I'm back with yet another tempting to read and most suspenseful chapter for Hunger Games Inc. Last time we saw Sulley and Althea escorted to the high tech fancy Capitol train. We saw how Derek Knight, their mentor gave them some useful advice but Sulley did not like how much of a use Derek is being. We know Sulley is having a hard time trying to think about surviving the Hunger Scare Games. We'll see what happens with Sulley and the escort Roz.

Enjoy!

When bits of the morning light shot down through the windows of the passenger car, young Sulley felt the sun rays beaming through his eyes. He squinted for a moment and tossed himself around the side of the bed. All night he heard the glass lamps making noise when the train kept on moving. He didn't sleep like a log because of the train moving. He did however love the softness of the bed. It was 5 AM and the sun was barely rising up. Sulley felt like he wanted to sleep in the day since there's no use of getting up with no hunting. He thought about his friends back at District Twelve. He missed them already and since he will be in the games, it's likely he won't return back home. Sulley forgotten about the pin he was wearing, the one Celia gave him.

The pin was still in Sulley's Reaping Day shirt, all wrinkled up. The shirt lied there right in the corner. Maybe later….. He thought.

Suddenly a big bang came from the door. Sulley squinted a little more. Whoever you are, go away. I'm getting some shut eye!

"Rise and shine! Time for your manner lessons! I expect for you to get your toes right to the dining car in one minute."

"Some of us are trying to sleep, FYI here."

"I don't care if you need sleep. I expect for you to learn manners before you arrive at the Capitol. I'll be watching you….always." Sulley opened his eyes for a moment. Ugh…need more sleep. He lay in bed for five minutes, trying to close his eyes. Then he got up and stretched his back. He took off his bath robe and he wore his reaping day shirt today. It was even more wrinkled than before and he also had his mockingjay pin on. He wished he had his sleep more than wake up calls.

Sulley arrived at dinning car, seeing Roz waiting impatiently. He grunted and didn't care if he was late. "You're five minutes late young lad. You are considered tardy."

"No big deal", he said.

"Ugh, your clothes, they're not what I expected to be. Too wrinkled." Roz didn't seem quite appealed to Sulley's wrinkled shirt. She thought the shirt looked atrocious but she did seem fond of Sulley's mockingjay pin. Sulley didn't care how monsters judge about his clothes. He rather is in bed by now. "Right on, to the table please", said Roz. At the dining table, there was fancy silverware and a breakfast meal right in the front of his face. Sulley sat down and was about to dig up on the food until Roz said, "Halt!"

"What now", groaned Sulley.

"Rule number one, shift the entire chair right to the table, not leaning." Sulley pushed himself closer to the table. "Rule number two, no slouching. It is rather considered rude if you did that at the Capitol." Sulley reluctantly sit up straight. He was now about to dig up with his hands but Roz hold his hand before he touches the toast.

"Not so fast, please pick up your silverware before eating. Using hands is rather considered unsanitary."

"It's the same concept", growled Sulley.

"I don't care. At the Monster Capitol, you MUST use silverware or else they'll be watching you."

"I rather barf up breakfast", he mumbled. Sulley took a fork and knife and placed it in the sides of the plate. This is getting ridicules. I'm here wasting my time with manners.

Sulley saw how delicious the toast buttered up, glazed with blackberries. He cuts the toast with the knife and took a bite with the fork. He thought it was silly at first but then he was getting the ropes respectfully. "Very good", said Roz. Sulley also saw the orange juice. He took a big sip when Roz smirked at how he makes noises. "Slowly and silently Mr. Sullivan."

"I have a name you know", said Sulley. He sipped slowly and quietly, while Roz's face softens. For one hour, Sulley now started using silverware and eats properly. "I see you've grown with the experience of table manners James. Let's move on with social manners." The two went to the lounge car. Sulley was needed to be friendly with others once he is at the Capitol, according to Roz. So that means no rolling eyes, grumbling, mumbling, and talking back harshly. Sulley practiced with Roz for a while, how he needed to keep his face straight forward. It was like an interview for sure so basically it call being friendly to others.

The next process was being confident whenever monsters pass by. Roz would make Sulley walk up straight, chin up, and smiles on. Sometimes when Sulley backs down at first, Roz sometimes gives him a little encouragement. "Come on! Monsters don't get intimidated. They walk up to the crowd and smile. Show them what you got." The more encouragement she gives, the more annoyed the blue monster gets. He would just do his best and be confident.

When Althea and Mr. Knight got up for breakfast, Sulley only lied down on the small couch. It felt like he was going to be stuck with them forever. He was too tired since he got up earlier and was tortured like a dog. Stand up, walk up straight, eat properly, etc.

The next thing you know it, the big guy rested his mind for a moment, while Derek kept on giving some lifesaving advice.

"So, how do you get sponsors from the Capitol", asked Althea.

"If I were you sweetheart, I make an impression. Something that wows the crowd. The thing is you got to make monsters look up to with scaring, and special moments. When I mean special moments, I mean you share something you keep an oath to as they interview, live on MC TV."

"So, does this mean scaring and try to look desirable for them", asked Althea.

"You could say that", said Mr. Knight.

Sulley heard the conversation but he didn't put a care into it. He knows he's very scary but there wasn't anything to make him look desirable.

At noon, Sulley took a nap on the sofa. He lied there for at least hours and hours from breakfast. He would keep his worries from happening and take a siesta. It's no surprise to hear Roz's encouragement of manners, Derek giving the tributes advice, and walking up straight and confident. He dreamed of him fighting and scaring to the death. He would take out his knife to strike a slash to the Careers. He would also scare them to death as well. Sulley was at the creek, drinking refreshed water to keep him hydrated for the next few hours. Suddenly a big shadow appears right in front of him. The monster scared Sulley and stabbed him to death.

The blue monster woke up surprise. His eyes widen when he looked around in the dining car. "It was just a dream", he said to himself. He got up and went to the lounge car. He saw Althea reading a book she was offered by Roz. Althea enjoys literature once in a while. She would peacefully read and not make a sound.

"Hey", said Sulley. Althea got surprised at first when the silence broke off her reading. "Oh hello", she sighed in relief. "Mind if I sit with you", said Sulley.

"Sure, it's been getting lonely in here." Sulley sat near Althea for one reason. He wanted to apologize about yesterday. How he snapped at the poor orange blonde haired monster. He regrets it now since he dreamed of his nightmare. He groaned, putting his hand to his forehead. "I had a nightmare", he said.

"About what", Althea asked.

"About me, getting killed by a tribute. I was there minding my own business with water until he scared me. He also killed me as well."

"That's awful", said Althea.

"Yeah."

"I hear Roz has been giving you some manner lessons. How were they?"

"Okay I guess. I couldn't even stand her yelling and treating me like I was her pet." Sulley shivers, and gulps down. "Bet if that ever happened to you. She would scold at you when you eat, not walking straight, and being friendly to others."

"I guess you can say you didn't enjoy yourself."

"Tell me about it." The two broke into silence. "James, would it be okay if I gave you advice I got from Mr. Knight?"

"Don't bother, I heard it before. He said something to impress the Monster Capitol. He said to use scare, and to make monsters to like you. I heard before I shut my eyes to the snooze button."

"Oh", said Althea.

"Uh-huh." Later at dinner, the four were eating fried fish with lemon sauce on it, along with latte. Sulley sipped his latte slowly, noticing Roz watching him how he eats. Give me a break will you women?

"The proper way of getting monsters to like you is simple. Leave that to your stylists."

"Stylists", asked Althea.

"They can handle you to impress others." Mr. Knight took a fish and ate it. Sulley ignored him for some time, until he spoke to him. "How are stylists going to help us?"

Derek swallowed the fish and sighed. "Sullivan, you would need some wisdom in order to heed my advice. They'll make you look like a desirable monster. Take it from them; I know they'll just put you in suits." Sulley thought of monsters, putting on fancy suits that he really hates. Like he knows he is no fashion monster. He never took care of his Reaping Day shirt. He would imagine if they will make him dress too fancy. Just great…..
