           It was boredom that led him to go
          to the human’s side. After eating a
          decent amount of leafy vegetables
          and fruits he wanted to walk around.
          A soft yawn emits from the bison’s
          lips as he slowly drops his body and
          stretches the front pair of legs straight.
          With the faint pat on his head, he licks
          the human happily.  Looking back at the
          piece of paper on the wooden table, he
          just blinks slowly and tries to understand
          what it is. He didn’t get it at all so he makes
          a noise, a confused noise. he was curious
          and he wanted to know the meaning of the
          things written on it.

He chuckled as the bison’s tongue ran up his body. He internally cringed at the sight of saliva dripping off of his tunic, but he’d gotten more used to the licking sensation over the past few months. “Hey, easy with the licking, buddy. I stole this baby from that spirit library, so I don’t want it to get ruined by bison saliva.” Leaning back against the creature, he turned back to the parchment. Once again, his finger meandered all across the page, searching for that perfect––

Oh, now what? He raised an eyebrow at the bison, only to see that his head was tilted in confusion. Ooooooooh. Duh Sokka, bison can’t read. “You don’t know what this is, huh? Alright, I’ll tell ya.” 

He unrolled the map completely and spread it out on the table. “Okay, this thing is called a map. Basically, it shows you how the land is laid out. This one is a map of the Earth Kingdom, which is where we are now. It takes a bit of practice to read, but once you get the hang of it, you can find out not only where you are, but also to get from Point A to Point B. It’s how I managed to get all of us out here, since well, I’m the best navigator here.” Very mature of you, Sokka. Stop bragging and keep explaining.

A calloused finger landed on the parchment and began tracing one of the roads. “Now these little lines you were staring at are the roads. And these––” he pointed to the multitude of jagged lines in the northwest corner, “––are mountains. And these open spaces that aren’t colored in––” he indicated them accordingly, “That’s the ocean. Now you see these three big circles right here? That’s Ba Sing Se, which is where we’re going. The circles are supposed to indicate the three huge walls that surround the city. Does this make any sense to you or…?”

 “ Honestly, Sokka, if you don’t let me heal this you’re going to be itching that scratch for weeks ! “ she shouts, roughly grabbing his face with one hand and directing the water to his bleeding shoulder. 

“I’m FINE! It’s just a scratch, I can take care of myself! Let me go!” He squirmed under her rough touch, trying as best he can to free himself from her grip. But alas, his struggle was to no avail. The water had attached itself to his shoulder and was already glowing. Goddammit Katara. 

Why did she have to be so dramatic and meddlesome? It was just a little bite from a moth wasp. No big deal. Actually, strike that. It was a big deal. For the past few hours, Sokka had been scratching that itch until his shoulder turned into a bleeding mess. 

He exhaled a long sigh, eyes narrowed in annoyance. “Seriously, this is nothing to worry about.”

          He walks to the male’s side. Brown hues
          look at the piece of paper that the human
          was looking at. ( What is that? )

It had to be here somewhere… All day long, Sokka had been searching for a good route to Ba Sing Se. Roughened fingers ran over the parchment as he tried to turn the twisting roads into a clear, direct passage in his mind. But it looked like the only way was to go over the Serpent’s Pass, which was rumored to be the most dangerous trail in the entire Kingdom. He knew that there was always Appa, but he heard that there was a lot of Fire Nation ships circling the ocean. The last thing he wanted was to dodge more fiery projectiles.  

His finger stopped on the Omashu region when he could feel something breathing down his neck. The rush of air was far too powerful for any human (well, except for Aang, but that was a different story), and it was accompanied by an animalistic grunt. He turned around and… 

Oh speak of the devil! The bison was right behind him, those inquisitive dark eyes staring at the ancient map. The warrior’s lips curled up into a little smile, arching a dark eyebrow at the beast. “Oh hey Appa!” he said, patting the beast’s forehead. “Whatcha doing there, buddy? Tryin’ to read this old thing?”

                  ,&& the bender had difficulties fighting the urge to shout out loud at her                                                                 sibling each time another vocalized expression slid down his bottom lip,                                               leaving  e c h o e s  to expand through the sphere surrounding the both water                                         tribe   ＰＲＯＤＩＧＩＥＳ. 

           how childish,                                        unspoken words rushed through the nerves swirled up                                                                 within the brain of the hearer but the muscles {never} allowed                                                                   their exposition to the interlocutor.                                                 his orbs widened as the   ＳＩＬＥＮＣＥ   kept the only distance between the two southerners, pointing out the upcoming anger, both should have’s and shouldn’t have’s; 

                                                 inner beast on the loose; 

                  however, none of it came as expected. 

❛ aang will feel way   ＷＯＲＳＥ  when he finds out                                                                                 you concealed such an important thing, sokka !                                                                                        appa is our friend, we’ve been looking for him for days                                                                               and you tell us   ＮＯＷ   that you know the exact place                                                                           where you’ve last seen him !? he could be in trouble!

                                                 how can you be so selfish !?  ❜    

                                                                                                   but what actually mattered ?

He gritted his teeth, trying to bear the weight of his sister’s scolding. Her piercing gaze drove into his heart like an icicle, its chilly tendrils creeping down his spine. She was right: what he did was selfish and wrong. His lighthearted escapade had turned into a complete disaster. Appa could be in danger, and this time… He was the one to blame. Spirits know how Aang would feel if he discovered that his beloved bison had gone missing again. 

“Yeah…you’re right. I thought I was trying to keep us together by not telling you, but it just came back to bite me in the ass…” As he spoke, the gears in his mind churned away, trying to concoct a plan to get Appa back. C’mon Sokka…think! Surely there must be a way. 

He raised his head, brows knit in determination. “Alright, I’ve got an idea. I saw a couple of his footprints a few hours ago, so I don’t think he’s left the island. Let’s tell the others to split up and scour the island. Go tell Toph and Zuko to search the caves. Aang and Suki can look in the fields. Once you’re done, meet me back here and we’ll search the beach.”

“True, but you also need to relax. Even the Avatar needs a break from time to time. We have plenty of time until the eclipse, so I’m sure we can take a day to peruse the market. I heard there’s this guy who makes the most amazing sautéed vegetables and tofu.”

                 ⚡  ━━  ‘  what a  S M A R T  decision on your part. ‘  there
                   was a  pause  as    the    SERPENT    smiled    widely  and
                   unapologetically. ‘ no really. i mean it when i say that this
                   was SO VERY INTELLIGENT of you. ‘

His gaze shifted down to his feet, avoiding the golden hues that glinted triumphantly over him. He wasn’t sure if this was really smart at all. Time was running out; soon the sun would emerge from its lunar wall and the firebenders would reclaim their power. Team Avatar was scrambling to retreat from this underground hideout… 

But here he was, making a deal with the one of the most dangerous people in the Fire Nation. He knew that Azula was unpredictable and untrustworthy, so who knew what tricks she had up her sleeve. Probably something horrible, he assumed. Maybe Suki isn’t safe after all. But if he played along for long enough, he could turn against the princess and get his troops out alive.

“Alright. Release Suki and I’ll lead you to Zuko.”
