Hey guys I know this has been a while, I'm so sorry. Please read and review. I will have Chapter 5 up later today. I promise.

Chapter 4: Training and Agreeing

Katniss steps through the steel double doors into the training room. She looks around and spots a bow with arrows lined under it. A tribute from 1 named Glimmer is shooting, and failing. She looks as if she knows what she is doing, but she misses her target by inches.

"Glimmer, try and actually hit the target this time." Cato laughs with the rest of the Careers.

"Shutup, Cato!" she hisses.

She lifts the bow to her cheek, breaths slowly, and lets the arrow soar through the air. It hits the target dead on. Katniss gasps fearing that she isn't one who is handy with the bow.

"Nice!" Clove says.

Cato looks over and catches Katniss's eye. His eyes burn through hers. She looks away and walks over to the spears, at the same time the Careers decide to move there too. Katniss, trying her best to avoid them, goes to the bow and arrow. She lifts the bow in her hands. It is deep silver, rather light, and beautiful. She picks up an arrow and places it in the bow. She lifts the bow to her cheek and lines it up the target on the head of a cut-out of a person's body. She breathes in and releases the bow string sending the bow speeding through the air. It plunges into the center of the target. She picks up another arrow, does her line-up and this time sends straight through the torso. Again, she picks up an arrow and sends it into the "heart" of the cut-out. The Careers actually clap. She looks over to see if she is imaging. They are looking straight at her, clapping. Katniss turns away wanting to avoid the Careers the best she can, but they walk over to her.

Crap. Katniss thinks, this is exactly what I wanted, for the Careers to…

"We want you." Katniss turns on her heel, coming face-to-face with Cato.

"Excuse me?" she raises her brow.

"We. Want. You." Clove repeats, "I didn't stutter."

"Um, no thanks." Katniss says turning back to what she was doing.

"Then consider yourself our first target." Glimmer says.

"Considered. Thanks." Katniss rolls her eyes.

"Katniss Everdeen. We are basically saving your life, so if you refuse us now, you are giving it up." Cato says.

"I have a reason to come out of that arena, other than for the fame. I'd like to, if I can, leave it with dignity. That won't happen with the Careers." Katniss says. She walks away.

"What was that?" Titus walks next to Katniss.

"An invitation I proudly refused."

"Why would you refuse the Careers, it's not like you have anything to lose." Titus shrugs.

"That's where you're wrong, Titus. I have everything to lose. I actually have something to live for. The thing is, what I have to live for, is also what I would die for. I only have one life, Titus, and I know what is worth dying for."

"Katniss your best, chances of living are joining the Careers. If you want to see whatever it is worth dying for again, then you need to join them." Titus says.

"Why do you care?"

"District 12 needs a Victor. We are the only district without one."

"You want me to be that Victor?" Katniss asks.

"Do it for the little girl, Katniss, the one who didn't want you to go."

Katniss thinks of Prim. A tear rolls down her cheek. She wipes it away quickly.

"Katniss, do it for 12."

That is what hits Katniss. She thinks of how much it would mean to 12 if she came back a Victor.

"Alright, I will." Katniss chokes on the words knowing that she will regret it later.

She walks back to the Careers who are enjoying themselves as they train.

"Okay." She says.

They all turn around.

"What was that?" Cato asks.

"Okay, I'll join the Careers."

"I told you I could change your mind."

The next few days they train together. Throwing spears, knives, weights, and shooting arrows. Katniss and Cato actually begin to get along, and they train together. She doesn't know what it is, but Katniss feels something when she is around Cato. Cato too. They both know however, it is something that they shouldn't feel.
