Once again I find myself wondering if my brother will ever cease to exist. Occasionally I get a glimpse of that useless excuse for a life, but always I tend to avoid his direction. I look at other people's families and see a close knit group, but I laugh to myself at the fools. Why bother getting close to someone when they're destined to die in the games. The so called lucky ones who make it past eighteen are practically devoted to the Capitol. I've given up my brother for dead. He should see that as well. The little scrawny twig will be fodder in the bloodbath. If I can see my brother is meant to die why not my parents? Ugh I will never understand motherly love. I'm better off teaching myself the essentials of life. Being around my family when that rare occasion happens tends to make me feel like I'm crumbling into dust.
Another grueling day of training has come to an end. Normally I fall asleep in this place, but I long for sleeping in a bed. I haven't even realized how out of breathe I am. Thinking about my brother breathing sends me into a fury almost immediately most times. I'm not so surprised that my knuckles are bleeding slightly from the pressure I've put on them. I pack up my stuff careful not to injure my hands further. If I'm to head home without passing out in the streets now is the time to leave. With one hand I open the door to some fresh air. It almost feels worth it to take a break once in a while. The joy my body screams when I don't push it feels oddly soothing to me. I take off toward my domain. I refuse to call any place home that associates me with my family no matter who it is. What I do see in the street surprises me. Someone else must be heading home as well.
"Hey there. Why walk alone at dark? There could be killers on the loose." With it being near pitch black the woman probably didn't catch my smirk. I'm not foolish enough to kill someone in cold blood not yet anyway. Being out here alone has piqued my interest though. I don't remember seeing her training so her being out here is a mystery. Hopefully she isn't too afraid of me so that I may have some fun with her. It would be nice to scare someone into thinking they will die. If she is stupid enough to venture alone in the dark well who am I to question such idiocy.
