A New Teacher

[historyman12]

Zhou stepped up from his chair and shook Aang's hand. "Perhaps...I judged you too early,"

"No kidding," Katara muttered

Zhou whirled around and asked "What was that?"

"Nothing, " KAtara said with her face kept absolutely straight.

"of course" Zhou said and turned around, "Well, Mr. Avatar, it is good to meet you,"

Aang, of course, was tacken aback by Zhou's sudden change in attitudes. "Um, hi," Aang stammered.


"You're confused aren't you?" asked Zhou

"Well, kind of, yeah," Aang replied

"Well, it's a long story and we haven't time if I'm to teach you Earthbending. Come along, into the training grounds."

"Actually, Mr. Zhou, we train-"

"Where?"

"We train wherever we land on Appa."

"Where is Appa?"

"Appa's not a where, it's my flying bison?"

"Last I checked, I do not beleive Bison can fly" Zhou replied, raising his eyebrow.

"I'll show you," Aang said, dashing off towards Appa

Aang and Katara turned around and walked towards where Aang had dashed, and Zhou just began to walk after the two water tribe natives.

Upon reaching Appa ZHou stood where he was, stone-faced, and said "Well, you weren't lying after all."

"Want to get on and go?" asked Aang

'Well, if we must, let's leave"


AND THAT'S IT FOR NOW

Azula began to ride off, but Zuko wasn't sure if his attempts to get Song off of the stilettos would alert her. Before Zuko was sure Azula had left the house collapsed and Song screamed as it fell. As Azula didn't come back Zuko was sure Azula was out of sight and earshot, and sprinted towards Song's collapsed house. He began furiously attempting to rip the fallen beams of wood, whispering "be alive, be alive" as he tore through the beams. Slowly the stack over Song dissipated, and he was left with only two beams blocking Song from being able to get out. Song was clearly injured as she wasn't attempting to get out of the smoldering heap of wood. With all his strength, and even more adrenaline he yanked one beam up off of her, and slid Song below the other beam. He lifted her up, and held her in his arms as he hurried through the town. Song looked up, unsure of what had happened and asked asked, "L-Li? What are you doing here?"

Zuko looked down at her and said "Well, I-I was..just passing through" It wasn't really a lie, Zuko thought, as he was just heading through the town. He arrived at a building that he thought looked somewhat important, hoping it to be a doctor or some other important person who could help's house. He, for lack of something else to do to open the door, kicked it. The door was locked , but the loud "thud" had caused someone to come to the door.

Unsurprisingly, the sight of a man with a giant scar holding an unconscious girl startled the man. "Well, uh, what-what is it you want? I'm-I'm a doctor, if that's what you need."

Zuko silently sighed in relief and nodded, entering the house

"Well, erm, what happened to her?

"Her house it...burned down.She's burned"

"I see, I'll keep her here. You go back to your house."

"hm." Zuko said, in place of "yes" or something else that effect and left the building.

ohhh


correct the spelling, right?


either bloody way:




Aang turned around on Appa and asked, "Guys, we've ben flying for a little while now, should we land? I think I see a village down there." He pointed towards the ground where a village was barely visible.'

Sokka looked ahead andsquitnedx and, once he found the vilalge said "I think we should land. After all we are running out of meat."

KAtara turned around, "Sokka, we have two more days of meat left."

"Yes, but maybe we'll have our meat suddenly gone rotten, or we'll head over the ocean and get lost. Just ask Momo, he wants meat, right Momo"

"Chirrup?" Momo said

"Right. See, Momo's a meat lover."

"Uh-huh, and Appa's a vegetable lover, right Appa?"

"Mmph." appa replied

"See? That was a meat chant, not a vegetable chant. Let's top. The animals want to, so we have to."

"Okay," Aang said cheerily "We'll land"

Sokka silently celebrated about being able to land in the village. Appa slowly sailed down towards the village and when he landed they entered the small village to a wave of people coming at them demandingthat he come see some burned girl and heal her. While Aang had no idea why they thought he could heal people he went along with them to the house, along with Sokka toph, Zhou and, of course, Katara. When they reachd the house and were led to the girl, in something of a Hanbok with large, somewhat sad, eyes. Aang stepped back and put Katara in the front. KAtara bent down and comanded Aang and Sokka to please the leave the room as she was burned on her chest and back. Aang left the room with only an inquisitive look on his face, while Sokka slowly trudged out. After Katara had done her best healing the girl she put her hanbok back on and called for Sokka and Aang to come back in.The girl stirred and woke up, presumably by the healing and asked "Who are you? And why are you here?"

Katara looked around at Aang SOkka and Toph, with sokka shrugging his shoulders pointing towards Katara, as if to say "well, you tell her" and KAtara aswered "I'm Katara and that's Aang, the avatar, Aang, and those are his frineds."

"We've got names," Toph and Sokka said in unison.

Aang stepped up, but before he could say anything KAtara asked, "How'd you get here?"

"Well, this firebending girl who bent blue fire and this other girl, with big hair, and had these stilletos, and there were two others, one was a girl wit ha briad, and the other, I'd seen him before, was there, he didn't do much then, but then, the firebender burned my house down, and the boy, his name is Li, but they called him Zuko, and he had a big scar on his eye rescued me."

''Zu-?!'' Sokka began to ask before Katara kicked him.

"Wh-what?" Katara asked.

"Nothing," Sokka said quickly.


THIS WAS A CHAPTER. NOW APPLAUD DAMNIT

thanks, it'll take awhile for me to update since I have writer's block.

[historyman12]

Zuko hurried his ostrich horse along believing that he was finally near Azula judging fro the amount of Ostrich horse tacks there were, and how they weren't worn away. He'd gone after the three all night and wasn't eager to spend much more time without sleep. HE continued squinting into the horizon, hoping each time to see their silhouettes on the horizon, certainly a welcome sight. maybe it's just because I;m tired, so I can't see well Zuko reasoned each time. After several tries he finally saw the group on the horizon. Ah, spirits, you are on my side he thought as he looked at the sky. He still hurried his ostrich horse so he wouldn't lose sight of his three "friends". After Zuko's eternally hurried Ostrich horse entered earshot he shouted at Azula, Mai and Ty Lee who turned around, curious as to who made the sound and discovered Zuko there who simply nodded, attempting to conceal his exhaustion. Azula just looked him and smirked, "What took you so long, Zuzu?"

Zuko only grunted and demanded that they make camp as he had bee going all night based on Ostrich horse tracks.


Azula only replied "We've been going all night too," as she turned her ostrich horse and waved her hand dismissively"

"It's true," Mai said and turned her ostrich horse, Ty Lee following suit.

so that's why she hasn't said anything happy Zuko thought referencing Ty Lee as he turned his ostrich horse around and set off after Azula.


The scene on Appa involved a good deal more talking then Zuko's situation.

"I still refuse to believe Zuko's good. No way that happened. No earthly way." Sokka said

"But why would he help Song then?" Katara replied

"To fool her. Zuko's smart like that. How about you Zhou?"

Shih merely shrugged since he'd have no way of knowing about Zuko's alignments.

"No matter about him, he's only been here 3 days and-"

"Then why'd you ask him?" Katara asked cockily

"Because, well, if he had any first impressions."

"Of course"

"Well you're just a little prodigy there aren't you? You've never made a mistake n your whole damned life. At least none that you'd admit anyway."

"Well you and your-"

"Hey, look, that;s a nice river down there let's look at it closer." Aang desperately interrupted "Come on, boy, get down there."

Appa obeyed and steered downward, oblivious to the conflict growing on his back and headed to the river.



TEH END

[Kohana]

Good chapter. Update soon!!

[historyman12]

Aang stepped off Appa and began telling Katara and Sokka about just how pretty the river was and how fst it was flowing, and maybe he and Katara could try and waterbend some of it the other way or something. His attempts to derail the conflict between Sokka and Katara were fruitless, until Momo intervened, flying across Katara and Sokka's faces with glee; distracting them both long enough so as to derail the conflict. Momo flew toward Aang landing on his shoulder as a parrot would be on a pirate's shoulder.

"Thanks, buddy," Aang whispered to Momo, who was still clueless as to what he had done.

gah! i posted that? XD sorry. lol, well here's what I WOULD HAVE put in that chapter.

"Come on, Zuko, there's a river ahead. Don't want to die of thirst, do we?" Azula said.

"mnf." Zuko replied and the 4 man caravan continued inching towards the water source.

The 4 finally came through the gathering of trees and arrived at the river. However, the found themselves unlike able to drink just yet, as, out of the corner of eye, Azula spotted the Avatar and his friends out of the corner of her eye. The Avatar and his friends were apparently dancing, or something, as they were all waving their arms around. She shrugged and turned towards them, launching a fire blast, which Aang luckily heard; he whizzed around and redirected it into the sky. Sokka chucked his boomerang at Azula's forces, who quickly moblized into a “v” shape, moving towards the group of friends. Zhou lifted a boulder out of the ground and kicked it at Azula, who fell backwards and then rolled forwards again. Zuko launched a few fire attacks at Aang who stopped them with water from the river. Katara lifted up as much of the water from the river as possible and attempted to drop it on Azula and her cohorts. Azula and Zuko leaned back and launched forward, putting as much fire as they could at the water, which fell onto the ground on the other side of the river. Mai threw a stiletto at Aang, which Sokka knocked out of the air with his boomerang. His boomerang fell after the contact, and Sokka charged forward to retrieve it. Zuko at that same time moved up so he could attack the group more accurately. The two grabbed each other by the shoulders and went at it like two giants. Zuko pushed Sokka backwards, as no one in Aang's group, save Zhou, could stand up against Zuko for long. Sokka broke free of Zuko's grip, and Zhou punched several rocks at the group. Ty Lee lept up at Sokka and Zhou, who were standing on the groups left flank. Zhou lifted up a small thing of rocks about the size of Ty Lee's ankles, and brought it towards him to knock Ty Lee to the ground. She fell but quickly cartwheeled up and hit Zhou's arm and blocked the chi flow. Zhou grunted in pain and Sokka was able to hit Ty Lee on the back with his club. Ty Lee spun and his his cartoid artery on hsi neck, dazing him. Zhou was able to land a quick elbow with his good arm followed by a headbutt that stunned her. She lept away, and landed in a knelt position. Sokka was losing conciousness and Zhou attempted to rememdy that by slapping across the face. Azula and her gang left, leavign Aang and his friends alone, nervous, and still battle ready.







TEH END OF THE BATTLY CHAPTER. YES THAT IS MY OWN WORD BATTLY IS. YES.
