Time for chapter two! Sorry that last chapter was so short but there was nothing much too write for that one, hopefully this one will be longer! Thanks too my reviewers even Mosspath. Especially to Hungergamesfan51 and Lolipop9466!

Why is it always me?

Why is it always me? That's my first thought and then I think, hang on! I've been picked! Maria looks at me and I see that her face is a deathly white. "Up you go Amber! Good luck!" her voice trembles as she tries not to cry. I try to look unfazed as I step up. Lilly then says something amazing,

"Yey, hello Amber!" I feel my lips curve into a broad smile. Trust Lilly!

"Now! Do we have any volunteers?" no one moves.

"Right! Well, then Amber! You're now the District 5 tribute!" I'd kind of guessed Lilly!

"Soooooooooooooooo now it's time for the boy tribute!" No way Lilly! "Right this time it's, Aiden Sandler!" Who on Earth? Never heard of him! I crane my head and see an ashen skinned boy with dark brown hair and green eyes step forward.

"Amazing! This year we have, Amber and Aiden!" Lilly is the only one to laugh at her own joke. Aiden and I shake hands and the mayor reads the treaty of treason, a dull lecture about the capitol and the uprising.

I'm sitting in the Justice building waiting for my visitors. First comes my Mother, all she has to say to me before she breaks down into tears is, "remember I love you, Amber!" then she runs away sobbing. I don't even get a chance to say goodbye. Typical Mum. My next visitor is Maria,

"I'm so, so sorry Amber!"

"What for it wasn't your fault?!"

"I don't know! It's just…" she trails off, then takes a small silver chain off from around her neck. "Here!" she hands me the chain. "It's your district token, you remember you gave it too me when we were Five years old! I didn't add anything on just kept it as a simple chain with an A and an M on! Please wear it! Please Amber!"

"Of course I will Maria!" she starts drying as she fastens it round my neck. We hug each other until my last two visitors come so she leaves me in peace with the last parting words, "Remember me, Amber! Please?"

"Of course! Goodbye!"

My last two visitors are the twins, "Good luck Amber!" they always speak together.

"Yes thanks! Look out for me won't you? On screen?"

"Of course! As long as you remember us!"

"Always!" and then they're hurried away and I might never see any of them again.

The train that takes the tributes up to the capitol has just arrived and, as the first time I'd seen it, it took my breath away. All the trains were different, but ours was a pale emerald green, and it was very sleek and smooth. As we climbed in the temperature changed dramatically, our district is rather cold, and this train was practically boiling. Lilly shepherds us down a corridor off the side of the Tribute Train, and we see that's it's covered in doors, well not covered but all along the length are doors symmetrically spaced and in perfect condition. We stop at a pale blue door marked with a B and Lilly pushes this open and says,

"Here you go Aiden, these are your rooms, I'll be back in a minute to collect you for dinner but now I'll leave you to get changed." She motions with her hand to me and starts off toward the end of the corridor. We stop near the very end next to a pale orange door with a G on, and she pushes it wide and herds me in.

"Right like I said to Aiden in a moment I'll be back to collect you for dinner but in the mean time you can have a wash and get changed into something more… suitable." I glance down at my dress, which is wrinkled from where I've been sitting down and is stained with tear marks.

"Ok." I step delicately into the room and am rewarded with a view of the mountains and fields before the train zooms away at around 300 MPH if you ask me. I look round the room and I take in the details, thick green carpet, almost like grass, magenta curtains and scarlet bed sheets, I take a tentative step toward a door in the wall and as I push it open I see a blue and white bathroom with an arch type thing next to the shower. I step back out and go toward the huge chest of drawers and I pull out a pale blue top with black trousers and I put on some sturdy boots that come up to my shins. A moment after I've done this Lilly nocks on my door and trills,

"It's time for dinner Amber! I hope you're ready!" oh great I get too spend dinner with Miss silly and Mr Gloom.

I walk into the large compartment that is the dinner room, there's a table next to the wall that's piled high with food. I see Lilly and Aiden next to a man and a woman that I know are our mentors I've seen them every year, at the reaping. The man is called Danien and the woman, Scarlet. Lilly starts off the discussion by asking if we want to be coached together or separately,

"Separately if you don't mind, Aiden." I say quickly

"Nope that's fine with me!" he looks kind of relieved that I won't see him when he's being totally helpless.

"Right, now we've got that sorted let's eat!" Lilly just can't help being bright and bouncy even when there's nothing to be happy about can she?

A white robed man steps forward and in his hands are plates of food, he puts them down on the table and then goes back for more. Once the table is covered in food he backs away into a corner. Aiden and I just stare stupidly at the food; I've never seen so much on one table. Lilly digs straight in and helps herself to whatever she pleases. I take spoonfuls of vaguely recognisable food and I eat ravenously, breakfast seems a long time ago. The food is rich, though, and I feel slightly sick, Aiden also looks queasy. We have three hours until we reach The Capitol. I go back to my room and peel off my clothes. I climb into bed, after choosing from one of the numerous nightgowns in the drawers. I need my rest.

After what seems no time at all, I wake. For a moment I feel like im back home, then it all comes flooding back. I think about what to put on, I'm no glamour puss, but I must look good, there will be camera's at the station, and the people watching would be the people betting on me, or my sponsors. I finally decide on my reaping dress, as it isn't dirty or crumpled. It makes me look much more beautiful and elegant than I really am. The crowd are cheering and we haven't even stepped out of the doors. I go into the main carriage to see Aiden and Lilly standing behind Scarlet and Danien. Aiden is wearing his Reaping outfit as well. I put my chain back on and pull it back out of the dress so everyone can see it. As we get out of the train the crowd whoops and whistles, they yell our names and call us by our district. Lilly shepherds us into a giant room with marble pillars. We head toward a tinted glass door; there are shadows moving around behind it. But when we get round there there's nothing. We head toward a big glass box and as we step into it I realise it's an elevator. Lilly taps the number five and we shoot upwards. I don't like the feeling and I think that I've left my stomach behind. Felling sick again we walk down a green carpeted corridor and stop beside two doors facing each other. "This one is yours Amber," she indicates the one on the right, " This is yours Aiden." The one on the left. " My room is just down the hall and I'll fetch you when you're wanted for stylising. Bye now!" she trots off down the hall and vanishes behind a corner. I glance at Aiden. " Well, I'll see you then…" Aiden looks at me and then starts as he realises what I've said.

" Yeh, I guess, bye." He opens the doors and, shoulders slumped, walk into the room and without looking back closes the door in my face.
