After hours of tossing and turning, Aang had finally been able to fall asleep. No later though, the sun began to rise. The strong sunlight hit his closed eyelids. Turning slightly in his sleep to face away from the rays of light, he scrunched his eyes. Still laying on the sleeping mat, but now awake, he heard someone walking towards him. He turned his face to glance at who it was.
Aang smiled, "Oh, hey Katara." he greeted his friend.
Smiling back, she said "Hey, Aang." she paused, "Is anything wrong?" she asked.
He shook his head, "Nothing's wrong, nothing. Why would you think that?" he denied.
Gesturing towards the awake and ready Sokka, she explained "Because you're usually up before any of us, especially Mr. Sleep all day over there." She sat down next to Aang, "So what's wrong?"
Sighing, he shrugged. "Last night, I couldn't sleep."
Raising an eyebrow, she questioned "Why?"
Shrugging his shoulders, he whispered "I don't know. I…Had a dream…" he hesitated.
Urging him to continue, she smiled and said "You know you can tell me anything, right?"
He nodded, slowly. "It was odd, my dream. I was in a forest filled with trees…and I was alone…and it was so quiet…and…someone I didn't know was calling my name…and their laughter and voice sounded so familiar…and what the person said…" he stopped, and sighed.
"What did the person say in your dream?" she asked with concern in her voice.
He shook his head, "I can't remember."
Patting his shoulder, she smiled. "It's okay. Tell me if and when you do remember. Okay?"
He nodded, "Alright, I'll do that."
She smiled. Standing up, she offered a hand to Aang, whom gladly accepted it.
They walked towards where the breakfast was, with Katara in the lead. Sokka was seated on Appa, eating what looked to be an exotic banana. Momo sat perched onto of Appa's head, nibbling down on a peach. Appa groaned in hunger.
Smiling, Aang placed a three-fourth of a juicy watermelon in the big bison's mouth. "Here you go." he said. His stomach growled, telling him of his own hunger. He turned to face the brunet colored haired tan skin girl. "Katara?" he asked.
Turning, in her hand was a bowl of fresh cut fruits. She grinned at him, "I'm already on it."
Smiling back full forth, he thanked her "Thanks."
She nodded, "No problem. What are friends for?"
Holding back a sigh, he nodded. "Right…Friends…" and took the bowl.
Somewhere else, in another world, a woman in black was making her way to huge golden gates. She knocked twice on the gates. Moments later, a voiced boomed through the intercom next to the entrance.
"State your name and business!" the voice from the intercom said.
Not a bit afraid from the booming voice, the lady in black replied "Sayuri. And my business is my business, young man!"
"Alright lady, calm down." the voice ordered, and moments later the gates were opening.
Taking a quick glance before walking on in, she sighed "It's just as how I imagined it."
