A/N Hey guys :) So I wanted to do a story for Glimmer, because she's my fav HG character, as you see on my profile. So this story reflects on her life before, and during the Hunger Games. I'm going to stop babbling nd start writting. So enjoy chapter 1.
Glimmer's POV
"Come on, that is the easiest shot in the world." A voice booms throughout the room. I flinch, but don't say anything, I have enough bruises to know that you don't talk back. Why did my mother have to send me here of all places, the strictest, cruelest career boarding school in all of Panem, and to top it all off, it's an all girl school. Well there is a boy equivalent on the other side of the brilliant blue lake, but we've never meet any of them. I could put up with these things if I was any good. My mother was skilled in archery, so she expects me to be as exellent as her with a bow, but I'm not. She told my trainer, that I can't even pick up a different weapon, until I master archery. I long to be able to touch another weapon, but Carly (my trainer) won't let me. She just yells at me, and expects me to be amazingdeep take a deep breath before loading another arrow, and aiming at the target in front of me. I close my eyes and release the string, sending the arrow flying across the room. I don't open my eye, because I don't feel like getting yelled at, but instead I hear clapping. I peek one eye open I tiny bit, and see that I hit the bullseye. I smile, now feeling ecstatic, when Carly points toward my sheath of arrows and tells me to do it again.
Time skip
After about an hour, I somehow manage to hit 20 more bullseyes, so Carly calls my mother, who finally says that I can move ahead with my weapon training. I'm directed to a plethora of knifes, and life size human models, with targets on their hearts. Carly teaches me how to throw a knife properly, and after a few times, I start to get the hang of it. Knives, in my opinion are easier than a bow an arrow. I pierce the dummies heart, multiple times before my three hour session is over, and I am told to return to my room. I run back eager to tell my best friend Ashley, about my progress, but I end up colliding into a tall boy in the middle of the hall.
"Hey watch were your going," I say, at first I try to look intimidating, but as I look up at his dity blonde hair, and his chocolate brown eyes, my rock hard expression starts to fade. He smiles, and I start to blush. "Sorry about that, I thought you were somebody else," I lie quickly, attempting to regain my confindance. Nobody has ever made me feel this way before, I love taunting guys, and making them get weak, but they don't make me weak, at least there not supposed to. It doesn't work like that in my world, but thankfully his voice breaks my spiraling train of thought,
"Yeah because there are so many boys at an all girl school," he says while rolling his eyes. I laugh,
"So what are you doing here?"
"My mom works here, I came to visit her from district 2, before the reaping, you know just in case," he winks at me.
"Well do you know where your going." I ask, thinking that hopefully he doesn't.
"My mom has worked here for years, I think I know where I'm going." I nod,
"Well maybe I'll see you around sometime."
"Yeah, maybe," He says before he starts walking away.
"Wait," I scream, he turns around, adn raises his eyebrow. "I never got your name, I'm Glimmer." He smiles,
"Cato," he says and walks down the hall leaving me excited and overjoyed.
A/N Soo I know it's short, but it's my mini cliffhanger :) This story will in fact have some Glato, it will follow the movies path, instead of the book's. Well today marks the begining of a four day write-a-thonish thing for me. FOr the next four days, I will be updating as much as I can, and adding new stories. Please, please review, and check out my stories, and check back for new ones :) Thanks!
