Fake Talent

I went to the knives station and started throwing them. I was pretty good, considering the fact that it wasn't too different than spearing. I got a few near the center. "Good." I said and kept throwing.

Marnie Kaleen

I walked slowly from behind one of the pillars and watched Hunter throw knives. He wasn't that good, but good enough to kill I walked closer to him and grabbed a knife. "Need help?" I asked, throwing a knife towards a target, hitting the center.

I laugh when she does. Then I grab a spear and throw it at the dead center, knocking away the girl's knife. "Don't ever think I need help again eleven. I'm a career. I was born ready to do this."

I blink back tears for some goddamn reason, and back away, grabbing the bow for safety. "Sorry for bothering you. I just wanted to make friends." I walked around the side of him. I shot the arrow, it hit the center, and I replaced it. I chose a different target and threw the knife, it hit the center, and I threw a spear at a different target, hitting the center. "If you needed help in the games, you've proved that you wouldn't want any," I say, still blinking back tears.

I thought about something. "Wait!" I said to her before she left. "Zi might add you as a career. I'd have to talk about it to the others.... But you can't be sensitive." I look at her and see that she is about to cry.

Silver had been watching Hunter and Marnie for a while. She wanted Marnie on her team, but she didn't know if Hunter and Flint wanted her. Silver was secretly hoping Hunter and Marnie would get along. But she knew it was bad when Marnie looked like she was about to cry. That was when it was time to step in. "What did you do Hunter?" she asked when she reached them.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:28 pm

I looked confused. "I gave her an offer to join our pack. Is that bad or something?" I asked. I cut off a dummy's head for extra effect. "I'm waiting for an answer."

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:31 pm

Silver sighed. "No. What did you say before that?" she asked. Honestly, wasn't it obvious? What had he said to make Marnie almost cry? Probably some mean jerky sounding thing. He and Flint seemed to both do that. They put others down.

Marnie Kaleen

My expression hardened, and I wiped my eyes, removing any evidence of crying. I just... I just had wanted to help. But this offer of joining the Careers? I thought about if for a moment. I could have the bow. And the knives. Everything. I clenched my fist. What... what was I thinking? They'd kill me as soon as it seemed fit to. I looked up at Hunter. "I... I uh..."

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:36 pm

"I swear this isn't a scam. Really. I'll let you sleep with weapons if it makes you feel better. You could be one of us. And just remember, it's rare for us to ask someone out of the career districts to be a career. You've got an amazing chance here."

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:38 pm

I decided to join and make my way to the knives. I held one in my hand inspecting it, I tend to come out of no where, I was quick. I smirked and acted casual, Marnie was in a situation. "Marnie's not interested you guys.. When the moment seemed fit you'd slaughter her with no questions asked, since when do non career tributes in a career pack last long? Marnie isn't interested." I say casually and calmly and threw the knife and it landed in the center, I was shocked but didn't show that.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:40 pm

Silver looked at Marnie hopefully. It would be great to have another girl on the team. "Honestly. It isn't a scam. I can convince Flint." Well, Silver hoped she could convince Flint. But she was pretty confident. Silver was usually very good at convincing people. She looked to Marnie again, hoping she would accept the offer.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:43 pm

"I think she can make her own decisions ten." I said to the district 10 girl. "You in?" I asked the district 11 girl. "Ten doesn't know me. I promise we won't Hirt you."

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:46 pm

I looked at Hunter, "She can maker her choices, but when you're putting pressure on her it's difficult, and why make a promise you can't keep four?" I ask looking at him. "We all know there's only going to be one winner, which means twenty three of us have to die." I say.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:51 pm

"Ten, shut up. I know I can keep this promise. And let her talk for held self." I turn back to the district 11 girl. "It's your life, your choice. Not ten's it's okay if you say no but I need to know."

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:52 pm

"Look Marnie. It's okay if you don't want to team up, but we need an answer." Silver said. She didn't want to put pressure on Marnie, but they needed a decision so they could make other alliances if needed. Or maybe they wouldn't make other alliances.

Marnie Kaleen

Siding with the Careers went against everything I believed in. But they wanted me as an ally. My head was reeling and I couldn't think straight. Estrella was really standing up for me. She must have really wanted me as an ally. I looked at Hunter and at Star. They would protect me until it came time for us to split up and kill each other. I cracked my knuckles, and let out a sigh. "You won't... betray me?" I asked Hunter.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:56 pm

I rolled my eyes at Hunter. "Why don't you shut your cocky mouth for once?" I ask and then I cross my arms. "I'm not making her choices, I'm just saying she's not interested because she's in an alliance with me, so calm your self." I say in a snippy way. I knew I could be nasty but he was getting on my last nerve, and I was making a promise to my self and would make my allies promise that if anyone was to kill Hunter, it was me. If Nathan was here I knew I wouldn't be so angry, if he had been by my side I would have been squeezing his hand fighting back against my self but no Nathan wasn't here to stop me.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:00 am

"Silver, can you cover for me? I have to go find someone." I went through the training center searching for Ester. I really needed her right now. I couldn't find her. I came back to to where silver was. "I will cover you until everyone splits." Then I went off to find Ester again. I hadn't talked to her in a while and I really missed her.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:04 am

"Wait, what do you mean cover..ugh, he's gone." Silver threw her hands in the air in disgust. What did he mean cover for him. They weren't in the arena yet, no one was going to attack them. "So..." Silver said awkwardly.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:12 am

"I'm sorry for the way acted towards Hunter." I said more calmed down and now it was just us girls. "I'm Estrella, by the way." I said with a smile on face introducing my self. This district two girl didn't seem too bad.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:17 am

I sighed. I couldn't find Ester. I calmed myself down and walked back. "I'm sorry ten. I just... can't control myself sometimes. Sorry." I closed my eyes and pictured her killing me in the games. Ester was in the distance, just watching me.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:19 am

Silver shrugged. "That's okay. He brought it on himself. I'm Silver, as you may have guessed." Estrella seemed okay. Just not around Hunter. But that was okay. Hunter probably ticked off a lot of people. He could be a bit harsh. But if you were on he right side of him he was okay. Silver looked at Hunter when he returned. "Who were you looking for?" she asked.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:22 am

"Just a girl. She makes me happy." I looked around then spotted Ester. I was about to go over to her, but she looked as if she didn't want to be disturbed. I let her be.

Subject: Re: Fake Talent Fri Apr 06, 2012 12:30 am

I smiled as Silver told me who she was. "Nice name." I say complimenting her and in no way being sarcastic. That was when Hunter came back. "It's alright four, although I have a name." I say smirking.
