Fake Zu-Zu

"Hey Aang!" the teenager was tall; his dark hair hidden under a newsboy cap while a messenger bag was slung casually over his sweatered shoulder, banging against his jeans every second step. His head was bopping along slowly to the music being filtered into his head via a giant set of headphones. The girl that was calling him was clutching at her bag as it swung wildly over her shoulder. Her skinny jeans were being held up by her other hand; a small set of dark blue pumas were on her running feet, and her tank top was black. "Aang!" she called.
This time the voice reached past his headphones, and he stopped walking to pull them off, "Oh, hey Katara."
She took a few gasping breaths and placed her hands on her knees. "Aang, Zuko, you have to come see." She took his arm and ran in the direction she had just come from.
"Katar-whoa!" As they rounded a corner they stopped dead in their tracks. Parked on the school's student parking lot was giant motor home. Zuko was leaning out the window, looking smug at the stares he was getting. Beside the motor home, two figures were standing side by side, seemingly admiring the RV.
"I really don't see what's so great about it," said the short girl of the pair; she was wearing jeans and a pair of bright green converse. Her shirt was the same color of vibrant green, emblazoned with the words, 'Pedro Lacks Political Experience' in brown letters.
"It's like if Optimus Prime and a group of ninjas teamed up with Gandalf the White. That's how cool it is," the boy said putting hand on the motor home. He had a hand shoved into his brown pants, while a blue sweater adorned his lanky frame.
"Cool," said the girl approvingly, and when she heard Aang and Katara she turned. "Twinkle Toes, Sugar Queen. Look what Torchy here's rented for the summer."
"A motor home?" Aang said, walking towards it warily as if it was going to jump up and attack him, "Why?"
Zuko's head disappeared from the window and reappeared a few seconds later in black jeans and a red shirt on the ground. "Because, we are going on a roadtrip."
"I don't trust this Zuko," Katara whispered to Aang, "He's too nice, the real one must be locked up in a closet somewhere."
Aang laughed while Zuko stared at them, "You don't have to come, I just thought it would be fun." The group started at him. "What? I can't have fun?"
"No," Toph spoke up and walked over to Zuko, "You're the emo kid, no fun for you."
He glared at Toph before turning to the rest of them, "What else are you going to this summer?"
"He's got a point," Aang said smiling widely at the rest of the group, "can we see inside Zuko?"
Zuko nodded and the four tromped in after him, "Just try not to touch anything, it's rental."
The motor home was cramped at best; at the front were two chairs, one for the driver and one for the co-pilot. Toph immediately sat down in the drivers seat while Sokka took the co-pilot. Toph started talking into her hand, pretending it was some kind of walkie-talkie "We saw it. All craft prepare to retreat."
"You won't get another chance at this, Admiral." Replied Sokka into his own hand.
"We have no choice, General Calrissian. Our cruisers can't repel firepower of that magnitude."
"Han will have that shield down. We've got to give him more time!"
There was a slight pause then Toph yelled, "IT'S A TRAP!" and they both burst into laughter.
"While both you guys were behaving like the geeks that you are," Katara wandered over, arms crossed looking triumphant, "Aang, Zuko and I called the three bunk beds."
"Where are we going to sleep then?" asked Sokka looking crestfallen.
"You guys have to share the couch." Katara smiled wickedly and walked back to where Zuko and Aang were standing while Sokka and Toph both blushed and turned away from each other.
Above the driver's area was a small TV were Zuko had already set up his Guitar Hero, a DVD player and a small stereo system. Moving down the RV there was a couch behind the driver's seat and across from that were two chairs with a small table in between, This was followed by a small kitchen and a tiny booth where people could sit and eat. Finally, across from the three bunk beds was a small bathroom.
"Zuko what are we going to do about our clothes?" Katara asked, when she noticed the lack of storage.
"Pack light. We can stop and launder our stuff regularly." He looked vaguely excited. "Does that mean you're coming?"
Katara looked at her other three friends who were all nodding, "I guess we are."
"Great," Zuko jumped out of the RV and the others followed, "Meet me here tomorrow morning at 8:00 sharp."
They all nodded and Zuko went back into the RV, gunned it into life and pulled out of the parking lot.
"Now all we have to do is convince our parents." Sokka sighed, as he got into his car. Katara took the passenger seat, and Toph sat in the back. Aang waved his goodbye before putting on his headphones and starting his short walk home.
