Six was struggling. The rest of the first aid station made so much sense to him. He was doing well with every other aspect. Except this one. The needle and thread. He just couldn't seem to get it right. The issue was with his technique. He head the thread hooked up to the needle wrong. He was holding the needle wrong. And he was even using the needle wrong. Basically anything he could do wrong, was wrong. This worried him quite a bit. He's seen past Hunger Games. He knew how important first aid, including a needle and thread, could be. He felt like just dropping the needle and giving up. But he couldn't, that would be a stupid idea. Especially considering first aid would probably be one of his biggest strengths.
Six wasn't a big guy for his age. He was short and scrawny. A lot of the guys who got reaped were older than him or at least bigger than him. He knew that certain training stations, such as strength, wouldn't be a big help for him. But this one would. He didn't want to kill a bunch of people. Maybe that's what some of the tributes wanted to do. They wanted to kill people and violently. The idea of killing made him feel sick to his stomach. It made him feel disgusting. It reminded him that he was a sinner. Every one of them would be a sinner. Because even if someone was the first to die, they were ready to kill. That in itself in unforgivable in Six's mind.
Then he looked over at the guy next to him. He tried to remember his reaping video, but they all seemed to blur together. One or two stood out to him of course. The one from district four with the boy who couldn't hold back his tears, the one from district one considering they both had the same last name, and the one from district six with all of the weird glitches in it. There were other reapings that stood out too, but those were the main ones. Regardless, the guy was doing way better than Six. Honestly, it seemed like he was doing better than anyone else there. He wanted to ask for help, he did. But he felt like that might be a sign of weakness. He already felt and looked weak, he didn't want to confirm everyone's suspicions. Honestly half the people there probably just saw him as easy prey. His eyes said what his voice couldn't as he looked at Thread. Please help me. I don't get it. Help.
