Bang!! I flew right out my bed and landed with a huge thud. I get up and look outside of my house. I see Kukiko panic with fear and she howls loudly. I quickly but on my boots and my waterskin then I rush outside. My eyes went in total shock when I saw the whole scene. My home was being invaded by ruthless firebenders. I rush over to Kukiko and hop on her back. She runs towards the battle scene as I gathered some water around me. A firebender blasts at a little girl but Kukiko was fast enough for me to block it with a splash of water. I grab the little girl and rush off to the girl's mother. I give the girl to her mother and Kukiko takes off. We rush faster and faster until a Rhinocerous whams right into Kukiko's side. We tumble to the ground as Kukiko whimpers. I lay on the ground in pain as I felt a piercing pain on my ribs. Not caring about the pain I'm in, I rush over to Kukiko. I gather water and healed her as fast I could. Unforturnately, I wasn't fast enough since firebenders started to surround me. I get into a waterbending postition and waterbends a stream of water in a circle. I make it get bigger and bigger and then, I blast it at every firebender around me. They fall back so I take care of Kukiko.She starts to get up and I step back. Her crystal blue eyes look at me, telling me that she would be alright. She kneels down for me to get on and so, I do. We take off once again and I bend water again and again as people came around me. A firebender shoots a blast right for us. I bend a huge slab of ice in front to block his attack and then I instantly get a water whip to him. He falls cold.Kukiko jumps over obstacles that the firebenders has put in front of us. She attacks a few firebenders in the front as I get rid of the ones on the side. "EYA!!" screamed a voice behind me.I quickly turn to see Airi and Hikaru in trouble. Firebenders had grabbed Airi and some have Hikaru on the ground. Kukiko races over to the scene as fast as her legs could carry her. I jump off of Kukiko into the air and gathered water in my hands. I spin around in the air and the water in each of my hands join together and then I slash it out at the firebenders. They fall to the ground and I help Airi up. Kukiko growled at the firebenders around Hikaru. Airi and I waterbend at all of the firebenders. Kukiko joins in by attacking everyone in her path. Hikaru is finally set free and he rises to his feet. A firebender sneaks up behind him but the elk kicked him with his back legs. Airi gets on Hikaru as I get on Kukiko and we rush to go help the other benders in our tribe. Without notice, a chain wrapped around Airi's hands and she falls off of Hikaru. She tries to bend but its no use. Hikaru rushes to save her but it ends up that he too is captured with ropes tied around his shoulder, legs, neck, and one around his mouth. Moments later, I too am captured. Kukiko is struggling but the firebenders stood their grounds. I look around and some more female waterbenders were captured. I look in horror as I see them being pulled away to the ships. The children screaming for them but the women who were left back, calmed them down. Airi and I were pulled by other firebenders who wanted us to keep moving. Kukiko and Hikaru right behind us. Hikaru refuses to move but people in the back pushed him in. Kukiko growls and snarls at them. They pulled Kukiko in the ship. Airi and I was next. She walks in with defeat. I look around before I was put in. The other women was put on a different ship but Airi, Hikaru, Kukiko, and I was put on a different ship. I couldn't understand why. I look once more back at my home, knowing that I probably won't be able to see my home anymore. With that, I was shoved inside and the doors closed right behind me. I close my eyes and a tear rolled down my cheek.
