So recently, we've decided to set up camp inside one of the ruined buildings. Sokka's come down with an awful cold and we're not quite sure what he has, although we assumed it was the flu.

"Here, this should bring your fever down." Katara said as she placed a damp rag on Sokka's forehead.

"You know what I love about Appa the most? His sense of humor." Sokka said tiredly.

"That's nice, I'll tell him." Katara smiled.

Appa growled.

"Classic Appa." Sokka chuckled.

"How's he doing?" Aang asked. "Not so good. Being out in that storm really did a number on him." Katara said looking at Sokka. "Yeah, and if you ask me he's a bit...loony." I looked at Sokka.

"No, thanks Mr. Penguin. I had a big breakfast." Sokka said.

"Well, more loony than usual." I sighed.

"I couldn't find any ginger root for the tea, but I found a map. There's an herbalist institute on top of that mountain. We could probably find a cure for Sokka there." Aang said, full of hope.

"Aang, he's in no condition for travel. Sokka just needs more rest. I'm sure he'll be better by tomorrow." Katara said with a cough.

"Oh, no! OH NO! The plague is starting!" I panicked.

"Not you too!" Aang whined.

"Relax, it was just a little cough. I'm fi-" And she started coughing again.

"That's how Sokka started yesterday. Now look at him! He thinks he's an earthbender!" Aang pointed.

"Take that, you rock!" Sokka yelled.

"A few more hours and you'll be talking nonsense, too." Aang sighed.

"Aang's right, Kat. We'll go find some meds, and you guys just sit tight." I told them. Aang looked toward Appa and Momo. "Keep an eye on them, guys." Appa groans and Momo squeaks.

"Haha! You guys are killing me!"

"Okay, c'mon Aang. We'd better get a move on." I tell him. Aang jumps down and starts using his airbending to speed run while I use my waterbending to glide on the ice beneath me.

(Just like Frozone!)

Aang and I zoomed right past some little building and heard some kind of horn shortly after

Aang and I zoomed right past some little building and heard some kind of horn shortly after. Maybe a shell? I have no idea, but it was pretty dang loud.

We soon made it up the mountain and into the herbalist institute.

"Hello, sorry to barge in like this, but we need some medicine for our friends. They have fevers and they were coughing, and-" Aang was cut off just as quickly as he spoke.

"Settle down, young man. Your friends are going to be fine, I've been up here for over forty years you know, used to be others but they all left years ago." The herbalist said. She walked up to a little white cat that closely resembled a ball of cotton and pet it. "Now it's just me and Miyuki."
