175th Hunger Games: Sequal to 150th Hunger Games

Interviews

What.The.Hell?

Everyone is jumping around, smiling and hugging me as I stare at my score.

A 12.

"Like mother like daughter.'' Reina says. I just smile. I expected it slightly. Victor is hugging me and I ask him to come to the roof. We slip away and head to the roof. "What did you do?" I ask Victor. "I threw some knives, sliced with a dagger and impressed them by backfliping and throwing knives." "Good job." I say. We smile and hold hands. "So, tomorrow the Interviews and then.." "The Games." I groan. "Well, try and win.'' Victor says. "Cmon, lets go down to dinner and then rest." I say. We head back to the table filled with food. I enjoy a dinner of mashed potatoes and meatballs. Then I head to bed. I lie down and close my eyes. I wake up to Mum standing by my bed holding a plate with soup and chicken on. "Laia. The Interviews is tonight and you need to impress a bit. Just be yourself and dont insult the Capitol. Have fun." Mum says. She gives me my breakfast and leaves. Ok. I eat and look at the time. Its 10:00. We are supposed to go down to get ready for the Interviews are at 2:00, so I have plenty of time. I head out and see Mike and Essene watching a Tv programme called "The Capitol's got Talent.'' I see someone with a rainbow afro wig singing like a cat dying. No talent at all. I spot Victor over by a slushy maker on one of the counters. I go over and see him making a orange slushy. "Hey." I say. He smiles and asks if I want to make one. I follow the instructions and make a strawberry slushy. "Lets eat these on the roof." I say. We head up there, slurping our drinks. We sit down looking at the people walking and driving around. We are drinking in silence until I hear a voice say "Its 1:30 now. You should finish those soon." Me and Victor whip around and see Derick smiling at us. "God Derick, Scare the living daylights much" I say. We finish off our now liquified slushies and follow Derick. Its 1:50 so Me, Victor, Essene and Mike cram into the elevator and press a button. We whizz down and our stylist's await us. "Hey Laia." Cinna says. I follow him to my make up people called Nelle, Saphira and Daria. As soon as Cinna leaves they start to comb my brown hair and put some fake red and orange streaks in it. Saphira starts to apply my make up and Daria leaves Nelle to do my hair and starts doing my nails. After 30 minutes they finish. My lips are blood red and my eyeshadow is black. My nails are red with yellow sparkles and my hair is down. Cinna comes in to dress me up and takes me to the changing rooms. He hands me a red flowing dress that in the dark is just plain red but in the light it sparkles with orange and yellow. I put it on and smile. "Its beautiful." I say. He smiles and takes me to my seat. I wait as one by one the other Tributes get interviewed. Then its my turn. "Introducing the daughter of the Godess of Flames, winner of the last Quater Quell, Laia Kilster!" Wilbert shouts. The crowd cheered as I walk onto stage. "Hello Laia.'' Wilbert says as I sit down. "What a beautiful dress."

"Thank you." I say. "Now, What people really like is your training score. What did you do to earn it?" He asks. "Wilbert, thats between me and the Gamemakers, isnt it?" I say. A Gamemaker yells "Thats right!". "Oh well, how are you enjoying yourself here." Wilbert asks. "I love it. Its really luxurious and you guys are so lucky to live like this." I reply. "Yes we are. Anyway. So Laia, Is their a special someone in your life." "Yes, and there is a slight problem. You see, The person I like is Victor. I just hope he wins and I do to." I say. Their are some wolf whistles and the buzzer goes. "Well, Thank you Laia!" Wilbert says. I smile and walk off. I hope that went well.
