ATLA Little Bender

Who Are You?

The water tribe male landed behind him, Zuko swept his feet, wanting to focus on finding the Avatar instead of kiddie play with a boy in a dress. After several moments of fighting, he was the victor as Sokka didn't get up from the ground. Zuko looked around him, "Nice try Avatar! But these little girls can't save you.''

At the beginning of Main Street, Aang yells "Hey! Over here!" capturing the attention of the prince, he readied his staff, challenging Zuko.

"Finally," the prince said. Zuko commences by sending two fireballs in Aang's direction. Aang prepares to face the incoming burning projectiles. He ducks underneath the first and uses his staff to decimate the next fireball. He rapidly spins the staff over his head, propelling himself in the air. He lands in front of Zuko, who immediately kicks the staff out of his hands. 

Aang jumps up and lands between two fans of a Kyoshi Warrior that are lying on the ground. He stands up and picks up the fan with his airbending. Zuko madly charges Aang with his fist already stretched out before him. Aang spins around a few times to create a bigger momentum and uses the extra power of his swirl to blast Zuko in a nearby house with a strong blast of air. Aang saddened, lowers the fans. He runs down the main street and picks up his staff along the way. Aang tosses the object in the air, where it snaps open into his glider and jumps on. Aang looked down at the town, his heart weighed by the sight of a lot of burning houses and the Fire Nation troops among them. Aang looks back to see the burning statue of Avatar Kyoshi.

Flying back to Katara he lands in front of her just as she escorted two village girls, one of them Koko before she turned to him.

"Look what I brought to this place," Aang told her miserably, Katara brows furrowed in concern, "It's not your fault," she told him, trying to ease his heart. "Yes, it is," Aang argued, "These people got their town destroyed trying to protect me,"

Katara moved onto another tangent of thinking, what they could do to help the town, "Then let's get out of here. Zuko will leave Kyoshi to follow us, I know it feels wrong to run, but I really think its the only way." She urged him. Aang starred at the decimation, "I'll call Appa." He told her sadly.

Suddenly he shot up, he whipped around to question her, "Wait where's?"

Katara sighed, hoping he forgot, "She's inside the house with Koko and the other girls, Aang..." the waterbender hesitated,  "...she's a high lady in the Fire Nation, for all we know she could be... Zuko's betrothed," 

"She could be an airbender Katara please," The waterbender yielded at the desperation on Aang's face, not having the heart to make him feel worse after everything that was happening. She tried to rationalize a way to persuade Sokka, "I suppose she can be added security that Zuko will follow us off Kyoshi but we have to keep an eye on her Aang, she's fire nation we can't just trust her." Aang nodded, relief in having Katara's support. He went inside the house, his eyes met Koko, and the other village girls, who smiled upon seeing him. He gave a small smile back, a fragile one, that softened upon seeing the girl from the ship, he held her. Momo moved from toying with her hair to his shoulders.

He left the house, glancing one last time at the girls who followed him throughout the stay at Kyoshi, and left with Katara following behind. The three figures stuck behind the houses, staying out of sight until they climbed Appa. Each step pulled at Aang. Sokka after finally saying goodbye to Suki; gaining a kiss on the cheek from her, ran up Appa's tail.

"Appa Yip! Yip!" Aang called out, "Wait who's she!?" Sokka jumped back in surprise, he himself nearly falling off of Appa who ascended into the air. They ascended over burning buildings; smoke towering over the villagers of Kyoshi. His question went ignored by Katara who watched Aang.
