Pro-bending Arena.
Republic City.
9:30 PM.
19 days before the Winter Solstice.
It was one of the biggest nights for Pro-bending of the entire year. Crowds arrived in the audience stands in droves, tonight being the final major match of the season. Overhead lights hovered over the probending stage, illuminating the blue and red metal brightly as everything else was flushed out in darkness in contrast. Once enough people were packed into the stands an announcer roared into prominence as the radio system kicked up.
"Hello and welcome citizens of Republic City as well as visitors here to enjoy an exciting match of pro-bending! Now, for those unfamiliar with the sport two teams face-off in a battle of bending with the main goal being to knock the other team out of the ring! There are four rounds lasting four minutes each, if time runs out and both teams are standing with all three members a tie breaker occurs, and if time runs out outside of that the team with the lowest number of benders lose the round!"
"Before we get this show on the road, please enjoy the musical stylings of The Koala Otters' own Elle Chesali! A competitor in tonight's match that offered her voice for the event!"
In the center of the stage stood the short haired firebender dressed in red, microphone in hand. The crowd cheered and clapped as the woman was turned into the main focus of the pre-match chatter. "Thank you, everyone, for showing up tonight to watch my opposition get their arse kicked.", she paused to give a gentle smirk. "I hope that you all can enjoy this song, I know I do."
With that all but one stagelight went out, a white beam pointing directly at Elle as everything else was blanketed in shadow. Instruments began to pick up through the radio as a raising tempo could be heard. The woman tapped her foot in sync with the beats and started to sing her song.
"From where you are, you see the smoke start to arise where they play cards. And you walk over, softly moving passed the guards.
The stakes are getting higher, you can feel it in your heart.
He calls you bluff, he is the ace you never thought he played that much.
And now it's more than all this cards you want to touch.
You never know if winning this could really be enough.
Take a look beyond the moon, you see the stars.
And when you look around you know the room by heart.
I have never dreamed it
Have you ever dreamed a night like this?
I cannot believe it, I may never see a night like this.
When everything you think is incomplete starts happening when you are cheek to cheek, could you ever dream it?
I have never dreamed, dreamed a night like this.
How many times have I been waiting by the door to hear these chimes?
To hear that someone debonaire has just a arrived?
And opened up to see my world before my eyes?
That silhouette creates an image on the night I can't forget.
It has the scent of something special.
I can't rest.
If I resist temptation, oh I know for sure that I will lose the bet.
I walk away and suddenly it seems I'm not alone.
In front of me he stands, I stop, before he goes.
