I stand outside the tall training building, right next to my new school. Taking a deep breath I push open the metal doors and venture inside. My training uniform, is simple, yet comfortable. An aqua (I'm so sick of that colour, I hate that my name is a colour!) coloured t-shirt and some black cropped leggings type thing. They are made out of a material I don't recognise. Must be from the Capitol.

As soon as I'm through the door, I can hear the chatter of excitement, people waiting to start training, they love it so much. As I walk further in, a woman, who must be in her 40s , with shoulder length blond hair, and sea green eyes, approaches me. "hello, my name is Wendy. You may know my daughter, Mags. She won the 9th hunger games, at age 14 with help from your father. I just want you to know that I'm very thankful of his help towards my daughter" the woman says whilst shaking my hand. I smile at her, she seems like a really kind woman. I wonder why Mags never introduced us to her, she's like my older sister, and she acts as a mother figure towards me. "It's lovely to meet you. I'm surprised that Mags has never introduced us to you, she's like my sister. You're all she ever talks about. She really does love you" she smiles back at me. "How lovely, I would come and visit, but the houses seem so big and lonely. Plus I have work, and the younger children to look after" "Mags did say about her coming from a big family" Wendy smiles at me, and guides me into the middle of the room where everyone else is. "Right trainers. We have a new trainer joining us, she's just moved up from pre-trainers. Her name is Aqua Brooke" once she says my name I hear laughter throughout the group. "Aqua Brooke, you have got to be kidding me" "she's from that Capitol scum" "she shares blood with a Capitol person, discussing" "how dare that piece of dirt walk in here" "she's going to be a laughing stock" those were just some of the things I heard whispered throughout the crowd of careers. That's when I realised, no one here is scared of me. All my life I've been told that people avoid me because they are scared of me, because of what they saw when I was a pre-trainer, because my dad is a victor. No, they avoid me because they think I'm a piece of dirt, that I have 'dirty blood'. Ill show them

"SILENCE" I heard Wendy shout. "Thank you. Now, I was 20 laps around the hall now" she orders, and people make their way towards a door, that must take you to the hall. "20 LAPS NOW"! She shouts. No one hesitates, so I do the same, and start running around the hall. It's a good job I'm fit and healthy, as only halfway through the laps, I can see people slowing down, out of breath. Yet I'm not even tired. "Well that was fun" I whisper to myself as I come to a stop. That wasn't even hard. My dad has me training harder. "Look at her, thinking she's so great and strong because she can run. I think it's time someone showed her, her place" I heard someone whisper behind me. "Right, well done all of you. Now today, we are working on hand to hand combat. Now partner up boy girl please" Wendy orders. Great, who am I going to partner up with.
"Hey, I'm Luke, and I wanted to know if you would be my partner" I heard a voice come from behind me. It's the same voice from before.
"Are you talking to me"? I ask him. "Uh, yeh" he says in a duh like tone. "Fine, whatever" I say back, acting like I'm bored.
"Oo look at that, new girl's got an attitude" Luke says, making the people around him laugh. Luke is tall, like twice the size of me. He has to be about 17. He has tanned skin, like the rest of us in district 4. It's almost always sunny here. He has the famous district 4 look, blonde hair and sea green eyes. "Right, now you've got your partners, I want you all in the combat hall, and then I want you all to go and stand by a mat, one mat per pair. MOVE IT PEOPLE"! Wendy shouts.

"This is going to be fun. Beating up the outsider. Don't worry, ill take it easy on you. Or maybe not. You do know that no one wants you here. You're the outsider. You have dirty blood. No one wants you. Your own mother didn't want you. She sent you here, where you are hated by everyone. You can see that your father doesn't even love you. I bet he will be disappointed in you. That his Capitol halfbreed daughter is useless. You know what, now that I think about it, your father is a piece of scum as well" Luke says, so the people around us can here but not loud enough that any of the teachers can here. My blood starts to boil.
"You can talk about me as much as you want, in any way that you want" I say through gritted teeth."you can talk about my so call mother as much as you want. She's nothing to me" I spit at him. The look on his face is priceless. He obviously didn't know I was going to talk back to him like this. "BUT IF YOU DARE, TALK ABOUT MY FATHER LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN" I shout, whilst flipping him over, sitting on his back, and grabbing his arm, so it's pushed around his back, making him hiss in pain. I bend over so I'm right next to his ear. I can see tears making their way out of his eyes. "You're dead" I whisper. I get up and put a smirk on my face, brushing my hands together. I lift my head up and notice that every pair of eyes on me. Most looking at me with their mouths wide open, eyes full of shock. Others who have talked to me once or twice, smile at me. I look at Wendy, she looks proud.
"Your all dismissed" I heard her shout. Yet no one moves. I walk over to this girl, who before we split into pairs was hanging off Luke's arm, and put my finger on the bottom of her chin, and close her mouth.
"Close your mouth sweetheart, you'll catch flies" I say in an innocent voice, then I turn around and walk out of the door, and head home. A smirk still stuck on my face
