Kelli's POV

"This year is the bad, unlucky year", Kelli thought. She thought of the dream she had about 8 years ago. After seeing all that, of course she remembered. " This is the year "It" is going to happen. I am going to do everything I can to protect Zuko. It was my promise to Mom before she... you know. Zuko isn't the same anymore."

Narrator's POV

As Kelli was deep in thought, Zuko sneaked off. When Kelli broke out of her thoughts, Zuko was nowhere to be found. Kelli cursed. After about 10 minutes of searching, Kelli asked the guards of the war room where her brother was. They said that he was in the war room. Kelli demanded that the let her in. The guards refused. They said that the meeting had started a few minutes ago and that they were under specific orders to not let anyone in. Especially her. Kelli almost smiled when they said that and flew into a flashback.

Flashback

A 10-year-old Kelli was reading in her room when a servant came in and bowed. " The Firelord Ozai requests that Fire Princess Kelli come to the war room.", the servant said. Kelli smiled and thanked the servant. She went to the war room. Everyone was waiting for her. She sat down next to her secret firebending teacher, or uncle, Iroh. A general walked up to a map in the middle of the war room. He blabbed about something that she didn't care about. Until he said something horrible. " I am recommending the 41st divison.",he said. "But, that divison is made completely of new recruits. How do you expect them to defeat a powerful battalion of earthbenders.", another general said." I don't. They will be used as bait. Fresh meat.",he replied with a sinister look on his face. Kelli raised her hand. Everyone looked at her. The general who presented the plan said," Permission to speak." "Thank you."she said" Out of complete respect sir, don't you think that it is a bit unintelligent to send new recruits out to battle, when they could be potential powerful soldiers?" The general had a face just like a tomato. "Yes. You are dimissed."

Flashback End

In the end, the entire meeting was a test to test if she was respectful. Now the general and her dad hate her. She smirked. The general disliked her for making him look dumb. And her dad... she got pulled into another flashback.

Flashback

Prince Ozai requested an audience with Fire Lord Azulon. The audience was accepted. The family entered the throne room. They all knelt. Prince Ozai asked a few questions that Kelli didn't care about. Azula answered them all correctly. Prince Ozai showed off some moves when Kelli snapped." Ha! Is that all Azula? Well I did that trick when I was five and look at this now." She did the same move, but with multicolor fire (like white, blue, orange, always changing fire) fire. "Is that really all daddy's little girl? I have more tricks up my sleeve." She did a very advanced lightning trick and fired it at the ceiling. Finally, she did something only in legend. She mixed lightning and multicolor fire together. Everyone jumped out of their seat. " Oh my Agni! How did you do that, Princess Kelli?",Prince Ozai asked. "I experimented. I gave quite a few burns, but I mastered it 2 years ago." She made her mixture die." I call it bale fire."

Flashback end

It was obvious that Zuko was in the same test as her. Kelli thanked the guards and went back to her room. She ran through all the different possibilities that could happen to Zuko. When Zuko finally came back into the room, he had a grim, determined look on his face. "What were you doing in there?!", Kelli whisper-screamed. "I wanted to learn the battle plans, so I know what to do when I become Firelord.",He replied. Kelli was supposed to become Firelord, but she stepped down at age 12 because she didn't want the stress and pressures of the throne. That was only one reason. The real reason was that she wanted Zuko to have the throne. She knew it was his dream. Then, Zuko explained his expression. " I kinda insulted a general's plan, so he challenged me to an Agni Kai.", he explained. Kelli's eyes widened out of fear and distress. She wanted to tell Zuko about her dream, but certain rules prevented her from it.

Flashback

A 5-year-old Kelli had finally built up enough courage to tell her family about her dream. However, it was past curfew and the rule was no speaking at all. Kelli fell asleep. In her dream, she saw the three Fates. They threatened to make the Agni Kai come sooner if she told. They told her she could say whatever she wanted after the event. She woke up with a scream.

Flashback End

"I'll help you train. Maybe you will even be able to create bale fire.", Kelli said. "Well, that training has to be fast, because the Agni Kai is in two days.", replied Zuko. Kelli's eyes widened... and she fainted.
