73rd hunger games {finnicks sister}

5

I lounge around in our apartment, casually in a pair of tights and overflowing top. Today we have to show the game makers our skills. I'm not sure what I'll do. Maybe knives since I used them back home.

My thoughts are interrupted when Finnick sits next to me. "There's a way for you to get more sponsors. The Capitol is all about emotions and over dramatics. To get a high score tonight. Make everything dramatic. Every single movement. Make them want more."

"I think I'm going to use knives or something like that. I've already befriended the career pack. We're going to work together. If I survive until the last handful when it's my turn to watch at night I'll make a run for it. I don't want to be a murderer Finnick. I guess I'll have to fly instead of fight."

"You better get ready. Your clothes are on your bed. Annie and I will take you and Jules down." I give him a quick kiss in the cheek before going to my room. I quickly get changed into a tight fitting one piece with the number 4 on my back and a soft pair of sneakers.

I run out of the room and meet Annie Finnick and Jules. We get into the elevator and go back down to the training room. Annie and gimmick talk to the other mentors. I go over to glow since I could spot her bright blonde hair.

"Hi glow."

"Hey Ariel. How are you."

"I'm excited. How are you." I reply kindly.

"A bit bored to be honest. Barely anybody here looks like they could kill a fly never mind survive the games."

"I know. But I have to admit that the guy from 9 looks tough."

"Yeah. But we could take him."

"District 1: spark. Please report for final evaluation." We see work get up and walk in.

"Well I better go get back to my seat. See you later glow."

I walk back to my stool next to Jules.

"Would you look at that. You actually made a friend. Shame she's gonna kill you when you step foot in the arena." Jules teases.

"Jules. Shut up. I've had enough of you. The constant bullying when we were in 4. Now you're gonna try it here. Good luck with that." I whisper shout.

"Oh would you look at that. Your not afraid anymore. Is that because you already know that your going to die." He torments me.

I look up and see that we are probably going to be called in next.

"Oh please. What's are you going to do in the arena. Try to kill people by squashing them. I have to say if anyone in that arena is going to turn into a cannibal they could survive the games by eating off of you. So do us all a favour and next time you try to be nasty to someone or try to bring them down. Judge yourself first." I rant.

"District 4: Ariel odair. Please report for final assessment." The intercom announces. I get up and strut into the training room.

I get straight to work since I know that I don't have long. I grab 5 knives then I ask one of the workers with padding on to battle me. I collect a thick piece of material then face the judges.

"To show the skills I have I am going to be throwing knives at this worker as he runs around the room. To make this more interesting I am going to be doing it blindfolded."

I tie the piece of material around my head and then transfer a knife from my left hand to my right. "Go" I shout. I listen closely and then through my knife. I wait about thirty seconds then throw one again. To impress them even more I start running and throwing the knives. On my final knife I take the blindfold off and walk over to the man who has 4 knives aimed all over his heart.

"I would like you to throw this knife at me whilst I have my blindfold on. I hope you have a good aim."

I take 10 steps back and put on my blindfold. As I hear him take an intake of breath as he pulls back I start to sprint and do a flip until I land on top of him. I disarm him then stab the knife into his padding.

I stand up and take off my blindfold helping the poor worker up. "Thank you." He walks away.

"Well done miss odair. Thank you for showing us your skills." I nod my head at them before exiting and going back to the apartment.

As soon as I walk in I'm swarmed with questions. From everyone. I excuse myself and go take a nap.
