"Sydney! Syd! Wake up!" Darrin was shaking me violently. "Dar, what are you trying to do, make me have convulsions?" I grumbled, sitting up. Darrin shook his head."I followed Sokka when he went to spy on Jet. Jet found him out and had two of his friends take him somewhere!" I leaped to my feet. "Which two?"
"The big fat dude and a little shrimpy kid."
"Uh-oh...I just remembered." Darrin frowned. "What?" "Well, Jet hates firebenders, right? So in this episode, he is going to flood the villiage down there to get rid of the fire nation camp close by!" I gasped. "And we have to find Katara and Aang!" "Why? They think Jet's a god or something, why would they listen to us?" Leave it to Darrin not to make anything easy. "Because we're making them listen," I replied. "Now are you with me or not?" Darrin sighed. "I'm with you," he said, sounding about as convinced as asnake using a pogo stick.
We found Katara and Aang with Jet near some vents by the river. "See, Jet's going to trick them into helping him," I told Darrin. "Then get down there and stop them," he answered. "I'll find Sokka." I raised my fist and touched Dar's fist. "Okay, let's do this." For lack of better hiding places, I jumped into a small, itchy bush close to where Katara stood. When Jet left, I gave her skirt a tug. "Katara, down here." She knelt down, looking at me like I was crazy.
"Katara, Jet's going to blow the dam and flood the villiage by the river."
"No, he's going to wipe out the firebenders."
"He's a bad apple, Katara. Stop steaming the vents. He's just trying to keep you out of the way."
"That's not true!"
"Who are you going to believe, a guy you met a day ago or a girl from the future who has actually seen what's going to happen 5 times?"
I supposed this was a difficult descision for Katara. Poor thing, I hated breaking her heart like that, but it had to be done. But all of a sudden I found myself hanging from something by my left arm, and I twisted around to look.
"Oh, snap."
It wasn't a thing that had my arm, it was Jet! "PUT ME DOWN!" I yelled, kicking out behind me. "I guess you've told them about my plan, hunh?" he said as I struggled and bit. "Leave her alone!" Aang was by my side in an instant. "This is wrong, Jet!" (No kidding.) "I want you to understand me Katara; I thought your brother would understand." Katara was angry now. "Where's Sokka?"
Ah...my favorite part. I love the cliffies. Don't worry, Darrin's POV will come soon. But will Syd get away from Jet? Hmmm?
