Chapter 28. Thomas's POV.
" No Minho, we can't do that." I say.
Minho crosses his arms and glares at me in annoyance. " Why not?!"
" Because, they'll expect us to charge them. We need to somehow sneak up on them, and try not to be seen." I say.
He just huffs and glares at all of us. Then Cato speaks up. " What if we went in teams of two. Four teams surround the camp of the cranks, north, south, east and west. We make as much noise as possible and get all the cranks out of the camp, knowing the leader he will stay there with a few guards and the last two teams will ambush him and kill him once and for all." Says Cato.
Everyone looked at each other with a look of utter shock. Katniss was the one to speak up when they looked back at him. " Cato, that's a amazing plan. I like it." Says Katniss. Everyone agreed.
" Thanks." Says Cato. He was grinning widely.
" How did you learn to make a plan like that?" Says Tris.
" When your in the Hunger Games, fighting for your life, it always help to train for thing like that." Says Cato.
Everyone nodded. They started coming up with who would be one which team. " Ok, so Cato will be with Gally, I will be with Peeta, Tris with Four, Eric with Uriah, Minho will be with Thomas, and lastly Gale will be with Newt. Everyone understand?" Says Katniss.
Everyone nods in understanding. Everyone was weaponless. When they had been capture by the cranks all their weapons had been taken. " Wait. How are we going to fight against them if we don't have weapons?" I ask.
Four stands up. " With our fists of course." He says.
" We don't know how to fight like you guys do." I say.
Tris, Eric, and Uriah stood up. " You happen to be talking to four highly trained Dauntless members who know how to fight and have fought. We can teach you everything you need to know." Says Four.
" Really? You guys would teach us how to fight like you guys do?" Says Gale.
" You guys already have the basics down, and what we're going to do is teach you more advanced stuff, such as blocking, the proper stance used when fighting, and hand to hand combat." Says Eric.
" Oh and let's not forget the proper way to hold a gun in case we come across one." Says Four. Eric nodded.
" Your two talk as if you've taught people before." Says Newt.
They smiled. " We actually are instructors. It's our job to teach people how to fight and use weapons, so we know what we're talking about." Says Four. We all nodded.
They nod. " Now, we will train you in teams of two. Gally will train with Cato, Katniss will train with Newt, Gale will train with Thomas, and Peeta will train with Minho. Are we clear on that?!" Says Four.
Everyone nods and stand up. " Eric, pick which group you want to train." Says Four.
Eric smirked. " It's almost like we're in Dauntless on our way to play capture the flag again." Says Eric.
Four rolled his eyes and smiled, but said nothing. Eric then looked at the groups. " Ok, I pick Gally and Cato."
" Uriah, your pick." Says Four.
" Ok, I choose Newt ad Katniss." Says Uriah.
" Ok Tris, now you." Says Four.
" Thomas and Gale." She says.
" Which mean I am left with Minho and Peeta." Says Four.
We all nod. Before we know it Four and Eric have us hiding behind rocks, leaning over them, each holding a stick that is shaped as a gun.
We're being taught how to properly hold a gun and aim it. It felt really stupid to be aiming a stick at a target they made and pretend to shot it, but Four and Eric claim it will help a lot. They watch as we do it, and given the position the made up gun is in, they are able to tell exactly where the bullet would hit.
Soon enough after what felt like countless hours of doing this, from what he says, we all can hit the center of the target with every shot. " Ok, I know that may have made you feel stupid, but it was very necessary, and now that we've gotten the boring part done, it's time for fight training. Everybody to their teacher and get ready, by the time you guys get to sleep tonight your every muscles will be screaming for relief. Now let's get started." Says Four smirking.
We all nod a bit nervous, we then go to our teacher, and Four was right. This is where the real fun begins. It is time to start our fight training.
