Chapter 3

The Southern Air Temple

After 3 days traveling on sea, Katara ate her jerky as she stopped by an island with a real tall mountain and looked at it, the area was quiet, too quiet, it was like the place was dead, but sadly she didn't know that this place was basically a grave, getting to her feet she takes her bag with all of her supplies leaving nothing behind but the canoe and began her way up the mountain.

She tried airbending herself two levels each time which was no as easy as she hoped it to be but made it to the top successfully.

Looking at her map she read, "Southern Air Temple, if I'm lucky I can find some scrolls."

Walking around the silent area she walked into a giant palace and saw 100 years old rusted Fire Nation amours, helmet, shattered everywhere.

'This place is creepy.' She thought as she shuddered at the left over of the dead bodies….

Walking down the halls she walks up to a gigantic door with a gigantic horn symbolizing the Air Nomads.

She tried airbending a few times which felt like 15 minuets to finally get the damn door open. Walking into the room she looks at the half burnt scrolls, and ashes that covered the floor as she walked over to a chest and opened it and found tones of scrolls and read through most of them till she heard,

"Search everywhere, he could be here searching for the airbending scrolls!"

Katara gathered as many scrolls as possible and stuffed them into her bag as she hid behind the book shelf and peeked through the shelves by removing the books and watched the guards investigate the room as she saw a scarred teen enter the room and barking orders, "I know you are here avatar, you can run, but you can't hide!"

Katara suddenly began to panic, not just because of the scarred teen was close to finding her, because there were big round eyes staring at her.

The thing walked out of the shadows as she gasped under her breath, "A Lemur?"

The Lemur crawled over to her and perched on her shoulder and handed her a fruit as she stared at it strangely until she snapped back to earth and heard foot steps approaching her and prepared to attack but then the scarred teen began, "Retreat for the night, the avatar can't stay here forever without getting caught."

When the room got quiet she looked at the lemur and petted it and smiled, "I am going to name you Momo."

Momo stared at her as she got to her feet and the lemur jumped off her shoulders and began digging.

Katara knelt down by Momo and looked at the floor blowing off the ashes and found a secret door way.

Opening the door it squeaks loudly as she went down the stairs and followed Momo through the passage way.

Entering another door she saw a giant fluffy beast known as a flying bison and gasped, "Wow! A flying bison!"

Walking over to the beast she pats it as it groaned and looked at her as she grinned, "I'll name you Appa, and we'll save the world together."

The fluffy thing groaned happily as Katara opened the doors and got on to the saddle and thrown her things on and turned to Momo who was chirping poking a staff that hung on the wall, as Katara walked over to it and snapped it open and laughed, "A glider, this might help me with my airbending."

Getting on to Appa as Momo perched on the staff that rested on the saddle she asked, "Uh, go?"

The fluffy thing didn't move.

"Fly!"

Nothing.

"Yip, yip?"

The thing took off with a blast of energy into the sky as Katara laughed looking at the view.

"Uncle! THE AVATAR! Men retreat, go after that flying bison!"

Men scurried around the ship as the teen locked his eye on his target, "I am going to capture you once avatar, then take you home to restore something I lost for the last two years after searching the world for you!"

But what the teen wasn't ready for, that he was chasing a female avatar……

Disclaimer: HA! THAT Teen will be surprise, well anyways…he haven't met the avatar yet, which gives Katara an advantage.
