The Story Continues...
Ray left that day. Only she didn't leave. She left Uncle Iroh's but not the city. She had this feeling that wouldn't leave. Something was drawing her to stay in Ba Sing Se.
That morning she was walking through the city when she saw a spot of blue. She got a little ecxited and hoped it was the boy she met at Iroh's.
With that she ran to where the blue was. It kept moving farther away.
She neared it and saw that the blue had actually been a girl with a group of people. She stopped and hoped no one saw her running towards them.
That was the oppisite. Right as she turned around she heard a voice calling behind her.
"Hey, she was walking to us. See what she wants."
All of a sudden a hand landed on her shoulder. She stopped and turned around to see a young boy with the girl dressed in blue behind him.
She turned around to face him fully. "Hi, can I help you?" she asked
The boy remove his hand and put it by hid side. "Oh, well we were just wandering why you ran to us. Then why you suddenly ran away."
"Oh, well... it's just I thought you were someone else." she said pointing to the girl in blue. "All I saw was the blue and ya. Actually, you look a lot like him in a way." Ray said looking a little closer at the girl.
"Really? I might know him. Where is he from?" the girl asked
"I think he said the South Pole, but i'm not really possative."
"Huh, what's his name?" she pried
"I do believe he said Sokka." Ray answered
"That's my brother."
"Really?"
"Ya, if you want you could come with us. We're searching the city and have No idea where we are."
"Ok, but only if it's alright with all of you." she said looking around ata the three.
"Ya, it's fine with me. Aang? Toph?"
"I don't care." said the voice she first heard
"Ya, it'd be fun." the boy said
"I also know the city. Probably better than anyone else here. Oh ya, I'm Ray."
"I'm Katara, that's Aang and Toph." she said pointing the other two out
"Wait, is she blind?"
"Ya, gotta problem with that." Toph snapped
"No, sorry."
With that, Ray lead them back to the upper ring. "What's your address?"
Toph named it and they walked down a long street filled with houses til they could see thier house. "That it?" she asked
"Yep." they chorused
"Well, I guess I should go." Ray sighed. "it was nice meeting you. Have a nice night."
"It was nice meeting you too. Where do you live? Maybe we could hang out later." Katara said
Ray's cheaks tinted a little red. "I kinda don't have a house. I was kicked out b my brother." Ray said
Aang and Katara shared a look. Aang spoke up first. "You could crash with us. We have plenty of space."
Her eyes grew wide. "Really, you mean it." she said disbelieving her ears. The only people that were ever nice to her were her mom, Zuko, and Iroh.
"Yep. come on in. Make yourself comfortable." Katara confirmed
"Thanks so much." she said while walking into the house after Aang and Toph
"My brother should be here soon. He's been going to a resturaunt with some girl eveyday." Katara said
Ray only smiled on the inside. She knew that Sokka had been coming to see her.
"So, ya." Aang said awkwardly. "Just pick a pile of pillows."
She was about to sit down on a pile when toph jumped onto it.
"Ok... i guess i'll sit somewhere else." Ray mumbled
She sat down on a pile by Katara. The door suddenly slammed open.
"Someones mad." Toph remarked
There was a growl at the door.
"Hey, you okay? Do you need anything Sokka." Katara asked her brother
"No." he growled. They couldn't see his face because how the sun hit him
"Your lying." mused Toph. She had a smirk on her face
"Ok, you want to know what my problem is? My problem is that everytime I fall in love with someone, they run off, or die, or have to stay with thier town, or...SOMETHING!" he said exasperated. He turned around after he said that and shut the door. When he turned around, he was suprised to see a new face.
Ray just smiled at him. She thought his little tantrums were cute.
It took Sokka a few minutes to relize who he was looking at.
"Ray?"
"Ya. It's me." she said
Ray stood up and they hugged. "He's drooling." Toph 'whispered'. They heard snickers.
"Don't listen to her." Ray said into his ear
They let go and looked into eachothers eyes.
"So, mind telling us how you two know eachother." Toph pried
"Sokka can tell you if you really want to know." Ray said turning around to face the other three in the room
"How did you find them." Sokka gestured to Aang, Katara, and Toph
"I ran into them earlier today. I saw blue and thinking it was you, I ran to it. It turned out to be your sister." she said
"What happened to you leaving?"
She bit her lip. "I... well... left where I was staying. Something told me to stay in Ba Sing Se though." she said
"So, are you staying with us?"
She shrugged. "I don't know."
"Well you can if you want." Sokka said
"Ok. Well, saying that, I think I'm gonna retire for the night." she said and yawned.
"Ok. Night." Sokka said
"Same here, you can sleep in my room with me." Katara said
"Ok, thanks Katara."
"I'm off to bed." Aang said and disappeared behind a door.
"Night peoples." Toph said and crashed on a pile of pillows
"Night." And with that Sokka was off to his bed
