The Next Avatar

That Was Hana

🏔

"Hyung! What was that? Who was that?! Better yet how did you do ... THAT!" Mark asked as he waves his arms in the air trying to replicate the fire that once burned from Taeyong.

Taeyong sighed as he laid back in his seat. The group was currently in their van heading towards their hotel room and Mark would not stop pestering Taeyong about who that girl was. He especially was concerned by his hyung spitting fire from his hands.

"Questions I really don't want to answer." Taeyong said, "It would probably too much for you to handle."

"Well, then explain it as best you can, because I'm seriously intrigued," Lucas said as he leaned closer to the older, "I want to see it again!" He squealed like a little child.

"Get. Away," Taeyong pushed, flashing a quick flame in front of Lucas's face to push him away. Instinctively, Lucas did, but soon after he was back at it, pestering Taeyong with Mark on his side.

"Whoahhh! How do you do that!" The 99 liners said in unison.

Taeyong rolled his eyes, "It's not something you can learn overnight." He explained, "First of all, you have to be born with the ability to bend."

"Ohhh." Mark said, "So you're like the Avatar!"

Lucas looked confused, "The blue aliens?"

Mark slapped the other, "No, like the benders! Fire, Earth, Water, and air are the four main elements that they can be born with the ability to bend! You know! The cartoon."

Lucas opened his mouth in an "o" shape in recognition, "But, how do you have the ability to bend, hyung? After all, it's a cartoon. Do u have some time of machine thingy underneath your sleeve?" He later asked.

"First of all, I have short sleeves on." Taeyong stated calmly, "And secondly, it's a long story that I don't have the time to tell."

"Fine then," Mark huffed, along with Lucas. "Then we will just ask Ten Hyung instead. He didn't seem surprised when everyone else was. He must know something."

The two turned around to the quiet Ten, seated in the back row of the van.

"Hyung! Do you know why Taeyong hyung has fire powers?"

Ten looked up to see two hopeful faces. He nodded, making the younger two squeal with excitement.

"Do you guys want me to tell you?"

Mark and Lucas aggressively nodded their heads.

"Well," Ten began, "It all started with...-Bison!!" He yelled, leaving Mark and Lucas confused, "Bison?" The asked.

They looked at Ten questionably but soon got their answer as the van came to an abrupt stop.

"Please stay the the vehicle for your safety. I will check out what it is." The driver instructed, but Ten, Taeyong, Mark, and Lucas didn't listen.

The four scrambled out leaving Kai, Baekhyun, and Taemin alone  in the safety of the van.

Ten was first to see the huge flying bison begin to land on the road in front of him. He could hear Mark whisper, "It's just like the cartoon."

Cartoon? Ten didn't know about a cartoon. But nonetheless, Ten knew who this bison was. Better yet, he knew who was riding it.

"Hong!" He yelled, as he began to run towards the bison.

However, he was stopped by their manager.

"It's not safe. Go back to the van." He said, but Ten didn't listen.

He struggled to get out of his manager's grip, but it was no use.

Before he gave up, he yelled out Hong's name as loud as he could and then gave into the manager's deathly hold.

Ten didn't notice that a head poked out from the basket on the bison's back. He didn't notice the same figure jump out from the beast and begin to run over to Ten.

He didn't notice, but Taeyong did.

"H-Hong?" He stuttered over his words, not really knowing if this was real or not. "Is that, really you?"

Hong stopped in his tracks as he heard Taeyong's voice.

Lucas, clearly confused, asked the question of who was Hong, when Hyunjin from Stray Kids is right in front of them.

"Oh, so that's why you looked familiar." Hong said under his breathe, "How could I have been so stupid."

Thankfully, no one heard.

"Hong!" Ten yelled again, bringing the said man out of his thought and towards his lover.

He engulfed Ten in his arms and kissed his forehead, with the other sobbing gently into his chest. "I thought I lost you," the older whined, holding the younger tighter.

"I would never leave you." Hong said.

The sight of the clearly confused the rest of the group as they were shocked into utter silence.

This silence soon broke as the once flying bison dusted off his clothes and clapped, "Congratulations on uniting. But can y'all stop. It's disgusting, and we have better things to do." He and two other figures emerged from the darkness and into the light of the van's headlight."

The group strayed to discuss about their mission and why they were here in the first place, disregarding the fact that Mark, Lucas, Taeyong, and their manager was still out and in hearing range.

"Wait," Lucas called out, "So, you guys are actually from the world of Avatar and benders and all that?"

"And, you came into our world through this portal thing, putting you into these bodies of our friends?" Mark added

"And you need to take Taeyong with you." The manager finalized, "This is the biggest bull I have ever heard. I am calling the cops."

"No!" Taeyong yelled, "What they are saying is true. They are from that world, and I am too..."

Hong smiled, "Now that that is settled we will be on our merry way with Zulee here, yea?"

"No," Taeyong objected again. "Like I said to Ten and that girl before, I am not going back. I am no longer part of it, so you guys can figure it out without me."

This aggravated Hong, "No longer part of it, or wanting to stay away from it." He began to walk closer to Taeyong, pushing past Mark, Lucas, and even the manager. "Because the way I see it, your just a coward who can't face the real reason he left. And "that girl"? I'm going to take a wild guess here, but I'm pretty sure that was Hana."

"Y-you don't mean." Zulee stuttered and Hong nodded.

The color drained from the prince's face as he took a few steps back and begin to run off. Leaving everyone behind and confused.

"Does Hong know the prince?" Fen asked out of nowhere.

No one answered for quite a while until Appa said, "I have no idea..."
