"Those clouds look so soft , don't they ?Like you just jump down and land on a big, soft cottony heap ?" Katara says laying down on her stomach looking towards the ground in a kind of daze .
"Maybe you should give it a try," Sokka suggests sarcastically.
I roll my eyes and punch him in the arm. My brother !
"You're hilarious," Katara remarks annoyed and with a roll of her eyes .
"I'll try it !" Aang shousts excitedly from Appas head .
Suddenly Aang jumps off Appas head and goes flying into the clouds with his staff while laughing .We look over the saddle and he's gone .
We start to look around but dont see him until we can hear a swoosh of air behind us and something plops onto the saddle .
Me , Sokka and Katara turns to see smiling Aang soaked with water .
"Turns out ,clouds are made of water," Aang smiles as he puts his hands together and a ball of air surrounde him and the water disappeare. We all smile .
I look ahead of us to see something weird in the landscape.Near some mountains and a river everything's just black .
"What is that ?" I ask crawling out of my spot and to the edge of the saddle and look at the weird area .
Everyone comes behind me and looks .
"It's like a scar," Sokka comments.
Aang jumps ahead of me onto Appas head and takes the reins .We land only minutes later in a burnt forest .
"Listen .Its so quiet .There's no life anywhere," Sokka says sadly as we all jump off Appa .
Aang walks ahead and us and looke upset .
"Aang? Are you okay ?" Katara asked.
He doesn't answer .I look around .All around us is dead, burnt tree stumps .
I look at Sokka who's kneeling on the ground looking at something .
I get down with him and see it .There's human footprints with animal .It could only one thing .The Fire Nation was here .
"Fire Nation ! Those evil savages make me sick !They have no respect for-," Sokka yells angrily before Katara cuts him off .
"Shh," katara says putting her finger over her mouth .
Sokka gets up quickly as did I .
"What ? I am not aloud to be mad?! " Sokka whispers still mad.
Katara points towards Aang .I looks over to see Aang sitting on the ground with the ash of the forest falling through his fingers .
"Why would anyone do this ? How could I let this happen ?" Aang asks sadly almost on the brink of tears .
I walk slowly over to him .
"Aang ,you didn't let this happen .It has nothing to do with you," I try and explain as I sit down next to him .
"Yes , it dose .Its the Avatars job to protect nature .But I don't know to do my job," Aang fights moping .
I wrap my arm around him in a sisterly way.
"Thats why we are going to the North Pole.To find you a teacher," I say with a small smile .
"Yeah . A waterbending teacher .But there's no one that can teach me to be the Avatar .Monk Gyatso said that Avatar Roku would help me," Aang explains confused.
