Sokka's Confession
Prompt # 22 – Hands

If there's anything I can't stand in the world, it' those Firebenders. Really, they think they can do whatever the heck they want. I know Katara wants me to be serious here, but come one, she has to be kidding. Then again, that slap in the head I received earlier today was not a joke. That really hurt.

So, I guess she wants me write about my first experience with Zuko and when I thought they'd be more than just friends…not that I believed we'd be friends with him anyway. To tell you the truth, the thought still scares me, but nonetheless I love my sister and if this is what she wants me to do, then, I'll do it. Damn those Fire Nation.

You know, my memory would be much better if my sister and I hadn't been chased by Jun, threatened by Zuko (again), and then be paralyzed all the way through. But no, we always had the bad luck. But I guess you see where I'm coming from. The first time I realized Zuko and his "feelings" and what not, was when we were at the abbey.

I had become angry with Aang for hiding the map to our father and yadda, yadda, yadda…to make a long story short, I was pissed off and decided to search for my father instead. Then I had the usual flashback and had a change of heart…yeah, you get where I'm going.

Heading back towards the abbey, we just so happened to run into Zuko and this bounty hunter named Jun. She mocked Zuko, saying that Katara was his girlfriend and that she was "too pretty" for him…I know I'm not the only one who saw this, but he became red. He was embarrassed and the thought of my sister being with him raced through his mind. Trust me, I'm a boy and I know these things. That is why he ignored the inevitable and went straight to the "where's the Avatar?" mode. The weird thing is, is that he wasn't even forceful on us. Usually he says that phrase in such a demanding tone that it scares the wits out of you. As much as I hate to admit it, he didn't sound like that at all. He was caught off guard…that dirty bastard.

Anyway, we tried to run away but that of course failed when that Shirshu attacked us with its disgusting tongue and became paralyzed. Yeah, that's right, paralyzed.

Here's the part where I started to get more annoyed with that Prince. We had arrived in the village and we were about to fall off, but I saw him. I saw Zuko put his dirty hands on my sister…curse those gods. Why did this happen to me? He even looked back to see if she was alright and he smiled. Yeah, smiled; is that a rarity or what? His foul Fire Nation hands touched my sister. But in the end, as much as I hate to admit this as well…he was only trying to protect her.


Oathkeeper: I'm leaving for Itlay this coming Saturday so I'll try and write as many drabbles and a new chapter to my other fanfiction before I leave...so be on the look out!
