Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar. Sheesh, how many time do I gotta say it!
Wow, lot's of reviews!
ILuVeLeMrS!- Thanks for the compliment. Here's the next chapter.I hope you like it.
lensgirlfriend- It SOO is not a kids show, but that's what everyone I know over here says. So, I thought I'd put in a bit of the other perspective in here. And you're right, it is the best show ever!
sokka is my homeboy- I'm glad you like it. Here's the next chapter 2.
Katara water bender forever- Wow, long name! I like it. Avatar: TLA is great. I'm so glad you like my story, but sorry, I'm not allowed to talk to people over the computer that I don't know other than this way. Also, I don't have MSN Messanger. Sorry.
SeethingxShadows- Okaaaayyy... Thank you so much for finding that! Ugh, I'm a little stupid sometimes.My sis was distracting me at the time I wrote that. So, explanation of their names after the shout outs. Her closet is like a Vortex thingy, but you can't go into the past from her closet. Only the other way around.
READ:
Ok, like SeethingxShadows pointed out, I messed up on their names. Thank you again. I was distracted when I was writing this. Alex's real name is Alex. Plain and regular, but Abby's real name is Abitha. So thank you again for finding that mistake, and those are the real names there.
Also, if you want to check out a really good story, check out An American Firebender. It's great.
Chapter 2- Hello, I come in peace
I whimpered, stomping my feet on the carpeted floor, throwing a little fit. Then, I said softly, "Ok, don't panic Abby. The characters of Avatar are just on your floor!" I whimpered again, and then I had to calm myself. I turned on a lamp and dragged their crumpled forms out of my closet, and laid them down softly near my bed.
"Now what?" I asked myself when I heard a knocking at my door. I opened it to find Alex, half awake standing there, swaying from being in his state of mind.
He asked, "What just happened? I heard three loud thumps, and then I heard one more and I found a guy that looks a ton like Prince Zuko in my closet." He looked really confused right now.
"Yea, uh, Alex, uh, the characters of Avatar have now come through our closets just like those Vikings did a few years ago." I said, hoping he wouldn't scream like last time.
"Really?" He said excited, totally awake now.
"Yes, really, now I need you to help me get Zuko out of your closet." I said and pulled him away from my doorframe. With our strength combined, we were able to tote the unconscious Zuko to next toAlex's bed as well, and that is saying something, since the guy's a 16-year-old prince with a ton of muscle, and armor that alsoweighs aton. "Dead weight is not my field of paper flowers." I said after we had dragged him from the closet.
"Now what?" Alex asked.
I sighed, thinking. "I don't know. I'm making this up as I go, but I'll tell you now, we aren't going to get a ton of rest tonight." He looked like he was about to cry, but then I heard a "Owwww! Where am I?" coming from my room.
"Alex, I'll be right back!" I said and hurried off to my room before the owner of the voice could wake up Kathy and she get allticked at me.
When I got there, I found Katara getting up and looking around slowly. Then, she spotted me, frozen in my spot where I'd run in, biting my lip. "Who are you?" She asked.
"Abby Crenshaw." I said nervously. "Hold on a minute." She nodded and I ran out the door, down the stairs, and to the freezer. I got the biggest bowl I could find, and stuffed all the ice I could into the bowl. Next, I got another bowl, only smaller for Alex tending to Zuko. Then, I went to the linen closet on my way back up to my room and gotseveral towels. I was back in my room in a matter of minutes.
"Does your head hurt?" I asked. She nodded, and I filled one of the cloths with ice and handed it to her. Then, I helped her up onto my bed. "Stay here one more time." She nodded yet again, and put the ice to her head. I then bent down and filled the other bowl with ice and carried it and a towel to Alex's room. I found him in fetal position a few feet from Zuko, staring at him without moving.
"Alex, you do know he's unconscious and won't hurt you?" I asked, setting the bowl downon his bedsidetable.
"Yes, but he can get violent!" he whimpered. He'd seen the show a ton of times, just like I had.
"Yes. When he's awake. But he's not now. I have to go and tend to the gang, but if Zuko begins to stir, come and get me. But don't yell. We don't want to wake Kathy up." He nodded, his expression growing fearful when Kathy was mentioned. "It'll be okay." I said and left the room.
I walked down the hall to my room once again, and found that Aang was getting up. "Here." I made anotherice pack, and handed it to him. He accepted gratefully, but put it on his arm instead of his head.
"Now, who are you?" Katara turned to me.
"My name is Abitha Crenshaw, but if you want to get smacked, go ahead and call me that. If not, call me Abby." The two who were awake exchanged nervous glances. "I'm not the one you should be afraid of, that's my sister Kathy, who's totally gonna freak when she finds out that characters from a TV show popped through my closet!" I paused and smiled sheepishly. "Sorry."
Katara nodded. "But where are we? And what's that?" she pointed to the lamp I had turned on.
"That is a lamp. It takes electricity and turns it into light." That was the simplest explanation I could come up with.
Aang had been quiet until I said this. "Ooooh! Cool!" his eyes got all big and googly.
"Yea." I was unsure of what to do next, and then Sokka began to stir. "Well, hello Sleeping Beauty!" I said sarcastically, and went to get his ice pack.
He took it and eyed me suspiciously. "Who are you?" I groaned. This night was never going to end.
"I am Abby Crenshaw of the 21 century. I come in peace!" I held up my right hand and gave him the Alien Symbol."You three somehow landed yourselves through my closet which somehow leads to the past!" I finished. I wasn't even going into the fact that Zuko was here too. But, fate came a knocking.
"Abby! Zuko woke up!" Alex came running through my door, before Sokka could respond to my first comment, and ran out again.
I turned back to the gang who looked a cross between dumbstruck and horror stricken. "You stay here. I'll be right back. There's ice if you need it." and I scampered through my open door. I followed the hallway to Alex's room. I nearly ran into him too when I came through the doorframe. He was staring at Zuko without blinking, like he was seeing a ghost. "Whoa therebuckaroo!" I said as I sidestepped him and into the room. Zuko was trying to sit up but with no luck. I helped him up.
He looked into my eyes, and then twitched away from me. "Get away from me you peasant!" And I thought we'd actually shared something special when he looked into my eyes. I stood up aggravated and put my hands on my hips.
"Let's see you do it by yourself then," I said, watching him struggle up. Apparently, you were supposed to take your armor off first before you laid down. "Argh. This is useless." I then helped up a struggling Zuko.
"You have no right to touch me you worthless peasant!" he said angrily, finally standing, Alex still staring at him, now his mouth was slightly open.
"Is that all that your vocabulary consists of? 'Worthless peasant'?" he obviously wasn't too pleased with this.
"Why you wor-" he began but I cut him off.
"Worthless peasant?"
"You should-"
"Respect your superiors? Yea, heard it before buddy!" He looked like he was about to explode. "Look, we don't need any fights or yelling. If my sister catches me, I'll be dead. Does that mean anything to you?" He looked dead into my eyes like he was itching to hit me, but he held himself back and nodded. "Good. Now, I have to tell you something, but you have to promise not to say anything, or go berserk." He nodded again; obviously not pleased with the way this was going. "The Avatar's here."
"HERE! WHERE IS HE? I MUST-"
Alex and I clapped a hand over his mouth. "You promised." I stared directly in his eyes, and he relaxed his body.
"Don't touch me again." He said.
I shrugged my shoulders. "Whatever. Here, you want an ice pack?" I offered him one from the now melting ice, but it worked the same. He accepted and put it to his head. "Now, you two get acquainted, I've got to go check up on the gang. Alex, explain this world to him." I left the two alone, Zuko giving Alex a death glare, and Alex standing across from him smiling nervously. As I went down the hall, I passed our cat coming up the stairs to see what the commotion was about. I picked him up, not wanting to have Fried Cat for breakfast in the morning and made my way back to my room.
When I entered the doorway, I found Aang, Katara, and Sokka looking at all my 'high-tech' everyday stuff.
"Hey, what's this do?" Aang asked picking up and looking at my CD player.
I dropped my cat who scampered over to Katara. "Katara, Mr. Cookies, Mr. Cookies, Katara." She leaneddown from the lamp she was inspecting to pet Mr. Cookies. "Guys, please don't touch anything. I've got to get some rest for tomorrow at school. Here. Sleep on these." I rolled out my quilts from inside my trunk at the foot of my bed and handed them some pillows. "I've gotta go and tell Alex and Zuko to get some sleep too." They tensed up again. "Don't worry, everything's gonna be fine."
I once more made my way down the hallway towards Alex's room where Alex was standing in a corner, eyeingZuko who was checking out his GI-Joe. I sighed. "You boys get some sleep now, okay?" Zuko turned to me, fire burning in his eyes. I forgot he didn't like to be treated any less than he really was. "Oops, sorry Prince Zuko, but still, get some sleep?" I helped Alex roll out his sleeping bag and convince Zuko to sleep there. He wanted to get to sleep on the bed, where 'All royals slept'. And I reminded him that he was banished. He shut right up.
I finally was able to make it to my room, finding the gang asleep in their cot, and crawled into bed myself. I looked at my clock. It said, "11:59 pm".
"Oh, lord." I sighed, knowing about my test tomorrow in World Geography. I rolled onto my side and finally fell asleep.
I hope you liked it; please review!
