Keep the avatar safe the chief tells me. I sigh knowing part of it is I'm a firebender at least the generals are going to talk to the general in charge of the ship. I hold the avatar close to my chest as I run onto the ship.
Hours later
I sit on the bed next to Aang as he sleeps. I hear the door being forced so I get up and I bend into a crouch. The door opens. I don't relax when
I see one of my brothers
Hnyu?
Fya? He says. His eyes widen. That's the avatar I nod
Oh uh you should know those of us that are with the prince surrendered there's eight of us he says scratching his head.
What happened to him? Hnyu asks he was our medic he comes over and kneels by Aang and he feels his forehead and then he listens to his heart.
He was hit by lightning wasn't he? He asks. Fya nods.
Sokka comes in and he looks at Hnyu and he says aren't you supposed to be on deck with the others?
I came to get Fya he says. He was our medic.
Fya says in explanation oh...Sokka says I didn't know the fire nation had healers.
We're not invincible yeah I know Sokka says watching Hnyu looks at me and then back at Sokka.
Hnyu its ok Sokka isnt going to turn you in.
Turn him in? Fya! He says.
Turn him in to who? The Firelord. Oh him? Yeah I won't tell Ozai anything Sokka says.
Hnyu sighs. And he says I don't know ...
Come on Fya says remember what I showed you? He nods.
He goes over to Aang. He breathes deeply and yellow light wraps around his hands and it glows similar to water when it is used for healing.
Sokka's eyes widen.
Go on I encourage him he nods and gently places his hands onto Aang.
He closes his eyes and he says I can see his chi lines they're all messed up.
Fya puts a hand on his shoulder ..put them back together....he breathes deeply and he nods...Sokka's eyes widen mesmerized by what he sees.
Finally after about ten minutes Hnyu stops and he says the
Avatar just needs rest...he blinks and ...so do you Fya says she goes over to the burner and hands him a cup of tea here.
Thanks he says cheers...he drinks it and then he puts his head in his hands.
The door opens and the chief looks to his son what happened in here?
Nothing Dad Hnyu just wanted to say hi to Fya. Fya were you in the 41st division thats who's on deck the chief says Fya nods yes..come wiht me then and your friend too- he stops when he sees that Hnyu is sleeping. What happened? Fya and Sokka exchange a glance and then
Fya says
Hnyu is a born healer it's actually forbidden in the fire nation but I taught him in secretcy cause general Anhyu thought it would be good to have some of us that could heal...and he helped Aang.
He helped the Avatar? He asks Sokka.
Sokka nods it was kind of like when Katara heals the chief nods fine then don't wake him.
I'll send you back before dinner.
Come on now.
Fya follows Sokka and the chief to the deck where the water tribe warriors and her brothers from the 41st are waiting an older one is sitting in the center and her eyes widen.
One points to her and then everyone is quiet.
Kuzon? Fya says quietly.
Kuzon turns and his eyes widen. They weren't lying. He stands up and Fya runs to him.
She holds onto him tightly...he gently helps her sit down as she clings to him.
He gently strokes her face wiping her tears come on he says let's go eat something.
Fya nods and he grips her hand as they go to the mess together.
