Hi! this is my first Avatar: Last Air bender fic! so be nice and review! and I don't own Anything! alrighty then! now enjoy the story!
It's a peaceful morning, and the wind is softly blowing as Katara, Aang, and Sokka are riding Appa. The silence was just enough for Sokka and Katara to bear, but not Aang.
"Hey, look! There's an island! Can we go down there?" Aang asked Katara, knowing that she would object if he just commanded Appa to land on the island.
"No, Aang. We need to get you to the North Pole, and train harder so you can become a more powerful Avatar and be able to defeat the Fire Nation." Katara replied.
"But I want to land!" Aang becomes all pouty, and then making the "can I please, please, please, please!" face And eventually Katara breaks down and lets Aang go down to the island. Upon reaching their destination, they come across a sign that says: Welcome to Baku Island. Then in small print: If you are new to Baku Island, then we suggest that you visit the town mayor before going anywhere. The village is in the center of the island. Tread if you dare.
"Tread? What does that mean?" Sokka asked.
"It means 'to come'. So basically it's a 'come at your own risk sign'." Katara explained.
"Oh..." Sokka and Aang said simultaneously.
"Come on, let's go meet the mayor." Aang replied.
"Fine, Aang, but just for a little bit. We need to get to the north pole to find you a Waterbending teacher." Katara said in her motherly voice like always, whenever confronting Aang.
As the three walked to the center of Baku Island, Aang noticed that they were being watched. Though he didn't want to say anything just in case he was right and he felt that the time was wrong to say it. After walking for at least most of the day, they encounter a lemur that looks a lot like Momo.
"Come here little guy." Aang said. The little lemur inches closer, though it still has fear in it's eyes. Finally, the lemur jumps into Aang's hands and falls asleep. While they entered the village, they received stares from all of the townspeople. They were wearing the normal clothes, though the only thing that could be seen as a color, on their clothes, was red. Aang, Katara, and Sokka gasped and whispered "fire nation."
"What are you three doing? Why aren't you wearing red? It's understandable if you don't wear a lot of red, but a little of the color is reasonable." said one of the fire nation's guards. He was wearing standard armor and was accompanied by two other guards, who are also wearing the armor.
"Well, it said on the sign that we should go see the mayor... and we are doing as we are told to!" Aang retorted. The three guards looked at each other and formed a circle. They were whispering and then finally one of the guards emerges to talk to the trio while the other two walks away in the other direction.
"Fine then, just follow me. And by the way, my name's Jack, Head of the security here on the island." (Just so you know, I totally suck with names and I couldn't think of any so I used that name, okay?) Jack, the guard, led the trio to a huge white building with the words "Mayor's Office" in big capital letters of red coloring. Walking up the stairs, the lemur (that Aang befriended when they reached the island) woke up, startled to where it's awoken. The lemur fusses and jumps off of Aang and runs off. Aang though knew that he couldn't just run off because he would get in trouble, and besides Aang knew that the lemur would be safe as long as it stayed out of trouble.
After reaching the top of the stairs, the gigantic doors opened as Jack knocked on the door. Walking down the corridors of the building had Katara scared. This just gives me the creeps. Though we do have to meet the mayor, whoever he or she is. And the sooner we get out of here, the sooner the goose bumps will disappear. Katara thought. Though elsewhere, the group is being spied on, by someone unexpecting... "Hm... that girl, she looks familiar.. like the one in my dreams.." The group stopped in front of a door that read "Mayor's door, do not disturb me when I am busy!" Jack knocked on the door, and an angry voice boomed in the speaker next to them, "WHAT? DIDN'T YOU READ THE SIGN YOU IMBECILE?"... (silence)... "Um sir, these are newcomers to the island... can we come in, or shall we come later? Or you something else?" Jack said, with a frightened tone in his voice, quavering, obviously because he feared his mayor. The three sensed this right away, and they too were instantly scared.
"Fine, come in." the mayor said. The door opened, and the four walked in. The mayor sat in his chair facing the opposite direction of Aang, Sokka, Katara and Jack. "Well? what do you want?" the mayor inquired. "Well" Sokka began, "On the sign it said to visit the town mayor when you first get here so... we did." The mayor spun around in his chair, to now face everyone. "Y-y-you're the girl from my dreams! It's really you!" The mayor got up... Katara was shocked to see who the mayor is.
"ZUKO? You're the mayor?" Sokka yelled.
"Well duh! Of course I am! didn't you notice the fire nation color? wow, you're even dumber than you look Sokky." Prince Zuko said.
"It's Sokk-KA! Not Sokk-KY! that's just plain stupid!" Sokka was all fummed and angry. Aang tried to calm him down but was to no avail. Prince Zuko took a step closer to the waterbender and he got as close as touching her cheek. "You... are coming with me. The other two buffoons can live elsewhere. Guards!" Five guards came to the room, and pulled or actually dragged Sokka and Aang out of the hall, and threw them outside. Though on the inside Katara was being walked into a bedroom, fully furnished.
"Whoa, that's big." Katara was amazed. "Why do you have me captive here? And what happened to my brother and Aang? And what dreams are you talking about?"
"Well you see I've been having these dreams and you were in them and my psychiatrist said that you might be able to help me decipher these dreams, and as for your brother and the Avatar, well..." Prince---or should I say Mayor--- Zuko chuckled as he paused, "I threw them out on the streets. And does that answer all of your questions?"
"NO! it doesn't!" Katara yelled.
(---meanwhile with Aang and Sokka—)
Aang and Sokka are confused on what to do so they got off the island and landed on another island that was nearby and deserted.
"Aang, what are we going to do? How could we let Prince Zuko kidnap Katara?"
"Sokka calm down, we'll get her back as soon as we get some rest. That'll help refresh our minds and I'm totally tired."
"Is that all you could think about? My sister is in trouble! Now, I'm gonna get her back if it's done with or without your help!" Sokka was angry once more, but this time he was furious because his only family member (that's with him right now, not counting his grandma back in their village) was kidnaped by some banished prince who now was a mayor.
"Maybe I should of listened to Katara when she said that we shouldn't of went to Baku Island." Aang said sadly and regretting of ever setting foot on Baku Island.
"Ya know what Aang, just let it go for now. You're right, we should get some sleep first and them we will be prepared tomorrow."
"Alright then Sokka, good night."
"Good night Aang."
Though unbeknownst to Aang and Sokka someone nearby was listening to their conversation.
