"So what exactly are you saying? That we shouldn't attack the Fire Nation?" Keima shook his head.
"That is not the basis of my dreams, but I do see it as a waste. Something will go wrong. In my visions there were tears, confusion, and a pretty warrior girl in a cage." Sokka's ears pricked up at that.
"Suki?" Keima turned to look over at Sokka. He nodded.
"The girl with the warrior's paint. If' that is her name then yes." Sokka jumped up from his chair, Katara grabbed his arm and jerked him back into his seat.
"You could take me to Suki?" Keima looked at Sokka then shook his head. He turned to look over at Toph.
"It would do me no good to lead you to her yet. She would be moved before we got there. She is alive and will be for some time. But I need to focus on helping you evade death, if possible. Toph being my main concern." Toph felt the fire flood to her face, but frowned back the blush. Sokka growled and slammed his hand down on the table, bringing Keima's attention back to him.
"Just why are you so interested in Toph? Are you a pervert? Some sort of pedophile?" Katara stared at her brother with wide eyes. What the hell is wrong with him!? Keima just looked at Sokka calmly. He took his glove off and placed it on the table. Sokka, Katara and Aang all set far back in there chairs as they watched his hand.
"Allow me to show you, Sokka, just why I am 'interested' in Toph." Sokka shook his head. Keima kept his eyes on Sokka as he smiled. "No flash backs, I am focused mainly on one thing. It will not hurt physically." Sokka frowned and reached across the table touching Keima's warily. The man wrapped his hand around Sokka's and closed his eyes. Sokka swallowed hard and closed his eyes as well.
A blank expression on a porcelain face looked up into the darkness. Blood streamed from the mouth. Dirt covered hands twitched in the last moments of life as the ground began to quake. As the dirt jolted so did the body. An arched back, a sigh of death, and a shower of blood began to fall. Screams sounded through the air. Heat welled up over the body, erupting it in flames.
Keima broke the vision and stared at Sokka, who snapped his eyes open wide.
"Did you recognize her?" Sokka swallowed hard again, trying to fight back a lump in his throat. He turned slowly to look over at Toph. Aang frowned and looked over to Keima.
"What is the extent of your powers?"
"I have visions, and see future events. Upon contact with someone else or if their energy is strong enough I can see their past. I can transmit visions into others, and also.." Thoughts if I need to. Aang looked up in the air then to either side before he looked back to Keima.
"Holy horse-cow!?" Keima smiled and sat back in the chair.
"Moo." Aang looked and the man for a moment.
"Could you look into our future and see what is going to be the outcome of the final battle?" Keima frowned and shook his head.
"No because the future is never set in stone. If it was, then why would I be here trying to keep you all from destroying yourselves?" Aang nodded, but then ten thousand questions entered his mind.
"Wait could you look into my chakra? One of my points is blocked and..."Keima's hand shot across the table before Aang could finish his sentence. Aang's eyes snapped shut as he felt a force enter his body. He could feel Keima coursing through his body, searching, looking, studying. The heat from Keima was gone as quickly as it had flooded into him. Keima looked at the Avatar with a smile.
"I cannot unblock your blockage. But It will not come as a hindrance in your travels. Once you get a fire master, he will be able to help you break it down yourself." Aang's eyes brightened.
"He? My master will be a man." Keima felt a sweat drop appear on his forehead. T.T; He shook his head.
"No. I was using he, as a generic term. I am not sure as to who your master will be or their gender." He said with a guilty smile. "As soon as I told you who or what it would be, it would change." Aang frowned.
"But I thought you could see the future."Toph ask as she leaned back in the chair. Keima sighed.
"Yes. But there are things that are concrete, things that are flexible, things that are avoidable, and things that are fickle. Those fickle things are the ones that the spirits tend to change at a moment's notice. And who we interact with or meet or even love, are things that are ever changing."
"Oh." Toph said with a frown. She 'looked' over towards Keima and frowned.
"Just why is it that you focus on me." Keima frowned. He stood up.
"Take a walk with me, and I'll tell you." Toph stood up and Sokka grabbed her arm.
"No. How can we trust him? Toph cocked an eyebrow at Sokka and shook her head.
"Have you forgotten that I'm and Earth bender? I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself." Sokka looked at her and let go of her arm. He glared at Keima and shook his head.
"You hurt one hair on her and I'll kill you." Katara and Aang both turned to stare wide eyed at Sokka. Keima smiled and nodded at him and followed the blind girl out of the tea house. He walked evevn with her in silence until she spoke.
"I am going to die, aren't I?" Keima shook his head but quickly reminded himself that she couldn't see.
"Not necessarily."
"Then what was all that grim talk about?"
"In my visions, yes I have seen your death. It isn't pretty, nor is it peaceful. But the more visions I have that feature you, I will learn more of what is ahead." Toph stopped.
"Why did you show me the auras, and not Katara, or Aang?" Keima shook his head to himself. He looked at her.
"Sometimes a person has to be blind in order to actually see. What I had shown you is a gift that not only I possess. Everyone has the ability to see things as I do, but in the majority of people it lays dormant in the back of their mind. You however are not distracted by what your eyes tell you is there, or what your eyes see. You are able to look beyond the physical sight because you do not possess it. If I were to try to show any of your friends, even the Avatar, they would have a difficult time seeing what they were supposed to if there were able to see at all." Toph nodded she turned to face him.
"Why are you being so nice to me? Why aren't you treating me like I'm a handicap?" Keima smiled, then laughed.
"Because you aren't treating me like a monster. Why should your being without sight be a handicap? If anything it's a gift." Toph smiled.
"I've never met anyone who looked at it the way I do."
"Well, then you need to meet more people."
