Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN the Nickelodeon show, Avatar, the Last Airbender and the rest of its characters espcially Aang, Katara, Sokka, Prince Zuko, Uncle Iroh, Momo and Appa. The cast may sound and come to a point where they are OOC so please bear with that.
Hi it's Flamable and I'm back with a new fic. Sorry it's not X-men Evolution. I've recently been hooked with the tv show Avatar, the Last Airbender and this is my first ATLA fic so please no flames. This fic concentrates and talks about my OC character I had made up and wish the show had (ok I'm dreaming) This fic will be focusing on my character's point of view like a personal outlook of what she's thinking or explaining things without speaking it out for herself.
This may contain some wrong grammar, spellings and other stuff that you'd feel uncomfortable with and I'm only a semi-literate writer so I like to mess around with words and sentences (please bear with that...again)
The point is I hope you have fun reading this and giving me some honest feedback. Thanks...and you enjoy the ride. Make sure both arms, legs, paws, tails, heads are in the vehicle at all times...yeah I know I know its cheesy..enjoy peeps! I love you all!

Located on the mountainous regions outside the borders of the Earth Kingdom are the luscious green forests where rest and peace is found and no sign of Fire Nation soldiers taking possession of the place...yet.
A young girl about the age of twelve sat down near the crystal clear lake and looked at her reflection. The water revealed that she had inherited bloody red hair with sharp bangs flowing from both sides and the rest was knotted in pigtails. Her eyes were sparkling bright red and seemed to have fitted with her unique complexion. Her attire was a black silk top and bottoms together with a fiery red sleeveless "dubon" with a slit on one side that she used on top of the silk outfit and wore flat shoes. Her bangs hid a slightly long scar that was running down from her forehead to her right cheek. She had odd features yet it suited her and looked delightful with that charming smile although the smile didn't last too long.
It was at the hour of dusk and she clearly depressed and bewildered. The calm wind blew the bangs away and revealed the awful scar that brought her shame to herself and her kind. All day, she had been trying to ignore these awful thoughts and what she had been through. Tears formed in her piercing red eyes with a dreaded look of guilt and deception. What in the world was troubling her? You could tell that chaos was floating in her head.
POV: I've realized that a week had passed since...since...my life had really changed. I mean why bother and recall the past that keeps haunting you and regret the biggest calling in life! Did I make the right choice and was it for my own good? I can't seem to keep this off me! I don't want to go through this is all over again but I'm glad it's done so I can't do anything about it...sadly I can't. To be honest, I'm glad I took this path instead of vice versa otherwise things would be complicated and totally wrong. Who am I? My name is...
"Kisaki!" a masculine voice interrupted her.
"What?" she snapped out of it and got back to reality.
"Time for dinner!" the voice rang in her head.
POV: Who cares, I'm not hungry...well I usually am but maybe I'll pass this time.
"Your dinner is getting cold!" Katara caught her attention this time. She turned back and returned the water bender with a smile that lightened up her face.
POV: Well, well if it isn't our mother hen of the group. Hey I think it does suit her. I think she's nice and pretty and not to mention she makes an awesome older sister to hang out with. I mean were the only two girls so we like to hang and talk about and guys and...whoops! Let's change the topic. I've figured that Katara is the only water bender in the whole Southern Water Tribe and is determined to master that element and I just wish could as motivated as her but...
"For the millionth time furball, it's time to eat!" the water tribe so-called warrior had been yelling at her for the past few seconds.
POV: Oh Sokka, the oldest yet immature of the group. Not the best role model to look up to although he's hilarious plus sarcastic equals annoying and weird like me...wait what am I saying! He's Katara's older brother all right, but it shows to say that his sister is the more responsible and mature teenager. He thinks bending is for fools so he'd rather stick to this whole warrior thing and his boomerang which I love nibbling on...he just doesn't know I do it behind his back.
"Coming Mr. Military Man!" Kisaki stood up from her squatting position and followed him.
"Finally, it felt like eternity for you to say something." he escorted her back to the campsite where dinner was being served.
The flying bison, Appa had settled in a spot where no one could disturb him or even here the words "Yip Yip" which was starting to bug him. The flying-winged lemur, Momo had already finished eating his dinner and rested on top of a tree branch with its stomach full and satisfied. Katara and Aang were already sitting on the soft grass eating their share of the meal.
"Hey Kisaki, I've saved you a spot right next to Katara and I" the boy with arrows levitated himself up from the ground and gave way for Kisaki to sit.
POV: My Master or Avatar Aang. He hates it when I call him that. This makes me his bodyguard...oh sorry that's not the word...I meant guardian. Does that sound too formal? Anyway I expected him to be not much older than 112 years old and he's probably my age although he's seven months older.. He's technically a hundred years late and I've learned that he is an Air bender, the last one to be exact. He has no idea what he's been missing out on and is still new to this whole Avatar-save-the-world-thing and so am I. I know exactly how it feels to be in his place after all I am the last of my kind too. Just so you'll know, its my job to keep a watchful eye just make sure that no one harms him or tries to capture him cause he's like the secret key to end this freakin war...blah blah blah...you know what I'm talking about.
"Thanks for sparing my life from Sokka here." she thanked Aang with a bow.
Hearing this didn't please Sokka especially while he was trying to enjoy his food. "Wait till I get my hands on you...you little...hmm this stuff is good." he forgot about Kisaki and continued eating. Kisaki shrugged it off and took a seat next to Aang and Katara and stared at both of them with a smile on her face and then faced Sokka, Momo and Appa.
POV: I'm currently enjoying my new role and made great friends and a new family. There's nothing in this whole world I would give them up for...well especially Aang, I'm pretty much stuck with him until he masters the four elements until summer's end or for eternity but I do regret one thing...
"What's the matter Kisaki, I thought you liked boiled cabbages?" Aang had a worry look on his face.
POV: I don't like it...I love it! Just for the record, Aang and I are both vegetarians but I'm beginning to have a craving for fish ever since I turned into a...
"You haven't even touched your food, anything wrong?" Katara was always concerned about her ever since she became part of the team.
Kisaki didn't know what to answer but she tried to attempt one thing. "May I excuse myself?" she stood up and hid the guilty look on her face.
Sokka looked up with delight. "Does that mean I can have your share?" he reached for her bowl of cabbages.
"Sokka!" Katara snapped at her brother.
"Sheesh I was referring to furball here." he rolled his eyes.
"Her name is Kisaki and you better stop calling her names!" the younger sibling scolded.
"But she's a kid who can turn into a..." he tried to give his defense.
"I actually don't mind really." Kisaki rolled her eyes.
"You've been looking depressed all day. What's up?" Katara knew she was really looking troubled.
Kisaki shrugged it off and said nothing.
"A wise man once said that..." Aang shared another of his quote series.
"Aang not helping!" Sokka interrupted.
"But I haven't even said a word."
"Why do you want to know anyway? It's really none of your business." she turned away from all of them and hugged her knees together and hid her face.
The campfire she had made earlier seemed to have died down really fast and resulted to the dark surroundings of the forest and it scared Sokka (a little).
"Hey Furball, make yourself useful and build another fire would ya?" Sokka commanded her when the embers were already visible.
Kisaki lifted left her hand and fire appeared out of nowhere and continued burning the charcoal wood. It was practically from the mind and it seemed rare for a fire bender to perform that and she seemed like an alien to Aang and the gang.
"Whoa!" they all looked impressed after what she had done.
"Another one of your specialties, Kisaki." Katara praised her but she still didn't face them.
"So if you aren't a fire bender what are you then?" Sokka brought it up.
"I am…sorta?" she replied with a groan. "Even though I'm a descendent from the fire nation doesn't mean I should be on there side. I too feel guilty cause I'm apart of who they are and what they have done to your kind is just wrong."
"Those pathetic merciless dirt bags killed our mother and the rest of the airbenders. You should definitely feel sorry about that." Sokka's tackless mouth blurted it out loud. Kisaki's heart grew more in grief and guilt after hearing this.
"Shut up Sokka." Aang slightly elbowed him from saying anything else.
"You and your big fat mouth!" Katara hushed him and embrace the poor girl. "He definitely wasn't referring to you Kisaki, right Sokka." She glared at her brother and waited for a good answer.
"Er what she said." He stepped aside from the group. "I'll just be over here where the light is…heh heh."
"You were saying Kisaki?" Aang returned to the topic.
"Forget it! You don't wanna know what I've been through before all this…you wouldn't understand cause I'm a firebender." Anger rose in her and released herself from Katara's grasp.
"Wait I thought you were a fire fox?" Sokka spoke from other side where he wasn't visible.
"I am…It's just complicated." She took a deep breath and remained calm for the moment.
"Well we haven' t heard the whole thing so you might us well tell us." Katara conveyed her.
Kisaki sighed and nodded her head.
"Seriously, there's really nothing to hide." Aang joined in.
POV: I knew I couldn't keep hiding this from them and the more I kept it to myself the more they wanted to know about it. I couldn't hold the tears any longer. I didn't want to cry in front of them especially when Aang was around cause it made me show that I'm weak.. Okay, okay, okay! I'll do it! No I can't...I just can't!
"Kisaki please don't cry." Aang glided to her side and tried to cheer her up. It really broke his heart to see his new friend hurt and had no idea what was exactly going in her life.
"I'm weak Aang! I'm sorry...I'm a mistake...I can't be your guardian I just can't!" she sobbed harder and tried to ran away but Sokka, Katara and Momo surrounded the overwhelmed girl with teary red eyes.
"Hey take it easy Furball, were here for you." Sokka didn't sound himself and tried showing some support.
"Listen to me Kisaki, you are not a mistake. You have a responsibility like Aang and the rest of us." Katara comforted her and patted her back.
"You're not weak Kisaki, your just not use to this lifestyle and you don't have to worry about me too much. The truth is…were worried about you." Aang was desperate to know what she was trying to hide.
"So I'm guessing this isn't a right time to tell us huh." Sokka frowned.
Kisaki looked like her heart had been ripped out of her chest and then forced herself to reveal the truth. Everything that she had been through before she even joined them still haunted her. She knew she had turned back and tried to betray her kind. She was as confused as ever right now but she made her move anyway.
"Thanks you guys, I don't know what I'd do without you." she wiped her tears and forced a smile. "I'll...I'll tell you...if that's okay with you guys?"
"Are you sure?" they chorused.
"I mean if you're not ready...you don't have to Kisaki." Sokka rested his figure on a tree and yawned but was somehow interested in wanting to hear it.
"Did you just say my name?" she raised her eyebrow.
"Why am I not surprised?" Katara giggled.
"Did I? I did...I meant Furball." he blushed.
"I have to confess something..." Kisaki choked.
"What is it?" Aang asked.
"Kisaki isn't really my name." she said with a grin on her face.
"I've just realized that it means Queen or Empress or something." Katara put her logic together.
"It was given to me by...by..." she stopped what she was about to say.
"Who?" Sokka wondered.
"Forget it. The point, is I've been trying to get away from my past. Someone once told me that dwelling in the past is a weakness and I've always kept that in mind" she sniffed.
"Well, that person is wrong." Katara interrupted.
"Look, if you're interested in knowing about this I suggest you listen closely, cause I won't be repeating anything after." she announce and even caught Momo and Appa's attention.
The three of them sat down and were opened to hear what she was about to say. Kisaki gathered up all her courage and strength and hoped that it wouldn't last for the whole night. She wasn't sure how to start and couldn't help but let a tear fall when she recalled the phenomenon she had been through.
"It all started..."

How was it? It only took 2 weeks for me to come up with this fic. Her real name isn't Kisaki but I've decided to stick to that name cause I'm more comfortable and use to it. If you have any questions or suggestions, maybe complaints or some violent reactions (I think I can handle) then there all welcome. Thanks for giving your time and I'll try my best to keep updating it. Hope you enjoyed this short chap and hope you make the next one longer. Anywayz have a nice day, be on the look out for latest episodes from Book Earth and I'll keep you updated. God bless everyone!
