Chapter 1: Prologue
Mmk so this is my first Avatar fanfic. Any comments would be awesome! So read and hopefully you enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar... dang
The young/old airbender walked from a local teashop on a calm evening as dusk was setting in. The day had been hard, for a certain search had, so far, been hopeless. The Calming cup of tea helped a bit, but not as much as hoped. To make things worst the waiter with a scar came running out and yelled "Hey you! The Avatar!"
Running away down the street, it was difficult from everyone just getting off work and heading home. Quickly scanning the crowd, the airbender found an alley and leaped over the crowd, hoping to hide.
Still running, Zuko spotted the leap and headed toward the dusk darkened alley. He knew the alley well. It was where Jin had led him to the fire fountain. Shaking his head, he focused back to the topic at hand, this was his chance! Turning the corner, he quickly grabbed the benders shoulder and announced, "I've got you now!" But when he pulled out of the alley into the lantern lit street, something was not right.
"You're not the Avatar!" Zuko exclaimed.
"I'd find that obvious, wouldn't you?" The young airbender girl shot back, shrugging from Zuko's grasp. It was true. There stood a girl, almost identical to Aang with similar clothing, arrows, and air staff, which she held in a fighting stance. She had brown, nearly strait hair, lightly pulled back into a ponytail with nose length bangs hanging off to the side.
"Well, from a distance you just looked.."
"A lot like the great Avatar, ya I know." The girl said cutting in, "I've heard it a lot lately. People thinking I was who I'm not. Who are you anyway?"
"Why should I tell you? You look like you're ready to kill me!" Zuko shot back pointing a finger. Just then a vague figure swooped down on Zuko beginning to scratch and paw at his face.
"Kiku! Stop," The girl yelled to her companion. "sorry I guess she was just trying to protect me."
Zuko with anger on his face, ready to blow thought 'Don't lose it Zuko! Whatever you do don't firebend.' Taking a deep breath he said, "I guess... its ok. But what is that?"
"She's a cat-hawk." The girl replied. Her cat-hawk looked like a normal grey tabby cat, but from her shoulders were a pair of grey and brown feathered wings, about a foot long wingspan on either side.
"By the way, my name's Akira, and yours?" Akira said as she put her staff behind her back.
"Lee," Zuko said flatly.
"Well Lee, I gotta go. I'll see you around." She said as her and Kiku flew into the darkening night.
That was the prologue. Might not seem like much but it will, I think. PLEASE Review, all types appreciated A LOT!
