Blaise Calder's POV
Rayne and I stood in the doorway of the train letting the camera flashes blind us until we were let inside the train. The train was beautiful inside of course, but I tried not to smile because I thought of how unfair the system was.
I felt weird towering half a foot over a girl who was a year older, so I started moving around the compartment like I was interested. Rayne looked around, seeming to be unsure of her surroundings when Claudia Templesmith burst in.
"Hel-looo tribuuutes!"
"You don't have to do that," Rayne kind of snapped at her.
"I know." Her actual voice had been completely mutilated by the comedic capitol accent. I held back my giggles. "There is food a few compartments down, if your not hungry the Avoxes will assist you too your rooms. She trotted off in an important manner. I figured I could wait till diner for food, I could tell Rayne wanted to eat, but when she saw me start to leave the other way she followed her own Avox.
My room was nicer than the justice building. I spent a long time roaming around my room.
Rayne Westinghouse's POV
I am kind of hungry, but I knew I could wait until diner and I held true to my promise.
I was called to diner at 6. I sat on the opposite side from Blaise, it really was extremely hard to believe he was younger. I knew how to control myself and while I didn't hold back I didn't attack the food either. I ate a lovely meaty soup and fruit salad. Blaise probably ate more than me even though we finished around the same time.
"When you are finished meet me in the next compartment and we'll watch the reapings." I stood to follow her; it looked almost like Blaise was dreading this.
There was quite a few small girls, I got lucky, although I was still one of the smallest.
Blaise's POV
I could barely stand to look at the kids I would be forced to kill. District 7's tributes were both small 12 year olds, only one could come back, probably neither would. I couldn't bare it; I went to my room and just sat on my bed head in hands. I was trying to except my new reality but it seemed impossible. My family flickered into my mind and tears started to run down my face. I missed my cousins and my friends and everybody. I cried myself into unconsciousness.
The dream I had that night was too much for me to handle. The games had started but instead of other tributes it was my cousins and siblings, I screamed and tried to run but that was before the gong had sounded. I woke in a cold sweat, and decided I couldn't break down like that again I had to be strong, stronger than I had ever had to be.
Rayne Westinghouse's POV
I woke the next morning to find a blonde Avox boy in the bathroom.
"Hello. Is breakfast ready yet?" he nodded and I walked lazily to the compartment with food in it. I had raspberry flapjacks the size of my head and lily tea. I didn't even bother trying not to look crazed. I scarfed down a large pile before a man came in.
I had never seen him before. He had red hair and a muscular look. He came and sat next to me. "Are you Rayne? I'm Ronny Fodlin, your mentor." I nodded and spoke in a soft tone.
"Yeah, I'm Rayne. Do you want me to get Blaise?" I started to get up.
"No. Let him sleep. Here." He handed me a table knife. I looked at him confused. "Throw it."
"I'm not very good at throwing; can I show you something else instead?"
"I suppose, long distance can be very important however." I walked over to a decorative table and it was no longer a table or anything resembling one about 4 seconds latter. "Can you do that to a person?" I hated the thought, but I had to do that to an angry pig once.
"I probably can."
"Can you climb?"
"I can get into a tree."
"Good." I could almost see the wheels turning in his head. I hoped he was pondering my strategy.
I'm soooo sorry I had a really big project I had to do for school but I'm done with it now. I'm going to write 1 or 2 more train rides I need more votes on my poll otherwise I'll just pick one I'd like to do a career district probably 4 unless one or two get a crazy number of votes.
