The Dream Bender, Book one; Finding Yasmine

Book One: Air~ Chapter 1: The motive

"Yuki! Yuki! Yuki! YUKI" The thunder hit Nia once more before the rain started to pour. All loud and heavy, it keep going and going, not planing to stop. If it doesn't stop eventually it would possibly cause a flood, then we have to get the best waterbenders from around the world. That would take a long time and it'll just end up being like what happened 5 years ago with the Airbenders. "Yuki! Yuki please come save me. You love your little sister right?" Of course I did, but after what happened I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive myself. My parents always told me it wasn't my fault. Then who was it? Other than the bigger problem, the fire benders. I need to go though, out of my dreaming/thinking place. This safe space would always here, just for me. 

"Yasmine!" I say waking up drenched with sweat. I looked around my dark bedroom, to sense some type of closure by seeing the old memories. No matter what I said to myself or what others said to me I couldn't shake the thought of what happened to her was all my fault. My bedroom was semi-messy with some books toppling each other falling off little by little, and my drawer with pictures of the past. With my ice shard crown, ah..I remember that day. I rubbed the sweat from my forehead with my elbow and head back slowly on the pillow. Remember what sensei Ayoshi told me, dream bending is kind of similar to air bending you have to detach yourself from worldly problems and concerns. Air bending is about finding peaceful ways to problems, similar to dream bending when wanting to have a nice, warm dream. I could feel myself almost reaching that dream until Yasmine face popped in mind. I could feel the tears about to drop like a waterfall, forming in my eyes going to plop down to prove my weakness. Maybe now I should start using some spiritual enlightenment. I looked over to my dresser by my bed and there is a mini statue of Monk Gyatso. I grab it and put it on my chest. This would definitely help right? Eventually I feel asleep and was able to have a nice dream of me sitting on the sand by myself, and the water moving back and fourth nice and slow. Usually I don't use my powers unless I need it to my advantage.

The next morning... I wake up and stretch. "Ahh, another day." Yesterday last night was slowly leaving my mind, that was not new that happened almost every night ever since the accident. I get off my bed and look in the mirror, and see my long white hair in a mess, and bags under my big blue eyes. Each of my features completes my brown skin. Me and my sister always been told we looked like Princess Yue, what happened to her was so sad. I open the top drawer to pull out the brush to try to contain my messy hair. Later on I go to eat breakfast and say good morning to my parents. It's such a weird thing, me and my sister got our white hair from nothing.  None of our parents have white hair. My mom has short black hair and small brown eyes, and my dad had short brown hair and blue eyes. I got my eyes from our dad, my sister from my mom. "Mom can I have some chusa?" Chusa is kind of a food me and my sister made up, we boil some noodles and chicken then we cook some seaweed to put on top, after we put our homemade sauce on. I look around to see neither of my parents around. "Mom?" It sounded so quiet, maybe they went out to do something? Usually they are here, and they leave a note to tell me where there going if they leave. Yeah a note! I look around the counter and on the fridge if they left a note. There was no note. Okay Yuki calm down, I just pulled out pots to make the food, and tried to think of the best, then I heard a knock. I put down the pot on the stove and left to go answer it. It was a guy about in his seventy's

"Can I help you good sir?" He sighs sadly and shakes his head. "No can I help you?" I was confused and a little irritated. Then the news came on me like 10 pounds of bricks. "Your parents were found dead floating in water under frozen ice." When I heard that all the anger boiled up inside me started to steam and was going to rise. This is a dream right? My parents aren't dead right? Right? I was more angry then sad so I cried angry tears, then I just collapsed on the floor, sadness finally reaching me. Tears kept going and going and going, it was like a waterbender fairy was there just water bending all over me. Then it all went black, I was not just laying in a black world, and it was just me empty and empty with nothing here. I was all by myself...No one to comfort me, nobody to confide to. Just nothing, absolutely nothing. Then I felt a whisper in my ear, a female voice. I could barley anything she was saying. It was all inaudible, every little thing she said. This felt more like a nightmare, because it just keep going. As soon I said those words in my mind, I see someone on the floor with me. She looks just like me but a eviler version. She has to be one or two years older than me, she has dark gray hair similar to my white hair and small purple and blue eyes. I was frozen, I couldn't and didn't want to move. I just wanted to stay in this place of emptiness forever and ever.
