Enter: The World of Aang

Chapter 4: Secrets

I kissed him passionately. Me. Kissing Sokka. Okay… what am I doing?

"..." Sokka pulled away from me, blinking.

Of course... I'm such an idiot. He likes Suki. We stayed there for a while, not saying a word. Aang finally broke the silence.

"Is anyone gonna say something?" I looked over at him.

"You just did, silly," I said while smiling. Glancing down at my watch, I panicked. "Oh no… Do you know where we were when you first saw me?" I asked Aang.

"Yeah, why?" Aang asked back.

"I… have to go," I stated, looking around frantically. "Can you take me home, Aang?"

Aang looked somewhat disappointed and said, "Sure, when do you want to go?"

I was about to reply, but Sokka grabbed my wrist and distracted me. "Jennifer, wait."

"What?" I asked quietly, turning back to look at him. He quickly kissed my cheek.

"I… I just wanted to say... I'll miss you." He stared at me with sadness in his eyes.

"I'll miss you too," I sighed. After that, Aang and I got on Appa.

In the air

"Oh, Appa, I'm so confused..." I mainly said to myself, forgetting about Aang. All he had to say was awwhg. Typical Appa.

For the next few minutes, the ride was silent. I looked down and saw some ant people. They reminded me of Katara and Sokka. They wouldn't be following me, would they? I asked myself. I leaned forward to look down at them again, when I suddenly lost my balance fell forward. It felt like my clothes were going to rip off and my skin would peel. Katara looked up to see me falling. Sokka did too.

"Jennifer!" They all cried at once. I closed my eyes, not wanting to see what would happen next.

Later

I opened my eyes, only to be greeted by darkness, and noticed… I couldn't feel a thing. Am I dead..? "Hey! Is anyone there?" I choked out. "Hello? Is anybody there?" I managed to move my head around a little, and my eyes adjusted to the darkness. I saw a door and a window with shadows outside of it. "I know you're there!" I shouted. "Come here and help me right now!" I heard some cursing, then the doorknob began turning. Getting a little nervous, I gulped stayed quiet.

"Sheesh, you're very loud," the lady said. Her voice was as dull as a health video.

"No, I'm not?" I gave her a funny look. She glared at me, so I glared back.

"Hey, how is she doing?" Katara asked as she walked in.

"I can't--" The woman cut me off.

"Everything's fine," she smiled at Katara, only to turn sour once she faced back to me, "except for that mouth of hers." Aang walked in as soon as she finished.

"Nuh-uh!" I cried.

"Whose mouth did what?" The Airbender asked. Then he finally noticed me. "Jennifer, you're okay!"

"Yes, I am," I sighed. "But why can't I move? What's wrong with me?"

"Stupid child, you're paralyzed! But only for a few more minutes, so stop freaking out. Gosh, children these days…" The old lady shook her head and walked out.

Only Katara, Aang, and I were left in the room. But something was missing. More like someone.

"Where's Sokka?" I asked.
