I shifted through the crowd, trying to get to some food. Old Lady Mae pulled me to the side as a Satomobile speeded past me. "You need to be more careful" she scolded me. "And you're too muscular! Why can't you be petite and lady-like like the other girls?" She asked me, trying too often to make me more like everyone else.
I smiled at her "because someone has to do all the dirty work" I joked and my shoulder was lightly slapped. "But seriously, I'm the only one who breaks up the fights that go on" I looked over to see grunting. "Like right now…" I parted away from her and shifted through the swarm of red clothing.
There was an opened where two men were brawling. "Back at it again? I thought you guys were over that" I yelled, I clearly didn't catch their attention. "Chan! Lee!" I yelled at them, they stopped and looked at me, I had my hands on my hips and they got up.
I heard in the background "how does a girl that size get two full grown men to stop fighting?" The person was clearly a tourist. I have had to literally break a few bones to stop fights, of course not my bones. I've grown a reputation for this.
Once the fight was officially over, I went back to shopping. A group of people were walking through the crowd, and I didn't recognize them. This was a fairly small village in which everyone knew everyone. Felt a small hand wrap around mine and I looked down to see little Zuko, who was named after our fire lord.
He ran with me following him, and into the road. "Momma told me I can't cross the street without a grownup" he told me, I hoisted him up and onto my shoulders. He rested his chin on my head and I spotted who he was going after, the group of foreigners.
"Really? You want to meet them?" I asked him and he nodded. The street was empty so I went to cross the road when a Satomobile hurdled towards me. I twisted out of its way and just barely missed the car. I kicked it hard in the back, leaving a dent. "Seriously?!" I yelled at the driver.
I placed Zuko down on the ground and I heard a yell. "Hey!" I saw my step-brother, Anakin step from the crowd. And chase after the car.
I heard a scream from the inside of the vehicle. "I can't stop this thing! Make me crash!" All the sudden she slammed into a wall that wasn't there earlier. The driver flew out of the front window and before she could hit the wall it disappeared into the ground. The unfamiliar group ran towards her, who was lying on the ground, coughing.
"You nearly hit my sister!" Anakin yelled at the group. "What's your problem?" I tried to grab him before he reached the group and let his hot head make his choices.
"What's your problem?" A girl with short hair stood up, she was wearing water tribe clothes. She boldly stood out of the crowd. "Asami just crashed and you're worried about someone who didn't get hit?" She yelled back at him.
I grabbed his shoulder and looked him in the eye "Stop. I'm fine" I told him. He pushed away from me and I huffed in frustration. "Anakin!" I yelled at him. I locked my jaw and glared at the back of his head, envisioning me burning a hole through it. He started to move his arms in circular motions, breathing in deep and easy breaths. "Stop it" I told him, but he ignored me.
The tallest one of the group got up, he wore a red scarf and I watched him mimic the movements of my brother. I knew a firebending fight was about to break out, and more importantly, lighting was involved. They both shot out at the same time. I sprinted into the middle of them, making a "t" shape with my body I had my middle and pointer finger out on both hands.
The power shot into my body. It raced through me, making my muscles twitch and my legs wobbly. I had never bended lighting from two people. Once their charges sopped, I crossed my arms and touched my shoulders. Pulling all the electricity out of me, I whipped my hands into a "v" shape and the lightning shot out of me, and into the sky.
I yelled at both of them "Seriously? When will anyone realize that shooting fire and lightning at others will never work?!" I looked around. "I am only 20 years old yet it's my job to stop all of this shit!" I screamed at everyone. I started to walk, I grabbed Anakin`s arm and I looked him dead in the eye "we`re going home" my nails dug into his skin.
