Thalia POV
I walk over to the door knowing my name will be called. And just as I assumed it has just been called and I walk in the doors felling as confident as I can.
The game makers mutter some things about the last tribute that was here as I walk over to the archery station.
I grip the bow in my hands like its the only thing that matters, in the games I know getting this will be hard and it will might cause death but it's the only thing that gives me a chance at winning.
I grab a quiver of arrows and walk into what seems to be an indoor range, but all of a sudden the walls transform into what seems to be an outdoor place, it looks like a grassy meadow, I realize, this is the arena.
I look around and see nothing but the tall grass in the meadow. It seems so peaceful that I almost loose concentration, when I hear something move my only thing to do is get down. The axe goes shooting past me with a fast speed, I swiftly load an arrow and draw and the arrow fly's straight into the dummy's stomach. With that one down, I notice something in the corner of the room that says 26/27 dead.
When the next one comes, I'm already prepared, I've already nocked it and drawed it. I let the arrow fly but that tribute moved more swiftly so he dodged it with a roll. He grabs a knife and whips it at me, the knife skims my left temple and I sigh with relief, just as the dummy gets another knife I let the arrow fly right into its heart.
I load an arrow and run over to the dummy and grab a knife just in case of hand on hand. Just as I hear a footstep I draw the arrow and let it fly not knowing the dummy's hit till I hear a thump.
I look back up at the wall and see that I'm only at 23/27 witch means I need to probably speed up the process.
I try climbing up a virtual tree but it's just a hologram, that means everything is a hologram, so there must be a projector.
I look all around but cannot find it, when I realize I'm still in the course I quickly load an arrow but I didn't realize that the climate has changed, now all I can see is harsh winds coming at me with multiple white flakes. A blizzard. It starts to get colder each second, dropping down each degrees.
A knife goes right past me my head and I load an arrow and shoot it towards where the knife was thrown.
I look for the thing on the wall that shows me how many dead and see it says 22/27, this frustrates me. I kill a few more easily and see it says 19/27. I get even more frustrated so I quickly load and draw the arrow then let it fly straight at the thing and it bursts into sparks and stops working.
That's when I see it, the projector, hidden on the wall and it front of it stands a bush trying to cover it.
An arrow just goes flying past my arm and I quickly throw the knife I got from the dummy and it lands in his upper leg. He falls to the ground, I quickly look around and see no dummies in sight so I load an arrow draw it and let it fly right into the machine. Sparks start to fly everywhere and the room starts to glitch back into what it looked like when I came in.
I sigh with relief and walk out of the archery course. I place my bow back down and stare back up at the game makers.
"You are dismissed" one of them says.
Cole's POV
I hear my name being called, it echoes through the room until I realize I should go in.
I walk in seeing the training center looking much bigger but I guess that's since there's practically no one inside of it but me. It's still the same old training center. The same training center for Katniss, the girl who tried to rebel against the capital yet failed.
I was told to show your greatest ability but I have no clue what mine is. I guess I could try different things, first I guess I'll try to throw a spear.
I walk over and grasp the spear in my hands till I realize I have to throw it. I wish I didn't have to do this, I'm probably just gonna fail.
I grasp the spear tightly in my hands and pull it back and throw it with not slot of effort. The spear misses the dummy and I grunt in frustration.
I grab the next one pull with slightly more effort but I guess not enough considering it didn't hit the target.
Now this gets me mad. I yank a spear from a rack and pull it adding a step to add more force and it pays of, the spear finds its target and hits the dummy in the head.
I feel a little better about myself now, I hit the target! now I just need to somehow repeat it.
I grab another spear and pull then chuck it at the dummy with all my might. It ends up hitting the dummy in the heart.
I'm about to grab another spear but I am interrupted by someone saying "You are dismissed" from behind me.
I leave the training center feeling a little bit better about myself, now I can actually defend myself if I can get a spear, but that's only if.
