I rubbed my eyes, the bright moonlight peering in. I was restless, so I got up and walked out of my room. I walked down the large flight of stairs and went all the way to the kitchen. I grabbed a cup and ran it under some water. All of the sudden a hand wrapped over my mouth and an arm around my neck. I let go of my water, and the glass audibly crashed onto the floor.

I violently trashed my legs around as I was lifted off the floor. I waited until I was outside to attack. I breathed in sharply through my nose and screamed, fire spouted out of my mouth and the man who covered my mouth threw me off him. I rolled on to ground and I dug my fingers into the ground. The dark of night masked my vision and I felt the ground, the surroundings. I felt the body`s weight. Several bodies.

I slammed my palm down, the ground under the figures launched them up and into the air. "Aries!" Anakin yelled as he ran outside and grabbed me, and helped me up. Suddenly, Anakin`s grip was ripped away from me and the back of my hair was grabbed. My head was slammed into something metal, I rested my hands on it and pushed myself back, fire blasting out of my bare feet.

Something crackled behind me, I whipped my head backwards and saw a strong bolt of lightning start to generate. And I immediately knew it was too much for him to handle him. I watched in horror as he tried to release all the energy but none of it came out. It made it to his arm, but I watched as he electrocuted himself. The strongest light I had ever seen came out and I saw all my surroundings. I noticed the figures were wearing old-style earthbending clothing.

"Anakin!" I screamed, unexpectedly shooting fire out of my mouth. The blue flames served as a cover and I watched them grab Anakin and they disappeared. I couldn't move, it's like my body was suddenly paralyzed. I fell to my knees, tears running down my face. Blood trickled down from my nose and over my lips.

The door swung open behind me. "Aries, Aries!" I heard my dad yell.

"I-I could have stopped them" I shakily said. "They took Anakin" I whispered to my dad. I looked over to see the light in my house shining a silhouette on four figures. My dad crouched over and I leaned into him, weeping into my hands.

. . .

I sat up straight, looking into the mirror. The puffiness of my eyes had went down and I luckily had not bruising, just some blunt force trauma to my nose and back of my head. I wore a long, deep red dress with a slit that went all the way to my hip. The dress tied up behind my neck and exposed the majority of my back, and shoes with a high heel moved up my height four inches, making me 5'5. I stood up and walked to the door, my dark brown hair was in beachy waves behind my shoulders.

Taking a deep breath, I touched the gold body chain that overlaid my dress and swung my door open. With every step I took, my dress flowed with my legs. I could hear the fancy music and the chatter downstairs. I began to make my way down, my shoes clicking against the newly cleaned marble stairs. I gave a big smile off when people looked my way, I made sure I looked flirty and charming.

"Everyone, welcome my daughter Aries!" My dad called from the bottom of my stairs. I made my way down and while everyone clapped, and took a step next to my father.

"Hey, where is your son Anakin? I was hoping I could speak to him again" a guest came up and said.

I painfully looked down, as my mother responded. "He's travelling, looking to spot a new student, since Aries was such the prodigy" she laughed.

A familiar voice sent goosebumps down my spine. "Then I hope to see her in action today" an instant smile grew on my face as I turned around. Black hair, amber eyes, the spitting image of his great-grandfather… except without the scar.

"Rei" I exhaled and hugged him.

He laughed as we parted, and looked me up and down. "You looked beautiful, and have you gotten taller?" the twenty year old joked.

"Heels" I simply answered, smiling. I saw the reflection of me in his eyes, my grey eyes stood out.

My father looked over and laughed. "Prince Rei!" he walked over and patted him on the back. I wrapped my arms around his and looked up at the prince. "How's the family going?"

"My mother is busy being the crown princess, Uncle Iroh is in republic city so I don't communicate with him much. My grandmother is under a lot of stress as of lately. She and my great-grandfather, Zuko, have noticed some disappearances in the fire nation. But, Zuko was able to make it today" He explained. I tensed up, looking at my parents. "What?" Rei asked, clueless.

I looked up with sad eyes, "Anakin… isn't on a trip. He was taken around midnight" I told him. I suddenly gasped. "Dad… the performance"

My father looked around, and we, together, spotted Korra, her water tribe clothing stood out of the variety of firebenders and earthbenders. My father waved her over. She came and asked "You need me?"

"We need a favor" my mother told her. "Anakin, as you know, won't be able to do the dance. So please, could you do it with Aries?" she asked.

"Uhh…" Korra thought about it for a second. "Sure?"

I smiled at her "thank you" I looked over at Rei now "Rei, Avatar Korra. Avatar Korra, Prince Rei" I grinned.

Rei gave a small bow to her. "Your past life, Aang, was a great service to our nation." He told her. "I better find my great-grandfather. I'll see you later Aries" he said as he kissed my cheek. "And it was a pleasure to meet you Avatar Korra"

"Your dating the Fire Nation Prince?" Korra asked me.

I grinned at her "Don't think I don't know what's going on between you and Asami" I told her and walked off.

. . .

Korra and I struck out into the last pose. Applause filled the room when we finished. Suddenly, screams filled the room. My head whipped around wildly to find the source. The screams were soon muffled and I saw my parents among the victims. I saw old styled Dai Li uniforms. They wore gloves made of rock, I froze. "Hand over the girl and no one will get hurt" one of them spoke, looking directly at me.

I shook my head "not going to happen" I mumbled and immediately chose the ability that needed a lot of skill and focus… blood bending. Although it was illegal, no one would suspect I was doing it, and in this case I would think it would be acceptable. I slowly twisted my hand, and balled it into a fist. A large blast of pain raced through my body from my neck. The electrified kali sticks dug into the sides of my neck and I screamed out in pain.

My knees buckled under me and I collapsed on the floor. Still conscious, I dug my nails into the marble floor, gritting my teeth because of the pain. Another set of kali sticks dug into the sides of my sides and pumped electricity through my body. I took a deep breath, and relaxed my whole body. I embraced the energy, and stopped screeching. I looked up, to see all of the benders at the party in metal cuffs, I could only guess it was pure platinum. Korra aggressively and continuously tried to wriggle away but to no prevail. "Please stop Korra. They might hurt her even more" My father wearily said.

Once I had absorbed the electricity for me to feel like I was going to explode, I reached out and my hand latched onto an ankle. For a brief moment pain shot through my arm, and reached out to the Dai Li warrior. Electricity pulsed through him and he fell to the floor, unconscious. I twisted my body and rocked back on my shoulders, and my legs went into the air and my feet struck the chest of the Dai Li.

The man fell back and I pushed with my hands, jumping into the air and landing on my feet. With energy still in me, I grasped his shoulder and sent a shock through him. A hand grabbed my hair and I spun around, pushing my hand on the warrior's chest and sent a short pulse though his body. I ripped the engine powering the kali sticks off the unconscious bodies and shorted out the equipment. All of the electricity I had left in me was gone.

I slammed my foot into the ground and squeezed my eyes shut. My hands were in fists and I pressed my knuckles together. I ripped my hands apart, fixating on the very, very, very few imperfections in the platinum. I heard screeching of metal and I opened my eyes, all of the benders were free. I saw my dad lean over to Korra and whisper something to her.
