Those Last Days

Chapter 2:

I wake up suddenly and fall off the bed. I look around and see a beautiful master bedroom that could fit more than a hundred people in it if they all stood together, with a king sized bed stationed in the middle, with orange and lilac silk sheets and next to the bed was a bath robe, and my reaping clothes. I went to get off the ground, and realised that was a bad idea, I was still tired and dizzy from what had just taken place. I fall to the ground with a THUD. I sit against the smooth mahogany bedside table and try to reach into my memory. I don't remember climbing onto the tribute train, being placed in this room or how I even got into these clothes. I walk over to the bed and sit for a while, trying to remember what happened the past day, my sister was reaped... And I volunteered! How can this happen, she had her name in only twice. It has to be impossible. But reality dawns on me... I'm going into the games... The games... The Hunger Games.

After talking a long hot shower I eventually decided to search the rest of the train. I walked for about 5 minutes winding through corridor after corridor when suddenly I hear my name being called in a strong voice, "Indiana?" I turn to find a quite large and muscular boy with blonde hair, about 17 years old walking towards me. I look him up and down, he was quite handsome, but how come I had never seen him before? He finally reaches me and he starts talking, "hi, Indi right?," I nod ferociously, "I heard your sister calling you when you volunteered for her, that took guts," I felt like I was going to pass out, and it looks like I must have looked that way to because they guy ends up half carrying me half helping me to a nearby seat. I look up into his honey eyes and think of nothing else, "Indi? Indi are you ok?" I snap back into reality and say something smart like "uhhgh," he laughs. "I'm sorry if I upset you, I didn't mean to," he looks down, when I notice something strange about him, he's got that crooked smile that looks terrible on most but looks quite cute on him, I go to talk again but interrupts me "you know, we don't have to be enemies right, you can talk to me," I reply, "oh I wasn't ignoring you, I was just looking at y- outside," crap that was close. He smiles. "Ok then, well if you want to be allies, just knock on my door, it's always open." He winks at me and then leaves. I get up and go to my room, I walk into the bathroom, and look at myself, I'm all red and flustered, I hope he didn't notice, of course he noticed it so obvious. How come I have never seen him before, he mustn't live in my sector of district 7. Anyway, he looked athletic, and well built, he would make a great ally because even though I am great with almost all weapons, I am terrible at hand to hand to hand combat. I think this over for about half an hour, when I hear a knock at my door which breaks my train of thought. I open it up to find a lady with light brown hair and eyes as green as a hawk, and behind her grinning at me the boy I met in the corridor.
