My name is Oriana Vega, I was born in the summer, on the day with the longest sun, for the Fire Nation it was a time of good health and light. The sun is where our power comes from, as the moon is with the water tribes. My grandmother told me many years ago "The strongest of the fire nation were born during the summer months, but my dear Oriana, you are special because you were born on the day of the longest sun."
Being told I was special, and strong because of the day I was born, I thought the world at my fingertips. As I grew older I knew of the 100 year war and of what father's country was becoming. But I knew not of how to stop it, when I reached the age of six that was the year I became a fire bender and a month later I became a water bender.
My mother and father fell in love, when she was taken from the South Pole along with other benders. She despised my father of what he was doing, but it took him a few weeks to break, to let the prisoners "escape". My father saw what he was doing was wrong because he way my mother looked at him. After that him and my mother eloped and she took and knew identity, become a vigilante, under the nose of the Fire Lord himself, along my father.
My mother and father knew that I needed to be a fire bender because of the country we were living in, and the risks. My mother accepted this but she still prayed to the moon sprits to make her little girl become water bender. The day I became a fire bender I saw happiness and sadness in mother's eyes, but the day when I also became a water bender, my mother had happy proud eyes. My mother and father was mist aphid that I had both of their bending abilities. At first they thought I was the Avatar. But I was not; I was the first person to ever dual bend.
My parents are loving, carful and very controlling. When I became a bender they started to train me to become a worrier, not a young girl, with friends, and childish things, but to become a rebel against the Fire Nation. I took my training very seriously, but there was never a day that I hadn't wished to be normal, to have friends, to go to school and have a day of rest. But my father said "The war will not rest, and neither shall we."I was trained in the arts; water and fire bending, hand to hand combat, swordsmanship, knife throwing and even in the art of chi blocking. It took me seven years to become a master in fire and water bending, and throughout the process to have the other skills that my parents said I so needed. I waited the day I would get my chance to use my skills that I had been perfecting for over half my life.
I was nine when we had moved from the fire nation to the colonies set up in the earth kingdom. My father was promoted and became head of the outer colonies. Leaving the fire nation had been sad, not because I had good friends there, but because I was leaving all I knew, my home, the city I grew up in and the place I had learned I was a dual bender. How would I have ever known that without leaving, I would never have gotten a chance for adventure?
Thanks for reading! Sorry, it was short but i am just starting, Please review.
