Breathing

Strength

Skill

Precision

Zuko's target, the centre of the Avatar, the Water Tribe girl and Azula.

Aang's turn

Two whips flowing through the air as he controlled his breathing, the power increased. It was an ancient art, precise and deadly enough to cut through the Avatar's defence.

Katara's turn

Two whips, flowing through the air as his breathing increased, his power lacking. He calculated his moves making it seem as like an attack.

Azula's turn…

His breathing hardened, his body weak, his skill tucked away…

And his precision

Didn't show

The thoughts running through his mind as a bright blue light hurtled towards him.

Down

In

Up

And out

"It can be deadly"

His moves were right

His mistake took its toll

As he lay there dying

He saw her running towards him.

Dai Li stood motionless looking at the body of his once 'sister.' Their once 'leader.'

Katara knelt beside him, tears running down her face.

"It has special properties so I've been saving it for something important. I don't know if it will work but…"

Breathing, deep and uneven.

Strength to carry on

Skill, she was among the few to carry such great power

Precision, such skill needs someone who can handle it

My vision was filled with blue.

She smiled

I smiled back.
