Long ago, these four elemental nations lived together in harmony. Then, it all changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, the master of all four elements, could stop them. Then, the day the world needed him most, he vanished.
I ran the story I read over a thousand times in my head as I walked to the Water Tribe Library to return a book on the legend of the Avatar I borrowed. Suddenly, as I walked near my favorite lake (to skate on), I tripped on a piece of ice sticking out of the ground. When my left hand hit the ground, my waterbending (the skills of which I still hadn't mastered) cracked the lake into two pieces, as a ice sphere rose out.
"Whoa." I said, amazed. I ran out onto the ice and stood in front of the sphere. Suddenly CRACK! the ice sphere cracked open, and I saw a shape inside.
the shape of a teenage girl!
The girl wobbled a little, then fell off the edge of the opening in the ice. I had caught her just before she hit the ice that was the frozen lake. As I caught her, she stirred a little. I put her down, then she fully woke up.
