I am rushed by my prep team. They introduce them selves as Tigress, (who I remember as a stylist many years back) Alex, Zena and Lilianda. Tigress explains to me that President Paylor is doing things a little differently this year. Tigress used to be a stylist way back but she got to many surgeries and went past the line of gruesomeness so Serena Crane didn't want her as a stylist because Tigress scared people. Tigress looks like her name states. She has long whiskers and is striped also, her nose has been flattened she looks like a cat, she even purrs when she talks. Zena looks quite... Loud. she is orange all over. Her makeup is orange. Her hair is orange. Her clothes are orange, Heck even her skin is orange. Not only is her appearance loud but her personality and voice is loud too. Alex is quite ordinary. Alex where's a brown shirt, jeans and joggers with no make up, short hair and pale skin. I cant tell if Alex is a boy or a girl. Lilianda is by far my favourite,  she has tanned skin, she is wearing a purple shirt and a violet skirt, she looks about sixteen but I cannot be sure, some of us capitol people look about fifteen but are in there late twenties. Lilianda is wearing light makeup, Quite ordinary for a capitol citizen. I ask Tigress, "So, are you my stylist?"

She simply answers", "No."

""Then who is?" I question further

She sighs and answers, "We don't like to think of ourselves as one leader and three followers, so we are all your stylists, Okay?"

"But then who will..." I begin to say but she covers my mouth with her hand before I can finish

"Talk time is over now" she purrs

"Fine" I attempt to say but her hand is still over my mouth so the sound comes out wrong but she understood.

"Good" she purrs, "Now its time to make you look pretty." I zone out for most of my preparation for the chariot ride, and when Lilianda tells me to look in the full length mirror I am astonished, I know these guys are miracle workers but still. I am wearing a bejewelled gown that sparkles whenever I move, high, sparkly heels and my long, blone hair is up in a bun which is covered with jewels, there are huge glistening earrings on my ears.My eyes sparkle

"Oh, gosh guys. I look amazing. Thank you" I say

"Make us proud Amanda" Lilianda says. I nod and leave the room to go find my brother
