Chapter 4: The Lake

(All are by a steaming lake. Teo and Hikaru are sitting on the side, talking about their pasts and such. Zuko and Aang are tossing a ball of fire back and forth, and everyone else is keeping their distance. Katara is glaring at Zuko from the other side of the lake. Cassandra and Sokka are having a random conversation similar to Hikaru and Teo's. Toph, Hana, and Haru are having a bending competition on the shore. The Duke is playing around and splashing random people. Abi and Katara are sitting on rocks near a waterfall, which Hikaru is eyeing nervously out of the corner of her eye. Sokka continues to talk to Cassandra.)

Sokka: So...

Cassandra: Did you know tomorrow's my birthday?

Sokka: No, I had no idea.

Cassandra: I don't want any presents, though. Just living is good enough...

Sokka: Really?

Cassandra: On second thought, I want a pony deer. *Looks at Sokka's shocked face and laughs* I'm kidding!

Sokka: *sighs in releif*

Cassandra: But really, I don't want anything.

Sokka: Oh well, you might get a little something something. *notices Abi glaring at him and Sokka turns away muttering to Cassandra about endangering his life by talking to her*

Cassandra: *looks at Abi slightly annoyed* That was kinda odd... *watches Abi walk over to Sokka and start talking to him* I wonder... *moves closer so she can hear*

Sokka: Abi, I wasn't flirting with her!

Abi: You'd better not be! I asked Aang about trying to find Suki, and he said he's think about it! So you better keep your love life strait!

Sokka: *kind of dazed voice* we're going to find Suki?

Abi: Possibly. I hope so. She seems really nice.

Sokka: ... WE SHOULD GO NOW!!

Abi: *crosses her arms as everyone turns to stare* We can't dufus! One: Aang hasn't said if we should yet. Two: we have no idea where she is and Three: if she's in the Fire Nation there's no way we can go get her now in broad daylight! So calm down. *Swims off back to the waterfall and messes around with it*

Katara: Abi, want to see if we can redirect the waterfall? Just for fun?

Abi: You bet! That sounds awesome. *She and Katara start bending the water so it's flowing backwards on itself and they try to redirect it* Cool!

Katara: I didn't think it would work... wow!

Katara: Sokka, can't you not wait to see Suki again!? We'll find her.

Abi: Yup, we'll find her. *to Cassandra and Sokka* which means you little lovebirds better get over your attraction to each other quick.

Sokka: *glares* Whatever...
