Nico's Pov:

I was looking out the window, wondering how I will die this time... amazingly I haven't died by poison of any type. Weird right? There is another thing you should know about the curse I'm under, it says that I will have a best friend and a lover that would eventually join me on my journey. I would never wish that on anyone so I try not to get any friends or fall in love. I haven't told you what I look like, did I? I wear red lipstick to hide my naturally navy blue lips (don't ask). I also color my hair to hide the fact that it's white like snow. I spent some time with Maximum Ride and her friends so I have navy blue wings that, thankfully, are retractable. I felt someone come up behind me and sit down. I looked over and saw that it was Effie, she told me that we had about 15 minutes until we arrived at the capital. I opened my sketchbook and started to look through the drawings of all the people I have met; the first person that made me tear up was Jojan Reed (game of thrones), then Erik (phantom of the opera), and finally Enjorlas (les miserables). I had many other people in that book but they hadn't impacted me quite like those people did. Let me tell you the story behind the sketchbook in my hands; when I learned about the curse I was granted one thing to help me remember all my friends that help me in my quest for freedom. I chose a magic sketchbook with unlimited pages and unimaginable drawing skills. I was pulled out of my thoughts when we arrived at the station and I saw all the people outside the window, it reminded me of when I was stuck in a place that had a holiday where all crime was leader called Purge Day. I died by being hit by a burning bottle of alcohol. I started hyperventilating until Peeta calmed me down. He walked out in front of me, then behind me was Haymitch, and in front of Peeta was Effie. We went into the lobby of the training center and all of the other tributes were already there, so I started looking at the competition. The ones that really scared me were: the boy from 1, both from 2, and the boy from 11. I drew sketches of them so I could look for them in training, I also drew the girls from, 1, 5, and 11. They really didn't look to much of a threat, but looks can be deceiving. We went to the elevator, and I hoped that there was food because I hadn't eaten on the train. I was not dissapointed. There was so much food I could feed Gale's whole family with it and still have some left over. I ate slowly because I wasn't used to the richness of it all. When I was done with it I left to my room to get a little privacy while I stretch my wings, which I have to do every night so they don't get stiff. I took off the shirt I was wearing and let my wings come out of their concealment under my skin, and streached them humming "The Wizard and I" from my favorite musical "Wicked". All was going well, at least until my door opened revealing a flabbergasted Peeta in the doorway. He opened his mouth to scream, but I covered his mouth and pulled him into my room while my wings retracted. "Peeta I can explain-" I started to say when he blasted my with 90 questions a second. Okay that is a bit exaggerated but he did ask me a few questions, like, "How long have you been able to do that? How are you able to do that? Is that why you were running away from something in the woods the day you came to the district?" I answered them like so, "As long as I can remember, it just comes naturally, yes I was running from the capital guards that were trying to catch me for who knows what. I was kinda planning to use them as a secret weapon in the tenant that's ruined unless you want to be allies in the arena?" Then it was agreed that we were allies, but also that I would show up said the real me at training. That means that I can't wear hair dyes or lipstick and I must have my wings out. I only agreed to the last one after a LOT of arguing. Oh, the fun I will have tomorrow.


A/n: Oh no, her secret is out, what will she do! Also please don't ask me about Game of Thrones, or Maximum Ride because I don't know squat about them except the things I put in the chapter.
