Day #19: Honey

There was no time to think, barely time to act. Just feet pattering across the soft, damp ground as quickly as humanly possible. Branches grazed her face, which only fueled her frustration, leaving burnt branches and uprooted trees in her wake. I am going to KILL HIM. She could hear them scampering behind her and almost had half a mind to blast a gust of air at one of them. But that would be a most un-Avatar-like thing to do. Plus, there was the matter of the enraged skunk bear chasing them that she really had no time to think, let alone aim. He had to steal the-"

She crashed head first into the tall lanky figure, which she had not seen, and with a shout, caused him and herself to sprawl out onto the ground. Moments later, she was sandwiched between the two men. The idiot (oh, she was fuming) and her fiancee. Moments later, the rustling of their infuriated predator was heard...

They felt a few gentle air blasts as they got up - more like the young woman shoved the heavy earthbender off of her and ungracefully nearly tripped over the squashed firebender. The source of the skilled airbending was from none other than her disgruntled mentor. It was a little too early in the morning to be dealing with matters as such.

"Could someone please explain to me what is going on?" His left eyebrow arched as he casually sent another soft air blast toward the skunk bear that was slowly retreating.

"CAN WE KEEP IT?" His middle child, Ikki, was so excited she could barely contain herself...which was usually the case, but it was a bit unnatural almost at this hour in the early morning.

"No," turning back to the Avatar and her friends, "Care to explain?"

"PLEASE?" Now, the young girl was twirling on her air bubble, bouncing along, "Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplea se. Can we keep it? I'll keep very good care of it! Puh-leeeeezzzzzz! Pl-"

"Go ask your mother." He instantly regretted it...his poor wife was sleeping still.

Turning back again, he could tell the group was looking rather sheepish, well the earthbender was... the Avatar look ready to kill.

"It's his fault!" When everyone was looking at her, she exclaimed, "He stole the skunk bear's honey! I told him not to!" She looked rather indignant now, especially since her fiancee went from silent chuckling to full out guffawing. "Hey!"

"Bolin was hungry-"

"I told you I was going to make breakfast! STOP LAUGHING at me Mako!"

"Ow!" The firebender rubbed his air-whacked head. "Out of love! I didn't know you cooked."

"I don't!"

"But-"

"I was going to! But Bolin wanted to get honey!"

"Oh, c'mon. Isn't that a little funny? You guys were chased by a skunk bear. For its honey." He smirked.

"That's not the point," she grumbled.

"Well is there any left or did you eat it?" He asked his brother.

"I dropped it," the earthbender.

"OH. I am really GOING TO KILL YOU NOW!" She made to blast him, but was instead intercepted. "HEY! HEY! MAKO. PUT ME DOWN!"

The airbender shook his head as he slowly sidestepped out of the "children's" way and back into his home. Peace and quiet... He heard Ikki crashing into things as she pleaded for a skunk bear. Panicking, he stepped out once again and power-walked to the air temple. I'll just go meditate now...
