Clove Chapter 7

Brutus Walks into the room with a smile. He is huge! Twice the size of Cato. "Hello and congratulations!" he says as he sits down at the other end of the table. I look over at Cato and he looks just like me. Eyes wide and a slight smile. We are trying to look presentable but after eating all we did, it's hard. "hello, my name is-" "Cato!" Brutus finished Cato's sentence. That made Cato angry but he held it in. "and your clove?" he finishes. "yes." I say in the sweetest voice I can. "so, before we get to the Capitol I want to learn some of your skills." he says. Skills. I am good with knifes and I am pretty fast. But I'm a girl I will be amazed if he believes me. "a sward, spear and I can run." Cato blurts out right as I was about to talk. "very nice Cato. And you sweetheart?" "knifes and I can run." I say in the proudest voice I can. "your just a girl! You can't through knifes!" what Brutus says makes me mad. I pick up the steak knife off the table and through it at the wall. It makes it write in the spot I wanted it to. A dark brown knot in the wooden wall. "you can through. And you have a temper. " says Brutus. "that's nice."
