Lucy's POV

"See you at the chariots, where we look like total idiots."
I gave out a hearty laugh and said.
"See ya sis!"

R-i-i-i-i-p that was by far the worst one I almost let out a cry but I'm a Mason, I don't cry. They file my nails and paint them a lovely lime green. I wait another half an hour for the stylist. My preparation team say he is new. Cinna's half brother or something like that.

"Hi Lucy, I'm Darren. Unfortunately me and Johanna's stylist, Ezaph do not get on well after she cheated on me so you and your sister will not be identical. I daresay you'll be better looking." He gave me a wink and I smirked. Me and jo, we cared and loved each other but we were competitive as hell. I slipped the beautiful dress on. It was a very pretty, floor length dress with a bright green at the top with what I presumed was a faded leaf pattern. It then, as you moved down the dress, was a surprisingly beautiful brown colour. I was wearing brown high heels that came up my leg in a cris-cros to just below my knee. It was a perfect dress to represent our district.
My hair was in a elegant yet messy bun. A lime ribbon was rapped around my hair and a crown of what seemed like woven autumn leaves sat proudly on my head.
" Oh Darren. I look beautiful!" I exclaimed happily. My makeup was simple, a pale green eye-shadow and a brown eyeliner making my eyes look like little twigs and branches.
"Go show them that your a Mason, this year no smiling and blowing kisses, I want you to look like competition. Look untouchable. "
I nodded than smiled before giving him a giant bear hug.

"Hi Jo." I said almost bragging.
"I knew we were going to look awfu- wow hon, you look fabulous!"
"Thanks! You look.... ERM....dashing?"
We both erupted in giggles.
"Wanna make an entrance?" We asked at the same time. We both bursted out laughing again. We smashed the doors so hard they looked like they would fall of their hinges.
" Hi everyone! " if anybody wasn't looking, they were now. Haymitch smirked at us. We started to talk to everyone not waiting for a reply.
"Hi Mitchy, lay off the liquor!"
"Hi Flame girl!"
"Hi bread boy!"
"Hi neighbours!" We both called to district 8 and 6.
"Red wine and champaign are better than morphing!"
"Hi pretty boy!"
"Hi mags!"
"Hi nuts and volts!"
"Might wanna file your teeth Enobria ,they looking a bit blunt!"
"Try a wig Brutus. We are in the capital after all!"
"Oh COPYCATS! WE ARE RELATED hmm I bet you don't know what love is. Your too busy drowning in money and jewels."

Everyone looked at us strangely.

"Alright get back to your knitting!"
"Yes get used to it!"

No one looked away.

"Guys we know we are gorgeous but stop staring!"

They looked away immediately.

We got on the carriage.
" Darren told us not to look at them or to blow kisses." I muttered
"Ha!" She cried, " Like I'd ever give kisses to these peasants."

We rode through the doors. We were told to look untouchable.
















And untouchable we looked.
