𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐒𝐋𝐄𝐄𝐏 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐄𝐓 𝐆𝐎𝐓 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐏𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘 Anfisa Starvok busting into her room to wake her, getting her ready for some last minute tips before she headed to the hovercraft that would take her away to her fated doom.
"I'm sure you will be just fine, I have a feeling." Anfisa tried keeping her eyes as brightened as possible, appearing influencing to the teenagers.
"The hair curlers must've been too tight on your head, then."
"Be nice," Chris elbowed her sloppily, finally starting to get some sort of soul back after days of fear and anxiety. Scarlet pitied the little boy, the same innocent soul was about to be taken away again.
"Do we go to the cornucopia or run away?" Scarlet asked her mentors who stood with nerves waving through their bodies.
"Wait, we're sticking together?" Chris questioned, sounding surprised.
Chiara and Scarlet shared a chuckle as the brunette glanced at her district partner, "Of course, we are."
"I'd suggest Scarlet goes to the cornucopia but don't go too far in, get the bag with food and water, not the knives," Finnick started, glancing at Chris, "You should run as soon as the cannon sounds, find Scarlet later, stick together."
The two gulped, Chiara chimed in, "I'm not going to tell you who to be allied with, but remember to never be afraid to get your hands dirty unless you wanna die, it's called a bloodbath for a reason."
She parted ways with Chris who was escorted by Anfisa. Thoughts rummaged through her mind like planets circling the solar system, she could be dead today. Or she could win it all with luck.
"As I told you and Chris before, no victory without sacrifice," Chiara whispered, seeing Scarlet's glassy eyes.
"Hopefully, I'll be able to style another dress for you someday soon, Scarlet," Rome stepped out of the elevator which just opened up with a chime, and took a step towards her.
"I'd really love that," She smiled, giving her stylist a one-sided hug for his attempt to cheer her up. "You never disappoint me, you know that?"
Before she could step into the elevator with the countdown calling thirty seconds, Finnick softly reached to grab her upper hand, making her glance at the part he touched, up to his soft eyes.
"Take care in there." He reminded.
Scarlet couldn't help but bring her usual smirk to life, although her eyes remained ever-so soft, "Are you worried about me, Finnick?"
