Viola's POV
~~~~~~~~
The lights are blinding me as my high heels click against the stage. The crowd screams in awe and excitement. I smile at them, blowing kisses as I take a seat by Cesar. He gives me a cheesy smile, That I imitate, making the crowd laugh. "Viola!" "Cesar!" he kisses me on the cheek. "How long it's been!" "Yes Cesar, Its been such a long time." I smile."how have you been!" "Just amazing!w "Yourself?" "Oh Just fine!" "But now, let's talk about your brother." My mind suddenly converts from happy and amused, to devastated. "Rumor has is that he has been confirmed ill." I think about what to say. "Yes, He's sick in hospital." "But we have put money towards his surgery."
He grabs my hand and plants a kiss on it. "Well I wish you the very best of luck My dear." It's quiet. Too quiet. But now, I want to talk about about your training scores!" "I know you weren't told your score, But this time we're doing it a little bit different!" "We have decided to announce it Now!" "How does that sound?" "It sounds great ceasar." I smile. Suddenly I hear the crowd gasp. "A Twelve!" Cesar shouts. My hands Fly up to my mouth in shock. I really am thrilled, but I'm doing mostly everything for the cameras. "Ladies And Getlemen!" "Viola Ravin!" the crowd screams

I step backstage in pain, realizing my ankle had been cut by the sharp edge of the stairs. "Ouch" I look up to see Finnick wincing. "Hey you!"he calls to a nearby staff member. "call for a first aid kit will you?" He runs off and comes back with a red bag with a cross on it. "Finnick!" "Huh?" he says, not even looking up from my ankle. "Your on!" "Crap!" he yells. I laugh shaking my head. I fix the mess of bandages on my ankle and walk over to Katniss and Peeta, Receiving dirty looks from a few other tributes. The most gruesome from Dawn. She's the first that has to go in the arena. "Viola?" says peeta. "Your leg!" "Oh yeah it's fine." I laugh, feeling some warm blood run down my cut. "Ew." I say making them chuckle. "I'll be right back I say, grabbing the first aid kit and moving towards the bathroom. I sit on the counter and grab a towel. Fancy. I run it under warm water and squeeze it out on my ankle. I wince because is stings like fire. Maybe cold water will be better next time. I notice small TV's in the corners of the bathroom.Finnick is talking about how things work in district 4. I soon see that the cut wasn't so bad in the first place. With my knife throwing, I've learned some cuts just bleed alot. I walk out of the bathroom. "How long. Was I gone?" "Just a few minutes." answers katniss. "thanks." I see Finnick walking towards us. "How'd I do?!" he asks excitedly. I didn't really see the interview,but...
"A 12!" He says picking me up and twirling me around."Finnick!" I giggle. "But I have to say, Ummm." "Ummm what?" "I didn't see your interview." I say laughing my butt off. He huffs. "Well I didn't really see yours either." "Fine..." I scowl. "I look over and see Katniss and Peeta grinning. "You guys are hilarious!" they say. Finnick and I look at each other and nod. "I guess." We say in unison.
