"You guys are going to be done soon right? We've got a lot of ground to cover if we want to make it to Omashu today." Sokka stretched out onto the large leaf as he floated in the bank.

"What, like you're ready to go right now, naked guy?" Katara rolled her eyes continuing to practice with Aang. I practiced with them for an hour or so earlier this morning. I needed to take a break so I floated near by. Traveling could take a lot out of you.

"I can be ready in two minutes. Seriously, whenever," my brother murmured.

I closed my eyes and tilted my head back in the water, my hair floating around me. It was relaxing and after traveling so much it was well needed.

Off in the distance, we all began to hear music. Me and Sokka looked to each other, Katara and Aang did the same until the source of appeared.

"Don't fall in love with a traveling girl,"

"She'll leave you broke and broken-hearted," the lyrics worked with the rytham of the music.

Four adults appeared, two males and two females. They all looked...different to say the least. They dressed strangely and held themselves the same.

"Heh hey! River people!" One of the men pointed to us, holding a ukulele with his free hand.

"We're not river people?" I knitted my brows as Sokka flipped over into the water, loosing his leaf.

"You're not?" he seemed high or something. "Well then, what kind of people are you?"

"Just people..." Aang grinned.

"Aren't we all, brother." the strange man threw his hands in the air.

"Who are you?" Sokka emerged from the water in his undies. I chuckled to myself and rolled my eyes.

"I'm Chong, and this is my wife Lily." Chong explained, one of the females with a wrap on her head bowing. "We're nomads, happy to go wherever the wind takes us.

"You guys are nomads? That's great! I'm a nomad." Aang expresses excitedly.

"Hey me too," Chong smiles ear to ear. There was something up with this guy.

"I know. You just said that." Aang mumbled.

"Oh." Chong rubbed the back of his neck nervously. "Nice underwear." he got off the subject pointing to Sokka in the water. I begun laughing so hard I had to hold my stomach as Sokka scurried off.

I sat on the ground as I was making a satchel to carry while zuko was... Somewhere... And iroh was staring at some flower?

Zuko came out of the woods frustrated and I raised an eye brow as I was weaving the flowers into the out line of the bags flap over the top.

"I didn't find anything to eat," zuko stumbled.

"I can't live like this! I wasn't meant to be a fugitive!" He threw his hands up whining and I smirked smugly.

"This is impossible!"

"Tragic," I rested my chin on my fist grinning at him.

Before zhao, me and my sister use to be street rats after our village burnt down, I use to be a thief or we would scam people easily. This is no different and not that hard, sorry princey prince.

"Uncle... What are you doing?" Zuko noticed iroh deeply staring at the flower.

"He's been like that all day," I shrugged standing up.

"Your looking at the rare white dragon bush, it's leafs make a tea so delicious it's heart breaking," iroh said in awe at the bush as zuko and I looked over his shoulders confused.
