A/N
So, second chapter out :D Pretty short, but whatever
I know that there are still questions open, but some will be answered as the story proceeds. Don't be afraid to ask, though :)
Dear Guest Reviewer, thanks for your review :)
The camp doesn't have bison; if they had the kids would know what they look like ;) When the Fire Nation attacked they just packed a few things, took their gliders and left. There are currently 27-29 people in the camp but not all of them are direct descendants of the Air Nomads and have an Earth Kingdom (though not earthbender) bloodline. I don't know exactly how many airbenders actually got away; I think they could've been around 20-30 without the Nonbenders. Due to lack of surviving skills many of them probably didn't make it through the first winter and so there aren't that many left anymore. The only one whose parents were born in an Air Temple is Kavi, the eldest, and the few elder people have met some original Air Nomads as children, but none of them has actually been there or lived their lifestyle. Kavi's parents told him about how it was before the war and he even has tattoos so his "family" sees him as some kind of wise storyteller… thing… whatever :P
Annoying Child
5 years before the end
Shin Soo was so dreamy! Cimba had watched him all day, his tall, strong body, his long, brown hair… he had just turned fifteen and was already allowed to go on a hunting mission since he was such a natural talent. Cimba, twelve years old, but almost thirteen, had tried to talk to him thousands of times, but every time something went wrong. Was it his older brother Jung asking him to go fishing, his parents Asha and Tashi reminding him of some chores or even Cimba's own grandfather Kavi wanting to speak to him – someone always held her up. Most of the time though, it was Ryung. He just didn't leave her alone! In the camp, it was nearly impossible to hide from someone, and if she went to the forest he always volunteered to accompany her. Once when they had been at the meadow together – she had followed Shin Soo there but she couldn't leave the camp alone – Ryung had picked a lot of pretty flowers and made her a necklace. But it had been all crooked and falling apart, that boy was just not able to do anything right. Cimba tried to be nice to him, she really did, but he was really annoying her. She rather watched Shin Soo practicing his airbending then tried to act interested during a demonstration of not existing carving skills from the one year younger nonbender. She had tried to give him hints that she wasn't into younger guys but either he didn't get them or he didn't care, either way he followed her wherever she went. Why couldn't that immature boy hang with the other children, Mune for example was eight, that was okay, wasn't it? An eight year old and an eleven year old were both too young to even think of a relationship but they could be friends and play games while the older ones, like her, had time to mind their own business.
Shin Soo would never pay attention to her if the situation stayed like it was! How could he, when that child was around her all the time? She felt like a babysitter! No, it was worse – the other children she occasionally looked after at least didn't have weird childhood crushes on her.
How would she ever get a boyfriend if that clumsy child kept getting in the way?
Yayyy, first chapter with my favorite character, Ryung! :D So, kind of a cliché story about a clumsy guy who falls in love with a one-year-older superficial girl who likes a talented older guy. More chapters to come ;) I really dislike Cimba and Shin Soo though. Ryung deserves better! ((Why am I writing it then lol))
Oh, and in case anyone wonders, Kavi is Cimba's real grandfather :) Everyone else just calls him that.
Anyways, thx for reading and please review :)
