Chapter 2
Explaining myself
I was born right here in this hut my grandmother would tell me, the thought of that just makes me shiver. Don't ask why it's complicated. Anyways my mother had died in childbirth and it was said that my father ran off the day he found out my other was with child. I've asked all around whom my father was but people just turn their heads or walk away while whispering. It bugged me for along time to tell you the truth, seeing kids with they're families complete often made me jealous. But my grandmother told me that jealousy leads to hate and hate leads to destruction. She told me that when I was ten, and I knew that she was right.
Even though grandmother may not know what day it is most of the time she still pretty wise. But she did however remember the day I had first waterbended successfully. Though it was forbidden for a female to waterbend here my grandmother had still taught me. She has been rebellious that way since she was a teenager, she was taught by my grandfather. I have almost been caught on several occasions by Master Pakku and the Chief himself.
Yue, though had caught me before… yes the chief beautiful white haired daughter had caught me. She was quite fascinated though, she promised to keep my secret as long as she could watch me practice every chance she got. This has been going on since we were eleven years old, saying that were friends is an understatement. We were the inseperatable best friends. But I haven't seen her around lately… who could blame her she's a freaking princess!
Anyways that's pretty much the only people I know out of the whole city. Let explain what I look like now. My skin tone is two shades lighter than the traditional watertribe person. My hair is down to my lower waist and is a jet black which adds to my standing out in he crowd. My eyes are the shade blue of the ocean but have an amber ring around my pupil. Also I wear spring type clothes in frostbite condition weather it just doesn't seem to bother me as much as it would another person.
I usually wear fighting type clothes opposed to the dresses hat other girls seem to wear. So as you can tell I'm pretty different from the rest of the village. I just wish that my life would be more exciting and adventurous. How would you feel if you were kept inside an icy fortress with nothing to look at but water, ice, and snow?
Authors Note: Next Chapter is going to mainly focus on her birthday and Zuko's arrival to the North Pole. REVIEW PLEASE!
