Chapter two, the tragedy.
Kelik now drew his sword. He knew, it was time. But he was ready, or at least he thought he was ready. Until he saw it, hundreds of fire nation troops, way more then they had anticipated.
"Don't be scared son," his father said " don't be scared."
"don't worry father, everything will turn out alright." But Kelik new that not only he was scared, but father and the rest of the soldiers as well. The troops were advancing quickly, and everyone was not ready to fight them.
They finally came to a stop close to them. And a man on a horse rode towards them.
"Well well well, what do we have here." said the man on the horse. "the great earth bender Rog and his son". He was now so close to them, that Kelik could smell the stench of smoke on him. " tell me," the man said, " is it true you killed over one hundred fire nation troops in a single battle?"
"Yes it's true, and I still have little remorse for it" Father responded coolly. " By the way, since you know who we are, would you mind telling me who you are?"
"Ha ha, how rude of me, how rude of me huh men?" the other fire nation soldiers laughed. " I am the brother of the man you tortured and killed, I am general Shakiro."
" And let me guess, you have come here to take my home and for revenge?" Father said.
"no not really", General Shakiro responded. "I came for two simple reason. Reason one, is so that I can see the look of fear in your eyes when I arrived with much more soldiers than you anticipated. And reason two, well me and my boys just want to kill us a couple of earth benders, ha ha ha. Excuse me, more than a couple."
"Then what are you waiting for, lets start the battle." Said father.
"okay, but first let me make you a deal."
"what do you want."
"hand over your son, and we will leave your village forever."
Father looked at the man closely, then walked closer to him. He then uttered three words, "go to Hell."
"you first." and in a flash, General Shakiro sliced Kelik's father across his chest, spraying blood all over Shakiro's face. Then he gave a deafening yell "ATTACK". And with that the battle began.
Kelik had no time to think about his father's death, he focused all on the battle. Two fire nation troops ran toward him to attack, but before they did anything Kelik summoned up a wall of dirt. Blinded, the two troops started rubbing there eyes, Kelik, who was dual weilding swords, took his chance to slice them both across the neck. He then stabbed to men, who were attacking an earth bender, in the back. A fire bender came to him from behind, and Kelik turned swiftly and kicked him in the jaw, Kelik then sliced his throat. And the battle went on this way, Kelik was indeed a damn good warrior, but the earth benders were outnumbered, slowly they were losing the battle. Kelik noticed that they started to burn the village and he fought even harder. Killing more mercilessly. But he knew they were going to lose. One by one the earth benders were falling. But it was until he heard General Shakiro yell
"Find the son, I want you all to look for him and kill him."
"why the hell do they want me so bad. It doesn't matter, all that matters is that stay alive." Kelik thought. And with that he came up with a plan, he didn't like it, but without it he had no chance of revenge. Kelik ran and hid under a small cave he had built when he was young. He replaced the entrance of the cave with a small boulder. It was invisible to naked eye. He now laid warm and cozy in the cave. He eventually fell a sleep, he fell a sleep to a dream of tragedy.
