Georgina Climated-District Escort
"Okay, and everything I need to know is in the envelope? Okay, when should I tell them? Now? Okay. I'll be right on it Miss. President."
God I hate that bitch. All she ever does is boss people around. She's like her grandfather but worse. She's is ten times the more dangerous than he ever was. Why do you ask? She's a woman. She overthinks things to the point of oblivion, and while some people see that as a issue I commend her for it. As much as I hate her the woman has her strengths, she thinks about things so often that she is never surprised by any outcome. Such is any dictator though I suppose.
I walk out of my train cart and into the living room. Of course no one is in there. They are all on their own carts waiting til we arrive back in the capital.
I take a deep breath in…"HOODLUMS GET YOUR BUTTS IN THIS LIVING COMPARTMENT NOW."
Slowly one by one the enter on. All of the capital kids are giving me dirty looks. They weren't happy when I told them that they would be coming on the road with me to pick up the other kids. They are just lucky that I haven't killed them myself yet.
"I was told to call you in and explain the next portion of the games to you."
"We're in a game!? I have no time for games! I have to save the world!" The boy from district two is really getting old quick.
"If you would let me finish," I say with a indefinite snap, "I awoke this afternoon to find a envelope sitting on my bedroom nightstand. I then received a call from the President short after explaining that I should read this to you. So here we go."
I pull the envelope out of my back pocket. It was a purple letter with the capital stamp on it. I open up the flap and begin to pull out and read the letter.
"Hello Tributes of the 225th Hunger Games. This year we are doing things a bit differently. There will be no interviews, as I find them boring and uninteresting. However the parade will happen still, we will have 2 days of training, and then we will go into the games.
That isn't where the fun leaves out. This year will be different. Each of you will have a partner in the games. Unlike a district partner, the person you are paired with has been randomly drawn and placed with you. The twist? If you die, they die. If they die. You die. It continues that way until the top 14 groups are left. Then it will be a regular Hunger Games. Well as regular as a Quell can get.
Attached below are the names of the partners you will have, you will room with your partner, train with your partner, and it's in your best interest to try and get along with your partner.
Here are the pairs:
Ecstacy and Shimmer
Marble and Landon
Alyia and Nolan
Angelo and Gillory
Annabell and Kyleigh-Marie
Tyler and AnnaSophia
Hadley and Addison
Robert and Abrianna
Roseali and Mathilda
Granite and Riley
Apollo and Alexis
Hayden and Matthew
These teams are final. There is no switching and no changing. You are all trained and I expect that you will make this a fantastic Hunger Games. See you at the parade.
May the odds be ever in your favor,
Alecto Snow
I finish reading the letter and can instantly tell which of the kids were excited and which of them were horrified. This is a game changer to the max. So many of these kids all their life, have been banking on the the strategy they've had for the Hunger Games. Now that they are paired up, they not only have to worry about themselves, but the people they were planning on killing only moments before.
"Well. Get a move on. Get in the room with your partner."
Roseali Micks-Capital Tribute (Mathilda's partner)
This has to be a sign. The girl that I came here to protect, is the girl that I get paired with. This couldn't have been a more perfect scenario. I walk up to her, she is sitting in the corner with her arms locked around her chest. She's petrified.
"Hi. I'm Roseali. Your partner in the games."
"Oh. Hello. My name is Mathilda."
She's so broken. There has to be something I can do to make her feel more at home, even in a situation like this.
"Why don't we go grab our bags out of our room and we can get to know each other a little better? After all. We are going to have a long next couple of weeks." I say with a sweet smile.
"Ya. Okay."
With that we walk to our respected suits and grab our bags.
Shimmer Soars-District 1 (Ecstasy's partner)
This girl better not be a little bitch. There is only room for one princess in this games. Her name starts with a S.
I see her sitting across the room. Her face is less than pleased staring me up and down. I walk up to her.
"Is there a problem?"
"Yes, there is actually. If you think for one minute that you can beat me, you're stupid. Also if you get me killed, you better hope there is no afterlife, cause you won't live long in that after that."
I stare and gawk at this girl. No one has ever talked to me like that before. Then I catch a sight of the District 2 girl.
"God I hate her."
"Oh my gosh! Me too! Who does she think she is?! Tyra Banks!?"
Maybe there is room for two princesses after all.
Hope you guys enjoyed this! More to come. I have been on a creative block for a little while, but I'm back! Everything is planned out now too! Review, review, review.
