    Jayleen caught up to Jaykob."Allies." They both said in unisen. Then they ran off to their chariots. Jayleen's was covered in fabric and thread, Jaykob's was cover in coal dust. His belt was set afire. He had a pickaxe and was standing next to Sarah Young, who was holding a canary. The chariots rode out and the crowd cheered.

    Brooke hopped out of her chariot and went to her room. She changed out of her dress and got back into her old cloths. Then she went to go to see Jaykob. Brooke knocked on his bedroom door.

    Luke stood up, shutting off the tv, "It's late. Tomorrow's your first day at the training center."


    Kristen nodded. When he left she changed into nightclothes, then went to bed, hiding under the covers.

    occ: I never said that it was morning yet, I'll wait until tomorrow so then everyone's online.


    Kristen stared at the moon outside her window, slowly dozing off.

    Training Center


    The Obstacle Course


    Made of platforms that slowly rise in a zigzag. The only way to get to the next platform is by a rope, net, or you might have to tie your own rope. Beware for swinging clubs, and surprise attacks. Only the nimblest get to the top.


    The Mountain Climb


    Unlike your usual rock climbing wall, this wall looks exactly like a mountain. There is actually snow on it, along with a few coniferous trees. Beware of falling rocks. Only the smartest and most agile usually get to the top.


    The Archery Range


    Yes, I know you all want to be good at archery, but you have to be honest! The archery range has moving dummies, standard targets, and some fake trees here and there for you to climb.
    There are many different types of bows under the compound, recurve, and long bow categories. Only the most experienced archers usually complete it.


    The Knife Throwing Range


    Piled with SOGs, ESEE-3s, switchbacks, pocketknifves, Drop-Points, and Clip-Point knives, the knife throwing range has standstill and moving dummies. (No, you cannot throwing a bunch of knives while spinning/flipping in the air and have them all hit perfectly. That's relatively impossible..)
    Only the coordinated and strongest usually complete this.


    The Edible/Medicinal Plants Station


    Here there are a variety of plants, from flowers, leguemes, pods, berries, leaves, stems, fungi, and seeds. Only the smartest usually complete this.


    The Hand-To-Hand Combat Range


    Here there are sand-bag dummies, simply for being beaten up. Knives, bows, arrows, or any other kind of weapon is forbidden. Only the strongest and tougest complete this.


    The Camouflage Station


    Here you can camouflage yourself to your surroundings. Beware some of the toxic plants, berries, mud, algea, and fungi. Using them will probably kill you in 3-4 hours.


    The Knot-Tieing Station


    Here you may make a variety of knots for shelters, fishing, snares, and much more. Only the most coordinated and smartest usually complete this.


    The Snare Station


    Aaah, what's not better then finding a good-sized fox in your snare? Here you will learn to make many different snares, varying to an animals' size.


    TIMESKIP


    Kristen woke up, changed in a simply pair of pants and a Tshirt, ate, and went to the training center. She waited, knowing that it was forbidden to begin training unless everyone else was there.

    Liam moved over to the plant station. He completed it in about 3 minutes.

    Liam waved at Kristen as he went to the mountain climbing. He dodged the rocks with ease, and made it up in about 4-5 minutes.

    Kristen waved back, climbing up the mountain wall as well. She was cunning, she smart. She was nimble and good at archery and throwing knives, but she wasn't strong. She wasn't good at hand-to-hand combat, or anything like that. She brought some rope up with her, and made a rapal (a harness made from rope) forherself, and one for Liam. She double figure-eight knotted both of them to a tree. She tested it, then drifted back down, "This is much easier."

    Brooke finished the mountain climb and moved on to archery range which she was excited about.

    Jaykob had already changed and gotten into the Training Room. He was at the knife throwing range, along with Jayleen."What are the odds?" She was saying.He nodded.

    Brooke picked up a bow and arrow and climbed the tree and then aimed at the moving dummy. " I can do this. " Brooke breathed in and then let her arrow go. " YES! " Brooke yelled to herself. The arrow went straight threw where the tributes heart would have been.

    Kristen went to the archery range, choosing a 12 Mustang Take Down Recurve Bow. She'd rather have a traditional bow then modern, they suited her best. She chose the light-tip 12.36 arrows. She slung the quiver around her shoulder and took out an arrow. She notched the knock into the serving, and drew back. She rested the tip between the arrow shelf and arrow rest. She cocked her elbow, pulled back to her jaw, and spread her feet about 1.6 ft. apart. Keeping both eyes open, she aimed, and fired. It hit in the sight of the red center. It was impossible to actually get the exact center. A way to tell that you have a healthy aim was if the arrows all hit in a ratio of a plate. She shot a few more, they all hit near the same spot of the first one.
