~ Ice Hero-Gamemaker~
"Ice?" I hear a man say as I take a few notes on my clipboard. I look up to see Robbie LeBlanc, our new head gamemaker. I get out of my chair and stand up straight.
"Hello Boss, do you need anything?" I ask him. He smirks and brushes his hand through his short brown hair.
"I'm assigning everyone to look after a District and you get District Eleven, I know they aren't the most interesting and I would rather have you with District One or Two since you are one of my best workers but I drew names, so it was just the luck of the draw" He tells me, and I'm slightly disappointed. I never get good things around here, but Robbie has taken a bit of a liking to me so I'll see how far it gets me.
"I completely understand sir, I'll get right to work on it." I beam. He smiles and walks toward another gamemaker.
I look at my clip board and tap the slide that says District Eleven. I then hit the girl's profile first. I see there is nothing there besides her name and age. I sigh and begin to fill in her profile.
Name: Briona Newleaf
Age: 13
Actions so far: Briona has been working endlessly on her throwing knife skills. Most times she hits the target but sometimes she seems to be a little off. Since Briona doesn't come from a wealthy District, she seems very underfed.
I stop writing and look down at Briona. Her skinniness makes her look so young. She reminds me of a certain kid from the games a long time ago, although I can't recall her name.
"Ice!" I hear Robbie call again. I look up and see him beckoning me over to him. "District Eleven doesn't seem to be doing much right now, do you want to come to my office for a bit?" He asks me. I glance at District Eleven then back to Robbie.
"I guess I can spare a few minutes." I answer. Robbie smiles and leads me to his office. He sits down behind his desk as I take my seat in front of him. I see him reach under his desk and pull out a bottle of whiskey, he smiles as he pours me and himself a glass.
"Do you like whiskey?" He asks me. I smile and nod. I down about half my glass before Robbie starts to go move and sit on the couch in the corner of his office. I go and sit next to him. He moves closer to me and puts his mouth to my ear. "I feel as if we've grown closer over the past year." I back off a little and giggle, the alcohol slowly starting to work through my system. Robbie leans into me and I feel his lips brush the corner of my mouth.
"Robbie, no. You have a girlfriend." I mutter as I back away a little.
"Screw Blossom, I don't need her, I have you." He groans. I drink the rest of my whiskey and set my glass on the table beside me. I feel his hand grip my shoulder as he turns me and presses his lips against mine. I feel a surge of energy rush through me as I start to kiss him back.
Knock Knock Knock
I pull away from Robbie as the door swings open, revealing another gamemaker who stops dead in his tracks.
"Yes?" Robbie asks.
"Sir, one of the trainers has lost his wallet sometime over the past two days, he believes a tribute took it." The man tells us.
"Okay, tell the man to get a line up of the tributes that were there already, I'll be down there in a minute." Robbie replies. The man hurries away as Robbie gets up and walks out the door without looking at me.
~Briona Newleaf~
I'm thrown against the wall by a big peacekeeper. Beside me the pair from Eight, my District partner Jayden and the girl from Zero are also thrown at the wall. I see the head gamemaker walk down the stairs towards us shaking his head.
"One of you five stole this man's wallet." He says as he points at the man from the obstacle course. He looks at us like we are all guilty. A peacekeeper comes up to me and starts to pat me down. He looks to be about twenty something years in age but I could be mistaken. He could be way older, since the capitol can do all this funky surgery stuff to make them look young.
"She's clean!" The peacekeeper who was searching me yells. The head gamemaker nods and looks to the others. I walk away slowly as the rest of the peacekeepers start to finish their search. The girl from Zero and the girl from Eight are the next done. That leaves Jayden or the boy from Eight.
"Bring them here!" Head Gamemaker Robbie yells. I see him screw his eyes up in frustration. He bunches up his fists and nails Jayden in the stomach and lays his other fist into the jaw of the boy from Eight. I gasp, he hit two of the tributes, will he get in trouble for this? I hear the man scream. "One of you two took that wallet! If both of you survive the bloodbath your life will be hell in the arena!" The man stomps away, leaving Jayden and the boy from Eight clutching the spots where they were hit.
"That was a sight to see." I hear a female say. I turn to see the girl from District Zero standing a few feet to my left.
"Yeah, I never thought a gamemaker would injure a tribute." I say. The girl looks at me and sighs.
"Aww your cute." She whispers. I'm taken aback a little.
"Umm thanks." I say. She walks over to me and stands a couple inches from me and purrs.
"To bad I'm going to have to kill you in the games."
