The Girl From Five

My name is Lyra Stone. My district picked me to participate in the First Quarter Quell. Maybe they want me dead? Lets prove them wrong, shall we?

The Last Breath || Oneshot

"I'm sorry, you don't deserve to suffer either." She spoke. The knife in my shoulder was ripped out and replaced into my throat. My screams were barely heard, I tried to gasp for air--it was no use. The knife was repeatedly stabbed into my esophagus. It wasn't until the fifth painful stab when i shared my last breath with the world.

My eyes fluttered with a close, my body went limp. I was dead. I felt my eyes open once more with a gasp of breath, I looked over to see my body lay under the tree, my clothes stained with my own crimson blood. A hand held my mouth, i was looking at the limp body that once was mine. A soft tear escaped my eyes, I was a spirit now. I watched Talon shove Cashmere into the tree, yelling into her face. I tried to place my hands onto Talon, to pull him away--but it was no use, my hand wasn't able to contact his live body.

My screams were not heard--yet again. I still didn't want the poor girl to suffer. But Talon wanted her to, I watched her cough for air, her face buried in the sand. She was gasping for breath as i was. She was going to share the same fate as me, but it wasn't until Talon was stabbed into the stomach when i knew whom won the fight. The crimson blood stained his shirt, he was slowly dying--another tear left my eye. She managed to protect herself, and I was glad. I chose to try and attack her for injuring my partner, I knew i shouldn't have.

I watched Talon have his last breath, I watched his body fall to the ground, I heard his cannon. His eyes remained open, his body was empty. He was gone, just like me. I watched Talon's soul fly from his own body. My left hand held onto his right, "Come on Talon, it's time to go to our new home. It will be better than Five and the Capitol altogether." I tugged on his hand pulling him into the bright light that shown. Small tears escaped my eyes--with a last look at my body--i tugged on Talon once more. And together, we walked into the light.

Panem wasn't a place for me, I had no where to fit in. Maybe the other world would be better for Talon and I. And maybe, just maybe, I will no longer be an Outsider.

Lyra Stone's Interview Outfit

[lyra-from-five-blog]

The Nine of it All. || Oneshot.

Today we were going to see the results of the Private Training. Everyone questioned what i did, but i want i did--made me into something i never thought i would be. But I had to embrace what had happen in that room with the Gamemakers and Sponsors. I really hoped i impressed them all, i hoped for a bigger number than six. Talon and I sat on the sofa, staring at the screen--waiting for the Capitol seal to show.

Dano sat in the love seat; Lealia sat on the arm rest, with her arm around Dano. Our Prep Team was here as well. They all waited to congratulate us on our private training, and i hoped i didn't fail them. The Capitol seal showed, and the Prep Team begins to clap. The first pair of tributes begin to show, they all seemed a blur because i only worried on what number i have received. Some of the training scores stuck out, and i managed to keep track. Miriam received a 10 and Gabe got a 9. The girl and boy from Three got a 9 and a 12. Abigail got a 7 and her partner got a 9.

My district was next, the anticipation began to build, my hands began to shake, my heart beating faster and faster. My face shows. Zenovia says "District Five's female tribute impressed the Gamemakers and she has received a 9." The small party inside the suite begins to cheer. A huge smile appears on my face, my cheeks flushed red.

I have received a 9!! Did i really impress them with what i did? Was it what i said or was it the actions i committed? I am hugged by my stylists then the rest of my team, then by Dano and followed by Laelia. I look on the screen and Zenovia is about to announce Talon's score. "District Five's male tribute impressed the Gamemakers and he has received a 7." Once again the small crowd begins to cheer, I wrap my arms around his neck-hugging him tightly.

"Good job Talon!" I scream with the others. I could easily see his cheeks turn a bright shade of pink. We begin to quiet down and continue to watch the other scores. Colton received an 11. Lumber got a small 6, which seemed to surprise me a little. He was all talk, but apparently he couldn't preform what he spoke. The boy from Nine got an 8 and i clapped, Alannah received a 7 and i clapped for her as well. The girl from Twelve got an impressive score with an 8. After the training scores were all announced. we were greeted with cake that the Avoxes brought out.

We all partied, they were proud of our scores--and i was too. I proved myself to the Gamemakers and the Sponsors. Tomorrow was another big day, we were going to be interviewed by the one and only-- Zenovia. I waved everyone good night after we finished the cake and i went to my bedroom. The smile stayed on my face until i fell asleep.

District Five

Lyra Stone- 9

Talon Watt- 7

Day Four of Training

Teen Idle - Miriam Vesro-Buchanan

I ran into the girl from One at the tracking station, and she was really nice. We talked about our districts, and what we did. She told me she was married, and I thought that was cute. We also successfully tracked down a fox, but it quickly ran away. We followed another trail, but it turned out to be the other tribute's footprints. Overall, Miriam seems to be a nice person, and i wouldn't mind having another conversation with her. This time not in a fake forest.

Escape - Talon Watt

I needed to escape from the madness in the training room, so i decided to go back to my suite. Instead, i took a detour with Talon and we went to the rooftop. Together, we looked at the sunset, and we had another deep talk. I settled some rules for him--telling him to stop breaking rules.

Julie-O - Gabriel Navens Eames

Gabe and I created a berry soup together at the cooking station. We seemed to have great teamwork, which was nice. We talked about our district lives and our 'friends'. I asked if he wanted to take some soup for his special friend and he gladly denied. Maybe later tonight we can try our creation--but i highly doubt we will.

"Friends are as good as any significant other." I look over at the freezer. “Possibly. If only they had a faster freezer. Maybe we could come back later and try it. Time is wasting away now." My voice lowers to a whisper. The ugly truth.

[lyra-from-five-blog]

"Yes, but i choose not to get attached to anyone, it will be easier in the arena if i don't have any attachments. And yes, maybe we can meet later today and try it together." I smile as i stand up. "It was a pleasure to have a talk with you, Gabe. I wish you luck with your friend."

I began to walk away, glancing over to the freezer. I didn't worry if i ever would try the soup with Gabe, maybe he could eat it with his friend. I walked over to a different station, but one that was so familiar to me.

The Library.

I rolled my eyes and chuckled.

"We are friends as well as more. Is there someone special for you Lyra?"

I wave no to the soup. It would be nice but no.

[lyra-from-five-blog]

It was nice to tease someone. I really haven't done anything like this in Five.

I laugh, "No only friends, sadly none of them are special in that way."

I shrugged my shoulders, "I wonder how the soup will taste? Do you think it will be good?"

"Of course! Artificial sunsets are the best!...yeah I'm getting tired of being up here anyways, to the suite it is!" I say with my idex finger pointing upward. And with that we walk into the elevator and press the illuminated 5. We shoot down and within seconds the doors open and I see the spacious loft. The windows still set on the beach theme background. It always seemed so peaceful to me, I never bothered to change it.

So much is happening so fast, it's hitting me all at once. Soon private training, then interviews, then.. The Games.. I curl up on the over sized couch with a wool blanket and sink quietly deep into my thoughts.

[lyra-from-five-blog]

Once we enter our suite i let Talon curl on the couch like a little kitten. The thought of cats reminded me of my own cat and how i missed her so much. I walk over to Talon, "I'm going to my room, i need to sleep."

I ruffle his hair once more, and i walk over to the stairs. My bed was so comfortable, it was easy to fall asleep. The thought of private training, crossed my mind. "Ughh," I said to myself.

I tried to not fall asleep, and tried to think of possible things to do to impress the gamemakers.
