Kaleb waited impatiently as District 1 preformed for the game makers. When his name was called he sprung up and walked towards the doors. Sia wished him good luck and he did the same back. When he stepped through the doors we walked towards the middle of the room. After being signaled by the game makers he rushed over to the sword station. He picked up one that felt well balanced in his hand and went on with maiming the dummies. After a while he stopped and went over to the knife throwing station. He threw a few. He was only doing this to really show how much better Sia was at throwing them. He honestly hoped it worked. After he was done there, he went back to the sword station and stayed there until they dismissed him. He smirked slightly and exited the room.
Sawyer waited for that knife thrower from 2 to be done. Just as he had waited for district 1 and the knife thrower's district partner. Finally it was his turn. He passed knife thrower on the way in. She was smirking as if she had won these things already. Then he noticed her nails. They had different powders and liquids trapped underneath them. What had she done in there? Then he knew. Poison. She probably dipped her knives in it. His thoughts are confirmed when he see's the discarded and melted target in the corner. There are also some melted knives there too. Smooth move 2. Smooth move. He walks over to the sword station. He kisses his dad's dog tags for good luck. He picks up a fairly large one and turned to face the dummies. He took off a few dummies heads, others their arm, and some he just stabbed through the stomach. He didn't really have anything else to do so he stuck with the swords the entire time. When his time was out, he bowed respectively to the game makers and exited the room.
Kai waited with Towner while districts 1-3 preformed. When his named was called he walked evenly into the room. When he did he caught the faint smell of smoke. What had that 3 girl done? Whatever. He walks over to the spear station. He knows Towner will do the same and she's better at it, but that's only because she does it for a living. Either way he is still amazing with a spear. So he grabs 5, walks backwards, takes aim, and throws the first spear at one of the dummies. He smirks as it hits a fatal spot. He does the same routine with the other 4, then goes over to the knot station and ties some very complicated ones. Guess who else makes some nets Towner? That's right this guy. Kai knows for a fact her family owns a shellfish stand. Meaning, she spear fishes and probably makes nets for extra money. So, I guess it was pretty stupid of him to do the same things she was going to do but hey. Whatever.
There are some perks to having an uncle who is a victor. You get trained. So when Ariana was called she was completely ready. She silently curses when she sees the melted targets in the corner. Stupid 2 girl that was my idea. Great. Sighing she walks over to the knives&daggers station. She picks up some knives and stuffs them in her belt. She walks over to the gauntlet and positions herself to run. The trainers get ready with the clubs and she takes off. She easily dodges every club and manages to hit all the targets with her knives. She takes the leap of faith and lands soundly on her feet. She turns back. All her knives hit the middle of the target and she didn't mess up and kept her footing. Pretty good. She goes to the hand-to-hand combat station and grabs a couple daggers. She precedes to slice open every dummy she encounters. She admires her handy work stepping away. She is dismissed and she can't seem to wipe away the smirk that creeps up on her face.
Sebastian has fingers in his face snapping. He snaps out of his daze and sees Libra is trying to get his attention. "You were just called" she says motioning towards the door. He nods his head slowly standing up and walking towards the doors. As he enters he stops. What is he going to do? He settles on some traps. He's pretty good at those. So he makes traps ranging from average to pretty impressive. He messes up on one and swears very loudly. He flushes pink with embarrassment. The game makers are feasting on some pig and other Capitol food. They catch him looking at them and dismiss him. "Well," he thinks. "That was awkward"
Drake feels bad. He sits an awkward silence with Lily. He was a complete jerk to her. Nice going Drake you just lost a possible friend/ally. Though he doesn't think she would want him as an ally anyway. She seems to want to work alone. Drake is called and he lets out a breathe and walks through the doors. He immediately runs to the axes. Ok here goes nothing. He picks up a throwing axe and chucks it at the target. It hits the center. Excellent. He continues throwing them until his arms grow tired. So he goes to the climbing ropes. He climbs to the ceiling with ease. Its like second nature to him. A wave of home sickness hits him. Climbing up those trees in the forest, collecting the edible plants, and learning about axes with his father. Then he thinks about here. Has he even made any friends? Yes there's Cecily. Then talked a little more through the rest of training. She showed him some knife skills while he showed her how to handle an axe. Though she had told him she wasn't interested in having an ally's. he had nodded his head getting it. It was a shame though. She would have been an excellent one to have. Pushing the thoughts from his head he finishes the climbing and looks to the game makers. They nod their heads in dismissal. He leaves. He briefly passes Lily and she gives him a small smile and for the first time, he returns it.
Lily was a little shocked. Drake wasn't such a jerk after all. She walks into the room and it feels a little creepy. It isn't full of all the trainers and tributes so it feels pretty much empty. She shrugs walking to her weapon of choice. Axes of course. She picks up her favorite and hacks away at the dummies. She might have evilly laughed too she wasn't sure. She continued hacking until she had no more dummies to dismember. Then she turned to the throwing axes. She hits the middle each time. Smirking she picks up the last axe and throws. It's a perfect hit. Lily takes a breathe. Did that just happen? Omigod it did. Yes! A minor victory for Lily. The game makers look pleased. She really doesn't know what to do know. So she settles on building a fire. She walks over there and immediately creates a spark. She gathers the tinder and lights a fire adding dry twigs and leaves occasionally. All said and done the fire is huge. She grabs some water and douses it. The game makers nod their heads and she's dismissed.
Maria has a plan. She doesn't know if its good or bad she just needs to do it. It may make or break her. So when her name is called she jumps up and rushes into the room. She runs to the knife station and picks out a dagger. She positions a dummy the way she wants along with the dagger. She backs up and prepares. She takes a starting run, preps, then does a triple back handspring, picking up the dagger in the middle, then preforms a back tuck landing and slashing open the dummy's neck. Maria praises herself for not falling on her butt. She usually would. She just has pure adrenaline coursing through her veins. She smiles up at the game makers. She has done a great job. Let's hope it pays off. She slices up a few more dummies before she is let go. Did she do enough?
Kole tapped his fingers on the table absently. He was nervous. What if he messed up? Would they laugh at him? Probably not but he was still shaking. At last his name was called. He stood up and walked nervously into the room. He eyed the game makers and they told him to begin. He nods and heads over to the javelins. He picks up a few and positions himself in front of a dummy. He throws his first one. It clatters uselessly to the ground past the dummy. His face goes red with embarrassment. He tries again. This time it catches the dummy's shoulder. Better but not so good. As he throws one after another he gets better. Ending with always hitting center. He feels a strange sense of pride. Maybe he does have a chance in these games after all. He keeps on throwing them. He doesn't have much else he's good at so this is the best he can do. Though it seems like its enough.
George watched as Scarlet disappeared into the room. He still had no idea what he was going to do. Run? That's all he's good at. So running it is. 14 short minutes later his name is called. He nods his head at Cecily and walks nervously into the room. The game makers motion for him to start. One guy falls over. Drunk. Great. He gets in his starting position and takes off running. The game makers pause for a minute then burst out laughing. George is pretty sure his face is beat red. He shakes his head and runs faster. The game makers stop laughing and study him. He is going pretty fast. His feet are killing him. But hey, they are starting to look impressed. So George takes that as a good sign. He stops running and looks for the cue to leave. He gets it and gets out of there.
Thomas is literally biting his nails. Chesh is looking at him like he's insane but whatever. Just anxious that's all. His name is finally called. What is he good at? Plants and crap. Awesome. Just awesome. He awkwardly walks to the edible plants station. He quietly takes the plant test. He passes it with flying colors. So he decides to make a fake meal for them. More like one of their healthy dishes. What was it called? A salad? Yes, he'll make a salad. He puts some of the green leafs at the bottom then put some roots on top. He yells "Cook first!" to the game makers pointing at the roots he chose. He adds some berries and assorted leaves. Like mint. By the time he's done he has pretty good looking salad in front of him. He looks to the game makers. They drunkly excuse him. He gratefully goes.
Fredrick hates waiting. Almost as much as he hates the Capitol. His name is called he stands up and walks in. What to do what to do. Then he knows. He sits straight down in the middle of the room. He gives the game makers an evil eye. They stare at him like he's the dumbest person in the world. Their staggering around drunk and I'm the stupid one? Yea no. So he sits there now smirking at them. He doesn't have to play their games. Fredrick has a surprise for them though. He waits for the last 30 seconds then acts. They look at him in surprise. She sprints over to the knife station, scoops up one knife, and waits. He walks up to a dummy very slowly and stabs its arm. All the game makers face palm. Haha! False hope for you losers! They excuse him and he practically skips out of the room.
Natalya is waiting patiently while her moron of a district partner finishes his session. What is he doing? Sitting in the middle of the room again? Probably. What an idiot. He's so getting a 0. A 1 if he's lucky. No wonder 12 is the laughing stock of Panem. Idiots like him always get reaped. God he is ruining her chances of even being sponsors. She half wonders if when the gong sounds if he's going to take one step and sit down on the ground. Yep, that's probably his plan. Finally her name is called. She has absolutely no idea what to do. She is just going to do survival skills. She starts at the snare station and makes a few of those. Then she camoflauges her arm into blending in with the tree bark. Then she builds a small fire. The bugs. After that plants. Finally she makes a hammock. She decides to leave it at that. So being the last tribute Natalya walks out with an okay attitude.
