Chapter 4
Authors notes sorry that took so like to write anyway please review my story.
"That was a very long story, but that clears a lot of things up about your world Aang, thank you but I still have one question how did you survive the attack on the air temples?" Dumbledore asked
"Well I ran away from home because I didn't want to be the Avatar"
"And why was that?"
"Because after the monks told me I was the avatar everything changed. My friends stopped playing with me and then the monks wanted to send me to the eastern air temples because Monk Gyatso and I weren't training enough… so I ran away. But then I flew into a storm…"
"I'm sorry to interrupt but did you say you flew into a storm"
"Oh right, I have a flying bison called Appa he's my animal guide … APPA! I hope he's ok ... I wonder where he is …"
"I'm sure will find him" Zuko said butting in "but could we get on with this story the sooner you tell … fumblemore the better…"
"It's Dumbledore" Dumbledore said laughing followed by everyone except Zuko
"ok well I was flying on Appa when I flew into a storm and we were plunged into the ocean … I don't remember much I think I was becoming unconscious when I went into the avatar state, which is a defence mechanism that enables you with the power of all the pervious avatars."
"Previous avatars?"
"oh yeah um each time the avatar dies they are reincarnated into the next nation and the reincarnation cycle or the avatar cycle is water, earth, fire and air" Dumbledore nodded in fascination. He had never heard of such amazing people before, teenagers who can bend the elements was just too crazy to comprehend and the fact that they were in a war didn't surprise Dumbledore very much considering he himself was in one right now.
"Please continue"
"Well, then I froze myself along with Appa for… 100 years" everyone except team avatar went widened eyed and gasped.
"100 years but your just a child" Ron interrupted and pointing at Aang
"Well you're just a teenager" Aang retorted smiling at Zuko who turned away. Obviously missing what the joke was about started to list a whole bunch of reasons why he wasn't over 100
"Well for one your … how old are you?"
"112"
"This is pointless Ron" Hermione butted in pulling Ron's sleeve. Aang is obviously 112 he knows himself much more than we do so just leave it at that"
Ron glared at Hermione and started murmuring to himself.
"Ok back to the story then uh, Katara and Sokka found me and well I could rant on about my life but I really don't want to so let's just cut to the chase and say now I'm here" Aang finished smiling at them.
"You have had a very interesting life Aang and I'm guessing your friends will have too. In time I would like to hear all of your stories but for now we need to figure out what we're going to do about getting you home, firstly you need a place to stay and I am happy for you all to stay here but for that you'll need to get sorted into houses and we will need a cover up story"
"Why?" Sokka asked always the sceptical one…
"Well because we're also in the middle of a war and if anyone found out about your powers you could be turned over to the dark side"
"Not another war" Aang said putting his head in his hands and sighing dramatically.
"So what's our story going to be" Toph asked
"Well we could be muggles but with powers that wizards and witches don't have" Aang started
"Yea and we could be from a different conty" Sokka added
"Country" Hermione corrected him.
"Country" Sokka corrected himself
"And our families could have rejected us and banished us from home because of those powers" Zuko said glaring at the ground.
"And then one of our best friends, Suki invited us to live here so we came over and found this place and decided to learn magic here" Katara finished
"Perfect, a story that will makes sense of your arrival so tomorrow we shall get you sorted into your houses which are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin"
"But for tonight you can stay in the Gryffindor house I hope you all have a pleasant evening and I shall see you in the morning" Dumbledore said standing up. Everyone said goodbye to Hagrid and Dumbledore and headed downstairs.
It was a long journey to the dormitories as team avatar kept stoping to look at the talking pictures, the moving staircases and the occasional ghosts that floated by.
"Guys please hurry up if Filch catches us we're gonna have a lot of explaining to do" Harry said for the 3rd time.
"Sorry it's just the castle is amazing" Katara said looking up at the ceiling in awe.
"Yea and from what I can feel I share the same thoughts as you Katara" Toph said as she pushed past Sokka. "Ok we can enjoy the castle tomorrow, but I want to get to bed and the dormitories are like right there so can we go" Ron added yawning.
"Hey guys do you remember what the password was?" Harry asked looking back at the others.
"WHAT no… I thought you did!" Ron exclaimed in frustration.
"Hermione do you know?" Harry said turning towards her.
"No not really I thought the password had changed, try …tapeworm"
Harry approached the painted lady and whispered Tapeworm to the painting which immediately sung inwards to revile a port hole which looked like it lead into a room. Harry, Ron and Hermione stepped forward and gestured to the others to follow.
"WOW this place is amazing" Aang exclaimed as they walked in.
"Shhhhh be quite you don't want the rest of the house to wake up" Hermione whispered
"Relax Hermione I'll put a silencing charm on the rooms so we can talk as loud as we like" Harry said taking out his wand. Hermione certainly didn't approve of this but let him do it anyway.
"ok then maybe before we do anything irresponsible maybe we should get to know each other a little bit more…"Hermione said sitting down on one of the red armchairs by the fire. The room was big but it looked small and cosy with all the furniture. There was a fire place on one wall and lots of small red chairs and tables along the others. Everyone followed Hermione and sat down on a chair all except Toph who didn't get a chair so she decided to make one out of earth and sit on it.
"Toph you can't bend the castle like that"
"I can and I just did and relax Katara I can fix it later but I rather not sit on the floor"
"That's exactly what you're doing, except you just raised the floor up to your level"
"Too bad if it's the floor it's the floor. I see it as a chair so please stop talking"
"Ok guys just calm down were all a bit tired and the best thing to do right now is to remain calm because were in a different world and we need to stick together" Aang said calmly.
"Ok then what ever you say" Toph said
"Well then …who wants to go first, well go round in a circle and say 3 facts each about ourselves, is that alright with everyone else?" Hermione asked. But all she received were vacant expressions.
"Fine what do you suggest we do?" Hermione huffed in annoyance.
"Ahh just talk maybe" Sokka suggested
"Fine we'll just talk is that alright with everyone else" everyone nodded.
"Hey I've got a riddle for everyone" Harry announced smiling.
"What do you mean a riddle? What's that?" Suki asked which surprised Harry, Ron and Hermione because she hadn't spoken very much.
"Well umm I can't explain, Hermione can you?"
"Hm... oh right a riddle is a question that you need to think about before you answer. Riddles are logical questions so basically you have to think about the answer in any possible way. got it?"
"Yeah I think so" Suki replied
"Harry, the riddle?" Hermione asked
"Oh yeah well I was walking back to my cousins house when I overheard some teenagers talking"
Harry's memory
"Ok so if I have the power and I give the power to Liam and Liam gives the power to costa and costa gives the power to you who has the power?"
"Uh… Joel, no um Liam?"
"No Ginny has the power" one of the boys said
"BUT HOW THE HELL TO I HAVE THE POWER!" The girl shouted.
Back 3rd person … sorry for the confusion….
"As soon as I heard Ginny's name I turned around but there was only one girl there and she had brown hair that was short and she was tall … and not short unlike Ginny is… anyway they noticed I was staring at them so they walked off and one of them called me a stalker… whatever that is so because I wanted to hear the rest of the riddle I followed them under the invisibility cloak"
Harry's memory
"Ok this has taken like 15 minutes for you to figure out"
"Please just one more time Thomas" the girl… named Ginny said
"Alright then if I have the power and I give the power to Liam and Liam gives the power to you and you give it to that tree and the tree gives the power to costa and costa gives the power to Joel and Joel gives the power to no one, who has the power?" the boy called Thomas said
"I have the power…?"
"Ginny has the power" the group except, Ginny said
"I was right; wait let me think of the answer…. Um is it the first person how speaks after the person says who has the power"
"That is correct" One of the other boys said
"FINALLY that took far too long" she declared
"You're telling us we had to say it to you" the boy said
"Shut up Liam so what if I didn't get it the first time does it matter?"
"No not really anyway lets go piss off the year 7's" the boy called Liam said
"That should be very fun I like pissing them off" another boy said
"Then let's go" Liam announced
Back 3rd person
"So now I know the riddle and I'm going to tell it to you guys… you ready it's called the power riddle"
"So first I give the power to Aang and Aang gives the power to….."
"Ok finally you all figured it out" Harry announced yawning.
"Hey Ron what's the time?" Hermione asked rubbing her eyes.
"Time to get a watch, I'm not your clock" Ron replied angrily.
"It's … 6:00 am CRAP WE'RE GOING TO BE SO TIRED TOMMOROW… I mean today... ah whatever" Ron yelled.
"Take the charms off the other's rooms harry, hey did they fall asleep?" Hermione said pointing to where team avatar were fats asleep
"Yea they fell asleep ages ago all of them understood the riddle except Sokka who fell asleep before he could understand the riddle" Harry said taking away the silencing charms.
"I wonder what their world was like, whom their missing, what's going on, what the time it is for them? Aang said there was a war going on let's hope they get back before that ends" Hermione said solemnly looking out the window.
Authors notes:
Sorry that took so long to write. I was kind of distracted by an animae called bleach. If you haven't seen it then I suggest you watch it. Anyway for those of you who like the yogscast I hope you got my reference that Zuko said which was fumblemore XD. And my friends who are reading this which I hope they are will understand the people I chose for the power riddle XD. I decided to put that in because last Tuesday (I think it was) that whole day was dedicated to riddles don't ask me why that's just how it was, and that day my friends who I mentioned in the story… Liam, Thomas, Costa and Joel they were asking me the power riddle so I thought I might put that in my fanfic and have team avatar and the golden trio try. So I hoped you liked it. I may not have chapter 5 for a while… you can thank bleach for that but I will update as soon as possible XD. Bye
