Chapter 6: Sleepy Smells and Sleepy Girls

The next morning, Kellie volunteered to get Appa's breakfast and feed him before the other three could even start to decide who did that, and, everything else.

"Why thanks Kellie. That's real nice." Katara complimented.

"Thanks. I just don't like to sit around and watch others work very much like SOME PEOPLE." And Kellie shot a light glare at Sokka. Then she left to get Appa's breakfast.

Once she was quite a ways away from the clearing, she got as much green leaves as her arms could permit her to carry. Then, she mixed the poisonous leaves deep into all the other leaves. The mysterious man from the previous night was watching again.

Good, good child. You'll soon be mine.

"KEL-LIE!"

Kellie looked up at the voice.

"COMING KATARA! I JUST FINISHED GATHERING APPA'S BREAKFAST!" Then she looked regretfully at her gathering, then ran back to camp. The man grinned.

Kellie laid the pile of leaves in front of Appa and made sure that he ate every last leaf. At least the poisonous leaves.

About an hour later, they were just finishing cleaning up the camp when Appa rolled to his side and let out a pain-filled groan.

"What's wrong, buddy?" Aang asked his guide. Katara examined him.

"I think he's eaten something poisonous, Aang." Everyone turned and looked at Kellie.

"If it WAS my fault, I'm not very well associated with this world, so how would I know if something's poisonous?" Kellie asked.

"She does have a point." Aang agreed.

"I don't care!" Sokka yelled. Kellie looked up at him. Her lower lip began to tremble, tears welled in her eyes, then she let the tears flow.

"I didn't know! I'm sorry!" She wailed. If looks could kill, Katara and Aang's glares at Sokka would of made him play a literal game of 'play dead'.

"It's alright Kellie, you didn't know." Katara comforted and gave her a reassuring pat on the back.

"Well, I guess we're gonna have to stay here for awhile until Appa heals." Aang declared. Kellie felt horrible. Tonight she would ask that man for the cure for the leaves.

For the rest of the day, Kellie was told to watch Appa while the others looked for the ingredients for the cure for the poisonous plants that Appa had eaten. Sokka had declared this after last night, when she nearly killed him with his own weapon.

"She'll get anyone, especially that God damned Prince Zuko." He declared. That hurt Kellie, she was about to retort to Sokka's comment, but stopped. Not only would she get kicked out of the group, but that would get rid of her cover. She would have to explain again about how she knew about everything in their lives.

It was nearing noon, and Kellie decided to take a little nap. Sleeping during the day helped her stay up late. And that was what she needed tonight.

With the help of the blazing heat, which acted like a natural lullaby, Kellie soon fell fast asleep.

"Huh? Where am I?" Kellie looked around. There was nothing but pitch black. But the darkness lifted and she was back in her room! "I'm home!" She yelled happily. But something didn't feel right, the air was incredibly still and even more cold, and getting colder by the second. Then, her stereo turned on by itself, and was on disc 6: her Pat Benatar cd, but something was horrifically wrong, instead of starting on 1, it was starting on track 11, the second to last song, called Nobody's Baby. And all it played was one single line out of the entire song, "Before they came, and took his soul," "NO!" Kellie screamed and covered her ears. "NO! NO! NO!"

Kellie woke up, she was sitting in Appa's saddle, the exact same place where she had fallen asleep. But now a quarter of the saddle was filled with her sweat. And it was dark. She saw a dark figure sit up in one of the sleeping bags.

"Kellie?" Katara's voice sounded and Kellie was washed with relief. "Is there something wrong?"

"No Katara, I just had a bad dream, by the way, what time is it?" Kellie said quietly.

"Hmm, I would guess it's about midnight."

"Thanks. Go back to sleep. I'm going for a walk." Kellie said.

"Alright. Have a nice walk." She said then got back in her sleeping bag.

"I'll try to." She whispered then walked to the creek.

"You're as beautiful as ever." Said the voice.

Kellie sighed, this man's act got very old, very quickly.

"Alright, I held up my end of the deal, now who are you?" Kellie said with a hint of anger bleeding her voice.

"Not so fast. I've seen this group many times, but I've never seen you. Tell me your name, then I'll tell you mine." Kellie sighed, apparently, this man had brains.

"My name is Kellie."

"Kellie," said the man, as if testing it. "Such a beautiful name."

Kellie looked up from the water she had been staring at. Noone had ever said her name was beautiful. It clouded her common sense, but only a little bit.

"Ok, now what's your name?" Kellie asked a bit smugly.

"I don't like to say it. It makes me feel ashamed. I'll write it, but you have to come here." He said. Kellie stepped forward, but she was wary. Her mother worked for a domestic violence center, so she knew that men would start to do things when they said such a comment. She stepped until she was right at the bushes, and right in front of the man. Suddenly, his hand came out and wrapped itself around Kellie's waist. She tried to scream, but his other hand put itself over her nose and mouth.

The man's hand was full of sleeping powder, which Kellie inhaled. She suddenly fell asleep. Her weight went straight into falling onto her back, and her weight dragged the man out from the shadows. His scar shone bright in the moonlight. Zuko picked Kellie up bridal style, then headed back to his ship.

HA! Did u know it wuz Zuko? Know it wuz him in the shadows and his voice in the breeze? I know I did. Y? cuz I'm the writer and I wuz planning this! Well, I'll probably write more soon, until then, R&R!

INSANITY AT ITS FINEST
