I started to climb onto Appa, but I looked back at Jet. I probably shouldn't have. "Guys, we can't just leave him here," I said. "Oh, yes we can!" Sokka didn't even look behind him. "All right...I guess." I jumped onto Appa - and had to grab my wrist to keep from slapping myself. Was I willing to help the guy who just tried to kill off an entire villiage! We needed to get homepronto, before I had anymore heinous notions. "Darrin, I'm starting to fall for Jet." He looked at me as if I'd suggested he jump into a cloud with an anvil on his back. "Well, you can forget that. He likes Katara." "Can we just not analyze this?" I was starting to feel jumpy again.
"I'm not analyzing, that's the truth!"
"The truth stinks!"
"Then I guess you like him then."
"I DO NOT!"
"What are you two fighting about?" Katara swung around to stare at us. "Uh, nothing. Nothing at all." Darrin acted like the whole thing never happened. "Well, take a look down there." Katara pointed below Appa. I could see a faint silver light spiraling in on itself. "Aang, Dar and I need to go there," I said. I had a feeling that the light was our way home. And I was right! We landed a few feet from the shimmering portal. "This is it. We have to get back home now." I looked back at Aang, Katara, and Sokka. "Will you come back?" Aang looked sad, his face in a little pout. "We might! Don't worry; you'll see us again." Darrin smiled and hugged Aang. "Bye Katara and Sokka." I waved to them. "Take care!" Katara waved back. We started to hop into the portal when Katara spoke up.
"Syd?"
"Yeah?"
"Thanks."
I smiled warmly. "Anytime." And Darrin and I jumped in the portal.
Blinding light!
SEARING HEAT!
Bump.
We found ourselves on the floor in front of the very television we'd been sucked into. "That was INTENSE!" Darrin stood and gave me a high-five. "It feels so good to be home!" I added. Then we looked at each other and grinned.
"There's no place like home..."
"There's no place like home..."
About three or four monthslater, Jon and Andy, our other two friends, came with us to Darrin's house to watch the Avatar Season Finale. But there was a special report about the show first. The announcer seemed shaken as she spoke:
"Avatar: The Last Airbender is a popular show for kids of all ages. However, one of the episodes changed completely and strangely, adding two teens, Sydney and Darrin,in the midst of the episode, "Jet."
And then there were several screenshots ofthat episode, andyou will never guess who was in it!
"Oh, my gosh, that's US!" Darrin whooped. I stood up and whooped, too. "Why are you whooping?"asked Jon. "Those kids don't look like you!" And Darrin and I just smiled at each other, because we knew what had really happened.
