The chariots brought everyone's district one, by one, back behind that black door again. At this time I got a good look at everyone's outfits.
I must say District One and Twelve look the worst because of just how dull or too much the outfit looks. Everyone else pretty much just looks like Finn and I, badazzly, stressed out.

I don't see how the Capitol actually enjoys wearing this all day for their whole lives, but when District Four's chariot strode off, behind the black door once again, I could of sworn I saw a feel death eyes of jealousy towards my ugly dress and I. Is the Capitol really that harsh... like I know the enjoy watching everyone poorer, and duller then they are fight to the deaths in the Hunger Games, but still, it looked like they were going to create the hunger games right now over my dress.
I'm just thankful that didn't happen, as all the other districts follow behind or in front of mine behind the black door again, as it shuts close and the cheers become louder or satisfaction becomes bigger towards each district and sponsors for tributes.

Finn climbs off the chariot first, then helps me down as well. We then walk back into the red carpeted room where we find Xzzliea and a random Capitol woman is has short red hair in a bob, with a big yellow bow as a head band. Her face is pale yellow and she has golden mascara, orange eye shadow, lots of blush and deep red lipstick.
Her outfit is a short, tight dress, that has sparkles everywhere.The dress is red, the colour of her hair.

The lady runs up to Finn and hugs him tight. almost tripping on her seven inch, golden shoes. "Great Job Finn, I see sponsors in your future, sponsors!" The lady stops hugging the walks over to me and stares with a very stressed smiles, sort of like mine. "Gorgeous, Ms. Thomsping! You should be proud of your stylist."

I nodded my head then walked up to Xzzliea. "So now what?" I ask. He smiled then looked at the ground, "Thank-you Kitty, for the niceness, that you brought to this room." he first said to the lady, who I now know that's who Finn's stylist is. "And now," he continued to answer me. "We all go to District 4's 'apartment'."  Apartment? I found that confusing, only thinking that I'd stay and some little room in the cellar or something, but I was then proven wrong as Xzzliea, Kitty, Finn and I, all went into the elevator and walked into a space much bigger then a 'apartment'.

This space was huge, the ceilings were high, the lights were grand and the future was strange looking.
From the door entering the space, what I could see is giant windows, the kitchen, living and huge dinning room, on different heights so they could be split but still in one room. There was also a hallway  on the kitchen level, where there was Jane watching the Avox's make dinner.

"Jane!" screams Kitty with a giggle and runs up to her, once again tripping over her heals. Jane was now wearing her pj's and her hair down, showing how curly it is.
Jane turned around on the chair and watched Kitty run up to her then looked at Finn, Xzzliea and I. "Jane! You should of seen Maria and Finn! Sponsors! Awesome...!" Kitty ran out of breath and sat down beside Jane on the stool.

I walked up to the kitchen as well and sat down beside Kitty, Finn did the same. "Xzzliea did an amazing job on Maria's dress." said Kitty catching her breath.
Her statement hit me in the head. I hadn't thanked Xzzliea for the dress yet, but when I turned around he wasn't there. I guess stylist aren't supposed to be here, and I soon figured that out once Clover came to the kitchen from the hallway and asked Kitty to leave.

Clover was still wearing the same clothes as she wore earlier, instead of changing into her pj's and smiled cheerfully at everyone as we sat down at the dinning table. Unlike the train's dinner, this was short, but the food was more and delicious, it was.
Around 8:30, Clover asked everyone to head to bed, because tomorrow would be a busy day *smirks*.

Finn and I got up first with Jane and followed her up the hall so we could find our bedrooms.
"OK, Finn yours is right here." Jane pointed to the right side of the hall. "and Maria yours is across, mine is beside if you need anything." She then smiled and went into her room, shutting the door behind.

"So," said Finn as I started turning the doorknob. "What are you doing tomorrow in training?" I slouched in disappointment and turned around. I had no clue, me winning was hopeless I could already tell.
I missed learning weapons in school for the three years I didn't go, so I asked him the same question as me answer.

"Well, I think I'm going with a bow and arrow, probably show off how strong I am, or probably the pathetic approach and train by myself so the other tributes would think I would be easy to kill." I nodded.

"I guess I might try out knifes. The seem simple to hid, easy to pull out if you're in quick danger, and I guess the rope station." I shrugged at Finn, and he shrugged back and we both went into our rooms.
On my bed was a fresh pair of pj's made out of a smooth silk, I put them on quickly, turned off the lights then slipped into bed.

There is a lot to think about in the next few days. The horrors, deaths and tears that would be coming is unbreakable from your mind once you watch but I have to witness it, no matter how many fears I have... and now I'm asleep, having nightmares already.
