Chapter Two: Koakao
Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar...bla bla bla...but I DO own General Xokku and Yoshiro! MINE!
"So, where are we, exactly?" Yoshiro asked her father. They had spent two days on the ship so far.
"We're near Koakao, the last place where the Avatar—and Prince Zuko—were," Xokku replied.
"Oh."
Yoshiro headed back to her quarters. It was quite boring. She was the only girl on the ship. She didn't even have a pet to play with.
"I have to practice. I promised Father I would," Yoshiro said to herself. She left her quarters and headed to the other side of the ship. She knew of a small room that only had brooms and buckets and that sort of bits and pieces, but she could just move them into the closet once she got inside.
Yoshiro had trained with the best, right? Well, she did, but she couldn't master it as well as the other students.
What was wrong with me, Yoshiro reflected on her recollections of training.
Flashback two years ago:
"Yoshiro, it's a simple move, really. The Fire Lash is one of the most basic Firebending moves. It's an uncomplicated movement of the wrist," Yoshiro's tutor, Fire Sage Sheotze, had made her stay after for an extra hour.
"I can't do it. Something's wrong with me," Yoshiro said.
"Well, if you say you can't, then you don't know," Fire Sage Sheotze smiled, and then said,
"Let's practice a little more."
"Okay."
Yoshiro had got that move, the Fire Lash, after a month of training.
After making a clearing to practice, she started off with warm ups. She started off with some splits, stretches and some push ups. Yes, Yoshiro had been taught that push ups help your firebending. Which, to Yoshiro, was true.
Just when Yoshiro was about to start with some round kicks, her father called for her.
"Yes, Father?"
"Where were you?"
"Training. Why?" Yoshiro replied.
"We landed on Koakao. You want to come, or stay? I must warn you, if you do come, Koakao has a hostile environment," Xokku warned Yoshiro.
"I'll come. I'm strong," Yoshiro smiled.
"If you see the Avatar OR Prince Zuko, let me or Commander Zhao know, okay?" Xokku smiled, then let her explore.
"I'll let you know, Father," Yoshiro headed west, while Commander Zhao and General Xokku headed north.
Yoshiro got tangled in the immense forest. She had to burn down some plants just to get through. It was hot, humid and dry. After just an hour, Yoshiro felt sweaty and thirsty.
"Oh god, I'm gonna die," Yoshiro said to herself. Yoshiro looked deeper into the forest and looked for some water.
"It's way too hot," Yoshiro complained.
She took off her outer clothes, and had a short orange top with the Fire Nation symbol engraved on it, and a short skirt that was red and black pants underneath. She was still hot, but at least she wasn't wearing a second layer of clothing.
"I can't believe I had to wear that."
Who ever made women's clothes, I hope they die, Yoshiro thought. Then she felt her foot step in something cold. She looked down.
"Water!"
Yoshiro cupped her hands and started to drink from it.
"Isn't it revitalizing?" Someone said to her.
Yoshiro looked up.
"Who are you?"
S.E.: I can't decide if Yoshiro will meet Prince Zuko (again) or the Avatar...help me!
Chi: Zuko!
Natasha: Aang!
S.E.: I don't know which one! With Chi and Natasha arguing,I can't concentrate! I want my cheeseburger!
Natasha: Bye! (continues arguing with Chi)
