The Fire Dancer (open to Maki)

'Being a former circus member had it's perks' thought Akane as she looked at herself in the mirror.
She looked far more Fire Nation that she had ever in her life. She wore A naval exposing red top that showed plenty of cleavage and a flowing scarlet skirt that reached to her knees.

"It's time to go out" called her partner who was dressed like she was. They both walked through a current and onto a stage that was surrounded by a crowd people. The beat of music and they began to dance in sync . Akane used her fingers to create a trail of fire that moved with her body as she danced that just moved along her skin. It was difficult to control the fire at such a close range without burning yourself, but Akane managed due to years of practice. She became lost in her art and forgot the world around her.

The music became louder and faster. She suddenly changed into a fighting stance as she and her dance partner began a mock battle. The 'fight' was about art motion not power. They bended the fire into elegant shapes that would have been impractical for battle. The movements became faster as the performance reached their climax. They ended their performance with a loud firework like technique which caused loud claps throughout the crowd.

Akane smiled to her partner as she exited the stage. Tonight she was in a noble man's manor that she had got into due to her entertainment background. She headed to the food table in search for a glass of water

'Dinner with Lord Tasu of joy, oh well he does throw a great party,' Luna sighed and went inside, being the princess and queen while Erin and Maki were away had some perks. The candles flickered and the sun started to descend into the sky. Luna's pale blond hair lifting at the slight breeze. Luna wore a leaf green tunic with black leggings underneath with black furry boots. As usual her golden ornate princess crown atop her head.

(OOC: Look at profile for better look,)

The house was illuminated with candles all around. Luna's carriage arrived at 6. 'The carriage is, well saying. Hey look royalty coming though.' It was required for all gathering for transportation for short distances. Luna walked out and the large doors opened to reveal a large space decorated in a fire nation red.

"Welcome Princess Luna!" Lord Tasu said and everyone in the room bowed to Luna, Luna quickly blushed and bowed back. Luna saw everyone go back to their polite talk and she slipped away into the blue water tribe looking dining hall. 'His bedroom might be air temple style at this rate,' Luna lightly smiled.

Luna looked around not noticing the girl in the red in front of her. Luna knocked into her and Luan jabbed her hands upright making the potted plants tree roots catch the girl. "Sorry, are you hurt?" Luna said with concern because it was her fault and she was hoping the roots did not have thorns.

The fire bender being both distracted by her thirst and the unique architecture did not notice someone had bump into her until she started falling and was caught by something. Her eyes widened in surprise and before she would ask she heard a voice asking if she was hurt.

"I'm okay" She started to laugh at her interesting position.

Luna pulled the girl up and bended the roots back into place, "Sorry about that Lord Tasu's house is a wonder. I got distracted," Luna said looking up again at the girl, "I am Luna what's your name?" Luna asked studying the girl for a few moments. Luna conveniently leaving out she was a princess but most did not notice the crown unless they have a keen eye or know she is the princess.

"Yeah, that Tasu has a great style" she replied in a still giggling voice. She then noticed how beautiful the girl in front of her was.

"I am Akane Sato" She then step slightly nearer to the girl and said in the most polite tone she could muster.

"You are one of the most elegant women I have seen in a long time."

"Do you want to dance?" she asked eagerly.

'Hmm, Lord Tasu would never miss me, he is having so many people,' Luna though and she answered, "I would love a dance, with some as elegant as yourself," Luna replied with a joyful tune in her voice.

Akane grinned from ear to ear and lead Luna to the dance floor.

"Since I asked you to dance I'll take the lead" Akane commented as she placed her hand on Luna's waist as the music started.

"So do you know Lord Tasu" Akane asked, trying to start a conversation. The dance noticed that several people were staring at them while they were dancing. 'Must not be use to seeing two girls dancing together' thought Akane.

(I am going on Vacation from today to err, 9 days from now Happy Holidays! Sorry it's short!)
Luna twirled and said "Well, he is a Lord with trade and I visit him to discuss with trade, ships, and other boring things," Luna said to her softly so Lord Tasu would not hear. "Are you from the fire nation, and are you a bender?"
