A/N: Hey hey, this be Chas and Caitlin. We were bored one day so we decided to write this. Yes, you can smoke cinnamon sticks, we should know, we went outside and smoked one. They actually taste really good too...we did all the things we mention that have nothing to do with the Avatar characters showed up (ie. We actually smoked a cinnamon stick two actually, sprayed Glade on the smoke detector and tried on Caitlin's mother's fur coats)
"You look good!" Chas commented loudly to her friend Caitlin as she bit down on her cinnamon stick. "Red's a fuzzy color." Chas twirled in front of the mirror, surveying her own outfit, which was blue. She nibbled the end of the cinnamon stick again and took a bite of pumpkin.
"TUE thinks TUE looks like a freaky Geisha." Caitlin replied, looking down at her black and red Japanese silk dress. She sucked on her own cinnamon stick. "But as long as you don't do Opium, I'm good."
"Coming from the girl who is convinced I got her addicted to smoking cinnamon..." Chas took a drag of her currently unlit cinnamon stick. "We should go for another round in a couple minutes..."
"Alright, fine. Let's just go now and get it over with." Caitlin said, pulling out her lighter and heading for the door. She put on her black silk sandals as she went, picking up a campfire lighter on her way out the door.
"YAY!" Chas took her cinnamon sticks and hid them behind her back, flipping off the smoke detector as she followed her best friend out into the hall. She turned around quickly and sprayed Lysol on the smoke detector. "Just in case it goes off if we smoke in here."
"We're not gonna be stupid, Chas." Caitlin muttered, unlocking the door and heading down the stairs towards the back door.
"Okay, fine..." Chas rolled her eyes. She jumped out the door and hid around the corner where she and Caitlin would smoke cinnamon sticks. Chas took Caitlin's lighter and lit ablaze her cinnamon stick. "Behold, the perfect smoke. Slight ridge to catch embers, thick, curved to keep the smoke out of your face, flavorful..." Chas took a drag on the brown stick and sighed in contentment.
"Yeah, ok, whatever Chas." Caitlin said, taking a drag from her own cinnamon stick. Just then, there was a splash and a scream from the direction of the pool. "Liam's swimming. Let's hope he drowned." Caitlin said jovially. There was another splash, a THUNK and then a more manly scream.
"Let's save who ever screamed that, because that was NOT your brother," Chas coughed. She put her cinnamon stick in her mouth, sensing a strange stare sent her way. "I refuse to abandon the perfect smoke! NONONONO! You find something this good once in a bloody blue moon!" The red head stalked towards the pool in anger.
"Well, he DOES scream like a girl." Caitlin said, running after her friend. The duo stopped at the top of the embankment over Caitlin's large pool and unfinished pool house, and after a moment the lit cinnamon stick fell out of Caitlin's mouth and onto her foot, making her scream.
"HA! IT WASN'T MY FAULT!" Chas screamed at the top of her lungs, accompanied by a steady stream of blue smoke. "So, who's drown--" Chas dropped her own smoke upon seeing the figures, but she dove to avoid letting the cinnamon stick touch the wet grass, barely saving the brown object.
"Chas, I think I have have Midnight Sun Madness. Maybe Bertrand made little Bertrands with Spectra. Maybe..." Caitlin trailed off, seeing as some of the more dangerous-looking people in the motley group below them turned towards the duo. Namely, a girl with long black hair, a boy with spiky hair and a scar, a tall Gothic-looking girl with longer black hair in long strands and a little girl in green and yellow. "Maybe Zuko looks really hot after he's just climbed out of my pool." Caitlin decided, a fangirly look on her face.
"CAI! CAI!" Chas dug her cinnamon stick cigarette into her friend's foot to snap her out of it. One of the figures moved her arms in flowing motions and all the water in Caitlin's pool splashed over Chas, putting her smoke. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Suddenly, an idea occurred to Chas when she noticed how hot Sokka looked. "YOU HAVE DISHONORED THE CULT OF THE SACRED CINNAMON CIGARETTE! You are bringing dishonor to your family, to your culture and to your world! The only way to redeem yourself is to offer up one of your males as an offering." The redhead adjusted her gold glasses and smiled maniacally.
Caitlin stopped hopping on one foot and screaming long enough to smack her friend as hard as she could with a crescent kick.
"If I could bend, you would be DEAD! We have people in and around my pool that can bend elements that would hurt very BADLY!" Caitlin hissed. She retreated from the edge of the embankment for a moment and came back with a board, running and jumping on and sliding down. It hit the edge of the cement retaining wall and she jumped, making a front kick in the process. But it didn't work all that well to give her momentum, because she plummeted into the pool like a stone. Caitlin resurfaced and wiped makeup and white exfoliant off her face.
"It appears that we have appeared in the middle of the property of several Geishas." An old man with gray hair and large sideburns said. Caitlin paid no heed and motioned to her friend.
"Chas! Water's great!"
"No...no...no..." Chas fell to the ground. "MY SMOKE!" her eyes filled with tears. "I want my compensation. YOU'RE COMING WITH ME!" she ran down the hill and jumped over the retaining wall and grabbed Sokka by the arm before turning sheepishly to Zuko and Katara.
"Could you guys help me out?" Chas asked, still holding Sokka in a death-grip.
"You're kidding, right? I want nothing to do with you and your stupidity!" Zuko snapped, backing away with his hands up in defense.
"Chas! Let the poor guy go!" Caitlin called, getting out of the pool and wiping brown and red hair out of her face. "He's defenseless... And stuff!" Caitlin continued, shaking more hair out of her face and wringing out part of her skirt.
"Can I suggest something? We should get inside before someone sees us." Mai, who had been hiding in the back of the pool house, said. Caitlin nodded and crossed to Chas.
"Chas?" She asked, giving her best friend a 'look'. Chas was glaring at Zuko. Her cinnamon stick had dried, and she proceeded to see the barbecue. She lit her smoke again and advanced on Zuko with a look of terrifying determination and malice. Zuko was looking slightly afraid as the red haired girl lifted the glowing cinnamon stick in an attack pose.
"STUPIDITY! STUPIDITY!"The teenager screamed, her eyes flaring a strange mix between rage and...no, just rage. "YOU DISHONORABLE BASTARD!" she was screaming. She lounged at him, ready to drive the perfect smoke into the flesh of his arm.
Mai dove between the fighters, flinging her arms in front of her and shooting several knives at Chas.
"Stop bloody fighting! I swear, if you people are going to be infants, I will go get the bloody diapers! Everybody up the stairs and into the house!" Caitlin was screaming, grabbing the nearest person and shoving them in the general direction of the stairs up to the house. That person happened to be Iroh.
"HEY YOU BITCH!" Chas screamed. She shut her eyes. 'I don't believe in knives...' she thought. 'No way can I dodge...my only hope is my sheer disrespect for reality...'
But the knives never actually reached her. A block of earth had come up in front of her and the knives had stuck in it.
"As much as I love to see someone get stuck to a wall, we need to get inside." It was Aang talking. "It's starting to rain."
"Can you let go of me?" Sokka asked, prying at the arm Chas was holding.
"Let's go, move it already then!" Jun began to yell, pushing several more people towards the stairs. Caitlin sighed. It was going to be a long day, and she figured they would never get to the party now.
