Iris

I sat down in a comfortable chair next to the interview stage. An over excited Caesar bounced onto the stage, is orange curls bobbing wildly on his head.

"Welcome citizens of Panem to the 67th annual hunger games interviews!" The crowd cheered behind me, my stomach gave a small flip in excitement.

"Without further delay let us talk to our first tribute, all the way from District 1 its Diamond." Diamond stood up from her chair and walked into the stage, wearing a silver dress scattered with diamond sized jewels that reflected the stages artificial lights. I looked so much better. I stroked the soft feathers on my beautiful wings; I was going to cause quite a stir. Diamonds interview finished quickly and she was replaced by Rolex who chatted easily with Caesar.

"You're a handsome lad, got any girls chasing you yet?" Caesar asked, Rolex laughed

"Maybe Caesar or perhaps it's me doing the chasing?" The crowd ooohed and begged to know who he liked, he gave me an obvious wink. Creep, he was just playing up to the cameras. Morpheus clenched his fists beside me,

"I hate that guy, he was kissing the face of an Avox yesterday." I rolled my eyes,

"It's obvious he's like that Morphy, he's from District 1." The buzzer went off and Rolex walked of stage, I stood up, brushed the creases from my tight white dress and walked onto the stage. Silence greeted me as I lowered myself into the plush red chair. Caesar gasped as he took in my outfit, huge rainbow coloured wings, a dress that clung to all of my body, beautifully painted face, hair only an angel (or my prep team) could achieve.

"Oh my goodness, we are in the presence of a goddess." Caesar exclaimed, he bent down and kissed my hand. The crowd cheered, some standing to show how much they loved me. I gave a sweet girl giggle and waved at them.

"Tell me the inspiration for this master piece?"

"Well, my name is Iris and Iris is the Greek rainbow god so I chose to be the rainbow goddess." Caesar smiled,

"You really do look like a goddess. Now, we have already seen your quite lethal, an 11! Wow, but when everyone wants to know is why your own brother shouted at you when you volunteered?" I smiled and looked at Morpheus who was glaring dangers at me,

"Me and my darling bother Morphy-" I put an emphasis on my brother's pet name that made him glare even fiercer at me. "-made a deal that if my name wasn't read out he was going to volunteer. But I want to be a victor and I deserve to be a victor so I volunteered and broke my promise."

"But wasn't that a stupid thing to do; now only one of you can come home."

"Are you calling me stupid?" I snapped Caesar shook his head, his eyes flashing with regret.

"No, I wasn't saying that-"

"Good, you'd better not call me stupid, you said so yourself-I'm lethal." I smiled and gave a sweet girl giggle but the message was clear, don't mess with me. Caesar quickly changed the topic and we started an easy conversation about rich food and jewellery. Eventually the buzzer went off, Caesar gave a loud sigh.

"Ladies and gentlemen I could talk fashion forever with this rainbow goddess, but unfortunately her time is up. Iris, a lethal yet stunning tribute," I smiled and gave Caesar a kiss on both cheeks that made the capitol cheer even louder and then I took my seat beside Rolex and Morpheus. My brother stood up and walked onto the stage in a few bounds.

"Morpheus, the best scoring tribute in a while," Caesar greeted Morpheus like they were lifelong friends. Morpheus grinned at the capitol audience and I swear a woman fainted in the fourth row.

"Now, there has been a lot of heated betting going on in the capitol, you and your sister have been neck and neck for a while now but currently your 3 bets ahead of her. How does that feel?" My cheeks flamed and I balled my fists up against the arm of my chair, Morpheus looked right at me a cheeky grin spread across his face.

"Wonderful for the time being, but when I get out of here I think iris is going to attack me again like she did when I got a better training score than her." The audience gasped,

"Your sister beats you up?" Caesar asked, leaning forward in his chair.

"Yeah, she beats me up all the time. In fact, she's attacked me twice while we've been in the capitol and she threatened to kill me. But deep down, I know she loves me and I love my sister. We can easy win this if we don't kill each other." My eyes started to water with emotion, my brother had never said he loved me. The camera zoomed onto me and I grinned, giving Morpheus a loving wink. Morpheus laughed and the audience joined in.

"While we're on the topic of my sister…" Morpheus said, Caesar gestured with his hands to speak. Morpheus stood up and looked directly at Rolex. "Stay away from Iris, if you dare touch her without her asking you to I will break your neck and drain the blood from your body to water the plants!" The audience we're stunned into silence. Rolex rose from his chair and gave me a peck on the cheek. I punched him right across the face and he fell over, landing heavily on his back. Morpheus burst out laughing and the audience joined in. Morpheus's laugh was contagious. My brother sat down and Caesar finished his interview. All the while Rolex glared at me and pressed ice he had been given from his escort on his cheek which had already swelled into a nasty red lump. I didn't really pay any attention to the District 3 interviews because they basically blended into the chair they were that dull, but I didn't listen to Celina's. She was vain shallow and girly, she mostly talked about how pretty her stupid pathetic dress was. But what annoyed me more was the fact she gave me slight digs in her speech. I smiled all the way through it, but my eyes gave my emotions away. I was going to kill her, the camera zoomed onto me and both me and Morpheus at the exact same time smiled, he cracked his knuckles in a threatening matter, I flicked my hair over my shoulder and punched the palm of my hand with my fists. Celina gave a loud laugh but she seemed slightly nervous. Yeah that might be because she was dead tomorrow; I was going to do so much worse to her than Morpheus had threatened. And I couldn't wait.
