Hi guys! So I hope you like the story and i also wanted to say sorry if Maya is not so much out there yet! I really didn't want to mess the chemistry that was already there with the original trio, so i hope it was enough. Also for the first couple chapter I'm going to try to write it close enought to the canon as possible, so enjoy!
"It's not getting away from me this time. Watch and learn, ladies. This is how a man catches a fish!"
"Right," I said watching Sokka fail miserably to catch a fish. It was a pretty warm day, the clouds lifted and revealed the first light for spring, and I was pretty excited. Living in the South Pole is constantly cold, but especially in the winter.
I looked over to Katara as she took off her glove,revealing her naked brown hand, preparing to waterbend. I always admired her stuborrness to learn waterbending, dispite the lack of supportiveness from her grandmother or Sokka. It wasn't like they didn't care about her, but that being a homemaker was more important.
Howver, I cared for her bending. I was actually jealous at times. Sure, she was the last southern water bender in the whole south pole, but at least she could sleep, having some type of hope of knowing there were more people like her in this godforsaken world, who knew how to waterbend. Unlike me, who for the entire world knows I was the last living airbender.
"Whoa!" I exclaimed as the canoe swiftly moved through the water, shaking me from my daze.
"Go left!Go left!" Katara yelled commanding Sokka to stir.
"Hold on!" I said trying to push the air forward to slow us down.
"What are you doing Maya?" Sokka yelled as the wind blew his hood over his face "I can't see! Aww!"
With sudden force the canoe crashed onto the piece of ice, almost sending sokka flying into the water, but without realizing I was able to grab a hold of his foot.
"You call that left?"
"Well if you don't like my steering maybe you should of waterbended us out of there, or better yet Kai could have flew us out of there,"
"Are you blaming us?" I said ready to blow him into the water.
"I knew I should have left you home, leave it to a couple of girls to mess things up."
"You are the most self centered, irrational, buttbrain I've ever met and I'm embarrassed to be related to you!" Katara yelled sending waves of water crashing into the iceberg. Although I was the hot head and Katara was my more rational half, she too had a dark side.
"Katara," Sokka and I whimpered as the iceberg began to crack, sending loads of ice falling into the water.
"Ever since mom died I have been stuck doing all the chores while you got to go around playing soldier!"
"Calm down!" Sokka exclaimed trying to get Katarra from unleashing a too powerful wrath.
"Have you ever smelled your socks? Not pleasant!"
"Katara-"
"No!" Katara interrupted "you're on your own!"
Her anger split the ice in half, sending a massively powerful wave out, almost flipping us over.
"Look Katara you've gone from weird to freekish,"
"You mean I did that?" she asked as a small grin formed on her mouth.
"Yup, that was the most awsome thing-" I began to say before a bright lightblue light began to rise from the water. It was like a balloon rising to the sky, we layed there, awestrucken from such a sight. But, inside there seemed to be a figure of a small boy and a monster inside, frozen, reaviling bright white eyes.
"It's alive we have to help!" Katara yelled grabbing Sokka's sword.
"Katara wait!" I exclaimed chasing her.
"We don't even know what that thing is," Sokka added. But without heitation Katara began to to hit the iceberg before puncturing it and sending a powerful light into the indigo sky.
Without understanding the small glowing boy rose above us, before Katara caught his falling body. The boy looked to be about ten wearing orange and yellow robes, and had an arrow like tatto running down his head..
"Whoa, what is he?" I asked before Sokka began poking his head.
"Stop that!" Katara said pushing his spear away. I leaned in closer before the small boy began to open his eye's, revealing two ghostly gray orbs.
"I need to ask you something,"
"What?" Katara replied.
"Please come closer,"
"What is it?"
"Will you go penguin sledding with me?" Revealing a wide grin.
"Umm yeah, sure."
"Whoa," the boy began before rising off the ground "what's going on here?"
"I don't know who are you, how did you get into the ice?" Sokka asked pointing towards the iced carcass.
"Please ignore him," I said before the boy franticly began to climb the ice.
We walked around before suddenly stopping, and starring at the small boy inside the mouth gigantic fury monster.
"What is that?" I asked worriedly not knowing if it was friendly, or not.
"He's Appa my flying bison!"
"Right and this is Katara my flying sister," Sokka said sarcastically. But suddenly the bison began to huff and puff and sneezed, releasing mucus all over Sokka.
"Aww!" he yelled rubbing the green jelly all over the white snow.
"Don't worry that'll wash out. So do you live around here?"
"Don't answer that!" Sokka exlaimed "he probably signaled the fire nation with that giant light."
"I'm so sure, look at that evil grin," I said.
"Anyway, the paranoid one is my brother Sokka and she's my bestfriend Kai," Katara said pointing towards us "you never told us your name?"
"I'm.. ..ACHOO!" he sneezed sending himself more than 10 feet into the air "I'm Aang."
"You just sneezed 10 feet in the air,"
"Really? It felt like more,"
"No way," I began as my heart raced faster than a dragon fish's wings "you're an airbender!"
"Sure am," Aang said nonchalant.
"Flying bison, giant lightbeams, aibenders this is way too much for me. I'm suffering midnight sun fever, I think I need to go home to where stuff makes sense." Sokka said walking away, before realizing we were on a block of ice.
"Well if you guys are stuck me and Appa can give you a life," Aaang said jumping to Appa's head.
"We'll love a ride," Katara and I said walking over to climb up Appa.
"No, we're not getting on top of that flying mucus monster," Sokka said while Aang helped us up.
"Do you have any other idea how you're getting home?" I asked.
"Yeah Sokka," Katara added "do you expect some other flying monster to come along and give you a ride home, you know, before you freeze to death?"
Sokka sighed, not knowing any other idea, he climbed on top of Appa as we made room for him. But I really couldn't care, all I cared for was the fact that I finally met another Airbender.
"First time flyers hold on tight. Appa yip-yip!" Aang exclaimed pulling the reins. Appa gave a loud moan, before lifting his tail and jumping out, and landing into the water
"Wow, how impressive." Sokka sarcastically remarked.
"Sokka, really? Can you ever shut your mouth?" I replied.
"Don't worry just a little rest and he'll be soaring through the sky. You'll see,"Aang said, sending Sokka to throw his head back and give a long sigh. I leaned forward ready to ask the kid about a hundred questions, but, along with Katara, realized he looked at her a little too long. I grinned, while laughter secretly flooded in me.
"Why are you smiling at me like that?"
"Oh was I smiling?" he said before quickly turning away blushing.
"Anyway," I began "where are you from?"
"I'm from the Southern Air temple."
"Really," I said grinning from ear to ear "are you really an airbender?"
"Of course!" he exclaimed standing to his feet "that's why I have these tattoos, to show I'm an airbending master."
"No way, I'm an airbender too!"
"Really?"
"Yeah! I thought I was the only airbender left , but now I found an air bending master! This is not happening!"
"Wait, what do you mean the last airbender?"
"Well didn't you hear a hundred-" I began.
"Maybe we should talk about this later," Katara began interrupting me "I mean we all really need our rest, especially Aang."
"Whatever," I moaned, before forcing myself to lie next to Sokka, but I didn't care. All I kept thinking was that my destiny was soon going to unfold itself before me, and that Katara was crazy for thinking I would even be able to close my eyes! However, like how Katara is usually right, I slowly began to become unconscious and the world turned silent.
So i hoped you enjoyed that because i enjoyed writing that! I just wanted to say that and to please review to tell me anything i need to work on, or otherwise! I have the second Chapter almost written so I'll be sure to post it probably on friday, so look out for that!(:
