The Hunger Games: Yellow Flicker Beat

Chapter 13: District 1

     The first stop was at District 1. She got the bag that Effie gave her. It was a different bag. It looked nothing like the one she used at the 74th Hunger Games arena. When Carolyn first stepped into the district, she was overwhelmed by the luxury the district had. Carol looked amazed by the diamonds she saw. The kids were wearing fancy clothes compared to the kids back home. Carolyn also saw Glimmer and Marvel safe and back home. The two were wearing fabulous clothes and accesories. Carol compared herself from the rest. She was wearing a light blue tank top, jeans, and hiking shoes. Boy was that embarrassing. The camera people got every shot of Carol's bewildered expression. But just because wearing those kind of made her feel ashamed of herself didn't make her smile. Carol was all about being happy and thankful. Marvel and Glimmer looked at Carolyn suspiciously as if they knew her but forgot the name. Glimmer walked straight to Carol to have a quick chat with her. But since Carol didn't know what Glimmer was going to do, she moved back and gulped.

      "Don't worry," Glimmer assured Carol as she came closer to her. "I won't hurt you."

      "I believe you must be Glimmer," Carol said since she was the one who had found her body at the 74th arena. "and I know. You wouldnt hurt me."

       "If you were in the 74th games, well yeah I could have hurt you." Glimmer smirked with confidence.

       "Very funny," Carol spoke unsatisfied. "but not to me."

       "So you're a fighter," Glimmer spoke to the blonde deadly. "I didn't know that."

       This is more embarrassing, Carol gulped again. This is a bad example. Citizens from the Capitol are going to watch me and I don't want to humiliate District 12.

       "Not really," Carolyn foresaid. "I do apologize if I harmed you with my words."

       "A girl whose very apologetic," Glimmer noted. "Marvel, come."

       Right away, Marvel came rushing to Glimmer's side. The camera people got everything of what was going on. Carolyn tried to walk away, but the two tributes from the 74th games just wouldn't let her have her way. How wealthy and cruel District 1 citizens are, Carol thought angrily.

       "Where do you think you're going missy?" Asked Marvel as he snorted.

       Carolyn sighed madly. The people here think they're so full of themselves. They just think of themselves and not others. So disrespectful. 

       "If you don't mind," Carolyn began. "I'll be going my way."

       "We're not done yet." Marvel smiled viciously.

       When will this end?, Carol sighed. 
  
       "Say what you need to say," Carol said going on. "but make it quick."

       "Okay," Glimmer explained. "we'll be quick alright."

       Something unexpected happened. Instead of talking, Marvel began to punch Carol in the gut. But good thing the 29-year-old blonde was fast. She had managed to dodge it. Carolyn jumped up and made a flip in the air and landed behind Glimmer and Marvel.

       "Nighty-night." Warned Carol. She punched both Glimmer and Marvel in the face so hard, that they had blacked out. 

         The crew got what just happened.

         "Say, are you going to delete that part?" Asked Carol worringly.

         All of the crew nodded in agreement.

         Oh, boy. Carol put her right hand on her face. This will lead to a bad start. But good thing no else was watching them. It was already night. But Carol looked at where the diamonds where. How did those diamonds shine even when it's night?, Questioned Carol. District 1 sure feels like Cloud 9. Carol grinned thinking of her thought.
