The white lotus
A/N: glad too see more conversations in comments. Here is the next chapter. Enjoy!
(Y/N P.O.V)
I woke up briefly, my hearing a little dulled. I heard two guys talking about a flying beast 'Appa?...'. I then heard them talking about selling it in Ba sing se. Before I passed out again I heard them talking about just dumping me, since I was useless to them blind. I passed out again, when I awoke I didn't sense anything but desert. "Now where should I go?"
It was still day, I could feel the heat from the sun, but it maybe the next day seeing as I could've been out for awhile. I got up and found my satchel still attached 'good I may need this'. I began walking, in what I hope was west. I walked for hours before hearing voices. I found the entrance and a sign I stepped on. I turned the sign over and felt the words carved into it, it read 'Misty palms oasis'. I smiled at that, 'at least I know where I am, and can get some help'. I started to go to the canteen that me and the others went to before we went into the desert. I just entered the canteen and went to the table that the white lotus member was at. Before I reached the table I heard Iroh talking with the white lotus member, and from the sound of it he was also a member. "I always tried to tell you that pi sho is more than just a game."
I walked out. "How right you are, Iroh."
Before I could continue, or let them talk, a guy interrupted. "It's over, you two fugitives are coming with me."
I recognized that voice, it's the voice of the tournament owner that held earth rumble six, then the lotus member spoke. "I knew it, you two are criminals with a giant bounty on your heads."
Zuko:"I thought you said he was going to help."
Iroh:"He is, just watch."
WLM(white lotus member):"You think your going to capture them and collect all that gold."
Man:"Gold?"
I felt all the other occupants get up. "Uhh, maybe we shouldn't."
I recognized that voice too, it was that earthbender, Yu. Why were they here? Then we started to leave, As we were leaving I heard them fighting. ' Good that should buy us some time'. We walked for maybe five minutes, I could feel the cool air, it must be night. When we stopped we entered a building. "It is an honor to welcome two such high ranking members of the order of the white lotus, being grandmasters you two must know so many secrets."
Zuko:"Now that you've played pi sho are you going to do some flower arranging, or is someone in this club going to offer some real help? And what is he doing here?"
He directed that last comment at me I am sure. "You must forgive my nephew, he is not an initiate, and has little appreciation for the cryptic arts."
The white lotus member knocked on the door, and I heard a sliding from a viewing hole. "Who knocks at the garden gate?"
Me&Iroh:"One who has eaten the fruit and tasted it's mystery's."
We then walked in, when the door closed Iroh went back and told Zuko to wait outside in the shop. We then took our seats. "What brings two grandmasters out here? Is there trouble or are looking for information?"
Iroh:"I came here in need of assistance, me and my nephew are trying to avoid capture by the fire nation."
You:"I am lost, I came here with the avatar, but was attacked along with our bison. I heard talk of a flying beast being sold in Ba sing se, it might be him. So I need to head there, since I don't know where my friends are."
WLM:"Grandmaster Iroh, it would be best if you went to Ba sing se too, it is safer there don't you agree?"
Iroh:"Yes that would be a good idea, but we must find transportation first."
With that we discussed how we would get to ba sing se. after hours of discussion we had a concrete plan.
Once we had finished our meeting we went out to leave. "What's going on, is the club meeting over?"
Iroh:"Everything is taken care of, we are heading to Ba sing se."
Zuko:"Ba sing se? Why would we go to the earth kingdom capital?"
WLM:"The city is full of refugees , no one will notice two more."
Iroh:"We can hide in plain sight there, and it's the safest place in the world from the fire nation, even I couldn't break through to the city."
Then another person entered. "I have the passports for our guests, but there are two men out on the street looking for them."
I heard the voices outside, it was Xin Fu and Yu again. "Well they seem to really want you captured."
Iroh:"Yes, there must be another way to get out of here."
WLM:"We can get you out, we just have to do some potting first."
I sighed at this. 'I am not going to like this'. I started to help them empty three pots. "This is no time to be gardening."
You:"Just wait, you will see."
After about twenty minutes we were ready. "Ok, so now what, have you finished planting or whatever you were doing?"
Iroh:"Yes, and we just have to get in."
Zuko:"Get in what? Those pots why?"
You:"It is the best way for us to leave without notice, it's not my first pick but it will do, so get in."
We then started to get in. Once we had the dirt over our heads I couldn't 'see' as well. 'Yep, just as I figured, could be worse though'. I then felt the cart we were on get pulled away. We were on our way to the outskirts of town. When we were far enough away we got out. "This is as far as I go you must walk the rest."
You:"Thank you for your help."
We bowed and he left. "Ok, we should get going."
Zuko:"Why is he coming?"
You:"I am standing right here."
Iroh:"He is coming because his destiny is where we are heading as well."
You:"Plus, I need help since I can't read a map, and you may need my help there."
Zuko:"Fine, So how do we get there?"
Iroh:"We take a boat that other refugees take, and be there in a day or two."
Zuko:"How do we find the boats?"
You:"I have a map."
With that I pulled out a map and handed it to them. The three of us then started to the secret refugee port.
