Leah Oakley
After breakfast, Frodo and I make our way down to the training center with the other tributes. When we enter the lift that will take us down to the training center, there are already two pairs of tributes waiting for us; the District four tributes, and the District three tributes; Elanor, the slightly crazy girl named Kayly, and the two boys.
"Hi!" The crazy girl exclaims as Elanor and I share a glance. "I'm Kayly!" Elanor rolls her eyes and I nod. "And we're all going to die!"
"And you're actually happy about that?!" I snap at her.
"Yeah!" I can't stand this girl.
"Right..." I turn to Frodo, hoping she will leave me alone.

Elanor Rouke
When the lift doors open for a third time, I see my new ally and the boy from her District, standing in front of me. My, my, my. What a coincidence. They enter the lift and the doors close. The annoying girl from District three begins squealing again. "Hi! I'm Kayly! And we're all going to die!" She said exactly the same thing to me when I first entered the lift, but I half threatened her and she shut up. Now, however, Leah Oakley won't shut her up.
"And you're actually happy about that?!"
"Yeah!"
"Right..." Even after they've stopped talking to each-other, little miss District three continues mumbling, partially to herself and partially to her district partner. I can't stand her.

Abie Karimloo
I find Pippin in the dining room. "Hey, Pip." When he doesn't respond, I sit opposite him, crossing my arms on the table and resting my chin on them. "Pip? You okay?"
"Hmm." Is his only response.
"You can talk to me. You know that, right?"
"It's just..." He begins, as I see a tear drop splash onto the table, and I know.
"No one came to see you, did they?" Pippin shakes his head. But the he lifts his head to me.
"Someone did."
"Who?"
"Your dad." Wait, did he say my dad?
"Pip..."
"He told me to look after you and no matter what, to get you out of there alive. He doesn't care how. He just wants you to survive it." My dad went to see Pippin, and not me? Then again, Merry came to see me instead of going to see Pippin, but this is different. "He told me not to tell you." Should I tell him about Merry? I contemplate. He told me about my dad when he told him not to, what should I do?!
"Shh, it's okay, Pip. We're gonna be okay."
"No it's not. The last thing that happened at home was that I hated Merry and my dad, and now twenty three of us have to die. I don't want to die, Abie. But I don't want you to die, either."
"We'll both get out. I don't know how, but we will. I promise."

Soon, it's time for us to go to training, so we walk out together and wait for the lift.

Kayly Scribbles
The lift opens and no-one's there. Shouldn't there be people in there? I think to myself, before Erestor walks up behind me.
"Come on, Kayly. They're not going to wait for us all day, you know."
"Oh, OK!" And I hop onto the lift, followed by Erestor. The doors to the lift close and then I feel it begin to move. "This is going to be REALLY exciting!" I squeal, before Erestor snaps at me.
"Kayly! You can't be like that! No-one will like you if you be like that! If you keep going the way you are, you'll be the first one who is killed in the arena! Do you know nothing of these games?!"
"Um..." I half whimper.
"I'm sorry." His voice softens. "I just don't want to see you killed, especially not in the bloodbath. That's the worst bit of the Hunger Games. The idea of training is to learn how to keep yourself safe and survive and..."
"Erestor?"
"And kill."

After a long pause, the door opens again and there is a blond girl and a blond boy standing there. "Hey! I saw you on the train!" I say as she steps carefully into the lift. "Hi! I'm Kayly! And we're all going to die!"
"You wanna shut up?!" she yells at me.
"Huh?"
"If you don't shut up, you'll be the first person to die. I'll make sure of that!" Gulp.
"Sorry..." I murmur.
"You will be."
"Well that wasn't very nice." I whisper to Erestor, and she hears me and glares at me.
"I would listen to her, you know." He whispers back, and I nod.

A few minutes later, the door opens and there's a girl with dark blond-ish hair and a boy with frizzy-afro-ish-black hair standing there. "Hi! I'm Kayly! And we're all going to die!"
"And you're actually happy about that?!" she snaps at me.
"Yeah!"
"Right..." Why did she extend the 'i' as if I'm crazy? Maybe because you are crazy... Says a voice in my head. NO I'M NOT! I yell back to it in my head. Sometimes I hate my brain...

A/N: Now switching to third person, because all four tributes are in the same place. Thanks for reading! Harriett & Victorie

When Abie and Pippin arrived at the training centre, District 6, District 12 and District 10 were the last three districts to arrive. When they were there, all 24 tributes were allowed to begin training. The training centre was made up of stations; Edible Plants, Sword Fighting, Knife Throwing, Bow and Arrow Practice, Agility Practice, Knot Tying, and Camouflage.

The girl from District 12 walks over to the Edible Plants station, and Abie Karimloo, District 6, decides to join her.
The girl from District 2 begins at the Sword Fighting station, and Kayly Scribbles, District 3, decides to have a go there too.
No one, except Ellie Rouke, District 4, makes at start at the Bow and Arrow Practice.
Leah Oakley, District 7, spots the Girl from District 1 at the Knife Throwing station, and decides that she's up for a bit of friendly competition.

Knife Throwing
"Hi." Leah says, politely.
"What do you want?" District 1 snaps.
"Nothing, just a bit of... competition." The girl pauses.
"Alright, then."

District 1 throws first. Her knife lands neatly, just millimetres from bulls-eye.
District 7 throws next. Her knife lands dead centre. "Bulls-eye." District 1's jaw drops.
"How...? You're not..."
"A career? No. I'm not like you. But not only careers know how to protect themselves." District 1 remains shell-shocked. "My name's Leah Oakley. What's yours?"
"Glimmer."

Sword Fighting
"You're not serious?" District 2 asks, when she sees Kayly brandishing a sword, wrong.
"What?"
" I mean, I know you're not a career, but surely everyone knows how to brandish a sword... Properly?"
"Well I'm not everyone."

Edible Plants
"Hi." Abie says to District 12.
"Hi."
"I'm Abie, District 6."
"Katniss, District 12."
"What's this one?" Asks Abie, pointing at a plant.
"That's Katniss."
"You were named after a plant?"
"Yes. Katniss is safe to eat."
"Thanks."
"No problem." Katniss looks over to Camouflage. The boy from District 12 has painted himself to look like a tree, and is blending in with the wall, perfectly.
"Who's that?"
"That's the guy from my district. Peeta."
"Oh, do you two get along?"
"Kind of."
"Hey, Nightlock. That's poisonous, right?"
"Yeah. I wouldn't eat that."
"Neither would I."
"Hey, what's this one? I've never seen it before."
"I'm not sure."
"Hmm..."

Bow and Arrow Practice
'Finally, I'm in my element.' Ellie thinks to herself as she picks up a bow and quiver of arrows. She sets her first arrow on the bow string an aims 2 millimetres above the target's forehead. She lands it dead centre of the target's forehead. She sets a second arrow, takes aim 2 millimetres above the centre of the targest heart, and lands it dead centre.
"You seem really good at that." Ellie spins around, third arrow poised on the bow string.
"Oh, it's you."
"And you're you."
"What are you doing here, District 7?" Ellie snapped, the disgust clear in her voice.
"Well, I beat District 1 at Knife Throwing, and thought I might challenge District 4 at Bow and Arrow Practice."
"You've got to be joking?"
"I just thought that if we act normal, no one will suspect."
"Fine."

Leah takes her own bow and quiver of arrows. She lands her first arrow half a millimetre below Ellie's first arrow. Leah's second arrow splits Ellie's second arrow in half. Leah shots a third arrow and lands it right in the place that hurts most (Imagining the target is male).
In anger, Ellie aims her third arrow at Leah's third, but misses the target completely, and her arrow finds it's place in the wall.

"Nice try, career." Leah laughs, but stops when Ellie turns on her.
"If you dare speak to me like that again, you'll regret it!"
"I'll try." And Leah walks off, leaving Ellie in a rage.
"What are you all staring at?!" To avoid her anger, all of the other 22 tributes turn away from Ellie and carry on with what they were doing.
