Rooftop

[Emily]

Here you can watch the capitol. Don't try to jump off, because you'll be zapped. Enjoy!

Erik went out and sat on the rooftop. He reached out, trying to touch the night sky but an invisible forcefield stopped his hand.

[Emily]

Air came out of the building. She was pleased to be outside.

[Swiftfire]

((This is kinda confusing... can't there just be one roleplay? It's hard to keep track of where everyone is... just saying...))

[Emily]

((ummmmmm, okay, but you need to come up with a name for it. And the arena, chariot ride, and intervies get there own))

[Swiftfire]

((Like, one big roleplay? No smaller roleplays? ...At all?))

[Emily]

((It'd be like inside the place where the tributes stay, the chariot ride gets it's own, so do the reapings, and the actual arena roleplay, also I think it'sd be cool to do the interviews like in the book))

[Swiftfire]

((Yeah, I wanna do the interviews too, but... it still seems like too many. Whatever, if you wanna do it like that, I guess I shouldn't complain.))

[Emily]

((FINE!! NOOOO!!! Intervies. Come up with a good name for the hotel thingy roleplay where the tributes stay, and then the others will be erased))))

[Swiftfire]

((Wait! I want the interviews! And it's just a suggestion, you don't have to do it if you don't want to...))

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri walked out to the edge of the building and noticed the other two tributes there. He sighed and looked away, assuming that they, like everyone else back in District One, wouldn't talk to him anyway.

((I lke the oroof top haha))

Rose walked out onto the roof top, smiling at the night sky which she knew she wished. She saw two other tributes together, and one by himself. Rose bravely took the risk of walking over,
"Uhm, hey." she said to Dimitri, sticking her hands into her pocket.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri turned to see a girl talking to him. He gave her a small smile, something he rarely did. "Hello." He looked at the capital and sighed, remembering his own district. "My name is Dimitri. What's yours?"

[[deleted user]]

"Rose." she replied, leaning against the stone edge of the building, careful to avoid the shield that would zap-kill you in a second.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

"It's nice to meet you Rose." He watched as she leaned against the edge of the building and paused. Why was she even bothering to talk to him? Everyone in District One thought he was a dark and creepy kid because of how he looked.

[[deleted user]]

Rose cocked her head and crossed her arms, "What district are you from?" she asked curiously.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

"I am from District One..." He turned to look at her sadly. "My district is probably happy that a tribute like me got chosen. No one will care if I die." Dimitri looked at the stars, grief consuming him.

[[deleted user]]

Rose stared at him sadly, "You will have supporters Dimitri. Even if you think no one will care, they will." She told him, stepping closer. "I'm from District 12." she added on softly at the end

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri looked at Rose and shook his head. "You are the first person I have talked to in a long time, well besides my family." He looked back out at the Capital and gave another small smile. "What is it like there? I bet it is really cool, not all busy like my district."

[[deleted user]]

Rose smiled faintly back at him, "Everyone needs someone to talk to. Even in these sick games." She muttered the last part on.
She shook her head, "Eh, I don't know. My family is kind of poor, but it's beautiful in the winter. All the snow covering the mountains and such"

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri nodded and looked back out at the Capital. "I totally agree with that." He listened as she described the land and closed his eyes trying to picture it. His face became peaceful and happy, something that no one in district one had ever seen.

[[deleted user]]

Rose smiled at him, "Some game, huh?" she said softly, running a hand through her dark hair, sighing and looking down.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri sighed and nodded. "Yeah, it just makes me mad that they never stop to think about the families whose lives they are ruining." He watched her and sighed, noticing that she was a really pretty girl. He desperatly hoped that he would get killed before he had to kill her.

[[deleted user]]

"Of course they don't. They never do. Because they know they are safe in their fancy, clean capitol homes with their too perfect liv-" Rose said hotly, her temper flaring and stopped suddenly, remembering there might be a chance of microphones or cameras. She looked to Dimitri apologetically, "You know what I mean." she said with a faint shrug, a small smile tugging at her lips. Thoughts ran through her mind. Rose thought suddenly of how cute he looked to her, then felt like smashing herself in the face. She'd have to kill him for petes sake.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri nodded and glanced around quickly. "I know exactly what you mean." He looked up at his black hair and sighed, messing it up and then flattening it back down.

[[deleted user]]

Rose shook her head gratefully and stood in a paused silence for a few moments. "It's pretty out here." she murmured, picking up a pebble in front of her and throwing it at the shield, watching as it bounced off and whizzed past her.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri watched as the pebble bounced back and nodded. He looked up at the stars and frowned. "I have been preparing for this my entire life, but now that I am chosen for the games... I think I am scared."

[[deleted user]]

"I sure as hell am...I mean...it's a blood bath out there." She said, choking on the last words.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri nodded, his gaze traveled down to his feet. "I don't want to kill anyone..."

[[deleted user]]

She sighed, "Me neither. I'm not that type of person."
Rose laced her fingers together, leaning on her elbows against the edge of the rooftop wall. "How about this.." she began, "You and me, allies. We'll take care of each other and watch each others backs, and when it comes down to 3 or 4 of us, we take our separate ways. That way, because truthfully, I really don't want to kill you, it might make it easier...I don't know. Your choice." Rose said hopefully, raising her eyebrows

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri looked at her and nodded. "That sounds good to me."

[[deleted user]]

Abby and Erik walked out onto the rooftop. Erik sighed and looked up at the stars.

[Lynx ~ 10/1 Never Forgotten]

Otto walked onto the roof. He walked over to the force field and looked hard at it. Trying to figure out how it works.

[[deleted user]]

Rose nodded her head and held out her hand.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri took her hand and gave a small smile. "I will do everything in my power to make sure you make it back to district 12."

[[deleted user]]

Rose smiled, then frowned slightly, "Whoa, wait. No, you can't do that. I don't want you to make sure I don't die. Just until it get down to the bottom of us. You have so much more out there for you than I do."

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri shook his head. "If you were there when they called my name, you would understand. The people usually feel bad for the tributes that get picked, but when they called my name all of the people looked relieved."

[[deleted user]]

Rose glared at the ground and set her jaw stubbornly, fire burning in her eyes. "They can't do that! They can't think that! You are a part of them! Family? Friends?" She said empathetically, "It's not right. Not fair Dimitri, when you win the games, or even if you die, which I won't let you--you'll be welcomed back as a hero. You have to be."

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri looked at her, sadness in his eyes and sighed. "I never really talked to my family, and no one in the district ever concidered me a friend. I was always the 'creepy boy who wore black.'"

[[deleted user]]

Rose frowned, "One, black is cool. Two, even though..." her voice became sad and she looked away, "we are technically supposed to be enemies, I don't find you creepy, more like an ally. Friend."

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri looked up at her and smiled, then frowned at the last part of what she said. "I don't want to be your enemy. I can't fight against a girl that is so... pretty." Dimitri looked away, a faint blush coming onto his cheeks.

[[deleted user]]

Rose bit the inside of her cheek and looked away, hiding a blush and saying, "I don't either." She smiled at him

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri looked at her and sighed. "I am sorry... you probably didn't want to hear that from me..."

[[deleted user]]

Rose looked up at him pursing her lips, "No, I liked it. No one has ever called me...pretty. I have three brothers, so I get called a bunch of different names." She shrugged, smiling.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri smiled and nodded. "I have an older sister and a younger brother, they both seem to hate me." He looked at her and tilted his head, thinking about something.

[[deleted user]]

Rose shook her head, actually laughing. Something she figured she wouldn't be doing much of.

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

Dimitri smiled when he heard her laugh. "I still have photos of when my sister dressed me up when I was a young kid."

[[deleted user]]

Rose leaned against the stone rooftop wall, "Do you have them here? I'd die to see those."

[Darkdawn, I am watching you...]

"Actually I do... I keep them in my jacket pocket as a memory." He took out a photo and handed it to her. "This is when she wanted to make me a princess."

[[deleted user]]

Rose raised her eyebrows when he pulled out the photos, "Oh nice!" She said, taking the photo and smiling at it, "You are a very handsome princess." A blush crept onto her cheeks at the realization at what she said, she handed him back the pictures, "My brothers liked to tackle me, and stuff jam into my pillows."
