Kylee
I walked up stairs to the top level as several tributes were on the elevator. My mind was cloudy and twisted as I thought of how the other tributes would handle this, seriously, a 12?
My errant locks brushed into my eyes and I moved them out of the way when someone grabbed my wrist and I was slammed into the wall. Rough hands smothered my screams, clamping my mouth. The assailant chuckled darkly about my feeble attempts to free myself. Like I was going down without a fight. I tried to knee him but he knew my plan and pressed his hips against me to prevent it and trapped me against the wall. Towering over me was Cato, the career leader. I cursed every fowl name I knew, bucking wildly, but he just smirked me, my hands shackled above my head, when he breathed hotly in my ear. "I wouldn't do that if I were you." My heart skipped a beat and I looked up at him. His hair was perfect, as usual, and his icy blue eyes scanned me over. "Do what?" I tried to keep my voice steady as I addressed him when he took away his hand. "You must of been very impressive to get a 12." my cheeks grew red and hot. Thank goodness it's dark so he couldn't see. "Not fainting I hope?" Darn, he saw my cheeks. "Let me go." he lightly took a piece of my hair to examine it, rubbing it between his fingers. "You've caught my attention and that is very, very bad." Cato's voice had a cold yet velvety edge to it as he stared into my eyes. "I said let go." Cato smirked at me. "Move away." I said to him. "On your request I'll get closer." Cato's face was now a centimeter from mine. "There is a bull's eye target on your back and it's getting bigger." Then when he was satisfied I wasn't going to bolt he slowly moved his muscled body off mine, releasing me finger by finger. He turned around and walked away, leaving me stunned against the wall by myself. What the...!

Cato
Ha. Let her figure that out. I was trying to get into her head. Or was I? That thought worried me. I told myself I was getting in her head but for what reason did I want to be in it? Enobaria and Brutus would be mad if they heard the little, and I quote, little part of me that thought her...formidable and maybe attractive. Don't worry, I told myself, she is a distraction and you'll kill her in the bloodbath.
I won't have to worry then. But until then, I'll make her unable to focus.

Kylee
Who does he think he is? I sat looking down the balcony, rubbing my bruised wrists as they burned. Son of a tracker jacker. We had one last training session and I knew I'd be with him or the other girl since careers don't train together.

Ah great, my luck. Cato walked into the elevator and stood next to
a man named Titus. I felt his stare burning my back but I refused to meet his eye. he says something to Titus and they both laugh. The nerve of them... Little Red shied away and hid behind me. Poor thing, she won the 73rd games only because had the medicine to fight off the infections from these muttation lizards. Cato glares at me as I comfort Red and this time I return it.
"We are going to be practicing wrestling, I will name your partners." Blah Blah the lady rants down the list. "Pit and Cato, Ribbon and Red," Ribbon looks at Red maliciously and Cato smirks at Pit. "Finally Kylee and Johanna." Johanna was a girl from 9 that was wicked with an axe. Oh for the love of-
As soon as I stepped onto the mat Johanna slammed me down. I kneed her in the stomach and we quickly switched spots. Yay. Victory.
Cato totally slammed Pit down so so hard I became dizzy.
"Oof, I have no hope Kylee." Pit patted me on the back good-naturedly. He was my district partner and a good friend. Next it was Ribbon and Red. Ribbon slammed Red down. As soon as the whistle blew Red fled to hide behind a pillar.
I had to wrestle again and again until I was the top girl. Now I was supposed to face Cato. "How good is that hiding place Red?" I called to her as I backed away. Everyone laughed and Red came out to stand by me. "Good." she laughed. "So?" the lady gestured for me to step onto the matt and I rolled my eyes. "I rather go to the arena in one piece." Cato smirked and the lady said I didn't have to wrestle him.
At lunch time Ribbon sat down near me followed by the rest of the careers. "So...How is your hair so light and swishable?" she begs. "I dunno because I'm not on speaking terms with hair products." I reply. All the careers groan as Ribbon pesters me about everything. I can't believe she actually won the games once. Red comes over to sit and Ribbon badgers her about her perfect shade of red hair. Geez.
"We get it, you like hair." Cato threw a bread roll at Ribbon, smirking. I threw it back at him and heard several cries of 'Aww snap'.

Cato
Stitch. She will be dead. "Obviously you didn't get my message yesterday." I growled. Everyone stared at us, itching to understand. "You took me by surprise." Kylee said as she took the roll back and buttered it. "Yeah, in the arena I'm going to shout 'I'm about to attack you, ok?'." I had to try hard not to smirk, to stay stony and dark. "Bite me." Kylee took a rough bite of her roll and leaned closer. "What you said was so simple...there must of been another reason." everyone was staring at us now and I felt like she had slapped me, my face stinging and angry. Who does she think she is? That stitch is going around all superior, she'll be dead. "Step onto the balcony with me."
The staff were staring at us, not sure whether to intervene. Kylee looked at me with her with brown eyes, brimming with challenge.
I stood up and squeezed her shoulder until she got up and follower me out the door.
"Bigger?" Kylee asked, gesturing to her back. "You won't even see the cornucopia." I growled, meeting her eyes. This stitch will be dead as soon as the horn sounds, I'll kill her without even heading to the cornucopia, or maybe I'll have Tora toss me a weapon and I'll make her death slow and painful. Cut off her ears or eyes first? Nah, she'll need to hear her screams, see my smirk and her blood coming out in a stream. I must have been staring at her too long, calculating what would be most painful, because for once she started to back away, and get the wrong idea. "We'll see, sword boy...or is it spears you like? It won't matter because you won't kill me." Kylee took a step closer to me, whispering through her lips. "Would you? Could you? I don't know..." Oh darn...she's playing Glimmer with me. I am forever grateful I can't blush. "Cut it out or I'll snap your neck right here and now." She doesn't flinch. I make a move to head out the door but she blocks me, and I push her aside. "Couldn't wait to get your hands on me?" Is this how I was with her? Kylee lets me go and I quickly leave. How dare she use my angle!

"Cato why are you so mad? All she did was act arrogant and cocky." Tora looked up from her magazine as I smashed everything glass in my room. "You know, she was acting like you." ugh that bothers me too. Maybe she got in my head using my way. "She's dead." I said as I caught my breath and removed a piece of glass from my hand. "Glad you settled on that." and Tora went back to her magazine.
