(Okay everyone, this is the actual RP from "Fear and Loathing in Ba Sing Se, which was too long a name. So it is now called "The Resistance." If you would like to sign up please go to the About RP section and find the original board (stated above). Please do not post your characters forms in this board.)
Setting/basic storyline (has been changed from original):
It has been two weeks since the Fire Nation has taken over the capital of the earth kingdom. Though they still maintain a firm hold over the people, rumors have been spreading faster than a firebender's flames. A nameless leader has started a resistance. Calling on the aid of any wishing to help, he or she has been slowly gaining followers.
They start small; stealing, refusing to obey orders, etc. But everyone, even in the inner ring, are beginning to hear of an even greater upheaval. No one knows what will happen next.
Who are you going to be in the realm of the city?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sun was fading slowly behind the walls of the great city. Shinju knew that if she didn't hurry back to the shopkeeper's apartment, she would get another reprimanding from the Fire Nation soldiers that patrolled the streets. That would be unpleasant.
Swinging her long black hair back from her face, she hefted the heavy basket, shifting the weight from one arm to the other, trying to find a comfortable position.
This is the last time I try to do a good deed for that little manipulator. Shinju thought venomously of Rin. The older woman who owned the shop in which she stayed had certainly agreed to take her in...but at a price. Shinju had barely any time to explore the city because she was always doing things for Rin; running errands, watching her grandchildren, telling the Fire Nation guards that it was her own fault that had led to the "Great Cat Fiasco" as the neighbors called it.
The was most definitely not my fault. Shinju let out a sigh as she approached the rough wooden door. The streets were almost empty, she noticed, as she struggled to knock on the door without dropping the heavy basket.

Hyana fumbled with the keys to her new building in the city. " Ugh, darn you stupid keys!" she said angrily. She could hardly blame herself, though. After living many months in the solitary wild, only going to town for suppiles, news, and money, she hadn't handled keys in some time. She kicked the door to her new cottage and shop, only resulting in pain seering through her foot. She hopped around on one foot angrily. Suddenly, Hyana tripped and fell onto her butt right in front of the door. The keys she had dropped landed and spun a few feet away on the stone path. She rubbed her head, closing one eye in pain. Then, something caught Hyana's eye. She turned her head slowly to see two girls, one struggling with a heavy basket, looking at her strangely. She smiled, embarrased, and said, " Um... Ta-da?"

" Thanks," Hyana joked. She tried to stand up, but she ended up back on the ground again, pain shooting through her left foot. "Um... May you please help me?"

"Thanks again," Hyana smiled warmly. She rubbed her arm, wincing slightly everytime her hand passed over her burns that looked like razor-sharp teeth criss-crossing down her arm. "I guess I'm not used to using keys... or doors for that matter. I lived in the wild for a long time..." She sighed and pressed her forehead against her cool wooden door. A breeze passed overhead, ruffling Hyana's ankle-length, sea-green canvas dress.The black, ruffle-y headband she was wearing slipped onto the ground because the wind.

Hyana turned around, surprised. " Oh...Um...thanks..." she smiled warmly. She picked up her keys and opened her door, and was about to walk through when she suddenly burst out, " Wouldyalikesomtea?" She smiled encouragingly.

(sorry guys, I've been in a terrible place without internet for the longest time.)
Shinju quietly accepted the help from the girl. She watched another fell while trying to open up a door and laughed inwardly. As Hadaska walked away, she called out, "Oh....thank you!" As the other girl stood outside of her door Shinju gazed at her curiously.
"Are you new to the city?"

"Unfortunately...yes," Hyana admitted to Shinju. "I've been living in the wild for a long time, running away ffrom-" Hyana's tone dropped,"-Fire Nation soldiers. Unfortunately, a couple days after I arrived to make a new living they shut off the gates to everyone except those of high Fire Nation postion." She shrugged, her tone returning to normal. "It doesn't matter though. I'm opening a flower shop here, so that I can make a living. By the way, I'm Hyana Kino. Who're you?"

hadaska was quickly walking to her grand parents apartment in the Lower ring of Ba sing se. She was late ,as always. In a couple of minutes she approached the small partially torn down shack that she called "home". Hadaska opened the old wooden door splinters flying off as it creaked open. "gramma grampa im home sorry im so........." she was cut off. On the floor was a tightly rolled up scroll. She bent down and opened it up. It said........ "Hadaska, were sorry but, Ba sing se is no place for us. this is not a good city. we left. were very sorry. love, your grand parents"
"awww come on!!!" hadaska angerly said out loud.

(( Much better, thank you, ilovetaang. I think you should also use some colourful verb-os too! Like instead of "Hadaska angrily said out loud", try "Hadaska howled" or, "she cried". It makes it kinda better, don't you think so? Again, I'm not trying to insult you or anything... Just trying to help you out. ))
