Quote Me on That, Won't Ya?

Chapter 1: I hope my legs don't die before I do.

I awoke, finding myself freezing cold. I got up and noticed something very strange. For one thing, the wall ahead of me was so BIG. I mean, it towered over me and made me feel tiny. I didn't like that feeling. My arms shivered under the intense cold. Looking left and right, I didn't find anything that would give me shelter. I looked down and found myself wearing my usual clothes, actually, the clothes I wore when I got here. When I think about it, it was the same clothes I had when I started my weird Avatar journey. It was only, what, ten minutes? Knowing me, probably even less. There was a small noise behind me, like a twig cracking. HAH, like there would be a twig out here.

"Wha—"

I got up again, finding myself in some place warmer and more comfy. I think someone knocked me out in the cold outside. Who? I have no idea. I appreciated that I was somewhat warmer in here. However, this place lost all of its warm feeling when I found who were staring at me when I sat upright. Water benders were all glaring at me, most of the group was men, and the rest were teenagers. All of them, except for the kids, had weapons… pointed at me. A teenager poked at me, but was soon punished by another man by getting slapped on the back of the head. "Hel—"

As soon as I opened my mouth to talk, the weapons closed in. I shut up right away. The same boy that had been hit spoke first. "What are you doing here, stranger? You've wandered into the Northern Water Tribe's territory."

I didn't answer, I was afraid they were going to stab me as soon as I would open my mouth again. A tall man with a spear waved his hand and all weapons were placed to the side. "Speak."

"I don't know," I replied, staring right at the man with a blank expression. I had to find a lie that wasn't too far from the truth. "I remember being in my home and I now find myself here. You can throw me out if you wish."

Hey, that was the total truth! I'm getting better at this, giving out information, but not all of it! The same boy poked me again. He looked at me with disgust.

"How do we know she is not lying?" he asked.

"You're right," I answered, shocking everyone. I remained in my seated position. Nodding to the man who had asked me to speak, he seemed like the main man here. "You may throw me out into the cold. I shall find my way back home."

"You're only a girl," another boy scoffed.

"Yes, that's why I'll go home by myself and not with an escort."

Silence. I JUST DISSED YOU! HAHAHAHA! I kept my laughter inside, but had a cocky grin on my face. The boy flushed in embarrassment and anger. He looked about my age, okay, maybe two or three years older. Jet-black hair that goes to his shoulders and fiery blue eyes, Katara should meet him. I held back another laugh.

"Now, if you all would be so kind as to throw me ou—"

"No, you shall be in court."

WHAT? I don't want to be in court! That's a horrible place that makes me feel dumb because I can't answer any of the questions without having to take out half the syllables! I started to panic when the main man laughed lightly.

"Don't worry, you won't be interrogated," he said, chuckling. He helped me up and I was escorted to this SUPER large kingdom. As soon as I was inside, I was hurried to a seat in front of a line of… superiors, I guess. I was also forced to sit in traditional style from Japan. Great… I hope my legs don't die before I do.
