Her body lay weak and tired on the soft dirt, unable to move.
She began drifting into the darkness, her consciousness slowly creeping away from her, fainting into the black.
And it wasn't a while until two arms picked her up and held her, walking away with her stiff body to somewhere unknown.
Yet she hadn't noticed. For she was already gone...
She woke up to find herself, not on dirty grounds, but on a soft bed. Bed? Where was she? How did she get there? Who took her? Questions buzzed in her hurting head as she propped herself. Nothing but shadows...
"Hello?" she asked, now trembling in fear. "Sokka? Aang? Toph? Where are you guys? I - Is anybody there?" Nothing...
Pulling up the covers closer to her, she glanced around. A room. She was in a room. A rather small and ridget looking room though. The moon peered over to uncover walls, colored to depressing shades of gray... old pictures, of not people, but skies, mountains, lakes, volcanoes... and a masked figure, standing just by the door.
She let out a small scream, to which the figure rushed towards her and covered her mouth, so as to stop her. With it's hands muffling her, her sound slowly died out, back into silence again. It's hands felt warm, yet firm. A guy... It was a guy. Both stared at each other.
"Wh - who are you?" she asked, now wanting to cry. She was terrified!
"..."
"Um, hello? Wh - who are y - you?"
Yet no asnwer. Instead, he motioned to her to be quiet. Her tears finally poured out to the masked stranger infront of her.
"Wh - who are you!? Where am I? I - I want to go back! Now!"
He shook his head 'No'.
"P - please, please... don't... hurt... me." He gazed into her cerulean eyes, the moon reflecting onto it making it sparkle a bit. Again it shook his head and instead, cupped her face in its hands, wiping away those tears. She nodded. After a while, it lay her head back into the pillow, gently as he could. Brushing off the last of what she cried, he lightly carressed her, running his hand through her hair... and it wasn't long until she fell back asleep, to his touch.
