Her hand surprised him. His lack of wind made him more alert, but although he was startled by her sudden contact, the warmth of her touch seemed to overwhelm him. He grasped her hand and trusted her guidance. Trust was a slithering word that seemed to elude him in his past. His blindness worked both ways he was oftened told. He was blind to the beauties of the outside world, but also blind to the beauties of the inside world. The world to his emotions, his virtues, his thoughts and desires. He was always in the darkness, both inside and out.
The water was cold, surprising, and a little uncomfortable. Abstract images formed in his mind, memories of panic and fear. He supressed them all, but couldn't help but twitch his left hand that caused a large surge of water to part from him. He shot the wave in an opposite direction of Miyu, and gripped her hand a little harder as the waves receeded licking his knees. "Sorry about that," he stammered realizing his tight grip on her hand, "I didn't mean to. The water's a little cold, no?" He half-laughed, not really a laugh, a force expression he hoped she would buy to quickly change the subject and distract from his moment of fear.
I'm verry sorry to say this, but I'm going to have to recind Bard-dul from this RP. I'm sorry, but I have been very busy with getting ready for school that I can't post anymore. So I'm saying goodbye to everyone. It was fun while it lasted. I wasn't bored, I just can't post anymore. I'm too busy. I'm very sorry, CC Cowgirl. But I'll always think of the fun times that I had with this RP while it lasted.
Sincerely,
Super19
(a.k.a The Super Saiyan Android)
To Wild-Cherry:
I wish there could've been more talking posts between your character and mine. but like I said to CC Cowgirl, I have to recind from the RP. But I would still like that sig, if you got the idea about who I was talking about. The fused version of the absorbed Android 17 and the Android 17 of Future Trunks's time, fused into Super 17, onlsy seen in DBGT. Just as a reminder incase you forgot, Wild-Cherry. Oh, and as a special goodbye to you, I nhope everything will alright for you and Darth Extecute (I've seen your sig. You two look meant for each other).
Sincerely,
Super19
To Everyone in this Avatar RP:
Asta la Vista, everyone. Sorry I can't be with you anymore.
Sincerely,
Super19

Miyu gave a small giggle at his behavior "It's ok" she used her other hand to bend the water around them as she slowly made the water less clold but not quiet steam or too hot "You just have to feel the flow in the water and not fear it" she directed him more deeper to about their waist before she stopped to see if he was alright, she didnt want to rush him and make him leave. "Water isnt here to hurt us unless we make it" she said as she slowly let go of his hand and went under water to wet herself, she wanted to actually swim but she didnt want to leave her new friend. When she stood back up she bended water around him to try to soothe his nerves a bit so he wouldnt be so afraid as she retook his hand "Did you want to try deeper?" she asked carefully
"If I could change the world, I would.. We firebenders aren't exactly the most admired of benders.. And with reason" He said and shrugged, as he walked slowly after her.
"You must get a lot of respect and friends as an airbender, considering that your not very common these days, out of what I've heard" He said and looked up into the skies.. He gave out a sigh, before turning the distant emotionless look to a smile and looked back at her "Must be amazing" He said quietly, almost quiet enough to not sound at all.
As she spoke of him being more than just brute force, he shook his head. "Trough my life, I was trained in the arts of destruction. No good comes with fire. Which is why I try use it as little as possible"
He looked up the village. He was not sure where they were supposed to rest, so he simply followed the girl. Hopefully she knew better than him about where to go and when. It was true that tomorrow was a tough day. What would await them? Something told him that each day from this day and forth, would be an adventure. In one way or another. He looked up at the stars with an empty gaze, keeping the same speed as Ava.

The water felt welcoming. Its touch was unprecedented. As she dove into the water, he saw her. Every facial figure, contour of her body. The hair as it floated in the water. The eyes that were hidden behind their lids. And then she disappeared as her body surged to the surface. The image, although fleeting, he struggled to keep as the water moved around him. Emotions flared within him. Ones he’s never felt before, but one he feared as well. And then, as though he world could not grow darker, the water surged around him, engulfing him and pushing Miyu aside. The surrounding water made an out of tone piercing song, like the sirens of old. But Hazanko did not here noise, but words; cold disciplining words.
“Why have you strayed from the path I’ve laid before you? What is it that has led you astray?” Fear drowned Hazanko’s reason, that he stood petrified. His mother’s wrath bombarding him. “Is it her? Is it this one you have chosen over me?!” The water seemed to surge more depleting the lake. “I whom saved you from the cruel hand of this world, MY WORLD! Have I not shown love for you? Protected you, made you a guardian to my own heart?” He stammered for an answer, but procured none. “And yet here you stand, in MY essence, MY BEING, throwing away a life time of work for what? A measly HUMAN?! I gave her her power as I gave it to you. Cross me again, son and I will take your life with neither remorse or guilt!” Hazanko felt a cold hand pass over his body. The different animals receded from his four appendages as the world on his chest grew smaller. He felt the life escape from him until finally he mustered the courage to speak.
“Wait…” the coldness stopped, “I will do what you asked. I….am….” but he needn’t say more. The great surge of water become barely enough to cover him, and the torrential waters became still. The screeching noise had become lulling music to all around, that betrayed the image of a once terrible storm.
“I love you dearly. But you have been called to free me from this plague of the fire nation, my wayward children. Bring them back to me. Find me and bring me to myself. When all has returned to as it was I will return you to as I found you.”
With that, the water returned back to its normal still state. Not a ripple broke the surface. Hazanko looked at his hands. The burning sensation the tattoos returned the life to him as they took their rightful place where they had been. Hazanko knew not what to say. So instead he dipped his left hand into the water. Bent it so that it lay perfectly still on the surface a frozen flower head. A token, he had hoped, she would understand to be his forgiveness.
Miyu hadnt noticed the frozen flower and instead she was looking out at the water and then back at him, her hand still grasping his. She could easily tell he didnt want to go further into the water, so she wasnt going to push him to. She smiled as she slowly let go of his hand "I will be right back, I just want to swim a bit further, I will return though" she added at the end so he wouldnt leave, she hoped.
She turned away from him and dove into the water and started to swim deeper while still under the water, she always loved to swim, it helped her feel more connected with it.She resurfaced and started to bend the water around her in swirls as she went back under water and opened her eyes to see the sea floor as she dove down to grab that shiny sea shell that lay at the bottom. She then resurfaced and looked at it better and then returned to Hazanko.
"It appears like our friends is in need of a break. I will start working on the maps, Uno. You can go ahead and do what you like, as tomorrow is a big day. Spend the final hours with anything you like to do"
Hou grabbed the scroll and map, as she exited the temple. She looked at the scroll as she walked straight into her house, which was the closest one from the temple. She sat down on her chair and opened all the maps on the table. She grabbed a pen and paper, as she commenced the scetching of a new, complete map with marks from both maps and the scroll.
Uno looked around, as almost everyone had left. She felt so deserted, as she sat down by the opening of the door, looking out over the dark skies. What did she do wrong? She even gave one of them a soothing massage and yet she was being declined appreciation or a friendly word. She sighed as she looked at her hands. One of the Kyoshi warriors noticed the partly sad Uno, knowing that all she wished for was a bunch of new friends and a wild adventure. However all she got was a little rejection, combined with loneliness, despite her attempts to be kind.
The warrior walked up to the young Uno and was to put her hand over her shoulder, as Hou made a kick. The little piece of earth she sat on was bended and rose to a tall pillar, where she sat. The pillar reached above the roof, and the view was amazing.
Hiding away from the rest of the villagers at higher ground and watching the view was most likely the most comforting thing for Uno when she was a little down.
"Tomorrow is another day"
She said and sighed, forcing a smile upon her face even though no one was around to see it. She was kind of courious who this Ty Lee person that Hou spoke of was, but she did not think long about it.
(Kyoshi? I had it mixed up with Kyushu... I really should try harder to keep track of these things.)
Kam saw a temple above the village and thought it would be alright to rest there. "I can't afford to stay at an inn... I might as well stay there for tonight." Kam said as he walked up to the temple. As he got closer, Kam noticed a small house near by to the temple. "That must be where the caretaker lives... I should ask their permission before I rest in their temple." Kam told himself, detouring to the house. "Hello! Is anyone at home?" Kam shouted, hoping someone would answer him.
__________________ I'm a forevernerd... I'm just glad I grew up a bit.
Uno noticed the approaching man as well as heard his shout for attention, from up at her pillar above the temple. She however did not feel like bother with anyone at the moment, as she kept an eye on the large ball in the sky. Looking at the moon always soothed her mind to a degree.
Hou however heard and responded to the shout of Kam. She walked up to the door and carefully opened it. With a smile she realised it could be yet another of the adventurers to bring the avatar home. So, she stepped outside and gave a gentle bow.
"Welcome to Kyoshi Island. My name is Hou Attar and may I ask what I can do for you, friend?"
Haznako however took the opportunity and left the water. He was brilliant at not even leaving a ripple as he departed. He moved quickly through the forest. The wind was starting to pick up as the tree line thinned, and his vision improved exponentially. He could see, even though it was dark, the lodges and the temple that stood as an obelisk in the night. He could hear the whispers in the darkness. “So, who was the girl Hazanko?” “None of your concern.” And before the voice could respond again, he entered an empty room and closed the door behind him.
Hazanko was confused at the flurry of emotions that ran through him. Emotions of desperation, anticipation, anxiety, confusion, et. all inundated him forcing him to concentrate on more objective thoughts. “I can not let these things distract me,” he whispered suppressing the emotions within him, “nothing can impede my journey.” Volunta Terra he muttered and gingerly felt his to his cot, and went to sleep.
" I admire the fire benders quite a lot. They have more strength, devotion and efficiency than any others, really. You are strong when it is required, and even when it's not. It's only that you...They lack compassion that's necessary for balance. Try not to look down on yourself so much. You, it seems, have what they can't seem to grasp. "
As she said it, Ava's eyes widened quite a bit. This was true. A trace of her original fears fell away before her self, and she felt at ease in the Man's presence. Almost comforted, even. She took a moment to look at the man, and inspect his features. All were hardened, and firm. A small light seemed to shine through, however.
Ava was suddenly chilled as the ground below her momentarily turned Icy. A sound of water, fear flow through the air, screaming itself into Ava's ears, begging for her attention, Turning brusquely , she momentarily took Zuke's hand as she wheeled off. For a moment she stopped in her tracks, and drew her hand away the moment they made contact. She held it to her chest, blushing, and then began moving forward once more. She found herself in front of the lake where Miyu had been priorly playing her flute. Now she, and Hanzanko were both situated in the water, seemingly fine. First Ava had wondered if she had mispercieved, but then she saw the frozen flower. She also noted the two were hand in hand. The bridge of her nose reddening a bit, she apologised quietly, realising she might have ben interrupting something. She pedalled back a few steps, and turned to face Zuke, brushing a few wisps of platinum coloured hair out of her eyes.
" I do think that's where we're supposed to be headed, should we go now? "
Nodding her head to the buildings, the corners of her lips turned up a bit sheepishly, and not waiting for an answer she began walking once more.
Miyu already knew Hazanko left even without seeing him leave, she was used to people disappearing in her life so she tried not to make a big deal of it, she just didnt know why he had left. She sighed as she reached shore and looked at the shell in her hand, it was a pearly color that hade different colors reminding her of a rainbow. She bended all of the water out of her clothing and hair then changing back into her regular outfit.
Miyu sat down on the sand and decided to just let her hair hang over her shoulders instead of putting it into a bun like she usually did. She still wondered why Hazanko had taken off without saying goodbye, was her presense that unwanted. She took a small needle out of her pack and carefully put a small hole into her shell and then threaded it so she could wear it as a necklace.
Miyu put the needle away and her hand brushed against her flute which she quickly grabbed and gently placed to her lips, playing music always helped her express her feelings since she never had someone to actually talk to because she traveled alone.
She had no plans on staying where she was supposed to, she was going to stay out in nature like she has been for years. As she played her flute her song because sad as she still felt hurt by Hazanko running off the way he did, she was confused, she didnt know what she did to make him leave. She continued to play her flute while putting her heart into it to express everything that was going on with her.
Jamar heard music and smiled. Dancing his way, as he loved to dance, to the source of the music, he found Miyu by the water. He did not say a word as he simply danced to her music.
Miyu continued to play her flute, she knew someone was near but she didnt want to stop her song. She didnt know who her visitor was but she figured they were just one of the others that were here to group up in order to find the avatar. She closed her eyes as she continued to play and block out thinking.
Miyu sat down while stopping her music, her mind had gone completely blank as she stared down at the ground without blinking or moving. She had a tight grasp on her flute and her breathing had stopped as her eyes dialated. After a couple minutes of staring her eyes blinked and she was brought back to normal, she quickly looked around while rubbing her eyes hoping nobody had seen her space out like she did, it was sort of her weakness, she didnt know why but this happens alot to her, her mind will freeze up without letting her think or move.
Miyu looked at the person next to her, she had no idea who this person was. She looked away from him "Please leave me alone" she said in a quiet whisper, she felt completely embarrassed that someone had seen her when her mind went blank, it was a moment of weakness to her and she hated showing it to anyone.
Hazanko shifted in his sleep. It was the nightmare again. Even though he was blind, colors so vividly painted etched themselves onto crystal clear images. It was only in his dreams, when he could truly see.
The dream was the same, night after night. Four legendary creatures, thrashed and tore at one another. Each one held by ancient chains that looked as though any moment they would break. Hazanko stood at the fore front of this epic struggle. Each arm and leg strapped to one of the chains as he struggled to keep the creatures at bay. It was impossible. Suddenly the chains bend and snap. All four creatures dive at each other at once trailing behind huge hurricanes, earthquakes, bellowing tornadoes and pyroglyphic storms. Hazanko crouches and covers himself, cursing at his ineptitude. He feels the end near as these elemental titans clash with one another. But softly, slowly the sound around him dissolves, and from the fray of battle emerges a person, a girl. With an unprecedented ease she clams the dragon and serpent and stills the krosan and halcyon. While the creatures bow and rest at her feet, she stretches and kind and loving hand towards Hazanko. At first he hesitates, goes for the arm, and withdraws quickly. no No NO! “NO!”
He jolts, sweating profusely. He feels his eyes. They’re open. The world is till dark. He can feel the warmth and cold on his opposing arms. He still carried the marks. He taps the floor, that reverberates across the wood allowing him to sense around the room. Empty. Not being able to return to sleep, he decides to go for a walk. “Perhaps I’ll walk to the sea.” He slides the door, open to make his way barefoot to the bay.
