"..Don't dream it's over..." I hear Asami sing as I drift back into consciousness. One hand running through my hair, and the other intertwined in mine, we fit together flawlessly. I shift so she knows I'm awake.
"Damn Avatar, you sure can sleep." Her raven black hair glistens in the sunlight. I feel my cheeks flood with color and giggle. I force myself up, my cheeks still stained pink. The wind whips around me, my shoulder length mahogany hair dances with every gust. I lock eyes with Asami; her pale green orbs becoming thin disks of emerald in the sunlight, she stretches, throwing her arms in the air. I quickly grab her and pull her to her feet.
"We're going on an adventure." I whisper into her ear.
Cupping her face in my hands I feel the warmth of embarrassment spread across her face. She giggles "Okay."
The translucent dragonfly bunny spirits fly around leaving the distinct aroma of perfume in the air. We walk towards Iroh's Tea Shop, the damp grass tickling our feet with every step. For the first time in years my life is perfect. I've been living in Technicolor here in the spirit world for the past three years with Asami, everything is amplified. When she touches me every nerve in my body comes alive. I look at her and everything feels right, she and I are like an object and its reflection; one cannot exist without the other. I stop where I'm standing "Do you feel that?"
"I don't know Avatar you tell me."
"It just feels like there's something off with the spirit energy."
Suddenly there's a sharp pain in the center of my head, which slithers down my spine, causing my face to contort in pain.
Asami frowns "Are you alright?"
I smile as to not worry her "I'm fine"
I collapse to the floor, clutching my side and convulsing in pain. It's coming from everywhere. I hear Asami screaming, but it quickly becomes muddled. The pain forces my eyes shut, gasping for air I manage to choke out "G-ge-get me to Ba Sing Se."
