Fire Nation~ Shizu'Agara: Viet Palace
Viet Palace: A large five story castle that is guarded with its single gate and is the home of the Governer of Shizu'Agara. Can only be entered at day, and is guarded by 200+ high ranking firebenders. The only way to enter it would be the large iron gate that held fast every second of the day and night- never leaving a way for an assassin to enter the home of the Governer.
This huge palace is located on the sea side of the port of Shizu'Agara, where an astounding view can be seen from the massive fortifications that were built by the Scarred King a hundred years ago.
Current Governer: Ulu, 'Grim Baron' Onasi

Vladimir Taizen seperated from Kazuki a while back, his primary object was to find the plants, this would be much simpler if He had taken a while to plan this, it was dark, and Taizenn was able to slip past a few guards of the viet Palace, there were many, but they were very much involved in a card game, apparently, they were confident that they're numbers would keep out intruders, Taizen had a narrow brush in with one, but managed to avoid being seen, he stayed hidden behind a ring of bushes in the royal courtyard, he'd stay there, till morning, he needed to get to the inner courtyard, the roses around him were not the petals he needed, not only were these generic roses, but the fire petals, would only contain the properties neccesary for paralyzation, when in full bloom, and the only way for the roses to bloom, was to be around constant heat, otherwise, Growing next to a bonfire, or having a firebending gardener.(I'm not sure.. is that an oxymoron?)Sun Rise. Taizen yawned as the first rays of sunlight reached his face, he had changed his sleeping patterns, and now, he slept with the sun, and rose with the moon, But he knew he could not sleep, not for 24 hours(Sleeping the next morning) He rose from the bushes purposely, walking into the palace quickly, before any one could wonder why he was there, it wasn't more than a few minutes, that he was inside the Viet palace, when he was verbally assaulted, demanding things like ID, Name, Age... etc.(Exit to Viet palace)
"Excuse me sir, but i'm just the Physician sent by the north pole, Ulu has been sick, and need's medical attention, he's been so sick as of late, he's decided to call us for help, we were a bit supicious at first, but decided, that the quarrel of our nations happened so long ago, that we might as well help him." Taizen tried to explain, making various hand movements, of the non-bending variety to pursuade the firebender guard, simple trust-inducing movements, such as the clasped hands of begging, and the open palms of trust, which if incorporated with the correct words, could cause people to beleve you. it wasn't bending, and it wasn't magic, it was acting."well, i don't recall his majesty Ula, being sick, something like that would have been heard..." The guard said, unsure of his own words. "Think about it, if you were a great ruler, would you want your nation to know of your illness? the assasins, the bandits, the list can go on..." This seemed to have Satisfied the guard, he pointed in the direction of the lord's room, Taizen nodded, and headed in that drection, once he was out of sight, he headed towards the inner courtyard, there'd bound to be some fire blooms there!

Kazuki appered from behind Taizen and looked at the Benders "Oh, yes the Fire Lord is sick, but this plant is used for two thing, Sleep Powder, and Parilizing powder." Kazuki said looking at them "But we would not want to kill, the Fire Lord. If this plant was mixed with a anchent Air Nomade flower then it could cure a victium of anything. Do you have any questions now." Kazuki said

((I'm going to ignore that you appeared behind me...))
Taizen could see the courtyard now, he could tell, because there was a very powerful smell of ash, and flowers, the two smells contrasted eachother, but when logically thinking, the smells would have to be together, after all, the fire bloom had to be near fire to bloom...
He could see it now, there was a bonfire, a large bonfire, and around it, there were beautiful roses of crimson, and orange, the leaves, were black, and when squeezed, would produce a black resin, which had different, lesser properties than the petals of the fire bloom. Taizen walked purposefully towards the flowers, a gardener ran up to him and stopped him.
"Hey! what do you think your doing?!" he demanded, flames licking the arms of the gardener.
Taizen stopped, a bit surprised by the appearance of this firebending gardener(theres that oxymoron again! XD) he was obviously tending the fire blooms with his fire bending, deciding to stick with his story, he answered: "I'm a physician sent by the northern water tribe, lord ulu is sick, so he needed me to make a potion to help him, one of the ingredients for this potion is the fire bloom, so you see-"
The fire bender's eyes glowed, his eyes were gold, implying high birth(gold=high class citizen, orange/yellow= middle, or lower class.) "lord Ulu would never have sent you without a note! and he'd never give a fire bloom into the hands of water-scum!" He said vehemently stepping forward and shooting a jet of flame at Taizen. "Guards!' He called, over the crackling of woods, his voice couldn't have gotten far, the most reinforcements he was likely to get, was fellow gardeners.
Taizen Jumped to the side, narrowly missing the flames, from off of his vision, he could see Kazuki. "That could work to my advantage..." he thought. "Kazuki! Handle this guy while i get the fire blooms!" He called over his shoulder, dashing for the flowers.
((Please don't auto-hit my fire bender Npc... i thought it would be fun, if we Npc'ed some fire benders, and eventually got away from the palace, sure were not going to fight a real fire bender, but we'll get some REAL training posts under our belt.))

"Of course waist my time with these punks" Kazuki said jumping to the left then to the right dodgeing the fire. He then took the top off the gourd and then sat it on the ground digining it into the dirt to stand it up. "Ok people your getting anoying now." he said jumpining into the air "Oh holy power of the moon grant me your wave." Kazuki said brining both arms into the air and then the water flew out of the gourd in a vast amount and then shot down at the benders Kazuki grabed a vile out of his pouch and took the top out of it, a purple dust came out of it.
"Have fun revertining to monkeys" Kazuki said putining the top back on the vile after the gas moved around them.

"Hah!!!" The Fire bender Shouted, Rushing forward at Kazuki, Flames shooting from his nose and mouth, This stupid display of firebending-ship though caused out of anger, had saved the fire bender, for things could not go in, while things were coming out, in this time, it was flames, as the water began to reach him, the firebender smiled, the sun was glingting off through the water, though he was calling upon the power of the moon, the moon was no where in sight! but the sun, it was in they're presence. moving his arms in large circles, flames leaving trails, he raised both arms up into the sky, the hoops of flame shot into the air, burning brightly, evaporating the water, Arms still aflame, and in the air, he brought them down, sending a wave of fire downwards towards Kazuki.
"one fire bloom, two fire bloom... three fire- owch, thorn, 4 fire bloom..."

"Darn it..."Kazuki said moving his hands from the ground into the air and then to the other ground creatining a shild of ice around him and then it melted and the water was on the ground Kazuki lifted his arms to his center and then outwards twords the bender shotining small neddles of ice at him. Kazuki jumped up and then ran to the right and kicked out a wave of water after movining his arms up into the air and then twords his right leg.
"Come on faster Kazuki" he said grabing his bells from his hair "Grandfather I am usining it" he said as he stoped runing and then began to spin around in a circle then some threads began to fly out they where movining so fast they where sharper then knifes.

Walking down the street heading towards the market place Yoko stoped in mid-step as his eyes widend. Turning around Yoko began to walk as fast as he could with out making it noticable that he was in a hurry. Reaching the spot of the wall he had just previously climbed over he looked up at the rising sun a worried look spread across his face.
"Damn ... Its daylight and they are still in there... Ugh! This cant be good..."
Leaping up he grasped he wall as he pulled himself up higher onto the ledge. Peering across the grounds Yoko could see Kazuki and Taizen fighting a fire bender.
"I knew it!"
Pulling himself up onto the wall crouching Yoko then jumped to the ground below. Looking across the grounds he saw three fire benders running towards where Kazuki and Taizen were.
"Dont fail me ...."
Yoko said these words as he pulled his boomerang from his side and launched it at the fire benders. Sticking into a one of the gezebos poles the Boomerang missed the fire benders by just feet.
Fire Bender All: Lets get him!
Fire Bender One: Wait what about the ...
Fire Bender Three: Forget them!
Fire Bender Two: Right!
Raising his right hand at the approaching fire benders Yoko focused. Suddenly his boomerang pulled itself from the pole and began to fly back to him. Catching it as he pulled his whip from his side also Yoko got into fighting stance.
"Bring it!"
Just as he said this Fire Bender 1,2 & 3 lauched a set of fire balls. Using his boomerang Yoko blocked a few of the fireballs as he dodged the rest.
Just as he did this Yoko lashed his whip out striking Fire Bender Two leaving a huge gash on his chest and his attire as the whip had suddely turned into a ice whip combo.
Fire Bender Two: OUCH!!! HEY THAT HURT!
Fire Bender Three: Shut up! Lets get him!
Fire Bender One: Ugh! Just die already!
After finishing his sentence fire bender one shot a bust of lightning out at Yoko. Being caught off gaurd and barely dogeing it but getting burnt on his side.
"Agh.... You mother******!!!!!"
Lashing his whip out in an instant Yoko sliced open fire bender one's hand. As he did this with his left arm he used his right to laucn the boomerang out at them.
Fire Bender One: GAH!!!
Fire Bender Three and Two: Look out!
Dogeing the attack fire bender two and three lept back as the attack missed. One not making it as the boomerang smacked into him knocking him out. Falling with a flump fire bender one passed out as fire bender two got on the ground and tried to wake him up. With the boomerang flying back to him now Yoko caught it as he smirked.
"Your lucky the blunt side hit him!"
Lashing his whip out on the unsuspecting fire bender two Yoko attempted to slice his back open, but just as he did fire bender three jumped in the way. Being sliced deeply from the attack fire bender three fell out assumingly from loss of blood and emence pain. Approaching fire bender two Yoko smirked.
Fire bender Two: Hahahahahaha! Dont think I'm going to go easy on you!
Just as he said this a barrier of fire encased him and Yoko. Looking around quickly as he assesed the situation Yoko smiled as he got into fighting stance.
"Bring it Sparky!"
After finishing his sentence fire bender two sent a jet of lightning out at Yoko aiming straight at his heart. In a very elegant and quick motion Yoko suddenly droped his whip and boomerang with his items still in mid-air he pulled all the moisture from the surounding area and and created a stream of water. With the lighting just seconds from hitting him Yoko slid to the side. Useing the water to redirect the lightning attack Yoko sent it back at the fire bender.
Striking the fire bender in his hands fire bender two passed out. His body now falling lump to the ground like his commrades. Walking forth Yoko passed by his opponet now unconcious on the ground.
"Now to aid my friends!"
Bending the stream of water back into the air Yoko bent down and grabbed his items and returning them. Begining to run towards his friends Kazuki and Taizen, Yoko hoped he would reach them in time just incase something horrible might happen. Holding his singged side as he ran.
(Sorry so long lol ^__^)

((Wow... cool Tako.))
The fire bender stopped in his tracks, he was beginning to lose the fight! a a flurry of sharp pains stabbed his bare chest. "Fu**, what is he using?!" He demanded peering at the bells, which you could not see anything at first, but the sun lent a hand again, the strands which were cutting into him, which made him bleed, he could see them. "Rahh!" He shouted/grunted, placing his hands in front of him, the flames dancing on his fingers, being a firebender of the garden, he was used to controlling his bending, as to not burn the plants, and had great control over his fire.
The placid fire that sat on his fingertips, after a wave, and a stab towards Kazuki, roared and shot forward, another jet of flame, he hoped he could burn Kazuki, or atleast destroy the annoying thread being carried by the bells. But he couldn't stop the attack there, after his attack, he take a deep breath, make a running start, jump, and smite Kazuki with his leg, aflame.
If he missed, he would perform the standard Firebending move, to remove people from your personal space, which was the roll, and flame, where you rolled on the floor, and sent your legs out in an almost complete Circle, causing flame to make your attackers back away quickly. the reason for the almost circle and not a complete one, was for standing up again.
"Okay, thats it.." Taizen thought, sweating from the proximity of the flames and flowers, he'd plucked quite a few f the fires, and now less than a few were still there. "Gotta leave the fire nation something!" He thought, laughing inwardly at his Charity. "Hurry up and finish him Kazuki!" He called, turning around, and seeing the firebender launch into the air. "Shoot!" Taizen headed towards them, but he plenty yards away, he didn't think he would make it!

Reaching Kazuki and Taizen, Yoko pulled his whip out again and like before lashed it out at the unsupecting Fire Bender that was spining sending flames out around him. Though the flames were stong and extremely hot Yoko's whip cut through them like a hot knife through butter aiming to lash and also grasp his leg. If this attack would connect it would slice the Fire Bender greatly and also stop his barrage of fire from coming out.

Kazuki jumped to the left dodging the jet stream of fire, and then saw the bender coming down on top of him, "Guys stay out of this I can handle this one." Kazuki with a smirk "Fuuchion Threads, used buy the second water bending Avatar, one of my ancestors. Meet he great technique." Kazuki said closing his eyes and then brought his arms into the air really fast his palms facing the ground and then up towards the fire bender.
"Geyser of a Thousands Moons." Kazuki called out as all the water in the gourd flue into the air in a massive amount and then Kazuki took his right hand and grabbed the bells from his hair, and waved his arm down to his right side creating 1,000 threads flying out and spark lining like moon light. Then they strikes the benders body and the water hit him next after words it froze around in a sphere the threads where connected to his presser points and life lines, if he tried to bend he would die. "Make sure you have a perfect doctor take those out, or.....you will die." Kazuki said smiling "Hey guys lets go to the city I want to go shopping ok." Kazuki said walking towards Yoko and Taizen grabbing his gourd and putting it over his shoulder. "I need to feel this up its too light I used most of the water in this fight." he said

Right before his whip struck Yoko brought it back to him. Walking over to the fire bender that was now incapable of moving, Yoko placed his hand on the fire benders head. Closing his eyes, all of the needles began to turn into liquid as the water then poured off his body. After the fire benders body was now able to move Yoko did a combination of moves as he struck the fire bender. Suddenly collapsing the fire bender fell unconsious, turning around Yoko looked at Taizen and said,
"Taizen I think its time to leave.... Its not safe here any more. Kazuki from now on I think it would be best to not go to an extent like you have here. I advise you only use that move if its a have too..."
After finishing what he had to say Yoko turned around and walked past the passed out fire bender and began to head towards the back side of the grounds. Heading a good distance from them Yoko turned around slightly and said,
"I'll be waiting for you on the cliffs overlooking the sea side. Dont be long... and dont bring company."
Finishing what he had to say Yoko turned back around and began to jog towards the cliff side.

"s**t!!" Taizen thought, as the firebender fell, he rushed forward, checking his pulse, "Damnit, i don't want anyone to die!" he thought angrily, casting Kazuki an angry glance as the murmor of voices began to near them, "Lets get out of here!" He commanded, laying the firebender back down on the floor, he was pale, and quite obviously in pain, but he didn't seem to be in any mortal danger, he would however, need a lot of sleep, Taizen didn't know what he would do if the firebender could have died, stayed and helped him? or leave, and hope he didn't die?
Taizen stood up and dashed for the exit that Yoko had gone in, he could hear firebenders now. "Who are they?... Waterbenders!! Get 'em!!" Taizen was back out onto the streets in no time.
(Exit to shizu-agara non-palace)

Sitting on a boulder that borderd the cliffsideYoko awaited him team mates to meet him. A now good distance from the palace Yoko relaxed and listened to the sound of the rushing water below.
"If it werent for the fire benders being so hostile I'd like to come back here more often. This place is so relaxing....too bad we have to leave."
Standing up Yoko streched as he looked back towards the palace not a guard or person was seen in sight. It was quiet, a bit too quiet as a matter of a fact. Kneeling Yoko opend his bag and seached trough it. Finding a small satchel with bread in it he pulled it out and ripped off a peice of it and tossed it off the cliff. Suddenly a flock of birds that had been down below near the water swarmed up where he was.
"Hello Birdys, You want some food?"
Pulling hunks of the bread off he feed it to the birds as they began to make a loud banter and began flying around in a frenzy.
"Good Birds.... Now do me a favor? Check the grounds for any guards. If there is any bring me back something of thiers."
Flying off the birds searched the grounds. Soon after leaving they returned with the hat to one of the fire benders imperial guards.
"Damn this isnt good...Kazuki.... Taizen please hurry!"
