couldn't think of another title...
anyways, here's another chapter in the long-awaited series, the story of Sanaki...
CHAPTER 5
My gambling life continued, and Saza would often visit and stay for dinner. He was a nice boy, and I liked him. He was my friend. One day however, he appeared, racing towards me, sounding urgent.
“Sanaki,” he said, “you’re in trouble. Look!”
I heard the sound of a piece of paper. I assumed it was about me.
“What is it?” I asked, though he told me I was staring right at it.
“I’m blind, remember?” I said, “So, what’s the problem?”
“This is a wanted poster of you,” he warned, “They’ve named you ‘The Swindler’.”
“Oh, that’s so cool!” I replied, “Let me have that.”
“Okay,” he replied, handing the poster to me. I rolled it up and stuck it in my bag with all my other little gizmos I had accumulated over my lifetime.
“So,” said Saza, “what are you going to do?”
“I’m gonna keep living my life the way I have, Saza,” I replied, “don’t you worry about me. I’ll be fine.”
Therefore, I continued playing games and winning and swindling ignorant suckers out of their cash. However, one time, I was grabbed from behind.
“So you’re “The Swindler”, he said, and showed me to the rest of his gang, holding me by the scruff of my neck. I said nothing.
“I’m just a little blind girl,” I replied innocently, and my plan came into effect. To become truly blind, all I had to do was stop using my firebending sense, so I did.
“Do I need to prove it to you?” I asked, “because what will the court say when they try me—a little blind girl?”
“You have no way of proving it,” they said,
“But I do,” I retorted, “If I wasn’t blind, could I do this?”
I opened my eyes as wide as I could and turned to face the sun. I was able to gaze directly at it without blinking. After all, I really was completely blind.
“You’re a firebender, aren’t you?” one of them said, “there’s no way a blind person could locate the sun so precisely otherwise.”
“You wanna make something of it?” I challenged,
“You,” the leader said, “me, Agni Kai; mid-day;”
“That’s right now,” Saza whispered
“Oh, and bring your boyfriend, so he can watch me crush you. I know you’re The Swindler.”
A few minutes later, I was standing in the middle of an arena. I was surrounded by people. This seemed to be some sort of fight club.
“Ladies and gentlemen,” I heard an announcer boom, “The Mighty Fireball has captured The Swindler; and today they are going to fight, and the reign of The Swindler will be over!”
This was greeted by roaring applause
“That is,” he said, “if The Swindler shows up.”
“Here I am,” I called out as I made my way to the arena,
“That’s her,” The Mighty Fireball said,
“This is the Swindler?” the announcer exclaimed, “This is just a little girl” he paused. He must have seen my eyes. “She’s blind too! Kid, do you realize what you’re getting into?”
“He challenged me,” I replied, “and I accepted.”
This was all that the announcer needed. A few seconds later, he had called for the fight to begin. My senses returned at my command, and I got into a defensive stance. After all, I had created my own unique fighting style of firebending, which I planned to use now.
The Mighty Fireball was pretty good. He was able to spew fire from his mouth like I could, but I noticed he lacked defense and speed—my two specialties. I was able to get right up next to him and start dancing. My dance moves were not only dance moves, but also firebending techniques and a combination of several types of martial arts. I could sense the crowd’s shock when they saw the little blind girl (me) holding her own against their champion. I back flipped through the air and kicked a fireball at him, knocking him down.
“What’s the matter,” I asked, taunting “scared of a blind girl?”
When all was said and done, I ended up completely destroying this guy, without even receiving any damage to myself. His raw power was ousted by my pure speed. His lack of defense was his downfall. I simply laughed. One thing was certain though—I was definitely coming back here.
“If any of you thugs ever want to challenge me again,” I called, “I’ll be glad to answer. You know where to find me.”
I skipped off the field like the little child that I was. I met up with Saza, and we went home.
“So,” said Saza, “the new champion of the Fire Nation Fight Club is a 9-year-old blind girl?”
“I guess so,” I replied, “but don’t worry about me, Saza. I’ve been practicing firebending since I first learned it at 3. I don’t even know what these numbers mean though, since I can’t count. Kai told them to me.”
Saza laughed, “You’re a cute girl, Sanaki,” he said, “and a good friend,” he then gave me a little kiss on my cheek. I moved my hair in front of my face so he wouldn’t see me blushing. This kiss was nothing serious at the time, since we were both little children who knew nothing of attraction at that young age. Nonetheless, the next time I want to an Agni Kai (which would be the next day), he followed. Moreover, for every fight I went to, he was there to watch.
