Darn, I got most of the careers to write about. So I will shorten the pov's :l.

Carolyn

I walk in the training room, and give a confident smirk. I do what every career should do, show off my combat skills. I imediately start hacking away at dummies with my sword, then thrusting and going through the motions of blocking and slashing. I behead a dummy, then walk out smirking.

Copper

I walk in, looking calm. I go over to the trainer with hand to hand combat, and challenge him. The fight starts, and I rush in with a lot of blows. He swings, and I duck and kick his shin, and then I uppercut him. He falls to the floor, and I start kicking him over and over until the gamemaker's tell me that's enough.

Thalia

I grab a bow, and show off I am deadly from a range and in melee combat. I first shoot dummy's in fatal spots 4 out of 5 times, and when I run out of arrows, I let out a warcry and charge forward with a sword. I aggressively slash the dummies into, and then pounce on them and start stabbing them over and over, and then I leave, with confidence.

Troy

I had to prove I was the leader of the careers and that Thalia wasn't. I was going to show off my strength, combat, and smarts. I walk in, and pick up the heaviest weight in the room, and chuck it into a rack of throwing knives. I then grab a mace and crush the dummy's in single blows. They think I'm done, but I go to the edible plants station, and pass with a score of 97%. I leave, hoping I got a higher score than Thalia.

Zoey

I know what to do. First, I go to the climbing station, and climb to the top, then climb down in an equally fast time. I grab throwing axes, and throw them at my targets, hitting a bullseye. I grab a battle ax and start to chop dummies in half, then I end it with an ax into the floor.

Cynder

I had to prove that Burgundy tought be well. I decide to focus on throwing knives, which I do pretty good with. I prove to them that I have more weapon knowledge, as I grab a sword. The hilt feels familiar, and I know exactly what to do. With an adrelaline rush, I start stabbing and slashing. When I slow down, I see a bloody mess. Oops. I killed one of the trainers. I walk off, with a sheepish look on my face.

Elias

"District 9 does bad eh?" I say to the boy from 13 who's taunting me. They call my name before he can insult my district any longer. I walk in, furious. I grab a huge battle ax. The gamemakers look surprised that a 14 year old can wield such a hefty weapon but I swing the large thing. Decapitating dummies, cutting them in half. I put the dummy's limbs in my pockets, and then throw them at the gamemakers, saying "Have some candy" in a mocking voice.

Rory

Unlike the other tributes, peacekeepers escort me in their, and say "Don't eat anyone.". I scoff, and walk in. They don't know a thing. The three walk me in, and I pick up an ax. I get in the motion like I'm going to hit a dummy with it, but I turn and chop a peacekeeper's chest. The others reach for tazers, but I am faster, as I cut the second peacekeeper's leg off. The third one tries to taze me, but I slide back and cut him in half. The two remaining peacekeepers lie their bleeding, and I rip their throats out with my teeth. I jump up trying to get to the gamemakers, but something pierces my side. I see it as a tranquilizer dart, and I pass out.

Trenton

I know what to do. I quickly run the guantlets, and then go to the knot tying station. I tie a large noose, and hang a dummy up on it. I run over to the camouflage station, and camouflage myself. I finish it by throwing a weight into a dummy, crushing it. Before I leave, I throw a sword at the gamemaker's booth.
