Sokka was sitting next to the fire when he smelled ash and smoke, Sokka looked at the fire and noticed that the wind was blowing it away from him. "We're surrounded... I shouldn't have fallen asleep." Sokka thought to himself, doing his best not to look like he noticed. Sokka nudged Muren with his foot. "Hey, roll over. You're snoring." Sokka said, doing his best to wake Muren up inconspicuously.
Muren woke up and looked over at Sokka. "What are you ta..." Muren began groggily, only to be interrupted by Sokka signalling to be quiet and pointing over at Camille. Muren noticed that Sokka was acting a little strange so he sat up and moved closer to him. "What's the matter?" Muren asked, very quietly.
Sokka continued to look into the fire to remain inconspicuous. "We're surrounded by fire soldiers... I can smell them... we can't let them know that we noticed them just yet... pretend we're talking about Camille, or they might think we're up to something." Sokka whispered so that only Muren could hear.
Muren went along with it and looked over at Camille. "She is a great person isn't she? My father would be very surprised to find that his son, the fire monster, would run off to fall in love with a water bender." Muren said, loud enough to make it seem as though that is what they were talking about.
Sokka was surprised by what Muren chose to say. "You were called the fire monster...? You're in love with Camille?" Sokka said, in genuine surprise.
Muren nodded. "I was called the fire monster because of my father, Wailin, the burning beast... we are given these names because of our size and the way we are trained." Muren shuddered at the thought of his training, trying his best to forget that part of his life. "As for Camille, she is a wonderful girl. She would make a perfect wife." Muren said, winking at Sokka to keep the conversation going for just a little while longer.
Sokka nodded. "You're lucky... I wish I could find a girl like her." Sokka said, making a discrete gesture for Muren to put out the fire. Muren nodded and the fire went out. There were many loud noises and a few bursts of fire, but after a few seconds Muren was carrying Camille and Sokka was trying to lead them to a safer place.
