The False avatar

Chapter 17 A lesson taught in blood

Katara(pov)
She moves forward and moving her sai's with powerful explosive force sending dozens of powerful stabs at the test dummy. Before taking a step back and sending a powerful stab straight at the head.

"Good, you're movements are more refined. But you still need to practice on putting some space between your opponents and learning how to use you're sai's in a defensive manner." Shoto commented as he looked at the ripped apart dummy. "But for what it's worth you have made significant head away both in terms of non bending combat. And you're waterbending has been keeping progress with the avatar's." Shoto told her as he looked with almost proud expression.

"Take a 30 minute warm up. I am gonna see how much did you learn in today's text ?" He instructed her. Before leaving her in the room.

Sokka(pov)
"Weren't we suppose to continue on with our spars ?" Sokka asked as he walked behind her. "No need for that, you progress allowed me to move on to the next level." Azula replied. "What afraid that I will beat you this time ?" Sokka goated. "No I just don't want wreck your pride again. Seeing though I made you bark like lowly dog in our first fight." Azula remarked at him.

"HEY ! I almost beat you last time." Sokka retorted. "By beat, do you mean not being a weakling and actually putting fight that ended 21 minutes flat." Azula said calmly with hint of arrogance on her tone. "Whatever where are we going anyways ?" Sokka asked feeling insulted.

"We shall see." Azula said while giving him a side glare. Now this, this made Sokka feel a shiver to down his spine. That caused the firebender chuckle slightly. If sokka thought that she was diabolical before, and he's absolutely terrified on what she is going to do to him right now.

Azula stopped for a moment and then kicked a specfic tile three times. Following that the ground began to shake. As a doorway opened up, with her right hand raised a small blue flame was conjured. "Shall we ?" Azula asked. Sokka gulped a lump in his throat. And followed her down the door way.

Shoto(pov)
Shoto observed as the two took their stances against each other. "Remember in this battle airbending is prohibited, no dirty tricks or cheats. The battle ends when either one of you is kicked out of the red circle. Are the conditions clear ?" Shoto explained to them. "Yes." They both answer at the same time.

"Begin." Shoto instructed. Katara made the first move sending out a water whip. Aang blocked the whip and used the water to make daggers of ices. He then hurriled straight at katara. Who raised an ice shield to protect herself. In that spilt instant, water rushed to Aang's feet and excelerated him at a blink of an eye. He punched through the ice shield and jumped over katara. Before back flipping while grabbing her by the hair sending her straight out of the arena.

Before she could be sent out of the circle, she summoned a wave to her beckoning call from the pond. Which she used to surf out of the arena. She then released many tentacles all of which extended and tried to grab the air bender. Who remained on the defensive, then suddenly one of the tentacles managed to grab a hold on Aang. The avatar yelped as he was dragged and slammed onto the ground repeatedly before throwing him. Aang summoned a wave of water that impeded him from leaving the bound of the arena.

He then slammed his foot to the ground. And the previously summoned wave came rushing forward at katara as it turned into pillars of ice. Katara moved her hands created a sharp spining wheel of ice that she raised over her head and expanded into massive saw. That she sent flying straight at the oncoming pillar of ice. The saw tore through the ice like weak paper. Until it came straight at Aang who raised his hands to block it. But was sent crashing out the bounds of the arena.

"By the conditions of the battle, katara wins." Shoto told them. He walked forward to Aang and helped up on his feet. "Aang are you okay ? I didn't mean to hurt badly. Do you need me to heal you ?" Katara said worryingly. "No I am fine katara." Aang with wide smile. "You sure, you leg doesn't look that good." Katara said to him. "It's gonna take more than one bad leg to keep an avatar down." Aang said as he tried to take a step forward and then wobbled on his legs for abit before falling down straight to the ground face first.
