Ranged Training

I walked into the training room, and looked around. There were a lot of stations, and I knew I needed to visit a few of them. I saw ranged weapons laying on a rack. I walked up to them, and picked out a few different weapons. A few daggers, some throwing knives, and a boomerang type weapon. I took position at one of the targets and took aim. I threw 5 knives, and hit 3 bullseyes. 'Not bad, but still could use some improvement.' I thought to myself. I retrieved them, and then took my stance again, this time I was going to use the boomerang. I flipped it in my hand a few time, getting a feel for it. I took aim at my target, wound up and released the weapon. I watched as it barreled towards the target, and then it cleanly sliced the head off. It fell to the floor with a thud. I ducked as it came back towards me, but landed safely on the floor only a few feet from me. I walked over to it, and picked it up. I laughed quietly to myself. 'I hope they have these in the games.' I said to no one in particular.

Walking into the training center, I felt more at home then ever. The capitol training center wasn't like district 2's center but close enough. I walk up and study as a boy from district 7 is throwing boomerangs. Not good, not bad. Someone to look out for later. I take my stance and throw a knife with ease and watch as it hits the dummy's heart in the bulls eye. Knives were always my strong area.
