(Song~ Heaven Knows ~ The Pretty Reckless)

I was sitting in the room with all of the other tributes. Today we will have our private sessions with the gamemakers. And I was nervous. District 1 goes first, then it goes down the line till it's district 12. It takes quite a while until they get to me. I nervously get up and head over to the door.

"Katniss." Peeta says. I turn around and look at him. "Shoot straight." I nod my head and continue through the door.

Once I get inside my eyes first land on the bow. I've desired for all of these days to go and use it, and now it's right there out in the open.

"Katniss Everdeen?" One of the gamemakers ask. I focus my attention on them and nod my head. He nods his head back, signaling me to do something.

Immediately I walk over to the bow area. I pick it up and examine it. It's a lot different from the bow I use back home, but this one will have to do. I pull back the string to try to get use to it. When I feel like I can use it, I grab a arrow and attach it to the bow. I focus and pull back the string.

It goes flying through the air and... misses. It lands a couple of inches from the head. I hear some of the gamemakers laughing, but I ignore them. I grab another arrow and try again. I focus a little more and shoot. It landed right in the heart.

I turn back to the gamemakers to see them not even paying attention to me. They have all of their attention on a roasted pig! Now I am mad. A pig is getting more attention than my shooting! Before I know what I'm doing I'm grabbing a arrow and aiming it at the apple that the pig has in its mouth.

I shoot the bow, and just like I wanted it's in the apple, which is on the wall. The gamemakers are looking at me startled and shocked.

"Thank you for your consideration." I say with a little bow. I put the bow back on the rack and walk out without being dismissed.

[let's just fast forward a lil bit ;)]

"What were you thinking?!" Effie shrieked after hearing about what I did to the gamemakers pig.

"I don't know!" I groaned.

"Obviously you weren't thinking at all!" Effie sighed.

"I just got angry." I say.

"You also shot a arrow at the gamemakers." Effie pointed out.

"Will you two quiet down?" Haymitch asked, well more like commanded.

"Do you understand how serious this is?" Effie asked, directing the question towards Haymitch.

"What are they going to do? They aren't going to do anything about it. The worse they could do is give her a low score." Haymitch reasoned.

Effie sighed and rolled her eyes. We were all gathered around the tv because the scores were going to be on soon. Everyone was eager to see Peeta and I's score. And just like that Caesar flashed on the screen. He was holding a sheet of paper that must hold everyone's score.

He introduced himself and started reading off the scores. The careers got really high scores and also the pair from 11. I'm surprised Rue got a 7, she must've done something really good to impress the gamemakers.

Finally he got to district 12. Peeta got a score of 8. Everyone including me congratulated him. He did really well. And finally he went to me.

"And Katniss Everdeen with a score of" He paused for a bit, and looked back down at the sheet of paper. "11." The room was quiet for a bit. Then there was a faint thud coming from below.

"What was that?" I asked confused.

"I have no idea." Says Peeta.

I look at Haymitch, Cinna, Portia and Effie. They're all staring at me with smiles.
3, 2, 1.

"Katniss that's fantastic!"

"Good job!"

"You did well sweetheart!"

"Congratulations!"

They applauded me, laughed and joked around. We all had a good time celebrating Peeta and I's great scores. But I was still kind of in shock. I bested all of the careers scores! Ha ha! Take that careers!

"To Katniss and Peeta!" All 4 shout. I smiled and I looked over to see Peeta grinning widely.

"Congrats." Peeta said.

"Thanks, congrats to you too." I said smiling at him

"Thanks." Peeta said smiling even more, if that's even possible.

Once all of the excitement died down it was time for bed. We all said our goodnights and left to our rooms. I quickly changed and crawled into bed. Getting ready for a goodnights sleep.

Hope you enjoyed!!!
