and a blue top that is made out of silk. I also find some black flats so I wear them as well. I straighten my big black glasses and head towards the dinning room. I am the last to arrive and I take the remaining seat next to Thomas. When everyone has proceeded to talk he leads over to me and whispers in my ear.
'Your screaming woke me up last night. You need to stop being a baby thief.' I am fuming since I was screaming about him getting hurt and being killed.
'For your information I was screaming about you getting hurt and killed as well as my dad being hung.' I hiss back at him. This shuts him up but I know that he won't stop tormenting me.
'Angelica, Thomas welcome to the Capitol.' I grown as I see all of the brightly coloured people waving at us excitedly.
When the train stops we are lead into a building where we will be staying until we go into the games. When we enter the elevator Morticia presses the button that said 12 and we shoot up to our floor. The elevator stops and we all enter the room. It is giant! The walls are painted green, blue or white and a feast is waiting for us at the dinner table. We take our places at the table and begin to eat. After 5 minutes Peeta speaks up and says.
'Erm…Thomas, Angelica we have a plan to get you both out of the arena…' I nod patiently and so does Thomas. Katniss finishes Peeta's monologue for him.
'We want you to use the mockingjay strategy' I almost choke on my chicken and Thomas spits out his Water.
'NO!' we both shout simultaneously.
'Why not?' Peeta asks us curiously.
'I don't love thieves!'
'He's my sworn enemy!' we glare at each other before Katniss continues to speak.
'You have no choice. If you want to win and get sponsors then this is the best way to do it!' She says her temper rising.
'Fine I'll do it…' Thomas is the first to speak. I am completely shocked at first but then I say.
'If I have to…'
'Good know then the parade is in a couple of hours so myself and Peeta think that it is best for us to mentor you on how to act 'in love' Okay?' We clearly have no choice so Katniss takes me into my room and Peeta and Thomas stay in the dinning room. We will join back together in one hour and see what improvements have been made.
'All right then Angelica…What don't you like about Thomas?' I have to think about it for a moment before answering.
'He bullies me…' I say quietly. Katniss hears this and then asks.
'What does he do?'
'He…He calls me thief everyday, he humiliates me in front of everyone by tripping me up.'
'All right then. Well you have to forget everything that Thomas has ever done to you and concentrate on being maybe his friend? For know I mean…' Katniss is in shock that someone could be that mean but we carry on with the session.
An hour later we enter the dinning room and have to act like we have never met before. I am the first to speck.
'Hi there I'm Angelica Thorn. What's your name?' I ask politely and stick out my hand for him to shake. Thomas looks up at Peeta and he nods encouragingly. Whatever Peeta has taught him, Thomas doesn't want to do.
'Erm…Hi I'm Thomas Fern.' Thomas reaches for my hand but instead of shaking it he kisses it very quickly and I go slightly red. No one has ever done this to me before but I quickly remember that it is acting. We continue to act but it is clear that we both hated it. Thankfully it is time to get ready for the tribute parade and I am slightly scared by what my prep team and stylist will do to me, but hey that's life I suppose.
