Jet
Aqua's P.O.V
"Where's Momo?" Aang looked around, confused as can be as I heard the screech of Momo and stood, running through the trees.
I looked above me to see Momo in a cage in the tree tops and twirled my hand in the 'coo-koo' motion as a large spiral of water began beneath my feet and took me to the tree tops. The rest of the gaang arrived below as I pulled open the top, lifting out Momo and taking us down. He immediately leapt out of my arms and nibbled on a red berry.
"What? No thank you?" It was almost like the lemur heard me as Momo turned his head, chirping and chittering.
"Much better." I smiled.
Aang heard the growls and whimpers of the animals above him as he jumped on the trunk of the trees.
"This'll take forever!" Sokka pulled out his boomerang and threw it, letting it cut the ropes holding the animals' cages above.
"That works too…" Aang was found inching his way along a trunk upside down like a caterpillar.
"These are Fire Nation traps, you can tell from the metal work." Sokka ran a hand along the bars of the cage as Aang dropped beside me.
"We better pack up camp and get along then." I said, crossing my arms as we made our way back.
OoOoOoOoO
Sokka pulled tightly on the leather binds holding the sleeping bag in its rolled up state.
"Nu-uh, no flying this time!" Sokka stopped me as I was about to hand Aang a sleeping bag on Appa.
"Why wouldn't we fly!?" Aang asked, confused.
"Think about it, somehow Prince Zuko and the Fire Nation keep finding us, it's because they spot Appa, and he's just too noticeable!"
Katara huffed, setting her hands on her hips.
"What, Appa's not too noticeable!" She screeched as I rolled my eyes.
"Katara, be realistic, as dumb as Sokka can be, he's right, he's a giant, magical, flying cotton ball." Appa let out an annoyed growl.
"Dumb!?" Sokka glared.
"Sorry, Appa, I'll get you some nice juicy watermelons." Appa let out a grateful growl and licked my side.
"I mean, he's a giant cloud with an arrow on his head!" Appa huffed at Sokka as Aang smiled down at his bison.
"Sokka's just jealous because he doesn't have an arrow."
"As much as I want to fly, my instincts tell me we should play it safe and walk."
"Who made you the boss?" Katara lifted an eyebrow.
"I'm not the boss, I'm the leader!" He pointed a thumb on his chest.
"Y-You're the leader, but your voice still cracks!" I covered my mouth to hide a laugh.
"I'm the oldest, and I'm a warrior so…I'm the leader…" His voice went from high, to normal and really abnormally deep.
"If anyone's the leader it's Aang, I mean, he is the Avatar!"
"Are you kidding, he's just a goofy kid!" We turned our attention to Aang who was hanging upside down from of Appa's horns.
"He's right!" Aang agreed while they ignored the constant roll of my eyes.
"Why do boys always think someone has to be the leader, I bet you wouldn't be so bossy if you kissed a girl!"
"I've kissed a girl…! Almost…" He muttered.
"Who, Gran-Gran, I've met Gran-Gran?" Aang stifled his laughter while thoughts ran through my head, what if it was me who he kissed…No! Stop that Aqua!
OoOoOoOoO
Aang let out a huff.
"Walking sucks, how does anyone get around without a flying bison!?"
"I don't know Aang, why don't you ask Sokka's instincts!?"
"That's a great idea, hey Sokka instincts-"
"Will you all shut your fucking trap holes?!" I screeched down at them from Appa while they looked up surprised.
"Sorry…?" Aang said it more like a question while I huffed, leaping off Appa as he stood still for a moment growling. I raised an eyebrow, walking through a bush with the rest, trying to think of which episode this was until I looked forward to see a camp of Fire Nation soldiers.
"Run!" I we dropped our packs, trying to run back until they set the bush alight and we were trapped.
"Don't come any closer and we won't hurt you!" Sokka said.
"What are you doing, I'm taking action!" I summoned my sword from data and got into a stance.
"Hurt us? Please-" He fell forwards, an arrow sticking out form his back.
"Whoa, great job Sokka, how'd you do it?"
"Um…instincts…?" I tried thinking which episode it was and stopped, shocked, I hadn't got this far and had only started watching the show, this was as far as I'd gotten and didn't know what to expect and for once in this universe I felt actually scared. I looked up to see a boy with shaggy dark brown hair and chocolate brown eyes, two hook swords gripped tightly in his hands. He landed on two soldiers backs and then hooked his hook swords on two soldiers' ankles and flipped them over, flipping himself forwards and into a crouch.
"Down you go!" I looked at him surprised and jumped over his crouched form, slicing at through a soldiers chest pate as a bit of blood spewed onto my clothes.
"Thanks…" The boy smirked as I smirked back.
"Anytime." I kicked a soldier up the chin, slicing at his arm as he collapsed, clutching it to stop the blood, running into battle as more of his gang appeared.
"They're in the trees!" A young boy with an oversized helmet landed on the solders shoulders, pulling his helmet around so the soldier was momentarily blinded. Some were shot down by an archer in the tree tops as more of them dropped to the ground. They were all definitely trained in combat as they fought well.
A soldier came from behind the boy as he turned with a gasp, not prepared until the soldier's spear was knocked clean out of his hands, pinned to a tree by my sword as I ran forward and drop kicked him on the side of his face. I stood brushing off the dust as the boy and I were chest to chest.
"Hi…" He said as I smiled back, holding out a hand as my sword disappeared from the tree trunk and reappeared in my hand in data as the boy looked down, shocked.
"My name is Jet, and these are my Freedom Fighters. " He introduced them all, Sneers, the one eating, Longshot, the archer, Smellerbee, the one with the sword and daggers, wearing face paint, The Duke, the small one, and Pipsqueak, the taller one holding the log.
"Pipsqueak, that's a funny name!" Aang let out a laugh.
"You think my name is funny?" The taller one said, as Aang had mistaken the small one for pipsqueak.
"It's hilarious!" Pipsqueaks stood still for a moment, and let out a laugh with Aang and The Duke, slapping Aang on the back and managing to make him fall over.
OoOoOoOoO
"Hey, Jet, I just wanted to say thanks, for helping us take out the soldiers." I gave a smile as Jet returned the smile.
"We were waiting to ambush the soldiers all day, we needed a distraction, and you guys showed up."
"We were relying on instinct…" I rolled my eyes as Jet smirked.
"You'll get yourself killed doing that." The Duke put a finger in the barrel, sniffing the yellow substance on his finger.
"Hey Jet, these barrels are filled with blasting jelly!" Jet smiled.
"Good score." Pipsqueak held up a crate.
"And these boxed are filled with jelly candy!" I looked up, my attention caught.
"Jelly beans, gimmee, gimmee, gimmee!" I ran over, opening the crate and pulling out a sweet, popping it in my mouth with a delighted smile.
"She sure loves candy…" Jet smiled.
"Yep, off the scale loving it…" Katara deadpanned as I popped more sweets through my lips, savouring the sweet taste.
"Let's take this all back to the hideout!" The Duke shouted towards us.
"You have a hideout!?" Aang asked, clearly surprised.
"Wanna see it?" Jet asked.
"Sure!" I lifted some candy, popping it in my mouth and chewing as I put the now ¾ filled crate in the trailer.
OoOoOoOoO
"We're here!" Jet said as we looked around confused.
"Where, there's nothing here!?" Sokka looked about as Jet handed him a long rope with a loophole at the end.
"Why, what's this doooooooooo-whaaaaaaaaaa!" He was shot into the trees as Jet lifted an eyebrow to Aang, holding out a long rope.
"No thanks, I'll get up on my own!" He pulled the air currents around him, jumping from trunk to trunk.
Jet held out a hand to me as Katara was shot into the trees.
"Grab hold of me?" I walked forwards hesitant until he grabbed me by the hand, twirling me into his arms as we rose into the tree, a hot blush across my cheeks, I couldn't handle these feelings, they were way too much.
"It's amazing!"
"It is, and more importantly, the Fire Nation can't find us!" He grinned beside me, still holding me in his arms.
"They'd love to find you, wouldn't they Jet?" Smellerbee shot up beside us with a smirk.
"Why?" I lifted an eyebrow.
"We've been causing them a little trouble."
"Cutting off their supply lines, ambushing them, doing anything we can to mess with them!" Pipsqueak walked up on the bridge beside us as Sokka walked around him, trying to see.
"Yeah, nothings better than a guy in a tree house…" I lifted an eyebrow as he pushed in between us, pushing me farther from Jet as he kept me close to him; I blushed again, not noticing the slightly jealous look on Jet's face.
OoOoOoOoO
"Today, we struck another blow against the Fire Nation swine!" We all sat on a bench with a table covered in food, other fighters in the tree tops as we cheered and clapped.
"I had one good moment when The Duke dropped on a soldier's helmet and rode him like a wild hog-monkey!" The Duke stood on the table with Jet, walking and throwing his arms in the air as we cheered.
"But what was especially amazing." His eyes darted to mine as I raised an eyebrow.
"Was when I could've been killed…" They all gasped, looking to him confused.
"But, the beautiful Aqua saved my life, slicing him clean to the chest!" They all let out loud cheers as Jet grabbed me by the hand and pulled me to his chest as a crimson blush scattered across my features and Sokka glared in envy. He placed a small peck on my cheek as the fighters cheered louder and Sokka glare hardened as my blush deepened. He sat down beside me, nudging me slightly as I smiled, the blush hardly fading.
"I'm afraid we have to leave in the morning!" Sokka stood walking away until Jet interrupted him.
"Are you kidding, I needed you on an important mission!" Sokka turned, slightly interested.
"What mission…?"
OoOoOoOoO
"Sokka, you told them what happened but you didn't mention the guy was Fire Nation." We stood in Jet's tent as Sokka tried to say what happened.
"Even if he was Fire Nation, he was a harmless old man."
"He was sent to eliminate me, see there's a compartment in the knife for poison, you saved my life, Sokka."
"I thought there was an explanation!" Katara glared at Sokka.
"I didn't see a knife!"
"That's because he was concealing it!" As I listened on, something didn't seem too right.
"See, I'm sure you just didn't see it Sokka!" Katara said.
Sokka huffed leaving the tent as I followed him.
"Something doesn't seem right, Sokka…" He turned towards me with a hopeful look.
"I knew someone would believe me!" I smiled.
OoOoOoOoO
"Let's go…" I jumped awake as I watched Sokka glare out of the tent flap and ran out, him closely behind me.
We used the ropes to swing down from the tree as we hid behind a trunk, watching Jet speak with his freedom fighters. Sokka stood on the ground while I sat on a branch.
"Now listen, you're not to blow the dam until I give the signal, if the reservoir isn't full, the Fire Nation could survive." I gasped mentally as Sokka stared shocked until Pipsqueak grabbed him by his warrior's wolf tail and Smellerbee held a dagger at his throat.
"Where do you think you're going, Ponytail!?"
The sun started rising as they brought Sokka forward towards Jet, as I sat in the treetops.
"That lying asshole…" I murmured.
Jet spoke things to him, I couldn't hear as he sent them away with Sokka, but before they could take Sokka away, I jumped out from the trees.
"You motherfucker!" I glared at him as he stared, shocked.
"A-Aqua, this isn't what it looks like!" I growled, summoning my sword.
"I trusted you!" I swipe at him as he leaned back.
"You!" I swiped again.
"Conniving"
"Asshole!"
He kicked out a foot sending me sprawling to the floor as I tried standing, but felt a blow to the head that knocked me unconscious.
OoOoOoOoO
I opened my eyes to see Katara and Aang on the cliff, watching them set up the basting jelly.
"Mphmphh, mphmphmph!" They turned their heads with a gasp as they pulled away my binds and gag.
"*cough cough!* that-That bloody dick!" I wiped my mouth and ran forwards as Aang tried taking off on his staff but it was knocked away.
"Jet…why?" Katara asked.
"Why…?" I asked, tears filling my eyes.
"I thought Sokka would understand but…" I gasped.
"Where's Sokka!" Tear poured down my face as Jet tried placing a hand on my cheek as I silently cried and pulled water from the atmosphere and shot it at him, knocking him back.
"I need to get to the dam!" I ran ahead until Jet swiped at me, back on his feet.
"You're not getting anywhere!" I growled, becoming impatient as I transformed letting a beacon of white light accompanied by 0's, 1's and 2's cover me as I became Purple Heart.
"I'll take you down if it's the last thing I do!" I summoned my Purple and Black katana.
"I'll end this, Neptune Break!" I shouted my skill, holding my katana above my head as I sped past Jet, swiping and slicing each time as he let out shouts of pain. I landed on the ground and then turned around, rocketing towards him as I shot my sword through him, the whole area flashing purple. I landed on the ground and threw my katana in the air, catching it again.
"The finishing strike!"
I sped up towards him as I sliced across his side and stabbed my sword straight through him, letting Katara freeze him to a tree.
He started whistling as Katara stared shocked.
"What are you…no!" I took off into the air, flying towards the town and landing in it, but it was deserted. I smiled; Sokka had been here, thank the spirits. I looked to the side to see the massive tsunami like wave of water come towards me as I shot into the sky and landed beside Katara and Aang.
"Sokka's cleared out the village, they're all safe."
"No!" Jet growled.
Sokka came up on Appa's head.
"The village didn't believe me, but the old man you attacked vouched for me." He continued my statement. They all got onto Appa as I floated above the ground.
"Aqua, please, help me…" I looked back at him, crystal blue eyes glaring.
"My name is Purple Heart, you have done wrong Jet, I'll never help you, goodbye…" Tears poured down my cheeks as I rocketed into the air, the rest of the gaang flying on Appa beside me.
"Why'd you go to the village instead of the dam, let me guess…instincts…?" Katara asked.
"Sometimes they're right!" I smirked.
"Hey Sokka, you know you're going the wrong way right?" I stopped flying, just floating in the air as he smiled in my direction.
"And sometimes they're wrong…"
Demonpie17: So sorry it's been forever, I'll try updating as soon as I can for Bride for the Flames, until next time!
