This is a completely unrelated topic but I can proudly say that I have finished my finals for this year, and to celebrate I decided to work on updating Avatar. Although this may overjoy some of you, please don't expect this often. I'm sorry to break it to you but I am a teenager and I do have another life.


((Rebecca's P.O.V))

"Let's go Appa! Come on, boy!" Aang yelled out as the tugged onto the bison reins. Appa let out a loud growl as a way to protest as he sat onto the ground making Aang's job harder. "Look, I'm sorry, but Katara and Sokka aren't coming to the Fire Nation with us. If they got hurt, I'd never forgive myself." Aang said as he looked sadly at the ground. He then glared up at his animal guardian as he raised his head up. "So get your big butt off the ground and let's go!" Aang continued to pull on the reins until he fell onto the ground. I heard Brianna burst out laughing beside me while I just let a small chuckle escape my lips. From the look at the sky we didn't have much time, even though the sun hadn't risen yet it took a long time for Roku's dragon to take us to our destination.

"I think his big butt is trying to tell you something," I heard Sokka's voice say from behind us.

"I thought you said no one was following us." I whispered to Brianna.

"What, I thought no one was!" she shouted in her defense.

"Please don't go, Aang. The world can't afford to lose you to the Fire Nation, neither can I." Katara said practically in tears. I let out a small sigh as I looked towards Aang who was obviously thinking about the comet from his vision he mentioned to us earlier.

"But I have to talk to Avatar Roku to find out what my vision means." Aang told the two. He then started walking towards Appa and signaled us to follow. "I need to get to the Fire Temple before the sun sets on the Solstice. That's today." He jumped onto Appa's head while I jumped into the saddle and helped Brianna up. Appa was getting ready to fly off when Sokka and Katara blocked us.

"We're not letting you go into the Fire Nation, Aang." Katara told him.

"At least not without your friends, we got your back too you know." Sokka said to Aang. Momo then flew to Aang's side while Appa showed Sokka some affection by licking him.

"It's a long journey to the Crescent Island," the chief said as he handed Aang a package. "You'll have to fly fast to have any chance of making it before sundown. Good luck."

"Thank you, for your…" Aang tried to show appreciation but was interrupted.

"Go!" the chief cried out flying.

"What a way to say goodbye," I said sarcastically as I looked back at the village. I looked over at Brianna as we flew over the burned forest. "How far do you think we have to travel?"

"I have no idea," Brianna said as she shrugged her shoulders. "Since it took a long time to get there on a dragon it might take longer with Appa." I let out a small yawn as I leaned against the saddle.

"Oh joy," I muttered under my breath as I got into a comfortable position. "Do you mind if I close my eyes. I didn't get much sleep last night," I said as I placed a hand over my eyes.

"Well considering that you stayed up all night and got zero sleep, I think it'd make sense as to why" Brianna said as she lightly hit my hand that was covering my face.

"What choice did I have? If I had slept you would have had to drag me onto Appa and I wouldn't even be able to help break into the Fire Nation temple," I explained to her as I rolled over to the side, due to the sun rays that were bothering me.

"Must be tough only being nocturnal," Sokka said as he cleaned his boomerang.

"Why is it that Rebecca can only sleep when the sun comes up?" Katara asked.

"I thought I told you to tell them the first day we meet them." I said with a sigh.

"I did, but you know I'm bad at explaining things!"

"Can't I have a break from being teacher?" I complained to myself. I forced myself up into a sitting position and looked at my three students. "Okay, so you know about our two elements and how we have two of the opposite elements from one another. My theory is that in order to keep balance we also have this sleeping habit. Since Brianna has the yang charm it must contain the property of morning, and seeing as how I am the opposite of Brianna, it would only be natural that I am more active at night because yin's property is night."

"Wait isn't it because your element is water and the moon is like your power source, and my element is fire so the sun is my source?" Brianna asked wondering if there was a flaw in my theory.

"Yes that is what I thought too, but if you really think about it that's not entirely true. If I was only active because of the moon then what would happen when there is no moon, otherwise known as the new moon. Some time ago I noticed the new moon had appeared but I was still active, which made me understand that the moon isn't my power source. Although I'm pretty sure that applies for you too. If there were such a day that the sun disappears it wouldn't affect you because unlike benders we are our elements. Which made me come to the conclusion that it's just a day and night thing."

"Someone clearly thought this through." Sokka said amazed.

"I have to, if I don't know my own weaknesses than how am I suppose to help protect Aang? The last thing you all need is a weak bodyguard."

"Oh come on, I think you're being too hard on yourself" Katara said kindly.

"She's right Rebecca. Why don't you relax a little? After all we're all still just kids," Brianna said agreeing with her.

"I appreciate that you're worried about me but I'm not use to people asking me to act my age," I said as rolled my body over so my back was facing away from everyone. An image of my family popped into my head making my chest ache. "Not one person wanted me to," I muttered under my breath. Another image flashed in my mind, only this time it was only of Alex, making me close my eyes to try and stop my aching heart.

"You shouldn't feel guilty. Alex needed you to grow up faster even though he didn't know it at the time." I heard Gin trying to comfort me.

"Yeah, I guess" I whispered into the charm.

((Brianna's P.O.V))

"Rebecca, she really seems like she suffered a lot," Katara said after we were all sure that Rebecca was in a deep sleep. "I wonder what happened to her."

"A lot is all I can tell you, because I don't even know all the details" I said as I looked over at Rebecca's sleeping figure. She was slightly curled up and had her hand placed over the choker. She looked so innocent and at peace, it was hard to believe that she was the same person.

"I heard from her that she used to wish she could disappear. Brianna did you know about it?" Aang asked me as he looked over him shoulder. I remained quiet for a second as I looked down at my hands.

"Yeah, I found out about a year after a met her."

"What did you do when you found out?" Katara asked a bit worried.

"Well, when she told me this, I got really confused and started yelling at her for a few minutes. I was confused and scared, but then I realized that's the last thing she would've wanted was for me to being; flipping out on her. So then I just tried to help her somehow, I guess…" I looked down at my feet feeling a bit nervous talking about something that I didn't really want to remember. I couldn't help but twitch a bit, since it was just in my nature to do so when I get nervous.

"Well does she still think like that?" Sokka asked as he looked over at Rebecca obviously worried that she might try something.

"Well from what Rebecca told me she hasn't recently had that feeling," Aang said recalling back to when we met Haru. "But I'm not really sure. I mean I hope she doesn't."

"What do you think Brianna? I mean you know her better than all of us," Katara said looking over at me.

"Depending on what her mood is and who she's talking to. Sometimes she does think things like that. It just happens, and I wish it didn't." I gave out a heavy sigh as I turned away from them, not wanting to see their reactions. We all flew in silence each not knowing what to say without feeling awkward.

"So," Sokka said after what seemed like hours "how long do you think she'll be asleep?" Sokka asked making everyone look down at Rebecca's sleeping figure.

"Well since this one stayed up all night, she'll probably sleep through the day, so don't disturb her." I looked down at Rebecca as a small smile formed on her lips making me mentally laugh then waved my arms around. "Besides she's so cute when she sleeps!"
