The War
I was awoken by something that sounded like thunder but three times as louder. I looked over at the clock on my nightstand and saw that it read 1:01 am. I ran into my mom and dads room only to find them gone. I looked out there window and saw nothing but chaos. All the kids were running and hiding, crying and looking for their mom and dads. At this point I began to worry and ran all around the castle looking for my parents. I was about to run out the front door when I was stopped by someone saying my name. I turned around to see Miss Garmell looking at me then she says "Lavina come on lets get you into the cellar where we will be safe," she hold her hand out waiting for me to grab it. I just turned around and ran out the front door. I hear her running behind me "LAVINA" she says "LAVINA PLEASE WAIT ITS NOT SAFE OUT THERE FOR A LITTLE GIRL. YOU COULD GET KILLED." she says. I stop and turn around to see her doubled over and wheezing. "Lets go in the cellar with the rest of the staff we will keep you safe" she says. I just turn and run away.
I had just ran past the fountain when something exploded the fountain. I turned to look and it started snowing, and it was then I knew who was here. I ran out to the field where I saw the Ice people fighting our people. I stood there looking in horror. I looked to the left of me and saw my dad fighting someone and look to the right just in time to see my mom running into the forest being chased by one of the Ice people. I ran into the forest after them. I tried my best to keep up with them but considering I'm just a kid I ended up losing them.
I was running around for about 15 minuets when I hear my mother scream. I followed her screams to the clearing point of our Great Lake. As I got there I saw a man in the clearing with my mother. "What a foolish choice you've made Na'vi" the man say to my mother with a sinister laugh. "Ran all the way in the forest where no one can hear your screams and pleas for help" he says with a grin that sent shivers down my spine. "Why" my mother asks "Why are you doing this. We have been at peace with each other for 3000 years. So why now?? Why break the peace now?" my mother asks. And I now notice the huge gash she has on her stomach that she is holding. Probably Cause by him. "Why, do you really wanna know why? If so ask your husbands mistress. If you make it to that point" and he starts to laughing again.
As he is laughing he plunges a dagger in my mothers heart. I scream and run out from my hiding place and straight to my mother. "Mommy.....Mommy please wake up." I say while shaking her and crying. I look up at the man"Why?" I ask "Why did you kill my mother" I say sobbing. He doesn't say a word he just looks at me with an emotionless face and eyes. He just walks up to my mom and touches her leg. the second he does ice starts to form and she starts to freeze over. I quickly push his hand away hoping that it will stop the affects. to which he says "Its too late for that with one touch I can freeze anyone and there is no way to stop it unless I stop it." he says. With pleading eyes I say "Please stop it please" and all he does is look at me and walks away.
I let out a heart wrenching scream and just cry over my mothers frozen body. I stayed there with my mother until my dad and a group of his men came into the clearing an hour later. My dad walks up to my mom and me and kneels by her. I look at his face and it's bare not anything there I can't even say its emotionless because that itself is an emotion. He just looks like a blank canvas. I touch his arm and he jumps as if he forgot I was there. He then looks at his men and says "Take her back to the castle and make sure she is safe. If anything happens to her you're all dead." The last thing I see as I am being carried away is my dad sitting motionless next to my mom and then they disappear from my sight.
