**Please recognize that I have not seen this episode very much nor seen most of the seasons but I know much of the three Avatar books. So please don't criticize. I don't own the Avatar but I do own my O.C. Jino**
I shivered as I walked slowly and not making to much movement I walked through the barren landscape that I was pretty sure was the artic... or one of them. I wasn't sure which. I coughed then shivered. I then thought about it for a moment. I shouldn't be staying still and moving slowly in the could should I? Oh well I'm gonna anyway.
My name is Jino Collins. Yeah a pretty weird name huh? Well not here in this world. It's more normal than a normal name to you guys.. So.. yeah.. I'm not a typical bender either. I'm a blood bender. No not one of those that try and control and kill people like some did. No I'm from a different tribe.
Instead of using it for hurting people we use it for healing and only that. Pretty strict rules but.. Hey, what else could you really do with it? I didn't really mind much of any of the bender types. But I didn't really like Fire Benders to much..
Especially not the Fire lord... ehh I hated him so much. He killed my parents when I was about 5 years old I was wandering around by myself until I was taken by the leader of the blood bender tribe. So yea.. enough about me..
I blinked then I groaned a bit falling to my knees. I blinked and sniffled sneezing. I swore I was getting a cold at the moment from getting to cold. I looked around looking at all of the small caves. Most of them were WAY to small for my to be in for the night.
Nightfall was coming quickly and I really didn't want get stuck in this tonight. I closed my eyes then opened them again my eyes falling on a big cave that was just the right size. I walked closer then stopped a bit seeing a small fire on the inside of it. I shrugged and ran over. It went out when I thought the person or people inside must have heard me.
I stopped then began to walk slowly being very careful not to make to much of a sound. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath by the edge of the cave. I took another step then I was slammed onto the ground by someone tackling me.
I grunted then tried to move out from under the person. "GET OFF OF ME!" I yelled at him in the loudest voice I could muster from him choking me. He then stopped and got up quickly and I stood up.
"I'm so sorry" he said then sighed "I thought you were someone else..." he said frowning. I nodded then I looked into his eyes. This golden eyes almost like a light thought the darkness. I rubbed my eyes then I gasped as he dragged my into the cave.
"Come here" he growled and I tried to pull my hand away.
"Let go of me!" I said. He then pushed me to the ground of the cave next to another boy who was tied up on floor. He has arrows on his head and hands. He HAD to be an Air Bender.. but there was only one left.. t..The Avatar... My eyes widened then I gasped as the boy got on top of me once again.
I struggled not noticing the liquid soaked cloth on top of my mouth and nose until it was to late. I groaned then I blacked out.
**A while later...**
I groaned and I tried to move lightly. I then noticed my hands and feet were tied behind me. I looked over seeing the man.. no.. he's not a man. I noticed that now. He was a teen. He looked around my age 17-18.. I blinked. He had many bruises and cuts on his face.
I then blinked straining my eyes a bit. He also had a large burn on the left side of his face over his eye. I went to sit up but he shot up. He ran over and he stood on my back pushing me back down onto the ground.
I growled and tried to get up again but he pushed down harder. I stopped moving trying to be still to see it he would move his foot. I closed my eyes then he moved it and I reopened them.
I looked up at him not moving any part of my body and showing no emotion at all.
"Who are you?" he demanded my to say. I glared at him then turned my head. He growled and sat down next to me forcing my head up to look him in the eyes. My Crystal blue eyes fighting once again with his golden ones.
"TELL ME! AND YOUR ELEMENT" He yelled his temper rising. I could tell he had the fire bender temper... plus his body was heated like one.
"Jino.." I whispered then tired to move my chin away. "And I'm a blood bender" I muttered growling a bit. I then moved away quickly just remembering the main rules of being in my tribe.. Don't tell others about the tribe. I closed his eyes.
When I reopened them I could see confusion on his face. "I thought all blood benders' were imprisoned?" he asked me. I shook my head.
'Not us.. most people think se aren't benders at all. We don't use our blood bending to fight people. Only with healing and that's it" I responded and he nodded thinking still.
Silence fell over us. After a moment I spoke up
"W..who are you?" I asked him. He looked
"I'm Zuko.. I'm the.." I cut him off "Y..your the B..banished Prince!" I said smiling wider. He frowned a bit then he nodded slowly. I took a knife out of my pocket and cut the roped and then put it down. I then hugged him tightly
"That is SO cool!" I said smiling. He gasped at first but then he hugged back
"Yeah I guess it is.." he said. I then blushed darkly and went to pull away but he held me close. I blushed harder.
Then I gasped and moved closer to him as there was a very bright blue light as it seeped into the cave.
