The 86th Hunger Games

Chapter 7-- Training Day, or Talking Day?

Silver's P.O.V***************************************************

It was such a fabulous morning. Got dressed brushed my teeth like any other day. I had some breakfast, which was anything I wanted. Pancakes. It was very delicious. Then I went and watch some T.V.

" Silver, hope you have an amazing day at training, it is almost time to go." Said Patricia walking into the room.

I almost forgot! I had training! I am probably not going to train that much, I'm going to talk to the tributes. That is probably what Jewell is going to do also.

" Hey Silver!" shouted Jewell." Are you ready to go to training?"

"Yeah, except I'm not really going to train today. I'm going to talk to the other tributes."

"Silver! That is an amazing idea! Should I do it with you."

" No, no you should train. I will do all the talking, and I will make sure to include you into our conversations," I said.

" Thanks Silver, good luck!" she says.

We both go down to the training center. We see all the tributes there, we are the last ones to arrive.

" Finally you guys have come, well welcome to the training center.  You all with be training here, or you could mess around and get killed in the real Hunger Games. I don't think you guys want that. You are not aloud to fight, you could get to that once your in the games. There are lots of things you could learn here. The training with end at eigh-o-clock. You could still train though. So now is the time to train, have fun!" says the Woman.

I see about half of the tributes go to the swords, so I go there first. The first person I see is the boy from district 2, no suprise.

"Hello," I say.

" Hey, did you catch what me and Rain said at the chariot parade." he says

" Yes we did, and to make sure, you said if we wanted to be allies.

 " No, we said we were going to kill you first," he says in a sarcastic voice.

" K, got it," I say jokingly. " And I didn't catch your name, what is it?" I ask.

" It is Blade, my parents named me that because they wanted me to be good with the blade of the sword," he grins creepily.

When I leave I catch a glimpse of him doing his thing with the swords.. He is amazing at it. He is flawless, he swings the sword perfectly and cuts the manicans head clean off.

Then, I see the girl from district 6 she looks about twelve, or thirteen years old. I go up to her

" Hello!," I say happily.

" Hey," she says quietly.

" Do you need help with anything?" I ask

" Um, yeah," she says. " How do I hold the sword?"

" Oh it's easy let me show you,"

I grab the sword.

" This is a two handed sword, I don't think you want to use this, but if you are right handed, you put your right hand above the left, and if you are left handed, put your left hand over the right," I say confidently.

" Thanks! she says.

" So, what is your name?" I ask.

" Veeria," she replies.

" That's a lovely name," I say smiling.

As I walk away she stops me

" Um, it's okay if you say no, I understand, but can you be my ally?" she asks looking at the floor.
