The Second Avatar – Part 5: New Questions
Sakura stood dead still with her eyes glowing brightly. Katara fixed her gaze on Aang who now was creating huge gust of wind. The group laid flat on the ground as the harsh winds started to get fast.
Katara covered her head and scooted closer to Sokka. She felt the wind pick up even more. She felt the tearing and slashing of debris hard on her back. She looked up to see Aang hovering the air surrounded in what seemed to be a small twister. She held her upper body up with one hand and she turned to her side so she was facing Aang. She knew that she had stopped and calmed Aang down before, but could she do it again?
She slowly crawled over to a small tree, fighting the pulling winds. She used it to help her stand and face Aang. "Aang, it'll be okay. You still have us as your friends and nothing can change that. Momo may be gone, but his spirit will always be within you. He wouldn't want you being angry he'd want you to be happy and live life to the best. Please Aang, Momo wouldn't want you to be like this." Katara paused and discovered that she had started to cry. She felt the winds start to die down.
Aang was lowering himself slowly to the ground. As he reached the ground Katara ran for him and caught him as he collapsed. Sakura collapsed to the ground behind them. The light died down and disappeared.
Aang opened his eyes and looked at Katara. "Thanks, Katara. You're right Momo wouldn't want me to be like this. But he isn't coming back, is he?"
Katara shifted Aang into an upright position. She smiled and turned to Sakura. Sokka was helping her to her feet. Katara did the same with Aang who was weak and worn out.
"Is she going to be okay?" Katara asked Sokka as he picked Sakura up.
"Yeah I think so. It was so weird that she began to glow the same time Aang did. I think there's a secret that she didn't tell us."
Miki jumped up on Sokka's shoulder and chirped quietly. The group headed into the woods, back to the camp to get on Appa.
They crossed the stream and saw Appa sitting by the fire pit. "Hey buddy. How are ya?" Aang fast walked over to Appa and jumped on his head. "So is Sakura coming with us?" he asked.
The chief walked up to Appa. "It's best that she does. There is a lot about her that you don't know and need to. But you will find that out in time. Where are you headed?"
Katara put the sleeping bags and some pouches of berries on Appa and climbed up to his saddle. "We're going to the North Pole, so Aang can learn some more Waterbending. Then we'll head to an Earth village for him to learn Earthbending."
Sokka slowly set Sakura down on Appa's saddle and climbed on himself.
"Have great journey, and the best of luck to all of you."
"Same with you, sir. Appa, yip-yip!" with a grunt Appa took off into the air flying over what seemed to be an endless forest.
