A lively atmosphere encircled the tree houses once night fell and dinner was getting ready to eat.
Everyone gathered around a large rectangular table, eating quickly and happily when Jet stood up, raising his cup as he spoke.
"Today, we struck another blow against the fire nation swine," Jet stands on the table.
Everyone cheers loudly, throwing their hands in the air in support of Jet. Iskra just looked with disgust at his dirty feet that stood where they ate.
"I got a special joy from the look on one's soldiers face when the Duke dropped down on his helmet and rode him like a wild hog monkey," Jet pointed to the small man.
The Duke then climbed on the table and walked all around the food, raising his hands proudly as everyone cheered for him.
"Now, the fire nation thinks they don't have to worry about a couple of kids hiding in the trees, they're dead wrong!" Jet said fiercely but everyone cheered anyway.
"Hey Jet, nice speech," Katara compliments him as he sits next to her.
"Thanks, by the way I was really impressed with you and Aang, that was some great bending I saw out there today," Jet compliments her back.
Iskra could see brain from how far her eyes rolled back. He was clearly trying to get something out of Aang and Katara.
"Well he's great, he's the avatar," Katara smiles. "I could use some more training."
"Avatar huh? Very nice," Jet nods his head.
Sokka looks back at Iskra, silently asking if she's hearing the same thing he is. She nods her head, looking at Jet weirdly.
"So I might know a way that you and Aang can help in our struggle," Jet says smoothly.
"Unfortunately we have to leave tonight," Sokka says firmly, standing up and walking away.
"Sokka, your kidding me," Jet sighs as Iskra stands up to follow Sokka. "I needed you on an important mission tomorrow."
Sokka stops walking, turning back to face Jet and Iskra shakes her head. There's no way he's falling for his tricks, she thought.
"What mission?" Sokka asks slowly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sokka ended up going on the mission with Jet and was very excited when he approached him and no one else. When he returned though his spirit was completely destroyed. He slumped against one of the trees, sighing in defeat.
Iskra walked towards him, noticing his sad face so she sat next to him. She offered a comforting smile and he returned with a soft one.
"Hey Sokka, is Jet back?" Katara asks as she climbs down one of the trees, walking to Sokka.
"Yea he's back, but we're leaving," Sokka speaks sternly.
"What?" Aang asks quickly, standing next to Katara.
"But I made him this hat," Katara pulls a very ugly hat out from behind her back.
"Your boyfriends a thug," Sokka rolls his eyes.
"No he's not," Katara shakes her head.
"He's messed up Katara, he beat and robbed a harmless old man," Sokka explains.
Iskra's eyes widen, she knew there was something off about him. She also knew Katara won't believe Sokka.
"I want to hear Jet's side of the story," Katara crosses her arms over her chest.
