Scarred Avatar

Chapter 6

Suddenly, we notice people approaching.

We jump down and warn the other two. Piomi whips up a fog so we can get away.

We climb on Dove and fly up. We peer down at the ground to see who it is. A fire nation scout.

We quickly get away.

*+*Later*+*

We land in some woods. Katara noticed a town nearby, so she's going into town to get more food for Dove.

Piomi and I work on airbending.

Sokka leans against a tree and stretches, then relaxes.

We continue practicing for hours.

Katara comes back with food. "I met someone in town. He's nice."

Piomi says "Well, we will have to go soon."

Katara nods, then feeds some food to Dove.

Sokka's snoring.

Katara packs some other stuff, then splashes Sokka with water.

He wakes up and sputters. "KATARA! Why did you do that?!"

"We have to go, Sokka."

He grumbles, but moves to the saddle and immediately falls asleep again.

Piomi and I jump up and land delicately. I'm in the saddle, she's on Dove's head.

Katara climbs up. Piomi whips up a cloud, then says "Fii Fii!"

Sokka's still asleep, snoring loudly.

I stretch, then look over the edge of the saddle, holding my glider.

I close my eyes.

*+*Near their next stop*+*

Piomi gasps "Oh no.. This is horrible..."

We all look and see a giant scar on the land.

Dove lands. Sokka jumps down and scoops up a handful of the charred ground. "The Fire Nation burned this place down.."

Piomi frowns.

I jump down, and look at it all. There's acorns everywhere.

I pick one up. "Acorns are tough."

Piomi, who's sadly staring at a patch of soot with no acorns, asks "Why are you saying that?"

Katara tosses an acorn to Piomi "These acorns are everywhere! The forest will grow back."

I nod "Soot can be good to help plants grow as well."

Piomi smiles and buries the acorn Katara gave her.

We climb back into Dove's saddle and go near the village. Dove stays in the woods.
