District 1 - Boy
Marvel.
This is a joke! Everyone here is hilarious, there's hardly anyone stopping me from victory - except district 2. Although I could probably take everyone here and district 2 would be the only problem, both Cato and Clove are bloodthirsty killers but I'm hoping they will both end up killing each other. Not that I couldn't take them myself, of course I could, but I would enjoy watching the two of them completely rip each other apart. And once they do, nothing can stop me, Glimmer won't be a problem she's weak for a start and spends too much time looking in mirrors than she does training, ha that slut thinks she can win this with pure looks.
Being completely honest I could say I'm a bit nervous for the games thinking of all the careers that failed to bring pride and more wealth to our district and instead ended up begging for mercy and dying to an outer-lying district. No career could not fear that maybe not even Cato. But even though I may be slightly doubtful nothing can really stop me. I'm Marvel. Once I've got a spear in my hand and the gong goes off nothing can stop me.
Honestly, I have everything! I'm funny, charismatic, good-looking, amazing with a spear and practically everything the capitol wants. Even in training now I can imagine seeing their picture up in the sky until there all gone and it's only me. I'm victor. I can see it already, Marvel Larson Victor of the 74th Hunger Games in shiny letters as I walk on stage as they scream my name and I watch everyone of these pathetic tributes die to only reveal me at the end.
It's all quite hilarious and pathetic.
My quite satisfying thoughts are soon cut out though as district 2 walks up to me his blonde hair and large posture examining me before exclaiming "District 1, got any skills this year we could use or are you as pathetic as you almost are every year?"
I raise an eyebrow 'ohh so district two thinks he's better than us because he learnt how to throw a sword around?' I want to bite back a comment about how district 2 isn't anywhere near richer than district 1 but decide against it and hold my tongue instead.
So I smirk and find myself replying "Please don't berate yourself too much two because you never know how quickly the game can change sides" my voice thick with sarcasm and sounding more threatening towards the end of it.
But district two doesn't seem so amused or keen to mess around anymore and instead folds his arms, flexing his muscles and nodding with his chin whilst replying sturdily "Spears? Not bad if someone didn't come up to you from behind with a knife, lets see one"
Scowling at his intention to overpower me I grab the largest spear there is and focus on the dummy letting my muscles relax then tense before brining my arm into place. And in one full throw with power in-forced behind it I let go of the spear and see it flying through the air and straight into the dummy's heart.
Bulls-eye as usual.
I turn around holding a fully impressed smirk to see district 2 shaking his head with fairness written all over his face whilst replying "Impressive one, just hope you can throw like that in the arena. With that settled I'd like to make an alliance, you know how it goes same as every year, unless you intend differently?"
My smirk gets wider and I can't believe everything is going my way, I was never worried off not getting accepted into the careers, I had the talent and knew district two wouldn't throw up the offer to form an alliance with district one, maybe district four if they were good this year, which seemed to be the case even if the girl from four lacked in strength she seemed to be pretty knowledgeable in things like nets and hooks but it was rare the arena required these things anyway.
The only case he every found these skills in swimming and fishing ever really useful was in Annie Crestas case when she was the best swimmer and stayed afloat on her victims body's just to stay alive. The game makers soon realised this was a bad idea for it wasn't really entertaining and made the games long and uneventful and made the young district 4 girl turn so insane they had to cancel her victory tour half way through.
I snapped my attention back to district two who seemed slightly agitated at my delay to reply so with quick humour I replied "And since when do plans ever change? Names Marvel but you can call me Marvellous if you want"
But district 2 didn't seem at all humoured and took my hand whilst replying "Cato, welcome to the Career pack district 1"
So I smirked and released his handshake which was rather gripping...
Because for me the games have just started.
