The water was cold. Wait, no, COLD is an understatment. The moment my skin made contact with the water, it felt like tiny daggers were stabbing at me. I shivered, my teeth chattering, reminding myself that this was to "prove my innocence" or whatever.
I spun the water around me, creating a whirlpool of sorts, and propelled myself to the surface. As I ascended, I used all my strength to control as much of the ocean as possible.
Shooting out of the cold like a bullet, I pulled myself up higher on a gigantic wave. Little floating bits of water caught the sunlight and turned the sky into a freezing cold disco party. I could see Appa, but I was too far away to see the dumbfounded looks on their faces.
I glided over on my wave, hopping clumsily onto the bison before promptly collapsing on the floor.
"WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?" "HoLy cRaP WhAaA-" "Percy... HOW?" The group exclaimed in unison. I groaned and turned on my side, clutching my head. Everything hurt, and I was exhausted.
"Ughhh... I might have pushed myself a little bit too far." I mumbled, struggling to stay concious. I saw Katara rush over to me before I gave in to the darkness. I might've been hallucinating, but I'm pretty sure her hands were glowing.

When I woke up, it was sunrise, and we were on the ground again. I yawned and stretched, feeling much more energized. Katara walked into my tent, smiling slightly when she saw I was looking better.
"Good, you're up." she said, handing me a piece of meat. "Now eat up - we've got a lot to do."
"Thanks." I replied, taking a huge chunk out it. The meat tasted kind of like chicken or pork - but strangely also BOTH - and was seemingly a leg of some kind.
She started to exit the tent before turning around abruptly. "Oh, and before I go, you are totally teaching me how to do that big rainbow thing." I grinned back, chuckling.
"Only if you teach me how to make water change phases like that!" I responded, remembering how she pinned Salty Fire Guy with ice spikes. That was a really smart move that I'd never even considered before.
"Deal." We shook hands, and I must admit that I did check to see if they were glowing. Pretty sure it was just me.
