"I can't believe we gave up our tickets, and we're going through the Serpents Pass" Sokka groans as we made our way out of the station.
"Shut it, Sokka" I groan out.
"Yeah, I can't believe you're still complaining about it" Toph adds, slightly annoyed by his complains.
"Hey guys wait up, I'm coming too" Suki says from behind us dressed in her Kyoshi uniform.
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Sokka questions looking at his gir-hold up, I don't think their official.
"Sokka, I thought you'd want me to accompany you?" She says shocked.
"I do it's just..."
"Just what?, huh?"
"Nothing, I'm glad you're coming" Suki walks past him to my side giving me a small smile which I return only a little weaker.
"Here we are" Katara say looking at the Serpents Pass, with me beside her.
"Huh? I thought it would be more windy, you know, like a serpent. I guess they misnamed it" Sokka admits making me role my eyes.
"Oh brother" I murmur.

We kept walking, up until we stopped at a large wooden archway, with a writing at the top of the sign.
"There's something written on the sign, oh how aweful" Ying says sadly, looking up at it.
"What does it say?" Toph asks.
"It says..."
"Abandon hope" I says completing it for Katara.
"How can we abandon hope? It's all we have" Ying says hiding her head in her husbands shoulder.
"I don't know, the monks told me that hope is just a distraction, so maybe we do need to abandon it" Aang says looking ahead.
"What are you talking about?" I ask facing him.
"How isn't going to get us to Ba Sing Se neither is it helping us find Appa. We need to focus on what we're doing right now, and that's getting across this path" He says stepping through the gates with me in tow.
"If you say so" Katara says following after me. We all walk in a single file along the deadly narrow path, high along the cliff face.
"The Fire Nation control the western lake, right Suki?" I ask looking ahead.
"Yes, I even heard a rumour about them working on something big on the other side and they don't want anyone finding out what it is" Suki says confirming my suspension.
