The Hunger Games: Yellow Flicker Beat

Chapter 21: Enough Fun, Time For Training.

"What do you mean 'training' Magsy?" Carolyn whined. She didn't like training. Noseritto.

"Isn't that what the film's for?" Mags asked.

"No." Carol retorted.

"Still," Mags continued. "enough fun. It's time for you to train."

"Train for what?" Carol asked.

"You'll see." Mags said.

"But I wanna see it now!" Shouted Carol.

"If I told you, wouldn't that ruin the surprise?" Mags pointed out.

Mags got Carol good there.

"No." Carolyn responded a little disappointed.

"That's my point." Spoke Mags.

"Alright." Carol replied as she rolled her eyes. Carolyn didn't like surprises. She wanted to know what they were immediately. But this time she has to wait.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moments later, Carol was outside with Mags and Finnick. They both have armor on. But Carol was happy to see her favorite training buddy, Cato.

"Cato!" Carol rushed to Cato with a broad smile on her face.

"No hug for me?" Cato joked, but he was serious.

Carol hit Cato in the arm not too hard, and not too soft.

"Ouch," Cato pretended to be in pain. "what was that for?"

"You don't ask for a hug Cato," Carol pointed out. "you wait patiently for one." With that, Carol gave Cato a huge hug.

"I'm very impatient." Cato replied kissing Carol's head lightly.

"Just like me." Carol looked up at him and grinned.

"That's something we have in common then." Cato smiled.

"Anyways," Carol began. "what brings you to 4?"

"Mags and Finnick called me." Cato answered.

"Because?" Carol questioned.

"Helping you train." Cato said.

"But I don't need help!" Carol reasoned.

"Sure you don't." Cato smirked in sarcasm.

"I don't!" Carolyn spoke as she pushed Cato away. But since Cato was strong, he moved a step away. So much for being weak. Carol crossed her two arms and puffed madly.

"It's true." Cato responded.

That was it. She quickly ran to Annie's house. She opened the backyard's door. Carolyn just couldn't take it anymore. No it isn't!, Carol yelled in her mind as she went inside. She decided to disguise herself again.

Carol went inside the guest room and changed. She got out her white sandals, black shorts, and jeans blue shirt. The she but her hair in a bun but left strands of hair in the front. Carol smiled.

If I'm gonna be normal again, I gotta have fun, she told herself. Carol sneaked outside in the front door quietly hoping nobody saw her. Time to explore District 4, she giggled. Like usual, the camera crew caught what she was doing. A rebellion. What will President Snow think of this?
