Happy Hunger Games. As if, I thought bitterly.
"Yeah, I heard." The words weren't spoken harshly or bluntly, just filled with hollow resignation. "I'm Elizabeth. Liz, Lizzy, whatever."
I turned to one of the people buzzing around us. "What now?" I asked. "Are we leaving for the Capitol or do we get to say goodbye or something?"
To be honest, I hoped it was the former. I wasn't sure I'd even be able to face my parents as their only child? who volunteered to save her friend. And Alexa... What would she think of my choice?

(Oh boy... Yeppers. I back... for now.)
Storm nodded briskly. "Yeah, yeah. Sure. Nice to meet you both. Mind if I sit down with you guys? I have a few questions." For a few seconds, she looked actually...scared.

"Don't worry, you get to meet your family for now. Well, until it's time to leave that is." Someone said cheerfully. Sam nodded glumly.
"I figured so...Well, at least I get to see my brothers again...I guess." Sam muttered, and then followed the person to a well lighted room where he would be able to meet others.
People crowded around you. "Come on, this way to meet your friends and family!" They said. Everyone was cheerful. I mean, just being given a death sentence...how anyone could be this cheerful was...strenuous.
(You can follow the people that can lead you to meet up with others. Or you can go onto the train.)
(Also, just a wonder, what exactly was your token? Sorry if you said it already, but I missed it.)

"Thanks." Storm said, taking a seat. She sighed, and rested her head on the table. "First off...Don't beat yourself up. You may win, so keep cheerful. Second: I'm tired. Are you? I mean. Tired of the Hunger Games. There is so much that has happened with it why don't they call it off? Plus...It's almost a sport. And I don't like killing sports, no matter how much people tell me I should..." She sighed, and closed her eyes.

I sit up straighter. "Wanna go outside?" I say loudly.

"Go outside? Seriously? Now? We're on a freaking train!" Storm said, but got up. "I take that my cue to leave. See you..." she paused at the door, "later." she said, and walked out.
Silence donned on the car of the train again. Just the squeaking of wheels and sway of the train pushed by the wind was all that could be heard. The heavy grey clouds meant certain rain. Who knew how this Hunger Game would turn out?

I shrug. Didn't take the hint I guess.
