Who am I without you?

Lets Go Out With A Bang!

The sound of a plate shattering echoed through the house. "Crap!" Kya yelled from the kitchen.

"Are you okay?" Ayani shouted from the bathroom.

"Yeah, totally fine!" She yelled back. Kya's hand was bleeding from a broken shard that had scrapped her.

Great just add that to my list of injuries this week, she thought to herself as she rinsed the blood off the palm of her hand and began picking the broken pieces off the floor.

"You know the plates go on the table, not the floor right?" Ayani said as she was trying to tie back the messy top of her blond, almost white hair.

Kya scoffed. "Haha you're so funny". Her wife's sarcasm was not welcome this morning. Lack of sleep and the throbbing pain in her neck was making her crabby at best. Not that it was Ayani's fault, so she shouldn't be too harsh with her.

She finished cleaning up the floor and leaned her back against the counter. "So when are we starting?"

"Spirits Kya, can I at least eat breakfast before you rush me out of the house?" Ayani rolled her eyes. "Some of us can't just wake up with as much energy as you". She walked over to Kya and kissed her cheek. "Let alone wake up looking as beautiful as you, it must be nice".

"I have to admit, it is a gift I have been blessed with." She shrugged. "It runs in the family. If you ever meet my mother you'll understand."

"I plan on eventually meeting your parents. All I know is that your mother is southern water tribe and that your father is a councilman in some big city". She said, brushing a piece of Kya's brown hair behind her ear. "We shouldn't stay here forever when you actually have a family that misses..." She paused for a moment noticing the bandage on her wife's neck that was tinted slightly with pink blood.

Crap.

"Okay, I know you're mad, but hear me out." Kya said as Ayani's loving look turned quickly into a scowl.

"Thats why you didn't want to wake me up! Spirits Kya! I could have taken care of this for you last night!" She scolded the younger woman as she pulled back the bandage to asses the injury. "How did you even manage to slice yourself like this?!"

"Well I was practicing some moves and an icicle got caught up...well I'm sure you get the rest". Kya sighed.

Ayani reached over to the sink and got some water to heal Kya. "Wait a minute..." she said as she laid her hands over the wound, pushing the glowing water against the opening. "What exactly were you 'practicing' out there?" Her eyes narrowed as she watched Kya divert her eyes to the closest wall.

"A snow tornado..." she said quietly, afraid to look at her.

She was quiet for a moment, mostly out of disbelief for what she just heard and partially because she was trying to focus through her frustration on healing her. She was able to close the gash enough that it could finish healing on its own without scarring, placing the now red water into the sink. She sighed and turned back to look at Kya. "We start in 10 minutes...Don't be late."

With that, Ayani walked to the front door, put her boots on, and slammed the door shut behind her.

Well, this was going to be a fun session.

She went to the bathroom, tied her hair up in its usual fashion, and left the house already feeling defeated.

Ayani was in the middle of the snow covered field stretching her legs when Kya showed up. She stood about 15 feet away from her partner and stretched out her arms.
