Part 5 (The Storm & The Blue Spirit)

You were jolted awake by a pressure on your stomach. You sat upright and looked to your friends, who were all sitting up as well. Sokka held his boomerang and his knife sleepily.

"Did we get captured again?" He asked.

"It's nothing. I just had a bad dream." Aang confessed. "Go back to sleep."

"Don't have to tell me twice." Sokka said, rolling over.

"Are you alright, Aang?" Katara asked the boy. He was curled into a ball, laying back on the ground.

"I'm okay."

"You seem to be having a lot of nightmares lately. You wanna tell me about it?"

"I think I just need some rest."

At this, Sokka sat back up. "You guys wanna hear about my dream?"

Katara shot him a glare. Sokka laid back down.

"That's okay. I didn't want to talk about it anyway."

You patted his shoulder.

"Later." You assured. Katara laid back down as well, seeing as Aang wasn't going to say anything. You sighed, now wide awake, and realizing you weren't going to get anymore sleep, stood and packed your sleeping bag, before walking away.

When you got back to camp, Katara was walking up Appa's tail, remarking about how they needed food.

"Guys, wait. This was in my dream." Sokka started. You raised an eyebrow as you threw the rest of the stuff on Appa's saddle before climbing up as well. "We shouldn't go to the market."

"What happened in your dream?" Katara asked.

"Food eats people! Also, Momo could talk." He turned to the lemur. "You said some very unkind things."

"Well, it's a good thing that Sokka's dreams can't predict the future." You said, sitting down. Sokka crossed his arms, a sour look on his face. "Aw, cheer up. We're going to get food!" You exclaimed, hoping to raise his spirits. Sokka remained stoic. You rolled your eyes and crawled forward. "Sokka, don't make me tickle you."

"Pfft. I'm not ticklish." He said, arms still crossed.

"Yes you are. In fact, he's-"

Sokka rushed to his sister and placed his hand over her mouth, silencing her. You laughed as Appa rose into the sky, per Aang's request.

Appa had landed in a spot where you dock boats. You all scrambled off in search for food. The town was small, made in the side of a mountain. Sokka, Katara and Aang were searching food, while you were wandering around, looking for anything that might be useful. Finding nothing, you made your way back to where you last saw them.

"Sokka, maybe this isn't such a good idea." Aang voiced. "Look at the sky."

"I said I was gonna do this job." Sokka said, halting his movements. He was taking things below the deck of a ship.

"Job? What's going on?" You asked.

"Sokka took a job so we can have some money. But it looks like there's about to be a storm." Katara explained. You looked up and noticed the dark clouds that were rolling in.

"I can't back out just because of some bad weather." Sokka continued.

"The boy with the tattoos has some sense." An old woman voiced. "You should listen to him."
