Chapter 2:
Train and Capitol
After the reaping is over they film and take pictures of me I step on to the train. I turn around after stepping in to realize that the door closed and we start moving, I jerk to the side-as usual a little clumsy and grasped the side of a granite counter top. After making sure I don't fall I head toward where Lina left to.
"You can do anything you want on this train until we half to get off! We will be in the capitol by tomorrow afternoon! Have fun!"
Could she get anymore annoying!? I decided to head to my room and sleep for a couple of hours. Once I woke up I took about an hour shower until the water started getting cold. I was used to cold showers-not showers jumping into our river, that was as close to a shower as I ever got.
After showering I went back to my room and tried to find clothes besides my reaping ones. I found a teal V-neck and surprisingly very comfortable pair of shorts. I only wore shorts one time in my life but my mother told me to change. She said she didn't approve.
I went out of my room to find something to eat. I was starving I didn't bother with breakfast today or even dinner the night before. Right as i stepped foot out Lina squeaked cheerfully,
"perfect! It's time for dinner!" I was relieved to hear her speak for once.
we had a salad as an appetizer, full meal was potatoes and file mignon, and for dessert we had a crumble coffee cake. The file mignon was a type of meat I never had before and spices I didn't know existed, nothing tasted more delicious except for the crumble coffee cake! It was like butter and sugar mixed together! I can't put words to describe this cake because its to extraordinary for it! I ate my piece quick and was hoping someone would ask if I wanted more but no one did, because I felt like vomiting.
After finishing dinner Capon was the first one to head back to his room. Lina was second, and I was last I just wanted to think a little before thinking of sleep.
As I was walking back to my room I passed Capon's room. I heard a little sob threw the door. I reached up to knock but than thought better not. You don't even know the guy what are you gonna say anyway "It's ok we will be fine." Your not his mom Flicka your going solo anyway.
It was almost full darkness outside, you could see hints of the sun if you squinted really hard. It was really pretty, like back at home. It was exactly like home. Once when I was six my dad came home around this time from work and he came running to me to give me a gift. A jar. I asked,
"Daddy what do I do with this?" a little confused.
"Tonight, you and I are going to catch fireflies!" he said excitedly.
"Yay! Mommy look what daddy got me!" That was one of the happiest days of my life… That's won't happen ever again now.
I head back to my room, as I walk to the bed I see a note
Here is a remote and disc if you want to watch the other reapings. Great! well, now I won't sleep until I see who my competition is. I reach for the remote and put the disk in.
In District 1 is Robust and Trypena. Robust has black hair, is pretty muscular by the looks of it has a slightly pointy nose, he looks about my age and seems pretty handsome.
Tryphena has curly long blonde hair, emerald eyes and looks like a total bitch.
In District 2 is Mason and Caterina. Mason has light brown shabby hair. a little less muscular but still has plenty of muscle and a very long unattractive scar from his chin to his ear. Caterina has short hair, lot's of freckles and to much muscle for a girl that looks Fourteen-years old. I hate girls that have to much muscle and a six-pack, it looks disturbing and ugly.
In District 3 is Gizmo and Katrina. Gizmo is very tall, has short blonde hair, a lot of muscle and looks scared. Katrina is very small on the other hand, pretty medium length brown hair and dark blue eyes.
In District 4 is Coris and Kala. Coris has short brown messy hair, tons and tons of muscle and the prettiest turquoise eyes I have ever seen. He looked about my age and couldn't get much hotter than he was to be honest. On the other hand Kala has short black hair, very serious and gray eyes.
In District 5 is Eli and Tricity. Eli is small and black. Tricity has blonde long hair, is cute and very snotty.
In District 6 is Trip and Lizzie. Trip is very small, black hair and cute like a four year old boy not like my age boy. Lizzie has short light brown hair, is really pretty, but a little to small otherwise she was spectacular.
In District 7 is Leo and Taiga. Leo is very attractive, he has blue eyes, blonde ear length hair and has the perfect shape face. Taiga is small brown hair that is halfway down her back, hazel eyes.
In District 8 is Woof and Emery. Woof is a little muscular and very awkward front he looks of it. Emery has red hair, extremely clumsy since she fell on her way up the stairs and is peppy.
I got distracted and skipped to me. I'm 5.8", smart, strong, curious, my parents are dead, my weapon of choice is a pitchfork and a double blade spear. I have dirty blonde hair and the most light blue eyes to the point where they make me possessed.
My name is Flicka Bluegrass and I am the 47th Hunger Games whether the luck is on my side or someone else. I believe I have somewhat of a chance if my curiosity doesn't get the best of me. I won't ally because I don't want to half to kill or be killed by a friend.
