I step out not the platform with Salria and josh, there are hundreds of men and women some with cameras wanting a good piece of footage, and some just hoping for a close up look at two children who have been just about garenteed death in the next three weeks.
We finally reach the the train, "ahh!" Salria says "quite a crowd this year."
The train has a table of food some that I have never seen before, there is a delicious smell wafting around the room "dinners cooking!" Salria says in her Capitol accent, her pitch always going up at the end of a sentence. There is a table in the middle of the room and a large couch over to the side.
We feel the train zip off, "well children, this is the sort of luxury you will be living in the next week" I stop myself from saying and from then on we experience living hell.
Salria looks as though she expects us to comment but we stay silent," Well" she says trying to fill the gaps, " your rooms are this way.
My room has a large bed with white blankets and gold pillows, I also have a set of draws containing some very basic clothes, T-shirts, some jeans like the ones my father wore some other plain pants, and a dress for when I get to the Capitol. My room also has a small chute on the wall with a keypad and menus next to it, I also have a bathroom.
I go in to have a shower and see about 100 different setting buttons, I carefully take of Diana's dress and shoes then plac them on a rack also containing a large white fluffy robe , like the ones you see the tributes dressed in before they go to the prep room. I step into the shower, and press a button with a picture of and apple on it, apple scented foamy soap sprays out from either side of the shower coating me in white fluff. Suddenly a blast of warm water comes on washing me clean. I push another button and my hair is washed. I step out and press a button outside the shower a small, machine comes down over my head that dries and detangles my hair.
One more button sends a warm rush of air over my body drying me. I put on my bath robe and step out in disbelief, this is what capitol citizens ge everyday, in district seven you would once a week go to the community showers if you were lucky , and half the time there water is freezing cold.
