(I'm going to skip the part to where Kiara pretended to be the painted lady and go to Sokka's Master)
"It's beatiful." I smiled as Aang did the classic yawn move and put his arm around me. I smiled to the side and blushed as I saw Katara smirk, who was on my right side.
"Not as beatiful as you." I heard Aang mutter casuing me to blush even more. I giggled and looked back up at the stars.
"Eeeh, you see nothing once you see it a thousand times." Toph said scooting Katara over with earth bending and sitting by me. We then saw a blue light coming straight towards us, well right over us. We all 'Ooh'ed in awe as I got on Kalla. "Let's go check it out!" I smiled. "Len Len!" I told her and she started running like the speed of light.
"It's going to destroy that town!" Katara yelled looking down on the fire ball that landed and was burning dry grass.
"Not if we can stop it!" I yelled back and stopped the water with huge waves and startedmaking the fire cease; I wans't paying attention to anything else.
"Kiara! Give me the water!" he yelled.
"Okay!" I yelled back and gave him the water.
"Sokka, stand clear!" Aang warned.
"Okay." he sulked, but astill got hit with the...snow!
"Snow!" I yelled and ran towards it; getting off of Kalla and making a snow angel. I was having a giggle fit tilI was done. "Oh, that feels better." I smiled as I got up; snow all over my back and in my hair. I just shoke it off.
"I forget you haven't seen snow in five years." Katara told me.
"These people don't know how close they were to being toasted." Aang said as he held my tray above my head
"Aang!" I whined. "Food! will die with out!"
"Okay," he sighed giving me the tray. "Here you go."
"Thank you." I then sat down by him and ate my hot salad biscuts.
"Yeah, the worst thing is is that they didn't even know it was us! i miss the hero worship and the love. " Toph whined taking a bite out of her biscout.
"Boo Who..." Sokka told us from the steps. "Poor heros."
"What's that suppose to mean?" Katara asked.
"You haven't even touched your smoke sea slug." I pointed out.
"It's just, you all can bend stuff, like make things, and fly, and make things fly around." Sokka went on. "I...I can't fly around, I can't... do anything."
"That's okay." I said as I went up to Sokka and gave him a hug. "Your pretty good with a sword." I told him. "You don't need to be a hero and be a bender, ever heard of Lee Calvin? He couldn't bend at all and he defeated the big Koi Fish that was about to eat the town?" I asked. "That's you." I gave him a hug around the waist and he soon returned it.
"Hey Katara?" I asked. "How much money do we have?" I asked.
"About, two gold and three silver, twenty-two copper. Why?" she asked.
"I know how we can make Sokka feel better."
"Shopping!" Sokka clapped and ran around the weapons store.
I was eyeing these new gloves and put them on as I heard, "Whatcha think?" I looked to the voice and saw a guy in armor and a headband. "Pretty slik huh?" Aang asked me as I walked towards him. "All I need is a wnd sword."
"A wind what?" I asked.
"A wind sword. It's were I have a handle of a sword and use air as the blade." he told then made sword swish ing sounds. "Woosh, woosh, woosh."
"Aang, I think your about to-"
"Aah!" he yelled falling over as I took of his helmet.
"Fall." I giggled and helped him take off the armor.
"I think i'll stick to what I got." he smiled as we got the boots off.
"You have a good eye." the shoopkeeper told Sokka, who was eyeing a sword. "That's made by P.E Jou. Best sword fighter and trainer, lives in the castle up the road from here." he told us as I walked in closer towards the, Aang trailing behind.
"That's it!" Aang told Sokka. "That's what you need!"
"A sword?" Sokka asked.
"No... A master."
"Yeah, we all needed masters. I wouldn't be able to be where I am with out Master Paku." Katara said.
"I learned from Badger Moles, they may not be able to see, but their still good teachers. What about you, Kiara?" Toph asked me.
"You can learn things from other cultures. You know Zuko's Uncle? Iroh? He helped me, so I geuss he's my master, that was until he left to go with Zuko." I said as they looked at me wierdly. "What?! Iroh's a good guy even though he's from the fire nation!" I told them as they all went back to their business and Sokka looked at the sword.
"I think I want to be a sword fighter. Alright, let's go up to his castle!" Sokka said ethusiastically. "He'll be my master."
"What should we do today?" I asked.
"I'm already tapped out. I already picked my toes, twice." Toph replied.
"Twice?" Aang, Katara and I asked in a bored, mono tone voice.
"Once for cleaning the other for the sweet cleaning sensation."
"Sokka's been in charge of the schedule, I'm not sure what to do." Katara told us, since we all turned to look at her.
"Plus, it's really hot today." Toph complained.
"How hot is it?" Katara asked as I groaned lightly turning to my side and standing up.
"What's that?" I asked.
"What's what?" she asked me.
"That, white thing! I'm gonna check it out!" I grinned as I stood up and went after the thing. It seemed like I didn't have to run as it jumped into my arms. "Oh my gosh! It's a flying artic fox!" I exclaimed to them.
"What?" Aang asked standing up.
"See, it has it's tail which she spins it around and makes her fly, it's rare to see one in the south pole or I've heard." It old him brining the flying artic fox out.
"Wow, she's pretty, what are you going to name her? Or even keep her for that matter?" Katara asked me.
"Aspra, pretty name, always wanted to name one of my daughters that, if I live long enough for that." I giggled. Aspra then ran towards Kalla and smelt her leg before licking it. And Kalla licked back?
"So we're on this island." Katara told us as I sat down and closed my eyes.
"No, we're on this island." Aang argued lightly.
"You noodle brains don't know what your doing... I miss Sokka." Toph commented.
"I do know what to do." I sighed sitting down and grabbing the map.
"Ooh, I got one, if you miss him so much why don't you marry him?" Katara told us.
"We're on this island right here, the creek is right here." I told them giving back the map and lieing down. "and Katara, Aang's right, it doesn't run through the family, or at least you."
We all soon fell asleep.
"Sokka's back!" Toph exclaimed making me open my eyes, to realize I was sleeping on Aang. "And you love birds better not of done anything!" Toph told us in a playfuly manner as I blushed along with Aang, but I stood up and ran to Sokka.
"Sokka! We missed you!" I exclaimed.
"I missed you too." He replied.
"Okay, say something funny!" Katara encourged.
"Funny how?" he asked as we busted out laughing, just to hear his voice.
I heard him talking to Toph but, I couldn't hear over our laughter.
"Okay, I need your help." Sokka told us as he led the way to the space rock.
I slid to the bottom with Toph. "Pupil, you try."
"Okay." I sighed and made it fly up into the sky and land on the grass perfectly.
"Great job my pupil." Toph bowed, and I bowed in thanks.
Katara, Sokka and Aang steadied the rock as me and Toph try to make it go up ad down the hills with earth bending but as alaways, we made our destination and this time with no trouble... A first.
Sokka soon pounded on the door and a guy with a mustached and little beard came out. "Master." Sokka bowed.
"Sokka, who are these people?" his master asked, who I'm geussing is Jou.
"These are my friends and family, and I was wondering if we can make a sword out of metor?"
"We'll make a sword like no other." he told us directly as we went to go sit down.
~Next Day~
"Sokka, when you first arrived, you were so un-sure. I had doubts, but I saw something right away, I saw a heart as strong as a lion turtle, I saw one heart twice as big. But, it wasn't your skills that impressed me." Jou said as he grabbed the sword from his helpers hand and place it in Sokka's. I sat in bettween Toph and Aang as I watched this scene. "No, it certainly wasn't your skills. It was your intesity, creativty, itellegince, this is what makes a great swords man." he said after taking it out. I sort of dozed off till Aspra was on my shoulder and I stood p looking at SOkka who looked like he was in trouble.
"No, this is my fight, alone." he told us fighting the swords master, not before they took it out side. We all watched from the balcony, I really REALLY didn't want Sokka to lose this.
I watched as Sokka fiyught the sword master, but once he didn't have his sword in hand and was at pin-point on the ground, we all jumped off and started running till Jou moved his sword. "Great job." he complimented and when I saw the case fly onto his sword from the helper he has. "I think I'm to old to fight the Avatar and Legend." I looked at aang and it looked like we had the same thought as we looked at each other.
"How did you know?" Katara asked.
"I have known since you told me your name, Sokka isn't very fire nation. Try Lee next time, there's a thousand Lee's." ha said taking as sip of his water that his servant gave him.
"Thank you for teaching me, Sokka." he bowed and we started leaving as soon as Sokka got his sword back.
"Wiat!" we heard from behind us. "Master wanted you to have this." the servant told Sokka, handing him a bag and bowed as we bowed back, in thanks.
"I wonder what's in it!" I exclaimed jumping up and down.
"A Lotus tile." Sokka told me as we started walking again.
"Aww man!"
Kalla, Aspra, Mo Mo, and Appa was laying in the cave sleeping as we decided to throw away the schedule and do what ever now. We decided tonight we would tell ghost stories. I knew what I was telling though.
"Let me try." I told them; making all of them suprised becasue I've been so quiet. "And this is a true Southern Water Tribe Story." I admitted.
"Is this a one where 'One of my Friends, Cousin Knew Some Guy' story?" Sokka asked me.
"No... that would be Katara. Though this happened to Mom, well, that's what Gram Gram told me." I told them as he sat back and listened. "One winter there was a terrible blizzard. The whole village froze. A month later Mom realize that she didn't see her friend Mi Mi. Mom and some others went to go check on her family. When they got there, no one was home. When they left Mom saw smoke rising from the chimney and went inside to go look if anyone was in there. When she got in there. She saw Mi Mi. She was blue and shivering and told Mom; 'It's so cold in here, and I can't get warm' she whispered. And when Mom ran out to get help. She was gone." I whispered.
"Where did she go?" Sokka and Katara asked together; hugging each other too.
"No one knows. And Mi Mi's house stays empty to this day, and somtimes people see smoke coming out of the chimney; like Mom did, as she tries to get warm... Now! I scared my older brother and sister! Boo Yah!" I cheered.
All of a sudden I felt like someone was yelling. Just on cue Toph commented "Guys! Did you hear that?"
"I felt it. It feels... like someone is... scremaing. Under the mountain." I whispered amazed.
I looked at Sokka, Katara, and, well Aang was holding onto my leg whispering.
"Nothing's going to happen to you or me. Nothing's gonna happen to you or me."
"Aang..." I trailed off. "What are you doing?" I asked.
"What?! Nothing, nothing! I'm just... still a little creeped out of the Mi Mi story and want nothing to happen to you!" he whispered.
"Alrighty then."
"Nice try." Sokka commented to Toph and I.
"No, we're serious." We told him.
"I'm pretty sure we're hearing the same thing." I told them.
"Your... probably jumping to conclusions. Get sleep, it'll help." Katara told us as Aang jumped up nodding his head in agreement.
"Hello children." I heard a voice sneer.
"Aaahhh!" We all yelled as Aamg jumped into my arms.
"Sorry to freighten you. My name is Hama." 'Hama' told us. " You children shouldn't be out at night, evil stuff could be lerking around. I have an Inn near by. Why don't you sleep there tonight." she offered to us.
"I-I would like a nice warm toasty bed..." Sokka trailed off.
"Thank you for letting us stay here." Katara told her yet again.
"It's no problem. But, you should becareful. People have been disapeering in those woods on full moons..." Hama trailed off taking a sip of her spiced tea.
"What do you mean disapeering on full moons?" Sokka asked.
"People go in and don't come out." Hama told us. "Who wants more tea?" she asked holding up the pot filled with tea.
"Cue the creepy music." I muttered getting a sly chuckle and smile from Toph and just a chuckle from Aang.
"Don't worry your all completly safe here." Hama reassured us. "Why don't I show you to your rooms." she told us as I took Aang's hand who was right by me.
"I'll be with Aang!" I said; I'm kinda creeped out by this woman and I don't want to be alone.
"Alright dears. This way." Hama commanded as I stood close to Aang for two reasons. One. I really really really love him. Two. I'm scared.
"This can be the two of yours room." Hama told us as I pulled Aang in and Hama shut the door as I fell onto the bed taking Aang with me.
"Sorry." I was muffled from the matress in my face.
"Why did you want to sleep with me?" I heard Aang ask getting off of the bed. I grabbed my bag and took and opened it to the other side of the room.
"One. Because that woman scares me. Two, you make me feel safe." I told him turning around in my pajama's.
Aang was just wearing his under clothes which was just underwear, boxers call it what you will! I was wearing my white under clothes that I had on and lied down next to Aang.
I was dreaming of dreams I had before
First dream. "Who are you?" Arrow boy asked. Though, after every dream I never remembered his name. And he couldn't remember mine ethier. ~~~End of Dream~~~
"You first." I commanded him.
"I asked first."
"Kiara." I answered.
"Aang." He answered.
"So... nice... umm, snow?" I asked looking aorund.
"Yeah, would you like to go peniguien sleding with me?" he asked grabbing my hand.
"Like to? I would love to!" I yelled draging him with me to the pengiuens about twnty feet away.
"Let's go!" I yelled in happiness sledding on the pengiues with Aang.
"Wake up!" Aang told me shaking me.
"Five more minutes." I groaned.
"See! She won't wake up!" I heard him yell to what sound like was feet shuffling.
"Well, then! Try somehting else!" Katara's voice told him.
"I know the perfect solution then."
I was turned over and something was on my... lips? I could feel the person didn't mean to do this though. I could feel the shove in the beginning of the kiss. But then it turned into a sweet meainging-ful kiss. And I kissed back.
"Finally!" I heard Toph shout.
I looked over to see her hands in the air and laughing. I then looked to see the person who kissed me... Aang?
"Umm... sorry!" I told him getting off of the bed and running with my bag to Toph's room and pulling her with me s she had that huge smile on her face still.
"Your so going to get together!" she squeled in delight.
"Toph, I bet it was a mere accident." I told her.
"It was, but you kissed back and Aang didn't get out of the kiss!"
"Maybe he was caught up in the momment?" I stated more like asked though.
"No he wasn't. Everyone could tell you had a thing for him. That was why Mo Mo and Aspra jumped on his back to make him kiss you!"
"Well, let's just go!" I groaned and hid behind Toph pushing her out first.
"Where's Kiara?" I heard an all to famriliar voice ask.
"She's in there getting changed." Toph told him as I copied her movements.
"No... she's behind you."
"Kiara!" I heard Katara yell at me. "Let's go!" she smiled grabbing my hand and taking me away from everyone.
"I owe you." I breathed to Katara as I just noticed I was holding my breath.
"I know you do... but what's with you and Aang? I thought you two would be so happy!" she giggled as I took out my book.
"Read chapter four. Section B, paragraph two." I told her handing her the book out of my bag.
" It means you were meant to be!" Katara smiled.
"Yes, but it said that the Legend and Avatar didn't fall in love the second time." I told her.
" But that was becasue they were both woman(I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST THIS)." Katara told me as Hama then came out of no where.
"Hello children. Let us be swift." she said taking Katara and my hand and pulling us out the door and Aang walked up to me; but before I could run he caught my hand and turned me around.
"I'm sorry Kiara. Forget about the kiss, I'm sorry." he told me pulling into a hug and whispered soothing things in my hair and I could feel wet salty hot tears run down my neck.
"It's alright. I was... just taken back." I commented and pulled out of the hug and grabbed his hand. "Let's go shopping. I have to go see if I dropped my necklace outside too." I commented.
"Why?" he asked.
"My mothers necklace. It wasn't in my bag and I need to find it. " I told him.
~~~~~~~~~
"Well, it looks like Mr. Jwon has a thing for you," I said to Hama; she's nto as bad as I thought. "Maybe we can go back and some free komodo conqwatts." I smiled.
"You's make me use my feminme charm to get free food?" Hama asked me. "I think we'll get along swmmingly." she smiled as we walked back to the house.
I walked into the house; everyone else was already here; I had to get some things with Hama. "Hello?" I called up.
"Maybe there upstairs?" Hama smiled lightly.
"Maybe." I sighed walking up the stairs. Now I have to find the rest of them; now my day has gotten slightly worse. because if they left; oh all the spirits will get loose!
"I'll tell you what's in the box." Hama said going in front of me and opening the box. To reveal a whale seal tooth comb & my mother's necklace.
"My necklace." I smiled grabbing it and putting it in my bag.
"It fell out of your bag in your room. I picked it up for you so I can give it to you. You didn't know I was a Southern Water Bender did you?" Hama asked me as I my eyes widened.
"I've never met a Southern water bender before!" Katara gasped. I cleared my throat. "Of course except Kaira." I smiled in satisfation.
"Maybe I can teach you two something." Hama smiled.
I rather not talk about the rest of it but I'll tell you something. I am never doing blood bending again.
