Hi guys. I kind of lost my idea for this story for a little bit and I'm trying to pull it back together. I know exactly how I want the Games to go and how it's going to end, but I don't know how I want to get to the Games. So these next few chapters might be a little slow because I'm trying to pull together ideas for how this is going to work. Sigh. We'll let's get down to business, (to defeat the Huns….. heehee I had to!)

Disclaimer: I DO NOT Own ANY of the Characters, Blaine, Kurt, Rachel, Shelby, Sebastian, Jesse, Finn, etc.

The spear lunged forward and flew faster and faster and landed right into the dummy's heart. Rachel, Kurt, and Blaine all stood there with a look of shock and fear on their faces.

So, this is how it is. Kurt thought. I always wondered how the tributes were automatically so good at weapon throwing. He stared all around the room and saw people practicing with swords and knives.
Yup, I'm gonna die.

As if reading his mind, Blaine took Kurt's hand into his and gave it a squeeze. Kurt looked at Blaine once again and smiled. Ever since Blaine introduced himself to the duo, he's been spending more time with Kurt than his own district partner. Rachel gave up on the idea that Blaine could be a spy and accepted him into their group. The District Duo just became the Tribute Trio.

"Guys, I think we should split up." Rachel said sadly. "we'll cover more areas here and if we all find something different that we're good at, it'll give us an advantage."

They agreed to split up and Blaine agreed to go figure out some weapons while Kurt went to do some camouflage and fire building. Rachel had no idea where to go. She looked at the weapons once and they looked heavy so she finally decided that she should at least build up some strength if she should handle and axe or knife. She walked over to the weight lifting station where a small fourteen year old girl was doing chin-ups on a bar on the wall and the District 10 boy she saw on the stage yesterday was there too.

I can't remember this boy's name, Rachel pondered her mind for a bit to look for the right name. Flint…Flynn…Fla…..F… God what was it?

She inspected the boy a bit more as if trying to find his name in his physical features.

Hmm….. A little muscular….. but far from a six pack….dark hair….Flynn…..Flint…FINN! That's right! The answer hit her like a ton of bricks.

"Hi Finn!" She said excitedly, happy to know his name, she said it a little too excitedly because Finn dropped the weights in surprise and just missed crushing his toes.

"Oh..umm…..hi." Finn said sheepishly, blushing slightly for his mishap. "What are you doing here? Oh right….dumb question…. Training arena…we have to be here….umm…" Finn was stumbling his words still not forgetting that the beautiful girl he saw in the dress was actually standing here talking to him. Rachel laughed lightly at his word choice so that made him feel a bit better.

"I'm trying to build up some strength for the Games. Do you want to train with me?" She asked while her cheeks were blushing.

"I'd really love to….. I mean only if you want me…..I really want to….I mean….." Finn was dismayed at his inability to talk. He gave a sigh and said clearly, "Yes, I would love to train with you, Rachel Berry."

Meanwhile Blaine was learning to spar with a knife. He didn't like the idea of throwing with spears so he chose something smaller and a bit easier to handle. During the whole time while working with his trainer, he felt that someone was watching him, besides the Gamemakers and other tributes. No, this person was intently watching Blaine's every move.

Don't think like this Blaine. You'll only be even more paranoid in the arena. Blaine shook his head trying to get the silly idea out of his head.

But there was someone watching him. Sebastian stared at the short boy with admiration and lust. He watched Blaine's every move and grew angry when he saw Blaine walk toward Kurt with glee as they headed for lunch. He saw Blaine reach for Kurt's hand and lightly kiss his cheek. And Sebastian grew angry very angry.

If that's how you want to play this, Porcelain, let the games begin. And he walked behind the two lovers glaring at Kurt the whole time during lunch.

Kurt and Blaine met Rachel at lunch with the district 10 boy.

"You guys, this is Finn. He wants to know if he can ally with us." Rachel said happily. She looked at Finn with adoring eyes while he scarfed down some Capitol food. They sat down with their trays eating away. Finn took notice of Rachel's clam chowder.

"So you like the clam chowder Rachel?" Finn tried asking smoothly.

"Oh it's delicious! It's a District Four specialty, right Blaine?" She exclaimed. Finn and Blaine just nodded.

They were so engrossed in their food that they didn't even realize the other two figures plopping down besides them. Blaine looked up and scowled.

"What do you two want? I told you I'm not joining you and your friends." Blaine snapped at them.

"Well who said we were asking you, Frodo?" Jesse snapped back.

Sebastian cut in. "What he means to say is, we want to know if all of you want to join our little group. It'll give all of us a better chance of winning." He tried explaining to the others but they didn't believe it. Sebastian tried a different approach.

"What about you sexy? You probably just want to get back home where you can sing like a dream, and because I find you….fascinating, we're going to give you another chance. So join us and go home a happy little victor, or stay with the nerd herd. Your choice."

Blaine looked at him with disgust.

"Let's get out of here guys. Kurt, do you want me to throw your stuff away for you?" Blaine looked dreamily at Kurt. Kurt nodded and Blaine picked up the two trays and walked to the trash with Finn and Rachel. Jesse followed trying to explain that not only inviting Blaine but Rachel and Finn too, but they just looked at him with disgust. This left Kurt and Sebastian alone at the table. And Kurt was going to use this time to his advantage.

"I don't like you." Kurt said flat out to Sebastian.

"Fun... I don't like you either." Sebastian said right back.

"I don't like the way you talk to my boyfriend, I don't like your smirky little meerkat face, I don't like your obnoxious CW hair. I'm on to you." Now Sebastian was really getting annoyed with this guy. Who does he think he is? So, Sebastian snapped right back.

"Let's get a few things straight, Blaine's too good for you, your whole romance with him is a joke, and one of us has a hard luck case of the 'Gay Face' and it ain't me."

"You smell like Craigslist." And with that, Blaine saved Kurt from making any more mocking comments by taking his hand and walking him back to his District room.

That night, Kurt got a surprise awakening when Blaine knocked on his door and they snuck out to the roof of the building and they lay there looking at the stars and fell asleep in each other's arms.

Rachel also got a nice surprise when she opened her door and found and bowl of clam chowder sitting outside her door with a note that read,

I heard it was your favorite.

I knew I loved you when

I saw you and the sparkly black dress.

Enjoy the chowder,

XOXO 3

So what did you think? It's probably really bad, but now I have an idea of where to go from here :) The conversation between Seb and Kurt was from the episode "Hold Onto Sixteen", only slightly changed. I don't know when the next chapter will be up (hopefully Sunday, but I make no promises) so please keep Reviewing!

Give me and R-E-V-I-E-W! What does that spell? REVIEW!
