Clove

I grit my teeth for my last wax. Boy did it hurt! I wonder if Cato had to get waxed. Probably not, he was a boy after all! When my prep team finished hosing me down, they went to get my stylist whose name was Diamond.

When Diamond came in, I noticed she wasn't like the other capitol people. She actually looks kind of normal (well except for the pink hair!) she looked me up and down and I could tell she was making a list of pros and cons about me. Since I don't care how I look, I don't really bother what other people say about me.

"Well Clove you are beautiful no matter what you think. Hello I'm Diamond and I will be your personal stylist for the Hunger Games; also if you need anything at all you can come to me." Diamond said sweetly. "Now in the past people from District 2 have been dressed in peacekeeper like costumes, well, I don't want to do that and neither does Cato's stylist. Now you two both look like warriors and as you know District 2 was built on the remains of Rome, so me and Cato's stylist decided to dress you both in Roman, gold warrior suits." She adds.

"Super cool!" I say with a grin. Pleased, Diamond takes me to my costume and fits me into it, she says I look fierce and beautiful at the same time. I'm starting to like this person! As I look in the mirror, I don't see Clove the psychopath, I see Clove, a girl with a warriors heart!

"I love it!" I say.

"Good, now I'm going to take you down to the chariots where you can meet the tributes from D1 and D4!" she does just that. When I get to my chariot Cato is already there chatting to the D4 tributes. The boy looks weak and the girl does too, but I guess we have to have them as allies.

"Hello." I say politely they smile and say hello back.

"Clove this is Drake and Swish," says Cato. I smile at them again, no wanting to seem rude. Then out of nowhere, the D1 tributes pop up.

"Hello Clove, Cato, Drake and Swish! I'm Glimmer and this is Marvel! So, I guess we are allies right?"

We all nod. Glimmer has beautiful blonde hair and green eyes that make her look even prettier than before. The only thing letting her down is her stupid costume, I point that out to her and she agrees with me, I might have just made a friend! The boy Marvel is handsome, but super skinny, I wonder what his strength is, I will just have to wait and find out! He grins at me eyeballing me up and down looking like he wanted to kiss me. I hate him already!

"Tributes to your chariots!" the announcer booms.

"Bye!" Glimmer says to me nicely and I say it nicely back. After 1 minute we are off, But I didn't expect the tributes from D12 to be on fire!
