Journey To Another World (An Avatar The Last Airbender FanFic)

The Blue Spirit

3rd person

Ava and Sokka lay on Appa facing the sky. Ava shivers and sneezes. Both of them were wrapped in Water Tribe sleeping bags in an attempt to keep them both warm and to sweat the fever out. Katara pats a rag on Sokka's head. "This should bring your guy's fever down."

"You know what I love about Appa the most? His sense of humor." Sokka laughs out. Ava chuckles alongside him.

"That's nice. I'll tell him." Katara whispered to him in a calming manner. Appa groans loudly in response. Ava sits up laughing before it turns back into coughs. She lays back down and snuggles into the bag.

"Katara... tea please." She groans out and reaches one hand into the sky. Katara looks over at Ava with a sigh. They didn't have any tea and Katara didn't know of any leaves that could make tea. Ava would have to deal with water for now.

'I must admit when I foresaw us getting sick I didn't realize it would be this bad. You cannot even do basic functions to survive.' Azar almost scoffs at the state that 

"Who are you?" Ava questions looking around.

'I am Azar. Surely I have told you who I am.' Ava laughs.

"Heh nope. You just left me in the dark." Ava laughs. Katara looks back at her with a concerned look. Being in that storm did not do well for either of the teens. Ava almost drowned in it and was exhausted when she came out. Sokka was in the storm way longer then any of them. 

Azar allows herself to be seen by Ava. 'Is there anything I can do for you to relieve your symptoms?' Azar asks respectively. "I would love some of dad's peppermint tea? You know what I'm talking about right? The one he used to make?" Katara turns around and looks at the girl. It was not often that Ava talked about her past, and yet here she was making a request for her father's tea. Katara noted how Ava said 'used' maybe he stopped making it or maybe he was... dead.

'We do not have the materials to make the tea I am sorry.'

Aang walks over to the team with a scroll in his hands. "How are they doing?" Aang looks over to the two of them. Ava and Sokka are shivering and laughing together at Appa.

"Not so good. Being out in that storm really did a number on Sokka. And with Ava almost drowning she didn't have the strength to fight off the sickness." Katara gives a worried look to Sokka.

"I couldn't find any ginger root for the tea, but I found a map." Aang places the scroll on the ground and opens it up, "There's an herbalist institute on the top of that mountain. We could probably find a cure for Sokka there." Aang looks over to the large mountain.

"Aang, they're in no condition to travel. Sokka and Ava just need more rest. I'm sure they'll be better by tomorrow." Katara reassures him. Katara begins to cough just a little bit.

"Not you too!" Aang cries.

"Relax, it was just a little cough. I'm fine –" She starts to cough more.

"That's how Sokka started yesterday. Now look at him – he thinks he's an earthbender!" Aang leans forward.

"Take that you rock!" Sokka makes a mock earthbending move.

Ava gasps, "Sokka I didn't know you could earthbend!" Aang gets up and grabs the map from the ground.

"A few more hours and you'll be talking nonsense too. I'm going to find some medicine." Aang opens his glider and walks to the edge. A large bolt of lightning strikes through the sky Aang puts his glider away. "Uh, maybe it's safer if I go on foot." Aang looks back at Appa and Momo, "Keep an eye on 'em guys."
