The 71st Annual Hunger Games
Chapter 2: The Assessment
The loud speaker called:
"Johanna Mason, please report for your individual assessment."
Johanna got up and entered the room, which was filled with tools and weapons. She couldn't show off her real skills, so she picked up a throwing knife and threw it at a dummy. It landed yards away from the dummy. She then started to tie a few knots, and the Gamemakers were chatting amongst themselves. The Head Gamemaker, Julius Piggsmith, was talking to a minor Gamemaker, Seneca Crane.
"You know Seneca," he said "I want that redheaded Career, Cora, to win. She seems skilled and I really think she is the right person to win. I want you to help me make her win." he said.
This made Johanna mad. She wanted so bad to pick up an axe and throw it at those dummies, but she couldn't. She was dismissed in the middle of one of her knots. That night, Caesar Flickerman announced the scores and betting odds of all of the tributes. These were their scores and betting odds:
Bronzer- 9, 4-1
Leatherette- 10, 4-1
Griffith- 10, 3-1
Dianthus- 10, 4-1
District 3 Male- 5, 10-1
District 3 Female- 5, 10-1
Jonathan- 10, 4-1
Cora- 10, 3-1
District 5 Male- 7, 8-1
District 5 Female- 6, 13-1
Titus- 10, 4-1
District 6 Female- 7, 11-1
Carver- 8, 9-1
Johanna- 3, 22-1
District 8 Male- 4, 19-1
District 8 Female- 9, 6-1
Travis- 6, 14-1
Roxanne- 7, 9-1
District 10 Male- 6, 16-1
Paxton- 5, 25-1
District 11 Male- 7, 12-1
District 11 Female- 7, 15-1
Randolph- 5, 14-1
District 12 Female- 4, 20-1
Johanna then assessed the scores. She was happy with her score, because everybody probably saw her as extremely weak now. The District 8 Female was extremely good with a bow, and her district partner was bad at everything. She was probably going to protect him in the games. Paxton probably showed off her blowgun skills and Roxanne probably showed off her knowledge of edible grasses and cereals, like wild rye and wheats. Now Johanna was set. She was ready to win.
