Gale. His bright grey eyes flashed with excitement as he said "Dare!" before Finnick had time to ask the question. He consulted Annie, and between them they came up with a good enough dare.
"Gale, rival of Peeta, I dare you... To dye Cato's hair bright pink!" Finnick announced grandly. Cato was stirring, obviously about to wake up. His light blonde hair was done in spikes, but falling down. Obviously his hair gel wasn't the best.
Effie threw Gale a box that said 'Hot Pink Extra-Sparkly Instant Hair Dye by District 1'. She blushed at all the odd looks everyone was giving her.
"What? We always carry spare hair dye in the Capitol! What if you need to dye your wig?". She ignored the even stranger looks being thrown to her.
Katniss and Gale had a plan. The plan was that Katniss would shoot arrows coated in sleep syrup into the Careers' mouths. Then she would pin Cato down and read out the instructions while Gale did the dying.
But the plan didn't work. Cashmere used her mirror as a shield, and the arrow smashed it. With sharp pieces of mirror all over the floor, Clove, who had been in some sort of trance, snapped back into action and threw pieces of mirror at Katniss, Gale and everyone else standing near them. President Snow confiscated all the pieces and put them in Annie's Confiscation Box.
"Annie?"
"Yes, Johanna?"
"Why do you have a Confiscation Box?"
"I put all Finnick's portable tridents, makeup, hairspray, moisturiser, and gaming devices in it if he uses them when he's not supposed to."
"Oh my god! Finnick's wife treats him like a first grader!"
"If he's bad, he goes on the Naughty Step." Annie added, which made Johanna laugh even more.
Katniss and Gale had a new plan. Well, it was really the old plan, but Cashmere's mirror was in pieces in Annie's Confiscation Box and Glimmer would never risk smashing hers. This time it worked. Ten minutes later, Cato had bright pink sparkly hair that Cashmere had curled for him using Effie's curling iron. He was wearing the 'Blackmail Outfit' that Enobaria took everywhere that was Clove's punishment for any misbehaviour. It was a long pink princess dress. With some pins and adjustments, it just about fit Cato. Effie had done his makeup.
Cato went to sit by Thresh and Gale took some pictures of them. Then he posted the pictures on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat. The boys looked like a pair of crazy Capitol sisters.
Then Gale spun the bottle and it landed on...
I'm really really sorry for the late update! I've had my first assessments of the year at school but that's no excuse. Oh, and I want to send cyber cookies to the guest that replied to my author's note. Here you are - (::)(::)(::)(::)(::). OK, so my next oneshot prize to reviewers is the last few days in the arena in Foxface's POV. The prize is the same for my NEW HUNGER GAMES FANFIC, also on this site, called 'The Facebook Games'. Same username, same weird sense of humor. Oh, and if you review, PLEASE use an account otherwise I can't send you the prize!
