Chapter 2

A/N: I just got addicted to Attack on Titan. Captain Levi is awesome, but he looks fifteen when he's thirty… Confusing! Well chappie two is up and thanks to Rexan for reviewing. My editor has come back so hopefully I won't have to keep updating the chapter. Now let's move on. Oh, I'm still looking for the Frozen one-shot.

The song for the fight in this chapter: Dawn of the Mage by: Peter Gundry l Fantasy Music (found on youtube!)

Disclaimer: As of thirty seconds ago me no own Avatar the Last Airbender. If I did it would totally be Zuko and Katara not Katara and Aang and there would be a fourth book.

Now young children it is story time. (Not recommended for children under the age of five.)

SORRY THIS IS SO LATE!

Akira

I braced myself, scanning the greenery for the three females. I heard footsteps of them going in different directions. Branches cracked from behind me, to the left leaves rustled. There was only one that I couldn't find.

I waited for a few more seconds. My senses picking up nothing. They had all gone quiet. Where were they?

"Do you really think he's the avatar?" One of the voices questioned. It echoed around.

The world seemed to freeze for a second before the sounds of the earth breaking apart ripped through the area.

I looked up, the boulders flew at me from two different directions. The ground turned to lava. Before I could think I jumped up. My feet planting themselves onto one of the boulders. I pushed off, flying through mid-air. The wind blew my long hair and sleeves back.

The ground had started to turn into lava. I started to run. Another boulder came flying at me.

I watched him, sneaking up closer. The boulder hit the boy. He keeled over and started to cough. I saw some blood get spit out. It must have been a hard blow. Nevertheless he got up again and continued running. Boulders continued to fly at him.

He jumped around trying everything to avoid contact with the boulders. By the looks of it this was a losing battle. Three benders versus a non-bender. Maybe he wasn't the person I was looking for.

Akira

Swish. The boulder brushed against my forehead. I took off running through the woods. Vines grabbing my feet, trying to slow me down. Another shower of rocks came flying at me, one hitting the middle of my back, forcing me onto the ground. I coughed and tried to get up.

"Are you sure this is him?" One of the females asked.

I tried to get back up on my feet.

"He doesn't bend."

The ground started to sound like waves in an ocean.

"I doubt he's anything special."

I managed to stand up. Blood rushed to my head and I started to see stars. One more boulder came soaring at me. I couldn't dodge. The boulder hit the back of my head and I blacked out.

"Are you sure that's the avatar?" Two dainty feet kicked dust. "Who is he?"

"Shut up! He may be listening." The female with the long blue skirt said.

"He's unconscious." The dainty-foot girl replied.

"Not for much longer. Those pressure points I hit could only knock him out for a short time." The barefoot girl stated. "When he wakes up he won't be able to get up. I paralyzed him for the time being. At least I hope I did, or else I killed him."

Blue-skirt girl yelled. "You killed him!"

"Only a slight possibility I did! I'm not positive I did."

"And you're not positive you didn't!"

"Ladies, ladies, ladies." Dainty-foot giggled. "There's nothing to be worried about. If he's dead, he's dead. He wasn't anything special."

"Maybe he didn't want to bend! Has that ever occurred to you?" Blue-skirt seemed irritated. I was guessing she was their leader.

"Oh!" Dainty-foot took a step back.

The girl's continued fighting until I coughed. My head throbbed and I doubt I could even sit-up. I could move, but sitting up was a different story. I ran my fingers in the dusty ground and coughed again.

Dainty-foot and bare-foot propped me up against a tree.

"So you're the supposed avatar." Blue-skirt crouched down next to me. She tilted me head upwards so we looked at each other eye-to-eye.

"Who-who are you?" My voice came out in a croaking sound. My throat burned with each word.

"Sorry how rude of me." She tucked the hair in her face behind the air. "I'm Reikko. Who are you?"

I coughed. I didn't want to speak anymore. I could taste the blood from my bloody nose dripping down the back of my throat.

"What's your name?" Bare-foot pushed my head back with her foot. "We all know you're the supposed avatar, but no offense, you are a mess." She smirked. "I mean what happened to your face?"

I remained silent.

"Well… You better answer me!" She pushed my head back farther with her foot. "Come on!"

"Jina! Stop this nonsense. He's not going to talk." Reikko pulled Barefoot, or Jina, away from me. She was grumbling the whole time about interrogation and the importance of it.

"This boy better be the one I'm looking for." I mumbled to myself. "I don't want to get involved with those freak sisters again."

I looked at him, slouched against a tree with a rope tied around his middle. That chi-blocking hadn't worn off yet. What was I going to do? I don't think I could carry him.

Now all I needed was a plan. And I was good at coming up with those. I sat down next to a tree with my legs crossed. Time to think.

The moon was almost directly above. Midnight. This was just the right time to try this plan out. I crept around the trees I was in. All I had to do was gag the person on watch, which shouldn't be too hard based on their intelligence level. Then I would get the boy and run away with him.

This wouldn't be considered kidnapping, would it? I am saving him from a bunch of sadistic teenage earthbenders. I was saving him then using him for something I needed.

I prepared myself as I entered their camp. Okay time for some fun! That's when it hit me. My plan was useless. The girls were curled up sleeping. No one was on watch. Darn it! I wanted to have some fun. I hadn't been able to practice my bending for the last few days.

Nevertheless I crept over to the boy and started cutting at the ropes. He was silent, but his eyes told me he was terrified. I continued sawing at the ropes with the dull knife blade.

"It's fine." I whispered to him. I heard one of the ropes snap. I breathed a sigh of relief, so this knife would cut. I had originally planned to burn the rope, but that would mean I had to knock-out the people holding him captive. "You're almost out."

I heard the leader girl moan. She had said her name was Reikko, or something like that. Not that it mattered. I sawed with more vigor. This had to be severed soon. I had gotten through a few of the ropes. Now all that I had l had left were his feet.

"Mmm," the girl called Jina moaned. I heard rustling and sacrificed a second to check. "Who's there?" She mumbled in a half-asleep state.

I said some things in my head and continued dragging the worthless knife up and down the bindings. Oh what I would give to burn right through it.

"Jina! Shut-up!" The girl that had no named hissed. "I'm trying to sleep."

"Why don't you shut-up and listen, Mai Lee." Her voice dripped with ice. She slowly sat up with her hands clenched into fists, so she liked her beauty sleep.

"Hmm. I can't understand idiots." She gave herself a smile and laid back down. I could feel the fear rising in my throat.

The last rope around his feet was cut and he was free. This boy was smart, or else he was still numb. He stayed low. I, on the other hand am an idiot. I stood up and walked out.

"Thank you so much girls." I laughed insanely. "I really would like to stay, but I've got to go."

I skipped over to the bushes and started to look for the boy. I admit it was stupid of me to leave him, but I really wanted to say good-bye to my good "friends."

I didn't see a trail, or anything. So maybe he'd climbed a tree.

Akira

Should I save her? I mean she did just save my life and I'm not fond of debts. Then again she could be one of those creepy girls acting like a good guy. I let myself think this over before settling on the right thing to do, save her.

I sighed and followed her. I waited for just the right moment to open up a hole in the ground, so she fell through.

"Who's there?" She tripped. "I can't see anyth…." She laughed. "'Course I can. I have light."

I was having second thoughts.

"So you're the boy that I saved." She seemed unstable. "I would really love to help you, but right now I need to know where you are." No she didn't seem unstable. She seemed strange, when she was cutting my ropes she seemed sane and now she was on the verge of total insanity.

I watched.

"Please. I don't want to turn on my light. Please just reach out and grab my wrist. You're an earthbender so you can see me. Please I'm scared."

Still I watched.

"Please come out. I know you are here. I have a superior sense of hearing. Even if you were a quiet bender I would still be able to hear you."

No. I had saved her. I would not befriend her.

"I guess I do have to turn on my light." The girl sighed and took another breath.

Light soon flooded the small area we were sharing. Great now she could see me. I ducked my face beneath my arm. The long green robes covered most of my face.

"You're him?" She asked surprised. "I was expecting someone more muscly or taller or something. Can you even bend?"

I sighed, but didn't answer.

"Okay. I guess I'll just have to come closer. The girl batted her eyelashes and smiled. "I am a people person."

"No. Just stay away." I kicked my leg upwards and a wall of rock divided us.

"You know that's not very nice. I just want to be friends."

"No."

"Please. I want a friend I can travel with." Her voice perked up. "Maybe, if you're the avatar, I can teach you to firebend. That is, if you want."

Firebending did sound interesting. I could give it a shot. I didn't doubt that I was the avatar, but I didn't think I'd be any good at it. I let the wall go back into the earth.

The girl smiled and hugged me.

'I'm Miki. What's your name?"
