Hello, dear reader.

Remember me, Syd? Oh, and Darrin, too. Well, a while back, we took a little trip to Avatar Land, thanks to Darrin and his TV-touching. Yes, it was quite entertaining. No, I did not enjoy all the bugs and the dirt. Yes, I had a little bit of a crush on Jet...Whoohooie, we're getting off the subject, aren't we?

Anyhoo, this whole thing is about when the Avatar people visited our doorstep. Actually, it was the computerstep, because Darrin and I were online at the time of the incident. But let's start from the beginning.

I was surfing the web on my laptop in my room while Darrin listened to my Greenday CD. I was TRYING to find a good Jet picture to make into a poster (GAH) and Darrin had cranked up the volume so loud that it was almost too hard to hear the mouse clicking. "DARRIN, CAN YOU PLEASE TURN IT DOWN?" I asked politely over the noise.

Silence.

"DARRIN!"

Still silence.

I clenched my teeth and tried to ignore him as I surfed some more, finally coming onto an Avatar fansite. "Cool, screenshots," I murmured. The music grew louder. I swung the chair around, my hand swiping over the keyboard. "DARRIN! TURN IT OFF NOW OR I'LL - "

Flash.

Darrin flipped off the music. "Why's the screen red?" "I don't know, I hit something..." I frantically pressed keys to try and reboot, but the redness grew brighter. I jumped onto the bed, taking Dar with me. "What is it? It reminds me of the TV." He was getting that this-should-be-fun look in his eye. I frowned. "Oh, no..."

The entire room went ablaze with red light.
