Prologue~

You all remember the time where Katara and her brother Sokka found Aang in an iceberg near their home town. From that moment on, they had adventure of their life time: running from the fire nation and the banished prince, having fun in various location, learning something new, training, and meeting people. I suppose they forgot to include us. Yes, we were there to see the Avatar, meet him and his group at various locations, and the end of the 100 year war. Now, I'm getting ahead of myself.

When Katara found Aang, we were in the Earth Kingdom: refugee for nearly 5 years. We went through fire nation colonies to fire beaten earth villages. Some were lucky to escape the clutches of fire while others cursed it. We also came head on some fire nation camps. Fighting was my favorite thing to do, but sometimes, it was necessary to find peaceful ways out.

...

Idiot me, I forgot to introduce. My name is Austin. My friend, partner in crime, and my opposite is Rhushy. We were refugee from the Fire Nation.

Yes, you heard me: FIRE NATION.

What? You thought all fire people are living happy lives in the island as soldiers controlled the villages? My memories from there wasn't a pretty one.

For one thing, I'm a water-bender. I'll tell you the story of how I got there some other time.

Now, turning over to you, Rhu.

-Wait, what? Me? Oh, sure, thanks.

I'm Rhushy: his friend, partner in crime, and what was the last one? and lov-, never-mind.

I didn't have a so called wonderful life either even though I am a fire-bender. Defective one. I had some flames come out of my elbows or knees when I was younger. People teased and bullied me for it. I was also clumsy. I rarely fire-bend in school. Austin was the one who helped me the most. He made the defectiveness into an advantage. Plus, I had to hide my bending during all the years in refugee, only using them when we were in danger.

...Hey!

-Sorry, I believe that's enough for a prologue! Don't want to give all away! *nudge Rhu**he grumbled*

For the next chapter, we will be in the middle of nowhere! About a month before the discovery of Aang. Don't worry, I will put up where the gaang was during our wondering! Enjoy the short prolong.

-Give me that!

We will be alternating the thought process throughout the story. To show who is thinking we will be doing this:

~Rhushy~

That indicate I am doing the narration. Some scene may be replayed but through the other person thoughts, so I hope you don't get too confused!

-Okay, you done? Yes? Thanks, I'm taking that!

I believe that's it! Safe travels!
