Item:Fortune

Pairing: Kyalin

Prompt by: TheGreatUniter

"Oh come on Lin, it will be fun."

The young metalbender tried desperately to go in any other direction than the one with the creepy tent containing some crazy old hag. "Kya, I'm not spending good money on some nut claiming to see people's future."

"You need to open your eyes Lin. Remember the story of how my parents saw a fortuneteller?"

"Yeah, she predicted that the volcano wouldn't erupt but uncle Sokka proved her wrong. It worked out real well."

"For me?"

Lin grimaced as Kya looked to her with pleading puppy dog eyes. "Damnit. Fine. Let's get this over and done with." The two women entered the dark tent that had a thin layer of smoke in the air. "Is that lillyweed?"

"Come closer children, let your future be revealed." The two lovers neared a woman who was probably thankful it was low lighting in the tent. Warts spotted her face, she had five eyelashes on each eyelid, she barely had any lips, and her pale skin was hanging loose from her skeleton. "I am miss Wu two. What would you like to know?"

Kya sat down, dragging Lin with her, and leaned forward onto the table, home to a crystal ball. "I would like to know about my future with my girlfriend. Will we have children? Will we get married? Will we travel? I want to know everything."

"Lean close and gaze into the crystal ball." The object turned into a navy blue, with flecks of bright blue. "You, Kya, have a kind heart, the blue flecks is the humour and good times you will have in your future, they are small but grand. You will be compassionate and patient as you wait for your love to come to you."

A frown crossed Kya's face at the information. "But I'm already with the one I love."

"Yes, but you will loose her for a long time." The crystal ball turned black, no light piercing through. "Though I'm sure you, Lin, are a good person, the ball reveals that you will have a harsh life, filled with betrayal, hurt, loneliness and you will never be able to trust anyone in the future."

The metalbender's eyes narrowed and she moved in closer to look the old woman in the eyes. "What will happen in my life that will cause my heart to become so cold?"

"A family member will hurt you physically. He or she will scar you, causing you to lash out at anyone trying to help. A loved one will leave you, another will die, causing you to turn in on yourself. Your loved one will feel trapped and leave to find themselves. Your trust will never be the same. It will take Kya trying to get you to open up over numerous years, before you are willing to trust again."

A growl escaped Lin's lips as she reached into her pocket to dump money on the table and storm out, leaving Kya to quickly follow.

Lin sat in bed, eyes watering as the thoughts that eventuated from seeing the fortuneteller formed in her mind. Kya came into the bedroom, drying her hair with her bending, before slinking into bed and cuddling up to her girlfriend, who was unusually stiff. "Hey, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm uh, I'm fine."

Kya looked up to see a tear escape Lin's eye. "Hey, are you okay?"

"No." She wrapped her arms around the waterbender and pulled her in close. "I don't want to loose you. I love you too much to let you go."

"Oh Lin, you'll never loose me. If you are worried that the fortuneteller was correct in her prediction, then know that you can change your future for the better."

Lin nodded her head and shuffled down in the bed, bringing Kya with her. "Promise you won't give up on me so easy."

Kya reached up and cupped Lin's smooth cheek in her hand. "You will never loose me. If the future comes true, just know all you have to do is call and I'll be there."

"Thank you. I love you."

"I love you too."

"Hey Kya?"

"Yeah?"

"How did she know our names?"

"Magic."
