Griffin was working on the power generater for the lights in the mine. This must have been what? The umptennth time that coal dust has choked the generater to a halt. As he was fixing it something in it backfired and released a large cloud of black smoke. In betwene bouts of coughing and curseing that generater did the generator start to flicker slightly. 'Why wont you work!' To puncuate the statement Griffin punched the machine hard enough to make the machine shake and it finialy started to hum. 'Ungrateful peice of junk.' Under his breath he cursed at the Capital as he wiped his face clear of soot and walked outside.

Shi, on general principle, didn't come to the lower districts often. None of his friends came down here very often, so he didn't either. Still, it was more because of the smoke and hopelessness that hung thick in the air that made him never want to come here.

People were sort of staring at him; understandable, he was a striking figure. Tall and of Asian heritage, he was hardly the normal passerby of District 12.

Not particularly paying attention, he ran right into someone several inches shorter and several pounds lighter than he.

"Whoops..." He muttered, stumbling backwards. "Ouch..."

Griffin was on his way out of the mines when someone ran into him and knocked him to the ground. He shook his head and glared at the man who ran into him. 'Would it kill you to watch where your going baka? Not all of us are the same freak height as you carrer tributes who were too afrade to go up.' He was past the normal ticked and at the bottom of the "P.O.ed" section.

Are you okay?" He asked, a bit concerned. "Frankly, I'm not tall. You're just short. But that's neither here nor there." He continued. "I'm not a Career..." He felt a little put out.

Griffin was realy mad now. He hated when people commented about his height. 'My height is an advantage when Im working on the piece of junk call the generator. Your not even from around here nor any place close. Your most likely from the upper districts or from the capital its self. What is it not enough that we have to send two of us to the chopping block each year to kill and be killed for your entertainment?' He was close to shouting but thankfuly no capital guards were around.

Shi was getting very confused now.

"Why are you yelling at me? I didn't even do anything!" Shi said, shocked. He could easily snap this guy in two, but he was too shocked to do anything.

Shaking his head, he planted two feet on the ground and snapped back, "First of all, even if I WAS from the Upper Districts, which I'm not, that hardly makes it okay for you to yell at me like this just for bumping into you. And second of all, OH MY GOD, SHHH!" He waved his arms a bit spaztically, looking around worriedly for Peacekeepers.
