Disclaimer and all that: I don't own da avatarnesses. But, as my cat as my witness, I WILL :D (Cat goes to sleep)
The calmness of the ocean is for one only to really admire. Its constant beauty strung across the endless earth; lost, never ending, never beginning. But on the ship of the banished Prince Zuko, a cry interrupted this calmness. The calmness is no more.
"WHAT?" Prince Zuko shouted at his uncle. Having heard his...unusual news. Iroh sipped his tea and made a pai-cho move, and then he replied. As if no biggie.
"Im sending you away to boarding school Prince Zuko. You need a positive place so you can controle that...anger" Iroh pointed out. Zuko pouted and started yelling out the reasons why he shouldn't go to the school.
"I have to capture the avatar! I don't have time for school or anything." Iroh grinned as he sipped some of his tea.
"Thats the beauty of it prince Zuko.Its a bending school." Zuko scoffed. He didn't want to waist his time at school. Frankly. I couldn't agree more on the topic of not wanting to be at school. "Think of it like this: The avatar has to master all the elements. The school teaches Earth, water and Fire. Where else would he go?" Zuko had to admit. His uncle had a good point, the avatar would probably go to one place to study the elements instead of actually going all around the earth. "Pluse." His uncle added. "I was offored a teaching job as the fire bending instructer, and the pai-cho club coach." Zuko rose an eyebrow to his uncle.
"Why would they hire you to teach?" His uncle grinned and won the pai-cho game.
"They wanted a fire bender that was good, but wasn't really aimed at conquring anything. Sence Im retired from fighting, I thought, why not apply?" Zuko growled as his uncle handed him the brochure for the school. "No need to pout. We'll be at the island in three days." Zuko snatched the brochure from his cunle and stomped down to his room to look over where he'd be living for a while.
Three days went by. Aang, Katara, and Sokka got to the same island that Zuko was headed for; to stop for supplies. When they met a girl that looked 19, and another girl that looked 15. They both had red hair, but the 19 year old's face was more feminin, and whiter. They were buying jewelery, and having a conversation.
"C'mon Julia. Buy some. You only have mom's old necklace, she wouldn't mind if you wore something else for a while." The nineteen year old said to the fifteen year old. On the neck of Julia (The fifteen year old.) hung a silver necklace with a giant silver heart with a tiny sapphire heart in the middle. She seemed rather shy. She wore a blue skirt that reached to her knees, dress shoes, and let her red hair flow down, combed, and washed. But not in a pony-tail or any thing. Well actually, she had her hair down, but alittle bit of her hair on the top was put into a braided pony tail. (If anyone knows what that is called, please tell me.) She wore a white shirt with a dark blue blazer, But the white shirt was actually a long sleeved blouse. She didn't wear make-up, but she did have two red-rose earrings.
"I don't want to. You'll just be waisting your money buying me any jewlery. I won't wear it." She didn't sound happy. But her voice was very small, and soft.As if she had no self-confadence. In her hands, she held a suitcase, and the other girl had one in her hands as well. "Lets go. If we are late, we have to pay an extra 10 copper peices for the uniforms." When Julia turned to leave, she saw Aang, Katara, and Sokka. "Oh hello."
"Hi." Aang greeted smiling. Almost instantly, Julia seemed to recongnize him.
"Your tattoos.." She mumbled stairing at the arrow on his head, and arrows on his hands. "Your the avatar!" Aang smiled as if it was no big deal, nodding to what she was saying. "Have you masterd all the elements?" Aang's smile faded and he shook his head. "The school were going to teaches the elements! Why don't you enroll?" Katara, Sokka, and Aang all exhanged glances and talked about it.
"Aang, you can learn all the elements at the same time!" Katara giggled. "I can get into a water bending class!"
"Can we afford to get in though?" Sokka asked them, taking out the money. "We haven't got much."
"They'll probably let us in, considering I'm the avatar." Aang pointed out. The other two agreed with him, and then turned back to Julia.
"Okay." Katara said. "We'll enroll."
Zuko finished packing his things. He really didn't care to go to a new school, but he knew the avatar would be there, so he'd work under cover or something like that.
"Come on Prince Zuko. You do not want to miss the train!" Iroh told his nephew. The brochure said that a train would take them from the tiny town of Shitoru, all the way up to Evingston boarding school. He didn't want to go, but of course, he didn't want to be banished either, but he was. So he just had to suck it up and take it like a man.Zuko grabbed his bags and followed his uncle out of the ship and to the train that had the word Evingston Boarding School written on the side in shiny gold. They walked onto the train and took a seat, Zuko sourly staired out the window. He was going to a new school where the only person he knew there, was a teacher. Not that it matterd anyway, he was only there for the fire bending classes, and to find the avatar. That was the only reason; but five people walked onto the bus after him. Two people wearing water bending clothes, one wearing a goofy hat and wearing air-bender clothes, a timid looking girl, and a ninteen year old girl. The timid girl couldn't keep her eyes focused away from him. She kept finding something else to look at, and then she turned to the four behind her.
"Lets sit with him. He looks lonely." She told them, all but her sister shook their heads.
"We can't!" Aang replied. "He's trying to arrest me!" But Julia tapped on his hat.
"Thats what the hat is for." She told him, he narrowed his eyes to the ground, knowing that she had a point. The girl seemed to be quiet when she approched Zuko and asked if she and her friends could sit there.
"What?" Zuko would ask. He couldn't hear her soft voice. She took in a deep breath and asked louder.
"Can my friends and I sit there?" Zuko sighed and allowed it. He didn't really care that much. Katara and Aang sat on the side beside Julia, who sat beside Zuko, and Sokka and Julia's big sister Katie sat beside Iroh. The train started to leave the station as the long, quiet train ride to Evingston began. Julia began to read a horror novel while Aang, Katara and Sokka tried to find something to do. What was really strange, was that Katara and Sokka didn't need to disquise themselfs, Zuko was so mad about having to go to school, he didn't really notice them, and Iroh kind of forgot what they looked like. Pluse, he was going to be a teacher there, so he didn't point out to his nephew that the avatar was sitting right infrount of him.
The ride seemed so long, and quiet between the seven people sitting together. Julia kept her eye on Zuko, finding him very attractive. I personally, don't blame her. That guy is F(cencer)kin' hot! Iroh began to strike a conversation with them in order to break the silence.
"so, is this your first year at Evingston?" They all nodded. Julia too, after placing a tiny ripped up peice of paper in her book as a bookmark. But Katie, she shook her head.
"I've been there before. I took a job as the cook this year; its really a great school." Julia smirked to herself and looked back into her book. "The enrollment fee isn't much, thats why I'm sending my sister. I want her to get a good enducation at a small fee." Iroh nodded at Katie, Julia didn't seem to be paying attintion to them, but moreso to Zuko.
"I see. Tell me about the school." Iroh told her, Zuko couldn't care less.
"The teachers are really good. Their smart and expect nothing but the best from their pupils. The dorm rooms there are split into two buildings. A girl's dorm and a boy's dorm. The occupants are assined roommates, two to a room. The boys arn't allowed in the girl's dorm after eight or before nine." Iroh laughed and looked at his nephew.
"Hear that Zuko? No peeking in on the girls while they are changing." Zuko blushed and looked out the window. He never really planned to do that anyway.
When the train pulled into the station near the school, Zuko gatherd his bags, and everyone else gatherd theirs. Appa had been walking behind them the whole time, and no one ever noticed! How was that possable? Don't ask. The gang went upto the main desk and asked if the three coudl be enrolled. The person at the desk nodded and he had to talk to the three. While the other four went to get their scheduals, and dorm room assinments. Their classes would start the next day, so they could have a day to look around the school. Julia went to the girl's dorm and looked at the dorm card she was given, 36. She was also given a key, because it was manditory for the students to keep their rooms locked. She walked into her unlocked room and gasped at the room. Velvit curtains hung on the window on the east wall from the west door, and 2 big, pink canopy beds sat side by side, only seperated by one end table on both sides. Two vanity mirrors, and two dressers. Julia's was on the east side beside the window, while her roommate's was on the other side. The room even featured two japanese changing things with cherry blossoms as a designe. Julia began to unpack her clothes and books from her bags, and place her clothes in her wardrobe, and her books on the shelf. She heard the door knob turn, signaling someone else had the same room as her! She quickly stood up and awaited to see her roommate.
Katara walked in! The two were glad they had a room together, Julia was Katara's only female friend sofar, and Katara was Julia's only female friend ever! Katara had nothing to really unpack, so they compaired Scheduals. They had a few classes together:
Waterbending,
English,
Math,
Music.
Katara saw that on Julia's schedual, she had Kenpo third period. Julia didn't seem like the type of girl to really study kenpo.
"Im actually taking it to help my gym grade. Pluse, I need some way to protect myself incase anything bad happend." Julia explained, Katara agreed with that logic. As the two left their dorm room to explore the ground, they saw them. The pack of sluts. Three blonds, wearing pink blouses, and pink skirts, High heels, and thin bodies. Their faces, were flawless, and they wore alot of make-up. They gave Katara and Julia a nasty look, and just kept walking, with their back's strait, their breasts large, and their head irect. They walked like super modles. Their hair was long, and extreamly managable. Julia and Katara ignored them and kept exploring the grounds.
Zuko was buisy unpacking his things when his door knob began to turn. The guy's dorms wern't like the girls' dorms. The beds wern't a conopy, and the room wasn't pink. The walls were a pale green, and the carpet was red. The window was the same, but with green curtains. The beds were red, so the basic decore of the room was Green and Red. When his doorknob began to turn, he payed no mind to it; Thinking he'd get some quiet, scrawny roommate that wouldn't talk back. But who walked in the door really suprised him.
He turned around and saw the avatar standing in the doorway. Without that goofy hat to hide his face. The two's eyes widend, and they pointed at eachother.
"YOUR MY ROOMMATE?" They screamed in unison. Aang backing twords the door to ask for a re-assining, Zuko ready to shoot fire balls at him. Friends on the girl's side share a room, But enemies on the Boy's side share a room what will happen for the rest of the year?
omg. :D Isn't this nicce? I liiiiiike it. I hope you Liiiiiiike it. Im really tired, and the computer is really crappy right now, so im not going to bother to run it through a spell check.
