HotXbun: Welcome to the semi final day of my two year anniversary extravaganza! Today is all about Avatar! The Last Airbender. Not the one about large blue people. But that would be cool.
Sokka will learn something from Suki in this chapter.
Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar The Last Airbender or the other Avatar about blue people.
Chapter 7 Girls Can Fight Too!
Sokka's POV
Everybody was having breakfast the next day.
"Alright", Aang yelled happily. "Desert for breakfast! These people sure know how to treat an Avatar!"
Aang started eating before looking at my sister.
"Katara, you have to try this", he stated.
"Maybe just a bit", Katara said before she started eating.
Aang looked at me.
"What's your problem Sokka", he asked. "Eat!"
"Not hungry", I stated.
"But you're always hungry", Aang pointed out. [Avatar Extra: It's true.]
"Sokka just can't except that there is such a thing as female warriors", Katara stated.
"It's absurd", I stared. "Who in their right mind would let girls fight?"
"Girls are allowed to join the army in the Fire Nation", Iroh revealed.
"And even though the war is bad, they have been doing well in it", Zuko added.
"Exactly", I stated. "If the bad guys are doing it then it has to be bad!"
"It is not the action which is bad", Iroh started. "But the person who does it." [Avatar Extra: Huh?]
I looked at Zuko in confusion.
"My uncle is always coming up with weird sayings that don't make sense", he revealed.
"Whatever", I said. "I'm gonna go to the Kyoshi Warriors dojo."
Before I left I picked up one of the deserts and bit into it.
"This is tasty." [Avatar Extra: Oh Sokka.]
...
I walked into the dojo where I saw Suki and the other Kyoshi Warriors practicing.
"Sorry ladies", I said as I started stretching. "I didn't mean to interrupt your dance lesson. I just wanted to find a good place to work out."
"Well", Suki started. "You came to the right place. I'm sorry about yesterday. I didn't know you were friends with the Avatar."
"It's alright", I stated. "I mean, usually I would hold a grudge, but since you're a bunch of girls, I'll make an exception."
"I would hope so", Suki stated. "A big strong man like yourself? We wouldn't stand a chance."
"That is correct", I stated. "After all I'm the best warrior in my entire village."
"Oh wow", Suki said in awe. "Your entire village. Well then. You wouldn't mind showing us some tricks, would you?"
"Um...", I said nervously.
"Come on girls", Suki said. "Wouldn't it be nice to see some moves?"
Everybody nodded.
"Okay then", I nervously said before I put Suki in front of me. "Okay. This may be hard, but try to block me."
I tried to punch Suki, but she blocked me by poking my armpit with a fan! [Avatar Extra: Ouch.]
"Good job", I stated. "Of course, I was going easy on you." [Avatar Extra: Yeah right.]
"Of course", Suki stated.
"Let's see you dodge this", I yelled before I tried striking Suki again.
But before I could, she threw me to the ground and fanned herself.
"That's it", I yelled before I tried to strike Suki.
She grabbed onto my arm, spun me around, grabbed my belt and tied my hand and leg together, causing me to fall to the ground.
"How was that for a girl", Suki asked sarcastically causing everybody else to laugh.
Ten Minutes Later
I was sitting outside the dojo thinking.
I realized that I had something to say to Suki and I went back inside.
"Hey Suki", I said nervously.
"Ready for another dance lesson", Suki asked sarcastically.
"I...I...", I said nervously.
"Spit it out", Suki commanded. "What do you want?"
I didn't answer. Instead, I got down on my knees in front of Suki. [Avatar Extra: (Mouth hangs open.)]
"I would be honored if you would train me." [Avatar Extra: (Mouth still hanging open).]
"Even if I'm a girl", Suki asked with a bit of venom in her voice.
"I am so sorry about what I said Suki", I apologized. "I judged you solely on your gender and that was wrong. I want to make things right. I want to give the Kyoshi Warriors a proper chance. Please let me." [Avatar Extra: Wow. Deep.]
Suki looked at me in shock.
"Wow", she said. "That was actually really sweet." [Avatar Extra: Yeah is was.]
"So what do you say", I asked.
Suki thought about before giving me her answer. [Avatar Extra: Come on! He's on his knees. HIS KNEES!]
"Okay", Suki replied. "But you have to follow all our rules."
"Of course", I stated.
"And I mean all of them", Suki stated.
One Hour Later
That's how I found myself wearing the Kyoshi Warriors uniform, which was a dress! [Avatar Extra: (Laughing).]
"Do I have to wear this", I asked. "It feels kinda...girly."
"It's a warrior's uniform", Suki pointed out. "You should be proud. The silk thread is the brave blood that flows through our veins. The gold insignia, represents the honor of the warriors heart."
"Bravery and honor", I said proudly.
"Hey Sokka", Aang said as he walked by. "Nice dress."
With that Aang walked away as I sulked.
HotXbun: Poor Sokka.
Challenge: Tell me how you think Sokka's training will go.
My Answer: You'll have to wait and see.
