Hi! Haha, I'm updating, Haha! Okay…just read the chapter.
NOTE: Takes place during Book 1, in case something about this chapter confuses you
Chapter 9- Treachery
"You're a spy for the Fire Nation!" Aang yelled. Mick looked at him. His blue eyes were shining, his brown hair blew in the soft wind. He didn't answer.
"Why Mick?" Katara asked, "Why would you do such a thing?"
"They threatened me!" he cried, "They threatened me, my sister, the whole village! They threaten to kill us! This is my family Katara, you don't understand! None of you do! I did what I had to so they wouldn't kill us! They knew the Avatar was going to the North Pole, they thought maybe he'd pass here along the way! So I…I did the only logical thing. I offered to look out for you, and to report if you came through here. It was the only way, they would have killed us-"
"So you became a traitor!" Sokka yelled.
"Who did I betray?"
"How about the whole world?" Aang said angrily, "You were going to hand the world's only hope for survival over the Fire Nation, and do you know what they would have done? They would have waited for the comet, then destroyed me because I know longer threatened them. Then the world would be doomed! And you'd have died anyway!"
Mick's eyes were filled with tears. Sokka and Katara looked at each other, shock in their eyes. They'd never heard Aang talk like that before. They'd never seen him this mad.
"D-Does it matter?" Mick finally managed to say, "They didn't get you right? They just got Kosho-"
"Just?" Sokka piped up, " Just? She's our friend, and you're making her sound unimportant or whatever! That isn't right! No matter what happened, what you did was wrong!"
"You don't understand!" Mick yelled, any trace of sadness gone; he was angry, "When this war is over, you have a home to go to. You have people who care about you, and a village that still exist, even if only just. What do I have? I have this. A few Elders, my sister, and other women. My mother is dead, my father is dead, I have nothing! My mother died during the siege, my father died in battle, all I have now is what you see! All I wanted was to keep it! I have nothing! Nothing!"
"That doesn't matter!" Sokka yelled, "Aang doesn't have much either, all he has is us and Kosho, and you don't see him turning into a spy for the Fire Nation, do you? You had a choice, You could have fought back-"
"How!" Mick cried, "How could I have fought back Sokka? I'm just a eight-year-old kid, I have a few Earthbending skills, but not enough to fight, all the men are either at war or dead, and none of the women or Elders are Earthbenders. So tell me Sokka, how was I suppose to fight back?"
"You don't need to be a Bender to fight", Aang said, "You could have found other ways. But you took the easy way out. You decided to turn on everyone. That was your choice. Now you must face the consequences"
Aang- It was short.
I know, I know
Aang- It was very short
Don't make me tie you back up! Hem, hem, anyway, I know Aang was a little OOC in the story, but I thought it was pretty good. Anyway, review
