Hey fourth chapter here.
Disclaimer: I own Olivia.
The gauntlet is harder than it looks. I gasp as I get hit with another foam stick. Remember: Focus and you won't get hit. I jump to the next step and duck as a trainer tries to hit me. I hope the arena isn't this hard.
Fire making is simpler than it looks. Terrible thing that I'm afraid of fire. But I gather up my courage and the rest of my dignity and learn how to start a fire using different materials.
That turns out badly as I almost burn the whole center by leaving the fire unattended. Oops.
Lunch is as usual but after talking with my mentor, Cordera, I decided to find some allies. Allies can be useful. I go over to Annabeth and Hazel, who are eating at a small table.
"Hello, I'm Olivia Collins. District Three. And who are you?"
"I'm Annabeth Chase. District Eight."
"Hazel Levesque, District Six."
"Glad to meet you, may I sit here?"
Hazel nodded slowly, like she wasn't sure. I don't blame her, I could kill her in the arena.
"So what do you think about the other tributes?" I ask them, unsure about the answer.
"Well what do you mean-looks or talent?" Well Annabeth is still the same.
"Both."
"District Ten boy is pretty strong. Seems like a good ally." Hazel says. Wow Hazel is completely different.
"What about me, do I seem like a good ally?"
"You seem fast. Kind of useless with bows but probably better with some other weapon. Your snares and traps are good. And you're sort of smart."
"Well that's good, right?"
"You don't seem useless like some of the others. Annabeth?"
"Hazel and I would like you as an ally. You could help us."
"Okay I'll be your ally on one condition, I kill Leo Valdez, District Twelve."
"Sure, we accept your request."
Hammock making is pretty simple. It's just tying rope together. Easy and neat. Hazel gave up on the job after a while and went to ask Frank if he could ally with us. Annabeth had of course a knack for it.
Sword fighting was easy. I had applied my skills from Camp into the sparring that I had with the trainer. That trainer never saw it coming.
I fall onto my bed after I finish for the day. I pick up the remote that laid on my table. I put on Safe and Sound by Taylor Swift and fall asleep listening to it. How serene.
I got a Mockingjay necklace. Bye! Later!
