Hey everyone! This is my first fanfiction so I'm sorry if it's bad! So
basically Jet is still hating fire benders, on one of their raids on the fire
nation they capture a prisoner of theres. It's in her point of view and might
switch to his or someone else's not to sure though! Anyways she's doesn't want
to tell them she's a bender for her own reasons, will her silence be enough to
save her?
Disclaimer: I own nothing! Though I wish I did^_^
Chapter One
Jet was tall,lean, and dangerous. He loomed over me, hot breath on my face. He wrapped my long blonde hair
around his hand and clutched it.
"What do we have here?" Jet asked curiously, a twisted smile upon his lips "a
fire bender?"
My jaw clenched and I just looked up into Jet's cold dark brown eye's. When I didn't answer anger flashed across
his face and the next thing I knew I was on the ground with a throbbing head. I tasted blood in my mouth and my
head spun slightly. A hard kick in the stomach followed seconds after. I winced at the harsh blow and curled up
into a ball tightly. This punishment wasn't going to kill me, I had gone through far worse beatings than this.
I was an escaped slave you could say, more like guard but that's besides the point. I lived quite a bit from where
Jet's hideout was, on a large estate for a rich nobleman. His name was Lord Caligar, he was very important so
surrounded by elite fire bending guards was a must. My father had been a guard when he was alive, and his
father before him. My family had been serving the Caligar's for generations. I was brought up to fight, to kill
without thinking. I thought it was normal to burn innocent men to a crisp when they didn't comply to the
nobleman's wishes.
However life had changed slightly for me, Lord Caligar had sent me on a mission out of town. I was his personal
favorite, the best assassin he had. I was sent to collect his gold from a aristocrat, Keft Shanksten. Keft was
already late on his payment to Caligar, and the Lord was very impatient. He sent me to collect his gold with an
extra 40% on top of that for his wait. Obviously I had to make sure Keft wouldn't do it again so I had to scare him
up a bit which wasn't hard. Though when I arrived in Keft's large house I was taken aback at what I saw. He was
a strong sturdy fellow, big hands , long arms and legs. But that wasn't what surprised me, what surprised me
was the little girl in his arms and his beautiful wife sitting next to him. They all seemed so happy. It created a
warm spot in my stomach, something that I wasn't use to.
Though I was there to do my job, which I did. Keft, though his size was large, was shaking in my presence. When
it came time to punish him, I couldn't bring myself to do it. When I forced myself to try and punish him his wife
came bursting into the room with tears down her face. She had her baby clutched against her chest and begged
me not to hurt her husband. I was stunned, to many emotions were swirling through my mind. I stared at her for
a long moment, nodded, then turned around to leave. I didn't know why I listened to her, maybe it was because
her eyes were the same bright green as my mothers. I hadn't known my mother long, for she had died when I
was 6. However I seemed to have a soft spot for the woman, and for the family for that matter. As I was just
about to leave someone hugged me from behind. I froze in shock and forced myself not to lash out to them out of
instinct. The wife then whispered a thank you in my ear before letting me go. I didn't turn around, I just nodded
once more and left the house.
The whole night I thought about the Shanksten family. I soon began to think if I could ever have a life like that. It
was a foolish thought, I would never to live such a free life like they did. But as the three day journey back to the
estate came to an end, I found myself wanting to be free. A week or so passed, I made sure my emotions
remained hidden. One night where Lord Caligar hosted a banquet for his 34th birthday, I managed to escape. It
was hard since I was all dolled up and displayed as his little toy. I was by his side all night, the short,deep red
satin dress was uncomfortable. I never wore any feminine attire, nor make up or jewelry. But on nights like these
I was presented like a queen. People were scared of me, there was not doubt about that. My emerald green eyes
cut right through a person.
By the time the party was over, Lord Caligar was drunk as a sailor. I was his personal guard so I brought him up
to his room and laid him on the bed. He complimented on how beautiful I looked then tried to get with me. I easily
evaded him and knocked him out, then took off out of the window. I snuck passed the other guards easily and
started to run, no where in particular but away. Luckily I had known that I was the one who had to lug up Lord
Caligar to his room I hid my stuff in one of his many wardrobes. It contained a change of clothes which was a
black long sleeved shirt, brown capri's, and leather moccasins. The other contents of the bag contained some
food, money, and throwing knives which I safely tucked into the secret places in my clothes.
Once Lord Caligar woke next morning he would send all his guards after me. I managed to evade them for three
days before I was ambushed. I was taken prisoner, there were far to many of them. While I was chained up in a
tent when they settled camp I heard them being attacked. I couldn't do anything my hands and legs were bound
in a way I couldn't bend. However a large man came in the tent with blood trailing down his forehead. He looked
at me in puzzlement then threw me over his shoulder. I was blind folded so I wouldn't know the way to their hide
out.
When we got their Jet was waiting for them, he was surprised to see me. He claimed that I could be a fire bender
in disguise, since him and his gang were well known to cause trouble for armies so it would be easy to lay a plan
like this. But i would not tell them i was a fire bender, if i did then they would surely try and kill me. I didnt know
how powerful they were, or if any of them were benders themselves. Besides if i stayed with them it would
assure myself from being captured by Lord Caligar. So now this brings us up to where we are now, getting the
shit beat out of me.
"Why won't you talk!" Jet bellowed, his eye's burning with hatred. He grabbed the scruff of my shirt and slammed
me up against a tree. The impact caused all the air to rush out of my lungs. I looked at the guy in front of me
closely, while trying to catch my breath. Jet looked like he was bordering on the age of 18 and early twenties. His
skin was a caramel tone, that complimented his dark brown hair and eyes. Jet's face was unblemished with sharp
facial features. His body seemed to be nothing but muscular, the same with mine. Jet was ruggedly handsome,
though his coldness made him very unattractive. Before he could do anything else to me, a pale hand grasped his
shoulder.
"Take it easy on her, killing her won't get you any answers." The tall boy said "She might be of some use."
I looked up at Jet to see what he would do. I should have looked scared considering I wanted them to believe I
wasn't a fire bender. So my eyes grew wide and innocent as I tried to look harmless. I was use to acting, I had to
it was apart of being a guard and a personal assassin. Jet's expression didn't change but he threw me hard to
the muscular guy behind him in disgust.
"Tie her up and put her in a cage."Jet said bitterly, walking away.
The tall pale guy looked like he was about to say something, but started to drag me away roughly. While we were
on our way to the hide out this guy, who's name was Ben I was pretty sure, released me from my chains so I was
more comfortable. Ben was a sight to see, he was tall and muscular. Not muscular like Jet in a lean way, but he
was hulking. His hair was black, it was a bit longer than a buzz cut. Some hairs got in his eyes, making him flick his
head to the side to get it out of his face. His eyes were most intriguing, they were ice blue. His eyes were not cold
like Jet's but guarded, showing no emotions. Ben to was quite handsome, once you got passed being intimidated
by him.
We finally stopped in a spot where a trap was semi-hidden on the ground. It was probably meant to capture
animals wandering below. He put my hands behind my back and tied them with thick rope. Once he was done he
turned me around to face him.
"Don't bother trying to escape, I'll be watching."Ben said simply and pushed me backwards somewhat gently.
My foot stepped on the trap and immediately I was hoisted 30 some odd feet into the air. The cage wasn't to
small, so I didnt have to hunch over. I sighed to myself and looked down at the ground. I could see that Ben
made his way over to a tree and sat down. I sat back against the bars of the cage and closed my eye's, almost
instantly I fell asleep.
