(view spoiler)[ Mark walked in. He grabbed a spear and threw it at a dummy. It hit the center. He grabed a knife and did the the same. He then threw a trident sword, dagger, etc and they all hit the center. He smiled pouudly. He walked out. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Aurora walked in, and immediately laid a bunch of plants out before her. She tapped them one by one, told their names, and properties (poisonous or not, etc.) Then, she picked up a spear and dagger, nailed the dummy in the chest, and scaled the wall in a couple of seconds. She did back handsprings out, then flipped out the door with a wave. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Ethan walked in, a little unsure of himself. He went around the stations, made intricate traps that could bind a person in a second. He also made one that could snap a persons neck, or paralyze them. He moved onto the knife throwing dummies. He grabbed a double bladed knife and whirled around the dummies, demolishing them one by one with skill. He walked out, tapping his fingers nervously. (hide spoiler)]

Kayna walked with confidence into the private training session. She saw the game makers laughing and eating above her, on a ledge. She picked up five knives and put them in her belt. "For Ian," she whispered to herself. She faced the three cutout targets in front of her. Kayna narrowed her eyes, gripped a knife, and threw it at the middle cutout: it hit dead center of the chest. She threw two more, hitting the center of the heart target. She threw her other two, hitting the skulls of the two outside targets. The head game maker wrote something on a clipboard. "Thank you, you may now leave."

(view spoiler)[ Daisy walked in she was terrified.She picked up a bow, she noched the arrow, she aimed at the target. She let the string go and the arrow hit the center. She set down the bow and picked up different kinds of mashed berries and stuff. She spread it over her arm in different colors, when she was done, her arm looked like a jungle tree. She smiled and walked out. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Carmin walked in picking up the crossbow that sat there. She turned shooting multiple arrows at the cutouts. Each arrow landing square in the chest on in the middle of the head. One target stood about 50 feet away from her. She turns and shoots and arrow having it land in the neck of the cut outs. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Phoenix strolled in calmly. He picked up a bow and arrow, and shot the arrow into the dummy's heart. He threw a spear, and the spear sliced the arrow in half. He then proceeded to disembowl all of the dummies, one by one, until a pile of straw was the only thing left. He walked out, not even breaking a sweat. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[Benedict Home heard his name called from inside the square room. The fluorescent lights had started to hurt his eyes. He blinked several times before rubbing them gently with the side of his hand. The room was sparse, most of the tributes had already been called. He didn't bother to meet anyone's gaze. He had to focus on himself and his honed skills. He had talked himself through this procedure hundreds of times (it seemed) in his head. When the electronic voice announced his name, he stood up and walked out into the open, helplessly vulnerable.

The loud echoing of Ben's worn boots were the only sign of anyone else in the room. His eyes wandered to those of the Judges'. They seemed bored, complexed and humble all at once. He turned his head away knowing he had to focus on the task at hand or he would be doomed before the Games even began. There were several set up tables of weapons, giant circular balls and even paint. Creativity flowed freely here and Ben suddenly felt overwhelmed. He strutted to the knife table and picked up an exact copy of the beloved long edged knife that was laying in the Training Center. He felt the sharp edge with the palm of his hand. The blade was so sharp it could have cut him to the point of needing stitches, but he didn't press it in hard enough for that. His eyes met those of the Judges' once again as he took a balanced stance before the wounded dummy. There were several small puncture wounds from arrows already in the dummy. He would lie awake tonight thinking about the other tributes' performances; imagining how they carried themselves and executed their performance. He placed the blade on the palm of his hand once more. He pushed down on the blunt edge of the knife, hard. Searing pain scoured his body and his heart raced with the familiar adrenaline from before. Blood began to drip onto the ground while a sinister smile was placed on Ben's placid face. The wound wouldn't need stitches, just antibiotics and a clean bandage. He spread his palm across both his cheeks, creating lines of blood on his cheeks. It was a threat. A threat to the other tributes; to the Capitol. He turned his attention to the dummy and brought his arm back, the only sound being the faint dripping of blood as pressure increased on his wound. Under his breath he counted, one. Two. He threw the knife at the dummy, but this time instead of piercing the neck, the knife pierced the heart. Only a sliver of metal erupted from the dummy's chest. The knife was lodged deep within the symbolic heart of the dummy. In that moment, life seemed like a play and that play produced hope for Ben. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Ginger walked in, she glared at the Gamemakers. "I hate you guys. You are horrible people." She said and spat on the ground, she turned around and left. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Carla turned to the gamemakers. Making sure they were watching, she picked up a sword and gave them the 'give me something to fight' look. Then, about a dozen robotic thingies started attacking her. She reacted quickly, though. In a few minutes, she had finished them off. She gave them the 'that was too easy, give me something harder next time' look. One of them nodded to say that she was dismissed. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Stephanie walked in. She turned, smiled at the Gamemakers, and began. She walked over the archery station, grabbed a bow and three arrows, then dashed up the rock climbing wall in a matter of seconds. She took the bow and shot an arrow and hit the target easily a hundred feet away. She hit the dummy in the heart. Stephanie then took a dagger a threw it. It sliced through the arrow, burying the hilt until there was almost nothing visible. She did a backflip off the climbing wall, landing on her feet. Stephanie looked at the Gamemakers. She smiled brilliantly. "Thank you so much for your time. Better watch me in the games. If you blink, you'll miss me winning." Her voice echoed through the room. She smiled, then did backhand springs out of the room. When she saw the rest of the tributes waiting nervously, she smiled. "I crushed it. Will you?" (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Minnie walked in. She grabbed a bunch of knives and ran to the climbing wall. She threw them at the dummies while climbing the wall. They didn't miss. Next, she wove a trap.Then she bowed. As she went out she threw her last knife at the thin string. The knife hit, and the trap snapped. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ Navin walked in. He ran to the sword station and played around. Next he painted his leg brown and it looked sort of like a tree stump. Then he bowed to the game makers and walked out. He saw Daisy waiting, smiled and said "You're gonna do great." (hide spoiler)]

[ Jarin walked inside. "So, time to show you weaklings what I can do." Jarin said. Jarin shot 4 arrows, all dead center. Jarin slashed some Dummies. "And you'll have to wait for my other tricks, bye." Jarin said as he left. ]

[Elric138]

[Ochio walked inside. "District 11." Ochio said. Ochio threw some spears, hitting the mark everytime. Ochio sorted herbs on either poisonous, useless or helpful. Ochio left]
