Appa is flying slowly through the open sky with lots of clouds over a river valley. While he's flying, Aang is on his head leaning back and enjoying himself while he has a reed in his mouth while Laphicet and Katara are looking over Appa's side while stretching out on their stomachs while Velvet looks at a map and Sokka is cutting wood.
"Those clouds look so soft, don't they?" Katara asked.
"Yeah. Like you can just jump down and land in a big, soft cottony heap." Laphicet said.
"You two should give it a try." Sokka said.
"You're hilarious." Katara said sarcastically.
"Maybe I should throw you into the clouds and we'll see if you can land there." Velvet said.
"No thank you." Sokka said quickly.
"Think the clouds have any shapes?" Katara asked.
"Maybe. I think I can see..." Laphicet was cut off as he falls off of Appa. "AAAAAAHHHHH!" Laphicet screamed as he falls into the clouds and everyone looks over the side of Appa as Laphicet plunges into a cloud.
"Laphi!" Velvet shouted.
"He can't fly!" Sokka said.
"I got this!" Aang said as he opens his glider and dives after Laphicet.
Ten seconds later Aang and Laphicet get back on Appa and they are both soaking wet.
"Are you alright, Laphicet?" Sokka asked.
"Yes I am." Laphicet answered.
"How did you two get wet?" Sokka asked.
"Turns out the clouds are made of water." Laphicet answered as Aang Airbends to dry himself and Laphicet.
"At least you're okay." Katara said.
"Yeah. Thanks, Aang." Laphicet said.
"No problem." Aang said
"Don't scare me like that!" Velvet said both serious and worried. "You could have died!"
"Sorry, but it was an accident..." Laphicet said feeling guilty.
"Promise me that you will be more careful, I can't bare with you gone again." Velvet said.
"I promise." The younger brother said and Velvet let out a sigh of relief before going back to what she was doing.
"She really care about you." Katara said which made Laphicet sigh.
"She's been overprotective since what happened, I'm not the sick boy I was any more." Laphicet explained. "I just want her to be the fearless warrior who freed me from the light of destruction."
"Sokka was and still are overprotective since we began our journey but not as much as Velvet." Katara said.
"I always do what she says. There was this time when Velvet was sleeping and I snuck out. A day earlier, I didn't stay in bed and I was working on copying a book to trade something to give her." Laphicet told her. "When I traded, I wanted so deep down wanted to go to the cape we used to go and do stuff together."
"Like what?" Katara asked.
"Picking flowers for Celica's and our parents' graves, fishing and watching the ocean waves. Velvet would hunt there for prickle boars. I had just sit down not far from the village gate to rest when Velvet came and she did what she did now, but she forgive me and she took the guilt instead." Laphicet continued. "We got to the peek and after a while we got attacked by a daemon and that was when I gave her the comb. It was the last thing I remembered before going unconscious." Katara looked sadly away.
