From not far off in the distance, a Buffalo Yak was revealed in the storm, feeding upon a fruit that grew only in blizzards. It didn't seem to notice Autumn, either. So to her, it may have seemed like... all she needed to do... was go over and capture it. With no effort. Snow was raining down upon both her and the Buffalo, and this provided ample opportunity to strike.
In her ear, she'd hear a whisper from a strange voice. It told her to take it. To take the creature right now, and gain her prize. To make people proud of her. The voice was strange and ominous, and she may have wondered if it was her own imagination... or a spirit of the cold world. The voice disappeared, but the whispers could still be heard. The echoed from her mind to her body, and the girl would soon feel a shiver spreading through her spine.

❄"Autumn Clematis Thea"❄4'ft 9'in tall // 14 years old㊌ Chi: 350
Water Bender...
With luck, she was able to find one near by behind all the snow fall. Now she just need to get that thing tamed and get back to the village. She scrunch down into the snow, looking at the buffalo Yak carefully, the big furry, horned animal has it's neck reached out over to the fruit. When she was trying to think of something of what to do next, she suddenly hear something. Autumn turn around quickly of where it could possibly coming from, but all she's seeing is white snow on the grown and falling form the sky. "T-Teacher?" She said softly to herself, wondering if that was him. He did said he was going to watch over them, but she couldn't see anyone near by. She just go back to the Yak and think it was just the blizzard wind that was making those sound, or maybe she's just getting sick in this weather. It would explain the big chill she's feeling on her back. She doesn't like this one bit and try shake it off.
She got to stay focus, her prize is the Buffalo Yak. Teacher Shen said that they need to capture, tame, than get it back home. But how was she to capture it? All she been taught was water-bending in a attack-like moves. She can't harm the animal, it's no way to catch it and it will just run away. So she'll just skip right to the taming part. Autumn move slowly tours the Buffalo Yak over to the side that it wouldn't see her right away. It's pretty hard to be silent with the snow making crunching sounds. She stop when she thinks she's close enough and grab something out from her bag. She brought a carrot with her. The orange root vegetable as one of her snack. Buffalo Yak are vegetarians so they would like these."Looky, I got a treat for you!" She held up the orange carrot up high, calling to the animal for attention with in the blizzard.

Because the lady was a master waterbender, she could instantly tell the cause of the difference in warmth. Autumn just peed herself. Wasn't that lovely. She'd hear a whisper in her ear again, and the origin of noise almost felt like it was the blood inside of her body. The blood, within her, speaking to her as if she were a different life-form of it. "If all water is life, then I'm a new life inside of you. I'm the life that's inside of everyone, controlling the flow of the world, the sea. And now I'm controlling you." The snow white figure would rise her hands, and her fingers would cringe as if she were a puppeteer. Her hands would control the movements of Autumn's body, and with Autumn, she'd start to walk to where the real Buffalo Yaks were. Whether the spirit was malevolent or gentle was unknown, but it could be assumed that it wasn't of good grace. It led her to her destination, but it was almost like it was feeding off of her fear. And yet, with what its words were like... it could almost be certain that this spirit was... the original waterbender.
Or maybe it was all a trick of her mind.
The lady led her to a lone Yak, who had noticed her moving along the snow. It was weary, and cautious, and about ready to run. In this cold world, where survival of the fittest was the law of life, it wasn't far from likely that Autumn was here to eat the Buffalo Yak, and sacrifice life for her own. Humans were carnivores; creatures to be feared. "It fears you, you know. And it has every reason to."

When Autumn seemed startled, the lady simply laughed. "...Bloodbending." She probably hadn't seen it before. Most people kept it a secret, or just didn't know of it from the start. But the truth was, the creation of life involved bloodbending. Your body was constantly bloodbending in its own way by replicating blood cells, just like how the world was constantly replicating life. The human body was just like the planet. Things moved in a cycle and remained balanced, because if the balance was broken, the body would grow sick and die. It was the same for the planet. The planet would die if the balance was broken. That was why bending existed. Bending had the power to keep the balance, just as the spirits and animals did themselves. "It's a part of the cycle. Humans tyrannize animals and abuse their higher standing to thrive against them. It's a selfish and vicious movement but it's necessary for human survival. It's also a part of the cycle. However, animals are required for more than just food, but transportation. What you humans can't eat is used by you in some other disgusting manner, and there can be no reconciliation for this. It should be afraid of you; you will use it, and destroy it. You are a human. You destroy everything, because--" She flicked her arms, and began to bloodbend the Buffalo Yak as well, moving Autumn's body to mount her upon the beast as it began to walk home with her. "Destruction, too, is part of the balance. Live with your destructive, selfish life. And take your prize with you, Water Tribesman." The Buffalo -- somehow -- was tamed. But it didn't seem to have much personality. It was quiet, cold, desolate. At least for now. They could go on with their relationship later, but right now, all the creature wanted was to be as far away from here as possible. It wanted to be somewhere with food and life, somewhere safe where it didn't have to be alone.
