Katara stared at Aang intently, then looked at the ground. With a sigh, she began to pack cloths and the two sleeping bags. Then, rubbing her hands together, she wiped her forehead and sat on the ground with a deep sigh. "Finished at last."
Then she yelled outside to Sokka. He was finished with his plans, and had them written down on a scroll. "HEY SOKKA! GET IN HERE! TIME TO GO!" Sokka turned to look toward the doorway, and raised an eyebrow. But, picking up the scroll he headed inside.
Kyoto was in front of the house, absorbed in her own thoughts. Sokka put his scroll with the suppiles then headed outside and sat next to Kyoto. She looked away, avoiding eye contact. "Well…you better be going…" He touched his right shoulder and looked at the ground. "Yeah…I guess."
Aang and Katara walked outside, Katara holding the ceramic pot. Aang was looking fairly anxious as he jumped on Appa quickly. Katara was determined to leave, and smiled at her brother. "Come on Sokka, let's put your plan into action. It was so nice to meet you , Kyoto." Sokka nodded, almost sadly. Then he climbed onto of Appa, but before Aang could call out "Yip Yip!" Sokka hesitated. "Wait! Kyoto…would you bring us the honor of coming with us?"
Kyoto looked up at Sokka in disbelief. Unsure he really said it. "I..I…I would love to! Thought you'd never ask!" she said with an awkward smile. "Nothing better to do." She said with a nervous laugh.
Katara and Aang looked at Sokka, unsure why he wanted her there. He hardly knew her..and what would help would she be? Although, when you think about it, it was odvious. Did he care for her so soon?
She climbed onto Appa, a grin on her face, blushing. She was so relieved he asked at last. It's what she wanted all along, you could say. As Aang signaled Appa, Katara next to him, Sokka made a quick gesture andKyoto sat next to him blushing furiously. She was loving it, yet it was so strange at the same time. A sense of belonging, acceptance at last.
He almost looked like he would put his arm around her, but only the authoress knows why he held back. They were on their way.
What did you think? Not too bad, I hope. My mind has been elsewhere. Could you please have some reviews? I have to admit I'm missing them.
