Book three Destiny Chapter One: Ren and Sky
A now sixteen year old Ren stood in the courtyard and looked over the Yue Bay at the city. She had finally received her statue, and it stood in front of City Hall. It was very impressive in her opinion. It was her with a large rock in each hand. She now felt like one of the greats with that statue. She soon felt Hope lick her face. She laughed and ran her hand over her fur. She pulled a handful of dirt out of Hope's fur and shook her head. Ren pulled Hope into the middle of the courtyard and made her lay down. Ren started to walk away to get a bucket as Sky walked up the stairs of the temple. Ren returned with a bucket of soapy water and began to scrub Hope's shell. Sky walked over with a confused look until he saw Ren pull dirt off of Hope.
Sky picked up a brush and began to help Ren clean Hope. Hope smiled and thought about how she had earned her treat from Lee. Ren heard the radio which played a fast paced song and she started to move her head back and forth. Sky started to laugh at her and continued to clean Hope. Hope swung her tail, knocking Sky to the ground. The Beifongs with the exception of Lin were hiding to watch their plan unfold. Asami, Iroh, Lee, Mako, and Iroh's children were all hiding as well to watch how Ren and Sky would act. Ren ran over to help Sky up, but Hope knocked her onto Sky. Ren started to look around to avoid looking at Sky. Everyone looked at the two and sighed. Roku walked out from his hiding spot and was still disappointed in the two.
"Will you two kiss already," Roku said
Ren and Sky both looked in the direction of Roku's voice. Ren saw everyone hiding and turned red. She tried to get up but felt Sky grab her arm. She looked at her arm, then Sky. She saw his typical smile and closed her eyes and not long after felt his hand on her face. Before Ren could say anything she felt Sky's lips on her. Ren like every other time had flashbacks of her great grandparents kissing and Iroh and Korra kissing. She pushed away and stood up, soon followed by Sky.
"Katara," Ren said.
"Aang," Sky said.
"Iroh," Ren said
"Korra," Sky said.
"I refuse to believe this. I'm only sixteen and this can't be happening," Ren said.
"Finally," Bolin said.
Ren and Sky looked at everyone as they left their hiding spots. Ren then looked at Sky very confused. She had no idea what was going on and by the look on Sky's face he didn't either. Everyone laughed at the two and their confusion. Ren wanted to know why everyone was hiding and laughing.
"Well, since you two are so confused I guess we should tell you what is going on. We all made a plan to get you two lovebirds together. Hope was part of our plan, if you didn't figure that out," Mako said.
Ren eyed Hope. "You little traitor. I can't believe that you chose them over me, maybe you should sleep in one of their rooms tonight," Ren said.
Hope looked at Ren with hurt in her eyes. Ren looked at Hope and smiled. Ren would never could Hope out of her room. She still occasionally tried to fit Hope on her bed. Ren ran her hand over Hope's back before she decided to headbutt her. Ren felt Hope start to purr and she smiled. Ren's smile soon faded when she heard her grandparents, Lin, and parents heading toward the courtyard. Lin had made it very clear that Ren wasn't allowed to date Sky. Kai also made it very clear to Sky that Ren was to young for him. Tenzin would object only because Ren was his granddaughter and Ren was the biggest grandpa's girl in the world. Ren looked at everyone with pleading eyes and hoped that no one said anything. Ren looked over at her Aunt Ikki and saw the smirk on her face and wanted to cry.
"Ren and Sky are dating," Ikki said.
"Their what?!" Kai, Lin, and Tenzin yelled.
"Spirits Ikki, you couldn't let Ren or Sky say something?" Rohan said.
"On the count of three run like your life depends on it," Ren said.
Ren punched the ground with both her fist and sent a wave throughout the earth. She grabbed Sky's hand and pulled him down the temple stairs. Everyone watched as the two ran off. Suyin smiled at the thought Ren and Sky were having fun for once. Jinora smiled and thought about how her father protested her relationship with Kai. Kuvira smiled and thought of all the times she had to sneak around to see Baatar for a long time. Lee was just happy that Ren was happy. Tenzin looked at Lin and thought about what this opportunity meant for the press.
"This is a good thing I guess. I mean it could distract the press from everything that is going on at City Hall," Tenzin said.
Ren and Sky froze some water and sat down so they could propel themselves toward the city. When they finally arrived they started to slowly walk through the city. Ren started to notice people pointing and whispering at them as she looked around. She soon felt Sky usher her into a small shop. She started to look around and noticed that they were in a jewelry shop. She looked over at Sky who was talking to the owner of the shop and continued to look around. She looked up to see the owner gesture for her to come to the front of the shop. When she arrived at the front of the shop she saw two rings sitting on the counter. She looked at Sky who had a smile on his face before she ran her fingers over the two rings. She felt the metal and smiled as she noticed the detail in both rings. One ring had little square blocks with diamonds in each square, while the other ring had a woken pattern with black gemstones between the pattern. Ren touched the rings again before she hugged Sky.
"I ordered them a few weeks ago. I bought them as friendship rings, but I guess you can wear it as my girlfriend…I think you're my girlfriend. Anyway the one with the black gemstones is yours. It made me think of something an earthbender would wear when I was shown the design," Sky said.
"Yes I'm your girlfriend and it's perfect. You're right it does fit an earthbender," Ren said.
As Sky paid the owner Ren started to bend the ring in case she ever had to hide it. Sky smiled at her and shook his head while he thanked the owner again. When they walked out Ren began to pull at her sleeve. She really wanted to learn how to drive because Hope couldn't help her all the time. The only problem with that was only a handful of people could teach her. She could learn from Asami, Kuvira, Lin, Mako, or Sky but she knew that her Aunt Asami had been extremely busy since Ren turned fifteen. Ren started to pull Sky toward the Future Industries Warehouse as she was laughing. Ren was so busy laughing she wasn't paying attention to where she was going and she ended up running into President Kanan.
"Oh, President Kanan I'm sorry I didn't see you there. It is a pleasure to see you and you remember Chief Beifong's son Sky. I would assume that you being in Republic City means more meetings," Ren said.
"It is always a pleasure to see you Avatar Ren, please tell your family I say hello. Assistant Chief Beifong it is a pleasure to see you as well, please tell Chief Beifong I say hello. Unfortunately my presence here does mean more meetings. You and I both know that there are serious issues that need to be addressed immediately. You have been the peace during these meetings and I hope that you will be there," Kanan said.
"I will try my best. I'm really sorry for running into you," Ren said as she pulled Sky away.
When they finally arrived at the warehouse Ren explained to the employees that her Aunt Asami said she could have a satomobile if she wanted wanted one. Asami did tell her and Lee a few months ago if they wanted to learn how to drive to take someone who knew how to drive to Future Industries and pick out any satomobile they wanted. Everyone was shocked to find out Asami Sato was the Avatar's aunt. Ren then explained that Asami wasn't really her aunt she only called her that. One of the employees gave her a set of keys and pointed her in the direction of the satomobile. It took Ren awhile to get use to it but once she did she took off. Sky hung onto the satomobile like his life depended on it.
"Ren, there is a speed limit. Look out for that satomobile," Sky said. "We are going to get pulled over."
She swerved around the satomobile quickly and turned back onto her side of the road. As soon as Sky said something they heard sirens behind them. Ren turned around quickly before she turned her attention ahead. She looked at Sky and gestured to the steering wheel before she jumped up on the seats. Sky quickly grabbed the steering wheel before they could crash. The officer in the satomobile sent a metal cable at their tire and Ren sent it back, taking out the police satomobile. Sky looked back when he heard the crash to see the satomobile smashed into a building. He sighed and shook his head. Ren had just destroyed one of the new vehicles that Future Industries donated to the police force. Ren looked up and saw a police airship sending cables toward their satomobile. Ren's first reaction was to grab the cable and pull them, which ended with the cables being pulled from the airship.
"Spirits Ren, are you going to spare any of the new things the police force received?" Sky asked.
Ren smiled a little before she noticed three more satomobiles. She groaned at the sight and sent the cables she now had toward one of the vehicles. She grabbed onto its tires and pulled it into one of the other satomobiles. When the got close to the Yue Bay Ren wrapped a cable around Sky and jumped. The two landed in the bay and quickly went under water to avoid the police speed boats and river rescue. When they felt life they couldn't hold their breath any longer they rose to the surface and looked back. Sky splashed Ren for all the trouble she had caused Ren laughed because she had fun. The two swam back to the island as fast as the could hoping that they reached Lin before an officer did. When they arrived at the island the two ran up the stairs to meet a very unhappy Asami, Lin, and Tenzin. The two smiled before Lin started to express how angry she was.
"You destroyed three of my new satomobiles and a new airship. Let's not forget all the officers you injured. You caused quite a lot of damage and you are extremely lucky that no one saw you. In fact your lucky I don't kick the both of you in the ass," Lin said.
Ren and Sky laughed as they high-fived. Everyone walked out into the courtyard after hearing Lin they figured they should come and check out what was wrong. Everyone saw Ren and Sky laughing and Asami,Lin, and Tenzin very unhappy. No one knew what was going one, but they knew it wouldn't be long before they found out.
"Ren, we know that the press should be distracted from the problems at City Hall, but that was a not the way to go about it," Tenzin said.
"Are you kidding me? I can see tomorrow's headlines already. Avatar Ren and Assistant Chief Beifong are now a couple. Mystery driver couldn't be caught by the police. Maybe Chief Beifong shouldn't be chief anymore," Ren said putting her hands up for emphasis.
Lin glared at Ren and Ren dropped her hands. Ren started to regret what she said and dropped her head a little. She only started to perk up when she heard Suyin laugh. She looked up at the older woman and smiled a bit. Lin glared at her sister who didn't seem to care, just like when they were younger. Bumi and Kya soon joined Suyin at laughing at Ren's comment, which made smile a bit more. Sky started to laugh and they were all testing Lin's patience.
"What is so damn funny?" Lin asked.
"You are so worried about trying to fill mom's footsteps and make her proud that you don't realize that you already have. Let's not forget to mention that you caught Korra but couldn't catch Ren and Sky," Su said trying not to laugh.
"Yea Lin, you're a great chief and Republic City is in great hands with you in charge. I think we are all screwed when Sky becomes chief," Ren said nudging Sky.
"I find that very hurtful," Sky said.
"Toughen up man, you're suppose to be a Beifong. The last time I checked Beifongs are strong," Ren said.
This time all the Beifongs but Sky laughed. Ren nudged him and Sky pouted. Ren pouted to mock him which only made him pout more. Ren looked over at her grandfather and knew he would end the fun. Ren shook her head and thought about how her grandfather was always serious. She could never recall a time where he hadn't been serious. She didn't know if it was his personality or because she was the Avatar.
"Ren, you need to take what you did seriously. President Ekta will not appreciate today's actions, especially when she finds out the Avatar was behind them. You already know that we have serious issues to tend to at City Hall because problems are now arising. I wish you would understand that the council and world leader need your undivided attention right now," Tenzin said.
Ren walked over to Tenzin and started to poke Tenzin. "C'mon Grandpa Tenzin you have to have fun every once in awhile. Fun is good for you. You are always so serious," Ren said as she continued to poke Tenzin in the face.
"Ren, please stop poking me," Tenzin said.
"No, I'm actually having fun," Ren said.
"We are terrible influences. She torments Tenzin just as much as we do," Kya said.
"It is funny though," Bumi said.
"I agree," Kya said.
Ren continued to poke Tenzin in the face even as he protested. Ren laughed as she continued to poke her grandfather. Every time he thought he blocked her one way she would maneuver around him to continue to poke him. She then turned her attention to Lin and began to poke her in the face as well. Lin rolled her eyes as the young Avatar poked her and Tenzin in the face.
"Lin you should have fun once in a while too. I mean maybe you guys could live to be as old as Toph, or great Gran-Gran Katara. They lived a long time because they had fun unlike you two," Ren said poking Lin and Tenzin in the face. "You need to stop being so serious and boring. Let's fight, it could be a training exercise. That's fun."
Ren continued to poke Lin in the face, testing her patience. Sky soon joined in on poking Lin in the face which only tested her patience more. "Yea c'mon mom you always say how you want to beat the shit out of said if ever given the opportunity to that you would put her in bed for a week," he said.
"As if she could. I've beaten her my whole life. You know you want to fight Grandpa Tenzin, maybe not fight as in fighting though. You know what I'm getting at though, I mean like training. Well no not really because you said if I ever dated Sky you would go against your pacifist way to show him what would happen if he hurt your precious granddaughter," Ren said.
"If we do will you stop poking Lin and I in the face?" Tenzin asked.
"Perhaps, depends on how much fun this fight is," Ren said.
Tenzin sighed as everyone backed out of the middle of the courtyard. Ren and Sky stood on one side while Lin and Tenzin stood on the the other. Lin and Ren used their typically technique of listen and wait. Sky sent the first move by pulling water out of the fountain and sending it toward Tenzin. Lin sent her cables toward Ren's wrist and Ren let her grab them. Once the cables were wrapped around her wrist Ren bent earth around her feet and just let Lin pull the cables forward. Ren bent the cables off of her wrist and watched as Lin fell back into the wall and smirked. Tenzin sent an air blast toward Ren and Sky jumped in front of her and made a water Shield but it didn't help. Ren and Sky fell to the ground, but Ren wouldn't let that stop her. She opened a hole in the ground before she fell in and quickly closed it. She started to tunnel through the ground like the badger moles taught her. She soon felt Tenzin above her so she opened a small hole and pulled him in.
"I hope you're not scared of the dark Grandpa Tenzin," she said before she jumped through the hole and closed it.
When Ren saw Lin and Sky she saw that Sky was losing terribly to Lin. She sighed and shook her head at the sight. She sent an air blast and knocked Lin to the ground. Lin looked up and started to look around for Tenzin. Ren smirked and pointed to the ground. Sky tried to grab Lin's wrist with a water whip, but missed because Lin moved out of the way. Ren slapped her forehead and sighed.
"Sky, I got this," she said.
Sky backed away and Lin and Ren stood in the courtyard facing each other. Lin sent two large rocks and Ren easily dodged them. Lin sent her cables at Ren and twisted them to try and make it harder for Ren to avoid, but Ren still managed to avoid the cables. Ren then used her airbending to jump on the roof of the temple. Lin watched as Ren ran across the roof laughing. Lin preferred to stay on the ground where the odds were in favor a bit more.
"Are you going to use the old airbender technique of cut and run?" Lin asked.
Ren flipped off of the roof and removed Lin's armor quickly before she began to block her chi. "No, the chi blocker technique," she said. Lin fell to the ground and Ren opened a small hole for Tenzin to crawl out of the ground. When Tenzin popped his head out of the ground he saw Lin on the ground and shook his head as Lin growled at Ren. Ren sat down next to Lin and heard her say something about how she was in for it when Lin could move again. Ren rolled her eyes at Lin as Sky picked Lin's armor up and put it on the bench.
Ren felt Hope against her back, so she turned around. She saw Hope move her head toward the stables, so she stood up and followed the armadillo lion. When they reached the stables Hope stopped in front of Oogie's stable and Ren walked in. Ren placed her hand on his head and the sky bison opened his eyes. Ren walked over to his side and laid there before Hope walked over and placed her head on Ren's lap. As Sky was walking toward the stables he heard Ren singing. When he arrived at the stable saw Ren laying against Oogie with Hope's head on her lap, singing a song. When Oogie noticed Sky and he lifted his head and grunted. Ren giggled a little before she continued to sing. Sky slowly backed out of the stable wanting to make Oogie as comfortable as possible. When Ren noticed Oogie was asleep she poked Hope in the head and the two quietly walked out of the stable.
"Does anyone know how long he has?" Sky asked.
"No, only that he is approaching his final days. I feel bad for Grandpa Tenzin, I can't imagine what he is going through. I mean Oogie is very important to him and he had him since he was a young boy," Ren said.
"Ren, I know this is going to be hard to hear but maybe it's time for all of you to let go. Oogie is old, like you said your grandfather has had him since he was young and your grandfather is getting pretty old himself. I mean he has gone through a lot in his life, maybe it would be for the best," Sky said.
"No wonder Oogie hates you. Grandpa Tenzin won't let go of his best friend and I don't expect him to. You know that would be the same thing as me letting go of Hope. Oogie was the original airbender that I learned from. I would take my glider and we would spend I don't even know how long up in the sky. He taught me how to master the trick where I slam my glider on the ground and the huge air blast comes out. I'm sorry it will be hard for us to let go," Ren said.
Sky looked at Ren who looked like she wanted to cry. Sky grabbed Ren and hugged her and tried to soothe her. When Ren felt like she was okay the three walked up two the courtyard and Ren sat down next to Tenzin. She looked at him and realized Sky was right he really was getting old. She wrapped her arms around him and started to cry. Tenzin tried to make sense of what Ren was saying, but the only thing he could make out of her tears and rambling was Oogie. He remembered seeing straw in Hope's fur and Ren's hair a few times when she would come to the breakfast table. He then managed to hear her say something about her singing to him. He smiled and looked at the stables, thinking about how Oogie would appreciate Ren's kindness. He then laughed at the thought of Hope and Ren trying to fit in Oogie's stable with Oogie. Ren looked up at Tenzin and punched him in the arm.
"It's very comfortable and we fit, just fine. Oogie likes that I sit in there and sing," Ren said..
"She isn't kidding, they do fit in there just fine. He does seem to like her singing too. She sang him some song about lemurs and food. I don't really know," Sky said.
"It's called the hungry little lemur," Pema said as she and Ren laughed a little. "It's an old airbender song, in fact I think that was one of the very first songs Tenzin and I taught Ren. We all know how Ren can eat and how she was so intrigued by lemurs when she was younger. Tenzin thought that Ren would love to learn the song, and was he right she sang the song for days before she grew tired of it."
Ren smiled thinking of the day she learned the hungry little lemur song. Her Gran-Gran Pema set fruit out in front of her and her Grandpa Tenzin said they were going to teach her a song. They all started to eat before they sang. Ren listen to her Gran-Gran and once she thought she knew the words she started to sing with her. Pema wasn't joking either Ren must have sung that song for about a week before she grew sick of it. She eventually asked to learn a new song, and repeated the process of singing them until she grew sick of them. While Ren was remembering a good memory she had a flashback.
She saw a younger version of her great Grandpa Aang, and he looked defeated. She saw a younger version of her great Gran-Gran Katara and the moon spirit Yue when she was a human. She looked around and saw all the ice and finally realized where she was. She was in the North Pole, and if she was right it was when the Fire Nation tried to take over. She started to look around, but didn't see any Fire Nation soldiers. She looked over the wall and saw more Fire Nation ships then she could count. She gasped and looked at the young version of her great Grandfather Aang. She then saw the version of her great Grandfather Aang that she was use to. "It's coming Ren," he said.
"Wait, Come back. What's coming? What did all of that mean?" Ren asked.
Everyone looked at Ren who was looking around, panicking. Ren started to breathe heavily and sweat. She didn't know what that vision meant, and it worried her. The vision showed the Hundred Year War, a war she had studied and heard so much about. She knew what the Hundred Year War did to the world and she knew it didn't need another war. Her head started to hurt with all the thoughts running through her head. She started to feel dizzy and soon her head slammed into Tenzin before it hit the ground. Everyone ran over to her, but Sky reached her first. Sky touched her and blacked out, smashing to the ground himself. Everyone now grew more concerned now that both Ren and Sky were past out. Kai took Ren into one healing room and Bolin took Sky into another. Kya worked on Ren while Sesi worked on Sky. About an hour later Ren woke up and tried to get up.
"Whoa, Ren you can't get up yet," Kya said.
"Who's Ren? I'm Avatar Aang and I need to get to Katara now," Ren said.
Kya sighed knowing Ren thought she was her father again. "Ren, I'm Kya. Aang and Katara's daughter. You are Avatar Ren, Avatar Aang and Katara's great Granddaughter," Kya said.
"That's ridiculous Katara and I don't have any children. I want to see her now. I don't know who this Ren is, please let me see Katara now," Ren said.
Kya shook her head and Ren grew angry. Ren sent an air blast at Kya and sent her against the wall. Ren quickly got up and opened the door, which gave Kya an opportunity to yell for assistance. Bumi, Jinora, Kai, Pema, and Tenzin all came to see what had happened. They all found Ren running down the hall yelling Katara, which puzzled them. They stood in front of Ren and tried to prevent her from going anywhere , but they didn't expect her to be able to put up a fight. She sent quick air blast at all of them knocking them down in a matter of seconds. She put one leg on the wall and pushed off to jump over everyone and continued to run down the hall looking for Sky, thinking it was Katara. When she found him Bolin and Mako were trying to pull him back into the healing room as he yelled out Aang. Ren sent two of her strongest air blasts toward the brothers not knowing who they were. Sky ran over to Ren and smiled and Ren smirked.
"Aang, I was so worried," Sky said.
"Well, I'm here now. I couldn't let my forever girl worry now, could I," Ren said.
Ren hugged Sky and they kissed, before they both got headaches. Ren grabbed her head and tried to remember what happened as everyone who had been injured by the walked over to them. Sky fell back toward the wall as his head spun. Ren looked around still holding her head to notice everyone had injuries in some form or another. Sesi had scratches all over her face like when a waterbender sends icicles toward your face and it just barely hits the skin. Bolin was holding his arm and Mako was holding his nose. Everyone else seemed to have a few bumps and bruises. Ren raised an eyebrow and Mako pointed at her. Ren pinched the bridge of her nose and thought of all the possible things she could have done. She thought about how she didn't even drink sake and she can't remember what she did, nor will she ever drink sake. Ren took a deep breath and reached out for felt someone grab onto her arm and she saw her father. She started to laugh a little and he shook his head and laughed.
"What happened because I feel like crap?" she asked.
"Well, you passed out in the courtyard. You thought you were Grandpa Aang and Sky was Gran-Gran Katara. You attacked Aunt Kya so you could leave your healing room, then attacked everyone else, except Sesi. Sky attacked Sesi it looks like and probably thought you were Grandpa Aang," Kai said.
Ren slapped herself in the forehead, only making her headache worse. She walked over to Mako who was still holding his nose and pulled his hand away. She saw that is was already bruising and sighed. She placed her hands lightly on his nose and he winced before she quickly jerked his nose and heard a crack. She turned to Bolin who tried to run and she grabbed some metal and sent it toward him. She wrapped the cable she had made around his wrist and pulled. Bolin yelled and she winced knowing either his shoulder popped into place or she made it worse. She saw his face and knew she made it better. Ren fell to the ground and no longer saw the temple again.
Ren was back in the North Pole at the oasis. She saw Yue as a human still. She saw younger versions of her great grandparents and great great Uncle Sokka. She saw Zhao the moon slayer holding a bag, with Fire Nation soldiers around him. Ren noticed that the moon and sky were red, which meant something was wrong with the moon spirit. She then saw Iroh come in and start to yell at Zhao. Zhao opened the bag and placed the moon spirit back in the oasis and then he killed it. Ren gasped as she watched the fish die and Iroh attach the soldiers. She then saw her great Grandpa Aang fuse with the ocean spirit and destroy the Fire Nation army before he pulled Zaho into the oasis. Yue had already sacrificed herself and become the new moon spirit.
Ren turned and saw the older version of her great Grandpa Aang she was use to. "Save them Ren. Save them all," he said.
Ren sat up with sweat pouring down her face. She started to breathe heavy and looked around, realizing she was in the temple. She cursed under her breath at the fact she could go to the Spirit World and ask what these visions means. She noticed that she had a group I'm her room waiting for her to wake up.
"Who am I suppose to save? The spirits? The Northern Water Tribe? I need a little bit more to go off of here. Great Grandpa Aang I need you to help me a bit more," she said.
"Ren, what visions has my father shown you?" Tenzin asked.
Ren played with her fingers and looked around the room to see the Beifong sisters, Sky, her grandparents, her great Aunt Kya, great Uncle Bumi, and parents were in the room.
"I think Uncle Iroh should be here when I say this," Ren said.
Everyone looked at Ren with a worried look before Pema went to go get Iroh. When Iroh and Pema returned Ren put her face in her hands. She really had no clue what the flashbacks meant or if she could tell anyone. She heard everyone talking about how they wanted to know what Ren's flashbacks were. She felt the pain in her heart, because she didn't know what the visions meant and she didn't want to scare them. She felt a hand on her should and looked up to see Sky.
"Hey, c'mon you're scaring us," he said,
"I had a flashbacks about the Fire Nation trying to take over the North Pole during the Hundred Year War. I saw Zhao kill the moon spirit before great Grandpa Aang dragged him into the oasis," Ren said. She saw everyone look at her, some with concerned looks. A few with had fear, like they feared what the flashbacks meant. " I have no clue what they mean. It could mean a war, that someone is going to attack the Northern Water Tribe, someone is going to try and kill the moon spirit. All I have to go off of is the very few words he said to me. He told me It's coming and that I have to save them all. Once again. That could mean anything. My past lives are so good at talking in riddles along with giving very confusing flashbacks," Ren said.
"What happens if the moon spirit dies again?" Sky asked.
"I'm not sure. Yue was able to give it life because she was touched by the moon spirit. I am going to say this though, if the moon spirit is killed the world will be thrown out of balance. I will ask Desna to station guards near the oasis. The ocean and moon spirits need to be protected at all cost until I find out what my flashbacks mean," Ren said.
"You'll figure it out, you always do," Sky said.
"Well before I forget about it. Daddy, I know that Sky and I think we're dating, but it still needs daddy approval," Ren said.
Ren got up and walked over to Kai. She started to stick her lip out and bat her eyelashes. "Oh no, that's not going to work this time Ren. Ren, stop it. I'm serious Ren, It's not going to work. Curse your mother for making you so good at giving people the doggy deer eyes. Jinora, I don't know why you taught her how to do this, it's a weapon she can use against me," Kai said
"I never taught her how to do that. She most likely watched Ikki and I give the look to daddy and picked up on it and its power to make dads say yes to almost everything. Ren is better than Ikki and I it would appear considering she does melt your heart with that look every time. Ikki and I were lucky if we got away with the look twice a month," Jinora said as she laughed.
Kai looked at Ren who was still giving him the doggy deer eyes. He sighed and pinched the bridged of his nose. He thought about how Ren wasn't a little girl anymore. He thought about how he wasn't so young himself. Sky had proven time and time again that he was capable of protecting Ren. He looked at Ren who was no longer giving him the look, but still waiting for a response. He knew Ren would respect any decision he made, but at the same time he would be just like Tenzin was if want to give Sky a chance. Kai smiled at Ren and she smiled and hugged him.
"Thank you daddy, thank you so much. I promise he won't disappoint you," Ren said. She hugged Kai tightly and used her airbending to lift the two in the air. Ren didn't even notice that she crashed into the ceiling, leaving a pile of rubble on the ground. She looked around and noticed at they could see the roof of temple and Ren used her airbending to slowly lower them. When they arrived in the room Ren let go of Kai and he rubbed his back. Jinora and Pema laughed as Kya made sure Ren didn't break any bones. Ren winced and felt bad.
"I guess I'm not as young as I use to be. When I was Ren's age that wouldn't have hurt, but now that I'm in my late thirties I guess it will. Ren you have more upper body strength than I thought. I guess if I ever told you no you could beat me up," Kai said jokingly.
"Maybe I'll use that idea on the world leaders and the council. I mean they are getting a bit out of hand lately. Maybe I can whip them into shape, literally. Thanks for the idea daddy. I mean that is an amazing idea, I don't know why I didn't think of it before," Ren said.
Tenzin put his hands over his face and shook his head. Bumi and Kya laughed at the thought of Ren trying to whip the world leaders and council into shape for everything they have been doing. Ren was suppose to be peace in situations where she couldn't even speak at times.
(Author's Note: okay so yes Ren and Sky are dating and there is like more reasons than them just being a couple which will be revealed later on. Yes I used a line that Yue said I didn't know how else to explain how she became the moon spirit and what would happen if she died. You will find out why the press needs to be distracted and kept away from City Hall. You also find out what Ren's flashbacks mean. Yes Oogie is dying. Sky is now Assistant Chief of Police because Lin still refuses to retire. Also sorry for any mistakes I had to type this on my IPad because my computer isn't working right now. That's it for right now. Thanks for reading reviews are welcome.)
