Chapter one Space Sword vs Double Sword's
Sokka woke late in the morning he rubbed his eyes his vision burly from sleep he looked around one side he saw Katara doing the water Toph setting by the new fire in a new fire pit that she had Earth bended on the other side in the distance he saw Aang and Zuko Fire bending Sokka stood and cracked his back his eyes remained on the Fire Bender he was older then Sokka by about a year Sokka didn't feel at all jealous of the Fire bending prince why should he just cause he was a little more muscular a little stronger a little taller as well as a little smarter no he was not jealous not at all nope.
Sokka picked up his Space sword and walked at little way off to practice his sword skills he heard a bang and saw smoke he looked over and saw Aang panting fire bending practice was over for the day he watched as he saw Zuko rub his head with a towel Sokka began to practice his sword "interesting color for a sword" said a voice Sokka turned he saw Zuko standing a little way off without his robe on Sokka could see Zuko's abs no he was not jealous "yeah it's a space sword" said Sokka as he removed his eyes for Zuko's pale body "a space sword" asked Zuko Sokka nodded as he swung the sword "yep it was made from the metal from meteorite hit it's unique" said Sokka as he swung it again Sokka then heard the sound of a sword being drawn he half turned and saw Zuko holding two swords "want to spar" he said with a grin Sokka smirked and turned to face his new sparing partner he raised his sword he gave a small bow Zuko returned the bow after a few seconds Sokka charged yelling.
Zuko waited until Sokka was with in striking distance when he struck sending Sokka flying back Sokka landed with a thump "oww" he grumbled he stood rubbing his bruised tail bone he then took up fighting stance and ran again this time Zuko let him come even closer their sword's clashed they circled each other their swords still touching Zuko got his other sword and easily disarmed the Water Tribe Warrior "oh man" moaned Sokka as he dodged as Zuko swung his two sword's over his head.
They had spared for well over a hour Zuko had disarmed Sokka five time already and Sokka had not gotten one over the fire bender Sokka was sweating his arms ached Sokka gasped for breath "where did you learn to sword fight" panted Sokka after Zuko had sent him flying again though not as hard as the first time "I was taught by a sword master back home" said Zuko Sokka blinked "you were" Zuko nodded "yes my Uncle taught me at an early age that a bender should not rely solely on his bending he should have a skill that does not use bending I found I was good with double swords, single swords as well as spears he found me a good Master to learn off of an old friend of his a non-bender it felt good to be good at something that Azula is not good at she relys on her bending only" said Zuko Sokka blinked "wow your Uncle knows a lot of stuff" he said Zuko smiled and nodded "yeah he does" he said.
"Hey you guys if your finished playing with your swords we need some food and wood for the fire" called Katara Sokka stood and glared at his younger sister "it is not playing it is sparing" he said Katara just laughed and walked back over to the steaming pot of water that she added a few herbs to, Zuko sighed "she relys on water too much as does Toph but then she has a good excuse she needs Earth bending to see Aang to" said Zuko Sokka sheaved his sword "well lets go and get some wood and food"said Sokka Zuko gave a nod and walked over to the camp site and put on his robe and placed his swords back their sheave he then walked back over to Sokka who was now walking towards the wood Zuko picked up two sacks one for fire wood another for food Momo flew onto Zuko shoulder and chirped happily away as Zuko entered the wood Sokka picked up a nut "here" he said as he threw it at Zuko who caught it he sighed once he opened his hand it was not a nut it was a nut shaped stone "how did they survive with him looking for food" wondered Zuko aloud Momo chirped and gave want Zuko thought was a shrug with that Zuko also gave a shrug and threw the offered stone over his shoulder he gave Momo a scratch behind his huge ears "we better find something or we will starve" said Zuko as he caught another "nut" from Sokka Zuko looked at it he sighed another stone this one also joined it's fellow back on the ground.
