Third person POV

It had taken the group a couple of days to reach the capitol, during that time, Anastasia and thresh got closer and they were introduced to their mentor, seeder who was an older woman but absolutely the kindest souls Ana had ever met, even after the horrors of the games, she managed to smile and be positive, which seemed alien to Ana and thresh.

When they reached the capitol, thousands of people gathered to welcome them or atleast that's what lilac told them, to Anastasia it was them preparing to claw and fight their way to catch a glimpse of the new tributes, to stare and point at them as if they were animals in a zoo. Still she knew she had to get sponsors so as the train slowed, she rose from the plush air chair she was seated in and approached thresh, who throw her a curious look. "Get up and come to the window" she stated "why?" He asks in a gruff voice "so they can gawk and stare at us " he says, answering his own question "no it make us seem approachable, nice y'know, to get sponsors"
They heard seeder from the dining table call to them "she's right, they'll love it "

Ana walks to the window, dawning her perfect and practiced smile and waves to the crowds, whose cheers and scream amplify tenfold. She's pretty sure she saw someone faint too. Thresh approaches the window, but unlike Ana he doesn't smile or wave , but the capitol crowds still seem to love it.

They got off the train and started making their way to the vehicles that would take them to the tribute centre, but as she stared walking through the crowd, her eyes caught another persons, if her memory serves her correctly , it was the boy from 2 , Camino, or was it cate, no it was Cato, that was his name. They held eye contact for a fraction of a second before she felt the stare of his district partner, a pretty brunette who seemed to be analysing her every move, thresh slightly nudged her to keep walking but before she looked away the boy send her a wink and started walking. She felt her cheeks heat up as she quickly walked towards the vehicle and practically had to claw her way up past the outreached hands of the crowd .

Once she and thresh arrived at the tribute centre they were separated and put in sterile looking room. Ana was forced to strip and the put through what felt like hours of tortuous plucking,pruning and waxing. Afterward she was put in a different room and left to her own devices for the time being, well until an eccentric man waltzed into the room and introduced himself, "hello there darling, oh your gorgeous.. my my what an exquisite job I'll have to do this year" the man said quickly and without taking a breath continued " oh where are my manner, my name is Bellamy , I'm your stylist, now let's get to the design I've got so far hmm?"

After about half an hour they had settled on a design and Ana was grateful that he had let her decide and didn't force her into a hideous disaster of an outfit. In the end they had decided to lean more toward the plant aspect of her district than the crops as every other stylist did, so her dress was made to seem to be made of flowers and live plants.

She felt pretty and she loved it.

Once she was finished getting ready, Bellamy stood to offer her his arm "ready?" He asked. Ana paused for a moment before nodding "as I'll ever be"
