"This is taking forever."I groan.My stylist Cole was getting me ready for the interview.Apparently it was important to look beautiful so as to capture the attention of the people.That would get me sponsors.
"Almost done."Cole replies as he works on my hair.
I open my eyes just a little but someone places a hand over them."come on!"
I sit still as they work on turning me into someone I'm not.
After a while Cole tells me to open my eyes.
I do as he says and the girl staring back at me looks beautiful.She looks like she's living in a perfect world with no worries.She looks....unreal.
"Stand up."I do as he tells me too.
I gasp as I watch my dress.Its ocean blue in colour and has peacock feathers designed on it.Its so silky and seems like water is flowing downwards.I spin around in it.Its definitely one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen in my life.
I smile and look at Cole."it's so amazing."
"I knew you'd love it."he smiled proudly."now go out there,the interviews are about to start."
I start heading out towards Austin who smiles and mouths the words 'woah.'

"You look like a barbie doll? Do you feel that way too?"Julius asks.
I scoff."barbie doll? Ha! No way man."
Julius smirks."so do you think you'll be able to kill anyone in the arena?"
"I don't think so."I reply which leaves him looking at me sadly."I know so."I finish with a smirk.
Julius chuckles."that caught me off guard,it really did."
I only smile in response.
"So this dress you're wearing is giving off a very peaceful and calm vibe."he says looking at my dress.
I nod."it sure is,I want my enemies to feel relaxed,I won't kill them slowly,I'll do it in a way that'll be less painful."
"And what's your secret?"He asks bringing his ear close.
"That I can't say julius."I smirk as the bell rings.
"Oh well,give it up for the not so barbie doll,Aqua Rivers from district 4"
I get off the stage as the crowd cheers.
I'm sure I'll get many sponsors.
I blow out kisses just for good measures.
