My head. My head... feels so foggy. Did I pass out? I must be dreaming. Makes sense. My brothers bouncing off the walls screaming my name. I'll give him 5 more minutes.

"Finch!" I hear Rylan call out my name. "Come on! Hestia's baking cakes for us!"

"Ugh. Ok. Be right over," I say groggily.

What is going on? It's like everything around me is just a big blur. I get out of my seat, grab a cup of hot chocolate, yawn about 3 times, and enter the bakery. I burst into reality when I smell the sweet scent of blueberry muffins, and banana bread.

"Hey Finch, could you gimme some sugar?" Says Hestia.

"Like, a hug?" I reply.

"No. I mean the sugar from the baking cabinet." She says laughing.

I pass her the sugar, then ask her a quick question.

"Who's our mentor?" I say.

"Oh. Your mentor is Brites. He won the 64th annual Hunger Games. He is full of tips." Hestia replays.

Soon, a tall, dark man comes entering the room in a black suit and a white tie.

"Hi I'm Brites." The man says. "I will be your mentor for this years Hunger Games."

"Hi I'm Finch."

"And I'm Rylan."

"Pleasure to meat you Finch and Rylan. Now, lets let Hestia get done baking and let us talk about how to survive." Says Brites.

Three hours later...

"What are you two good at?" Says Brites.

"Okay. I am really good with a spear. I can hit the bullseye every time." Says Rylan.

"Well, I am pretty nifty with a knife, and I am really fast." I say.

"Good. Now, lets save that for the training center." Says Brites.

Training center... Oh yeah! That's where everyone gets to practice their skills to prepare for the next two weeks. I hope they at least have a couple of knives. That would be great. Suddenly, I slam myself against the floor. Apparently we have made it to the Capitol.

"Just in time," Hestia says running out of the bakery holding a giant cake. It looks so good.

"Wait, Give me two minutes. I forgot something in the bakery cart." Says Brites. I look around the station. All those ugly Capitol people. But, looks can be deceiving so I decide to wave at them and hope to get sponsors. I might actually have a chance of winning!

"Alright. Lets get a move on!" Says Rylan.
