ooc- time skip?
I was up on the rooftop again, hugging my knees and watching as the sun rose into the sky, turning to clouds a goldish pink color. My cheeks were tear stained, but I had cried all my tears, and my eyes were dry now.

He stepped out onto the roof, trying to be comforting. She was so young to be in the Games. "You ready for today's training?" he asked.

"Not really, but I suppose I have to be." I said quietly, not taking my eyes off of the rising sun. "It's not like I really have a choice. You know, it's really strange, the nightmares I have at night, are never as bad as the terror of waking up and realizing where exactly I am. There's always that one moment in your nightmares, where you think you'll just wake up in bed back at home, and you'll be safe." I said, finally turning to look at him. "You feel like everything will be fine, but then the truth hits you as soon as you open your eyes, and that pain is worse than the terror of the dream." God, I didn't even know what I was saying, it all just flooded out of me. I have to admit it sounded like I had the mind of someone centuries old.

He nodded, understanding what she meant. "I don't care what happens in the arena. Whether I live or die, I want to know that it's still me. I've seen the other tributes. The ones that win. They change in that arena, and you can't recognize themwhen they come out. I just don't want to change in the Games." He looked up at the rising sun, and sighed.

"You can't give up Colt, I don't want to have to, but I am relying on you in there. You're the only one I can trust." I murmured, turning my gaze back to the sun. "You told me before, You can't stop fighting." I said. If he gave up I wouldn't be able to survive at all, "Colt, I'm twelve years old, I can't do this by myself, if you give up, you're giving up on me too." I said, looking down at my nails.

"Your right." he said, realizing he would have to help her in the Games. "I guess as the oldest of us I have to help you. In the Games, you need as much help as you can get."

"Thanks", I said, really meaning it. "Are you ready for training?" I asked, pulling a bright blue flower from it's stem out of a pot to my right, inspecting the petals.

"I hope so." he said, looking up at the sky. "You?" He took a deep breathe, and tried to relax himself.
OOC: Sorry low muse.

"I guess so, I think I'll try survival skills first, that's probably the most important of training." I said, hugging my knees tighter to my chest. "I really don't want to think about what's going to happen as soon as we enter that arena." I murmured.

"I think I'll try my luck in training with either a bow of spear for hunting. If I don't get killed by the careers, I'll be the most troubled by the lack of food I can salvage." He opened the door again. "Coming?"
OOC: Sorry low muse.

"Yeah," I said getting to my feet, and climbing back down from the open hatch and back into the hallway of the building. I stood beside the elevator, waiting for Colt.

He followed suite, standing beside her as they wait for the elevator to come. The metal doors finally slid open, and he stepped inside. He wait for her before he pressing the button to go back down.

I stepped in next to him, fiddling with my thumbs nervously. The elevator soon reached the first floor, the training hall. The doors slid open and I stepped inside. I looked around. There were so many stations. I turned around to look at Colt. "Are you ready?" I mouthed back to him.
