Training

chapter 3! Hope you guys enjoy! This might be a bit long by the way. 

Lily's POV

I toss the weapons onto my bed and cross my room to my wardrobe. I undress and pull on a black racer back sports bra and a tight fitting dark purple tank top. I also slip on a pair of black leggings with mesh detailing down both legs. 

Once I'm done I pull a knife belt on so it sits on my waist. 

I leave the closet and cross over to the frame less, full length mirror leaning against my wall. 

I am quite tall for my age but I'm still about an inch shorter than both my parents. My red hair hangs to the small of my back and my eyes are a stormy grey colour. 

I bend down and pick up a stray brush sitting next to my feet. 

May as well put my hair up. 

I run the brush through my unruly locks before pulling my hair into a high pony tail. Once I deem my hair satisfactory, I spin on the spot, six large steps to my bed, sling my quiver over my shoulder, slip my knives and guns into my belt, scoop up my bow and leave my room. 

As I leave the room I grab the pair of black combat boots that are sitting next to my door, with my free hand and shut my door. 

-----------------------

I walk quickly through the halls and try my hardest not to run. Training is my favourite thing to do. Always. 

I head downstairs quickly and enter the large kitchen/dining room area. Tony, Mum and Steve are all either sitting or standing in the kitchen chatting. 

"Hey Katniss" Tony calls mockingly. Seriously. His nicknames are ridiculously annoying. I roll my eyes. 

"Training?" Steve asks. 

I nod even though its pretty obvious. I don't usually arm myself to the teeth. Then again, I do almost always carry over ten, various concealed weapons on me. 

Steve turns to mum disapprovingly. He is most definitely the 'mother hen' of the group. According to him, however, I shouldn't be doing training. 

He and I definitely have different views on the matter. 

Mum sees his expression and smirks. 

"Your dad is down there waiting for you" She says to me with a smile. "I'll come train with you once he's done" 

I nod with a smile and take the stairs down to the training room, consequently warming up my leg muscles in the process. 

The training room is the size of an aircraft hanger (I'm pretty sure it was at one point), and has everything you could ever need. Obstacle courses ranging in difficulty, fighting mats, a full set of gymnastics apparatus's, shooting ranges and more. 

As usual I find dad at the archery range. Shooting arrows. 

"Hey dad" I call. He stops firing. 

"Hey Lily" he calls back as I approach. 

"You ready for training?" He asks when I reach him. 

"Am I ever?" I reply. He laughs before grabbing my hand and leading me to the armory. 

Why is he taking me here? He knows I prefer my own weapons. 
He lets go of my hand and opens the door before stepping aside.
