"NICE TRY, PUPIL Sangok. A couple more years and you might be ready to fight a sea sponge" Master Pakku said sarcastically as he unfroze the ice surrounding Sangok.
Meiluna chuckled under her breath as Sangok returned to his spot in defeat.
"Princess Meiluna," Pakku looked to the girl who sat to the side, "Why don't you go next?"
Meiluna looked at him in shock. It wasn't as though she were a terrible bender. In fact, it was the opposite. She could move with perfect refinement and precision. Almost too textbook and predictable. But her greatest weakness was the force with which she attacked with.
Meiluna had always first and foremost been a healer. Hurting others was not something she ever intended on doing.
While Pakku's students had viewed waterbending as a means of survival and fighting, Meiluna relied heavily on disarming and slowing down her opponent. She viewed it as an art form, her movements free of aggression.
And Pakku thought this would be her downfall.
Meiluna reluctantly stood up in front of Katara.
"Go easy on me?" Meiluna asked with an innocent smile.
Katara shook her head with a laugh before she instantly sent a stream of water straight towards Meiluna. She easily moved out of the way, staying light on her feet.
Katara brought back the water she shot, splitting it into two separate streams, aiming for either side of Meiluna. The Princess extended her arms out, freezing the water before it could reach her. Katara took this opportunity to create multiple icicles to send her way. Meiluna noticed quickly and raised her arms to create a shield of ice to protect herself.
As the ice shattered from the impact of Katara's attack, Meiluna bent down, placing a hand to the ground, sending crystals of ice to grow around Katara's feet, slowly moving all the way up to trap her entire body. Meiluna let out a sigh of relief as she thought the fight was finally over, but Katara managed to burst out of the ice, using a water whip to capture Meiluna.
"Meiluna, you are a worthy opponent" Master Pakku praised as Katara released the Princess.
Meiluna smiled brightly.
He turned to face Katara,
"You've advanced more quickly than any student I've ever trained"
Katara looked up happily at her teacher.
"You have proven that with fierce determination, passion and hard work, you can accomplish anything," Master Pakku continued as he turned to look at Aang who appeared to lay on the ground, playing with Momo.
