Ozana: thank you justafan. And just so you know I hate this chapter. I hate it with more of a passion then I have hated anything else in my life. Just a heads up.
Something was wrong--not just wrong dead wrong--I could feel it not only in my mind, but in my whole body, I could almost hear it. I was running as fast as I could, all that was flowing out of my mind was that I had to get away, I didn’t know where and I didn’t know how, I just had to get away from what ever was chasing me, but I couldn’t. I felt drawn to it. I felt like I couldn’t survive without it, but I kept pushing. My lungs burned and my head throbbed. I fell to the ground stunned. I couldn’t get up, I was stuck and I felt it coming closer. Suddenly I felt tiered. I had only felt like this once before, and I didn’t want it revisit that time. I struggled more, feeling the tingly-ness of Da-ja-vu coming on me. I got up finally and started as fast as I could until I hit a wall. I bounced off of it and fell on my back, stunned. I glanced over my shoulder, and stood up as fast as I could. I felt the wall, it was deadly cold. like an ice cube that never melts. My fingers traveled along the perfectly smooth surface. A line appeared. A door! I knew if I went in, bad things would be happening, I knew that if I opened the door, I would get away from this evil only to find another and it would probably be worse.
I looked back, I could physically see it coming closer. I would take my chances. I fumbled with the smooth surface of the door. I couldn’t find a handle. My movements became more erratic. I was desperate. My hand hot protruding metal. I tried to turn it, even though I knew it wasn’t going to open. I began pulling uselessly on it. I could feel the warm breath of the thing on my neck. The door disappeared, leaving me to only see smooth metal. I was frozen. It was touching my shoulder. I heard a long low growl.
I was shaking, but also scared stiff. I began quick earthbending movements and a hole appeared in the floor! I jumped through, away from the it, to land down on my feet, feeling completely refreshed and standing next to my mother in the last place I wanted to be. I was on the Agni Kai battle Arena. It all came back and hit me. I was in a dream--but not just any dream--I was in a reoccurring nightmare. I knew exactly what was going to happen. It happened every time, and even--like now--when I knew I was in a dream, I couldn’t change it, everything happened exactly as it did on the day it actually happened. I would have to fight my mother again, and worst of all I would have to lose.
I didn’t want to think of what happened in the end, I was going to fight harder then ever to make it happen the way I wanted it to, or in the least I was going to try to wake up. Suddenly the dream came to life, I heard everyone creaming for my mother, she was going to win and even before the fight began, they knew it. My head, of it’s own will, looked out into the crowd and immediately spotted Anzon. He was in the front row looking strait at me as if to say ‘don’t do this’. He didn’t want me to fight her, he wanted me to be safe, but it was something I thought I had to do, but I didn’t want to do it any more.
I know now I should have listened to him and just left, but no, I wanted my honor. I wanted my mother to love me as I loved her, and respect me. That on it’s own was a big mistake. The Agni Kai was starting. I liked the beginning part, because I was the one winning, or at least it seemed like I was. The first thing we did was circle each other, clockwise, 3 times. Each circle was 22 steps, and on the last step of the last one I struck with a fireball to the stomach and she gracefully side-stepped and shot lightning at my head. I ducked only to roll forward and shoot a bolt of lightning at her legs. She jumped over it and I shot a fireball at her in the air. She broke through it and almost didn’t land her jump. She was right in front of me, looking up into my eyes We were a foot away, and I was 3 inches taller then her. I looked down and for that one second, I felt like I would win. This lasted for a very short period of time as she stuck her finger in my leg and set me on fire. I fell back onto the ground and she stepped closer.
“Didn’t I tell you never to hesitate?” She asked in a cold angry voice. I didn’t speak, it would be using up extra energy She shot lightning at my head, I rolled out of the way, but it still got some of my hair. I smelt the foul smell of it and put it out. I felt something tugging at me. I thought at the time it was anger and controlled it, It was sucking up energy, but she had said that anger made us week, so I hid it. I got up and she immediately shot lightning at chest. I moved out of the way, but it still scorched my arm. I wanted to cut my arm off just to get away from the pain, but there was no time for that. As soon as I got to any one place I would have to get to another. I spent the next 5 minutes dodging fire and shooting back. I was beginning to get tiered, but not just from the battle, the more I fought the more I was being tugged at by that anger like thing. I know now that IT was the Avatar state, and that It would have helped, but then, I was ignorant of it.
I jumped up into the air. I hated this part. I would be hit dead on and fall to the ground, still alive and functioning, but extremely hurt and then the inevitable would happen. Seconds felt like decades and it could have only been 10 seconds that I laid there. I willed myself to wake up, begged myself to knock out of it, but that wasn‘t going to happen. I tried fighting against my body and dream. I did not want to do what I was about to do. I heard my mother she was shooting, and in even slower motion I shot at the sound. Unfortunately my shot would never hit the right target, though it would hit something. I saw him fall to the ground. I had hit him instead of my mother.
“ANZON!!!” I yelled as loud as I could, “NOOOO!!” I was crying as I ran up to him. I wanted to collapse both from the battle, the sorrow, and the Avatar state pulling at me. I was weak and on the verge of it taking over, but I had to push forward. In what seemed like a million years I ran to him. My mother laughed her evil laugh. He took his last breath and said, “I’ll always love you”. He was dead in my arms.
“See what love gets you?” she asked. I laid down on the field, willing her not to kick me. She kicked me in the stomach and I stayed down. She had won, . “pathetic that you would turn out like your father,” She laughed a little, “What have I been telling you?” and that is when I always woke up, when she was in the middle of a sentence.
I awoke and wanted to cry. I opened my eyes to see everyone sitting around me.
“What?” I asked in what I hopped was a scary voice, but knew sounded scared and like I wanted to cry.
“You just screamed” Sanaki said.
“Really loudly” Toph said. She looked angry. Actually all of them looked angry to some degree
“Yeah SO?” I asked, “I’m fine aren’t I?” I asked them.
“Come on, I knew this was a waist of time” Katara said. They all left except for Sokka and Teroh.
I closed my eyes and when I opened them, Sokka was gone, Teroh was still there.
“Go to bed” I said. I opened my eyes expecting him gone. He’d been waiting for me to do this.
“Geese, mom,” he said.
“I’m not your mom” I said, “I’m worse then your mom, I’m not afraid to do this” I shot some fire at him, but it just came out in sparks.
“heheh” he laughed, “I’m happy she’s afraid to do that, it’s a fire hazard” more often then not my firebending wasn’t quite right after the dream. I cursed myself.
“So what were you screaming at?” He asked.
“None of your business.” I said.
“You know, it always amazes me how many problems you have.” He said. How dare he!
“Oh yeah, what kind of problems do you think I have?” I challenged.
“Well, there’s the trust problem you have.” He started.
“And how do you think I got that problem?” I asked. He stayed silent. “You don’t know squat” I said stepping closer to him. He cowered a little, then straitened up and stepped up to me. He was at least 5 inches taller then me. We were now chest to chest, as if we were going to start a fight.
“Do you have a problem with me?” he asked.
“Yes” I answered looking up to him. I bent a pillar under me to make me a foot over him, “And what do you have say to it?” I asked.
“I say you should get over it pretty fast, seeing as to I’m the only teacher you have at the time being” That was a good point.
“I’ll have the airbender” I said, “and besides I’m pretty sure they’ll forgive me in time” even if I don’t forgive them, I added in my head. He bent the rocks so that he was higher then me.
“and what about waterbending?” he asked.
“what’s her name could teach me” I said indicating the canibal lady. She said something to this I just didn’t want to know what.
“No she can’t, she’s only a bloodbender” he said.
“I’m done with this conversation” I said going back to my original height”
“Because you can’t win?” He asked.
“No, I could win anything I want, I’m just tiered. good night” I laid down and shut my eyes. He nudged me a couple times with Earthbending.
“Quit it” said. I was going to sleep and there was nothing they could do about it. My eyes shot open of their own will. “Close my eyes” I yelled. They closed less then gently. “thank you” I said, but I wasn’t going to sleep and I knew it. I waited up the night until dawn, when I finally fell asleep.
