Book 1: Water (Sokka X Reader Love Story)

Book 1 : Chapter 6: Fire Nation, Here We Come (Yee-Haw)

(Y/n) sighed. It was another long night speculating about her Fire Nation parents and she hadn't had any other visions about her past. It was only yesterday that Sokka and Katara had been taken and returned from the spirit world, and she hadn't gotten a wink of sleep. She heard Aang get up—and looking through her lashes, she made out that he was sneaking to Appa.

Sokka stirred awake when Appa growled lowly. (Y/n) shared her suspicions with him that Aang might attempt to leave without them, and they woke up Katara before treading off into the night.

Aang whispered to Appa. "Look, I'm sorry, but Katara, (Y/n) and Sokka aren't coming to the Fire Nation with us. If they got hurt, I'd never forgive myself. So get your big butt off the ground and let's go!"

Sokka grinned. "I think his big butt is trying to tell you something."

Aang swiveled, face contorted in horror. Katara said, "Please don't go, Aang. The world can't afford to lose you to the Fire Nation. Neither can I."

"But I have to talk to Avatar Roku to find out what my vision means. I need to get to the Fire Temple before the sun sets on the Solstice. That's today."

When he jumped ontp Appa's back, he shrieked as he came face to face with a terrifyingly serious (Y/n) who had somehow gotten up there without him noticing in a split second. Even Sokka and Katara were surprised as they swung around to find out she wasn't beside them after all.

(Y/n) poked a finger at his chest. "We're not letting you go into the Fire Nation, Aang."

Sokka added, "At least not without your friends. We got your back."

***

(Y/n) strongly trusted her instincts because they knew things she would've never known in her previous world. For example, she knew exactly when Sokka would try to sneak up on her and she would ruin his plans by quietly sneaking up on him, or when Momo tried stealing her food.

Or when someone was on their trail.

It was a pull at her gut that sounded off alarms and sent her head aching. So when she looked to the side of the saddle of a speeding Appa, she immediately spotted the iron vessel of a certain banished Fire Prince.

Aw, man.

"Aang!" (Y/n) called out and pointed at the ship. "We got trouble."

Sokka yelped as he looked over the side. "Yeah, and it's gaining fast!"

A catapult was being loaded and (Y/n) made them all go to the corner of the saddle. Katara shouted, "Fire ball!"

"I'm on it!" Aang pulled hard on Appa's reins, who swerved just in time for the fiery ball to sail over their heads.

They all covered their nose at the thick, smoky stench. (Y/n) growled as she risked taking a look over the side again. Her senses came alive and she felt something worse. Maybe because she had watched the TV show, but it was then she realized that they were approaching the Fire Nation territory. "We have to get out of Zuko's range before he shoots another hot stinker at us!"

"Can't you make Appa go any faster?"

"Yeah, but there's just one little problem."

The fucking blockade of Fire Nation ships.

A double line of Fire Nation war ships stretched to the horizon on the ocean. It was deadly and they were going to die. (Y/n) didn't want to die being shot out of the sky. She wanted to be assassinated by a mysterious, elite group that wanted power and used her as a message.

Aang considered. "If we fly north we can go around the Fire Nation ships and avoid the blockade. It's the only way."

"There's no time." Katara fidgeted.
