Avatar: Last Airbender - Fugitive RIn (Earth) ~FINISHED~

The Chase Is On!

"Water... Earth... Fire... Air..." Katara voices over as the benders demonstrate as she talks. "My grandmother used to tell me stories about the old days, a time of peace when the Avatar kept the balance between the Water Tribes, Earth Kingdom, Fire Nation, and Air Nomads. But that all changed when the Fire Nation attacked." It journeys into the map showing the world and closes in on a bender displaying all the elements. "Only the Avatar mastered all four elements. Only he could stop the ruthless firebenders. But when the world needed him most, he vanished." He disappears from sight. "A hundred years have passed and the Fire Nation is nearing victory in the war. Two years ago, my father and the men of my tribe journeyed to the Earth Kingdom to help fight against the Fire Nation, leaving me and my brother to look after our tribe." It shows the Water Tribe men on their boats and Katara hugging her older brother Sokka holding up a lantern. "Some people believe that the Avatar was never reborn into the Air Nomads and that the cycle is broken, but I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow the Avatar will return to save the world."

The Chase Is On!

The sun begins to set over a large range of hills with trees and a creek spread out before them with Appa and the gang, now including Toph sit in a dried up section of the creek. There is a bunch of white fur around Appa's feet, Aang stands on top of Appa in the saddle and passes a sleeping bag to Sokka. Katara walks around Appa's head to the same side as the boys, with Toph left of them staring and wiggling her feet in Appa's shedded fur. "Hey, you guys picked a great campsite," Toph comments as she wiggles her feet again in the pile of white fur. "The grass is so soft."

"That's not grass. Appa's shedding." Sokka corrects her and Katara lifts her right foot out of the fur and balances herself on her left foot.

"Oh, gross!" Katara cries out in displeasure.

"That's not gross; it's just a part of spring." Aang reasons still atop of Appa, a blue bird lands gracefully onto his head and a yellow butterfly flutters by his right ear which Momo jumps up in an attempts to snatch it. "You know, rebirth, flowers blooming, and Appa gets a new coat!" He cheers.

"Ah, the beauty of spring." Katara sighs as Appa sticks his tongue out to reveal it's covered in fur, he sneezes blowing fur everywhere. "Stop, Appa, stop!" She cries out and coughs due to the fur, she waves her arms to stop Appa from covering her hair even more. Over with the boys, Sokka kneels down onto the ground and rubs the white fur onto his head.

"It's not that bad, Katara," Sokka says and stands to reveal he piled the white fur on his head to form a tall pillar of hair. "It makes a great wig!" He jokes as Aang drops down from atop Appa, he arranges the fur on his face to form a large moustache and beard.

"And a great beard!" Aang jokes and the boys laugh at one another, Katara looks at them not smiling and begins wiping the fur off of her sleeve.

"I'm just glad we finally have another girl in the group because you two are disgusting," Katara responds unamused. Aang and Sokka both are slightly hunched over with one arm over the other's shoulder.

"Excuse me," Toph says as she walks between the two boys breaking them apart. "Does anyone have a razor... " She lifts up both her arms to reveal a mass of white fur emerging out of both her sleeves, under her arms. "...because I've got some hairy pits!" She jokes, the three of them all laugh until Aang gives one of his powerful airbending sneezes, thrusting him backwards into Appa's leg then falls face down onto the ground. He lifts his head to reveal his beard and mustache are gone but he now has a large mass of fur sticking jaggedly up on his head. All three of them begin laughing again, Katara's look of disgust changes quickly into joy and laughs along with the others.
