Yay chapter two!

Disclaimer: I don't own avatar

"I'll do anything at all for that coat, please, anything you want," Aang said the first thing that he could think of as soon as he heard Katara's footsteps die out. Then, suddenly he thought of a great idea. "I'll give you a ride on my giant flying bison!" After all, how many people have ever gotten a chance to ride a giant bison? Aang thought with a grin, I'm sure this guy never did.

"Giant flying bison? Yeah right! You don't have a giant flying bison," said the man.

"Yes I do! I'll show you," said Aang, but then he realized that it woul probably be a bad idea to bring Appa into the festival.

"Nah, forget it. I don't have time for that," he decided and once again, Aang stood facing the man in the booth- the only thing between him and the coat he wanted to get for Katara- trying to think of anything at all he could do that was worth the same as the coat.

"I'll do your chores for you," said Aang, though he had already predicted what the man was going to say.

"When are you gonna give up, kid?" the man in the booth said. Aang sighed. This was beginning to feel hopeless, and he was starting to get annoyed with the man calling him 'kid'. The avatar had started to turn around in defeat when another wave of determination swept through his body. I'll just ask one more time, just once more, he thought.

"Sir, I just need this coat, more than you think, so if there's anything-" Aang stopped suddenly; he could see an idea had popped into the man's head, and he was right.

"Okay, kid, there is one way I'll give you this coat for free," Aang smile triumphantly. Katara would love me for this, I'm sure!

"Really? I'll do anything," said Aang.

"You, see my granddaughter, Darmi, has an almost-incurable illness. The healers have managed to keep her alive over the past month, but no one knows how much longer she can survive like that. They don't think they can keep her alive for much longer. "There is a way to cure her though. All she needs is a leaf from the bono-bono plant; it's the only way. The healers can use it to make her medication. The plant is very rare, though, and I've searched everywhere for one ever since the day she got sick. Well, that is, when I'm not here selling things. I can't travel anywhere now that her condition is so bad. I have to pay the healers and this booth is my only way of earning money, so I can't leave it very often, but I've never even found a trace of the plant" Aang stood still quietly as he listened to the man.

"I can get it for you," Aang quickly said without thinking.

"I doubt you, can, so I won't get my hopes up, but I can tell you this much. The bono-bono plant is found in warm temperatures, so it is mostly found in the south. That's all I know about it, " said the man.

"Oh," said Aang. I have to get this plant not only for the coat, but for Darmi, as well.

"I'll get it! After all I am the Avatar" said Aang boasted, though inside he wasn't as confident as he seemed.

"The Avatar? You? Kid, that's ridiculous, the avatar hasn't been seen for over 100 years!"

"My name's not kid, it's Aang!" he exclaimed then sighed. "I got frozen in an iceberg a hundred years ago, then a couple of people found me in it and they saved me," Aang was tired of telling everyone who didn't believe he was really the avatar this story.

"Well, nice to meet you, Mr. Avatar," said the man "You can call me Mr. Zahare,"

"Don't worry about that bono-bono plant, Mr. Zahare, I'm going to get it for you!"
