markofthewise | Sokka the 82nd

When Sokka woke up in the smithy, he was, to say the least, concerned. He had apparently died and gone to weapon heaven. And then of course, there was some horrible saber-toothed moose lion on the floor next to him. Feeling rather panicked, Sokka scooped up his boomerang (and the awesome looking sword next to it) and snuck out of the smithy without waking it up. Upon examining the boomerang, he noted it was strange how it had a few extra notches and scratches to it, like it had seen some rough times. That worried him.

The town proved even more mind blowing. It was huge. Buildings raising up beyond what he could imagine and there were so many people and houses. And not a single inch of snow. In fact, he felt rather hot and he immediately had to shed his parka. He felt lost and confused and was worried about where the rest of his tribe was. Where was Katara? Or Gran-Gran? He needed to find them. And thus he began to explore town, from one shop and house to another. Sneakily.

At some point, Momo comes landing on his shoulder. A nice lemur. A nice delicious lemur. Sokka easily catches it (since it doesn't resist).

"Mmm. Hello meat. You're just in time for lunch!"

And so with lemur in tow, Sokka made a short stop in the woods, making ready to start a fire and cook a lemur. It would be wise to stop him. Otherwise, he'll be searching the town for people from his tribe and you know, a reason for why he has wings now.

Not really. My Uncle's the one who got all the stuff for the house. He's really cool, but he's not here right now, so you can't meet him.

[ EVER. Because of obvious reasons she's not going to even bother explaining. ]

This is Luceti, and there's a barrier around it. You're not gonna be able to leave here - although the barrier's further out, you probably shouldn't go out in the woods and stuff alone. My Uncle and Gran Gran and Grandpa all say there are bears and stuff out there, so I don't go here alone. I only came here 'cause I saw you from up there and you had Momo and were being suspicious.

Please. I'm a hunter from the Water Tribe. I'm not scared of a few bears. And I can handle a little barrier too.

What about talking bears?

There aren't talking bears.

Are so. Lots of the animals in Luceti from Luceti talk. Wanna go find a bird? I don't think we should find a bear.

...They're kinda dumb though. I mean, they're not like us. Or even Momo, right, Momo?

[He pats her on the head.]

You're a cute kid, but I think I should get back to trying to get home.

Have you believed anything I've said, U - Sokka?

[ Ikki drops his hand, although just to spin her staff with both hands, firing off a blast of air at a tree - harmless, but enough to shake it. ]

I don't make up stories!! At least not unless I say I'm making them up and I'm actually playing but that's not what I'm doing right now! And anyway you'll want to come back to town 'cause someone you're looking for is probably still there.

[... okay, she just shot air out of her staff. What the hell.]

... who are you? And how did you know my name? [Because he knows he didn't introduce himself.]

[ ...AND THEN SHE ACCIDENTALLY OUTED HERSELF, why was being from the future so hard. ]

I already told you who I am! I'm Ikki. ...And I always knew your name. Sorry. You should have introduced yourself to me and then it would have been okay. That's not how I normally call you, but you're not going to believe me if I explain it. But how'd you catch Momo? I bet Momo came right to you, right?

You're not making any sense. How did you just do... whatever you did?

[With the... air. And stuff.]

I'm an airbender. I said that.

The airbenders all died out. A hundred years ago. Everyone knows that.

No, they didn't. I mean, most of them did. But one of them survived. The Avatar survived.

Oh really? Because if he survived, he must be having a nice long vacation while the rest of us are at war. So thanks for that, Avatar.

Don't talk about him like that!! That's my Grandpa. And he came back! He'll come back. It wasn't something he meant to do, anyway. He got frozen.

Frozen. Right. Well you can tell your grandpa if he wants to help anybody, the Fire Nation is that way. [He points towards the east and starts to walk away.]

...Hey! Where are you going? You're not really going out in the woods, are you?

[ Argh she can't even tattle on him. ]

I said you wouldn't believe me, but you asked anyway. I can't leave you alone if you're going to go do stuff when you don't even know the stuff to look out for!!

Oh, I'm real worried now. But I think I'll be fine without a five year old around to protect me.

I'm eight!!!

And Katara's going to be in the village, not out somewhere else. So if you go there, it's the wrong way, so there. [ that is pretty much the only other thing she can think of to say to encourage him not to go live in the woods which sounds dangerous. ]

[And now she has his attention.]

Katara? You've seen her?

No, but I know where she would have woken up. And it's back where I was trying to get you to go in the first place! The house. Maybe the clinic, if she remembers stuff, but I bet she's just in town or near the house, or even in the room she'd have woken up in.

... you're really confusing, you know that?

It comes with being a mystical spirit guide. You're supposed to be confusing when you're a mystical spirit guide. Because that's what mystical spirit guides DO.

[ Now she's making stuff up. Obviously. ]

But anyway, will you stop being silly and come back to town now?

[Ikki really does not know her uncle very well. Spirit guide?]

Riiiight, see, I already have a spirit guide. It's called Boomerang. And it says that I need to go that way. [He points in the direction he came from.]

[ MAYBE SHE WANTS TO BE A SPIRIT GUIDE, SOKKA. Or a princess. Hold on. ]

Can I be a princess, then? I want to be a princess!
