I didn't get enough comments, but I simply can't stand going forever without writing.

Sorry for the font change, I'm in Vermont, without wifi and Wattpad's being a butt, so I'm gonna copy paste from notes to Wattpad.

Chapter Five: Marvelous Mansions

"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

McKayla's POV

Two words: Homeschool Central.

Looking out of my window from the subway, we were in the underground "complex", better known as Homeschool Central.

This underground town housed all the homeschoolers of Destino.

It was small, about the size of 9 football fields all bunched together.

Each dash is a field.

Kay, sorry, love you, bye (End of Note))

In the center of this is a beautiful fountain, complete with a sparkling, silver statue, expertly shaped like a swan.

But this village is not a secret to us, simply underground, to cut us off from the riches of the homeschoolers.

The ceiling of this great underground cavern is roughly 1,000 feet high.

Each family lives in a mansion, conveniently stacked atop each other, in order to make room for all the residents of this marvelous place.

Grand glass elevators carry residents to and from the mansions.

To prevent a lack of fresh oxygen, Homeschool Central is rich with lush greenery and wondrous flowers.

And the ceiling, oh, being underground, there had to be a ceiling, so the town's people decided to paint murals of what North America, and Panem's terrain looked like before becoming separated.

Unfortunately, despite the luxury of this town's architecture, I can't say much for this town's choice in fashion.

You'll understand what I mean soon enough though.

My group stepped out onto the marble walkway of Homeschool Central and gasped at the sights before us.

Even though we had seen pictures of this place, nothing compared to seeing it face to face, live and in person.

And yet again, Kylie began flirting with Simon, Matt gave me upset looks in between admiring the scenery. And Zack... he stayed glued to me the entire time.

"You know, when I grow up and get married, this is the perfect place to start a family," Zack says.

What on earth would he say that for? It's not like him.

"Yeah, but where are you gonna get 5 thousand dollars a day to live here?" I ask.

"My lovely wife will work with me to support us," he said, as he rubbed my arm.

Gross!

"Get away from me, you creep!" I shouted.

I spotted a glimmer of... is that... frustration?

Why would Zack be frustrated at my reaction?

Zack's always been my nemesis, now he's gone over two hours without insulting me?

As we step inside a beautiful, ground floor mansion, which Simon explained to be the stylist house, the door slams shut, locking us inside as the lights turn off.

Hanna screams, and I see her silhouette being dragged away in the darkness!
