The legend of Korra: The Sansar Returns

Chapter 7

I immediately opened, looking around I was in some type of dream world. I was surrounded in a purple light, staring at an image of an earthbending female engulfed in a soft blue light.  

"Who are you?" 

"You do not know who I am?" 

"No I do not." I answered.

It ripples to another image, this time a male waterbender, "In order to remember, you must make a connection with your Sansar Spirit." It then ripples to a female airbender, "If you don't, darkness will engulf the world. You will die, and ours including the era of the Avatar will end." 

"How do I regain my connection?" I asked.

It ripples finally to a male firebender, "You must go back. Return to the beginning. Find the fox spirit." 

The image dissipates, just then I saw the fox. It's tail dissolving into nine. It then scampers away leaving me in a slight daze. I then chase it until coming to a mound. On top the mound was a glowing wisteria tree. It's petals shimmering like the stars above. Under the tree was a girl about my age. She wore a beautiful blue gown, her hair was up in a half bun while the rest hang down like soft silk. 

"Are you the fox spirit?" I asked.

"No, but I can help you find her." she answered, "My name is Aya, and I will show you how I became the first Sansar."

Aya hummed to herself as she cupped her chin in contemplation. She looked at the sculpture further, narrowing her eyes. Something's missing but she couldn't put her finger on it. 

"Whacha working on?" asked a beautiful fair-skinned woman with white blonde hair that is usually tied in a ponytail, secured with red ribbons and golden yellow eyes and wears a long flowing red and white kimono. Her voice causing Aya to accidently tip the sculpture over, thankfully she catches it right on time.      

"Kazuya, don't scare me like that."

 Kazuya laughed, "Sorry, I just came over here to tell you that we're running out of jasmine. Could you please get some?"

"Can Aye-aye do it?" 

"Aye-aye is busy guarding the oasis." Kazuya said, she then clasps her hands, "Please?" 

Aya turns to look into Kazuya's soulful eyes. Aya sighs and slouches defeated, "Fine. But it's only because you're my sister." 

Aya lived in the spirit oasis all her life. Though she is the only human in a mostly spirit environment, the spirits treated her like she was apart of their own. 

"And where do you think you're going Princess Aya?" Aye-Aye asked. 

Aya sighed, "I'm going out for a little while, I'll be back before you know it." 

"B-But you can't! There have been sightings of humans lately. Who knows what they'll do to you?"  

"Will you relax?" Kazuya chimed in approaching them, "Aya will be fine. Besides I asked her to go over Xia Bau's grove. It's not to far from here."  

"I don't like the idea, but alright." Aye-Aye agreed, "A-And make sure to use your elements for defense. And where's your mask?" 

"Got it." Aya said showing a wooden white and red fox mask in her hands. She puts it on her face, "Okay, wish me luck." she said as she leaps in the air, jumping from tree to tree. She found the grove that Kazuya told her to go to a few miles away from the oasis. Beautiful jasmine flowers dances in the wind under large trees. As she gotten her fill she looked over onto the hillside over the horizon. Aya heard stories about humans living in mammoth beasts called Lion Turtles. Humans in her view was nothing more than selfish, destructive, and fools who doesn't respect nature or spirits. Though, she never seen one in person, but still. As she was on the path to go home, she heard rustling in the bushes. Suddenly stumbles out a human. A male human at that. His appearance was haggard, covered in dirt and having dark circles under his eyes from a lack of sleep. 

She slowly walks up to him, hoping that he was dead. Suddenly he opens his eyes and widens them seeing her.

"Get away!" he cried punching a ball of fire.

Aya backflips dodging his fire, then manipulating a stream of water from her waterskin, she directs it after him and dashes off.

"You saw a human?" Kazuya asked.

"I knew it! Did you use your elements as I instructed you too?" Aye-Aye asked.

"I-I did." Aya answered.

"What does he look like? Did he had pointed teeth? Or horns?" Kazuya questioned further.

"Well he looked......strange." 

"I knew that too--hold on." he then disappears. 

Aya and Kazuya rush towards the entrance seeing Aye-Aye blocking passage of none other than the human Aya met yesterday.
