“In terms of being a sly and cunning manipulator, you are way below me, little sister.” Azula laugh maniacally as she let out a razor sharp blue fire from within her fingertips, she slowly lower it to meet the neck of her little sister, “I guess, nice try, good luck in the next life--”
“ Argh! Not today!” Kiyi summoned all of her power to let go of Azula's grasp, she ran toward one of the rolled tapestries and burned the ribbon that held it together. As the banner unrolled Kiyi quickly grabbed it to catapult herself toward the ceiling.
Azula quickly jets herself toward where Kiyi is standing, but Kiyi yanks the banner off and throws it on Azula, throwing her off balance and covered in thick drape. While Azula tried to burn her way out of the drape, Kiyi positioned herself on the opposite side of the altar.
Azula finally saw Kiyi in the eyes, she took a deep breath and summoned a pillar of blue fire. As it reaches the ceiling Azula bends it to fall across the altar aiming almost hitting Kiyi's side.
“ You see the difference between us, dear sister? This is why you will never be one of us!” Azula roars as she keeps summoning pillars upon pillars of burning fire.
Dodging the blue fire that relentlessly come after her Kiyi regain her bravery and bark back, “but there’s reason why I’m here and you live among the shadow, isn’t that right, Azula”
“Ha, foolish, this palace is my playground!’ Azula put one of her pillars into a sheet of thin fire blade, advancing it forward toward her overwhelmed sister.
“You can own the palace for sure,” Kiyi lunged herself forward using her own fire to cut through Azula blue fire, “ but never the heart of the people within it!”
