Kona walked into her older brother Zuko's room and smiled. He was so calm and happy. "Sleep well, brother. May you never be harmed by this war." And she walked out of the palace into the night. Her brother smiled and slept peacefully, completely oblivious to the fact he would probably never see his littlest sister ever again.
Present. Kona's POV
I yawned quietly and stood outside the abandoned ship. I would have to go hunting today. Almost out of food. I pulled on my dark blue coat and started hunting. Luckily, it didn't take long for me to hunt down some seals. The South pole was full of them. Using my firebending and some special fire spices, I cooked the seal to make plenty of seal jerky. Figured it could last me a while. I then laid down in one of the chambers to get some shut eye. It was going to be a while before I could really do anything with my firebending.
When night came, I walked outside and started practicing my firebending. I smiled as I threw a particularly large fireball in the air. "Good thing the Fire Nation doesn't come up here anymore," I mutter. And it was true. After getting rid of all the water benders, the Fire Nation stopped seeing the Southern Water Tribe as a threat. I trained some more then went to bed. This is kinda how my life has been for the past couple months since I found this ship. It had been abandoned for the last eleven some years.
My quiet life came to a standstill when I woke up the next morning to the sounds of two people talking. I rose, suspicious. This ship was supposed to be abandoned. Climbing out of the bed, I proceeded to sneak quietly out into the hallway I managing to avoid all the traps the firenation set in the ship.
I walked over to where they were talking about the hundred year war. Narrowing my eyes, I walked out of my hiding place. "Who are you?" I demanded holding a fist engulfed in flames. "And how did you get here?"
The boy looked at me and smiled. "Hi, I'm Aang. Katara and I were just exploring. What's your name?"
"And what exactly are you doing here?" The girl I'm assuming was Katara asked suspiciously.
I stood up straight and glared evenly at Katara. "My name is Kona. I've been living here for a few months now." I stepped over a trip wire. "I travel a lot."
"So you're like a nomad?" Aang asked excitedly. "That is so cool!"
I smiled. "Yeah, I guess I am a nomad. I come and go as I please. I should be leaving here soon as a matter of fact."
Katara smiled. "Well, maybe you can join us. I'm sure we can spare a little bit of food."
"That sounds good, thank you," I said as we started to walk outside. We continued walking. Aang said something about wanting to explore the Fire Navy ship some more. Katara wasn't so sure. "I'd listen to Katara if I were you Aang. There are a lot of Booby traps on this ship."
"Well you've been living here for months," Aang countered. "If the traps were working, shouldn't they have gone off by now?"
"I've studied battle ships," I say after a moment of silence. "It keeps me occupied." I step over a trip wire. "It's not that hard to notice where traps are when you pa attention."
"That's pretty neat," Aang said grinning as he stepped on a wire. I groaned. Great, just great.
"We should go," I said as the ship started to react. We all ran out of the ship and out into the snow before anything seriously bad could happen. We stood outside the ship as a burst of light went through the sky. "Well," I commented as I stared at the sky. "That was fun. Good thing the Fire Nation doesn't really mess with the Southern Water Tribe anymore or we could be in some serious trouble."
Katara smiled. "We better get back. Sokka is going to get worried." We headed toward where I assumed her village was.
I looked over to the water and frowned. Fairly far in the distance, there was a war ship. I shook my head. This is not going to end well.
And this is the first chapter for my renewed Avatar story. I know it's not very long, but I couldn't think of how else to end it. But rest assured, the chapters will be longer. And I plan on making a new chapter daily. May not be for this story, but rest assured, updates will be more frequent than they were in the past.
Disclaimer, I own nothing besides Kona. This is probably for the best
Anyway, Love it, hate it, just don't forget to review it.
