Where am I? Who am I?
Wandering about the forest, small footsteps stumbled about in the darkness. She knew it was the forest because of the sound of rustling leaves all around her, and the long roots that jutted out managed to trip her feet. Falling flatly on her face, the girl spat out leaves that managed to cling to her braided hair. A soft chirping was heard nearby, and looking up at a nearby tree, a small white creature sat on a low branch.
"Hello there, can you help me?" The creature just looked down at her curiously, and after a few seconds, jumped down to perch on her shoulder. "Aww, aren't you just the cutest thing? Why don't you come along with me? I can't remember who I am, or where I am anyways!" She lovingly scratched the small creature on its chin, eliciting an appreciative purr from the long eared animal.
Giggling, the girl stood up with the small creature still perched upon her shoulder, and continued marching through the forest. Just as the young girl was about to give up all hope of escape, a faint light in the distance peered through the overbearing trees revitalizing her efforts.
She jumped for joy when she finally felt the warm sun on her skin, and saw for the first time what she wore, and the color of her arms. At least, the first time that she could remember, anyways. Ignoring herself for a moment, the girl saw a lone figure standing in the middle of the field. Thinking that they would know who she was, the girl rushed quickly towards the person's direction.
"Excuse me! Do you know who I am?" The girl hollered at the top of her lungs. When she reached the lone figure, she realized that the person was in fact, a smaller girl than she. Her hair was black, and in a big bun. Her back thwarted the first girl's ability to see the new person's face. "I'm sorry to bother you but, could you help me?" Her apparently sharp ears heard a soft sniff come from the small girl. "Aww, what's the matter little girl?"
"I don't know where I am…" The young girl sniffled.
"Don't worry about that, I don't remember either. If you want to know, I don't remember my own name, how about you?" The first girl crouched down to the smaller child's eye level. She tenderly brushed the small girl's hair back, and strewing it over her ears.
"It's not just that…" the small girl started, "I-I can't see either…" It was true. The small girl's eyes were light sea foam green, lacking any irises of any kind.
"Well if you want to know, you're a very pretty girl." The long haired girl smiled, despite what the small child just told her. "You shouldn't hide such a pretty face under so much hair." Her efforts worked, and the small child grinned just a bit, and wiped away her own tears from her face.
"Will you help me remember who I am?"
"We'll both find out together, along with my friend." The small animal on the taller girl chirped slightly, eliciting an even bigger smile from the child. Taking each other's hand, the two continued their way through the field, off to find their memories.
The two friends were now on a gravelly road, continuing their search for their memories.
"I don't know why, but whenever I take a step, I can see…kind of…" the small girl said casually.
" Maybe that's a sign that your blindness is just temporary." The tall girl theorized, eliciting an even happier smile from the girl.
"I think I sense someone!" The little girl screamed. "And I think they're in trouble!" Tightly squeezing onto her seeing friend, the small girl tugged her along - off the path and into the woods. Eerily dodging trees and obstacles, the two plus little flying creature pushed into the middle of the woods and towards grunts of struggle. "What's going on?" the small girl halted in her place.
"Guys, don't fight!" The taller girl screamed out. Before them, two boys struggled about over a large egg, obviously raging with hunger. From the sudden shriek of the girl, the two boys stopped their hunger fueled onslaught, and stared directly towards her.
"Uh… hi?"
"Hi there." The first boy nervously sprang to his feet. "Uh, egg?" The gray eyed boy smiled widely. He approached the two girls, and handed it towards the one he thought was cute. "You're not hungry?"
Everyone looked down at the small child, who stared off obliviously to the boy's question. "What?"
"Uh, sorry. My friend here is blind." The elder girl waved her hand in front of her face to prove her point, and the small girl's face saddened at the fact.
"So, does that mean that she doesn't want this?" The small bald boy asked again.
"If she doesn't then I'll have it." The taller boy crept up from behind, and grabbed the egg for himself. He nuzzled the fragile food source to his face, more specifically the bandages wrapped around the left side of his face. Everyone looked back at him in wonder, leaving the boy to say the only thing he could. "What?"
The bushes nearby them began to ruffle, and a loud roar was heard in the distance. "What was that?" the bandaged boy screamed in terror.
"I don't know, but I don't want to stick around to find out!" All four of them ran back towards the gravelly path, with the girls leading the way. "Come on, follow us!' The four frantically made their way back to the meadow, where the girl thought the forest would be the best place to hide. Making turns she thought was right, they were brought to a halt when they came across a streaming river.
"Oh no!" the small boy wailed, and the large roar was heard by all once again. Huddling together, the four plus small creature looked up to the sky in fear when a huge unknown beast descended towards them.
"Aang, Toph!" An older boy's voice called out from above. The beast landed on the meadow with a large thump, revealing several people crowded atop a saddle. Confused, the four stepped slowly back, afraid of what the huge beast would do…especially if it were hungry.
"Don't worry guys; you'll all be back to normal soon." A strange group of people approached them with magic floating water, scaring them to no bounds. Before they knew it, the water divided into tendrils and wrapped around all of their ears, even the small chirping animal wasn't spared from the assault.
"Uh…where…am I?" the tall long haired girl groaned. The warmth of the sun irritated her, and she looked to her left where she felt a something heavy sitting on her shoulder. "Gah! Disgusting!" the small creature screeched back at her, and flew over to the lumbering beast.
"Mai! You're alright!" A lithe girl ran over to her broody friend and hugged her mercilessly.
"You guys ok?" Sokka strolled over to the confused twelve year olds.
"Uh…yeah, I guess so." The small earthbender shielded her blushing face from the taller Water Tribe boy.
"Katara!" Aang ran over to his waterbending Sifu.
"Prince Zuko, it's been lonely while you were gone" The warm voice of Iroh welcomed back his nephew. His amber eyes glanced down at the large egg in the young boy's hands. "And it looks like you got us some food!"
"Alright water girl, now that you're all chummy with your friends again, we've all made up our sides of the bargain. Now hand over the Avatar!" The Fire Nation princess jumped into a fighting stance.
"Um, I don't think so." The sly brunette grinned. Behind her, the large Appa strolled towards all of them, growling angrily. With a whip of his tail, the Fire Nation girls were blown away into the river, screaming and ridiculed once again.
"So, what happened? Why'd we all lose our memory?" Aang turned towards the two Water Tribe siblings.
"Well Aang, it's all because of-"
