Disown: we don't own avatar sniff but if we believe we can, maybe, some day…
Marie: Liz I don't think that's going to work
Liz; I know but maybe…
Marie: what ever…we also don't own any songs Liz sings in this chap and are not responsible for any craziness or insanity she might do
Liz: that's right I'm not even responsible for my own actions
Things to know: just to let all you Sokka lovers/fangirls out there. Please don't be jealous Liz DOES NOT love Sokka and he REALLY doesn't love her. Their just friends (some times) and THAT'S ALL! There isn't any romance in this story because there wasn't any period. The reason we're telling you this is cuz…
Liz: I don't know just so you don't start thing those sick thoughts!
Marie: ok I think they get it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Miss Marie? We are docking and the general Iroh wants you to join him"
Nello said peeking in. Marie looked up form a drawing she was doing in her little red book (Marie; see chapter 9 aka last chapter)
"ok I'll be right there," nodding the sailor left Marie. Quickly (Liz: OH MY GOSH alert the media!) Marie jumped out of her bed and began to change into something more then her work clothes (Marie: which were my old sailor outfit fixed up). Hesitantly she looked at her note book then shrugging she took it "never know when I'll need this." She muttered holding it to her chest as she walked out.
It didn't take Marie long to fine her favorite retired general (Marie: Yes by now Iroh and I are great friends, even if I till think he's a little strange) and a sour faced Zuko standing on deck waiting for her.
"About time" Zuko mumbled just loud enough for the blonde to hear. Marie chose to keep her mouth shut as the prince waked down the plank. Iroh gave her a warmer welcome then his nephew.
"I'm so glad you could join us my dear."
"I'm glad I could come."
-------------------------------------------------------
After one half an hour of shopping Marie came to the conclusion that Iroh was the WORST shopper in the world; once they had docked Zuko had taken off like they had the plague muttering something about having to meet some guy leaving Marie and Iroh alone.
They were just leaving a flute shop (Marie: which was better than the sewing shop, I see enough of those with my mom) when Iroh and Marie saw Zuko taking to an elder man. Smiling Iroh started to walked over to his beloved nephew.
"Don't worry we'll just put a few cases of these around where the avatar had been spotted and he wont know what hit him." Marie caught the man saying as they came within ear shot. Slowly Marie raised an eyebrow glancing over at the prince who was holding a bottle of some clear liquid.
"What is that all about?" she wondered as Zuko nodded and handed the man some money.
"It's time to get back to the ship" Zuko said turning to his uncle "We have to get ready to catch the Avatar tomorrow."
---------------------------
"I'm going for a walk." Liz said suddenly jumping up
"Ok." Katara said glancing up from a water bending scroll that she and Aang were reading.
"Just don't go too far you might get lost."
"Ok sock."
"Then again…" Sokka mutter going back to polishing his boomerang.
Liz's "walk" was something like this skip, stop, run, stop, walk wile looking up at the sky, stop when walking into a tree, skip, ext. She was still doing this pattern (L: well I did stop walking with my head up after running in to 3 trees and a thorn bush) when she came to a stream.
"How am I going to cross you?" She asked the stream pausing to look around. Then She saw a fallen tree "Perfect." She stepped gingerly on the log then after seeing that it was safe. Seeing that it was, she got on and began to cross singing 'average girl'.
"So what I'm not your average girl, I don't meet the standers of this worl…" she stopped when she saw what was in front of her. "Wow that has got to be the BIGIST APPLE TREE IN THE WORLD!" Liz said flinging her hands in the air dramatically then began to clime still singing the random song that randomly popped into her head.
So what I'm not your average girl
I don't meet the standers of this world
Chasing after boys is not my thing
See I'm waiting for a wedding ring
No more dating
I'm just waiting
Like sleeping beauty
My prince will come for me!
No more dating
I'm just waiting
Cuz god is writing
my love story!
Suddenly Liz stopped "Oooookkk where did THAT come from?" then she remembered Sokka saying that she wasn't you Average girl that morning pretty much giving her the song got the whole day
"Oh well at least it's not to annoying"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Liz had been gone for about an hour when the other's started to get worried. Well Sokka didn't realize how long it was until the others mentioned it he was happy for the peace and quite (L: isn't he so sweet). "Maybe we should go look for her." Katara said standing up.
"Maybe we shouldn't."
"Sokka!"
"Why don't we split up, she couldn't have gone far."
"Great idea Aang"
"But she could be really far with all that energy."
But Katara wasn't listening to her complaining brother. "I'll take that way Aang you take that way and Sokka you go over there."
Sokka didn't really think that Liz had gone this way so he just walked enjoying the scenery. He stopped at a river then looked for a way to cross. That's when he saw the black haired girl trying to balance across a fallen log singing some song he had never herd before. He smiled, an idea forming, "It's pay back time."
"Hey." Liz looked up
"Sokka! HI!"
"Whatcha doing?" Liz raised her eyebrow at this stupid question.
"Uh trying to cross…Duh"
"Can you swim?" Liz stopped and looked up realizing where he was getting at
"Sokka please don't," Sokka had his foot on the log looking like he was ready to push it over.
"Why not?"
She looked at the black mess flowing under her "this water, it's…gross."
"Well…" Sokka started to take his foot off the log then he saw that Liz had her hands behind her back "what's that?"
Liz looked behind her "what's what?"
Sokka narrowed his eyes "what do you have behind your back?" Liz's eyes got big
"Nothing" she squeaked
"Oh I bet! Well you're not fooling me that easily." With a hard shove of his foot the log shook
"Sokka wait! Ahhhhhhh!" Liz lost her balance and fell off the log into the deep black water.
First thing that came to mind was to emerge but all of a sudden she realized she didn't need air! She could breathe under water! "Oh Sokka will pay." She thought with an impish grin.
Speaking of the Sock (Sokka: HEY!) he was doing a victory dance on shore (Marie: typical Sokka) "oh yah I got you good this time Liz! Who's laughing now! " Sokka stopped dancing to look at the water. Shouldn't she have emerged by now? Sokka knelt down by the river's edge "um Liz you can come out now." Nothing happened.
"Liz?" nothing, "Oh no… LIZ!" there wasn't as much as a bubble. With out a moments hesitation Sokka jumped in to save the girl. But the water was so black that he couldn't see a thing.
After a few minutes Sokka had to get some air. Busting to the service he tired to part the water franticly "please don't drown Liz I'm really sorry."
"I forgive you."
Sokka spun around to see a socked 16 year old girl with a triumphant smile "Liz… but… I… you… how?"
"Want some help?" Sokka took her out stretched hand and climbed onto the bank.
"I'm sorry I put that crab in your sleeping mat." Liz said her caramel eye's looking right into Sokka's blue ones
"It's ok but Liz…"
"Yes?"
"Um…what did you have behind your back?"
Liz smiled and handed Sokka a bright red Apple. "I was going to surprise you because I was sorry for bothering you so much." Sokka just looked at the apple then he looked at Liz, who a big I'm really sorry smile on her face.
"We better get back the others are looking for you."
"Ok" Liz stood up "then can I show all of you the neat apple tree I found?"
------
That night the kids have a feast of nuts and apples. After that they just sat around the fire thinking there own thoughts until Liz broke the silence "all rightly peeps I'm off to take a nappy poo in beddy bye land." With this she walked over to her mat and went to sleep.
After a few minuets Sokka spoke "she's as odd as her name."
"I like her" Aang said smiling Katara just yawned
"Me to Aang, Good night everyone."
And with that everyone went to sleep thinking there own thoughts.
