"lain... where are you?" My voice saunters out as the ever present feeling of eyes creep upon my person. Being here exposed while all the rest of the tributes are happily going about their business is a little off setting. The worst thoughts that are going across my mind is that someone has taken it upon themselves to show lain a few things about being bait or that he got lost somewhere or maybe he even isn't up to showing up. Maybe our friendly spat over the grapes was wrong on my part, but I could have sworn that we had became something more than possible blood spillage for each other?
My thoughts run out of control. As I once again scan the training center, I'm forced to come to terms that our friendship was only a one time, one day deal over a meager amount of grapes and nothing more. If only it was. If only it could have been something more then right now, as I lay my hand on the sharpest of sharp throwing knife, as his absence is giving me the most horrid of feelings. The other two though, Hettie and Insanis, I am more than curious now if they have something to do with his disappearance.
I sigh.
My delicate fingers pick up a weapon instead of my baby sister and the cold metal is very uncomfortable to deal with. I bring it up to my eyes, examining the blade and pretending to press the blade against my forhead, testing the atmostphere. Testing the sharp metal and testing my own courage. Pain will come soon, and that I'm sure of. Perhaps, all it'll take is a little conditioning to not feel the sting of a blade once inside the arena? Inside that death trap...
Another sigh.
"Fine. Alone it I'll go." Having hope in this type of place is what makes you a tribute and I'm not going to let any of these so called meat sticks and grinders have a peice of my insecurities. I put my chin up and then hold that knife with the tightest grip that I can and aim at the dummy closest to me. Training for a kill. Training to go home is what this is all about, right? Everyone is watching me. Everyone is judging me. The sooner they see that I am participating in their game, the sooner their eyes will fall from me. Blending in...
"HA!" The knife holds all my fears. It is chained to the thoughts that I will fail and that people will be my undoing. However, his face suddenly appears on the dummy just as it pierces it's arm, deep into the muscle.
"No... lain"
