(Rose's outfit)

Grueling, painful training is all Rose can do. She has to, that is. Even though she has no exact memories of the Firelord, she tends to be weary of him.

Punch. Swipe. Dodge. Weave.

The Firelord watches his daughter spar. He laughs, walking up to her. Rose flinches when he pats her softly on the head.

"Much better than the last time I saw you. The Fire Nation will finally be successful!" Rose's father booms. Her unnatural, purple gaze stares blankly at the ground.

Instead of Rose's usual attire, she wore something quite different. Something only fit for a Fire Nation princess. Her straight, golden hair loosely draped down her mid back. Almost army like clothing covered her body.

"To test your abilities, I will assign you an Agni Kai with my most skilled General," muses the Firelord. Rose nods curtly, only knowing how to obey orders.

----Agni Kai Showdown (Rose VS. General Li)----

Rose gets into her fighting stance, glaring at her foe with almost a horrifying determination. General Li seems almost surprised, not knowing he was fighting with a little girl to the death.

Nathan is forced to watch in the stands, his eyes wide with terror. Someone yells for the fight to begin, and Rose unleashes her power. She could've easily defeated the man with her shadow ability and other elements, but this was duel only for fire.

Dodge. Weave. Punch. Swipe. Pinned down. Kill.

But something distracts her, making her hesitate to punch the fire at the man she just pinned. A yell from the crowd stops her. A boy in dismay watches, struggling against his escorts.

Nathan....

SNAP!

"Y- you're Nathan's father. Correct?" I croak.

"How do you know my son?" He asks. He has no idea his son is watching.

"I won't kill you," I murmur, releasing him. His eyes widen in confusion and shock. I glare defiantly at my father in the stands.

"I won't ever stop fighting you. I will never fully be your puppet," I growl, loudly enough for everyone to hear. I blast of fire is sent for my head, I dodge just in time. Nathan's father took advantage on my mercy.

SNUP!

Rose's eyes light up in the icy purple once more. She lights her hands up with fire, ready to attack and finish this.
