I see people. Is that my prep crew? I think it is. They have crazy skin colors. Maya's is dark green. Degya's is light purple. Elsa's is pink! There hair is the Same color as their skin only different shades. Degya makes my nails shiny not dull. Elsa does my hair and Maya washes me. Maya scrubs hard. It hurts. I meet my stylist Madeleine.

"You will look like a farmer." She says. I stare at her. She hands me a dress.

"Put it on!" She says. I do. As well roll through the square all I can think about is how rude my stylist was. Afterwards, I go to my room on the 11th floor. I sleep.

The next day I train working on my weapons skill. I find I am very good at shooting slingshots but I don't know how that will help me. I keep trying things over and over again. One day I see Clove stab Cato with a spear. Cato grabs a knife. While he trays to strike Clove I steal the knife from him. I laugh. Cato and Clove have to leave. I strike a conversation with Finch. I can join their group! I wanted to join. I smile. Well work together for a while but I don't know what to do for our private sessions.
