District two's Helena "Howl" Draconix's POV

"What kind of score do you think you got girl?" My district partner, Lucifer, asked me. I looked at him and gave him a smile that told him exactly what I thought

"Hopefully one that's better then yours, remember our bet?"

"Yeah," he replied calmly "but I still think I'll win." In your dreams. I poisoned the weapons and used them like a master, there was no way that he could beat the score I was going to get. You could match it maybe, but you couldn't beat it. My sister and mentor, Elektra, flicked on the T.V in front of us. They were getting ready to announce the tribute scores, so we had shown up just in time for us to see what we had gotten.

"What do you think you kids got?" Our male mentor, a guy named Perseus, asked us as he fell on the large bright blue sofa to our right. Unlike my sister who planned out her strategy in the games and used her smarts and looks to her advantage in the arena, this guy's only plan was stab a tribute, stab another tribute, and stab some more tributes. That was a simple, but almost non-existent plan. If you could even call it a plan. If he tires to tell me a strategy for the arena, I'll just ignore him. I had a feeling it was kill, kill, and kill some more.

"Something good." Lucifer answered confidently "one of the best maybe." Of course, we were careers, we'd get the best scores. After all, this is what we trained for.

"Something better then him." I said pointing to Lucifer.

"We'll see girl." He replied. He wasn't worried at all. We then turned to the screen and saw a picture of Griffin get shown before a number nine appeared below his picture. A nine, I expected as much. Next they showed Lynsa's picture before flashing her score of ten. A ten, that suited her, her archery was first rate. They then showed Lucifer's picture before showing his score, nine. "Nine." He said to me proudly. My picture then showed up before flashing a better score.

"Ten." I told him proudly. I had beaten him, just as I expected. "I win."

"Whatever," he said like it didn't bother him "I didn't even try that hard."

"Neither did I." I told him. But the truth was, I did try, very hard. I then saw our district three ally, the giant. His picture showed him wearing his face muzzle, and he looked pissed, very. And below his picture, it showed that he scored an eleven. An Eleven!? That guy got a score better then us!?

"How?" Lucifer asked looking at the screen. "How did he-" he said before he stopped mid sentence. How was that possible, this guy was big and strong sure, but he didn't have any skills like us, did he?

"Good thing he's an ally and not an enemy right?" Perseus asked. Yeah, guess it was good that he wasn't an enemy, for now. Next it showed that other twelve year old girl who people were feeling sorry for. I was twelve, and I volunteered, she shouldn't be crying, whining, or anything. And people shouldn't be giving her sympathy either. She scored a six, a little better then average. Then up next was Shoney who scored an eight.

"Think reaped career girl will do fine?" Lucifer asked still looking at the screen.

"Probably not." I told him. Evaline was reaped, that meant she probably didn't train as well as us. And I was right, she didn't score as well as the majority of us, but she still got an eight. Well, she can hide behind our safety, for now.

Next, they showed that dumb girl from five. She scored a two. Not surprising, she was probably too dumb to show them something worth while. Next came the red eyed freak. He scored a five, the average score for a tribute. There was nothing special about him, just his looks.

Then came the pale boy from six. I don't even remember much of him. He scored a three. After him came that bitch who put me in a choke hold. Her multi blond hair flashed on screen before her score appeared. A ten. What!? She had a score as good as mine!? How? That scrawny girl couldn't possible do anything like us careers. What had she done?

"You've got some competition this year." Perseus told us. Not if I kill her in the bloodbath.

Next came district seven. The boy that Lucifer pushed around got an eight, even though he was a wimp. And the orange haired girl scored a six.

District eight came next. That fat boy scored a three while that curly haired girl scored a seven.

Now for our district nine ally. His picture flashed before they showed a nine. He was useful, defiantly, useful. The girl did good, but not as well as him with a seven.

The little district ten boy didn't do as well as the other young girl with a five. The girl did slightly better with a seven. Both tributes from eleven scored good scores with the boy we wanted scoring an eight and the girl scoring a seven. Shame that he wasn't with us, but it was his loss. He wouldn't be safe from us once he got in the arena. He'll learn his mistake soon enough. The last district, twelve, was pitiful as usual. The boy scored a one, and Lucifer laughed out loud when he saw what the fat boy scored. He laughed like it was the funniest thing he ever saw. The girl did good for someone from twelve though, a five.

"What do you think sis?" Elektra asked me as she turned off the T.V. All and all, most of the tributes were better then what you'd normally get in the games. That multi blond bitch scored a ten while lots of other tributes got six or higher. But still

"Nothing we can't handle." I told her smiling confidently. Because even though they got good training scores, we'd still have the advantage in the arena.
