Training day 2
Akosua Haynes 16 District 5
Today we have had several new people join our alliance, I'm not really sure how it happened. The smart girl from 3, Cordelia her name is and the boy from 7 who is called Aaron.
Every time I look at Bastion he shakes his head almost like he's not approving, the more people we have the less likely we're going to get attacked by the careers but at the same time I don't want to ruin my relationship with Bastion! Suddenly a cunning plan pops up in my head which might help to solve the issue!
I approach Aaron who is training with an axe
"Hey Aaron we haven't really spoken that much yet but I have this idea"
He looks at me intrigued
"What's that?" he asks as he takes another swing
"Ok…this might sound crazy but I think you should join the careers" I reply
He is about to take another swing but stops in shock
"What?!"
"Hear me out…you join the careers but you're still with us…an inside man so to speak" I continue
"That way you can gain their trust and betray them when the time is right!"
"Sounds very risky…why me?" he questions
"You seem like the strongest out of any of us so I think you'll have the best chance"
He nods his head considering it
"Alright, I'll think about it" he replies
"Good! No pressure or anything…" I say
He leaves to move onto another station while Bastion joins me at my side
"What was that all about?" he question
"I just had this idea that Aaron should join the careers as an inside man for us" I reply
"Huh…you mean like a double agent?" he says
"Yeah…"
"Smart idea" he compliments
"Thanks!"
We smile at each other and stare into each other's eyes for long enough for it to become weird…but his eyes are so dreamy…
"Anyway, I'll be on the weights" he suddenly says
"Alright…"
Whisper Collins 16 District 10
I push two dumbbells up with all my strength but after about 5 tries my arms begin to shake and I give up. I'm so shit at this! I look over to the District 5 boy who is managing to lift the barbell like 15 times.
I'll just have to hope I can survive somehow in whatever arena it may be…whether it's a forest, dessert, snowy arena or jungle. I hope it is a forest or jungle. That must be such a musical experience and I wouldn't mind dying surrounded by nature, since it is likely that I'll die.
Casey Hermes 18 District 6
I keep imagining that Atlas is here, training together, lifting weights, fighting and sparring. I know he would protect me in the arena to his death, if it was possible that we were both reaped and he would defend me to the death. I know he would. Still, he's not here but I'm sure he will be watching eagerly from District 6 even though I don't want him to be.
I noticed recently an alliance has started to form between outer District's. I almost went and asked if I could join but for now I am too shy!
Normally due to what happened to me in the past I ty to ignore large groups but this group seem really nice. Oh well, all I can do at the moment is watch them. The District 7 boy is swinging an axe around wildly at one of the training dummies. I actually find him kind of cute…would Atlas be mad at me if he knew that I thought that? Is it wrong of me? I think he would understand given the circumstances…
Satin Tellresh 13 District 8
I tried using the survival section, some of the stuff I'm quite good at because I've had to do a lot for myself anyway with just my grandparents to look after me. I can light a fire, prepare and cook food.
Another young tribute is also on the survival section, he is a boy with dark skin and although he's really young he looks kind of muscly.
"What's your name?" he asks me
"S-Satin" I murmur
"I'm Marshall" he says
"Nice to meet you" I reply
"Whatever. Do you want to ally with me?" he interrupts
"Sure…" I murmur
"Good…just shut up and follow my commands that's all I ask" he blurts
I starting to regret allying with him now but it's not like I can back out…
Rye Kaiet 15 District 11
It's getting late back at our room but I can't stop thinking about how Zeryal has been looking at me since we met on the train…he's hiding something and I need to find out what it is!
I go towards his door and knock on it
"Zeryal, I need to talk to you" I announce
No one replies, he must be out. I creek the door open slowly and head into his room. Nobodies in.
I look around his room for clues of what he might not be telling me. Is it the games? Do they plan to kill me before or something?
Then I see a picture…its Zeryal with…my mum? What?
I pick up the picture to look at it closer, they have their arms around each other and are smiling.
"I wanted to break it to you slowly" I hear Zeryal's voice say
I turn around to find him standing in the door way
"Break what?" I question
"I think you know"
I look back at the picture
"You're my…dad"
"I…I had to leave…" he mumbles
Before he can say anything I just push past him and go to my room…
Little bit shorter than the first training day but we're almost at the games! I'm trying to give every character a pov before the games start but some are obviously shorter than other because that's all I can think to write at the time, hope you are enjoying!
