Chapter 8

Alright, so, it's been a few days.

We ended up going to this canyon where we met two groups, who were fighting. One thing led to another, and they almost got us killed because they wanted to eat food.

I mean... same.

Nothing really happened other than that, it was pretty boring. At least to me. I hung out with Aang while we were in the canyon, because Katara and Sokka were annoyed with each other, and I didn't want to be in between that. I also knew that the groups would bring food in, because people are ridiculous, so I thought it'd be better to just hang out with Aang and the guide.

We helped them out, Aang solved a conflict between the groups, we almost got killed. You know, the usual Monday.

Now we're all supposed to be sleeping. I'm not, because I'm pretty wide awake, so I'm just laying down, looking at the stars, just relaxing.

That was until Aang shot up gasping for air.

I quickly sit up, as Momo wakes up the other two. Sokka waves around his boomerang lazily.
"Wha- huh? Did we get captured again?" He says drowsily, his eyes barely staying open. I inwardly giggle at him. That's adorable.
"It's nothing." Aang says. "I just had a bad dream. Go back to sleep."
"Don't have to tell me twice." Sokka says, flopping back down.

Katara turns to Aang. "Are you ok?"
"I'm alright."
"You seem to be having a lot of nightmares lately." Katara states.
"If you need, you can always talk to us." I say. Katara nods in agreement.
"I think I just need some rest." He sighs, closing his eyes briefly.

"You guys wanna hear about my dream?" Sokka asks. Katara glares at him and I chuckle. "That's fine. I didn't want to talk about it anyway." He says and flips back down. I roll my eyes at his dramatics. Everyone goes back to bed and I sigh, staring up at the stars once again.

I don't know how much time has gone by, but my eyes begin to feel heavy, and I soon drift off to sleep.

"Look at those clear skies buddy!" Aang exclaims excitedly, patting Appas head. "Should be some smooth flying!"

Katara, Sokka, and I are loading our things into Appas saddle in preparation for today's flight. I drop a pack into the saddle and turn around to see Katara, turning a sack upside down, crumbs falling out and being devoured by Momo.
"We better smoothly fly ourselves to a market, because we're out of food." Katara says, climbing into the saddle."
"Wait wait- guys, this was in my dream." Sokka claims with a serious tone. "We shouldn't go to the market."
"And why not?" I ask smirking.
"Food eats people." I roll my eyes. "Also, Momo could talk." He says turning to the lemur. "You said some very hurtful things." Momo's ears droop.
I gasp. "Sokka! Look what you've done to our fur baby!" I accuse, scooping up Momo and holding him like a baby. "You've made him sad with your ridiculous claims. Momo would never say such things!" I say turning away.
"Come on (y/n), I'm just telling it like it is." He says. "Momo really hurt my feelings in my dream."
"It's ok Momo, I'll protect you." I say, hugging Momo closer. Sokka looks appalled.
"You're siding with him?!" Sokka shouts.
"Yeah, I am! And what about it?!" I shout back.
"He's a two timing backstabber (y/n)!"
"Hmm, what's that smell?" I ask. "It smells like LIES!"
Sokka gasps. "How could you do this?! To your best friend?!" He asks dramatically, smacking his hand to his chest and acting hurt.
"Who ever said we were best friends? Hm?"
"I-"
"Yeah Sokka. I don't think you've gotten a rock yet." Says Aang.
"Oop-"
"... dang. Now I'm hurt." He says, turning away.
"Don't worry Sokka, I'm sure that if you apologize to Momo you'll get one." Says Katara, trying not to laugh.
Sokka turns to look at Momo. "I'm sorry Momo."
"Hmm, I'll consider giving you a rock. I'll need 3-5 business days, and I'll get back to you." I say smiling.
Sokka looks like he's about to say something, but he's cut off by Aang who's shouting about a village.
