I DON'T own Avatar...
Maybe I LIKE Singing To Myself
With my eyes widened and my heart pounding, I silently walked back over to the temple wall and leaned against it. Slowly sliding down, I soon found myself back in a sitting position.
"How on EARTH did I get here?" I asked myself. With no reply, I continued to sit silently and observe my newly found surroundings.
Then…a song suddenly came to my mind…
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind…
I continued to sing softly so only I could hear…
Or so I thought…
I was completely unaware I was currently being watched…
And I know I'm in your prayers
'Cause I'm already there…
Suddenly I heard a branch break and I practically jumped a foot in the air. As I looked around, I heard the continuous sounds of THUD, "OW!", THUD, "OW!"
Then, from one of the higher trees near me, I saw someone fall to the ground.
As I got up and ran over to him yelling "Oh my god! Are you ok?", I noticed that the boy was wearing mostly blue and looked about my age.
"I'm…fine…" he mumbled as I got closer. I tried to sustain myself from giggling as I saw the boomerang that was slung over his shoulder.
"What the heck were you doing in that tree?" I asked.
"I was…looking for food!" I could tell he was lying.
"You were spying on my, weren't you?"
"No!"
I stared at him with one eyebrow cocked up.
"…FINE! Yes, I was…" he said sternly, "but only because I thought you were fire nation!"
I twirled around with my arms sticking out.
I asked him, "Do I LOOK like I'm in the fire nation? If I was, I would be able to shoot FIRE from my HANDS! SEE?"
But instead of nothing coming from my hands like I expected, a jet of wind shot out and smacked the boy in the face and knocked him back to the ground.
"OOOWWWWYYYYY!" he cried.
Again, I rushed up to him and yelled, "Oh my god, are you ok?"
"Fine…"
As I stood beside him, I suddenly remembered something.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so rude", I stuttered as I reached out my hand to pull him up, "I'm Emily."
"Sokka", he said as he took my hand so I could pull him to his feet.
I stared at my hand in amazement. Flicking my hand again, I managed to send another jet of wind out of my hand. I was airbending…
I turned back to Sokka, "I thought the Avatar was the only airbender left…"
"So did I…", he replied cautiously.
"You know him?" I was trying to play along like I had no clue what had happened from watching the show.
"Yeah, I know him…I'm actually traveling with him and my sister, Katara. You're welcome to come along with us…seeing you're an airbender and all that", he asked.
"Sure! I'd love to!"
"Ok, with that settled, we now need to go…", he spun around in all directions, "uh…".
"What do your instincts tell you?" I asked jokingly, but he wasn't paying attention. He suddenly threw his boomerang high in the air past the tree tops so the sun hit it. Obviously, he was making a signal for the others. And, sure enough, a couple seconds later a huge cloud of dust formed to our left.
"That way…" he said sheepishly as the boomerang came down and hit the forest ground.

It seemed like we had been walking silently for hours, till Sokka spoke up.
"Do you always sing to yourself like that?" he asked almost a little too quickly.
"Only when I have a song stuck in my head…but normally nobody watches me while I sing", I said coldly.
He looked at me with the words I APOLOGIZE written all over his face so I smiled and continued walking.
Sokka replied, "Well, do you usually sing about stuff that is related to something or is it just random". Now I could tell he was just toying with me.
"Random. Now stop talking about my singing. You're being nosy." With that, I gently poked him in the nose and started running forward.
"Race ya there!"
-Comic Relief-
(i thought i'd start to spice things up a bit...everyone loves a good blooper...hehe)
Me: Do I LOOK like I'm in the fire nation? If I was, I would be able to shoot FIRE from my HANDS! SEE?
Instead of a whooshing of air coming from my hands, fire shoots out.
Sokka: AAHHHHHHH! You ARE a Fire Bender!
Me: Nooo, I did NOT mean to do that!
Sokka (not paying attention to what im saying): WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY FOR YOURSELF!
Me: uh...I hate mondays?
(oh, and I don't own Garfield where the I Hate Mondays comes from for those who don't know >.> )
