Chapter 15: Telling them
I step out of the elevator and get flooded with questions from Earney like: What did you do? How do you think you went? How bad was it? How did you do one-on-one combat? Did you hurt any of the gamemakers? By this time I was already at dining table eating some sweet plum stew. "OK, Earney overall I asked for a volunteer made a joke, one of the game makes smiled, I did some one-on-one the volunteer and no he wasn't a game maker, I then dismissed him, got a dummy, chopped its head off then threw the knife at a bullseye and got it?" Earney was silent.
"How did they react?" I give him a roll of eyes.
"Astounded ok?"
Earney then made a noise of relief. He then sits down at his normal place and started eating. Joe had overhead the whole conversation then said "Don't worry Earney did that to me too" I give a smile and say "So what did you do?"
"I threw a couple of knives –bullseye of course- then but that's about it"
"Cool."
After we are sufficiently full we go down to the television and watch our other "friends" –not- get there scores while we wait patiently for ours. The careers naturally get 9's and 10's the others not so much but Danton and Maddey surprisingly get an 8. Joe's score goes over the speakers "Nine" and I smile and give him a quick kiss on the cheek. His face paused in an astonished look. It then goes on to me. Oh please oh please. "Ten" A ten? What? "I-I-I-I g-g-g-got" Earney then chimes in "A ten" I then suddenly make a whole heap of really weird half snorts and half attempts at trying to talk. Darkness takes me, oh god I FAINTED WITH JOY! Oh I'm not going to last in the arena.
