I sit down at the table in our room at the Training Center. Tyler is talking to Haymitch. Katniss sits across from me.

"Ready for some mentor advice?" Katniss asks with a smile.

"Yes." I nod.

"Well, what are we waiting for?" Katniss glances at Haymitch. "All he says is stay alive."

I giggle.

"My advice is know who to trust and stay away from the Cornucopia."

"Stay away from the Cornucopia?" I ask, surprised.

Katniss nods. "The careers will kill you if you go in too far. And I hear there are six careers this year." she shudders.

"How wi I get anything if J don't go to the Cornucopia?" I ask.

"Oh, don't worry. Not everything is right in the Cornucopia. There will be things outside it. Just grab a few things and run." she pauses. "Besides, I think I heard there's something different about the Cornucopia this year. All the more reason to stay away from it."

"Katniss, you're not allowed to do that!" Haymitch calls.

"Do what? Stay away from the Cornucopia?"

"No! Tell the tributes what's in the arena."

"Oops," Katniss says, not sorry at all.

"Tributes, report to training." A voice calls over the loudspeaker.

"A good time to find your strength," Katniss tells me.

I get up and follow Tyler to the elevator.

The boy and girl from 7 are already in the elevator. The girl is a lot taller than me. We stay silent, knowing that they are our potential killers.

And we are theirs.

We go to the training room, where we find dummies and weapons and a caged-in room.

I shrug and go to the first vacant station.

To my left is the boy from 4. He is eighteen. A career. I should avoid him.

Turning my back on him, I find that to my right is the girl from 5. Three years older than me.

The girl turns to me and I shrink back.

Instead of taunting me, she introduces herself.

"Hi. I'm Abby from District 5."

She looks so much like Amber. Maybe I can trust her.

"Nice to meet you . I'm Kailey from District 12."

"You shouldn't be so friendly with each other. You're just going to have to kill each other." The career next to me growls.

Abby sticks her tongue out at him. "Pete. District 4. I met him in not the most presentable way."

I laugh. "Allies?"

Abby nods.

I really hope she's trustworthy. Otherwise, I've made a terrible mistake.

...

What do you think? Is Abby trustworthy?
