Chapter 9  - The Private Sessions

The next days pass by in a blur of hard work and cramming as much stuff into my brain as I can. Zak is walking around with a crutch. I feel sorry for him because he has a massive disadvantage and is probably not going to come home alive all because of a training accident. 

The day has finally come to have the private training sessions with the Gamemakers. I'm waiting in a waiting room with tributes going in one after another and not coming out.  

The girls and boys are in different areas so that having one boy and one girl at one time makes today go a little faster. 

We are sitting in age order from youngest to oldest in our districts so I'm sitting in between Penelope and Amanda. I wonder how the boys are doing right now. 

Finally, after all this time spent waiting its finally Penelope's turn to go in. We all give her words of encouragement as she stands up and walks over to the door. She disappears through the doors and not long after they call my name and I head over to the doors. 

I walk into the training room, surprised to see it so empty. I look over at the Gamemakers and can tell that they have had more than one glass of wine. 

There is a huge wall that wasn't thee before in the middle of the training area that separates the girls area to the boys. 

I walk towards the axes ready to try my luck at my axe handling. I was never very good at it back home, I was better at climbing the trees rather than chopping them down. 

I pick up an axe and throw it towards the closest target where it hits almost in the centre. 'Wow that's even better than at home' I think to myself as I get ready to throw another one. This time I accidentally totally miss the target but hit another one behind it directly in the centre.  

I am having loads of luck right now and I'm hoping the Gamemakers are at least watching. 

Next I move on to the ropes course. 

I hoist myself up and start swinging like a monkey going from branch to branch. I climb on top of the ropes and then stand up. I balance as I walk to one end and jump down. 

I look up at the Gamemakers an see that only a quarter of them look quite impressed at what I did and the other tree quarters are either drunk, have their backs to me looking at the food or have passed out on the floor.  

One of them stands up and says to me 'thank you that is enough'. 

I walk out confident that I have done a decent job at my private session. I walk over to the elevator where I press the button and wait.  

The metal doors open and I step in and press the '7' button. The doors are about to close when a soft but muscular hand opens them back up. 

When they open fully I see the owner of the hand is the beautiful Rye. He struts in and presses the '11' button.  

'Wow the boys have gone a lot faster than the girls' is all I think. 

We are passing the second floor when he breaks the silence. 'Hi I'm Rye' he says to me with his hand out.  

'I know,' I reply 'from the reaping'.  

'Oh yeah, forgot about that,' he says 'I have been watching you during training, your pretty good'.
