Most people from the capitol were over the top, crazy, and amazingly outgoing. Their escort was no exception. Every time it seemed like she was going to pause for a second to allow for someone else to speak, she kept on speaking. Ariella caught a couple key tidbits of information though, like how her name was Coral Thou, the name of their mentor (Bara Tide) and something about how the would arrive in a couple hours. The words seemed to flow from her mouth like a waterfall, and pretty soon, Ariella had zoned out and was staring out the window at the forest. You could faintly see the blue glowing ocean, the sun reflecting off the surface like a flame. Longing filled the girls heart at the sight of the water, and Ariella would love nothing more than to escape from the train and jump into the cooling liquid. But no, she had chosen to come to the games. She would win, and eventually come back to her beautiful sea where she could spend all day spearing fish and relaxing in the warm waters.

The sound of Maverick trying to speak brought Ariella back to the train, her mind snapping back into a place where it should be; in the games. She couldn't help but let out a small chuckle at his sad attempt at cutting into the conversation, glad the mood was at least a little bit more light. It was time for Ariella to pull out the charm, and save the two of them from having their ears talked off. "Oh my goodness your dress!" Ariella said loudly, which caused Coral to pause for a second. She looked down at her dress frantically, thinking something was wrong with the bright fabric, before looking back at Ariella with wide eyes. Before she could open her mouth to begin the never ceasing flow of words, Ariella spoke up again. "Its absolutely gorgeous!" She gushed, softly touching the fabric on the arm. "My favorite part about being in the games has to be getting made over into the beautiful style of the capitol! I just hope my mentor and stylists are as talented as you are." Ariella finished, a genuine seeming smile on her face. Coral smiled, and Ariella braced herself for the flow of words that were surely going to follow. "How did I end up with the sweetest tributes in the bunch? Oh goodness, I bet all my friends are going to be so jealous of you two, I can't wait to chat with them!" Ariella let her go on for a second before the words she had been waiting for finally came out of Corals mouth. "I bet you're dying to go get your mentor! I'll be right back, let me find her!" A few more words were said as Coral walked into a different compartment, but finally the room seemed silent. "You're welcome." Ariella said to Maverick, a cocky smile on her face. Being a girl sure did come in handy. "But really, if we want to talk we only have a few seconds before Shiny comes back." Ariella said, gesturing to a door. It had to lead somewhere, and she wanted to be as far away from any capitol people as possible. The beginning of the games always seemed to bore her, and even though she was part of the action she couldn't't imagine how it would be any fun.

Announcement

I'm afraid to say, but I think I'm going to make a new forum for this Roleplay. I find that more than half of the people that joined this Roleplay aren't on that often. I would also like to revamp the front page, which I honestly rushed when I made this. When I move it, you can re-post your form(s) on the new page. If you've already started Roleplaying, then you can continue from where you left off. If you oppose to this or have any other ideas, please PM me.
Thank you.

OK, just let me know the name of the new forum

[akitcougar]

Seconding that. I still have my reaping post written.

[Mufa]

Alright. I'll start working on the new forum right now.
When I've finished, I'll notify you all on here and through PM.
It should be finished with the next two or three days.
Thank you ^^

[damn. just typed this cx

anna henry
age:fifteen - district:seven - gender:female - at:train - feeling:lost

anna henry didn't even take the time to place a face with a name as the male tribute for district seven was called, she simply looked ahead and when the time came, stuck out her hand and shook his. soon she was ushered into the large, looming, city hall type building and placed in a lush gold room. she sat down on a maroonish colored couch and leaned her head against the wall. she was going to the hunger games. for real. from her previous experience watching the hunger games, anna knew that they started the moment her name was called. if she walked out of this room with teary red eyes, all of the other tributes would consider her an easy target. so when her mother, father, and younger sisters came pouring into the room with tear stained cheeks and worried looks anna put up a brave face. cleo and selene clutched her dress, while her father sat rigidly. he was also shutting down emotionally, anna only hoped that she could put up the same believable poker face. after several minuets, peacekeepers entered and pulled the family out, once again leaving anna to her thoughts. the next people to come in were her minor family, her grandparents and cousins mainly. they sat around awkwardly, looking pitiful and exhausted. they left quickly and anna soon realized that she would probably not have any more visitors. she had very few friends and her family had already come. in fact, when the peacekeepers came to take her to the train station, she wasn't surprised. she followed quietly, she didn't question them and obeyed to the best off her ability. as they reached the station, their were cameras buzzing around and the boy was no where to be seen. she simply walked onto the train, her face as blank as she could make it. on the train, she was completely taken aback. it was nicer than the district building, and her mouth visibly dropped. the escort chuckled to herself and steered the young girl to the dining area, where her mentor sat quietly. she took a chair on the other side of the table and looked around. the walls where white and the carpet was white and the table was white and the chairs where white. it was a little overwhelming. when food was placed on the white table cloth, it added a pop of color and helped give anna something to concentrate on. once again the boy wasn't anywhere to be found and her mentor finally spoke up, breaking the heavy silence. "go on, eat up. you'll need it." the words cut through the air and anna simply obeyed. shoveling several different piles of food onto one heaping plate. there were green beans, mashed potatoes, and a dark meat. she ate all of it, feeling slightly sick afterwards. her mentor chuckled, "take a moment to digest, in a few we will start looking over the reapings. meet me in the next car when tour ready." he got up and exited the cab silently, leaving anna with the district escort. a rather frantic woman, would be an understament. she was a ball of nerves, simply crazy. anna took a moment to finish her tall glass of water and than stood up, causing the escort to look up with wide eyes. ignoring the woman, she went to the next cab and knocked quietly. she heard a muffled noise and took that as an 'enter'. the first thing she noticed was the large television screen. it was massive, the size of her quilt back home, at least. it was hung up on the wall, inbetween two large windows, which revealed the passing scenery. the world was going by fast, and was quite the surprise considering it felt as if she wasn't moving at all. she silently took a seat on the couch next to the mentor, focusing on the large screen which he was intensely watching. it was the district four reaping, and a young girl was called first. she couldn't help but feel grateful, a child would make-- her thoughts were interrupted as a tall tan girl volunteered swiftly. she had dark skin and dark hair and looked as if she was fresh off the beach. her voice dripped with false sweetness as she stated her name, "ariella cod," and took her place on the stage. anna rested her chin in her palm as the boy was called, this time a tall, strong looking blonde boy. no volunteers. 'great,' she thought, as the boy's name was announced, "maverick seaswell", 'the first two tributes I see, and they look stronger, quicker, and better than I do'. she glanced over at the mentor and closed her eyes. "look," he said sharply, "if you go into this thinking your dead, there's no chance for you. so whatever bull sh*t pity act you have going for yourself, you can cut it out right now." the intensity he spoke with scared the daylights out of anna. she looked up with narrow eyes and folded her arms across her chest. "sorry," she said under her breath, causing the mentor to stand up aggressively. "sorry? there's no time to be sorry. everything your feeling right now, the fear, the anxiety, the anger, shut it down. if you want to stand a chance it all needs to go. right now." his words hit sharp like a slap to the cheek and anna stood up as well, "what do I need to do." she said in an even tone, it was a statement, not a question. if he didn't want emotions, than fine. no emotions. he chuckled and sat down again, this time grabbing a piece of paper on the table and making a quick chart, "first we need to size up the competition darlin'", he said and raised an eyebrow as a silent question as to weather or not she would join him. sitting down and listening intently as he talked about the district four tributes, anna realized that this would take quite a while..

Maverick took another cookie he recieved from the plate, before setting it down, and leaning against the wall, as Ariella pulled her fake voice again. After only knowing this girl for about 45 minutes, he could tell she liked to fool people, and for unexpirienced people, they believed her. But her voice would always go high and sweet, and she would smile without it actually traveling to her eyes. Mave smirked as he rolled his eyes, and he chuckled and looked at the two. "I don't really pay any attention to fashon.." he stated as he stood up from the wall. "But I have seen the past games and i understand that the stylist for district four likes dressing the guys rather oddly.." he says, as the image from some year where the guy had a sort of tail over his legs. Mave shudders at the very thought. "tell me, do we have new Stylists this year? or are they the same from previous years?" he asks the capital woman, Coral might have been her name.

She looks up from her conversation with Ariella as she seems to take a moment to think. "Ahh this year I think four got some good stylists. I recall them telloing me how they recently studied works of veryb highly respected fashion trenders , and they have come up with a whole new hunger games look! Isn't that great! I mean, you guys will look even better than now! I mean Ariella, if we just died your skin a light pink! Ohh, and maybe som teal hair? And Maverick, ohh sweetheart you would look ravishing in some heavy gold eye liner and if we could just get your hair a gold color and dye your skin a lighter tone. Uhh, you wtwo would be the talk of the capitol and-" she kept going and going and going. But Maverick did not want to hear anymore. Just what she started talking about horrified him. Gold eyeliner? What in the name of Neptune is eyeliner? he thought to himself as he ran a hand through his sandy blonde hair. "Just thinking aloud though.." Coral ended with.

Maverick released a sigh of relief as he looked up at them. "Tell me Coral, what is your natural hair color?" he asked as he eyed the hideous "sea" green wig that she was wearing. It seemed to have little plastic fish in it, with a small thing that was supposed to represent a net over it. "Oh, well dear, I don't really remember. But who does?" she laughed with herself. This woman had obviously put too much make up on her, for it seemed to go to her brain. Maverick nodded, as he sized his escort up. She definitely was optimistic, I mean, that had to count for something.

(Must have missed that xD)
