Author's pov:

"So.. I don't know which I'm more interested to hear first.. The Princess part or that Avatar thing.. Is it something edible?" Vinnie thought out loud making Mania almost choke to her laughter while Rise and Paris blushed right away. Paris tried to hold her laugh while Rise's eyebrow started twitching.

"It depends.." Mania laughed but got a glare from her friend before she started laughing too while crossing her arms. "If you want this to go back to your bedroom stuff, just make it clear.." Rise smirked, making him cough when he realized what he had just said. The other two males started laughing while Charley just rolled her eyes.

"I'm the Avatar.. Not some cabbage you can buy from the cabbage guy's cart!" Rise said and in the end of her sentence her voice changed a bit to a lower one that clearly wasn't hers. And at the same time her eyes flashed for the same time. "Ri-Ri.. Are you okay?" Mania asked while the males and Charley looked like they had just seen a ghost.

"Yes, why?" She leaned her head a bit right while looking at them confused. "Why do they look like I had made a backflip while being on fire or something?" She asked, making Throttle chuckle. "Maybe that something, again.. Is it normal for you to have glowing eyes and change your voice like that?" He asked, making her look at her friends who nodded at her.

"That happened.. Was it one of your past lives trying to take over?" Paris asked, making her sigh. "Must been Kyoshi.. Or Korra.. Either way, I should probably explain myself but I seriously don't know where to start.." Rise sighed and leaned against the back seat.

"Maybe your names?" Modo suggested making the three of the women realize that. "Oh right!! My apologies.." Rise said but when Paris talked, Modo was carefully looking at her. "I forgot that totally since we already told them to Charley and she told your names in the car.. My name is Paris" Paris smiled and blushed when she noticed that Modo was looking at her. She was still a bit afraid of him because of his earlier acts.

"I'm Rise, Avatar Rise" Rise smiled and then it was Mania's turn. "Mania is my name.." She smirked, making Vinnie chuckle. "You clearly aren't from here either! Do you like rice or where does your name come from? And same for you two, where did you get your names? They sound different even for ears as big as ours!" He said, making Paris giggle.

"I actually do, ever since I was just a kid.. But my parents told me that instead of having the c in the name, they ended up choosing the s because my mother had a feeling that I would do something big in my life.. Later it also meant that the new Avatar had risen again after a very long time! And also it doesn't mean that you notice the baby being Avatar right away when they are newborn, the powers will show up later when growing up.." She explained making the guys nod. Throttle listened to her very carefully while Vinnie just heard half of it as usual when the topic was something other than himself.

"And now we come to the princess part.. My father is the leader of our tribe, the Northern water tribe that is still left from all four great nations. When the Great Wars between benders and none benders started, it whipped out all the benders, including three Avatars before Rise, at a very young age.. When the latest of them died with the last benders, everyone thought that it was the end of bending. But after many many years, Rise was born and for some reason she was the new Avatar who is meant to be protected more than the royal family as much as the old traditions that we still have from the past. That's also why we wanted to live as a tribe and protect our dying culture even if we are not benders. And since my father is the leader of our tribe, it makes me the princess. I got my name from my mother since her very much loved grandmother was originally from the city of Paris, the city of love, which she also fell in love with while traveling to it once! Anyways.. I don't have any siblings but I have known Rise for my whole life so it feels like she is my sister. Like Mania too!" Paris explained, and the mice understood her better since it sounded so familiar to them for some parts.

"Yeah! Even if I got to know you guys at school.. But yes, about me.. Shortly told, I'm just a woman who specializes in weapons.. I can handle any kind of weapon without any problems at all! Maybe that's one of the reasons I hang out with these two. Avatar happens to have a bad habit about getting into the middle of action! And I don't mind that.. In any kind of way.. From where we come to my name, Mania, you never get enough of me!" Mania explained and in the end she winked at Modo, making Vinnie whistle and the gray furred male cough, not sure if he was blushing or not since it couldn't be seen under the fur if you weren't very close to him or knew him yet better.

"Oh, there's no need to be an Avatar to get in the middle of action.. Just hang around with these three" Charley said and nodded towards the males who laughed at her. "I'm sure we'll get along just fine then" Rise laughed but then Throttle talked while looking at her. "You guys talk about tribes, bending and that Avatar stuff.. Would now be a perfect time to explain it?" He said while Charley got up to serve some drinks for all of them. Guys had bottles of root beers as normal and Mania wanted to try one too while Rise, Paris and she ended up having some juice.

"Thanks!" Rise smiled at Charley before turning back to look at Throttle. "Yeah.. Maybe there could be.. Bending is.. Umm.. Bending is shortly saying.. About controlling the elements.. And normally a bender controls just one element from four of them. But there's one who can control all four of them, and that's the Avatar, me, for now.. And Avatar is also a person that brings harmony to the world as well as being a mediator between humans and spirits" She explained, trying to sound as clear as possible, but it was hard to explain someone that knew nothing about what she had known for the most of her life.

"The elements are Fire, Air, Water and Earth.." Paris answered while looking at Vinnie whose expression was clearly asking the question. "For now?" Modo asked, making Mania nod at him. "When Avatar dies, he or she will be born again. A kind of reincarnation.. It's called the Avatar circle" Rise tried to explain it, not sure if she understood it truly either after all.

"So.. You live over and over again..? Do you remember your past lives? What was that Kyoshi thing you mentioned earlier?" Modo asked while trying to process the whole thing. "Kyoshi is one of my past lives.. So umm.. When the Avatar rebirths, they are always totally different persons with different names, personalities and everything! And Avatar has a different first element, the kind of birth element.. The element they connect most and the elements always go in the same order, that is Fire, Air, Water and Earth like Paris said" Rise smiled at her friend for remembering that detail very sharply.

"How do you know their names? If the benders are whipped out?" Vinnie blurted out, making them turn to look at him while he was leaning against his arms, elbow still on the table. "Just say when there's too much information at once.. But yeah.." Rise sighed before taking a sip from her drink. "That eye flashing thing.. That was sort of an Avatar state.. Which is a very powerful state that the Avatar can go to, to control all the powers and connect with their past lives and sometimes the past lives might take over to talk to people that live now.. Like Kyoshi had something to say to you guys.. Usually it happens uncontrollably, but Avatar might be able to learn how to control it.. And talk with their past lives, if they need guidance" She explained and was clearly getting exhausted about all the talking.

"Shortly the Avatar state is where she goes completely mad, eyes glowing and her powers take over and she destroys everything!" Mania chuckled, making her friends glare at her. "What?! It is!" She tried to defend herself. "Kinda, but that sounded rude!" Paris growled before tasting her drink for the first time. She smiled when she found it tasting good. Her smile made Modo smile too, which didn't get unnoticed by Throttle.

"Well.. You can tell the other things later, I think there's much more to know that can't be told just one time.." He said, making Rise nod at him. "But why are you women here?" Modo asked, making the Avatar turn to look at him. "Our tribe's chief, Paris' father, got to know that there was something very dangerous but odd happening here.. And he thought that it would be good for my training to go to help people here in Chicago.." She said but then added. "I'm not fully yet the Avatar since I can control only two elements so far.. Water was my first element and the Earth second.. I have also learned one sub-element, Ice.. But I'll explain that later.. I'm honestly getting tired now.." She said before yawning. "Sorry.. Jet lag is hitting.." She said, making the others nod since they understood why she felt tired right now.

"Where did you ladies come from then?" Vinnie asked while finally giving Paris her peace by taking off his elbow from the table and leaning backwards. "We are from the North.. Small village near the North Pole.. Not many people know it since we are living peacefully in our tribe.." Rise explained but then Mania talked. "I'm not originally from the Water tribe but I was adopted there, so that's a place I call home too" She smiled at her friends but then the white male got shivers. "You mean.. That cold North? Hrrr.. How can anyone live there?!" He was getting cold just for the thought of it, making Rise roll her eyes with Charley.

"As much as there's life on Mars.. And how many actual North do you know exactly?" She growled, making the mice chuckle. "Understood, Rise ma'am.." Modo said, making her smile and nod at him. "But maybe we should get going.. Back to Uncle Jack's place after buying some food that we can eat there" Rise said and got up. "Don't forget my weaponry! I just can't understand why didn't any of those border lemons let me have my traditional weapons here!!" Mania grunted, making Charley look at her confused.

"Border lemons?" She asked, making Rise laugh while Mania headed already to the Garage side, she wanted to take a look at the bikes before leaving. "She gave the officers a new nickname.. Didn't appreciate that her weapons were taken.. But luckily Paris got to send them back home so she didn't totally lose them.. Now we need to go get some new ones for her" Rise said and then bowed to Charley and the mice, her other hand over her other hand that was in fist. The Biker Mice and Charley found that a bit odd but also quite a polite act.

"Thank you, for being so kind to us, helping us and with everything" She said, making them nod at her, but when Throttle was about to say something to her, they heard Mania shouting from the Garage while the bikes were beeping. That made them turn around and run straight away to the Garage, just to see the weapon master standing on a high shelf while the bikes were moving like they were startled about something.

"Hey Lil' Hoss! What's wrong?!" Modo said while walking to pet his bike like the other mice did too. "They are alive?!?!" Mania panicked on the shelf, she got totally frightened about their bikes moving on their own. "Should I even ask how did you even get there?" Charley wondered while Rise just casually walked to help her back down, like those bikes were no big deal to her.

"Of course they are! Did you really expect us to drive with some Earthen bikes that aren't close to being as macho as we are?" Vinnie said after the bikes had calmed down. "But what made them wild? Was it you, Mania?" Throttle asked after the black haired woman had got down the shelf. "N-No.." She said and acted like she wasn't there anymore. "Mania.. Spit it out.." Paris lifted her hands on her waist and tapped the floor with her other leg.

"I just wanted to take a look at them! I didn't know that they didn't like being touched.. I got scared when one of them moved, then I heard another weird sound that made me scream and they all started to move.." Mania explained, but Charley was about to ask what sound, she heard her phone ringing. "That sound!" Mania said, making the mechanic laugh. "Oh that.. I have quite a special ringtone in my phone.. Sorry if it startled you" She asked and walked to answer the phone to the living room.

"Do you guys even know what a phone is?" Vinnie asked, making Rise chuckle. "Of course we know! We are living in the same century with you after all.. I should have asked that from you since you guys are from Mars, but it seems that you guys know it already" She said but then Paris added. "But it's one of those luxury things to have in our tribe, not many of them have it.. It's not as usual for us than for people here.." She said, making the males nod. "We got to know many new things when we got here.." Modo started to say but then Paris' phone rang in her bag.

"And we have one with us since Paris is the princess. Her father demanded to have it when we were leaving.." Mania said while Paris picked up. "Hey father!" She said and took a few steps away from them to hear better. "Yes.. She's here with me.. Yes.. We are safe.. All three of us.. Yes.. Not yet.. No.. Dad!!" Paris was blushing while talking on the phone. "Seems like her father reminds her about how men might act.." Mania smirked but then they heard her silent up. Charley walked back to the room after finishing her call.

"What's with the phone lines now? Is some telemarketer contacting her too?" She asked, making Rise shake her head. "Chief, her father, called.." She said, making the mechanic nod. "What?!" Paris gasped, making them turn to look at her again confused. "Yes.. I'll tell her.. Thanks father.. I'll keep in touch.. Bye!" Paris said after hanging up the call. She sighed deeply before turning to look at Rise. Her expression made her swallow deeply.

"What did the Chief want?" She asked, making Paris look a bit sad. "He had got to know that your package.. The Delivery.. He ran off!" Paris said, making the Avatar take a few steps back, trying to find something where to lean against, but then she felt Throttle right behind her back. "Sorry.." She mumbled before sitting down on the floor, right in front of him. "What's wrong? What happened?" The tan furred male asked while looking at her and then Paris.

"My partner is gone.." Rise sobbed while trying to hold her tears. "What?" Throttle took a while to understand it. "Oh.. She's taken.." Vinnie whispered to Modo who nodded to him. "Did they say where that happened?" Mania asked while looking at Paris. "At Chicago harbor.." Paris said, making the Avatar lift her head up and turn to look at her.

"So they managed to take him here already?! That fast?! He is somewhere here?!" She didn't know if she was panicking or what the feeling was right now. "Yes but the paperwork is still unfinished.. Rise, wait!!" Paris said while putting her phone back into her bag, but the Avatar had already got up from the floor and was running towards the outside doors.

"There's no need for paperwork if my partner is missing!! I need to find him now!" She growled but soon they heard a sound that made each of them freeze to their places. Even Vinnie stayed right there, next to his bike, unmoved. "What's that?" Modo asked and for some reason, the sound made him a bit afraid too, as well as his bros. And there weren't many times when the Biker mice felt that feeling.

"It's him!! My boy is coming to mama!! Where can I get these huge doors open?" Rise was smiling and hurrying to get out of the Garage. Charley pressed the control's button to open the door before the Avatar would get an idea to smash her way through them like the mice usually did with their bikes. The Sound could be heard now louder and it was coming closer and closer. And that sound.. Was howling..

"Lightning!! Come here my baby boy!!" Rise ran to the street and opened her arms ready. She was holding back her tears when she saw her animal guide running towards her, jumping over some cars that were on his way like they were some tiny stones. "Is.. Is that a wolf?!" Charley gasped and got behind Vinnie who prepared his gun while looking at the animal too. "Not a regular kind.. Or since when have they been that big?!" Throttle said his eyes widened.

"That's not a wolf, that's a beast!!" Vinnie said while they all were looking at the running animal that came closer and closer towards them. Mania was smirking at their reaction while Paris took her phone again and texted his father about that, they had found the lost animal now, or.. It had found them actually.

"My baby boy!!" Rise finally cried when the giant black wolf ran into her arms and started to lick her face while his tail was swinging happily and fast. "Baby? If that's a puppy.. I will book the first ticket to Mars because I don't want to see that thing as a grown up!" Vinnie gulped while looking at his bros who nodded as an agreement. "Guys! Stop it.. That's Rise's animal guide" Paris smiled when the wolf fell on his back as a sign for the Avatar to pet him. The Animal truly acted like a puppy even if he was even taller than Modo.

"Animal guide?" Throttle asked while they were following the scene. Charley was afraid but took a peak behind Vinnie's shoulder. "Yes! Every Avatar has one. An Animal that they bond with at a very young age and it lasts through their lifetime" Mania explained while the wolf was now laying on top of the woman, almost burying her with his fur. "Lightning.. Let me breathe please! I know it has been a while buddy.. I'm so happy to see you too!" Rise laughed while hugging the animal and whipping her tears away.

"Does his name have something to do with his speed?" Throttle rubbed his jaw while looking at the animal. He definitely wasn't a fan of it either but he was fine with it sooner than the other males or Charley. "Sort of, but mostly because of his bright yellow eyes.. You don't want to face them alone in the dark" Mania smirked while having shivers going down her spine now.

When the Avatar got up with the wolf, she petted him while walking to her friends. "He found me.. I'm not surprised but gosh I got worried when Paris said that he had gone missing during the transportation!" Rise sighed, making the mechanic and the mice realize what the package had been. But when the wolf noticed and smelled the mice that big, he started growling immediately.

"Lightning! Don't! They are friends!" Rise said while patting the wolf's side, but then he saw the gun in Vinnie's hand, he saw them as a threat and jumped straight towards the one he thought would be most dangerous. And by that, his animal instincts meant Modo, the biggest from the three of the Martians.

"Lightning no!!" Rise gasped when Modo took a step backwards, not preparing his hand gun but lifting his mechanic arm up, towards the wolf's already opened mouth that revealed his giant and very sharp teeth. "Noo!!! Your teeth don't work on metal!" Rise shouted but reacted fast. She took her earthbending position and lifted a ground wall in front of Modo who fell on his butt because of the earth grumbling. The Wall made the wolf hit his head straight to it and collapse onto the ground. Even if the animal got unconscious, it was better for now than get all of his teeth smashed because of Modo's mechanic arm.

"Are you okay, Big Fella?" Throttle asked while helping the gray furred mouse up from the ground with Vinnie's help. "Yeah.. But did you see his teeth? I seriously don't want to fight him! How is he even that big?" Modo wondered while swiping his jeans clean. "Sorry.. I didn't expect that to happen.." Rise sighed while patting gently the wolf's head who was waking up from the short time unconscious.

"Why did he even attack?" Charley wondered while checking if Modo was okay. "For somehow that just makes perfect sense since she attacked us too when we first met.." Throttle chuckled, making all of them laugh. Rise started to scratch Lightning's jaw making him act like a puppy again. "He is four years old.. Still a kid if asked from me! But I think he counted you as a threat since.. Oh well.. He hasn't seen any mouse that big.. And attacking the biggest one first.." Rise explained but Throttle got the point already.

"It would be easier to take us two down next.. Smart animal" He said and slowly decided to get closer to the black wolf. "Throttle what are you doing?!" Charley gasped and Vinnie tried to pull Throttle back but didn't manage to do it. "If we are going to be friends with these women, we need to get used to this big guy.. Hey.. I'm not a snack, you know.." He said while lifting his hand up to the wolf who started to sniff it curiously. He was still unsure about those new very odd creatures, but since Rise saw them being fine, he calmed down too. And that feeling was both sided if asked from the Martian brothers too!

"Well.. Maybe this is going to go well after all.." Rise sighed but then Paris talked. "The paperwork is still undone.. You need to get him back to the harbor.. These people are very strict about that if he carries any diseases.." She said, making the Avatar snort. "My partner doesn't carry anything more dangerous than me!!" She said while climbing to sit on the wolf's back, right behind his shoulder blades.

"Carry.. you?" Vinnie asked, making her laugh and cross her arms. "How else would I travel?" She said while patting the wolf's head who barked at her loudly. "He has a strong voice.." Modo chuckled before slowly trying to follow Throttle's lead and get closer to the animal. "Yeah.. And usually Avatars from water tribes have a polar bear dog as an animal guide, but Lightning chose me and I don't mind that! I love him and he loves me.." She said while leaning down to hug the wolf, almost vanishing behind the black fur.

"A Polar bear dog.." Charley's eyes got wide even just for a thought about one. "Yeah! Almost as big as this little guy.." Rise smiled while petting the black wolf. "Little? I see that girl has her perspectives upside down.. What would be big for her?" Vinnie whispered to Modo, making him chuckle. "Lightning is a Northern Black wolf, the males are always this big! It might have something to do with the Polar bear dogs too.. But I'm not completely sure about it" Rise explained while being truly happy about seeing her animal guide after a long time.

"So.. Talking about partners.. You didn't actually mean a boyfriend?" Vinnie asked curiously while looking at Throttle who turned to look at him. The White furred male winked at him, while still having safe distance to the animal, with Charley behind his back again. "No! Why would I?" Rise laughed but then Mania talked. "Normally they get scared of her powers or Lightning.. I have lost count of which one has been scarier for the guys that have tried to get to know her" She laughed but the Avatar just snorted.

"I haven't had many guys around me even if you make it sound like that I had!" She defended herself while the animal laid down, her still sitting on his back. "But umm.. Rise.." Charley said while finally managing to get a bit closer. "Yes?" She turned to look at the mechanic. "How are you exactly supposed to get this wolf to Uncle's Jack's place, where's no pets allowed?" She asked, making the Avatar gulp while she turned to look at her two friends who realized it too.

They had over a couple of meters tall black wolf there, who might also have caused some panic during his run across the city of Chicago from the harbor to the Last Chance Garage. Even if he had probably found the Avatar by her smell, he still was an animal without any kind of permission to be in the country yet. Avatar and her friends were there to help people, but how would that be possible if the Avatar causes more problems than helping so far? The Avatar who still had her training going on too..
