Glimmer's Perspective
Marvel and I were about to go into the training centre, but I looked at the watch I was wearing and realized we have about an hour till training. I peeked in side and see nobody in there. I wonder what we can do before Training. I smile at Marvel and he smiles back; he must be thinking the same thing. We duck behind a corner and I smile.
Clove's Perspective
Me and Cato exit the elevator and walk to the training centre we are early in the corner of my eye I think I see glimmers blonde haired. What is she doing curiously I walk a little towards her and see what looks like Marvel's hair and stop and turn around. I have an idea of what they're doing and don't want to make sure, so I just walk back over to Cato.
We walk into the training area and see nobody here no instructors or other tributes. Aren't they afraid we might kill each other? Obviously not, so what to do, what to do. I look over at Cato and he has a smirk on his face. He must be thinking what I'm thinking.
1. We are in a room full of weapons
2. Alone with no instructor to stop us from doing anything
Since your not allowed to spar with another tribute during gaining only the weak capitol people. Only chance Cato and I have to spar with each other before the games.
We walk over to the sparring mat; we both grab a sword and get into position. Of course I lose, knives are my weapon of choice and Cato's are swords. We just happen to be using swords. In come Glimmer and Marvel as we are putting the swords away.
They look like they have been in a make out session. Hmmm probably have. I'll ask Glimmer about it later. Tributes are staring to file in districts 3, 4, 6, 8, 9 and 11 are here after 20 minutes. We were sparring for about 20 minutes so there is about 20 minutes till training starts in come district 10, 5 and the other district 1 and 2 tributes 10 minutes till training and in walks district 7 only 12 to go what's taking them so long I remember watching the recaps.
There's a 13 and 14 year old and a 17 and 19 year old, they all seem related. The 19 and 14 year old boys have the same last name. Hawthorne. And the girls, the 14 and 17 year old have the same last name: Everdeen. But they look so unlike each other one with gray eyes and brown hair, the other blue eyes and blond hair. The two oldest kids could be brother and sister, maybe there cousins. The older tributes look strong, which is weird for District 12. The little girl looked so fragile though.
This year the career tributes aren't all careers or have not had enough training to be a career, so this will range over a few districts. I remember the girl from last year who won. District 5, Looked like a fox. She didn't attack but hid and stole other people's food; sneaky. Nobody knew she was there in the arena. It was her and some district 1 career boy and the boy being stupid went and got some berries he though were edible after he killed a district 4 girl who was his last Ali. Not bothering to wait for the victory announcement he ate a berry and dropped to the ground, dead. I learnt never eat the berry unless you know it's safe and just because you think you won doesn't mean you have. I know not to eat that berry, and I learned to recognize it. It's called Nightlock, and one berry can kill you.
Katniss' Perspective
There is about 5 minutes till training starts. We are all in matching outfits. What's with that, maybe the whole family thing? When we walk in, everybody is staring at us. When the lady, Atala, is done explaining the stations, I head over to the archery
"Catnip what are you doing?" Gale asks me.
"Archery." I reply.
"but Haymitch said-"
"I know what Haymitch said, I just want to hold one"
Gale sighs, "ok." He replies.
So we head over too the archery and shoot a few arrows. Let's just say Prim needs to stay away from them; they didn't even hit the targets, more like the roof. One went flying across to a metal part of the wall, reflected and went on to the roof. Rory was ok, one hit the target twice and the others landed near me. Gale got them all on the target. That's when the careers came over, well not all of them just the 17 year old district 1, 16 and 14 district 4 and all of district 2.
"hi, I'm Glimmer" the district one girls says with a smile.
" I'm Katniss." I reply. What are careers doing here? I wonder.
"You're really good." Glimmer complements me.
"Thanks, I guess." I say, I'm not sure where this is going.
"I'm Clove and even the little girl is good for district 12…" the district two girl says.
What's going on?
"okaaaay…" I say.
That's when clove grabs me by the wrist and pulls me away with Glimmer following
"We want you all to join the careers. You will never join without everybody, I can tell, and strong competitors need to win. I never thought I'd be saying this to district 12…" Clove says, trailing off at the end.
"why? You have other careers to win with." I say
"the twins are annoying and district 4 is weak. I'm 'accidentally' killing the twins in the bloodbath" Clove says with a cruel smile.
"So why have them in the alliance?" I ask.
"If we leave to many out they will make there own alliance" says Glimmer
"ok, but gale may need more persuasion." I warn them.
We walk back over to the others
Clove's Perspective
District 12 I never thought I'd see the day district 12 actually has competitors. Now the question is do we actually let them win.
