Caspian Harbour POV

"Just aim a little bit higher than the target." I say to Alexandria who is doing terrible at throwing her shurikens. She was amazing back in 4. I don't know what's gotten into her her. She throws it again and it strikes the rings away from the bullseye.

"Ugh." She mutter and retrieves the knife.

"That one was better." I say

"No it wasn't." She mutters and throws again. It hits the ground behind the target.

"What's going on Alex?" I ask

"Don't you get it! Only one of us can get out these games. Maybe nether of us." She says

"Well I'm here to protect you. That's why I volunteered." I say

"Wait.. You don't think I can protect mysel? Is that it?" She says

"Well-

"Answer my question." She says

"I volunteered because I want to protect you. I lov-

"Answer my question." She repeats.

"No. I mean your good but if you get attacked by a career you'd be toast." I say immediately regretting it.

She looks at me with tear filled eyes. She looks so hurt.

"Alexandra I'm sorry. I loved you. I want to protect you!" I say

"Ya well maybe you should have thought about that before said I'm weak!" She shouts

"I'm sorry." I repeat

"I'm no longer aligning with you Caspian. Screw you." She says and storms out.

I look around the room and realize everyone is staring at me.

Sheri Sherman POV

Gosh. The lovers from 4 finally end their little drama session. Love, is a horrible thing that rips people apart. Like my parents. They loved each other to much and then they got sick of each other. My father ended up killing my mom in her sleep. He later killed himself. Now me and Stacey live with our older brother Steven. Well Stacey loves with Steven now.

Anyway, I can finally get back to training. I load an arrow into a bow and shoot it at a target. It's sails straight into the bullseye. I smile and load another bow but I'm interrupted by a high pitched scream. I turn and see the girl from 5, Brynn pinned to the ground by her district partner Isaac. He is holding a knife. Before I know what I'm doing one of my arrows is flying in Isaac's direction. It sticks into his shoulder and he yelps in pain. He jumps up and charges at me. When a peacekeeper injects an orange fluid into his arm. He collapses into the peacekeepers arms. The peacekeeper then drags Isaac's unconscious body out of the training centre.

Brynn slowly gets up and walks over to me.

"Hey." I say

"Thank you for what you did." She says

"No problemo." I say

"I mean it. You saved my life." She says

"Ya well I wasn't gonna let him kill you." I say

I'm about to turn away when she says "Allies?"

"Sure." I say and smile at her
