Ty'la was transfisxed by the ceremony. It was breath taking. The gold, rare stones and other artifactes used were quite lovely too. 'Probably very expensive too...' Ty'la thought. A faint smile crossed her lips but then it faded yet something pulled her out of it...something...was...suddenly it happened.<br/><br/>In a critical part of the ceremony violence errupted. At least half the waterbenders or participents were down imediately. However...not all went down and quickly a fight was one. THough the energy pulsated now...qhite, purple, rainbow colors pulsate...it was ominous too and the two priests in the center didn't stop. One water bender moved to protect them. Two shot forward engaging several of the water benders but it was apparent that given what was going on and the surpise that they were outnumbeed.<br/><br/>Ty'la did manage to dodge a wave of rocks that could swallow her up. Instead Ty'la dove and rolled back up to her feet and flipped backwards as she fired off a fire bender move sending a foot forward and a fireball at one of the earth benders. He was hit hard and toppled to the ground. It was obvious they hadn't expected Ty'la had expert training or was a very skilled firebender. Ty'La knifed through several of the earth benders sending out a series of fire balls<br/><br/>"HOUH!" Ty'la called out as she leapt forward and rebounded off of one of the rocks that had been shoved up through the ground by the earth benders. Ty'la then spun on her heals and sent out a series of firebolts as she tried to defend the waterbenders. "Stay back!..." SHe called out to them and then she was sent sliding back a few steps from the impact of several rocks yet Ty'la flipped sideways and sent out a fire kick that sent a wave of fire at the nearest earthbender. "Quick...pull back! We need to fight!" Ty'la called out to the priest and the remaining water benders.<br/><br/>"We can't...yet the ceremony has to be completed!" One Water Tribe priestess called out as she didn't stop bending but her face was drawn, worried even terrified as one of the artifacts was crushed and managed by a rock deflected by a water bender protecting her she grimaced.<br/><br/>"We need to take out that fire girl. NOW...before they organize, and I don't care how you do it...Anju, kill her now!" The earth bender shouted out as he smashed his foot into the ground and sent a rock sheet towards the firebender and water benders with a kick. "If you don't I will!"
