Chapter 2 The train
The train is even more luxury than the room where I said good bye to my family and my friends at the Justice building. Effie show us our bedrooms, which is very luxery, but if I prefer my own bedroom at home, it isn't big but I like it way more than this. How could I get here, in this mess? I don't want to die. But I've to, if I want to save Katniss. And I have to save her. Her sister needs her, her mother too. No one needs me, I am just me, and I think that Katniss could change everything if she win. I don't want to be a piece in their game. I want to show the capitol that I am more than a slave. I don't want them to change me, I want to be me when I die, and I can't if they force me to kill. I don't want to be a murderer, but I have to be if I want to help Katniss. She can win by herself and some help from sponsors, but some more help from the inside can't hurt her. I sit at the bed that is way too big for just me. I look through the window and the green forest swish by when the train moves. I feel sick of the high speed. And I am hungry too. Just something like a soup should be fine right now. Then Effie Trinknet knock at my door, inviting me for dinner. Perfect!
I expected just one dish at the table, but there are like twenty different dishes here. I feel sick, why do the capital people eat twenty dishes for dinner? And how? There are children who starve, and at this table it is so much food that I feel sick. I sit down; wait for the others to join. Katniss join us with a green sleeveless shirt and new pants. Effie asks "Where's Haymitch?" I answer her "Last I saw him, he said he was going to take a nap". I am kind of happy that he don't join us, he's drunk.
When we sit in another car to look at the reaping, he appears, drunk. "I'm missed supper?" he asks. We smile nice to him, but then he vomit at the carpet, that must be very expensive. He falls in the mess. Second fall today, must be painful to fall everywhere. I get so disguised that I start to laugh, Katniss too. Effie looks at us, disguised as no one else. She says, "So laugh away!" and tries to avoid the smell. I said to Katniss that I should wash him alone, not to get any advantages to her. I just want to be kind to her. She probably went to her chamber to try to get some sleep. When I've helped Haymitch to bed, I walk to my own chamber and take a shower. After my shower, I go to bed. But I can't sleep. The only thing I can do is think about how to save her life and how to show the capital that they don't own me.
Next morning.
I wake up and go to the dining room. I find a Haymitch that drink, again. Effie is there to, she looks disgusted at Haymitch and says,"Good morning, Peeta". I answer her, "God morning, Miss Trinket". I sit down and find some bread, and some liquid that Effie says is "hot chocolate". It taste pretty nice. Really nice actually. A tierd Katniss with bags under her eyes joins us. Her mood this morning seems to be bad. I blush since I don't know what to say. Haymitch tell her to sit down. She serve herself some breakfast and I realize that she looks at my hot Chocolate. "They call it hot chocolate" I say, "It's good". She takes a slip of her own cup. I think she liked it. Looks like it. "So, you're supposed to give us advice" Katniss says to Haymitch. "Here is some advice. Stay alive." He replays. I get angry at him, he jokes about it. He's such an evil man when he's drunk. Me and Katniss exchange a look, she understand that I am angry. "That's very funny" I know that I am red of anger"Only not for us". It's me and Katniss that might be dead in maybe a week, not him. It's enough, he drink too much. I try to lash his glass from him. Haymitch punch me on the jaw. Katniss drive a knife into the table, just between his fingers. Haymitch says "Well, what's this?" He looks at us. "Did I get a pair of fighters this year?" Maybe, he has. At least one of us is a real fighter. She just proved it. I rise, scoop a handful of ice and put it against my jaw, it hurts. That drunk is strong. "No" says Haymich, trying to stop me. "Let the bruise show. The audience will think that you've mixed it up with another tribute before you've even made it to the arena" he says. What? To fight with another tribute before the arena is obviously against the rules. I will break other rules in this game, but not this. "That's against the rules" I say.
Finally he tells us about our next step in the capital.
When we arrive to the capital, I wave to the audience at the station. Katniss staring at me and I tell her "One of them may be rich".
