Early in the morning I am sitting in the chair again with Flavius in the room. He gives me a pair of skin tight green pants. "These pants will make it easy to move in and will be warm during cold nights." He says

Then he gives me a comfortably tight brown tank top with a brown leather jacket and brown army boots. He brushes my hair back into a ponytail and applies a thin layer of simple makeup. A female comes and takes me onto a plane. I sit down. "Your arm please." She says. "What is it?" I ask

"Your tracker. Don't worry," she injects it into my arm. "If you win it will dissolve and will not work."

When we land we are spread out into different rooms. The door is locked and sealed and I am forced to wait in there until time. A feminine voice says "30 seconds" Then "20 seconds" and "10 seconds". There is a tube with a silver plate in it. I step inside assuming that is where I need to go. The tube seals around me and the plate raises slowly. After what seams like 5 minutes, light bursts into my vision blinding me for a moment. Then I notice in front of me the big wooden cornucopia with weapons and bags spilling out of the mouth. I look around and notice we are in the middle of a forest but with broken down Ancient Greek buildings. The cornucopia is in the middle of a dome like area. Then I hear Katniss say " Happy Hunger Games and May the Odds Be Ever In Your Favor, 60...59...58..." And so on until the trumpet sounds.
