SIDE NOTE: The princess of the water tribe is not Yui. She's actually not in this story. Sorry

Chapter one Battle

Roaring sounds of battle raged through the Northern water tribe as the fire nation attacked with no mercy. Cries and scream could only be heard on the bloody battlefield. Screams of victory… cries of terror. The waterbenders fought hard without the moon spirit on their hands. The fire nation had to pick the night of the new moon; when the waterbenders were weak and very much defenseless.

"Mommy." A young cry echoed throughout the kingdom fortress. A small child of three ran every hallway, looking for her mother.

"Yukino!" A soft but ruff voice yelled as she ran to her young. She embraced her child as fire nation soldiers surrounded her. "Stay with me." She whispered in the young girl's ear.

Yukino looked up at her mother with tearful eyes. She was frightened, and sad. The vision of her father lying in a puddle of blood flashed through her head once again causing a shiver down her spine.

"Its the end for you… your highness… Lilia ." A stern vicious voice growled as a man stepped in front of the soldiers. Lord Ozai was his name; the man that was going to end the war victorious. A shadow stood beside the lord as he put his hand on another small child's head. "Today my son, you'll experience what it feels be great." He grinned as his other hand formed a fire spear.

"Laugh all you like… you'll never win." Lilia grimaced. "The spirits will-"

"Will what?" Ozai interrupted. "The spirits are of no help. They would have helped you a long time ago if they cared." He laughed. Lilia began to shake with anger and fear.

"Your wrong.." Lilia hid behind her hair that fell in front of her face. She pulled off a bracelet and set it in front of her. Ozai raised an eye brow as he watched her form a circle in the icy ground around the bracelet.

"What do you think you are doing?" Ozai stepped forward but a burst of ice blocked him. Lilia looked up at the man who over shadowed her. Her eyes glowed the lightest blue as her hair turned from black to snow white. "Impossible." Ozai gasped. The ground shook viciously like an earthquake.

"Mommy…?" Yukino stepped back, only to fall on her rear from a crack. Tears began to leak down the young princess's cheek as she watched her mother transform into this - this spirit.

"Run." Lilia muttered. The glow surrounded her body and lifted her up. "Your wrong Ozai… The spirits has been with me this entire time." She grinned, lifting her hand. Water splashed up, slicing into some of the fire nation soldiers surrounding her. The fortress began to crack, ice dropping from the ceiling above without caution.

"You will leave." Lilia hissed. The ice below her feet began to rise upward as she was lifted out of the fortress. As she rose above her kingdom, she stared down at the battlefield below her. A single tear rolled down the side of her face.

"My god.. She's crazy." Ozai yelled and quickly stepped back. "She's willing to sacrifice her life to save her people!" He turned on his heel. "Prince Zuko… come." He ordered as he ran off. The young prince was about to turn when he noticed a block of ice heading straight down on Yukino. "Look out!" He yelled and quickly ran at her, fire bending the ice into water. He looked down at her teary dark blue eyes, a sudden guilt ran over him. He turned and quickly ran off.

A majority of the fire nation had fled away from the tribe. Lilia had gained enough power to turn the fire soldiers into ice and knew the consequences. "Good bye my daughter… become a great leader for your people." She closed her eyes as the glow spread outward from her body, spreading throughout the entire northern tribe. Her body faded away into the air above, nothing of her was left. The only trace of fire nation soldiers were the statues of ice, and nothing more. It was time to rebuild once again, and hope for the better.

"Princess Yukino!" An older woman yelled as she found the small princess. She fell in front of the child staring at her teary eyes. "Are you alright?"

Yukino looked at the woman. "Aunt Tsubaki." She gasped and clung to her aunt. She cried her heart out into the older woman's clothing. Tsubaki frowned, knowing what had happened to her sister. That day, no one will ever forget the death of the beloved Queen of the water nation and her bravery to her peoples lives.
