For my family, of course. She says simply, though her heart pounds at the thought of her little sister feeding their family, and her little brother starving without her. Riches are nothing to me. It may bring us food, but I will still work. I love my district.
Though that was a lie, in a way. She hates how her district killed her father so mercilessly, how it starves her family every day, killing off people one by one. But maybe that is the Capitol's fault. She has heard that this shining city has endless food, endless money, and never stops to get what they want. I don't want to become like that! She thinks, looking back to the boy.
He has something in his eyes, a thought it may be. He seems to admire her, like there is something about her that he likes. Is it her fire? Her will to live? Though she doesn't look forward to killing, it won't make a difference in the arena. They'll all die, someday, whether it be age or sickness, or the merciless heart of another tribute, they will all die. One way or another.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________Kody looks at the girl, a question in his eyes. He composes himself, and swallows, trying to answer her. Uh, no, just... Looking. I'd like some sword fighting. He adds, looking past the girl to various stations before realizing how stupid he is. This could be an ally! She looks strong, smart, somebody who knows how to stay alive. She could be the brains, he the brawn.
You have an ally? He blurts out, looking around, eyes curious. He'd approach this lightly, not wanting to stun the girl with questions - what she can do, what she can't do, how fast she can run and how strongly she can swim. There are so many questions to be asked, and judging by her looks, she's from District One or Two. She'll be smart and crafty, not to mention have many sponsors, but most of all, she needs to know how to kill.

My eyes widened, thinking, Should I tell him? Finally, I shrugged. "Maybe, you?" I tuck a piece of my brown, curly hair behind my cold ears.

I nod, looking down at the train cart's floor, wanting her as my ally. But, of course, I dont know what she has, yet, so Ill wait. I looked back up at her, and ask blankly, "So, how come we are from the same district, but I've only seen you now?"
