A MONSTER!
"Hey Bumi, what's up?" said an all-too-familiar voice behind me. I grinned toothily, already planning some awesome mail-carrier sliding, trouble-making, and altogether fun-having!
"Nothing much, just the sky, the stars, and everything else above eye-" I began, stopping in horror as I turned around.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"AANG! LOOK OUT!" I screamed, grabbing his arm in sheer terror and running away before the monster standing behind him could react and catch us.
"Dude! What's wrong!" he panted as we ran.
"Don't talk! It might still be following us, we have to run!" I shrieked back.
After about 10 minutes of running, we ducked behind a cabbage cart.
"Jeeze, Bumi! What'd you see that freaked you out so much?" Aang asked, wheezing from running so much, obviously more used to flight.
"There was this huge monster behind you! It was huge, bigger than that house! With huge teeth and gigantic eyes! It was just opening its mouth… TO EAT YOU!" I exclaimed, summing it up as best I could.
Aang looked startled for a second, then raised an eyebrow inquisitively. "Uh, Bumi, did this 'monster' happen to have a blue arrow on its head… and white fur?"
"Yeah!" I gasped in astonishment. "How did you know? Was it some horrible creature that followed you from the air temple?"
Aang laughed and rolled his eyes. "Bumi. That was Appa. He's my flying bison. He wasn't going to eat anyone!"
I stared in astonishment for a second, before an idea popped in my mind.
"OH COOL! Can I ride him?"
"Anytime, buddy," he replied, shaking his head with a laugh. "Anytime."
A/N: Okay, there's an actual story behind this one. You see, one day, I was randomly surfing ffn for something to read (uh, duh) but nothing was appealing to my present mood. So, I decided to put in something that no one would ever think to write. I saw the name Bumi, and I saw the name Appa. Then I thought, "Hey, what the heck?" and hit horror too, just for the fun on it. There were no results. Then, I got rid of the "horror" part, and there's NO fanfiction under Bumi/Appa. I had to do something. So, I made this. It's really stupid, but gimme some credit! I was bored, it's a hard concept without either Bumi wanting some flying bison steak, or Appa developing a carnivorous diet. I can't really imagine either happening (well, I might be able to picture Bumi running after Appa with a fork, a knife, and a bib around his neck, but the other is totally inconceivable. Great, now I have to write that, too. Just perfect.)
So, yeah, read, review. All that crap. Think about it this way: what would (insert religious/idolized leader here) do? (ex. What would Jesus do? What would Beyonce de? What would Buddha do? What would Obama do? What would Jose Jalapeño on a Stick do? etc.)
