Book One: The Rise of Shouri

Chapter One: The Prophecy.

The gang all stared up at Uncle Iroh intently. After the war was over, Aang, Katara, Sokka, Suki and Toph all moved to Ba Sing Se where they felt they could finally live a peaceful life. Zuko came to visit all his friends and his Uncle at his little tea shop in Ba Sing Se. Zuko was relieved to finally get away from the Fire Nation for a bit, he really needed a break.

Uncle pulled open his book and continued reading. The gang had visited Uncle on a daily basis. He continued to read them a book that was believed to contain the future of their world.

Aang looked over at Katara almost blocking out everything Uncle was saying. It hadn't been long after the war, and nothing really happened to them after their big kiss. He felt as if she enjoyed to play with his heart, but he knew that was so unlike Katara. He wanted a relationship like Sokka had with Suki. He almost admired their relationship. Aang pushed away his thoughts and sat up straight, suddenly remembering that Uncle was still reading to them.

"An evil soul will return with un-controlling rage powered by vengeance. The only way this evil can be stopped is by the two avatars. With no air benders in the world, two new avatars will be born at the same time. Both born destined to bring peace to the world, both born as an avatar of their own, both born polar opposites. Together they will learn the four elements, and together they will keep the world balanced. The world will depend on these two. The world would be gone without them." Uncle Iroh closed the book of prophecies that rested on his lap.

"Wow..." Toph stared blankly.

"So theres really going to be a time where there will be TWO avatars?!" Aang shouted out.

"According to the prophecy." Uncle said, pouring some tea.

"So how long do ya think before theres gonna be two avatars?!" Sokka jumped in.

"AGH! Not long I hope." Aang cried.

"Ahaha," Uncle laughed, "I'm sure thats not going to happen for another hundred years or so. Now, who wants some tea?"

As Uncle poured the tea, Aang just couldn't escape the uneasy feeling settling in his stomach. Something big was going to happen, he could feel it. It may have been the fact that he is the avatar, or perhaps, he just has a natural sense of disaster.

"Aang, is everything alright?" Katara spoke up.

"Yeah, you look more pale than normal," said Sokka, trying to lighten up Aang's grim face.

Katara's reassuring voice eased his cluttered mind. Maybe he was just over-reacting. Perhaps disaster wasn't the only thing he felt. Somewhere deep inside him, he had a shimmering light of hope. Then again, maybe, just maybe, it wasn't the light of hope he felt. It was the light of hope dying down.

-In our dimension-

Kaliy grabbed her ringing cell phone, "Hey, Elari?"

"Oh my gosh! Tell me you just saw that!" exclaimed Elari on the phone.

"The Avatar finale?! Of course I did! Thats so crazy! I can't believe it's just over forever!"

"Dude! I know. Hey do you want to meet up at the custard stand for some icecream and a hardcore avatar discussion?" Elari laughed.

"Dude, fo rizz!" Kaliy giggled, "I'll be there in like ten minutes."

"Kay, see ya."

Kaliy grabbed her purse and left the house to walk.

"MOM!" Elari's voice echoed in the house."

"Yes Elari?"

"Can you take me to the custard stand? Me and Kaliy are gonna meet up there."

Elari's mother sighed, "Get in the car..."

Elari grinned and ran towards the car.

Kaliy's hands were in her pocket as she strolled down the sidewalk. Suddenly, she felt a tug on her purse. She turned to see an old man holding her purse in his hand and a knife in the other.

"Uhm...excuse me?" Kaliy stared, fear filling her lungs.

In one swift motion the man lunged at her stabbing her right in the gut.

"UGH!" Kaliy cried falling to the ground.

"Mom!" Elari cried out, "Slow down! That light is turning red!"

"No it's not!" Elari's mother yelled speeding up.

"MOM! WATCH OUT!" Elari cried watching a little red car coming right at her in the passengers seat.

Elari's mother tried to speed up, but it was to late. Elari could feel the pressure hitting her sides, the glass falling on her face and her life slowly slipping.

"Call an ambulance!"

Kaliy slowly opened her eyes to see a crowd of people standing over her. "Are you ok dear?" a random lady asked.

"I- ahhh!" Kaliy cried suddenly feeling pain, "What's going on?!"

"You were stabbed dear, but don't worry, an ambulance is on the way."

Everything started to blur. It was getting harder for Kaliy to keep her eyes open.

An ambulance finally arrived and the crowd of people ran over to explain what happened.

Kaliy's view started fading, it was getting darker and harder to breath.

Elari could see the red and blue flashing lights and hear the sirens but she couldn't move a muscle. "OH DEAR LORD! Mom! Mom are you alive?!" she cried.

"Yes dear," Elari's mother stood outside the car crying, "The officers got me out safe," she sniffed, "they're still trying to get you out."

"MOOOOM! MOOOOM I CAN'T MOVE! I CAN'T MOVE MOM!"

"It'll be ok dear, just hold on, oh for the love of god, hold on!!"

"No... I can't take any more of this."

Kaliy: I wish

Elari: that I could

Kaliy: just get out of

Elari: this place

Kaliy: to somewhere better,

Elari: somewhere where I'm important.

Kaliy and Elari: I know it's my time to leave this world.
