Fear
Hi everyone, this is my first Fanfic that I'm actually posting online. It's a little bit longer then a drabble but not quite a short story. Take some time to read it and review if you have time. Thank you!

The nightmare replays, like a repeated song on a radio, every single night. All the Chi-Blockers are there, they paralyze me, Amon comes out, and his hand reaches out to take my bending. It's the same thing each night. I wake up sweating, scared, and sometimes in tears. Is this what fear is? No. I have never been scared in my life.
Tenzin says he will be there to talk whenever I need it. He says that I am scared and it's alright. It's a normal emotion. The whole city is scared. I don't answer. When have I ever been scared? His words aren't accurate. I am strong. I am the Avatar. There is no fear in me. There never has been and there never will be.
The raid on the Chi-Blockers went well. We succeeded. The mission was accomplished. If everything is going so well then why am I shaking? Why do I feel lightheaded? My stomach is turning and my pulse is pounding, and not in a good way. I have never felt this way after a fight before. Usually I am excited and ready for more.
I have challenged Amon to a duel. I know I am not ready. He will win. Am I brave or stupid? I will not be seen as a coward. I challenged him so that I wouldn't look weak. I cannot back out and now I will pay the price.
He isn't going to come. I nearly sigh with relief. I stand up to head out. Then they are there. The Chi-Blockers. I am surrounded and I don't last a minute against all of them. It's an ambush and I finally admit it as Amon comes up to me. I am scared.
