After waking up a bit later than planned, Lacey walked down to the Training Center. She walked through a doorway and looked around at all the tributes, from knocking down weapon racks, to figuring out which items were edible, and she shrugged. The competition didn't look too dangerous this year, so she decided to go to a station that was empty and try to practice by herself. She paced over to a station that held multiple bows of different styles, throwing daggers, spears, and really any other throwable/projectile weapon there is.

The tribute arrived at the station and looked over the assortment of weapons. She saw one particular blade that caught her eye, which gleamt a shiny silver. She walked over to it, and it looked like an aerodynamic ax, so she picked it up. It was lighter than she expected, so she held it firmly in her right hand. She walked up to a poster on the wall, explaining instructions for each weapon; she supposed that the Capitol did this because the instructors were too lazy to actually teach them. She did the motions unnoticeably and proceeded in front of a dummy.

"You can do this.. Just like the poster had on it..." she told herself before raising her arm and bending it at a 115° angle, and bringing her arm back forward and flicking her wrist while releasing the axe. In a second, it chopped off the left arm of the dummy. Lacey chewed on the inside of her cheek whilist thinking to herself, It probably isn't good enough to kill someone... In Lacey's opinion, it wasn't, and she probably has to learn how to improve her skills.

Spencer noticed that there was one girl at the Ranged Station, so he decided to go over to talk to her. When he arrived he noticed the rack of weapons. He walked over to it slowly making sure he did not startle the girl. When he got to the rack he noticed the assortment of bows, knives, swords, spears, etc. When he noticed the weapon he liked he picked it up to feel its weight. The sword he had chosen was a shiny silver with a goldish hue at the tip. When he walked over to the target he automatically threw the sword. To his amazement he hit the target perfectly. Back at district 12 they did not have many places for him to practice his sword fighting skills, but he always found a way to practice his skills even if was not an actual weapon.

Once he hit the target he walked over to retrieve the sword. When he returned he decided to try a different weapon. For his next weapon he chose the bow and arrow. Spencer had never used a bow before in his whole life. He was more the sword kind of guy. This was an experience that he wanted to make the most of considering that he was gonna die in a couple days time when the games start.

When he read the directions for how to use the bow he automatically put his knowledge to the test. He was very careful loading the arrow into the bow. Spencer pulled back the string of the bow and put it up to his face. He made sure to have his elbow a little higher up than usual. He closed one eye and let go of the string. For spencer's first time using a bow and arrow he had done pretty well. The arrow had landed on the target at least, but it only made it in the third ring not quite near the center.

After he was done he decided to try to talk to the strange girl. He walked up to the girl. "Hello. I'm Spencer I'm the male tribute from district 12."

Lorcan entered the training gym and looked around, there were several stations set up around the room. He wanted to learn some new skills so he decided to head over to the ranged station. There were already two people there, the boy from district 12, and the girl from district 8. He didnt remember either of their names, but it didnt really mater. Lorcan grabbed some throwing knives and made his way to the targets. He threw three of them trying to hit the bulls eye.

Lacey almost jumped out of her skin once she saw a sword whizz passed her head and onto a target. She turned around, almost frightened, but saw a male tribute. She raised an eyebrow as she saw him work with a few other weapons. After he was done he spoke to her, introducing himself. She pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows as a greeting in return. She looked back at the rack of weapons and she picked up a few throwing knives. She started throwing them one by one at the target, trying her best to stay accurate. Once hit around the neck of the target, one hit the lower torso, and the other hit close to the knee. She turned around once she heard footsteps behind her. She saw another tribute walking over, and she decided to at least attempt to find some potential allies.

"Uh, my name is Lacey," she said to both of the males at the same station she was at. She formed a small smile on her face before turning back to the weapons laid out for her to use. She wrapped her hands around two axes- one hand for each- and threw them at a target as quickly as she could. Speed and accuracy, she thought. They landed decently enough on the target to do some damage to the victim if it were a real target. She began to loosen up with the throwing knives and the axes, getting more comfortable and gaining skill already.
