Edin continued to question himself, as he lay motionless in his bed. "What was that dream all about?" he says as he stares at the ceiling of his room. He finally decides to get up from his bed and make his way to his mirror, which stoop upon his deck off in the corner of his room.

Edin didn't have a huge room it was of moderate size, but it didn't seem to bother him much. He was just happy that he didn't have to share it with any of his 2 siblings. Edin took a tired look at himself in the mirror. His once tan skin looked very flushed, and his face clearly showed the amount of stress he was under. He had bags under his hazel eyes and they were severely bloodshot. His once laid back hair was now messy and spiky. He seemed to wear his emotions on his sleeve. It was very evident that he had gotten little sleep. For a 16-year-old boy he looked older than he actually was. Not only was this evident upon his facial features but also his body. He had a muscular build at a moderate height. He was fairly tall for his age, but amongst his peers he was merely of average height. He was a very handsome boy although at this moment in time it wasn't as evident. He continued to look himself in the mirror contemplating what the day had in store for him.

"Well school starts in a few days so I'm guessing Iko and I have to go shopping for supplies, and go pick up our uniforms." He thought to himself while still looking at himself in the mirror. "Maybe I can tell Iko about the dream, he'll probably know what it meant." A small smirk crossed Edin's face in hope that his older brother might have the answer to his problem

He stepped away from the mirror after that long silence and began getting prepared for breakfast. He could already smell his mother's cooking from his room and his stomach was already growling. He opened his drawer and pulled out his usual fire nation get up. It consisted of his red trousers that were tucked into his black boots. A red undershirt covered by a black vest that reached down past his waist. He also had a golden belt that wrapped along his waist connecting his vest to his trousers. It was a very fitting outfit and brought out the best of his physical traits.

"Huh" he sighed as he thought about his dream for the last time before exiting his room.

He made his way to the dining area of his house, which took him past his older brother, and sister's rooms. He turned right into the hallway leading towards the living room area. Before he could fully pass from his living room to the dining room his brother entered.

"Hey there Edin, what's up?" his brother said in a sweat still catching his breath from his morning run. He was panting hard with his hands on his knees and his face looking at the floor. His brother was topless with just his athletic red pants on and boots. His body was drenched in sweat and helped clearly define his well-toned body. Iko was considerably bigger than Edin in stature. He was taller but just barely, but had a much more toned body.

"Nothing much, just woke up for breakfast. Where were you?" Edin said knowing fully well that his brother woke up early everyday to run.

"I went on my run." His brother said with a gasp of air. "You should know this by now, I've been doing this all summer." His brother looked up at him with a quizzical look.

"Are you okay man?" he said with a concerned answer finally standing straight up and walking towards his younger brother looking him at him with his green eyes.

"Yea, I just had a weird dream." Edin said this as he rubbed his head.

"What was it about?" Iko said with a concerned voice putting his hand on his brother shoulder

Edin took a long look at his brother, sighed "It was dark and I found myself in Republic City on Avatar Aang's statue, and…" He trailed off

Iko just simply looked at his younger brother who was currently struggling to organize his thoughts "It's okay just go eat breakfast and when we head out to get our supplies and uniform we'll talk…okay?" his brother's words were kind and understanding. It gave Edin assurance that he wouldn't be dealing with this alone. With that notion both boys began to head opposite directions, Iko to his room to shower and change and Edin to the dining room.

"Hey Edin nice of you to join us, we thought you'd never wake up" his father said sarcastically while taking a sip of leechy juice. "Oh leave the kid alone Liwe, he just had a rough night." His mom replied In Edin's defense as she laid his breakfast down for him.

"Oh I'm just teasing the boy, he knows I'm joking." his father said as he lightheartedly laughed at the situation. His father was on the police force and was well renowned for his work. He was a great earth bender and was awarded several awards for his service. He was a tall man with a darker complexion than that of his 2 sons, but still resembled them. He was a middle-aged man with a black beard and dark black hair. His eyes were also green and his face showed signs of stress and aging. However he was still a handsome man. He had a serious demeanor, but around his family that all vanished he seemed more at ease when he was home and seemed to drop all his burdens.

"Goodmorning mom and dad." Edin replied while forcing a smile at both of his parents.

"Good morning Edin!" his little sister said after quietly appearing in the corner. She had a great smile on her face and seemed happy to see Edin.

"Good morning Kira!" he said at the littler girl trying to mimic her joy.

"Are you and Iko going supply shopping today?" she said with a smile on her face

"Ahh yea I think so" Edin said while putting a spoon of food in his mouth.

"Can you buy me something from the marketplace? She said in a pleading voice

"Uhm we'll see, I'll try to if I have some extra money left over." Edin forced another smile at the young girl who seemed to be enjoying his presence. She was about 7 years old and had grey eyes with nice white skin. Her face shone bright in the light from the living room and she returned her attention to her meal.

…

Breakfast went by quick with the casual talking and not too long after Edin and Iko gathered their stuff and headed out into Omashu to go buy their supplies. The city was bustling at this time; many teenagers about their age were also out buying their goods. As they traveled from market to market gathering all their goods Edin began to see visions of people in the crowd. There seemed to be a middle-aged woman with her eyes glowing walking toward him. She was in water tribe clothing and was coming straight towards him.

Edin froze in his tracks, he didn't know whether to yell or just stand there. He tried closing and opening his eyes to see if the person would disappear but it didn't work. He finally decided to take a deep breath and calm down. He looked over at his brother Iko who was busy getting their uniforms and then surveyed his surroundings. Edin then looked up again and the woman was gone. He walked over to his brother who noticed how distraught Edin was.

"Alright, I think its time to talk about that dream of yours." Iko could see the fear all over Edin's face and he was concerned for his brother's health.

As they left the school with their uniforms and headed back Edin told Iko all about his dream and asked Iko what It possibly meant. His brother thought about it for a minute.

"To be honest, I don't know." Iko said with a saddened look

"Thanks anyway, I hope I can find out soon enough." Edin said while turning around and noticing the female figure with the glowing eyes had returned.

They stopped at the market to pick up something for Kira.

"So what do you want to get for little sis?" Iko said scanning the goods.

"I don't know" at that moment Edin saw a necklace that caught his eye.

"That's It!" he exclaimed.

It was a White necklace with red; green, yellow and blue pendants signifying all the nations. It had every emblem and even the engraving of each nations element. The air nation emblem was slightly bigger than the other emblems. It was perfect. He quickly asked the vendor about the price. They were glad it was within their price range. They quickly picked it up and ran back home to present it to the young girl.

"Thank you so much! You 2 are the best brothers I could ask for!" The girl squealed and gave the boys a hug. The 2 boys were delighted they could give their little sister something memorable. As the 2 boys exited the living room Iko asked Edin if he wanted to go the U.A. Edin reluctantly agreed, they greeted their parents and headed out for a second time as the sun began its downward path towards sunset.

Hope you liked the chapter even though it was kind of boring. I promise the next chapter will be a lot better. The action picks up and so does the plot. I'm just trying to get a setting going I guess. It's in Omashu by the way if you didn't catch that and don't worry I'll tell you the time so that you can get a feel for how long Korra's been gone. It's been a slow burn but it gets good. Please fav/follow/review anything helps. I'm still learning.
