After Miss Plum finished showing us the entire campus, we were reunited with our escorts and they took us to our rooms.

"Alright dearie, so here is your dorm, room number 933. Your roommates are Clove Cultris of District 2 and Glimmer Rosehaven of District 1" Effie tells me. I groan at the thought of spending a room with that stuck up priss.

I never realized how large the Academy was. There is a whole separate building just for training. Apparently it's called the Cube. We spent most of the time in there, since it was the largest building besides the main hall. The main hall is where all of the dorms are placed as well as the cafeteria.

Then there is a smaller structure that is the Hospital. I guess training means a lot of injuries. Then there is a gym that is more just for enjoyment. It has a large swimming pool and a running track. But my favorite building was the library. It was the smallest of all, but it held the most innocence. It was by far the quietest and peaceful and I have a feeling I won't be getting much of that here.

All between the buildings are groves of perfectly groomed lawn and shrubs. With stoned paths and benches connecting the buildings. It really is a beautiful place, and it would be almost paradise besides the fact that this place is preparing you for the ultimate horror, the Hunger Games.

"Here is your tablet, it holds everything you need to know. When you wake up in the morning your schedule will be the first thing to pop up when you turn it on. Also, on this events board is where you will find any upcoming events that are happening" Effie says with a smile "I guess that's all now, good luck dearie" Then she trots away in her outrageously high heels with her wig bobbing up and down.

Just before she turns the corner she turns around and chirps "Don't forget to charge it while you're sleeping, we don't want the battery to die now do we" I nod my head and open the door.

I walk into what seems to be a living room. Directly across from me is a huge Television with large windows on either side. A large L shaped blue couch with cushions and drapes piled on it sits facing the TV and across from it are two green armchairs. Between them is a polished black coffee table with a vase of flowers on top of it as well as assorted magazines. Underneath the legs of the furniture is a fluffy white rug.

Below all of this is beautiful dark wood that runs all the way into the kitchen. The cabinets are all painted a beautiful white with a Mauve Granite countertop. There is a large island with 2 black stools waiting to be sat on and where I can see there is a sink and an oven.

On my right is a large black dining table with a white pattern crawling across it. 4 black chairs sit pushed underneath the table and a white light fixture hangs from above.

I walk a little further in and shut the door behind me. I notice how high the ceilings are and how much light radiates from the windows. I have never seen a more beautiful room.

I wander into the living room and notice that one side of the large room is a small hallway. I turn around and notice there is just a lone door. I slowly walk down the hallway and open the first door.

Inside is a large bedroom painted a soft pink. There is a four-poster bed with pink and white floral designs on the sheets. Across from it is a large white washed vanity with a dark grey box on it. Beside the bed is a small table and underneath the bed is a large animal skin rug. On the opposite end of the room is a large window nook with white and pink pillows placed carefully on it.

An empty built in bookshelf sits in one of the walls and beside the door on the left is an old style desk. I spot a door on the other side of the window nook and contemplate about going to look at what lies beyond it. But I decide against it and shut the door. Then I move onto the next door.

This room is painted a light green and has hints of violet here and there. The bed is also a large King sized bed and its sheets are light purple and white combination. There is a shaggy green rug underneath it giving off the sensation of grass.

Beside the bed is a white bedside table trimmed with a dark forest green color. Across from the bed is a large vanity but is painted a duller green color. Beside the vanity is a door that leads to something and across from me is a large window nook similar to the one in the other room. Beside it is a built in bookshelf but this one is tinted purple.

A crystal chandelier hangs over top of the bed and catches the light streaming in from the window.

I close the door and walk to the other side of the dorm. I open the door and notice how large this room is.

The walls are painted a light blue color with a white railing half way up the walls. There is a large King sized bed pushed up against the wall on my left and is piled with pillows and white sheets dotted with little blue flowers. Across from the bed is a sliding door that leads out to a small balcony. Directly across from me is a door and beside the door is a white vanity.

I take a few steps into the room and leave the door slightly ajar. Against the wall that leads out into the living space is a built in shelf and beside that is a small wooden desk. A bench sits at the foot of the bed and it looks as though something can go inside it.

Large curtains hang on the sides of the balcony entrance and a small chest of drawers sits near the bed. The dark wooden floors reflect nicely against the soft colored room and the sunlight makes the room seem even larger than it already is.

I set my duffel bag on the bench at the foot of the bed and let out a frightened gasp as someone clears his or her throat. I turn around and standing in the doorway is a small brown haired, green eyed, freckled girl.

She takes a few steps into the room and looks directly at me.

"Who are you?" She demands

I reply in a quiet voice "Katniss Everdeen, I used to live in District 12"

The strange girl raises an eyebrow and looks at me from head to toe. Then she startles me as she raises her hand for me to shake and says

"I am Clove Cultris, representing District 2. I think you and I will get along fine" I slowly shake her hand and she lets out a small smile.

"I assume you want this room so I will go unpack my bags in that green purple room at the other end of the dorm" And with that she turns on her heel and marches out of the room. I continue to stare at the door long after she left, confused at the recent encounter.

Eventually I shake it off and shut the door. Then I walk over to my bat and begin unpacking my things. I place my undergarments into the chest of drawers. Then I open up the door expecting there to be a closet, but instead it's a whole other room.

Beyond the door is a bathroom, just for me. It's about half the size of my bedroom with a large bathtub and a separate shower. There is a closed off section for the toilet and another door to the left.

I open it and gasp. It's a walk in closet, full of clothes. I step inside and run my hands along the beautiful garments. There are hundreds of clothes in here, one in every color, texture and design. It's amazing! It feels like a disgrace to put my clothes in here.

So I don't. I place them in the small bench at the foot of my bed. Then I unpack my other things. I place my brush and hair accessories in a drawer in the bathroom. I place my books on the shelf and my shoes beside my bench. I place the picture of my family on the vanity as well as that large book I found in the living room.

Then I wander towards the balcony. I easily open the door and let out a happy sigh as a cool breeze tickles my skin. From here I can see the whole grounds. Even beyond it. A few miles away I can see the outline of a small city. It surely can't be the Capitol could it?

No, the Capitol is too large; perhaps this is just a community outside it. I know that the Academy is somewhere outside the Capitol. But I'm not sure how far. They don't tell people the exact location for obvious reasons.


Ok, so. That was it for now. Please review, I stayed up late writing this up for you :D:D AND I would like to thank all of you who showed me your support for this story. I didn't realize you all liked this that much and you really did change my mind. I have some new ideas that I am planning to put in play soon, but I love hearing ideas :D
