New Life
Ch. 1
The Headband
On Ji
We were all dancing and having the best time we have had probably in our whole lives
I saw Kuzon panic when the headmaster walked into his 'secret cave dance party'
"GET HIM! THE ONE WITH THE HEADBAND!" he barked.
I tied my headband around my head around with some other people who mimicked Kuzon. I made sure they saw I wasn't actually him as they looked confused and panicked. It was kind of funny by the time everyone in the room did it just to save one person.
I then noticed Kuzon running through these corridors with his family or friends or something.
I wanted to see where he was going so I followed quickly after him. They ran into what looked like a dead end but they kept running and I heard the sound of big rocks running into each other. I turned around tentatively and saw a wall that wasn't there previously.
Could it be?
"Uhm, what was that?" I heard a young woman say, probably the same one Kuzon was dancing with,
Four frightened faces quickly glanced at each other and I whispered ever so quietly," whats gonna happen to me?"
The other girl, pretty tine with very odd colored eyes looking in a different direction said, " you are coming with us I supose"
That got her some looks of shock.
Then I saw Kuzon hold out a hand and say, just follow me and I will explain later.
Running for what seemed like my life to just come out of the cave. "was all of that running really necessary?"
Apparently it was since the small girl said "there coming!" as if on queue.
"here climb up on the tail and sit in the saddle" said the older boy motioning to me quickly
"yip yip!" I heard Kuzon's voice say from a little ways ahead of my. Maybe on a head?
Then it beat its tail and I saw the island quickly shrink and the clouds grow and I realized we were flying, and got some airsikness…
"WHAT IN AGNI'S NAME IS THIS THING!"
"a flying bison!" they seemed to say sarcastically.
Frankly, I thought it was a dream until we landed and I fell pretty hard off this flying bi sing.
I wasn't sure what to say or do when they were huddled a little bit away from me speaking in urgent, hushed whispers.
Now who wouldn't be nervous in a situation like this? But running, as I found out was just dumb. Since I got encased in rock a bit too tight for my liking.
"What do you know!" I heard a very forceful voice say. I recognized the girl from the girl Kuzon was dancing with back at the cave.
"W-w-ell I was inches away from the wall when this chick over there-" I pointed my head in the direction of the little girl with strange eyes,"put a wall of stone between the tunnel and opening where the party was being held."
"she hasn't picked up on this yet…are you sure this was a school for regular kids?" I heard the boy say sarcastically.
"HELLOOO! I AM RIGHT HERE. And I guessed she was earth bending but Im not sure why which Is what I would like to know."
Kuzon spoke first, "On Ji, my name isn't Kuzon, its Aang and this is Toph, Katara, and Sokka."
"wait, but why-" I started to say.
"I am an air bender and also the Avatar. " my eyes widened so much im surprised they didn't fall out "Toph is an earthbender and my earth bending teacher. Katara is my water bending teacher and master healer. And this is Sokka, the Idea Guy with the boomerang." Sokka's eyes widened and started to protest before Ku- I mean Aang finished "this is Appa, my flying bison and he weighs ten tons and is fluffy and LOVES apples! And lastly that monkey you helped ,me hide is Momo and he is actually a BatLemur."
Pleading eyes stared at me to understand and probably not to rat them out, well three pairs of eyes with one looking off to the side, one sleeping and one eating random berries off bushes.
"so I am guessing you want me to keep this secret am I right? Because like I said before, Im no tattletale" I replied hoping to lighten the mood.
"AWESOME! So now you are officially apart of TEAM AVATAR!" Aang said oh so dramatically.
"uhh, first can I get out of this!"
Aang did a quick flick of his wrist and I got out just a bit dusty.
Sokka then tried to convince him to be named The BoomerAANGs and by then Katara whisked me away to explain some things to me. Mostly things like where I sleep and when we eat and things like that.
Then I heard of the "invasion" they called it.
It scared me to think this little army of two hundred men or so will go up against the fire nation. And not just the army, the specially trained warrior-guards who protect the Fire Lord himself.
"so am I ever going to be able to go back. I don't want my family worrying about me." I said nervous of my fate with the avatar coming up.
"yea, On JI, about that, we are on a very tight schedule with the invasion I told you about." Katara replied, yet speking to me as if I was her child.
"well can you drop me off after the invasion?
"Yea…actually after the invasion, there is a comet, maybe you have heard of it, called Sozins Comet."
"it's the comet that Fire Lord Sozin used to begin the war"
"yes, yes it is, well it is coming back this year and Aang has to stop Fire Lord Ozai from destroying the world with its power"
"so am I EVER getting to go back home!" I was starting to get angry now at the fact I might not get to see my family, friends or boyfriend ever again.
"once Aang defeats the Fire Lord then yea! Bur we will all bond and be best of friends by the time the comet and its power leaves!"
"ok." Katara seems to speak with too much enthusiasm. "can I go lay down now?"
"of course you can" Katara said with a friendly pat on the back.
Ok, this is just weird.
That night my dreams were filled with a feeling of aprehension as we traveled on Appa. But by the end of the dream we all started laughing like we have known each other for years while we were all floating on clouds of the fluffiest sorts.
Hmm, peculiar dreams I thought as I woke up for the first time with my new companions at my side.
