((Chariots then interviews, I believe.))

I sat in the back of my chariot, smoothing my dress and adjusting my crown. I didn't know exactly what was going on, but I vaguely remembered watching the chariots on tv. I knew that there would be a lot of people sitting in the place and I would have to do my best to make the crowd love me. Except for one little glitch, I didn't want people who wanted to watch me kill or be killed, to love me. I wanted Zima and Mom and Dad and my Computer...

I placed me hand in his, then took it firmly. "I know. Everything from now on is just you and me. No one else matters." I whispered. I pulled my mask off of my face and let it set on the top of my head. I looked into Joesph's eyes. "Oh, and Hunger Games Tip Five; don't trust me." I said, then laughed.
((-lesigh- I will try. <3 Yes, chariots, then directly to interviews, I think. Then training, then interviews again. I'm re-reding the book now, so I will be able to find out in a day or so. ^^))

Joesph laughed as well, "I wouldn't dream of it." He felt the horses lurch to a start and they began to trot. Joesph clamped his fingers tightly around her hand, "remember. No one else." He stared ahead, focusing on the future. He didn't care about Luke. He wouldn't lie for the Capitol's enjoyment. In these Games, there will be no lies.

"Close your eyes, Kit. Ignore the crowds... Ignore the crowds..." I coached myself and the Chariot began to move. I held Joesph's hand tight and watched as we exited the building. I just caught the first glimpse of the hundreds of thousands of people before I gave in and pressed myself tight ageist Joesph's chest, my head just under his chin.

"Ignore the noise... Ignore the noise..." My low voice crept louder and more demanding as the screams of the people grew louder. "Come on, Steve, ignore it." My own use of the name Steve brought a small smile to my lips.

"You can do it, Steve. Come on. You can ignore it, Steve." I began to feel my face lift up off of Joesph's chest, and my body unwinding. In a few moments I found myself looking back out across the ocean of people. I looked back to Joesph for a moment.

"Stay with me." I pleaded with him and my hand squeezed even tighter on his hand.

Joesph frowned, "never." He whispered, squeezing her hand back. "Together forever, remember?" Their hands were hidden from the crowd, and Joesph wouldn't mind keeping it that way. He didn't really want the world to be freaking out that District Four had a pair of hopeless romantics, only to be split up by the terrible Games. The people were screaming mindlessly, but then again, that's all they did.

The horses continued to go down the isle, and the farther it got, the more Joesph began to gain nervousness. The stage was only minutes away, "Kit..." he whispered, "I'm not ready to die. Since this is our last moment before the Games, I want you to tell me it's okay." Hot tears welled in the corner of his eyes, "I want you to promise me that you'll never leave me. Tell me I'll be fine." The tears spilled out of his eyes now, and stared ahead, "tell me that we can go home, and be together forever..." Silence. "Please."

((This is more than a "little crush" we were planning on. xD))

[[Yeah. Sounds like husband and wife.]]

Vega consoled himself inside the big chariot. Him...? In front of all those staring, giant eyes? 
"I'd like to get off. I quit." Vega whispered. Dale cackled. "There's no backing out now. Actually, you never had a choice." It was cloudy, but warm. Yet, Vega felt cold. He was missing a part that he needed. It felt like a pothole in his stomach. He needed love. Sure, he had a crush on a girl he had seen had been in the Games but, he didn't even know her name. Who would like a quiet person like him anyway? He slid his bottle of homemade poison out of his suit pocket. [[BTW, when I said suit, I ment tux. :D]] Vega had an immunity to most poisons, considering his mother had fed him on poison instead of milk. When he was a newborn, only a few drops in milk. It gave him a feeling that was warm. It reminded him of his mother's love of trying to protect him from his father's death. From poison. He sipped from the bottle and slipped it back into his pocket. Oh well. He'd get that fuzzy feeling when he looked the girl from the trees or at the interviews. He only hoped not to puke from the crowd ar her looks. That was unlikley.

I looked up to his face. I took his chin gently in my hands and turned his face so he was forced to look at me. I stared deep into his eyes.

"You are not doing to die, Joesph. I promise you that. Once this is all over, you'll get to go home and be with your family." I said. My eyes showed complete confidence.

So it's decided then? Bob asked me, which almost caused me to punch something. He always had to ruin the moment, hu?

Yes, you moron. I hissed at him. A final touch of emotion rested upon me. If I was going to die, I was going to die for Joesph. He had to win. I was going to be sure of that, even if it meant me drawing my last breath for him. Just as this mood was settling on me, I felt our chariot slow. It was time for the interviews. Joesph and I needed to get out of our chariot. I slowly exited the chariot backwards, careful not to let Joesph out of my sight.

((I hope this is how they did it. I honestly don't remember xD))

Joesph's showed sadness, but deep down he felt angry. He'd volunteered to fall in love with a girl, only to be torn from her in death? He shook his head, "nothing would be the same. Leaving the Games, without you. I-" A loud blaring voice cut him off. "Happy Hunger Games!" His blood froze. Time to meet the other tributes.

Shyne waved uneasily as she and her fellow tributes from her district rode along with her on their district's chariot. She looked around, the blush on her face not needed, for she could feel her cheeks getting warm. She felt lightheaded. Like she was about to faint. You cannot faint. I thought to myself. You'll look weak. Look scared. Don't show if your weak or not. If they try to kill you, they'll be sorry. I looked into the bright lights. No spots appeared in my vision. Usually it burned to look in the light, especially my eyes. I watched as my face appeared on a tle="" href="http://www.sullenandhostile.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Katniss-Fire.jpg" target="">banner. I looked at my self. tle="" href="http://stylebust.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/hot-pink-make-up-style-5.jpg" target="">Eyeshadow. That was it. Whatever Capitol mixture that was, it worked. I didn't have to squint. I looked behind me. I could see as far as the last Chariot, District 13's, came out of the building. I could see out a few people on it, but I only seemed to notice one. Now I had to squint. I looked hard, and saw what looked like to be someone in a suit, with a wig? My friend elbowed me and I looked forward. "Don't look back, idiot!" she muttered under her breath. I shook my head to clear my thoughts. I saw other faces on other banners. I noticed that I was the only tribute from District 1 on a banner. Why? Did the President know something about me that nobody else knew? So he could make people hate me? Love me enough to help me win and then he could assasinate me on live television? Don't be stupid. I thought. I heard Captiol people cheering. Millions of them, atleast. Waving, cheering. As the chariots began to file out, I had a feeling of dread come over me. I didn't look up, because I knew who was perched there. The President.

[[Now Shyne thinks the President is trying to kill her or do something. By the way, I know Caesar would be like, 78 by now, but I reeeeallly want him to be the interviewer person. Just pretend he had like, a bunch of face-lifts and whatnot? lol.]]

"Why yes."

Lol. Possibly these questions, but variations of them?

-So _______, have any lovers at home?

-____________, How do you feel about the games?

-Your Dress/outfit is very pretty, does the crowd want to see it? [You decide! :D]

-________, the boy/girl on/with ________! [Ending, usually]

Just some random questions, remember interviews are now 2:00 minutes because they have to go through so many tributes.

[[Uh. I'll use those. '_']]

"Time for your interview." Dale said smoothly. "Interview? There's an interview?" "Of course. You also get to meet the other tributes." Vega swung the door open and got out. He sat in the chair near Caeser. 
"Hello. Your name is?" Caeser asked him. "Nightingale. Vega Nightingale." Saying this always made him feel at home, considering his mother used to talk like that. "So, Vega, do you have a lover at home? If you know what I mean." This was a touchy subject for Vega. He had never had a crush on someone until he had been chosen for the Games. "Kind of. A girl in the games. I haven't talked to her or even learned her name. All I know is that she has glossy black hair." Vega noticed he was starting to drool and swiftly wiped it away. The timer went off with a bing. The time had been fast.Caeser had drawn out the question. " Vega, The boy who's a bird! Vega walked off the stage, his cheeks red with embarrassment. On his way out, he saw her. That beautiful girl. He did something thing that was very unlikely for him to do. He winked at her.

There were only a few people ahead of me; the other 4s. I wasn't scared with Joesph holding my hand. I knew that we were safe, so long as we were together. The the tributes talked for what seemed like a few minutes, but I heard nothing. It was my turn now.

I released Joesph's hand and began to walk up to Caesar. I didn't look back for him, because I knew how much heart break that would cause me.

"Aah! Our lovely Kenania Ladorath. What a beauty, wouldn't you say?" Caesar asked the crowd as he kissed my hand. Everyone started screaming and clapping. Caesar silenced them with a hand as a master might with a well trained dog.

"So, my dear Kenania," Caesar began.

"Kit, please." I said with a warm smile. He laughed.

"Kit, then. Many people would love to know; what do you think of the games?" He asked me, tilting his head to the side slightly.

"Well, I personally think they are wonderful. I've watched every Hunger Games more than once, each time my heart sang with pleasure." I said. My voice was being an odd form of joy, warmness, and delight.

Come on, Steve. This isn't want Jacob told us! Bob told me. I was trying to stick to the plan, but Caesar was just making it come out.

"Aah. So I see. Do you have any family that will be rooting for you back home?" Caesar asked me.

"Well, no, not really. I do have one friend, though." I said.

"Please, do tell us who this is." Caesar begged me in his own way.

"Well, his name is Darek, and we met once in school." I lied. We had met poaching.

"Darek? That is a very nice name. Now that you mentioned school, I'm sure that a beautiful young woman like you would have no problem with the boys; you seem like they would have more trouble with you!" He laughed and I joined in. "So, I must ask, do you have any lovers?" Caesar's eyes gleamed.

"Well... Yes?" I said, and the crowd erupted with laughter at my question of the "yes".

"I'm sure everyone would like to know. May you shed some of your dazzling light?" He asked me.

"I would love to, Caesar. Well, his name is Joesph, and he is the most loving, caring, and the second handsome-est man alive." I said. "But I'm not sure if he is much into me..." I said with a small frown. The crowd boo'd.

"Well my dear, who wouldn't be into you?" He asked he with light eyes. I laughed half-heartily.

"I was hoping everyone." I said, then laughed falsely.

"Do go on." Caesar urged me.

"Well, he is a wonderful man and he has these ocean eyes that just take you away with their tide..." I let out a sigh of joy. The crowd aww'd.

"Oh my. He seems just your type!" Caesar said with a laugh. "Okay. We only have a few more moments. You look very gorgeous tonight. Would the crowd like to see your dress?" Caesar asked, and the crowd exploded once more. I grinned and got up. I began to twirl around, my mask hiding the amount of hatred on my face.

"Ooh! Careful there!" Caesar warned me as I began to loose my balance.

"Ha ha. That was fun!" I said happily.

"Yes, yes. I bet it was." Caesar said lightly. "By the way, earlier you said the second handsome-est man alive. Who is the first?" Caesar asked me.

"You, of course." I said with a giggle that was most unlike me. The crowd went up with cheers, oohs, aahs, awws, and every other thing you could think if.

Then an almost silent timer went off in Caesar's pocket.

"Kenania, the girl born from the ocean's beauty!" Caesar said, and jutted my hand up into the air. The crowd was on fire with applause as I walked down the steps and stood out of the way.

(( I hope this is okay. :U))

Joesph froze as Kit said his name. Lies. All of it. She was only pretending for the stupid Capitol's sake. Angrily he broke the leg off a chair and took a deep breath. Kit said he was so amazing? She'd see how amazing he was dead. Preparing to drive the sharp end of the wood into his heart, someone pulled his arm back. A Peacekeeper confiscated his stake and pushed him through the door. Grumbling to himself, he cheerily mounted the stage and sat in a chair next to Caesar. "And you are?"

"Joesph Wolfe."

The crowd went insane, and Caesar had to fight to keep the noise down. "Joesph? The second handsome-est man alive? Well then, this is quite the turn! Kit, is that your friend? Or is she as beautiful as she sees you?"

Joesph paused, "I...I love her, Caesar. If she dies in the Games, I will personally kill myself, and as I die I will lie next to her and hold her one last time. She's everything. I never had a loving family, or friends, really. She was the only one who ever became a friend, or more than that..."

The crowd was a mass of tears and moans now, much different from their usual clatter. Caesar frowned, "that's...that's terrible. I'm very sorry."

Joesph tried to smile. "I am too."

Caesar quickly changed the subject, "what do you think of 120 tributes this year, Joesph? Or may I call you Joe?"

"Joesph is fine, thank you. Hmm, 120 people? I guess you can say this will be a year no one will forget!"

Caesar laughed, "very much so. So, Joesph, how do you like the Capitol?"

"So beautiful."

"It's very beautiful, isn't it? What do you all think?"

The crowd erupted with whoops of, "yes!"

Joesph laughed, "I think the crowd may agree, hmm?"

The timer went off, and Caesar smiled, "Joesph, the boy with the eyes of the ocean!" 

Everyone was screaming, clapping and crying as Joesph left the stage, and went back into the room. He sat on the chair he hadn't destroyed and waited for Kit.

As I stepped out on to stage, I shielded my eyes from the bright lights of flashing cameras. "There's our little princess" The man in the big red chair clapped his hands, smiling. Suddenly, everybody was clapping and the noise was hurting my ears. I covered them, tears starting to run down my cheeks. The man silenced them. "Awww." I crowd sighed and Caesar, I remembered his name, asked me too sit down.

"So..." He checked a piece of paper. "Avalia, is it weird to be the youngest person in the games?"

"What?" I asked timidly, looking up at him. "I'm the youngest person? In my district, you mean... right?" I asked.

"Nope, you're lucky. You're the youngest in the entire game."

"But I don't wanna be the youngest." I muttered, feeling my face grow hot with embarrassment. I didn't really have a filter for things and shouted out. "If there are 120 people in the game and you're telling me that there is not one single other 12 year old?"

"There is a 13 year old, but no 12 year olds." He glanced at the crowd as if to say What a poor girl. I glared daggers at him.

"So Avalia, How do you feel about the games?"

"I...I HATE them." I forgot everything Beetee had told me. I was about ready to throw a temper tantrum. Why would someone ask something like that to a 12 year old girl who was forced to compete.

"Yes, well, I'm sure you'll do fine. May  we see your dress." I stared at him, shocked for a moment, until I came to my sense and stood up, clicking a button on the palm of my hand. I had wires running up my arm to a pair of mechanical faerie wings. When I pressed it, the flapped and a whiring noise filled the room as beams of light glanced off them and turned silver, spreading beams all over the room.

"My, my. Your stylist is talented." He mused. I gave a tiny smile, which seemed to make him happy, and turned the wings off.

"Avalia, the hunger games own faerie!" I left the stage and ran into Beetee's arms, crying my eyes out...

[[I'm timeskipping after this. :D]]

I stood nervously in my
tle="" href="http://0.tqn.com/d/shoes/1/0/U/a/gold_shoes.jpg" target="">shoes and tle="" href="http://pull.imgfave.netdna-cdn.com/image_cache/133318526542011.jpg" target="">dress. Apparently Ernesta lost them. I didn't believe it, but now I had no choice but to wear his other dress and shoes. I was going to trip. Right whenever I get called, walking onto the stage, tripping over myself. I ran my hand through my tle="" href="http://www.longhairstyles.org.uk/long_hairstyles_pics/longhair_braid.jpg" target="">hair. Now it was tied into a new braid, and I swear it was cutting off the circulation to my head. I heard an immense amount of cheering, then heard a muffled, "Vega!" Then, I watched as Vega walked past. Then as soon as he winked, I had to grab something. I was going to fall over. That's it. Sphere stood behind me and gripped my shoulder. "You can't pass out now." she whispered. I took out the braid. "What are you doing?!" she snapped in my ear. I threw the tie down the hallway and relaxed as my hair fell back to it's normal place. "Ernesta is in the crowd! He's going to skin you alive as soon as he sees you on stage!" she muttered. "Like I care." I muttered. Then, the crowd went silent. I took in a deep breath. I stepped onto the steps and walked onto the stage. I didn't dare look at Ernesta. He was somewhere in the crowd, watching me. I took a seat and smoothed my dress. Caesar put his hand up to silence the crowd, before beginning to speak. As if he practiced all of his lines, he asked, "Are you Shyne?" I replied, my voice starting to shake. "Yes." He smiled and took my hand. My first instict was to slap him, but I didn't. He grinned, "You don't have to be nervous, this is a very great crowd!" As if in signal, the crowd erupted into cheering. I struggled hard not to roll my eyes. "So, Shyne, is there a boy you like?" My cheeks began to grow warm. "Why, no..." He could tell I was lying. "Come on, with someone like you, there's got to be someone!" I said nervously, "While there is this one guy. But, I don't know him. He probably hasn't even seen me until tonight." Caesar smiled, "Well your dress is stunnning. I'm sure there's a talented stylist out there that's smiling at you right now." Now I looked out into the crowd. I saw him. He smiled, and made a motion with his finger. Spin! He mouthed. "Well, it's awful nice, Caesar." Caesar grinned, "I'm sure everyone's dying to see!" The crowd cheered. I took in a deep breath and stood up. Then, I spun around until I was so dizzy I needed Caesar to help me sit down. "Shyne, your dress!" I looked down. It seemed to change from Silver to Gold in the light. It also shimmered. So Ernesta did do this on purpose. "I'm just...so scared for the games." I said aloud. Caesar's eyes seemed to shine with sympathy. It's an act Shyne. He doesn't care if your eaten alive or your head's cut off. "While, I say, you can go out an win. Then, that lover of yours can be together with you." I said under my breath. "That won't be happening." The timer went off. I let out a silent sigh of relief. He took my hand again and kissed it. Act again, Shyne. He nearly yanked me up before saying, "Shyne, the girl who's looks are darker than the moon, but heart is as bright as the sun!" That was quite a mouthful. An act. Again. I smiled, then took one last spin, before half running, half walking off the stage with my hands holding dress up over my shoes. I ran past Sphere, giggling. She eventually caught up to me. "He certainly doesn't know that you can skin a person like a pig!" Sphere laughed. "Good job. You look weak. But what were you thinking with your lover thing? It was comedy gold!" I frowned. "Sphere, it was real. That was the only thing that was real." my voice started to become louder and more angry. "Me loving someone is the only thing that is real! I'm going to die fake, Caesar is making me look fake, the girl who's heart is bright as the sun is fake, it's all fake!" With that, I took of my shoes and threw them a few feet across the room before walking into the elevator and closing them in Sphere's face.
