Katara nodded. "Those are pretty out there names, but you're right. Bellatrix is a pretty interesting name too, although it makes me think of a poisonous plant for some reason." It really did sound like one for some reason.
"Aren't any what?" Katara asked? She couldn't hear Luna's thoughts, so she got an incomplete thought spoken aloud she couldn't begin to interpret. "But yes, firebending is different. While our movements are fluid and like dancing, firebending is quick and precise, with very sharp movement. Its enough to take somebody's eye out, to get close to a firebender."
Katara remembered how Aang had burned her initially in his first foray at firebending by accident. It was also the same day she discovered she could heal with water too. But she wouldn't allow any defending of the Firelord, and her face showed it. "Aang's mission is to protect the people of our world and restore balance. Firelord Ozai's was to set the earth nation on fire and make people fear him! If you had seen him on the day of Sozin's comment, his maliciousness would be unmistakable. The only justifying he needs is crushing others to serve his own selfish principals. There isn't anything good about upsetting the balance of a world and people's homes and lives and families just you could reign supreme. That's just...evil!"
Katara took a breath. She hated sounding so angry at Luna, but the war was a sore spot...she'd lost her mother, Jet and almost lost Aang because of it.
"But I do agree with you about THIS war. We have no idea who's right or who's wrong, and I want to get to the bottom of it before I do anything. I don;t turn my back on people who need me, and that includes people on this ship, but if we're being manipulated, I want no part in it."
Katara nodded. "Yeah. We all leaned on each other when we needed to, and kicked each others butt when we had to. That just comes with being balanced, I guess."
