"Are you sure of this, Yue?"

The white-haired girl smiled, clasping her hands together before she reached and took her siblings hands in hers. "I am sure of it, (Y/N)! I will cover for you, do not worry."

They smiled, kissing their sister's cheek before standing at pulling their coat around themselves. "I'll be back by midnight, I absolutely promise."

Yue giggled and nodded, pushing her sibling to the window and as they scaled from the small ledge, she buried pillows under their blankets and even fluffed the pillow for the head to make it seem to have hair. She prided herself on her handy work and lied down in her own bed, tucking herself under her covers and falling asleep.

(Y/N) ran through the streets, jumping over the canals and stopping at the wall.  They brought themselves over the wall in a water bubble (very specific) and dropped, freezing a makeshift floor under them. They reached down and brought up a pull of water, bringing it over their head and around their body, freezing the water into shards as they threw their arms to the side. They removed their coat and first layer, leaving them in their underwear and pants.  They continued the simple waterbending techniques before moving to the more sophisticated moves Master Pakku had taught his most recent class.

Sensing that someone was on the opposite side of the wall, (Y/N) grabbed their clothes and ducked into the water, pushing the water from themselves and keeping them hidden.  Seeing one of the boys from Pakku's class now on the wall, they dressed quickly (in the bubble, which was difficult) and sneaked past the boy, entering the Northern Tribe walls by bending the ice under the water just so they could fit and running down the streets, back to the Royal home.

When they finally approached their home, they climbed back up to the window.  Yue had been woken by the racket (Y/N) caused when struggling and the princess helped them into the room, ridding their bed of the extra pillows.

"Quick, get changed!"  They stripped and changed to their usual nighttime wear.  They slipped under the covers and Yue tucked them in, kissing their hair and laying down in her own bed.

Yue and I sat in the canoe, the rower bringing us around town.  We both sat properly, our legs tucked beneath us and hands folded on our knees.  Yue had helped me with my hair, fixing it to appear put-together and helping me dress far-more formally than I would prefer to dress.  While we sat in the canoe, a large beast with an arrow on its forehead crossed our path.  Atop the animal were three children—two cute boys and an attractive girl.  I glanced at her without turning my head, alerting no one.

She truly was pretty—she had bright blue eyes and olive skin, similar to Yue.  She wore a large blue coat and her hair was tied back with a bun that continued to a braid, two pieces strung at each side of her face.  She looked at the City with deep adoration, an obvious outsider finally observing the great Northern Water Tribe's home, whatever that means.

I turned my attention to the back of Yue's head, narrowly missing the boy (who looked similar to the pretty girl) gawking at her.  He had run to the tail of their large animal and stood there, staring at Yue as we passed and turned the corner.  I chuckled and Yue turned her head so slightly, her eyebrow cocked and her lips upturned.  "What has you laughing?"

"It seems that newcomer-boy likes you."  "Oh, hush."

A feast was prepared, almost everyone of the Court was sat and awaited for their Chief to speak.  While the start of the feast was prepared, the Chief stood and held his arms out.  "Tonight, we celebrate the arrival of our brother and sister of the Southern Tribe!  And they have brought with them someone very special, someone who many of us believed to have disappeared until now: the Avatar!"
