Cher took a seat at the large circle, watching all of the other seats slowly fill, leaving no gap in the perfect circle. Cher crossed her legs to look more casual and to become more comfortable. If this whole organization thing was to work, Cher would need to try hard to gain the trust of the other members, and then have them gain her trust. Respect was rather easy to gain. But, the other female may view her the wrong way, like a woman who's after all the guys. But, Cher hoped that's not the way the only other female member looked at her. Cher hoped she'd be able to bond with this girl and they'd support each other since it wasn't easy living with men, Cher knew that extremely well.
Huang caught her attention as he spoke her name thrice and told her to trust him. This caused Cher to cross her arms. He'd get this trust in due time, when he earned it like Stryder had. As he spoke of the symbol, Cher thought it was an alright idea. But, perhaps a circle should be better since Cher though circles usually meant peace, where all beings were one, perfect circle of harmony, like the circle they had formed with the seats.
But, now Huang was speaking of everyone spilling their guts about their pasts, and since no one was speaking, Cher sighed and spoke up, "I will," She declared quietly. "Perhaps now you'll understand why I don't take kindly to many Firebenders." Cher said, looking down at the floor, although it was directed at Huang and he knew it, too. (I'm just going to copy my explaination from my post before.)
"Okay, well, I was born the sixth of seven children. I was their only female child. My mother was the most beautiful maiden in all of the Earth Kingdom, at least according to Father. Father was a very hard working man, very powerful, although his rank was rather low while Mother's was high. So, I had five older brothers, and one baby brother, who all protected me and made me laugh, oh, life was great back then... Until the war began... It was first my Mother who was kidnapped, she was raped and killed, left in the middle of the forest to die... When Father found out, he slipped into depression, and the family was never the same again. But, when the war began heating up, all of my brothers and my Father went out into war, and in war they all passed. The Fire Nation had taken the lives of my family... So, I was forced to move in with my Aunt and Uncle, on my Mother's side... But, soon, the Fire Nation attacked there, too, while I was out collecting water. I found the town in ashes when I returned... From then on, I became a wanderer..."
