CH2- The Stuff

The sky was beginning to turn pink as the sun set slowly. The view was perfect. Where water meets the sky. I just love watching the sunset. And sunrise too, come to think of it. The sky then became orange and the edges of the sun turned slightly red giving this huge yellow fireball a nice little color contrast. Sunset (and sunrise) hypnotize me in a weird sort of way. I don't mind it though. It's just one of those things. You know? One of those things? No. You don't know. Ah, well. Didn't 'spect you to anyway. After zoning out for a little bit I noticed Aang and Katara sitting together. Eew. They do not belong together. It's just so eew. She's ya know 14 and he's- he's 12 and- and bald! C'mon! I tried not to gag as they moved closer. Blegh. I'm definitely gonna lose my Oreo's if I don't stop this madness. It's just not right! They moved closer and I knew that I'd see my Oreo's again. I have to say that I didn't want to see the creamy cream filling residing between two partially digested crunchy chocolate cookies! And the cream partially digested too! I don't wanna go there. Seriously.

Normally I'm not the kind of person that will ruin these "precious moments," but this was were I had to draw the line!

"C'mon!" I shouted. "I don't want to see my Oreo's again! And I like my hat and don't want to ruin it!"

I probably shouldn't have done that, but I still have friends back home. Who also dislike it. One in particular. This shows how loyal I am to my friends so if you're not happy then I wasted my time because I would have kept quiet but you just had to come to mind. So I ruined their moment for you.

I put my head back against the side of the saddle and went to sleep.

DA-DA-DA-DA-DA... NITE TIME COMES AND PASSES BY... ALL IS WELL AND NO ONE DIES (sorry had to rhyme) ... UUUUHHHHH... INTERMISSION IS FUN TO MESS WITH... AS I STUFF MY FACE WITH CHIPS AHOY TODAY!

When I woke up, I didn't open my eyes immediately just incase the whole Avatar thing had been a dream. I opened my eyes. Darn. I'm still here. There's nothing wrong with this place, it's just that it's a real problem when you wake up in the sky and you really need to go to the bathroom. What are you supposed to do anyway? You tell me. Sitting on the edge of the saddle and staring at the water below does not help. It makes it worse.

After sitting there for a while I got bored and pulled out my cell phone. I held down speed dial and waited for the phone to ring. Nothing happened. My phone felt harder than usual. I looked at it to see that I was holding a rock. A rock. Not a cell phone but a rock. No form of communication whatsoever!

"I am going to die out here." I said as I threw the rock across the saddle. "Yeah, Cingu-bould-ar phone service works like a charm. I'm cut off from technology for who-knows-how-long."

"If it makes you feel any better," Katara said. "We'll be landing on an island shortly."

"How long is shortly?"

"About three hours."

"I'M GONNA DIE!"

I began to play with my hair as I do when I'm bored. After this gets tiresome I get tired myself.

"I'm so sleepy," I muttered to no one in particular.

"Sleepy?" Sokka asked. "You slept longer than any of us!"

"Yeah so? When I'm bored I get tired and I am so frikin bored!"

"You're bored?"

"Yeah! My cell phone is a rock. There is no internet. I'm up in the air over water and I really gotta go to the bathroom. And flying over water does not help!"

They ignored me for a while which was fine with me. I could always just sleep until we got there. I was on my way to dreamland when,

"We're almost there!" Katara said eagerly looking over the saddle's edge.

"That's what you said an hour ago!" I said. I know I sound pissed, but that happens when I get bored. Not my fault.

"I'm serious this time!" Katara said. "You can see the island."

She was right. I could see it.

"Fine you win," I said laying back against the saddle. "Just wake me when we get there."

I closed my eyes and I swear the moment I did Aang's voice shouted,

"We're here!"

Appa landed and I hopped off the saddle.

"Well this looks promising," I said gesturing towards the small village just ahead. The streets were muddy and lined with small huts. It looked deserted.

"Are you sure this is the right place?" I asked. "I could have sworn that I saw a tumbleweed go by."

"What are you looking at me for?" Sokka asked. "Aang's our 'master navigator!'"

"Who said I was asking you? You're obviously not smart enough to locate a place like this. Actually any place, but still..."

It was a mess. Trash was everywhere and not a person in sight.

"Hello?" Aang called out as he began to walk the muddy streets. "Anyone here?"

"It looks deserted," Katara said. "As if the people here fled."

"I don't blame them," I said. "This place is a dump-" I held my nose-"And it smells too!"

"Let's keep looking," Katara said. "You never know. Maybe there's someone here."

"Yeah," I said. "And maybe I'll find a bathroom."

We continued on through the street until we reached a dead end. The sight at the end was unbelievable.

"I don't believe it," I said putting my hand to my mouth.

Author's Note- okay there's chapter two. What will happen?
