I own it not

Aang was woken up by Katara's scream. "What? What's wrong?" he jumped up, staff already in hand, pointing at whatever enemy was coming.

"Sokka!"

Aang was confused, "What about him?" he glanced down at Sokka's sleeping bag, then did a double take. "Where's Sokka?"

Katara held her hand. Clasped between her two middle fingers was a piece of wheat. "Jet." She said, her voice low and bitter.

Aang was confused, "Why Sokka? There's no point! If he wanted anybody, I was right here..." his eyes narrowed. "Zuko."

Katara's eyes became wide. "I get it now. Your prediction came true, Aang. Sokka's life is in danger. They're going to want a trade. Sokka for you." A thin smile came over her face, "Of course, we'll attack his camp before that."

Toph spoke up, "Not a great idea. If we try anything, he'll just kill Sokka. I mean, to him, Sokka's just a bargaining tool. He means nothing." Toph was matter-of-fact, which was one of the few things that could really set Katara off.

"What are we going to do?" she moaned, sinking to the ground. Aang sat down next to her, "We'll think of something, Katara. I'm sure of it."

Katara looked at him, her face tear-stained. "I can't lose Sokka, Aang. I've lost too many people to do that again." She buried her face in Aang's shoulder, causing him to blink a couple of times before patting her on the back awkwardly.

Toph stood up, pacing across the sand, stumbling every once in a while. "Maybe we should go talk to him, then wing it from there."

Aang watched Toph, his jaw going a little slack. "Are you nuts! We can't go against the prince of the Fire Nation and just 'wing it'! We need a plan!" Aang's face turned red, and Momo backed away from him, taking his fruit with him.

Katara plucked on Aang's sleeve, causing him to look back at her, his face turning back to the normal color. "Do you have any better plans? We need to get Sokka out of there. Who knows what he's going through?"

Aang looked at her for a long second, and in that terrible moment, she was sure that Aang would veto the idea, saying it was too dangerous. She decided that if he did say that she would go find her brother anyway.

"Sure. We'll go tomorrow." Katara wondered why tomorrow. Why not today? "We need a day of practice. We are going against a fire bender." Katara nodded. "Fair enough."

Yeah...review?
