" Another rule. Never let your guard down when fighting, and never get distracted. That could be a grave mistake and give your opponent the opportunity he or she needs to take you down." Says Four. He yelled it out to everyone.

" It can be pretty easy at times to learn and study the way your opponent fights and the stance they use, so always try to change the way you do it. Be unpredictable." Says Eric.

We nod in understanding. They have already shown us the proper fighting stance.

Tris, Uriah and Four were showing the others the right way to punch and how to block properly. Eric was also showing Gally and I the same thing.

We already all had muscles in are arms, legs and body from all we do at our own places before all this happened.

You would think that I had died from what had happened at the end of the first Hunger Games. I had been attacked by those mutts. I remember after they left I was nothing but raw meat. I think I may have begged for Katniss to kill me. She did shoot a arrow, but the sound she heard was is sinking into my shoulder. She never misses, but I had moved at the last second.

The capital got me and healed me once they realized I was still alive. I have no idea how, but they did. They then we're going to keep me there and have me work for Snow, but I escaped one night and left to District 2, where my family hid me from them, but no one came looking for me and I was grateful for that.

Then what brought me here to this arena were guys dressed in these white jump suits with the word W. I. C. K. E. D. On the back. They knocked me out and I woke up somewhere in the maze with my sword in my hand. I soon found out I was in the arena again and knew I would have to fight for my life, and soon I bumped into Four, I could tell when Katniss saw me, she was shocked I was alive, but thankfully she didn't ask questions, and now here we are. Training to fight against bloodthirsty cranks.

Everything's been crazy lately. " Ok Gally, you will throw the first punch at Cato and he will try blocking, then after I say you will do it the other way around." Instructed Eric.

We nodded and got ready. Gally then threw a punch the exact way we were shown, and I managed to block it the exact way we were shown.

Eric just observed. We kept at it for a while, the others were doing the same. It got a bit boring after a bit so Eric had us switch and now Gally was blocking my punches.

After a bit of that we stopped. They showed us a lot of moves to use when fight people who just plain old charge you.

" Now, just plain old showing you this will do no good unless you test it yourself on someone." Says Four.

" Then how do we test it on someone?" Says Newt.

" Hand to hand combat. You will go against the person your teamed up with. You will both test it out on each other, but no face hit. We don't need a busted up face." Says Four.

We nod and get ready. " Gally, you will charge Cato first and he will try it, then the other way around." Says Eric.

We nod. When Eric said start Gally charged me. Right before he got to me, I side stepped and rushed forward, hitting his feet with my right foot, tripping him. His feet left the ground and he flipped, landing flat on his back. He cried out, but was smiling. I did it the exact way we were shown.

Everyone was doing the same. Now it was Gally's turn. I charged him and he did the same thing I did. Pain flared through my back when I hit the ground, but I cried out and smiled as well.

We trained for a few more hours before we sat down for a break. We were all very tired.

" Soon we will continue, but for now let's rest." Says Four. And that's exactly what we did. Rest.
