Two of my OCs are now in the story! Lol I'm excited.


"Whoa, no pressure right" I said sarcastically making Brianna laugh. "Sorry to burst your bubble Avatar Roku, but I don't think we can help anyone if we don't even know how to use these weapons or our powers. There's no way we can do this alone."

"I never said that you were." Brianna and I looked at one another, hoping the other would have a clue as to what he was talking about. "I think it's about time you revealed yourselves you two." I looked around wondering who he was talking to, but could only see the two of us and his dragon. I followed where his eyes were looking which led to Brianna and myself. I then realized that he was staring at the charms making me wonder if he was talking to the First Avatar.

Just as I was about to ask, a white light surrounded my charm as I could feel a strong power source coming from it. I glanced over at Brianna who had a black light coming from hers but contained the same amount of power. I tried to shield my eyes from the lights, not used to the brightness. I could feel something coming out of the charms becoming its true form. When the two lights finally started to fade I put my hands down and tried to make out what was in front of us. I felt my heart stop when I saw the pair of eyes I had seen earlier that morning. The conflicting feeling that I had been trying to avoid had returned but soon disappeared completely. I felt tears then flow down my cheeks as I gazed into the two gentle and familiar eyes.

On its right eye was a gentle sky blue color while the one on its left was a warm golden sunset shade. They belonged to a beautiful white creature that looked like a large wolf the size of a horse. On its back were two dove wings making it seem even more graceful and elegant. The pair of wings was so long that the feathers almost touched the cloud's surface even when they were enclosed. Behind it were three tails all divided equally and were held high up showing that it was neither afraid nor enraged with our presence.

I slowly walked toward it, my tears flowing faster with each step, but I never stopped walking nor did I remove my eyes from it. By the time I had finally reached it my eyes felt like a waterfall as I went to hug its neck. The wolf closed its eyes as it allowed me to pet it. My tears stopped flowing as I brushed the back of its neck. I saw it slowly open its eyes and stared up into mine making my tears build up again. I tightened my grip on it as it placed its head against my shoulder, making me feel as if I could understand what it was feeling.

I had finally understood why it was that I felt confused when I looked into those eyes. It was because it made me realize that I was alone and that I had been missing a part of me. It showed me just how much I needed my missing piece. I held the wolf tightly in my arms not wanting to let go as my tears fell down my cheeks and slid onto its fur.

After I had finally calmed down I slowly released the wolf from my grasp then looked into its eyes. It looked back into mine showing its gentleness which filled my heart with warmth. I let the two remaining tears fall from my eyelashes and slowly trickle down, but the wolf had stopped them by licking the salty remains off my face. I smiled down at it; a smile that I felt was overflowed with happiness that I hadn't shared with anyone since my childhood. Something I had thought I would have never been able to express again. I placed a hand over its right ear and softly rubbed it with my fingers. It licked my knuckle showing its affection and caused me to remember where I was.

I looked over to my right and saw Brianna had been watching me that whole time. I felt my cheeks burn up from embarrassment. I saw that she was completely taken back at the sight of this unfamiliar side of me, a side I thought had died long ago. When my blush finally disappeared I gave her a reassuring smile then noticed for the first time the other creature that had come out of Brianna's charm.

I couldn't explain why but the panther like creature felt as if it were the complete opposite of the wolf beside me. Its body was consisted only of the color black, except for a white diamond that was centered on its forehead and had a horn extending out of the mark. It had bat wings that were the same length as the wolf's and were just about the same size. Its sharp eyes were a night sky black and twinkled as if there were stars inside, showing its exciting personality.

I looked up at Brianna who was petting the large cat as if it was one of her pets back home. Their bond felt different from the wolf and I, but seemed just as close. They were more like long lost twins, while it felt as if the wolf and I completed each other.

I got up from the cloudlike ground and turned my attention to Roku, who seemed to be happy with our little scene. I glanced over at Brianna who was wearing an extremely wide smile. I looked up at the wolf as it got to its feet and couldn't help but smile up at it. I saw it return my smile with its own before I turned back to Roku.

"Thank you," I said to him as I bowed "I am truly grateful to you." I could feel another smile form on my face as I lifted my head. "I swear to you that I will obey the Avatar's wishes and protect this world, even if I have to give up my own life." Brianna took a step foreword as she placed a hand on the panther's head.

"Hey don't forget about me," she said to me then turned to Roku. "Thank you Avatar Roku, I also swear to protect and assist the Avatar on his journey!" repeating what I had just said but with more excitement. "I'm sorry I'm not good at this kind of stuff," she said after realizing how sudden her outburst was. I couldn't help but giggle softly at her mistake and saw that she had given me a threatening glare. I just shrugged my shoulders and gave her a somewhat apologetic look, but we both knew that her glares had little affect on me.

"Avatar Roku, may I ask what are these two creatures? I can't explain it but for some reason it feels as if we have met them before." Brianna looked surprised that I knew what she had been thinking, but then remembered that I was the type that learned people's behavior patterns quickly making it easy to predict actions and thoughts. Roku looked back at his dragon and pat it across the nose.

"Unlike the two of us, you two have an even closer bond with those creatures. They are actually part of you, they are you." He stopped petting his dragon and looked over to us. "They will feel pain if you are hurt, they will fall ill if you do, and will die if you should ever pass on. Although if they should happen to die in battle, they will be revived, and if they are injured they will heal within a day depending on the injury." I looked over to the wolf afraid of the possibility that I might get injured and cause it pain. It seemed to notice me staring but gave me a soft woof-like sound that told me not to worry too much. I didn't feel completely satisfied with its response but turned my attention back to Roku.

"Another thing you should know, just because they are part of you doesn't mean that they will feel the same emotions you will all the time. They have their own personalities and opinions, even though you should be able to understand what they are feeling you should still be careful" Roku warned us but seemed to be addressing me more.

"So what are their names?" Brianna asked suddenly breaking the seriousness of the moment. I gave out a sigh not knowing why she couldn't wait to ask that question. Although Roku didn't seem to mind as he just turned to her and smiled.

"You are to name them." I saw Brianna slump over confusing everyone but me. I already knew why she was acting up.

"Rebecca," she called my name in a whining voice as she turned to look at me.

"Hai, hai I'll come up with a name for your panther okay?" I saw Brianna's face light up, but I could feel my head start to ache. "So what do you want, a Japanese name?" I asked her while rubbing my forehead.

"Yeah, it would be better that way," she said after a moment of thinking.

"Okay," I walked over to the cat and looked down at it. "Is it a boy or a girl?" I asked both Roku and Brianna. Brianna shrugged her shoulder while Roku just remained silent. I sighed wondering how I was going to be able to come up with a name without knowing the cat's gender.

"I'm a girl," an unfamiliar voice filled my head. Brianna jumped back while I just slightly flinched. I looked over at the cat as I stared up at it.

"Telepathy," I asked in a disbelieving tone.

"Yep," I heard the young female voice reply as the panther nodded its head. I looked over at Brianna who looked completely freaked out.

"Tell me you just heard that," I asked making sure that I wasn't the only one that could hear her voice. Brianna didn't respond but just nodded her head rapidly, making it look as if her head might snap off at any minute. I then turned to Roku who just stood there silently. "Can you hear them?"

"Yes, but only because I am a spirit and they are both technically spirits," I raised my eyebrow confused, while Brianna just stared over at Roku completely lost in the conversation. "It is because they are part spirit that you are able to come to the Spirit World without having an out of body experience. However, they must be with you in order for you to enter the Spirit World. The same can be said for them going into the world of the living. Without you there they are unable to go." I nodded my head now understanding what he meant, but Brianna still looked a bit confused but understood enough.

"So does that mean we can't communicate with them when we go into the world of the living?" I asked.

"No you both are the only ones that are able to speak with them without any limitations. They can always talk to you telepathically even when they are inside your charms. Other than that it is only the Avatar that is able to hear them, but that can only happen during certain conditions." When Roku was done explaining I looked over at the wolf and then the panther as I raised an eyebrow.

"Do you both have names?" I asked.

"Nope," the panther responded somewhat cheerfully. "So you get to name us!"

"Umm sure I guess I could, seeing how Brianna sucks with names." I saw that she was about to protest but then let my comment slide knowing that I was right about that. I turned back over to the panther and then looked back at Brianna. "Tama," I said jokingly. I saw Brianna burst into laughter but that died when we both noticed that the panther's eyes had turned red. They seemed like her eyes were a furnace that was filled with flames inside.

"Hey, calm down it was a joke." I watched as the flaming red eyes turned back into its calm night sky color. It was then I came up with a name that seemed to fit her. "How about Nyoko, it means gem. Since she seems to shine but is hard and tough like metal." I watched as Brianna's face lit up.

"Yeah, that's perfect!" She ran back to the panther's side. "Okay from now on your name is Nyoko," she told the cat. She nodded her head happily as I heard a purring sound come from her. I then turned to the wolf who had just been calmly watching us that whole time.

"What about you, do you want a name?" I asked as it looked down at me with its gentle eyes.

"Well I can't have you calling me wolf now can I?" a masculine voice entered my head. I smiled as I walked over to him. He was about a head taller than I was when he stood on his four legs, which is pretty big for a wolf. I glanced over at Nyoko and saw that she was about a half a head taller than Brianna which was surprising since Brianna was a couple inches taller than me. I placed my right hand on his head as I pet the side of his face. "Your name will be Gin which means silvery."

"Why silvery?" I heard Brianna ask from behind. I looked up at Gin and gave him a small smile.

"Because his fur is white and my hair is black so we make a gray, but Gin is special so that's why he's silvery." I tapped my head against his making both of us smile. I then turned towards Roku. "Can you explain to us one more thing?" Roku looked into my eyes and nodded his head. "It's about our powers and these weapons, how do we use them?" Roku looked over at my staff and Brianna's twin hooks. We both stared down at their cool metal, admiring their beauty.

"The weapons were made specifically for the two of you, so there are no others like them in this world. Meaning there is no master that can teach you, not even myself. You two will have to come up with your own style of fighting. As for your powers they will come naturally to you, because they are also a part of you now. In time you will be able to uncover all the possibilities you both can do together." I gave out a heavy sigh as I placed my hands behind my head.

"Once again, you responded to our question but left us with no real answer. Man I hate not knowing anything!" I leaned against Gin as if I had always done it in the past.

"I'm sorry that I couldn't be more help to the two of you."

"Don't worry about it. You were more than enough help to us." Brianna said happily trying to cheer up the elderly spirit. "Anyway we're fast learners so we'll be okay." She elbowed me to say something. I stood up straight as I placed my hands on my hips.

"Yeah, don't worry about us Avatar Roku. It's going to take a lot more than hard work to bring the two of us down, well four." I said confidently to the elderly man. "There's just one thing that I'm a bit worried about though. What are we going to do about these?" I took the bottom of my shirt as I stretched it out while I grabbed one of Brianna's sleeves and started tugging at it lightly. "Our clothes would be noticeable in this world. We'll attract unwanted attention."

"That is something you can fix for yourself, just close your eyes like you have done before and the First Avatar should provide you with the clothes you need." We obeyed his orders and closed our eyes once more. I could feel the lights coming out from our charms. I tried to open my eyes to see what was going on and saw that I was being surrounded by a blue and white light while Brianna was surrounded by a gold and brown light. I could feel my clothes being transformed over me, causing me to feel tingling over every part of my skin. When the light had finally died down I turned to Brianna, because I was afraid to look down at my own clothes.

She didn't look half bad, in fact if I didn't know any better she looked kind of like she was from the Earth Kingdom. She wore a one piece dress that was a dark brown around her chest area but more of a cream color going down. The dress went above her knees but she wore a pair of pants underneath that seemed to have the same pattern as the dress. The top half was the cream color then had a dark brown and pink sash going around the center while the rest of it was an orangey yellow color. The dress seemed to have straps but was attached to golden short sleeves. On her left arm under the sleeve was a longer looser looking sleeve that was cream colored. Her right arm remained bare revealing the brace and charm that seemed to go well with the whole outfit. And to complete it she wore a pair of dark brown Chinese looking fighting shoes. She looked like someone from the Avatar Series which was a good thing if we were ever going to blend in with this world. I then noticed Brianna staring at me shocked and happy at the same time, making me feel uncomfortable.

"What?" I asked confused as to why she was staring at me with such excited and happy eyes. She opened her mouth trying to find the right words to describe what she saw.

"You..look..so..cute!" Brianna said breaking down each word making her sound a little like a cave woman. I looked down at my clothes for the first time shocked at what I was wearing.

I looked like I was wearing a long robe that the air benders wore only mine was a grayish blue with dark gray lines decorating every edge of the robe. My sleeves were incredibly loose making me really feel like I was wearing a robe from ancient times. There was an dark gray sash around my waist and was neatly tucked in so that you couldn't find the end of it. Everything else under it opened up revealing the black tights I had on that went down to my knees. The bottom of the robe opened up and had an extra loose cloth that split in the middle. I wore turquoise boots that matched the shoulder pads on my robe. And because I was wearing a robe I had a black undershirt tucked inside so that my chest area was covered. The robe made it so that my choker would be noticeable and matched the outfit well.

"I knew I felt a draft," I whispered to myself. I heard Brianna groan, muttering something about my low self esteem and not being able to accept compliments. "Hey Brianna," I called and she turned around but I could tell that she looked unhappy. "It looks good on you," Brianna then looked down at her own outfit as her mouth dropped open. I chuckled to myself as she squealed with delight, happy with her new outfit. I turned toward Roku again. "I just have one other concern," I said after I realized something off about Brianna's appearance. I reached out and grabbed her brown hair streaked with blond highlights. "What are we going to do about her hair?" I asked as I tugged at it lightly.

"Unfortunately I don't think that there's anyway to fix that," Roku said while stroking his beard "but you girls seem smart I'm sure you'll think of something. Although I highly doubt it will cause you any real harm." For some reason I couldn't find any real comfort in his words. I felt that her hair was going to be more trouble than it was worth, and was also a bit shocked at the fact that the First Avatar is able to create these amazing weapons and clothes, but can't change a person's hair color. Then again, that ability wouldn't be of much use in this world.

"Where is the Avatar now?" I asked, deciding to drop the topic about Brianna's hair completely.

"He is at the Southern Air Temple. We must hurry if you two are to catch him." He motioned us to gather together along with our new partners. When we were all cluttered together Gin and Nyoko started glowing and then looked like they were turning into their spirit forms. They flew around and then entered our charms again.

"Don't worry they will come out when you reach the other side." We nodded out heads understanding and a bit relived. Roku then started to slowly walk towards us as he raised his arms out before us. He placed his hand on our shoulders then closed his eyes. "Goodbye and good luck," he said to us.

When he opened his eyes they had become completely white as I could feel my body fading away. I took out my hand and grabbed Brianna's wrist who responded by shifting her hand so that we were hand in hand. We both started to disappear as the light formed around us. I couldn't hear or see Roku anymore. The only thing I could sense was that Brianna was holding my hand and we were both falling downwards. I heard her let out a scream as I looked down and saw the Southern Air Temple come into sight. We both got ready for the impact of hitting the roof, but were surprised when as we went right through it and were now inside the Air Temple Sanctuary. I could see Aang, Katara, and Sokka below us. Aang was looking at Roku's statue as Katara walked to his side.


I hoped you liked Gin and Nyoko, they really help the story keep going. Also for those of you that don't know Yin is supposed be the category for earth and water while Yang is sky (aka air in this case) and fire, but I didn't know that when I first started this story. It wasn't until I was about half way though Book One did I discover this fact. So instead of going back and changing everything I decided to keep it at that, because honestly I think that these elements suit us just fine and also it would have screwed up my entire plot.

Disclaimer: The outfits used in this story I based them off pictures I found online. I am planning on posting up some of the scenes in the story on my Deviant Art page and I will have a link there that will show the original pictures that I used, so please be patient with me.
