 District Nine Train Station
The District Nine train station is part of the main transportation system that connects the districts to one another. People designated to go on special business trips are allowed to use these. Also, during the Hunger Games, the tributes take the train to reach the Capitol.

Avril was guarded to the train station. She refused to step foot on the train until Doc was around. She was going to stick by Doc's side the entire time just like Valentine told her. She felt a shiver go through her spine. She hated being here. She could feel the spirits of all the dead tributes walking back and forth along this area. My heart sank and I began to miss my sister but no tears. None until I was on the train alone. I wouldn't and couldn't cry until I was away from all of the cameras. I would not show the other tributes I was week. I couldn't. As I stood there I couldn't help but wonder........where in the hell was Doc!

Doc felt the closeness of the bodies around him... stupid peacekeepers he thought to himself as they took him into the train station. He looked around the large building never before seeing it. He sucked it all in just in case he didn't come back. He looked forward and saw the blonde hair of his partner. He elbowed his way through the peacekeepers with some resistance and wrapped his arms around the young girl. Let's do this thing... together. he said into her ear before pulling away.

Avril nodded and grabbed her partner's hand before getting on the train. It was big and fancy. She looked around mesmerized and saw the table of food, the velvet couches and the lamps everywhere then she looked at the boy. "I'm Avril by the way." Her voice was soft yet strong. She smiled at him and walked him to the table. It was quiet and where was blithe their colorful escort? "Did Valentine give you that?" she asked gesturing to the single dog tag around his neck.

Doc looked around mesmerized. He had never seen anything this fancy before. walking past one of the couches he ran his hand along it until his thoughts were interupted by Avril. "Oh yeah. My name is Damon but my family and friend calls me Doc." he said smiling at her his voice kind and gentle. "I wish we would have met under better circumstances." he said sitting down. "Oh this?" he said holding it up. "Yeah she did. She wanted it to be my token for the arena."

Avril sat down next to him. "Doc........are you scared?" She asked putting her head on his shoulder. "I am. There are 24 of us and only 2 make it out. What if we don't get any sponsors. What if we don't make any allies. What if one of us gets hurt?" She asked him. She pulled her knees up to her chest and sighed softly. She wasn't ready to leave. "I volunteered for my sister because she can't talk. The rumor is she's deaf but she isn't." She said softly before thinking she snapped up and looked at Doc. "Sign Language! That's what will help us! I know sign language!!!!"

Doc stiffened slightly as Avril layed her head on his shoulder. After a short time he took a breath and wrapped an arm around her. "Yes... i am scared. Anybody in their right mind would be... We all have family and friends that we may never see again." he nodded listening to her talk about the sister she saved. " hmmmm sign language? I know a little bit from watching you and your sister talk... Not that i am creeping on you guys but since i have noone to talk to... i tend to watch everyone and i pick up on things." He gently released Avril rotating his body and pulling his legs up into indian style. "I know herbs... plants... i made a medicine that helps relieve pain... i am also pretty good with a slingshot."

 Q u i n nXXP e n nDistrict 9 TributeQuinn couldn't help but feel useless in this situation. Usually she was very level headed and was able to solve any problem with a logical answer but this, this was a completely different situation. The Quarter Quell was always designed with the cruelest intent. This year with having families go into the games was definitely the worst of all the twists. Quinn could feel it was getting hard to breath as she tried to make it to the Train without passing out. The whole situation was becoming a blur. Watching her brother being chosen then being called up on stage. Her mother's face...oh the horror that was spread across it. Even worse was seeing all the color in her father's face drain from having them all up there on the stage with him. She couldn't help but wonder how in the world was he going to mentor them?
As she reached the cart she let out a sigh and finally let the tears that she was holding back fall from her face. She silent walked over to a chair by the window and sat, gazing at her District and wondering if she would ever see it again. She wasn't very sure if she even had a chance. She wasn't strong or fierce, she wasn't even sure if she could kill a person. Those thoughts were very disturbing to Quinn, she never had even thought of what it would be like to kill someone. Chills formed all over her body and more tears fell as she felt the presence of someone else come into the cart. She tried to nonchalantly wipe them away, hoping that they didn't see.

 A J A XxxV E R O SxxP E N N Hane's words were reassuring, but not enough. If I was to make it out alive, then two of my siblings would be dead, and I didn't know if I could live without any of them. We were lead by peacekeepers towards the train, and a very solemn crowd watched with pursed lips. I wished that they could somehow save us from this terrible fate. How could they just stand there and simply watch? There was more than enough people around to overthrow the peacekeepers that were in the area. Of course, if it were me in the crowd, I wouldn't do anything either. It was pathetic of me, and I couldn't blame the rest of the district for being fearful of the Capitol's power. Maybe during my times in the game I would be able to prove a point to all of Panem that these games needed to be stopped. How I would manage something like that, I did not know.
I kept close to Hane as we made our way into the train, and I knew that he was doing his best to keep composed, and I supposed that my sniffling was doing nothing to ease his guilt about being called to the stage. I wouldn't want to see the pain that I caused my siblings if it had been my named, and I was ashamed that I was acting so cowardly in front of all these people. I would definitely be marked an easy target, and that thought made me even more scared than I already was. I hadn't even left the district and I already wanted to go home.
