Here's a new story for you guys! Enjoy!
"Hey what happened to all the lights?" I asked, looking around my room. "Hello?"
"Guys this isn't funny." I said tensely as I heard a rustling sound coming from the hallway.
When no one replied I reached for my flashlight in my dresser. "Figures" I mumbled as i tried clicking on the flashlight. "The batteries must be dead."
I didn't know what was happening, it was really quiet, not even the usual chirp of the crickets outside my bedroom window could be heard, i was terrified.
"Hello?" I asked again "Is anyone out there?"
I jumped in fright as I suddenly heard some guys' voice on a walkie-talkie groan "Hey John you got anything yet?"
'I don't know anyone named John' I thought to myself. 'Who could be out there?'
I crept towards the hallway on my tippy toes trying not to make any noise that might lead to my discovery when I accidently stepped on a floorboard that made a load creaking noise.
I squeezed my eyes shut, held my breath and listened for the intruder.
"Dave I think I heard something" another man whispered.
"Alright John be careful, she's a level one bender and very dangerous, take extreme caution, she doesn't have much control over her abilities." said the man over the walkie-talkie.
"Got it, thanks" the other man-John whispered even closer this time.
'How could they know what I am? who are these people?'
"H-Hello?" I tried again "Who are you?" I asked the stranger.
"Dave, I think I got her" said the man dressed fully in black who was about 15 feet away from me now.
The man then shone a flashlight right into my face so I had to put my hand in front of my eyes to block it out.
"Hey Dave are you sure this is the one were looking for, she's just a little kid"
"John, were sending a dispatch team your way, stay where you are." The voice from the walkie talkie replied.
The guy named John didn't seem to hear what Dave was saying who I figured was his boss. "Hey little one my names Dave, there's no need to be afraid now" Dave said to me I'm a coaxing voice.
"Who are you?" I asked him, wary and untrusting of this strange man "What do you want with me?"
The man seemed to be smiling but I couldn't really tell with the camouflage paint over his face. "Don't worry kid, everything will be alright" he replied.
"You didn't answer my question, who are you and what do you want?" I asked, starting to get angry.
"We know a lot about you Lena, the last water bender" he said rather calmly.
"How do you know who I am?" I asked even though at this point I didn't care, I just wanted to distract him while I looked for a way out.
"Well….." he started talking, but I drowned him out and focused on my own thoughts.
I knew I couldn't get passed him, as he was standing in the doorway with some type of gun on his belt, and using my bending was too dangerous as I didn't have full control yet.
After analyzing my options I decided to make a break for the nearest escape route- the window.
My bedroom window runs from the floor to the ceiling so I know I won't have a problem getting through it, but the question is- 'will the dispatch team they were talking about earlier already be waiting for me?'
I decided I didn't have much of a choice anyway, so without any more delay I dashed for John's gun on his belt while he was distracted to use it to break the window glass.
I moved so quickly, 'how is this even possible?'
"Hey!" yelled Dave "Stop right there!"
But his yelling was too late- not that i would listen anyway, I was already heading for the window.
My plan was thwarted when it suddenly broke in a million tiny pieces. Three guys dressed like Dave burst in the window in a flurry of glass and landed softly on my room floor surrounding me.
"Dammit" I mumbled to myself.
"Whoa there cutie you aren't going anywhere" said one of the men arrogantly who looked the same age as me, maybe a year older.
"Wanna' bet on it?" I growled at him, but I didn't give him any time to respond as I moved using the weird super speed I used earlier.
I rushed for the guy closest to me which was the one around my age, tackling and landing on top of him.
I punched him in the face as hard as I could, and just as I pulled back to do it again I felt one of those gun things pressed up against my arm.
"See you in hell cutie" he whispered to me with a sad smile, before he pulled the trigger.
'A dart gun' my brain supplied as my vision turned blurry and my hearing muted.
The last thing I remember is him carrying me toward a jet with the letters B.C.U on the side as he whispered "I'm sorry" before I passed out against his shoulder.
