Ch.12 Ryan
Make a good impression, make a good impression, I think
To myself. Today is when we get a rating for the hunger games. We go into a room and they have us show off our skills then they rate us out of 12. First off today we have one more training session. I walk out of my room and Mary walks up from behind me and kisses me saying "Wake up sleepy head." she then runs away. I smile at her as she runs. I get to the kitchen and eat. Seth is there and tells us that we have to do well tonight. He says that If we want any sponsors we have to do great. Mary and I go back to our rooms and get our training cloths on. Seth had some very special ones made for us. Just for today so we look special. I think it's dumb, but whatever. I take out my special suit. It is a blue jumpsuit that sparkles. It fits me perfectly though. I come out and so does mary. Wow. Mary looks stunning. Her dress is a blazing red color and it also sparkles. She walks past me telling me to close my mouth. I laugh a little and follow her to the elevator. We get in and talk. She says that during her private session shes gonna show off her strength and bow skill. I tell her that I'm gonna show off my sword skill. We get down to the training area floor. We have one last day of training and then we go off and do our private training the next day. I go in and find Raynor. Mary looks for Audrie. Raynor and I talk up some strategies for the games and the. We have a small sword fight together. I guess that in one area the trainers give us fencing equipment and we can verse each other. I out on my mask up bring up my sword. Before the bell rings Mary and audrie come over to watch us. Raynor makes the first move, he slashes forward but I party it away. I run forward a try to thrust my sword into his armor. He spins away and swings at me. I duck just in time and then clip my sword across raynors leg. I stumbles for a second and then comes up slagging at me. I block the first one but the second gets me in the head and I fall to the ground. "HALT!" hollers the trainer. The first round goes to Raynor. The second round starts. This time I make the first move of coming up slashing to the right, which he blocks and tried to hit my legs. I jump up and then hit him in the head. He almost falls over. By the time he comes to i hit him again In the chest and then in the head again. He falls to the ground. Round 2 goes to Ryan. Round 3 starts. We run at each other at full speed. Our swords clash and are held together. I push harder, but Raynor overpowers me and hit me in the chest and arm. I swing again but he blocks it and hits my sword away. He then comes up to me with his sword to my neck. "HALT!" we have a winner, Raynor!" I take of my helmet and feel ashamed. Raynor then comes up to me and shakes my hand saying good game. Mary the. comes up and gives me a huge kiss on the lips. Audrie does the same to Raynor. The session ends and we go back in the elevator. Mary says that I did great and I that I could have almost won. She gives me a kiss in the cheek and I kiss her back saying thanks. We get into the room and go to he'd feeling exhausted. I wake up and have the feeling of nervousness in my body. Today is when we do our private session. I go and eat a big dinner. The room is silent for most of the time. Occasionally we talk about yesterday's fight. We finish eating and go to the elevator. We leave in silence. We get down to the waiting room and talk about what we are going to do. Eventually it is my turn and I get up. Mary gets up too and gives me one last kiss of good luck. I go in and I introduce myself. I show them how I can fight with a sword. I show them how long I can run too. At the end of the session I leave and Mary comes in. I go to my room waiting for Mary. She comes in and says that she messed up one time but she did great overall. We eat dinner and later that night we snuggle up and he couch and watch the TV. They announce the numbers. District 1: Raynor gets a 10 and Audrie a both cheer. Then district 2: Chris gets a 8 an Jolie gets 6. District 3: I get a 9 and Mary gets a 6. We both get up and cheer. We kiss again. We miss the girl tribute from 6 because of us kissing, but we heard that Shane got a 9 also. District 7 Brandon got a 11 and the girl tribute got 5. District 11: Jimmy got a 6 and Ella got 7. District 12: Philip got a 2 and the other girl got 12! Mary and I stand there in silence. The girl with the crutches got a 12. I mean she doesn't have crutches anymore, but she got a 12. That is rare. Mary and I push it aside and kiss some more. We go to our rooms to sleep. Tomorrow is interviews.
