Set at Air Temple Island.
No pov.
It was a fairly quiet afternoon/evening the temple.
Opal had been in the middle of her training and was taking a break. She walked out to the spinning gates, to see Jinora, her nose buried in an old airbending scroll, seemingly ignoring her siblings bossing around new recruits only a few feet away.
"Hey Jinora," Opal said casually. Jinora looked up. "Oh Hey Opal I didn't see you there." She smiled and set the
scroll down next to her.
"What'cha reading?" Opal peeked over at the scroll, now rolled up next to Jinoras hand. She picked it up. "I decided to read up on the ancient ability of flight." Opal raised her eyebrows.
"You mean that thing Zaheer mastered?" Jinora nodded. "It says you have to let go of all you worldly possessions and desires in order to unlock it."
Opal suddenly groaned loudly. "What is up with everything and having to "Let go of your worldly possessions or whatever?" Opal threw her hands up. "I mean in order for your grandad to unlock the Avatar State he had to "let go" and all that stuff."
Jinora laughed. "Well I guess that's how people connect to their inner spirit and are able to do all of that." She shrugged.
"Well why are you studying it their you have to go through all that."
Jinora picked up the scroll. "I want to figure out if there's another way to master it WITHOUT going through all "that stuff."
Opal rolled her eyes. "Anyway new subject. You used to the arrows yet miss "Airbending Master"?" Jinoras hair had now begun to grow back after she had got her tattoos and she was beginning to resemble her normal self.
Jinora shrugged. "I guess it's not that weird anymore now that my hair is growing back. But I'm still not used to the whole "Airbending master" stuff."
"Hmm" Opal nodded. "Well," she stood up. "I should get back to practicing and stuff."
"See you at dinner Jinora." Opal waved and walked off.
Jinora stood up and stretched. She took the scroll and rolled it back up.
She headed towards the library.
She walked past endless shelves of books, before she passed the place where she had gotten the scroll she was reading from. She placed it back and began searching for another.
"Hmm." She ran her fingers across the books on the next shelf. "History of airbending." She read aloud. She picked it out and carried it while she kept looking. "100 ancient complicated airbending tricks." She picked it up.
She picked up about five more books and two scrolls before she carefully left the library.
She slowly walked to her room before she knocked into Kai, all of the books and her falling on the floor. "Oh, sorry Jinora." He helped her up. "Oh H-hey Kai." She rubbed her arm.
She bent down to pick up the books. "Let me help." He said.
She grinned. "Thanks."
He helped her carry them to her room and onto her desk.
"What do you need all these books for?" He asked, reading over the titles of the books. She took the book from his hands. "Important airbending master studying." She said. He raised his eyebrow. "Real smooth Jinora."
She rolled her eyes. "It's just old airbending tricks and skills."
He nodded. "Well I'll leave you to it." He left her room.
Jinora sighed, sat down and started reading.
Hours later...
She had finished six of the books and was almost done with the last.
Meelo walked in.
He tapped her. "Time for dinner Jinora." She stood up and stretched out. "Thanks, I'll be out in a bit." He nodded and left.
She put down the book and headed toward the dining hall.
After dinner she was back in her room, finishing the last scroll. She closed it and rubbed her eyes. She groaned. "Ugh, this is not giving me anything!" She rubbed her temples.
She got up and left her room. She walked in the kitchen and grabbed out her mothers recipe for raspberry tea out of the cabinet.
She pulled out a box of raspberries, a box of green tea and a bag of sugar. She pulled a chair next to the stove and began to read the recipe card.
Opal walked into the kitchen.
"What'cha doing?" She asked. "Making tea."
"Can I help?" Jinora nodded.
Opal read the recipe and washed off the raspberries. Jinora put them in the pot along with the tea bags and sugar.
Jinora stirred while Opal got cups.
"So how did the reading go?"
"Ugh, terrible. Those books had nothing helpful."
"Nothing?" Jinora shook her head. "Mostly just stuff I already know." Opal tapped her chin in thought. "Maybe you should ask you dad."
"Hmm. I never thought about that." Jinora strained the tea into a jug. "I'll ask him about it tomorrow. Thanks for helping with the tea." Opal grinned. "No problem."
Jinora poured them both a cup and they headed back to their rooms. "Night Jinora." She said, "Night Opal." Jinora went back to her room.
She sat on her bed and drank her tea. She yawned and got under her covers.
She turned off the light and fell asleep.
