Chrome Emblem

Age 37

Games Announcer

"Chrome, you ready for the games this year?" I look up from my book and glance at the door. My partner, Birdie, is standing in the doorway holding a tea tray. I place my book down as they set it on the table in front of me.

"I am ready, but I'm just not so sure about what our new president has planned. Who knows what she has cooked up! Not that I'm criticising her, I'm just curious, you know?" I explain. Birdie nods and they sit down next to me.

"I hear the arena this year is going to be very unique. Something about a mix, you know?" They muse. I shrug as I take a sip of the tea.

"Well, I was given a small hint… By the way, where's Lucy?" I ask. Birdie smiles and points towards the living room

"She's in the living room watching My Lovely Unicorn Kitty. Honestly, by now you'd think that the show would have ended. I think it's on its what, seventeenth season by now?" they laugh. I set down my drink.

"Strangely, that's the hint I was given."

"Wait, what?"

"You see, this morning, I received an email from head gamemaker Zane Python himself. It said the he was instructed by the president to give me a hint, and that hint was My Lovely Unicorn Kitty." I shake my head in confusion.

"That makes no sense. Unless the arena has something to do with Sparkle Lake, it'd have nothing to do with My Lovely Unicorn Kitty." Birdie sighs. I blink, confused.

"What's Sparkle Lake?" I ask, "Is that from My Lovely Unicorn Kitty? Do you watch the show?!"

Birdie glares at me, their face flushing.

"N-no I don't watch the show! Lucy just talks about it a lot is all! I DON'T WATCH IT AT ALL!" Birdie denies. I smile slyly.

"Surrrreee you don't!" I laugh. Birdie punches me lightly on the arm.

"I hope that you have everything ready, Chrome." Birdie teases.

Kotona Orosama

Age 29

Games Interviewer

"Okay girl," I say to myself. "This is your first games. You are the Games Interviewer for the first time. You can do this. You-"

"-Can't do this!"

"GET OUT OF MY ROOM TOKONA!" I screech. Tokona, my twin sister, laughs almost maniacally.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" she's gone before I can catch her. Tokona knows how nervous I am about this year's Games. After all, I am the interviewer for the first time this year. I rub my forehead; I feel a migraine coming on.

I've been psyching myself up in the mirror for the past few days. I've watched and rewatched previous interviewers talk to the tributes, practiced public speaking, and so much more.

"Okay, fine. You're gonna do great, sis. I know it!" Tokona encourages, popping into my room again. I roll my eyes. Tokona and I might be identical twins, but we look and act as different as oranges and apples.

"Tokona, please. I'm trying to encourage my-"

"WELL YA DON'T HAFTA DO IT YOURSELF NO MORE!" Tokona screeches, jumping up and down. I groan and push her out of the room.

"Please, Tokona! No!"

"Awww, c'mon Kotona! All I have to do is yell at you a bit and-"

"OUT!" I scream, slamming the door. What a pain. I plop down on the bed and stare at the ceiling for a bit.

I wonder what interesting tributes we'll have this year, I think to myself.

"Kotona!"

I get up and look out the window. Seated on the tree branch right outside my window is my boyfriend, Kichi. I smile as he hops down into my room.

"You excited for this year's games?" he asks me. I nod slowly; a buzzing feeling of excitement and nervousness is starting to rise in my chest.

"I'm excited all right… just nervous, haha…" I sigh. Kichi pats my head gently.

"You'll do great, Koto-cat. I just know it." he says encouragingly. I blush and instinctively hide my face.

"Thank you, Kichi."

I hope these two were quite interesting! I was playing around with the idea of a fresh Games Interviewer, so here we have Kotona~

Chapter Question: What do you think of Chrome and Kotona?

Remember in your review that I'm still new to the whole SYOT game, so I'm trying my best! Very soon, we'll move into the Reapings and District 1 will be up!

Also, there are still some open slots, so if you could submit that would be great! Remember, you are allowed to submit up to three tributes.

So thank you guys so much for reading, and me, NyanToDaMax145, will see you guys next time! BOOOOOOIIIIIII!
