Getting Started

Sorry for not updating in forever, but my computer has been broken for a long time so I always have to update at my friends houses. But please enjoy.

Haru sighed, and addressed his men. "Okay, gentlemen, thanks to your new friend Hahn, you'll spend tonight picking up every single grain of rice. Tomorrow, the real work begins."
All the men glared evily at Katara and got started.
Lung winced, "You know, we have to work on your people skills."

The next morning, Katara had the misfortune of sleeping in.
Lung stared dissaprovingly at Katara's sleeping form. He picked up Momo and bit his tail, cousinng him to screech loudly. "All right, rise and shine, Sleeping Beauty! C'mon, hup, hup, hup!"
Katara woke up sleepily, and tried to pull the blanket over her, and Lung pulled it off just as quickly.
"Get your clothes on, get ready! Got breakfast ready. Look, you get stewed sea prunes! And it's happy to see you!" He smiled widely, shoving prunes in her mouth. Momo fell in the bowl of prunes while Lung quickly pushed him out. "Hey, get out of there! You're gonna make people sick!"
"Am I late?" Katara yawned, when Lung stuffed another prune in her mouth. Then another.
Lung continued to stuff sea prunes in her mouth while instructing her on what to do. "No time to talk. Now, remember, it's your first day of training, so listen toyour teacher and no fighting, play nice with the other kids, unless, of course, the other kids want to fight, then you gotta kick the other kid's butt."
Katara frowned through the torrent of prunes. "But I don't want to kick the other kids' butts."
Lung frowned dissaprovingly. "Don't talk with your mouth full. Now let's see your war face."
Katara looks at Lung, her mouth full of sea prunes.
"Oh, I think my bunny slippers just ran for cover. C'mon, scare me, girl!" Lung sighed sarcastically.
"Rrrrraaaaarrrgggghhhhh!"
Lung reered back in surprise."That's my tough looking warrior! That's what I'm talking about! Now, get out there and make me proud!"
Appa grunted loudly at Lung, and Lung stared back, surprised. "What do you mean, the troops just left?
"They WHAT?!" Katara screamed at Lung, rushing to get dressed, the rushed out of the tent. Lung:
"Wait, you forgot your sword!" Lung sniffed. "My little baby, off to destroy people ..."
Katara ran to join the crowd, but was confonted by Sokka, Zuko, and Aang.

"Oh! H-hey guys!" Katara laughed jokingly.

"Nice try Katara. We know it's you, Hahn." Sokka shook his head.

"Why is this water peasent here anyways?" Zuko frowned.

"Don't make fun if my friend Zuko." Aang barked at him. "Katara, why are you here? They'll kill you if they find you out!"
"Order! People, order!" Tong called out for everyone to get organized.

"I'd like a pan-fried noodle!" Sokka shouted. "Katara, we'll talk about this later."
Aang nodded, then called out. "Fruit pies please!"
Tong sighed, tapping his clipboard. "That's not funny."
haru walked out to the montage of troops, silencing them. "Soldiers! You will assemble swiftly and silently, every morning. Anyone who does otherwise, will answer to me."

Zuko rolled his eyes sarcastically. "Ooh, tough guy."
Haru pulled out a bow and arrow and aims it at Zuko, then at the top of a high pole in the middle of the camp."Zuko. Thank you for volunteering. Retrieve the arrow."
Zuko narrowed his eyes, and walked over to the pole. "I'll get that arrow, pretty boy."
Haru stopped him. "One moment, you seem to be missing something." He pull two giant medals out of a box. "This represents disipline. And this represents strength. You need both to reach the arrow." He tie them around Zuko's wrists, and all the soldiers after him, and none of them can make it to the arrow.
Haru sighed. "We've got a long way to go."
Beginning of "I'll Make a Man Out of You."
Haru:

Let's get down to business
To defeat the Fire Nation
To teach you all of this,
I'll need more than just patience
You're the most sorry benders I've ever seen,
And I mean, before we're through,
Mister, I'll make a bender
Out of you.
Steady as a boulder
And as determined as me
Once you find your center
They are sure to flee
You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot
And you can bet before we're through
Mister, I'll make a bender out of you.
Aang:
I'm never gonna get through this
Zuko:
Say good-bye to those who knew me
Sokka:
Boy I was a fool in for not practicing
Lung:
This guy's got 'em scared to death
Katara:
Why doesn't he just plain kill us?
Aang:
Now I really wish that I knew how to bend earth
(Be a man)
We must be swift as all the air benders
(Be a man)
With all the force of a water tribe
(Be a man)
With all the strength of the Fire Nation
Mysterious as the wrath of th Dai Li
Time is racing t'ward us
Till the comet arrives
Heed my every order
And you might survive
You can't even bend a pebble
So pack up, go home, you're through
How could I make a man out of you
(Be a man)
We must be swift as all of the airbenders
(Be a man)
With all the force of the water tribe
(Be a man)

With all the strength of the fire nation
Mysterious as the wrath of the Dai Li!
(Be a man)
We must be swift as all of the airbenders
(Be a man)
With all the force of the water tribe
(Be a man)
With all the strength of the fire nation
Mysterious as the wrath of the Dai Li!

Azula lightning bended the top off a tree, when a messenger hawk flew overhead and drops a small earth kingdom doll in her neatly manicured hand. Azula jump down from the tree and throws the doll to Zhao. "What do you see?"
Zhoa observed the doll for a moment. "Black pine ... from the high mountains!"
Ty Lee took the doll from his hands and took a small hair off of it. "White horse hair ... I like horses...
Mai grabbed it from the distracted Ty Lee and noticed the black soot on it's dress. "Sulphur ... from cannons."
Azula nodded approvingly. "This doll came from a village near the Serpent's Pass, where the Imperial Army is waiting."
Kernal Mongke shook his head. "We can avoid them easily."
Azula stared the leader of the rough rhinos down. "No. The quickest way to the Earth King is through that pass. Besides, the little girl will be missing her doll. We should return it to her."

Yet another chapter complete! Next time, I'll update sooner.
