„I'll be fine" - Chapter 2
Before you start reading: Today I spent several hours on fixing chapter 1 and I'll try my best to finish this one till tomorrow but for now it's probably full of mistakes and not very well written so please be patient with me
Thank you for reading this far
„I'll be fine.", I whisper. I feel so weak already, but I still don't let Katara out of my sight. I can't. I can't close my eyes while I know that she's still here. After all she does not deserve to witness my death. Katara is a good girl. She still cares about me. Sokka and Toph are already leaving. I here Toph saying: „He's lying.".
„I..." „We have to go now Katara.", Aang grabs her shoulder. „I..." „We have to save Appa!" „I can't!" „What do you mean by that?", asks Sokka, who just came back with Toph. „I just have to try every option to save him." Katara pulls out a neglace with a pendant. „Katara! Don't use this water on him! He's not worth it!" „Shut up Sokka! I know what I'm doing."
„What is so special about this water?", I hear Smellerbee asking. „It's magic water from the northpole. Paku told me that it had high healing powers." „Katara!", Sokka says with an anger in his voice. „You can't change my mind Sokka." „Maybe I'm really not worth it Katara. You should better keep it.", I whisper. „Shut up you Idiot.", she whispers back at me.
Sokka grabs her shoulder like Aang did before but with more roughness. She pushed his hand aside. I see how she pulls some water out of the pendant. „Katara...", I begin but I can't continue. I'm not sure why. Maybe I'm just selfish again and want to be saved, want to escape the death. Or I don't want to make her sad. But since I am who I am, I think I stopped because of my selfishness.
I feel a cold shiver, but suddenly the pain I was feeling lowers.
„Does it feel better?", Katara asks. „Yeah" „Katara! I told you not to use the water on him! What if we'll need it again?" „Shut up Sokka! It was MY decision and MY water, ok?!" „But..." „Shut up and help me carry Jet." „I won't do this." „I'll help you.",says Smellerbee.
They lift me up on their shoulders. Now I feel even more bad for who I am and for how many problems I cause the avatar and his friends. I see Aang shaking his head like he needs to let go of some thoughts.
„We better look for Appa again now. Katara, Smellerbee you two carry Jet out of here. Toph please help them to get up again because I don't think Jet will be able to climb up. And after that come back to us." „As long as you're not flying around I can find you Twinkletoes." „This is not the right time Toph." „I guess you're right. I'll hurry."
I still only cause all of them problems. Like I did the first time we met. I came to Ba-Sing-Se to change myself but I didn't changed after all.
And now girls are saving my life. Maybe i even became a worse human.
After some minutes we arrive at the thing you could call „exit". Toph uses her earthbending to lift up the earth under our feet and we go up. On the surface Toph says: „K, here's the moment I go back to help the others." „See you Toph and please be careful.", Katara says and helps Smellerbee to get me to the shore. Here the let me down.
„How do you feel?", asks Smellerbee. But I turn my face to Katara: „ Why did you save me?" „Jet! First: You really should know why I did this. And second: This is not the time to discuss this!" „It's not?", I answer and try to give her a charming smile. She seems to ignore me now because she just turns her back on me and towards lake Laogai. „I hope they're ok."
Approximately some minutes later a big cloud I here a loud noise. Katara yells: „No!". I try to lift up my head to I what upset her that much. But actually it seems like I'm still to weak to do it. Smellerbee whispers: „They're here but where's Appa." So I come to the conclusion that the others just arrived here. They start talking when Katara gets to them but I don't understand them because they all talk at once. Longshot comes to me and Smellerbee. When all of sudden Dai Lee Agents appaer everywhere. Smellerbee just escapes a scream. I can't really tell what the others are doing or saying because the Dai Lee agents are making much more noises with their bending. I can hear them fighting. I try to tell from the things I CAN see and hear what's going on when Longshot grabs me. Now I can see them. But Longshot drags me away. „What are you doing?", I try to shout at him but it comes out in a normal volume. „Dragging you away." „WHY?", I ask. But Longshot doesn't answer me. That's typical for him. I can see Smellerbee running to the others to join the fight when Longshot just drops me. I feel pain when my torso lands on the ground. Then my sight turns black and I loose my consciousness.
