Prompt 26: Sing
Characters: Asami
Blue birds fluttered throughout the sky, going to and from many places. They traveled through the air, the sky their one true home. They would always have it, it could never be taken from them.
Asami sat on a rock, looking out at the bay that surrounded them on Air Temple Island. This was her home now. Well, more like a place of residence. It wouldn't really be home without her father, and she wouldn't be with him anymore. She couldn't bear to even think of seeing him again. The two of them weren't able to be together anymore. They had different thoughts, different ideas. She couldn't follow him and his plans with Amon.
It would only make me a traitor, she thought to herself. She wouldn't become like him, no matter what happened. She couldn't be a part of the group that would destroy the city she grew up in, the one she had come to love so dearly. It would always have a place in her heart.
As she stared out at the blue water moving slowly around them, a blue bird came and landed next to her on the rock. It didn't move, just sat there and stared back at her. After a moment, it began to chirp, almost as if it was singing a song, a song just to cheer her up.
She smiled at the little bird and sang back its tune. It let out another short song, and she sang that back as well. They did this back and forth until the bird had had enough and flew away to be with the other birds again. It really reminded her that no matter how alone she was, she'd always have some place to go, she just had to find it.
