Tapping of feet against the concrete floors. Shallow breaths. Distant screams. The hiss of flames burning flesh. 

That was all that Liara could hear as she hastily ran through the temple corridors.

An explosion rumbled against the cliffside of the Air Temple, a burst of heated vermillion lit in the distance as bison crooned and cried from fear.

She just needed to make it to her bison. She just needed to get to Diki and she'd be out of here. The bison was her only hope. Her only escape from imminent death.

The sharp, charred scent of burning skin burned her nostrils and she gagged, almost tripping over her own feet when she caught a glimpse of a monk being seared alive by a firebender. He screamed bloody murder, begging for the spirits to save him as his vocal cords burned away.

Tears blurred her vision as she kept running, trying to quicken her pace. She couldn't stop. Not for anyone.

She turned the corner and....

Dead end.

Her breath hitched as her heart sank.

Maybe it was her instant karma for being selfish. Maybe it was her fate. To die like a martyr by the hands of an above-average powerful firebender thanks to that spirit forsaken comet.

"I've got you now, you little rat." the firebender growled as he stalked towards the thirteen-year-old girl like a predator closing in on it's prey.

Liara shrieked and backed up into the windowless wall, her brown eyes darting everywhere. She was desperately trying to come up with a plan. She couln't escape with him still in her way. The window was behind him, but if she passed him, she'd be burned alive with the rest of her people.

Think, Li! What would Monk Nora do? What would Aang do?

As a flame the size of Liara's head lit up in the firebender's hand, the tattooed girl gave up for a millisecond.

For that millisecond, she thought of her friends in the other temples. Were they in the same boat as her or were they already dead? Aang. Meiji. Chiyo. Would they escape?
