"The earth nation guards are standing there, like dead peacocks;How pathetic." Kyo whispered from the front of the ship staring through his telescope. "They don't seem to have very good guards do they?"

"You couldn't really expect much out of their breed, all they can do is make a sand castle."

"Yeah I guess that you're right. This mission shouldn't be a problem at all." Kyo brushed his messy black hair out of his face, "I just hope that they don't expect me to bend."

"Then just say you can't, you idiot." Commander Akito muttered, "It shouldn't be that difficult for you to figure that out."

Kyo scowled and continued to search, "Do I need to swim to get there?"

"You will if you get smart with me." Akito smacked him in the back of the head, "Little closer!" He instructed the sailor driving the boat. He then turned back to Kyo, "Alright. You are going to be going through the north wall, once there, you will need to hide and shoot these darts at the near guards. They have a strong dose of sleeping potion from a fire nation brewer, do you understand me?"

"Yes sir." He said pocketing the darts, "Once there?"

"You will take a vacant spot in the nearest inn. And while you are on the island, I want you to report anything and everything you find important. Including location, information on the brigades and armadas, and also any slight details including food resources, weapons, and reinforcements, do you understand me?"

"Yes sir." Kyo said in a deep bow, "I understand it all completely."

"You will depart once you have received the right clothing," He said gesturing to the closet, "Slip into them, don't let them see your eyes," seeing that Kyo's eyes had a faint red tint of a fire bender."
"But what if someone sees?"

"You will not let anyone see them!" He said angrily, getting ready to strike him, "You will keep undercover; whether you like it or not."

"Yes sir…" He said with a transparent tone, "I will not let a soul lay eye onto mine."

"Good. Go get dressed now." Commander Akito shoved Kyo to the door leading to his cabin, "They are sitting on the bed."

"Yes sir." He replied once again very plainly.

Kyo; a sixteen year old fire bender of high standards, was asked(commanded) to act as a earth bender resident, to research the qualities of the nations community, and find any information on weaknesses, so as to plan the fire nation's next attack.

Kyo walked over to his bed slouching as he grabbed the earth bender garb from his cot, slipping off his upper robe he grabbed the shirt and slipped it over his head, when making his hair messier than it had already been.

While trying to flatten his hair, he began to wonder; What if I fail? What if I am discovered? The thought of failing his task made him shudder, surely a loss would mean a beating… He had already had many scars from previous whippings he had taken while in fire nation training, but for something this big, it could possibly mean death. I have to succeed. Nothing will stand in my way! He had gotten so rough with thought, that he ripped his sleeve as he had tried to slip his head through it on accident. Cursing loudly he tried to mend the sleeve, "Stupid clothes, they need to be sturdier," Though he already knew that it was his fault.

He slipped on the murky dirt brown leggings and tried to raise his shoulder slightly so that the sleeve wouldn't droop down seeing that it was still ripped.

He walked out onto the ship dock to see that Akito was still patrolling the guard's actions. "I'm ready to go sir." He said still trying to lift his shoulders.

Akito turned and he looked slightly taken back, a frown slapped over his face.

"What's wrong sir?" Kyo asked raising an eyebrow.

"Well there was a slight set back; it seems that only adults over eighteen can stay in the Inn."

"Well that's thick. Why don't you just attack and force them?"

"Because we don't have any arrangements for reinforcements, and that stupid Katara girl had given them some some-what encouragement, they aren't frightened to fight anymore. Pride can sometimes be more powerful than arrows…"

"I see, so how are the arrangements going to be pressed on?"

"You will be associated into boarding school."

"Well that should- BOARDING SCHOOL!"

Akito smacked him smartly across the face, "Yes – boarding school. And if you get snappy with me, we will throw you off the boat and you will get run over with it!"

Kyo rubbed his face, "Yes sir… Sorry sir." He muttered sourly.

"We have already assigned you to attend."

"I understand sir. Does that mean that I am going to have to learn while I am there?"

"To not participate will raise suspicions. Already coming out of nowhere is bad enough." He roughly patted him on the back, "You will go there and act as a regular student, you will communicate with as many students as you can to achieve the mission's goal, do you understand me?"

"Yes sir."

"Very well, take this." He handed him a ripped piece of paper with an address written on it, "This is the address of the school."

The boat soon reached the opposite of the island, where a shallow peninsula poked out about half a mile from the main part of the island where everyone lived.

"There are guards at the wall when you reach there, shoot the darts and then reach the school. They will be expecting your arrival."

Kyo nodded, "Well I'm out." He waited for the bride to sprout from the ship, slinging his messenger bag over his shoulder; he walked down to the small sprouting peninsula, walking off to the wall.

When he reached the outside of the wall, he noticed that there were indeed two guards standing on either end, watching for visitors and intruders.

He grabbed the pocketed darts and then started to load one into his launcher. He then placed an end to his lips, aiming for a precise spot in the guard's neck, right below the helmet. He blew a puff of air and shot the dart, he had shot with great speed and swift actions. The guard started to sway from the sleeping dose and soon collapsed onto the floor asleep.

The opposite guard looked over and leaned down to examine the guard, but while there, Kyo shot the guard in the shin; it made the guard's leg numb, and perhaps a bit woozy, but had nowhere close to as much effect as it had on the opposite guard. The guard collapsed to the floor on his knees, trying desperately to get back to his feet.

Kyo walked out of his covering and smirked to the guard, "Well you have yourself in a bit of a problem don't you."

"Help me please." The guard said in a helpless tone.

"Okay, I'll ease the pain." He raised a hand which went on fire; the guard gasped and watched the flame dance. "Sweet dreams." Kyo said as he shot the flame. And now to guard fell to the ground, helpless and motionless, never to see that bright flame again.

Kyo took no care to the guard's death, but then did the same to the sleeping guard. He dragged the two guards to the beach and pondered how he would get rid of them. He simply dropped them to the where the ocean could sweep them away. He walked off.

He walked back to the wall and wondered how he would get past, "Darn…" He thought for a moment, "Ah." He saw a small ladder leading to the guard post, "Surprising that those stupid guards didn't notice a thing. Rest in peace you idiot." He shot the dart at the watch guard, he collapsed from his post. Kyo then climbed to the top of the post and pressed the button that opened the guard door.

The door collapsed down and slammed in a dusty heap. "Okay," He jumped down from the guard tower and walked into the small earth kingdom, "Now where's this stupid school and how'll I see it in the dark?"

Well, the first chapter has been put up finally! I know that it is really boring – but once I get the next chapter up with the other characters, It'll get good – I swear!
