Chapter 2: SearchINGs

Ing has a short white beard and white hair. He is only forty years old and he looks old enough to look like an grandfather, but he isn't one. When he is on a mission, he wears a red cloak and some sort of crown, and shoulder pads. He was on his way to the docks when he noticed one of his men sleeping.

"Wake up!" he kicked him. The man immediately jolted up, and bowed at him.

"General Ing Li." he said. "I didn't expect to see you here today."

"That's because I wasn't supposed to be here. I had no choice."

"You were banished?"

Ing turned around and raised an eyebrow at him. "How did you know...?"

"I, Chin-Ming, know everything..."

"Right..." Ing rolled his eyes. "because you can see into the future. Just get the crew ready, we leave at sunset."

"At your request, my general..." Chin said. He bowed, and they walked in separate directions.

Chin-Ming is a strange man. He believes he foretell the future. Chin also wears shoulder pads. He is second in command for General Ing. He wears a lighter red jacket, while Ing wears a darker one. Ing found him abandoned on a small island, an island where Aang was frozen, not too far from Sokka and Katara's water tribe. Ing as hoping to find Korra there, but there was no sign. Once he found Chin marooned on the little island, he welcomed him aboard and had a cup of tea with him, as he listened to Chin's tale of woe. At first, he thought Chin was mad, but grew to respect him. Ing still treats him like he is worthless sometimes, however, but he does have a healthy respect for his second in command.

Finally, sunset came, and Chin-Ming came back with the crew. Someone came into inform Ing of the arrival. He went outside and saw them waiting for orders. There were three-hundred-fifty men outside. Ing had one big ship, and four medium sized ones. He told them what they needed to do and they split up. Chin came aboard onto Ing's ship and they all went off. As they were going out, Ing saw Unalaq staring off at the distance from his balcony. Chin walked up to Ing. He saw him staring off at the President.

"We will find her, my general." he tell Ing.

"What makes you say that?"

"I can feel it..."

Ing looked at Chin.

"You have been weird since the first day I met you, Chin."

"Is that why you have me on board?"

Ing put his hand on Chin's shoulder. "You entertain me..."

After that was said, he walked away. Chin just watched him walking away, with his hand folded behind his back.

"There's so much more for you to know about me, clueless general..."

He walked back inside to get some sleep. They had a long night ahead of them.

Somewhere in the far distance, hid the Airbender, Tenzin, and his family. They were living up in the far mountains. In caves, making sure they were not found.

"...and you're sure they won't find us here Bumi?" Tenzin asked his brother.

"Positive!" he smiled back. "I stayed hidden, in here, when I retired from the second division of the United Forces!"

"That wasn't your brightest idea..." Kya said under her breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing!" Kya replied quickly. Bumi just raised an eyebrow. Tenzin got up and looked around.

"This cave..." he said to himself. "... It feels somehow familiar."

"Why's that, little bro?"

"Our father camped out here with his friends and mom." Tenzin replied.

"You mean when Aang enrolled in that Fire Nation school?" Kya asked

"Yeah..." Tenzin laughed. "Mom and Uncle Sokka had to pretend to be Aang's parents."

"Yeah," Bumi laughed along. "Later that night, they invited many kids over and danced."

"That was a favorite story of mine."

"The headmaster of the school was furious when he found out!"

They all laughed together.

"I miss Dad..." Kya said.

"Don't we all, little sis?" Bumi mentioned. "Don't we all...?"

They all stared off into the sunset, with their arms over one another.

Tenzin is a bald man, just like his father, Avatar Aang is. He was formerly a part of the Republic City Council, while during Amon's tales. He has an arrow on his head and wears a red robe with a yellow collar. Bumi, his older brother, the first born of the three siblings, Tenzin being the last born, has black hair and a goatee like beard. Same goes for Tenzin. Tenzin is the only Airbending Master left in the world. He is married and has four children; Jinora, Ikki, Meelo, and their newborn son, Rohan. His wife's name is Pema. Bumi was formerly a United Forces Commander, retired now. He has no bending skills at all. Bumi is a very outgoing guy. He always tries to have fun when he can. He jokes a lot with his sister, and picks on his younger brother, Tenzin, Tenzin's and Bumi's sister, Kya, is the middle child, the second born of Avatar Aang and Katara. Kya is a water bender. Kya has white hair and wears a light blue robe. She too would tease Tenzin with her big brother. She was taught waterbending by her mother, Katara. She became an expert healer as well. She healed Mako, Bolin, and Korra after freeing Jinora from the Spirit world in the fog. All three of them come from the water tribe.

After staring out to the sunset, they all walked back inside to find the rest of the family had fallen asleep as well. Bumi yawned and stretched.

"Well," he said. "Goodnight brother! Goodnight sister!"

He laid down on the cold cave floor and immediately fell asleep.

"You sure you don't need help watching Jinora?" Kya asked Tenzin quietly.

"No," he replied. "You better get some sleep as well. I will keep the fire going and an eye on Jinora.

"All right." Kya hugged him goodnight. She laid next to Bumi and fell asleep. Tenzin sat next to Jinora and watched.

After the Spirit World, Jinora still has nightmares about it. Sometimes, she wakes up in the middle of the night, screaming and crying. Her mother and father would run into her room to calm her down. At first, they didn't know why it happened, but they didn't worry about it too much because it didn't happen very frequently. When it did become frequent, they took her to a psychiatrist and she tested her. The results came back and it told them that she dreams about the Spirit World sometimes. Once in awhile it's good, other times, it's bad. At about midnight, Jinora woke up crying. Tenzin comforted her.

"Shh..." he told her. "It's OK, Jinora. Daddy's here..."

"Daddy..." she said quietly, tears coming down her cheek. "I had the dream again."

"I know..." he told her. "Shhh..."

"It was about Korra."

Tenzin stopped running his hand through her hair. "What about her?"

"She's in trouble..."
