Chapter 6
Jaeda awoke not too long after that. She looked up at Sokka, who had a weird look on his face. It was kind of a cross between anger and worry.
"Watcha thinking about?" she asked.
Sokka sighed. "I just want to get out of this place..." was his reply.
Then the door suddenly opened. A tall, skinny woman with curly, bright-red hair entered with something in her hand. Sokka and Jaeda looked up at her in surprise.
The woman walked up to the two prisoners. "Here," she said, handing them a sack. "I thought since you're both humans, you have to eat too." She smiled.
Jaeda looked ito the sack. It had some fruit in it, like pears, apples, and grapes, and other stuff like that.
"Uh, Thanks..." said Jaeda.
"No problem, just don't let Prince Zuko know I'm giving you food. He'd kill me!" She walked out of the room, but left the prisonhold door unlocked.
"FOOD!" shouted Sokka, reaching into the sack.
Jaeda covered his mouth. "Shh!" she said with her finger to her lips. "Don't let Zuko hear you."
They both started pigging out like they hadn't eaten in days. "Mmm... food..." Sokka muttered, shoving a handful of berries in his mouth.
Jaeda giggled, and took a big bite out of a pear. "Mmm..." she agreed.
-------
"Much better..." Jaeda sighed once they were finished eating.
Sokka nodded in agreement. But then the expression on his face changed. "...Don't you think that was... kinda strange?" he asked, sounding very confused. "I mean, she didn't even give us her name... Do you think shes after us?" He sounded worried.
Jaeda laughed and rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, Sokka! I mean, sure, she didn't say what her name was, but... Why would she be after us?"
"I don't know," Sokka replied, "but I don't trust her."
"I don't blame you," muttered Jaeda. Then they heard something outside the prisonhold door.
"I DON'T CARE! WE'RE NOT CHANGING COURSES!"
It sounded a lot like Prince Zuko. Sokka and Jaeda froze, holding their breath, listening to the argument.
"The Avatar is going north. Therefore, we must follow him," Zuko commanded.
"Zuko, sir! The Avatar's on deck!"
Jaeda and Sokka looked at eachother and gasped.
"Excellent," Zuko said. "Get him! Before he escapes!" Zuko and his men ran off to find Aang.
Sokka stood up. "Now's our chance! The door's unlocked, so we can escape!" He helped Jaeda up off the floor, although it was painful for her to walk, considering her burn. But she decided to deal with it and they both ran out the door, looking for any sign of Aang.
They finally found him on deck, fighting off some enemy Benders. Katara was using some Waterbending moves on a few other soldiers.
Sokka pulled out his boomerang. He quickly threw it at one of Zuko's men, and knocked him out cold. "Good one!" said Jaeda. Sokka blushed at her comment.
With that blasted burn on her waist, Jaeda couldn't even fight. But... She could Waterbend.
She did the water whip in two soldiers' faces, knocking them unconcious, and sent a gigantic wave after some more Firebenders.
Appa quickly flew by and the four scurried onto his back. That was too easy, Jaeda and Sokka thought with sneaky smiles.
------
"I'm so glad you're both ok!" Katara beamed as she gave Sokka and Jaeda each a hug.
"Careful," Sokka said as Katara hugged Jaeda.
She slowly pulled away, and noticed the bandage that was tightly wrapped around Jaeda's waist. "What happened, Jaeda?" she asked, looking concerned.
"Zuko burned me..." Jaeda replied quietly.
"Ya know," Sokka started, "I would have saved her and kicked Zuko's butt... if I wasn't tied to a tree." He put his arm around Jaeda.
"What did he burn you for?" asked Aang.
"Well... let's just say I spoke my mind," Jaeda said. And for some reason she and Sokka burst into laughter.
Aang and Katara just looked at eachother and shrugged.
"Oh wait a second!" shouted Sokka. "I just remembered... We have some of this medicine to put on your burn."
"Oh..." Jaeda mumbled. She always hated that stuff.
Katara looked in her duffle bag, and she pulled out this little glass bottle and a rag. "Here ya go," she said, handing it to Sokka.
"Um... What is that stuff?" asked Jaeda as Sokka took the bottle out of his sister's hand.
"It's just this stuff that will kinda make your burn heal faster," Sokka replied.
Jaeda groaned. "This is gonna hurt."
"Well, I'm not gonna say it won't sting..." Sokka said as he unwrapped the bandage.
"Great," murmered Jaeda as she layed down. "Just Great."
"Now, before I do this..." Sokka started, "... do you need to have someone hold you down?" He and Katara laughed.
"Yup. This is gonna hurt," Jaeda muttered under her breath, but loud enough for Sokka and Katara to hear. "And, no, I don't need to have someone hold me down."
"Ready?" Sokka asked as he put the medicine on the rag and rubbed it on Jaeda's burn.
"YEEEOOOOWWWW!" she screamed as she sat up with a jolt.
"Just a little more..." Sokka said softly as he continued to clean the painful burn.
"UHG! Just kill me now..." Jaeda wined.
"It's ok, I'm done now," Sokka said as he, to Jaeda's relief, wrapped the bandage around her waist. "Now, that didn't hurt too bad, did it?"
"Oh yeah, it was a real trip to paradise," she replied sarcastically.
"Well, at least your burn will heal better," Katara mentioned.
Jaeda just sighed and layed down in Sokka's arms. They were both pretty exhausted, and needed some rest.
Sokka kissed her cheek. "I love you," he whispered softly in her ear.
Jaeda smiled and kissed him back. "I love you too."
The two of them soon drifted off to sleep.
