This is Chapter three! I hope people like it. I got a comment from someone about tense. I can't keep to one tense so I hope everyone can get past that. I also am hoping to change it a bit more before everything else. By the way you may not hear Cory talk much. He's shy. But he does have a little chat with Winter in this Chapter. Anyway on with the show…Chapter!
Chapter three
The Capitol
I groaned and rolled around on the bed. Claire was calling me from outside the door. "Get up, time for breakfast!" She banged on the door before leaving. I groaned and rolled some more before falling on the floor. it was cold! I quickly got to my feet but I was still shaking. Cold, very cold. I looked at the floor where the cloths were scattered around. I picked up a light blue tank top and put it on. I also threw on a jumper to keep me warm. I looked at putting on a pair of black board shorts but instead picked up a pair of Jeans. I walked into the bathroom and got changed and brushed my Raven Blue hair back into a pony tail. I walked from the bathroom and down a corridor until I hit the breakfast Car.
I saw Azzuen, Claire and Cory sitting down. Cory was looking around when I came and sat next to him. I was still shaking from the cold but not nearly as bad as before."We will be reaching the capitol in about 2 hours. Enough time to have a good breakfast." Claire spoke and soon after several plates were lined up on a bench not far behind us. "Get whatever you want and make sure you don't make yourself sick."
Azzuen was first up followed by me behind him. We grabbed a spare plate
each and picked something from each of the set out plates. Bacon, Eggs, Beans and everything else you could think of. It was like heaven to me as I often never eat anything more than a piece of bread and maybe some porridge when I got lucky.
Cory and I couldn't stop eating. We were being treated like royalty. Neither of us spoke through breakfast but Azzuen and Claire were talking.
When I stopped eating I felt like I was going to be sick. So much food
isn't good for you and I knew I wouldn't have much in the Arena. When the others stopped we had little time to spare. It was now about half an hour till we arrived at the Capitol to begin training and
display.
I excused myself from the table and walked to my car and sat on the bed. This is where it may end, I thought playing with the necklace. I stood up and went into the bathroom to have a shower. I got dressed into the same close I was in before. They were a perfect fit which seemed a bit odd being I told no one what size cloths I am. When the train pulled up I was all dressed and ready to go. I walked to the cart where we first got onto to find Azzuen and Claire standing there.
Claire walked over to me, "Good. You're on time." She saw Cory coming down with his hair sopping wet. She gasped and took a small towel from a cupboard and started drying his hair. "We have to look presentable."
I laughed at him as he stood there unsure of what to think about Claire drying his hair for him. I sighed and looked out the cart door at the big city. The buildings towered over other buildings. It was a huge city that was knows by all as the Capitol. I was scared of this place since my brother was sent in and Killed on T.V. I wasn't looking forward to going into the training area or the interviews or anything they throw at me. I was going to scream in the president's face when i saw him. Well not really I'd get in too much trouble, I thought to myself.
"what are you thinking about? I hope it's not of dying cause it never helps you win," Azzuen stood next to me with a grin on his face. He was happy to see me going in there. To die.
"no. Just thinking about screaming in the president's face." I shrugged and looked up at him.
"Lets go people!" Claire screamed knocking me down off the train. She grabbed my wrist and pulled me up, "we only have a short amount of time to get to the building where you will be staying!"
We ran behind her looking like idiots as she skipped at a high speed. We slowed before we got there and she fixed our hair and cloths, "much better. Lets go."
We walking into a large building that was very fancy, as everything in this city was. This is were we would be staying for some time now, until the games start anyway. Claire knew where to go so we took an elevator up to the 11th floor. We got out and on the wall infront of us was a sign, 'district 11'.
Claire showed us where out each of our rooms were and we were left in peace for a while. So i took this time to sit on my bed and think about everything, My family, my Friends, my whole district.
There was a sudden knock on my door. I sat up from the bed and walked toward the door opening it. At the door stood Cory looking at me, "Hello, Cory. What's up?" I smiled.
He suddenly lost his calm he I could see a small tear run down his cheek. I walked away and grabbed a tissue from the box beside my bed. He spoke soon after, "i just wanted to know if i am the only one of us worried."
I laughed, "Of course not. I'm shit scared of it." For the first time I heard him laughed. It was nice to see i could cheer people up.
We sat on my bed for about an hour talking about our lives and family. I ended up crying and i knew he probably thought me as a baby right now but he was also crying so we were fine. The door swung open and an angry Azzuen stood at the door, "Claire is yelling at me because you two are late. Dinner started about 20 minutes ago. So get your little butts moving. NOW!"
We didn't need to be told twice before we were at the dining hall in seconds flat. Cory was still laughing and crying. I hadn't spoken to him about all but he's a nice kid so i kept our little chat in my mind.
