Chapter 11: Falling apart

Katara
Before the spirit came crashing down, Aang quickly dodged it and rolled over. My eyes grew bigger after seeing the power of the spirits. Their full dark power. Aang got up and took a fighting stance. I got up too and waited to see what his plan was. He glanced over to me and then at the spirit.

„Come on! Get me!" He airbended a gush of air at the spirit to anger it. It grew even bigger and darker.

„Aang, don't!" I yelled as I saw what was about to go down.

„Just go! Help the others, I'll be fine!" He yelled towards me as the spirt charged at him once again. He flew above the spirit and began running in the other direction. I pushed my feelings away and ran in the other direction.

The spirits were attacking the people. I started waterbending and threw it at them. My goal wasn't to anger them, just to drive them away. But anything I seemed to do angered them. I saw Sokka and my dad out of the corner of my eye. They were fighting off some spirits too. Everything was so loud. People were screaming and the spirits were making some sort of noises too. It wasn't pretty.

We did our best to fight them off but they just kept coming. Nothing we did worked. I was getting really tired. I had to keep fighting though, I knew that. After I drove a smaller spirit away, I saw my dad getting thrown to the ground. I bended a large amount of water and with a grunt, threw it at the spirit. It charged at me now and I managed to bend an ice wall around it just in time. My dad got up and walked towards me.

„Thank you." He said rather slowly. I didn't have to respond as we suddenly heard crashing behind us. I quickly turned around and to my surprise, I saw Aang. He was still battling that massive spirit. It was huge now.

They kept getting closer to us as they fought. Aang mostly dodged the spirits attacks. When he didn't bend an element at it, it got bigger. After he dodged another attack, he airbended himself onto a hut.

„They won't listen to me. No matter what I say, I can't figure out why they're so angry." He yelled at us for above, after which he had to jump down to avoid another strike.

„You can't keep dodging their attacks. They're evil, you need to get rid of them!" My dad yelled back at him from where we where standing. We were mid fight too.

„I can't do that. It would just anger them more." He said as he helped a women from a spirit while simultaneously avoiding getting hit by the spirit. He jumped back onto a hut.

„They will destroy the tribe if you don't! You need to make a decision!" Aang gritted his teeth before jumping back down. Another spirt hit him in the ribs and he groaned in pain. He bended away the spirit and grabbed his side. I could feel how much pressure he was under. He let his guard down for just a second and the huge spirit came charging at him.

„Watch out!" I bended a wave of water towards the spirit which knocked it to the ground. Aang looked up to see the spirit growing bigger. It suddenly looks towards me and filled with darkness as it charged towards me with full fource.

„No!" Aang yelled and firebended a huge flame at it. I could barely dodge the spirit and fell to the ground. Aang had accidentally burned my forearm and I winced back at the pain. He saw that and looked at the spirit. His eyes were bloodshot. He looked around the tribe to see the everyone fighting and getting badly hurt. It was chaotic.

„Enough!" His eyes flickered for a moment and he raised himself with a tornado. The turned got bigger and bigger while he was at the tip of it. I held onto the ground as the tornado was so strong. Every spirit began to get sucked into the tornado. The wind was so strong that the biggest spirit was eventually sucked into the tornado too. I looked up to see Aang bending it with his raw power.
