Meeting Aang, and Sky begins to adjust

Sokka's p.o.v.


Sky thankfully recovered quickly, so I gathered she has a lot of stamina and we questioned her little because of how sad she seemed to talk about the past. So we new very little of the pretty girl except her name. But as soon as she was well she started volunteering and pitching in around the tribe. She asked lots of questions at first because there's a lot she hadn't learned. But sometimes she'd surprise me, like the day I brought home a ton of fish and she set to work helping me clean them.

She's currently helping Katara sew, as I enter and I usual she gives me that sweet smile that seemed just for me. At least in my mind it is.

"Gran Gran I'm gonna go out hunting.", I say and I watch her head shoot up as her eyes light up.

"Your going hunting!", Sky says excitedly another surprise.

"Yea of course, I need to get some more meat.", I say eyebrow raised.

"Can I help, I haven't been able to go hunting since before Dad died?", she says hopefully as her eyes which swirl with colors in excitement look at me.

"Sky you can hunt?", my sister asks.

"Ya, my dad had no boys and wanted a hunting partner so he taught me. I'm pretty accurate with a bow in my hands.", she says looking so cute right now, and come to think of it this is the most she's said about her family since she's been here.

Come to think of it, I've never seen her this excited.

"Well normally girls just get in my way, but I'll try you out this time.", I say trying to stay cool.

"Really, I can come?", she says jumping up and hugging me "Thank you so much Sokka your the best.", at which I feel my ears heat up and catch my sister and grandmother smirk at me as I notice she smells pretty too.

Before we went out I got ahold of one of the bows that were left behind and a quiver of arrows, and when I handed it to her it was.

"Sokka it's awesome.", she says admiring the bow excitedly as she runs her hand along it.

"Are you sure you can shoot? Most girls can't", I say as she looks at me amusement in her eyes.

"I've been holding a bow since before I was out of diapers, It was required learning. Dad called it part of my heritage.", she say testing the bow.

"Well then lets see what you can do.", I say smirking curious if she's bluffing as I pull her to some targets.

I then seat her a 25 feet and she rolls her eyes. "Now show me."

At that she pulls the arrow in minutes she's got the center of the bulls-eye, followed by a few other shots ending in a smiley face made out of arrows. "Well.", she says.

"Wow, did not see that coming.", I say.

"Well boomerang guy, ready to get some meat.", she says smirking as her eyes twinkle.

Sky's pov...

Soon we were on the hunt, after putting Sokka in his place on my ability to shoot. I then go into hunter mode as we go to get some meat for the tribe. I always loved hunting and it was how me and dad bonded, and having someone to hunt with seemed to be a great way to pay Sokka back after he saved me.

I couldn't help wondering how long I'd be here before Aang appeared.

With two hunters finding quarry was faster due to two sets of eyes as we found some seals rather quickly in a group. We were also able to get two large ones to carry back since it was two of us. Sokka seemed a little shocked as I pulled my hunting knife out and did my seals gutting while he did his.

"You know how to gut too.", he says.

"Kill it, gut it, process it. yep.", I say focused on my task.

"Most girls are disgusted by the smell.", he says.

"Ya smart guy, how many girls in your tribe hunt?", I say knowing he's being chauvinistic and can't help it.

We get the animals back to the village after and get to work completing packing them out into meat portions and jerky's or what not.

"So um Sky would you be interested in coming hunting next time.", he says after all is said and done as he scratches the back of his head nervously.

"If you don't think I'd be in the way, I'd love too.", I say smiling back happily as we walk to "warrior" training.

"Ya, I doubt you'd be in the way, your actually an amazing hunter, and it was nice to not have to do everything alone for a change.", he says "I'm sorry when you said you could I doubted you."

"Apology accepted.", I say as we sit down because we're here early and this is when Katara does her bending practice.

"So Sky, where are you from.", he asks.

"I don't think you'd believe me. I say putting my hands in my lap.", I say "I'm still wondering if I'm dreaming and passed our on the warehouse building. Because where I'm from you and your sister are fiction characters in children's stories. Crazy right?" at which I stare off.

Sokka's p.o.v.

"Hold off I'm a children't story character, why?", I say "That does sound crazy, but it's pretty boring here." I say as she sighs, but I can tell by her confusion that she's not making it up.

"Sokka, in my world you and your sister go on a quest that saves the entire world from the fire nation.", she says looking at me dead serious in her look.

"Sky you said you made a wish before ending up here, what was it?", I ask suddenly curious as she looks.

"Well after I lost my dad, I felt alone, and I was. I wished to find where I belonged. Simple as that.", she says sounding sad again "Come to think of it I was, my tribe abandoned me after my family was gone. I had no family left, and until you and Katara I never had real friends cause I moved around with my Dad so much."

"Sky I promise you this, I won't let you be alone again.", I say suddenly looking at her "Your part of our tribe now. " At that I hug her tight as she hugs back. "Thanks Sokka your the best.", she says.

"Hey of course, know what you should come with me and Katara fishing tomorrow.", I say as she looks up at me smiling.

"I'd like that.", she says cocking her head cutely.

Sky's p.o.v. ...

The next day the three of us were crammed in a canoe and I watched Sokka drool as his sister teased him and waterbended a fish over his head as he was trying to get a different one. Man does that mean we're meeting Aang today? I watch as he pops the water bubble getting himself wet as he's hit with the fish and he whines.

"Katara, how come everytime you play with magic water I get wet." , he asks as I hide a smirk behind my mittens before Katara goes in her tirade.

"It's not magic doofus , its bending and its a ", She argues

"Ya ya if I had freaky powers I'd keep my weirdness to myself.", Sokka says.

"I'm weird, your the one who makes muscles at your self every time you see your reflection.", Katara teases as he does it and I giggle.

"Well I'm", he starts as we get startled hitting some rapids and Sokka tries to paddle us through while Katara just yells directions and doesn't use hers.

"Katara shut it and hand me your paddle!", I snap surprising her as I take it and start helping Sokka through the rapids trying to keep us safe.

Eventually we hit anyway and go flying and land on an ice flow. "That sucked so bad.", I say as Sokka helps me up.

"You call that left!", Katara yells. "Why didn't you water bend it away!", Sokka shouts.

"Shut it both of you arguing won't get us out of here!", I shout.

"I should of known better than to bring girls they ruin everything!", Sokka say as I'm now debating throwing him a beating since in the series he couldn't fight to well yet.

"Excuse me! Ever since mom died I do everything, and Sky's been nothing but helpful to you and me with both our chores. By the way have you smelled your socks. Not pleasant.", Katara says as Sokka tries to calm her down as her bending starts to bust the ice burg.

Shoot she's got too calm down.

Before I know it the burg bust and were shot back.

"Did I do that?", she says.

"Nope it was bigfoot.", I say

"Yea that was you being freaky.", Sokka says.

Then a glowing iceburg from inside comes to the surface and out comes Aang.

"Oh Shiznit, there's a glowing kid in there.", I say.

"He's alive we got to help him.", Katara says taking Sokka's club and hitting the ice as he yells Katara stop and I bunch of air shoots out at us as Sokka covers us protectively while a beam shoots in the sky.

Then the glowing boy floats before dropping to the ground as me and Katara run to him, but I let the waterbender lift his head as Sokka pokes him.

"Seriously, he's like 12.",I say pushing the spear away rolling my eyes.

"Come closer..", Aang says as he opens his eyes and Katara complies "Can you go penguin sledding with me?", then he jumps up smiling as she says "Ya I guess."

"Hey what are you doing he probably alerted the entire fire nation.", Sokka argues. He's right partly but he don't need to know that.

"What's your name?", Katara asks and he sneezes ten feet in the air.

"Aang", he says.

"Wow you just went like ten feet.", Sokka says.

"I think it was higher than that.", I say smirking.

"Your an airbender.", Katara says as Appa growl startling them and getting Aang's attention.

"Appa you ok buddy.", he says.

"What's that?", Sokka says.

"It's a flying bison.", I say excitedly as I circumvent Sokka and run up to pet him. "He's so adorable."

"Ya like she said.", Aang says.

Then Appa sneezes on Sokka, and I giggle as Sokka acts grossed out while Aang says "It washes out."

Then Sokka does a worm crawl to get the bison snot off.

"Ya ya, that's Katara my flying sister, I'm Sokka, and the girl cooing at the bison is Sky.", he says.

"Yo.", I say before going back to the bison who seems to like the attention.

"Airbender's, bison, I'm going home this is too weird.", Sokka says.

"How the canoe bit the dust?", I say.

"I can give you a ride.", Aang says.

"Really, that would be sweet!", I say scrambling up as I offer a hand to Katara.

"Hey, what are you doing when if he alerted the fire nation.", Sokka shouts again.

"Ya wanna wait around for some other monster to give you a ride?", Katara says

as Sokka grudgingly gets on.

"Alright first time flyers keep all hands inside the bison.", I shout with glee as Aang chuckles.

"Yip, Yip.", shouts Aang but Appa swims instead.

"Wow that was amazing.", Sokka says sarcastically as I smack the back of his head.

"Be nice.", I say as he yelps.

"Appa's just tired aren't you boy.", Aang says. Eventually I lean on sleeping Sokka and fake sleeping as Katara asks him about the Avatar before taking a nap too.

"Why'd you lie?", I say startling the airbender.

"I didn't lie.", he says.

"Don't worry I won't tell, it can't be easy being an Avatar.", I say " But don't lie to me, I'm not easily fooled."

"Thanks Sky.", he says as I rest up against The side against Sokka's shoulder. Dang Appa's softer then I thought.
