On with Chapter 10!
Chapter 10
The sun was setting, and it was starting to get somewhat cool outside. The four were getting their things all ready and loaded onto Appa's back. "Well, I think that's everything..." Aang said as he loaded his sleeping bag on the furry animal's saddle.
"Wait, we still have two more sleeping bags to go," Sokka mentioned as he and Jaeda were rolling up their's.
Katara looked out at the ocean. The sunset is so beautiful- Then something interrupted her thoughts. "Guys! We better go! Now!" she shouted as she scurried over to Appa.
Sokka looked confused. "What's the rush?" he said lazily.
Jaeda's eyes widened. "Fire Nation ship!" she shouted. She quickly threw her sleeping bag on Appa's back, but froze when a blast of fire was shot in her direction.
"What the-" she muttered as she turned around to see Prince Zuko's ship about three feet away from the shore. There was another blast of fire shot at her, and knocked her down.
"Get them!" the jerk of a prince shouted, and right away his men were out of the ship.
Sokka helped Jaeda up and they ran as fast as they could to get to Appa, but a soldier had already grabbed ahold of Jaeda.
Sokka ran back to help the struggling Jaeda, and Aang and Katara tried their best to fight off some other soldiers.
"Let go of her!" Sokka shouted as he took out his trusty boomerang, and quickly threw it at the soldier trying to capture Jaeda. Because of the sharp blade, it left a bloody and painful scratch on his face. The soldier must have been a whimp, because he imediatly dropped Jaeda to the ground, just so he could put his hand over the mark.
As Sokka bent down to help Jaeda, another Firebender threw something at her head, knocking her unconcious. You'll pay for that! Sokka thought, punching that soldier in the face, giving him a bloody nose.
Aang swung his staff at some of the soldiers as they tried to kidnap Jaeda, knocking them out. Luckily, Aang and Katara caused enough of a distraction for Sokka to carry Jaeda over to Appa's saddle for saftey. "Guys! Hurry up!" Sokka shouted impatiently as he gently layed her down. Aang and Katara quickly hopped on Appa's saddle. "Yip yip!" Aang shouted, and they took off, trying to get away from Zuko and his men.
-------
"You are such disgrace!" Zuko shouted as his men boarded his ship. "You're all a bunch of weaklings!"
"But, Prince Zuko, sir, we managed to knock that warrior girl out-"
"I SAID I WANTED THE AVATAR!" Zuko scowled.
"Well, why don't you try and capture him by yourself, if you thnk you're so good!" one of the soldiers said, almost under his breath, but loud enough for Zuko to hear. He growled and threw a blast of fire at the soldier, and without turning back, stormed off to his room to meditate, so he could clear his head.
-------
Sokka layed Jaeda's head in his lap, and put his hand on her arm, hoping she would wake up soon.
"Oh my gosh!" Katara said as she scanned the unconcious Jaeda. "What happened to her?"
"A soldier knocked her out," Sokka replied angrily. "That bastard," he muttered under his breath.
"She should wake up soon," Aang said. "You guys look tired. I think you should get some sleep."
Katara yawned. "Good night," she said, and she moved to Appa's head. She soon fell asleep on Aang's shoulder.
Sokka didn't exactly want to sleep when his girlfriend was unconcious like this. But he was exausted. He held Jaeda close to him, hoping it would make him feel a little better, and soon after that, he drifted off to sleep.
-------
Jaeda awoke the next morning, before the sun was completely up, with a throbbing head ache. "Huh- where am I?" she muttered to herself with a moan, rubbing her aching head. She noticed Aang and Katara snoozing on Appa's head. Then she realized she was in Sokka's arms. He was still sleeping soundly, and she didn't want to wake him, so she leaned her head back against his chest and hoped to the Gods that her pounding head ache would go away soon.
Then she heard a loud yawn. She looked up to see Sokka rubbing his eyes. "Good morning..." he said sleepily. "How are you feeling?" he asked.
Jaeda sighed. "My head is killing me," she groaned. Then she scooted back a little so she could talk to Sokka easier. "What happened?" she asked.
"Those soldiers knocked you out yesterday- what's wrong?" He noticed Jaeda had her hand on her shoulder, wincing in pain.
"Huh?" she muttered. "Oh, i-it's nothing..."
Sokka removed her hand from her shoulder to see a deep cut that was still bleeding. "Your hurt!"
"No, really, Sokka... it's no big deal-" she said, continuing to wince.
"Here..." Sokka said, as he found some bandages in his sister's duffel bag. He wrapped some around Jaeda's bloody shoulder. "There... It should heal better now," he said.
"Uh, thanks..." Jaeda said. Then she kissed his cheek, and layed her head on his shoulder. "Where are we going next?" she asked flatly.
"Aang said we're going to this island, but we probably won't get there until tonight," Sokka replied. Then he glanced over at his sister, who's head was leaning on Aang's shoulder. "Are Aang and Katara a couple now, or something?" he asked.
"Most likely..." Jaeda said, remembering what they had each told her the other day. She and Sokka snickered softly.
"I kinda figured he liked Katara..." Sokka added, still giggling. Then Aang started snoring loudly, and they laughed even harder.
"Tell me I don't snore like that!" Sokka managed to say through all his laughter.
"Not even close!" Jaeda giggled. "And you snore pretty loud!" She laughed even more.
Sokka blushed. "Very funny..." he muttered. Jaeda kept snickering until she finally decided to say something. "You hungry?" she asked as she dug through a duffle bag and pulled out some fruit.
"Am I ever!" Sokka replied happily as he and Jaeda gobbled down what all they had left of their food. But they did manage to save some for Aang and Katara, whenever those sleepy-heads decided to wake up.
