Fire
(Part One)
Prologue:
There was a woman on the ground begging at his feet, screaming at them to let the little girl go. "NO! I WILL DO ANYTHING! JUST PLEASE DON'T TAKE HER!" The man in the armor was cold and heartless. "We don't make deals. Especially with some one like her." He shook the woman off of him. "Not my own daughter! She's only a child! Nothing you would want! She is learning to be a Kiyoshi Warrior. Nothing more. Not even a bender. Please, please, spare her, please." She was practically choking on her own words. He responded, "No, peasant, I have reason to believe that this" pulling the girl up by her collar. "I know, that this is the new Avatar."
Now, I was confused. I was looking out from this. Watching the scared girl, the crying woman (probably her mother), and the cold man in armor. He was wearing dark red a warrior's uniform. He was around in his thirties. The woman wore peasant-like clothing; they looked burnt. She was around thirty years old, too. The young girl wore burnt green yellow clothes, also like the mother, peasant-like. She had jet-black hair, emerald green eyes, and a flawless face. She was around nine years old.
"I won't let you take her! Take me instead! I'm the avatar! Not her! She's just a child! Take me!" she sounded scared, but also trying to sound strong. "Really? Show me, avatar." He said coldly. He got into a fighting position. She took her stance. She could earth bend very well. She knocked him off his feet. "So, Avatar, water bend for me, or fire bend, or even air bend? Can't you do that?" he said. "I won't let you have the honor to see it," she sounded scared. But, he got back up on his feet. Knocked her off and she was unconscious. "Filthy peasant. Try to fool me. Ha."
Suddenly, the little girl got up and saw that her mom was unconscious. She went at the man, attacking him by earth bending. "Quite impressive for just a child." She only smiled, "Not such a hot-shot now? Are you?" the girl replied. "You little smart mouth. You aren't even trained. You think you can defeat me?"
The girl's eyes widened, she knew this was true. But she knew she had to try, for her mother, her village, and for herself. He struck back at her. She fell onto the ground.
She was weakened. She looked at her mother. Her mother was scared. Next to her mother were two girls, her identical twin sister, and another girl next to that one. It was the injured girl's best friend. The injured girl looked back at the man. "Ha, 'not so much a hot-shot now? Are you?' I underestimated you. That will not happen again. You are coming with me." He picked her up and carried the weak girl onto the giant ship. She could her people screaming in the distance. But mainly she could hear one voice, and one that matter the most to her. "June! JUNE! JUNE!" Then, she went unconscious.
Chapter 1:
Six years and nine months later….
"Aha! I beat you again, Soza!" the proud fifteen year-old stood. She was wearing red clothing. She is a noble and wealthy family in the Fire Nation. So was her best friend. "Not yet, June. You may the best fire bender yet, and a swords master. But, I can talk to boys at least!" Soza said.
"That maybe true, but I a better student! Ha!" she said. Suddenly when she was going to attack me, she found two fans; my only weapons were two fans on the ground. She picked them up without thinking. She began attacking without thinking. She beating her with this power she never knew She had. Soza stumbled onto the ground. "Where did you learn to do that?!". "I don't know," She said shockingly.
Suddenly, an attractive guy around fifteen, walks up stares, about to say something, and walks away blushing. She started to blush.
"Mako likes you, June. And I know you like him, too." Soza said.
"Yeah, but I can't ask him out. And there's no way he will ask me out."
"Well, do you want me too?"
"No! You know that I like him! You promised that you wouldn't!"
"No, not like that, silly girl, I could tell him to ask you out."
"No, he's too shy, that's one thing I like about him. I want him to ask me out on himself. And I want it to be special."
"Like how?"
"Like at the Lantern Festival. You know, like at night under lit lanterns at night, by the fountain. And then, he would kiss me. You know, all special. But, before my sixteenth birthday."
"Wow, those are some high expectations. But, I think I can make that work. I will talk to people."
"No! I want him to do it!"
"He's never going to do it."
"But….."
"Look, it's going to happen or never. Your choice."
"Fine, I give in to it. You can help."
"Yay."
"Gotta go, my mom is calling." she ran away running to her home. Her home, her home in the Fire Nation.
June's Version:
"Mother!"
"June? Is that you?" my mother said. She had long dark hair, not as dark as mine, but very dark. Almost as a flawless face as mine. She is tall, taller than me. She has dark golden rod eyes. She is in dark red robe. I have a crimson dress on. We were near the pond.
"Mom, do you ever have weird dreams? Like some one's childhood?"
"What do you mean?" she asked intently.
"I mean, I have been having these weird dreams lately. Like one, I dreamed that I was in like a past life, of an avatar, some one named Avatar Kyoshi, Avatar Roku, Avatar Aang, and Avatar Korra. Weren't they past avatars? And I wonder who the new one is? But, I had one were I was on Island Kyoshi, and I was a little girl. Actually, I don't remember my childhood. I wonder why?"
"Well, you never had a good memory." She said trying to be honest.
"Yes I do. Whatever, so do you have any idea what it means?"
"No. I'm sorry, I don't."
"Ok, bye mother. I will see you at dinner." I left. A strange man came into the room
"Look, were going to have to tell her eventually, I mean, she is almost sixteen, they are going to tell her then. She is going to realize sooner or later that she does not belong here. I mean she has an Earth Kingdom name. June is not a common name. What if she remembers? What if some one comes and reminds her of her past? Or worse, tells her that she's the Avatar. This is wrong. You never should have taken from Kyoshi Island, from her mother. This is wrong."
The strange man came in. "Look, I secured the mission. The Fire Lord wanted this. He wanted the new Avatar to help him. This is saving the Fire Nation. You don't want your husband to fall, right?"
"Oh course not, but it doesn't seem that this is right way. There should be another way. What are we going to tell her when she sixteen. It is age that they are told. And what are we going to tell her when she finds out. It's supposed to be an Earth Kingdom Avatar next, not a fire bender."
"Look, she is never supposed to find out. And you wont be the one to tell her, right?"
"Right. But what if she finds out?"
"She won't."
