Once outside the main doors, Prim and Rue grinned at each other. "Now what?" Prim asked. Rue paused.
"Um – I think that's the Student Union." She said pointing to a tall building on a hill.
"Let's go there." Prim suggested eagerly.
"Hey, girls!" A bubbly tall girl with blonde hair and a bright pink shirt called before walking up to them. "Are you two interested in joining Tri-Delt?" The new roommates shrugged. "Well, I'm Glimmer and I'm one of the dorm liaisons! Come to our open house Orientation Weekend for more information!" She handed the girls a sheet of paper.
"Oh, thanks." Rue said eagerly.
"You want to join a sorority?" Prim asked curiously.
"Nah. But this paper has a campus map." Never mind that the only helpful labels were: Rec Center, Student Union, and arrows pointing toward the various frat houses. "We'll figure it out." The girls waved at other incoming freshmen who were carrying their belongings into the various dorms. After a while, they approached two and three story redstone buildings with large windows. The girls assumed they were classroom buildings.
After a while, they got to the Student Union decked out in red and black decor: Panem University's colors. "Do you smell food?" Prim asked sniffing the air.
"Yeah." The girls went inside and walked around the main food court eating candy handed out by various student groups. Soon their pockets were bulging with flyers from all different clubs. The most popular group was the archery club that was serving pizza.
"Hi, Kat!" Prim called as Katniss aimed her bow and arrow at a target on the wall.
"Won't you mess up her aim?" Rue asked.
"No." Katniss replied sinking the arrow into the bullseye. "Prim, don't get two slices of pizza, you'll stuff yourself at dinner anyway."
"How do you know?" Prim asked around a slice of cheese pizza.
"Because they always cook the best food on the first night." Katniss replied.
"Hey, Breadboy's girl." A deep voice chuckled before cursing and staring down the wrong end of an arrow.
"Care to say that again?" Katniss asked glaring at Cato Harrison: the president of Alpha Kappa Delta fraternity where Peeta was a member.
"Your breadboy was looking for you." Prim and Rue giggled.
"He knows I'm at this booth for the afternoon." Katniss muttered. Several people screamed as she let an arrow fly imbedding itself into a wall.
"Missed." Cato muttered.
"No, I hit the bug on the wall perfectly." Katniss pointed out. Rue and Prim looked at a beetle that was pinned to the wall before gaping at Katniss, Cato paled and ran out of the food court. "Don't tell the admin people I did that." Katniss muttered. Prim winked and nodded before she and Rue headed back toward their dorm.
"Who wants to play frisbee with me?" A voice called as the girls walked next to a large green space labeled athletic club fields. A chorus of female voices cheered. "All RIGHT!" Prim gasped as a very muscular tanned young man stood on a wooden platform. Next to him were a pile of frisbees labeled: Panem University Rec Center. "Well, if you haven't heard of me, I am Finnick Odair studying Health and Exercise Science! I also happen to be a student trainer. Who wants muscles like this?" As he flexed, the crowd of girls cheered. "Sorry ladies, these muscles are taken, but I can help you all tone your own muscle groups to your satisfaction!" He tossed a few frisbees into the crowd. Prim and Rue giggled as they caught one.
"Thanks, ladies!" Finnick called as they continued down the sidewalk. "Zumba 5:30 on Mondays! Just scan your student ID!"
"Panem University is for the top students in the country." Rue pointed out. "I think it's also for the weirdest." Prim giggled.
"Yeah, and that includes us!" Once back in their room, they began the task of organizing their clothes and bath stuff so they could freshen up for their first dorm dinner.
