Calypso-Avatar The Last Air bender (Being heavily edited! Finally right?)

1.11 Siege the North (Scene 1)

AN: I don't know if I ever mentioned this before, but I imagine Gumi to be more of a 'Toothless' kind of dragon, only much bigger, rather than the traditional ones in the show. I understand that might be harder for some people to visualize though, so feel free to imagine Gumi however you want! 

"Nice try, Pupil Sangok. A couple more years and you might be ready to fight a sea sponge." Master Pakku snaps as the student struggles against the icy trap Katara had trapped him in. With a sigh and a motion, Master Pakku waves his hand, freeing the poor boy.

"Would anyone care for a rematch with Katara?" He looks to the group of boys, all well over the age of 18, quivering in their boots. 

"I will!" It's Asha who steps forward, Katara laughing as they do. This would be their fifth rematch. So far, both girls have won two battles. 

"Very well, then. Onsra Asha, Pupil Katara... Begin!" Master Pakku looks to each girl as he says their name, both glaring at each other. 

Asha is first to move. She runs to Katara, bending a long whip of water to her side, Katara preparing herself and an ice sheet in front of her in defense of this. Yet, Asha predicted this, jumping on top of the sheet, only to jump again, gaining double the height with a little air bending. Katara looks up to her in shock, then changes it to a smirk as she bends a loop for the girl to fall to. The air bender stays on two feet as she enters, sliding down and around with ease.  Using the water whip, Asha snaps at Katara's feet, making her stumble back. 

It's as the two run to a fountain on either side, the battle comes to a close.  Katara using the same trick as the one she used fighting Sangok and Asha locking her feet, hands and neck in a handcuff like structure, rendering both unable to bend resulting in a tie.  Pakku unfreezes the water, freeing them both as the girls laugh at their fall.

"Very good, girls. Katara, you have advanced more quickly than almost every student I have trained. You have proven that with fierce determination, passion and hard work you can accomplish anything. Raw talent alone is not enough."  With the last part, he looks over to Aang who is playing with Momo. 

"Pupil Aang!" Said boy shoots up, looking over to the trio, carefully prying Momo from his head.

"Yes, Master Pakku?" 

"Care to step into the sparring circle? I figure since you've found time to play with house pets you must have already mastered water bending."  

Aang quickly air bends himself to his feet. "I wouldn't say mastered, but check this out!"  

The watch as Aang covers himself in snow, making him look like a traditional snowman. Only to fall as Momo pounces on him.  

Katara and Master Pakku glare at Asha as she laughs at her fellow air bender, Pakku shaking his head in disgust.

"The day we have feared for so long has arrived. The Fire Nation is on our doorstep. It is with great sadness I call my family here before me, knowing well that some of these faces are about to vanish from our tribe. But they will never vanish from our hearts. Now, as we approach the battle for our existence, I call upon the great spirits! Spirit of the Ocean! Spirit of the Moon! Be with us!  I'm going to need volunteers for a dangerous mission." Chief Arnook stood at the front.

Word had gotten back from Sokka and Princess Yue that the fire nation were closing in, and fast. The chief calling a meeting almost immediately, most likely to gather fighters for the incoming battle.

"Count me in." Sokka stands up, Katara looking to him with shock. 

"Sokka!" 

"Me too!" Asha stands next to Sokka, Aang immediately trying to yank her back down. But this was the hill she was going to (Hopefully not) die on. She owed this kingdom so much, and if it meant fighting for them she would.
