1 year before the reaping...
I curl up as he gives another punch and he smirks because he knows I am scared.
"You carry on like this and you will never be a career or even be in the Games." He whispers in my ear, sending shivers down my spine. I push him off me and run out the front door as fast as I can.
I suddenly bang into someone. As I look up I see her and immediately blush.
"Oh, Dylan. I meant to talk to you actually." She says as I offer to help her up. She pushes my hand away and jumps to her feet.
"Hey Brooke." I mutter bashfully - trying to play the cute act.
"Well, you haven't really asked me out on any dates and you never talk to me. So, I am breaking up with you." She says bluntly and turns away like it was nothing. I guess it was nothing. Just puppy love.
I walk through the academy doors still wrapping my head around why she broke up with me. I am nice, handsome, cute and fun! Maybe it's because I am not good enough at training! Am I not strong enough? I stop questioning myself when someone shouts in my face, "Hello? Are you there?"
"Um. Oh, hey Hudson." I answer.
"What's up man?" He asks clearly seeing something is up.
"Brooke. She broke up with me. No biggie though." I reply but it is a biggie. Things were really going well between us and I really thought I had fallen in love. We walk off and find some trainers.

Another one crashes on me.
"Ohhh! Not your day today, huh?" The girl on the surfboard next to me shouts over the waves.
"Shut up, Aqua! I am just so nervous for the volunteer results." I answer back. I have to do my lucky surf every morning though.
After another hour of waves crashing over me I decide to head over to the training centre and get some more practice in. I dry myself up on the hot, golden sand as Aqua talks to me. "No need to be worried! You are totally going to be chosen and maybe even with Dylan if you're lucky." She mumbles the last part smugly but I hear her. I give her a quick slap, that felt good, and tell her. "I broke up with him which means I don't like him so just shut up!" After that I storm off, heading to the training centre.
Aqua catches up to me as I reach the training centre - apologising but still laughing. We walk in and I get some extra training in.
I take my cutlass out the case and slash at 2 trainers that I am working with. A quick dodge from the lady and the man is hit hard in the stomach falling to the ground. I smirk and she thinks I am distracted so she plunges at me and I twirl around, knocking her down.
As I do a trainer catches my eye. He is by the bulletin board and hammering on a notice. I run over and the notice says:
Volunteers-
Female: Brooke Reefside, 17
Male: Dylan Angel, 18
I made it. I am going into the games.
