Training Day 3
Cordelia Wattson 15 District 3
I'm happy I was able to find an alliance, I feel like being a loner in this situation would be kind of a death sentence. Rye was the one who came and approached me about it, he's a really nice guy. I like him.
Bastion and Akosua are practicing on the pads again, I think they kind of have a thing for each other from what I can tell. Rye, Sadie and Aaron are practicing with weapons while I'm not very confident doing any of the physical or fighting stuff but hopefully I can show my worth when it comes to the survival stuff.
"Hey can I join your guy's alliance?"
I look up and see the guy from District 14. He's average height, with dark skin and dread locks.
"My District partner has joined the careers but I don't agree with it" he continues
"Our alliance is kind of full…what do you think you can bring to the table?" Akosua asks
"Hold one of the pads up" he replies
She slowly holds one of the pads up, he then proceeds to do a spinning kick on the pad
CLAP
Everyone stands in shock
"Ok I think we can find room for you" Akosua admits
"But no more after this"
"What's your name by the way?" she asks
"Prince" he states
After this we move onto the survival section. I pull Sadie aside.
"Hey…I know neither of us are good at this fighting stuff but I would like to show you something that might help with that"
She looks at me intrigued
"What's that!?"
I take a bottle and starts filling it up with oil and other chemicals from the survival section, she manages to pay attention to most of what I do somehow. I then take out a lighter.
"Light it up and it becomes a kind of…"
She starts pushing my hand towards the bottle but resist
"…bomb"
She lets go of my hand
"Oh…"
"Thanks for that tip Cordelia"
"Your welcome" I reply
Aaron Holloway 18 District 7
I take a deep breath as I prepare to approach the careers, they're sitting together chatting and training. The tall intimidating boy from District 2 stands up to talk to me.
"What do you want?" he questions
"I think I would be a good asset to your alliance" I reply
"Weren't you with that other alliance?" The District 1 girl asks
"Don't worry I ditched them…they were hopeless" I answer
She smirks
"Alright then what can you do?" The girl from 2 asks
I select an axe in the computer menu and grab it. I then raise it above my head and launch it into a nearby dummy, it embeds into the dummies head.
They all look at each other nodding in approval
"What's your name then?"
"Aaron" I reply
I look over to the girl from District 14 who has also joined the careers, she doesn't look so happy anymore. After the capitol removed the pink hair dye from her hair.
Adonis Quincy 18 District 2
I shake Aarons hand, welcoming him into the careers. He seems alright although I doubt he will last long.
I can't get too close to any of these people, I refuse to. I can never forget what happened to Knox. That's all I care about.
Marshall Dust 12 District 12
Another young tribute joined our alliance. The small District 6 girl. Demetria her name is. It doesn't matter anyway. As long as she keeps her mouth shut and doesn't annoy me, we should get along fine.
I notice Demetria and Satin starting to joke and giggle about something while on the survival section.
"Hey! Shut up!" I order
Demetria looks up seeming surprised
"What?" She replies
"You heard me. If you're joking around how do you expect us to get anywhere?"
Demetria turns to Satin
"Is he always like this?"
Satin nods her head sheepishly at the ground
I stand up in anger
"Don't test my patience" I growl
After asserting my dominance Demetria backs down.
"Good, now get back to what you were doing" I order
Bastion Oppenheim 16 District 5
The last day of training is over. The last chance to get ready. Now we just have to wait. Wait for the inevitable to begin!
Everyone gets in the elevator at the same time, I stand with Akosua. Strangely I notice the District 1 girl staring at me.
When we get to the corridor everyone is returning to their rooms however the District 1 girl is waiting outside hers. She gestures with her head for me to come talk to her.
"I'll be in in a second" I tell Akosua who is already inside
I walk towards her to see whatever it is that she wants…
I am writing one more chapter before the games begin. Hope you are all looking forward to the games and staying heathy!
