The Maiden Girl
Hard Times
My mother was dying and I couldn't help her in any way. The fleets of fire nation ships were everywhere. All I could do is watch as the village goes down. I peered out the doorway. Our warriors didn't stand a chance against the fire nation. Soon the whole village would be water. All water.
I wanted to know who was responsible for all of this. The ships suddenly stopped, and the army started flooding out. They looked peaceful, but who knows. For a minute, all of the soldiers paused for their leader. He was young, around my age. I could almost see us getting married then I thought 'what am I thinking? He's from the fire nation. The complete opposite of the water tribes. There is no way that he was interested in me. Maybe I should play prisoner and see what he is like.' Then my mother took her last breath.
"Katara," she said, "please forgive me and stay safe."
My father came in and saw me in tears. He left as quickly as he came. Being an only child was hard, I mean no one to help you with anything. I started planning my escape. I will go out without a pack and pretend to be lost in the war. Hopefully a solider will see me and take me captive.
A smooth voice outside the door said, "Whoever is in there, come out and serve me."
That's all I needed. I came out as quickly as I could.
He said "I am Prince Zuko and my father sent me to come back with water peasants and I will return with them.
