Dominique (Nikki) P.O.V
"Hey Tori, come here for a second!" I whisper yelled to my best friend.
"What do you want now Nikki?" Tori sighed. She looked over at me and shook her chocolate brown hair at me, rolling her orangey red eyes in exasperation.
"This is no time for play, something is going on here!" I said, more urgently now, "I have to show you something really crazy!" Tori slowly got up and followed me. I could tell that she thought I was about to prank her, but this time it was different. I led her to the small nook we discovered when we were in sixth grade; ivy covered the walls, blocking it out from the rest of the world. A small brook ran across the 20 meter wide space, soft green grass covered every other space and a tall willow tree hung its wispy branches into the brook.
"What is it Nikki," Tori asked impatiently, her eyes darted around mistrustfully. I didn't say anything. I just pulled her over to the brook. I leaned down, and let my emotions take over, all of my sadness and anger and frustration. I poured all of my feeling to my wrists, which I had begun to move. Back and forth, back and forth I moved my hands and wrists. Slowly but surely the water rose up and began to follow my arms.
"Nikki what are you doing now?" Tori asked bewilderedly.
"Can't you see? I'm waterbending!" I shouted in glee. My long black hair rippled behind my back and my silvery blue eyes danced. Tori could only watch in shock. This was the stuff of dreams. Who would have thought that bending was real!
"Okay, you can stop tricking me! The joke's up, I know this is a trick!" Tori said, not believing her eyes.
If you this is cool, just wait 'till you see this! I thought.
Now I let the anger take over, it was pure and hot. I dropped the water with a splash and a small flame danced atop my finger tips. I giggled; it tickled, like a little bug was walking on my hand. I let the little flame die out and turned to look at my dumbfounded friend.
"Oh man, you should see the look on your face!" I laughed; she stared at me in shock and amazement.
"Come over here, try to do something," I suggested.
She looked at me and slowly walked over to me.
"If this is a hoax, you better watch out," she warned.
"Yeah, yeah, just bend," I snarked.
She crouched down into a resemblance of an earthbending stance. She had a face of fierce concentration. She made a harsh motion with her hands and slamming her foot onto the ground, knocking me off of me feet and onto my butt.
"Owww, what the hell Tori?!" I asked angrily.
"Oopsie," She mumbled, "anyways, I think I can earthbend."
"Ya think?" I asked sarcastically, chuckling at the stunned look on her face.
"Okay, now try to do something else, like firebending!" I suggested eagerly.
"Yeah, you know how adore fire!" she said happily. She leaned forward and looked at her fingers and took a deep breath in. As she let her breath out a small jet of fire jumped out of her palm. She looked around in amazement and smiled. She had always wanted to firebend. I was just really happy to have waterbending.
"Oh wow, I can't believe this is happening!" she squealed happily.
"Tell me about it sister, this is so awesome, I'm so glad that we can both do some sort of bending! I don't know what I would have done if it was only me with bending abilities!" I said thoughtfully.
Anger flashed in her eyes and she did an about-face whipping her long hair wavy hair behind her. "I hate that thought, you would have still told me right?!" she asked worriedly.
"Of course I would have! You're my best friend, I would tell you anything!" I yelled defensively.
"Whoa, calm down," she put her hands up, "No need to bust a boob" she muttered.
The shrill cry of the bell rang out among our secret world, the silence was broken, and so was our moment of magic. We ran inside, we knew this was going to have to stay a secret. We made up a time to meet each other. This was the start of a whole new life and we both knew it.
WHOOO end of (the revisited) chapter one. Sorry for taking so long to put up the better version of this story. My most trusted advisor told me it was a teeny bit short and that it needed some more details. So I took it down and have finally gotten around to fixing it up. Hope you guys will review!
