The Selection

Chapter 3

 A hovercraft comes down and picks me up. They take me into a room and give me a shot to make me go to sleep. When I wake up I have been placed in a room and there are no more bruises on me.

For the County arena, State arena, and Country arena I just wait it out and a couple people die in my hands. There were ten people from each Continent that lived. We finally get to train and do interviews. It takes about a month because there are seventy people that need to train and get interviewed so the interviewing takes about three days.

Each continent gets to ride in a limousine without a roof that seats ten people, our mentor, and the driver. The people in the North America limousine is Olivia Ross, Ashlynn Soto, William Newman, Lily Perkins, Dylan Silva, Angelina Price, Maddalyn Campbell, Timothy Graves, Liam Gonzalez, our driver Teddy, and our mentor Newton Kowalski.

The people here in Washington don't care about the first couple games but the Country games are a little bit of a big deal and the World games are one of the biggest deals.

The first limousine is Africa, next is Antarctica, then Asia, then Australia, then Europe, then North America, and last is South America.

We are all dressed in fancy Capitol clothes. The boys are all wearing matching black tuxedo's while the girls are all wearing different dresses. I am wearing an off the shoulder gorgeous red elegant slim fitting dress, Angelina is wearing a long red dress with lace bodice, Maddalyn is wearing a white sleeveless high neck lace crochet bodycon dress, Ashlynn is wearing a red lace dress that is short and has short sleeves with a white pearl necklace, Olivia is wearing a red lace up back dress, and Lily is wearing a black sleeveless lace A line dress.

As we drive through the city I can hear people shouting "North America!" as we wave to the people who will be our sponsors. When we finish diving through the town we circle around the square and President James Maxwell makes his speech as usual. I don't like our president, he's just too evil it seems like. I watch as South America comes through the doors and then that shut the doors. We get out of the car and then walk over to the elevator and we all get in a huge glass elevator. We get to floor six and we all get out and go to our own rooms. I walk into my room and I get my own king sized bed, a closet full of amazing clothes, a bathroom with the most advanced technology.

I walk out of my room and go to the sitting room with our mentor and we are to watch the other tributes from the other countries. We spent about six hours watching kids kill other kids.

Vanessa Phillips is good with a bow and arrow. Amelia Olsen is good at disguising herself. Ava Mitchell is smart and quick. Emma Mills is good with knifes. James Coleman is good with a trident. Noah Lynch is good at survival. Victoria Carpenter is good with about any weapon and is possibly trained. Gabby Shaw is good with hunting. Gracia Lawson is good at hiding. Isabella Rose is good with an axe. Ryan Harvey is good with a slingshot. Peyton Hall just hides out the entire game like me. Renée Smith is good with plants and roots. Addison Maez is good with any weapon. Adam Cave is good with any weapon. Audrey Brown is good with traps. Chloe Lynch is like her cousin Noah and is good at survival. Juliana and José are good at hunting, traps, and are skilled with a lot of weapons.

The other people I wasn't paying attention to because I was watching William Newman watch me. When we were done we went to the dining room to eat dinner. For dinner we have a bunch of varieties of food some of them include pasta with lamb ragu, sushi, lasagna, pasta, fettuccine Alfredo, pizza, watermelon, Chinese food, grilled cheese sandwich, mashed potatoes, chicken, French fries, tater tots, and Italian food. While I was eating I saw a couple quick glances from William Newman.

After we ate we were told to go to our rooms and get some rest because tomorrow was going to be a big day.
