Capitol Sweethearts [Finnick Odair]

- For The Show -

Katniss had been going around talking to a few of the more friendlier-looking victors when she caught sight of Qetsiyah making a raft out of some materials left on a table. On the table, there were ropes, hooks, feathers, boards, buoys, among other scraps.

"That's a nice-looking raft." She commented.

Qetsiyah looked up at the younger girl and nodded. "Thank you. You never know what the games will throw at you."

"I saw you volunteer for that girl. Annie?"

"Yeah. She is a good friend and a little unstable. I couldn't let her come here. I imagine it was the same for your sister. You did the right thing for her."

"Yeah." It was awkward for a moment before she asked, "Do you think you could teach me how to make a hook? I could teach you how to hunt."

Qetsiyah thought for a moment before grabbing her hook that Mags had taught her how to make. "Sure but I can't take all the credit for these bad boys. Mags, a Victor in my district taught me."

Qetsiyah spent most of her time giving Katniss step-by-step instructions on the hook and explaining how to fish correctly. Once they were done and Katniss copied her correctly as best she could they went over to the holographic simulator for hunting.

"Do you want to go with me or should I go first?" Katniss asked.

"You go first. Then I'll join you after."

Katniss nodded then grabbed a bow and stepped inside.

"Finnick! Look at her!" Qetsiyah called her partner over as she watched Katniss aim perfectly at her targets. She could tell she's been hunting for years because there was no way she did that with a few training days.

Qetsiyah and Finnick applauded the show and Katniss blushed from the attention. Qetsiyah grabbed a bow and arrow and walked through the doors to join Katniss.

"From the looks of it the arenas gonna be wooded so hunting will probably be beneficial to us," Katniss said as she grabbed some of Qetsiyah's arrows.

Qetsiyah watched how Katniss prepared her bow and mocked her as best as possible.

"You got the hold down but keep the feathered part in between your pointer and middle finger." Katniss saw a whole holograph build up and rush toward them. "Shoot there." She pointed and Qetsiyah hit in the middle of the chest. "That was good. Now together."

Katniss fixed up her bow and the two continued to practice fast movements to hit the hiding and running targets. If Qetsiyah hit a non-fatal blow Katniss would end it with a headshot or chest shot.

"I'm getting good at this." Qetsiyah smiled as she hit a target peeking over a beam in the upper corner. She ducked as Katniss ducked an axe and hit a hologram running at them. "Nice save." She stood back up and aimed at another hologram who was aiming at them with a spear and hit them in the head.
