Hate
Lien glared up at the man in front of her. She knew him, not well, but she definately knew him. He matched her glare with one of his own. Gold and blue. Fire and water. If she were anyone other than the princess then she knew that there would be less glaring and more firebending, but she was the princess and therefore he restrained himself. Barely.
"We meet again, little fish." he said, Lien's nose wrinkled at the less than friendly nickname "Well...not so 'little' anymore."
Lien's hands curled into fists behind her back. He was the former commandor Zhao's youngest son. The only one to follow his father into the navy. He was also one of Lien's greatest personal enemies. He hated her because she was a waterbender and he hated her mother because she was Water Tribe and a waterbender too, although he kept this well hidden from her, he also happened to be Sozu's firebending instructor.
They stood glaring at each other for a long moment. An eighteen year old man and a ten year old girl. A firebender and a waterbender.
"Lien!" the moment was broken by the arrival of her brother "Lien! Mom was wondering where you were. She's really annoyed because you snuck off with Mei Li and we've been looking for you all ove-- Hello, Sifu Rizu, I didn't see you."
Lien's eyes focused on a spot on the ground, she wondered if Rizu tolerated her brother because he was a firebender and heir to the throne and disliked her for her being the opposite. It didn't matter. She hardly ever saw him anyway but the hate never would leave completely, from either of them.
