Chapter 2

After the chariot ride and training, it was time for scores. Derpy Hooves sat eating a muffin on a sofa, waiting for the screen to come on. Doughnut Joe sat on the other couch. The television clicked on.

"Right, right, right! So, we've got our tributes, and it's time to show the scores from training!" said Thunderlane, a capitol pony. His assistant, Flitter, laughed with him. "Let's begin!" Derpy hoped that she had gotten a low score like she tried to. Didn't want to attract attention. Some ponies took a different route, thinking big scores would make them feared. Some were right. Some weren't so lucky.
