Prologue
A new Avatar is born

It has been 4 years ever since the death of my mother, Avatar Korra. Ever since then, I decided to go traveling in the Earth Kingdom, looking for the next Avatar. Unlike my twin sister Zuna, who just wanted to stay in Republic City.
My name is Kiara, a waterbender. I have been traveling around the Earth Kingdom for 6 weeks, and still no sign of the next Avatar, that would obviously be born in the Earth Kingdom as a part of the cycle. I thought on just giving up. I thought the Avatar would figure it out him-or herself who they really are, and just announce it to the world on their own.

But that thought disappeared after running into a kind and beautiful young woman in Ba Sing Se. Her name was Lisa. She claimed she wasn't from there, but lived in a pretty small town that was nearby. She told me about her 4 year old daughter, Terra, and how she knew she was the Avatar. I was able to arrange a visit, and now I'm heading to her house in that small town that she mentioned.

I had so many questions in my head. Is this child really the Avatar? Would it be another mistake or misunderstanding? I hoped this child would not fail my test, because I've been traveling on my feet and running out of money. I'd take our Polar Bear Dog, but, Zuna just decided to keep it.

I stopped in front of a normal sized house. It was the right size for a family of 3 or something like that. I inhaled sharply, then knocked on the door 3 times. About a few seconds later, it opened. Standing in front of me was Lisa, and a taller man with his hair tied in a small ponytail that was barely noticeable.
"It is nice to see you again, Kiara" said Lisa. I nodded.

"Good to see you too" I turned to the tall man. "You must be her husband, and the father of Terra. Am I correct?" He nodded as a reply.

"Yes, my name is Forte. It is a pleasure to meet you Kiara" he reached out his hand and I shook it.

"Please, come in" said Lisa as she opened the door more for me to come in. Their living room was nice and neat, having pictures on a shelf here, glass and silverware on a shelf there. I sat down on a brown couch that was in front of a neat round table. Forte went into the kitchen and brought me a teacup and a teapot. I took the teapot and poured the tea inside of it into the cup.

"Thank you" I say. I take a sip and look at a picture of a little baby girl that was wrapped around in a pink cloth. She was being held by Lisa, who looked like she was laying in a hospital bed with a smile on her face, looking down at the infant. Standing next to her was Forte with the same face that showed happiness and love as he was looking at the baby in his wife's arms. I wondered if that was how happy my mother and father, Korra and Mako, were when me and Zuna were born.

"Oh that? That's just a picture of Terra, when she was born" says Lisa with a smile. I smile and nod at her. "It was the happiest day of our lives, and ever since we found out she was the Avatar, we were the most happiest parents in the world" she says putting a hand on her heart. I nod.

"So, where is she?" I ask.

"Sorry about that, let me call her" says Lisa. She turns to face a hallway that was in front of me and calls out. "Terra, the young woman is here to see you!" she says. There was a silence. I see a little girl peeking out from behind the wall. She had black hair, with little red bunches tied up. She looked at me with shy green eyes, and didn't even move a step forward.

"It's alright sweety, I'm not going to harm you" I say with a smile. She looks at me, still having the look of your average shy little toddler.

"Terra, come out. It's alright" says Forte. The little girl, who was Terra, placed her foot out, then starts walking out of her mini hiding place. Her parents dressed her up nicely in a traditional Earth Kingdom dress that would be usually worn to parties and such. She stops in front of me, and looks up at me.

"Y-you're Korra's daughter?" she asked in a soft voice that just made my heart melt. I nodded.

"Yes sweety, I am. I'm here to see if you are the Avatar. Now tell me, do you know the four elements?" I ask. She nods. "Can you tell me what they are?"

"Uh huh. They are water, fire, earth, and air"

"Good. Are you a bender?" she nods.

"I can use earth like Mama and Papa" she says.

"Can you use any element other than earth?" I ask. That was when she stopped nodding and telling me things.

"Terra, can you?" asks Forte. She looks at her feet. It grew silent. Was she just a bit shy? Or was this another false claim? I didn't want to leave, but I had to.

"I don't want to waste anyone's time here, so I'll just sleep at the nearby motel and come back tomorrow, if that's okay" I say. Lisa nods.

"Yes, I understand" she says. I walk to the door, but as I was just about to grab the handle...

"Wait!"

A rock flew by past me and was flung against the wall. I look at the spot it hit, and there was a large dent in it. A swoosh of air sweeps past me, then a light of fire can be seen in the reflection of a window. I turn around slowly, and see Terra, the shy little toddler, in a fighting stance. She brings up another rock from the ground and throws it towards the window, causing the glass to shatter. I look at her parents, who look at her amazed. She brings out water from a vase with a couple of hand movements and turns it into ice shards like a pro. She flings them to all the pictures that were hanging. She brings out two large balls of fire from her fists, then spins all around like a dancer, letting the fire fly and spiral around her. For the finale, she finally creates a whoosh of air from her hands and jumps up high, nearly hitting the ceiling. She kicks the floor with air from her feet, and lands softly with a small thumpfrom her feet.

She looks at me, from shy green eyes to green eyes that showed determination. She was breathing heavily, in and out, in and out. Her little hands were still curled in fists, her hair that was brushed so neatly got messed up and was hanging all over her face.

"T-Terra, you never bended like that before" says Lisa looking at her daughter, still as shocked as I was. She looks at her and nods with a smile that plasters her determined face, the face that showed as if she was competing in something.

"I know" she says. I'm surprised at how the tone of her voice changed, from shy to confident. She turns to face me.

"I guess I go wild when I wanna prove something" she says with a soft giggle at the end.

There is no mistaking it I thought looking at her. This girl is definitely the Avatar.

Exciting ain't it? It took me a while to think of this.

I only own Terra, her parents, Kiara and Kiara's sister Zuna
