Chapter One: The Start of Journeys

After the Council had told everyone what was happening, and after everyone had agreed to it (Katara didn't want Aang to be without her), they got to work.

Aang and Toph, as the only experienced earth-benders, went to the old part of the temples, cutting rocks off and shaping them into boats for those traveling by sea. A great few ships were needed, except for Katara and Sokka, so it took them most of the day.

The Guru, the Kyoshi Warriors, and Ursa were off gathering food.

Hakoda and the rest of the Water Tribe (not Katara) were helping rebuild their ships.

Katara was gathering the many jugs, and bringing them to the stream, filling them out with water-bending, then bringing them back.

Iroh and Zuko were given the task of coping the maps, and writing down the instructions on how to get to each place.

By the next day, everyone was done, and had worked fast. They woke up early to pack up.

Sokka and Katara got on Appa. Kazu would be using his bison, Nuji (and with him Mimi, his lemur), to get to Haru's village and Omashu. They could make boats for themselves there. Iroh and Zuko were going to use one of the smaller earth-made boats, as they only needed to pick up 8 people. Suki and Kita would be going to Kyoshi Island in another earth-made boats, but a larger one. Hakoda and Bato were going to use one of their boats to the swamp, and a few of the villages near-by. Toph, after a while, decided to use one of her boats, so she could see on her boat. June, one of the Kyoshi warriors, decided to go with her for seeing purposes. Ursa and Aki took another one of the earth-made boats.

That meant that the Guru, Tism, and 10 Water Tribe members would be going with Aang. Thankfully, they had both earth-made boats and water-tribe boats. They weren't took worried with the avatar with them.

Once food provisions and everything else was set, they set off, not knowing if they would live to see each other another day.
