Kingdom of War 6
Warm Welcomes…
“Long Feng…”
King Bumi narrowed his eyes as he stared a hole right through the former Grand Secretariat. He and Feng have had their history, mainly with the way Bumi ran Omashu, and his eccentricity getting under his skin. But this was a bold move; it was considered suicide to vie for the crown in Omashu, especially with how its mighty king dispersed the Fire Nation soldiers in retaliation to their takeover.
Bumi knew Long Feng was serious.
“Ah, my dear King Bumi. I hope you don’t mind if I made myself at home…” Feng asked sarcastically, not really caring.
“Actually, not at all.” Bumi responded. “But since you’ve done that, does it mean you’ve taken that stick out of your ass, or do you keep it lodged in for comfort?”
Bumi punctuated that insult by cackling like a madman, and bringing a serious look to Feng’s face. “Yes, how droll. Enjoy your petty jokes while you can, dear king. Because where you’re heading, no one will be able to hear them but you.”
Bumi raised a curious eyebrow. “Ah, so this is the part where you’re little troopers try to take me down. How cute…”
“Actually, my little ‘troopers’ are the finest Earthbenders my nation has to offer.” Feng boasted. “And I’d watch what I say around them…they hate to be insulted.”
“Really?” Bumi asked, grinning deviously. “Well, your little girlie brigade is gonna hate this!”
Raising his right foot, Bumi stomped down on the floor violently, causing several pillars to rise up under several Dai Li Agents, sending them airborne. Tsung & his two men countered by launching their rock gloves at the King for restraint, but Bumi easily brushed them away as if they were pebbles. The next attack sent him off his feet though, as Long Feng shuffled his leg and launched a jagged rock from the ground towards Bumi’s chest, an attack he was barely able to block as he rolled against the ground, before coming to a stop.
Feng smiled, believing to have effectively dealt with the mighty King of Omashu. But a moment later, that thought was thrown away when he heard the sound of his cackling, and saw him rising to his feet. “Ooh boy!” The king cheered. “I haven’t had this much fun since Aang was here! Good blow, Feng, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA…My turn!”
A quick sweep of Bumi’s leg, and Feng found himself jettisoned into the air, even higher than his subordinates were. It took all of his skill to regain his balance but he was able to land on his feet, albeit very roughly. Bumi prepared to give him another ride, when suddenly, the ground rose up from around him, locking him in place up to his waist. Before he could break his holding, he felt his arms being held in place behind him, courtesy of Tsung & one of his men.
“MASTER, NOW!!!”
Like a bullet, Long Feng shot towards King Bumi, and pulled out a solid sheet of steel from his robe. He slid behind the king, using his Metalbending, created a makeshift cuff which locked Bumi’s hands behind him. The battle was over.
Bumi struggled to break free, but relented once he realized what element was restricting him. “Impressive, Feng.” He complimented. “You have indeed learned to become a Metalbender.”
“A small trick I picked up from my days being unfairly incarcerated.” Feng replied. “I wish I could show you more, but as you see I’m a busy man…with many more providences to conquer.”
“Oh I’ve seen the process already.” Bumi commented. “A young Earth Kingdom girl showed it to me some months ago. You may know her…what was her name? I believe it was…”
“Toph!” Feng growled as he finished for the King.
“That’s it!” Bumi agreed. “That’s her name! You know, for some reason, I though it was Jinsama.” The King then let out another cackling laugh, amused by his own wit.
“Whatever.” Feng growled. “If she dares to get it my way I shall crush her as easily as you, old man.”
“Oh yes, that’s quite the accomplishment for you Feng, beating up a feeble old man.” Bumi told him. “The only thing funnier, is that you’ll be beating up by a young girl soon!”
Bumi’s cackling began again as he entertained the thought of Toph laying the ground work to a helpless Long Feng, who at the moment was seething in anger to the point where he stormed towards the door.
“Aw what’s wrong, Fengy Boy?” Bumi asked. “I even made a song about it. Toph is better than you are! Toph is better than you are!”
Feng was close to the point of anger explosion. “Would someone PLEASE SHUT HIM UP!?!?” Tsung complied with Feng’s wish. Using his other rock glove, he launched it at Bumi’s mouth, effectively creating a gag. “Thank you.”
Tsung bowed in respect for the former Grand Secretariat. “It is an honor to serve you sir…but we do have a problem.” Feng turned to his second-in-command with interest. “The Avatar is in the Earth Kingdom. I encountered him & his friends earlier…”
“And did you dispatch with them?” Feng asked.
Tsung bowed his head. “No sir. The Lord of the Fire Nation intervened, preventing my men & me from doing so.”
Feng turn slightly away from his subordinate and grinned. “Hmm, so the Fire Lord is involved as well? This game has just gotten more interesting…”
Tsung gave his superior a look of confusion. “You…are not concerned with the Fire Lord’s presence?”
Long Feng laughed in response to that question. “Dear Tsung…if I effectively put down that rabid dog that was the princess of the Fire Nation, then what chance does her brother stand against me?” He took a moment to think over the situation, before giving out his order. “Send Lo and his Agents after them. If the Fire Lord & the Avatar wish to take up residence in my Kingdom, they must learn that they are under my rule…as is everyone else.”
“And here we are…”
Opening the grand doors, Chief Oyaji showed the group into a huge dining room with lavish, long table in the center of the room. The table was adorned with a venerable buffet with all types of food to please meat-eater & vegetarian alike. It was truly a feast, one fit for royalty…or an Avatar & his friends.
“Our chefs had to work on the fly, so we hope this banquet is suitable enough to welcome you back to the island, and thank you for all you’ve done in helping to end the Great War.” Oyaji announced.
“It’s good enough for me!” Sokka said, before rushing to the table and taking the middle seat. “Let’s eat!”
Just as quickly though, he found himself surrounded on both sides by Ty Lee & Suki, each latched onto his arm. A moment later, Toph arrived right behind Sokka’s chair, only to find herself too late to get a seat.
“I just love a man with a healthy appetite.” Ty Lee swooned.
“Yes, MY man certainly does have one.” Suki replied.
“Toph, over here.” Katara waved on the other side of the table. “I saved you a seat.”
“Yeah…thanks, Katara…” Toph told her, before walking around to her, grumbling words of anger. “Lousy Stinking Kyoshi Bimbos…”
The rest of the group took their seats at the table as well, with Toph sitting directly across from Sokka, Zuko & Mai across from Aang & Katara, and several Kyoshi Warriors filling up the rest of the chairs. Chief Oyaji sat at the head of the table. For almost an hour they sat & feasted, recalling the memories of past year, enlightening friends on what has gone on in their lives. It was a joyous scene, as everyone was elated to be able to share this moment, without having to worry about the Great War…though Long Feng & his actions did find themselves into the conversation.
“I still can’t believe Long Feng escaped.” Suki said. “I mean, wasn’t he locked up at Boiling Rock?”
“The Fire Nation Council thought it was best if he was imprisoned in his own land.” Zuko revealed. “But we sent him to one that was on the outskirts of Ba Sing Se.”
It was then that Toph raised her head, along with an eyebrow. “Wait a minute, you don’t mean The Cactus, do you?”
Zuko nodded his head, confirming her guess. “Wait, The Cactus?” Sokka interjected. “Why do they call it that, it’s covered with spikes on the outside?” The young water tribesman began chuckling at his own joke. But, as usual, he was the only one.
“Not even, ponytail.” Toph corrected him. “Think about the inside of cactus; it has water, coolness, all that stuff. Nice place to be. But the outside of a cactus is bone dry, surrounded by a desert that’s nearly endless, and merciless.”
Suki eyes widened as she started to understand Toph. “You mean Si Wong Prison?”
“Wait, are you talking about the desert? We’ve been through there.” Katara pointed out. “And we’ve never seen any prison.”
“That’s because it’s disguised behind a row of sand dunes.” Suki explained.
“They only have one shipment of supplies come in weekly, to prevent anyone hitching a ride on the shipment carts for escape.” Toph added. “You think Boiling Rock is tough to break out of? IF you can escape The Cactus, it’s over a 100 miles to Ba Sing Se, the closest town. Even the best Earthbenders couldn’t make it without water. If Long Feng escaped from there…he has improved his skill.”
“Wait…The Cactus.” Ty Lee chimed in. “Zuko, isn’t that where you had her transferred?”
Zuko remained quiet, along with Mai, as everyone else sitting at the table became confused. “Where who was transferred?” Katara asked.
“It doesn’t matter.” Zuko uttered.
“Oh no…you haven’t even visited her, have you?” Ty Lee asked him. “How long has it been, Zuko?”
“Wait…” Aang said. “…you’re not talking about…”
“Can we just drop this?” Mai interrupted.
“Who are we talking about?” Katara asked again.
Ty Lee was visibly upset about Zuko’s attitude over the subject. “Zuko…she’s your own sister…”
“TY LEE…” The Fire Lord stopped himself as he slammed his fist against the table, but Ty Lee’s statement said enough. Everyone in the room now knew who they referred to.
“Oh, Azula…” Katara said, remembering her last encounter with her.
“Zuko…you haven’t visited her yet?” Aang asked.
“And why should I?” Zuko replied. “Have all of you forgotten what she’s done? The part she played in the war?”
“Who’s to say she hasn’t changed!?” Ty Lee shot back. “You’ve changed a lot since then and…”
“She doesn’t change!” Zuko barked. “You’ve known her most of your life, I’ve known her all my life…she’ll never change.”
Katara chimed in. “I agree with Ty Lee. It’s been over a year, you don’t know if she’s the same person.”
“You…agree with her?” Zuko asked Katara. “After what she tried to do to you at Agni Kai?”
“I know what she did!” Katara replied, anger rising in her voice. “But that doesn’t mean she hasn’t learned from her mistakes.”
“You call all that she did mistakes!?” Zuko laughed, almost in disbelief.
“They were!” Ty Lee interjected loudly. “She could be better now. I know what’s inside of her, Zuko. She’s a compassionate woman who—!”
“AZULA IS A—…”
And the argument stopped right there, as Zuko paused before he said something that would cause deep regret. But everyone could sense what was about to be said, especially Mai. “I knew we shouldn’t have come to this island.”
Sighing deeply, Zuko sat back in his chair, before rising up to leave. “You’re right Mai, and I think we should go.”
“Zuko, wait!”
Ty Lee’s plea fell on deaf ears as Zuko & Mai continued towards the door. But one thing they couldn’t ignore was waterbending, which was what Katara used to restrain the Fire Lord. The stream of water quickly wrapped around him before turning to ice, keeping him in place. “No, you’re not walking away from this.”
“Katara, let me go!” Zuko grunted.
“I understand why you’re so sore about this subject.” She continued, ignoring his demand. “She’s your sister & she used you; she’s part of your family and all that she’s done reflects on you because of your new position. Like it or not though, we all have a history with Azula, and we should all see if there’s a chance she could be reformed.”
The anger in Zuko’s eyes caught Katara immediately, but she remained firm in her actions, folding her arms over her chest as they continued their stare down. Eventually, the Fire Lord sighed and hung his head, noting Katara’s determination on her face. “You’re not gonna let me go until I agree to this, are you?”
She shook her head giving her answer, and remained steadfast until he shook his head & relented.
“Thank you, Zuko…” She said, releasing her hold on him. He & Mai then returned back to the table.
“You know what she’s gonna do, Zuko…” Mai warned him.
“Look, all I’m saying is we shouldn’t turn our back on her.” Ty Lee said. “You remember how she was when we had her admitted; she was hysterical. Right now she needs those close to her to be there. Just one simple check on her, if she hasn’t changed, we’ll leave her alone for good.” Ty Lee reached across the table and grasped Zuko’s hand. “Come on…Ple-e-e-e-e-e-ase?”
It was the ultimate tactic Ty Lee could pull out, the puppy-dog look; an expression of hope mixed with sadness pulled off so perfectly not even Azula was immune to it. Naturally, Zuko never had a chance. Dropping his head, he gave in. “…fine.”
A huge grin adorned Ty Lee’s face. “Thank you, Zuko! Thank you, thank you!” She lunged forward for a hug. “You and Mai are the best friends I…”
“One more move, and you’re ponytail is gone…” Mai threatened, reaching into her robe for a dagger.
Thinking about it for a quick second, Ty Lee cautiously went back into her chair, almost cradling her trademark ponytail. “I’ll…just wait for another time…”
It was near midnight as the full moon shun over Kyoshi Island. Most of its residents have already called it a night, and the few who are out are Kyoshi Warriors on guard duty. The rest slumber soundly inside of the Kyoshi House, where Aang & the group are also staying as guests. Due to their numbers, most of them have opted to partner up in quarters, with Aang & Katara bunking up, and also Mai & Zuko. However, the one member of the group who was lucky enough to get her own room actually did want to partner up.
And that’s what led Toph to sneak out of her room.
Making her way carefully & silently down the hall, she sought entrance to Sokka’s room; she couldn’t hold her feelings to herself anymore, and now was the perfect time. She would catch him alone, wake him up, confess her feelings to him and be done with it. It was simple for her as she went over the plan in her head; unfortunately it was far from simple in reality.
Peeking in, she spotted Sokka asleep…spooning with Suki. And just like that, her plan went down the drain. “Oh great! I thought all the Kyoshi girls slept together.” She whispered to herself.
Dejected, she slowly walked back to her own quarters, but not before noticing a figure stealthily whizzing past her into the room. The figure obviously didn’t see Toph in the dark, but Toph’s sight allowed her to identify the intruder almost immediately…Ty Lee had entered Sokka’s room.
“Hmmph! Maybe I should become a Kyoshi Warrior so I can be with Sokka…” Toph grumbled to herself, retreating back to her room.
Back inside Sokka’s room, Ty Lee stood over the couple and examined their position. Both were huddled close to each other, and Sokka’s arms were wrapped around Suki. But just then, Sokka shifted in his sleep, rolling onto his back as he took one arm from around his beau. It was the opening Ty Lee was looking for. Dropping down to her knees, she carefully & gently began to unbuckle the water tribesman’s pants before sliding them down slowly to his knees. His boxers were next; and as she slid them down, she caught an eyeful of a ‘big’ reason Sokka was so coveted.
It had been months since she’s had her ride of him, the last time being a chance meeting when she came across him in the forest, and both were in need of an ‘aura cleansing.’ That was during a time of war, though. With peace now throughout the land, Ty Lee had little to worry about in terms of consequences for this. Sure, her Kyoshi leader was tightly involved with him…but that’s what made it even more fun.
A joyous grin wrapped around her face as she leaned forward and wrapped her lips around the head of his manhood. Her tongue slowly circled it as she let of a low moan of pleasure. She missed this sorely, and adored the moment now that it had come. Sokka seems to enjoy it as well, as he groaned lowly in response in his sleep. Ty Lee wouldn’t stop there however, as she swallowed more of his throbbing member inch-by-inch. Soon, more than half of his cock was in her mouth and nearly down her throat, and she loved it. From there she began to bob her head up & down, tightening her lips around the shaft, making sure he could feel it. And Sokka could.
“Aw…aw man…that’s so good…” He uttered in his sleep.
It was good to Ty Lee as well. So much so she began rubbing herself through her green panties. Her legs crept open wider & wider as she rubbed & sucked continuously, letting off sporadic moans all the while. She eventually ceased with her mouth and started licking his slick shaft from hilt to head. She wanted it wet enough, so she could ride him all night. However, her tongue-work was too much and felt too good for the young water tribesman to stay asleep.
“Oh man…” His eyes slowly opened. “Man, that feels so…so…TY—MMMPPHHH!!!”
He covered his own mouth quickly, not wanting to wake up Suki. He then took his hands away and glared at the young woman holding his cock. “What are you doing!?” He whispered loudly.
“Just call it a Kyoshi Special Welcome.” She giggled. “Do you like it?”
“Are you out of your…?” Sokka didn’t finish that statement, as he remembered Ty Lee’s ways. “You can’t do this, Suki’s right beside me!”
“Don’t worry, we can be real quiet.” Ty Lee whispered back, readying to climb onto the cot with the couple. It was then that Sokka discovered her attire as she stood up in the moonlight…T-shirt, panties & Kyoshi war paint. She came in her for some lovin’.
“You really don’t we can do it like this, do you!?” He whispered with a hint of anger.
Ty Lee responded by grinning & winking down at him. “Just consider it you helping me with my stealth training.” And with that, she grabbed hold of her panties and slid them all the way down to her ankles. Stepping out of them, she climbed onto the cot and on top her Sokka. Sokka could feel her warm, wet snatch against his shaft as she raised her hips and used two fingers to spread herself open. She then guided herself down upon him, letting his thickness slide deep inside of her as she lowered herself. It made her shiver in unbridled pleasure with every inch she accepted.
As soon as all of his manhood was inside of her, she began to grind herself against him. It was so exciting; after months of waiting, after months of training, being her fellow Kyoshi Warriors for most of the time…she had Sokka to herself…mostly. She leaned down and kissed him, her lips wrapped around his as her tongue explored his mouth. Sokka found himself kissing her back just as passionately, as well as grinding his hips with hers involuntarily. What was more, with his arm still around Suki, his hand began to grope her breast. It was something he didn’t pay much attention to, until he heard Suki’s reaction.
“Ooh…”
It caused his heart to skip a beat, yet he couldn’t stop himself. The feel of her love pillows was too much to let go. Plus in their position, she was lying on his arm. Any sudden movement would surely wake her up, busting the two in a more than compromising position.
And to further the situation, Ty Lee became even more aroused by Sokka’s actions. “You are kinky!” She softly giggled. “Feeling up on Suki while we have sex. I knew there was a reason I liked you.”
“It’s not me, it’s the hand!” Sokka whispered in his defense. “It can’t help itself!”
Still, he continued to feel on his slumbering love as his other significant other continued her joyous ride. Her hips bounced with reckless abandon, driving his cock balls deep into her with each downward movement. Her hands were on his shoulders as she strived to keep her balance, but her lust at the moment only cared to make her & Sokka come, and come hard. Beads of sweat flew off of her firm, athletic body, and her moans started to become more audible. But she still tried her best to keep quiet so as not to wake her superior officer.
“Oh, god!” She struggled out, trying to stifle her cries of passion. “Your cock is so good…”
“I would think so.”
And at that moment, both Sokka & Ty Lee’s hearts stop cold. Slowly, they both turned their attention right beside the Water tribesman, as Suki slowly rolled over to face them, fully awake. “Enjoying the ride, Ty Lee?”
“Uh…Hi…Suki.” The nervousness Ty Lee felt at the moment was off the scale. “It’s…not what you think.”
“Yeah, exactly!” Sokka agreed. “Nothing like what you think!”
Suki, of course, didn’t believe a word. “Oh? So then what is it?”
The ‘loving’ couple began to sweat as both of them tried to think of a good excuse for their actions. “Uh…Sokka’s…helping me…with my fighting technique?”
“Uh, yeah…let’s go with that!” seconded Sokka.
Suki grinned at their response. “Do you really expect me to believe that?”
“…No…” Ty Lee replied, dropping her head in shame. “This means I’m out of the Kyoshi Warriors, doesn’t it?”
“Hey, you don’t have to go that far…” Sokka chimed in.
“Relax; you’re not being kicked out.” Suki assured her 2nd-in-command. “To be honest, I knew this would happen…though I’m rather surprised that you would be so bold as to try this. Well, you might as well finish up.”
After hearing her superior say that, Ty Lee’s eyes lit up. “Really? You mean it?”
“Whoa! Wait a second…” Sokka protested. “Don’t you think the moment is kinda lost here!?”
“Oh Sokka, you just need the right motivation…” Suki countered, before leaning in and giving him that motivation, with an open-mouth kiss on the lips. Her tongue invaded his mouth almost immediately on contact with his lips, and she let out a subtle moan of enjoyment to urge him on. A moment later, Ty Lee began to feel the benefit of Suki’s kiss as Sokka’s manhood stiffened even more in her warm snatch.
“You are good, Suki…” Ty Lee complemented as her hips went to work again.
Suki broke the kiss momentarily to reply. “I try my best with him…”
Her lips then went back to attend to Sokka’s, as his hand crept behind her body, until it reached her firmly toned behind. He slid his hand beneath the fabric of her panties and immediately searched for her wetness; a search the leader of the Kyoshi Warriors enjoyed. Once found, he ran his fingers along her moist slit, and Suki accommodated him by spreading herself, draping her leg over Sokka’s abs. Now both Kyoshi Warriors were huddled close to the Water Tribesman, with Ty Lee becoming more energetic as she rode her lover’s cock. With Suki fully awake now, she didn’t have to hold back her enjoyment as much, allowing her hips to move faster than before.
“Oh yeah, oh yeah…” She moaned euphorically, her hands placed on his shoulders for balance. She was so close to her climax she could feel it, as was Sokka. “Oh yeah! My aura’s so bright…I’m gonna cum!”
And with that announcement, the cheerful Kyoshi bucked one last time before resting on top of Sokka, her body trembling over the orgasm he brought her to. A moment later, Sokka reached his limit as well, and responded by letting off a hot load of jizz that brought an even wider smile to Ty Lee’s face as she felt it spray all over her inner walls.
“I’ve waited so long to do that…” She exhaustedly exclaimed.
“I can see.” Suki noted, before turning to her lover. “I hope you still have enough for me.”
“Oh he does!” Ty Lee cheerfully told her. “I can feel him; he’s still hard as a rock.”
It wasn’t something that Sokka wanted aired publicly, especially with exhaustion wearing on him. But a more powerful urge would push him to go on; lust. Or to be more precise, the desire he now had for both young women. Ty Lee climbed off of the Water Tribesman as Suki stood directly above his waistline, her back to him. She then dropped to her knees as Sokka grabbed her hips with both hands. Reaching down between her legs, she felt out for Sokka’s manhood and, once found, guided herself onto it, allowing his thickness to penetrate her hungry snatch until it disappeared inside of her.
From there Suki leaned back onto her man and let him take control, as his hard member slid in & out of her vagina. She closed her eyes and reveled in the joy of the moment as Sokka’s hand moved to caress her sweet pillows. He played with her nipples, tweaking them gently just as she liked it as his pelvic thrusting continued. It could be considered a moment where happiness was spread throughout the room…were it not for Ty Lee feeling left out.
As she watched, she could feel herself becoming aroused again, even more than before. And not after long, she couldn’t contain herself; so she crawled over to the two lovers, and turned their carnal moment into a threesome.
“Ah! Couldn’t…help yourself?” Suki moaned, feeling Ty Lee’s hand on her other breast.
“You two just look so cute together…” Ty Lee admitted. “Besides, I like this position…”
The flexible Kyoshi showed just how much she liked it by putting her lips to Suki’s erect nipple. Her tongue brushed across it in her mouth, round & round making circles as Suki gasped and moaned in delight. It felt so good that Suki sought to repay the pleasure, as her hand ventured between Ty Lee’s legs. Finding her moist honey pot, she began to rub her lower pussy lips as Ty Lee’s body trembled in reaction.
“Oh-h-h-h yeah…” She shuddered, enjoying her superior’s handiwork. Another hand would find its way onto her body as well, Sokka’s. Caught in the moment, he now found himself groping two different breasts, and loving every moment of it.
His thrusts picked up momentum as Suki moaned for more. Sokka was prepped to let out a groan himself, until Ty Lee’s lips for their way to his. Their tongues dueled between each other’s mouths as hands groped whatever body parts they could touch. The full moonlight now hit inside the room, illuminating the three sweat-covered bodies grinding against each other. Each one of them wanted to scream out in passion, but knew that if that happened, their actions would immediately key as to what was going on between them. Instead, as Suki felt herself on the verge of her own orgasm, she tried her best to hold back.
“Sokka, baby…I’m gonna cum!”
“Me too, Suki!”
“So am I!”
And with that, the three joined lovers reached their climax together. Sokka’s hot load filled up Suki’s inner walls as Ty Lee’s juices gushed over her fingers. Muscles contracted and tensed together, before releasing as the two Kyoshi women collapsed on top of the object of their affection; Ty Lee on Sokka’s right, Suki on his left.
“That…was incredible…” Ty Lee marveled. “Now I can go to sleep…”
As she cuddled up next to her man, Sokka wore a confused look. “Wait, she needed that to go to sleep?”
“You should see her when you’re not around.” Suki told him. “She’s made a hobby of carving chunks of wood into the shape of…well, ‘little’ Sokka.”
That revelation was more than enough for the Water Tribesman for one night. “I think I should just get some sleep now…”
“Good idea.” Suki agreed, before planting a loving peck on his lips. “Good night, Sokka.”
Sokka was about to reply in kind, when Ty Lee landed her own quick kiss on his lips. “Good night, cutie.”
And as the two drifted off into slumber, Sokka could only smile to himself. “Yeah…good night.”
The sun rose over the eastern bay of Kyoshi Island, bringing daylight to the landscape and a new morning to the island’s inhabitants. Inside of the Kyoshi Hut Zuko is the first to awaken. With Mai slumbering silently at his side, he crept his eyes open slowly, so as not to let the sun blind him. He sat up on the edge of their cot and stretched his arms into the air while letting out a yawn. From there he stood up and began pacing to stretch his legs. As he took a step out of his room though, he found he wasn’t the only one awake this early.
“Aang…?”
The young bald Avatar was stretching in his doorway as he noticed Zuko. “Oh, Morning Zuko.”
“G’Morning…” The Fire Lord said back. “What are you doing up so early?”
“I usually help out the Southern Water Tribe people around this time every day.” Aang answered. “So, I’m kinda use to it. What about you?”
“Around this time my Council wakes me up for my daily Fire Lord duties.” Zuko replied, rolling his eyes as he stretched again. “I kinda wish I brought my bed with me, though.”
“Yeah, I know what you mean.” Aang agreed, stretching out the kinks in his body as well. “Looks like a good day though, maybe a minute outside will make you feel better.”
Currently, Zuko was feeling so rundown he wanted to retreat back to his cot with Mai. But there were matters to attend to today, and it was good that he was one of the first one’s up. Walking towards the front door, Zuko grabbed the handle and swung the door open, expecting to receive some fresh air…
…what he got was a boulder the size of a bowling ball barreling towards his head.
With honed training & instincts he bent down backwards, using his right hand to catch himself before hitting the floor as he barely managed to avoid the flying rock, which passed over his head and made a beeline directly for the Avatar’s.
“AANG!!!”
“Wha…?”
Turning around, Aang spotted the boulder just as it was about to collide…and using his Airbending skill, he summoned a powerful gust which stopped the boulder in mid-air for a short moment, before propelling it back out of the door at twice the speed it entered. The air blast also swung open every door in the hut, awakening everyone.
“Wha…what’s go…? Aang?” Katara sat up in her cot, noticing that Aang wasn’t beside her. She breathed a sigh of relief when she spotted him in the doorway. “Aang, what’s going on?”
“We have visitors…” Zuko answered for the Avatar as he slowly stood back up. The sight outside of the door was one that not a single person in the hut expected to see. The Dai Li were present on the island, about 12 of them, all lined up in a row, and behind them sat a large man atop a tamed Badgermole. To say the man was rotund would be a considerable understatement; he was a near perfect oval shape, and his Dai Li uniform obviously was specially made to accommodate his form, but the confident grin he exuded from under his conical hat was enough to show that he was the leader of this group of agents who’ve invaded the island.
“What’s with all the racket?” Sokka asked, wearily appearing in his doorway.
“ATTENTION, KYOSHI ISLAND INHABITANTS!!!” The large Dai Li Leader bellowed. “My name is Lo, and on behalf of our lord & master Long Feng we would like to welcome the Avatar & all of his guests to the Earth Kingdom! And we shall also make sure they never leave…”
