Orha-EarthBender (Master Blacksmith)

I walked out of the shop to look at a side-ramp made from dirt."We wont ever sell anything if we are stuck here." I thought to myself. I stoped and ran into the shop once again, i went up the stairs to my room and opened a compartment in my wall, I reached inside and pulled out a FireNation guard jacket I had been assigned a week ago.

"Yes, thats right. I work for the fire nation, so I can get food, supplies and the medicine for my father." I thought to myself.

I put the jacket in a side pack and headed out the door,

"Where are you going?" My father asked, laying in the room paralel to the front door.

"I'm going on a errand, I'll be back in a few hours." I told him.

"Ok, dont get into trouble." he joked.

"... alright..." I said under my breath.

I took a boat to an island Far west of Ba-Sing-Se, where the FN was to be attacking.

Red death(master of fire and earth)
-----------------------------------
while on the sand-sailor sha-mo gave me food to eat
and we talked about what happened to us since we last met

..he also commented on my mask(which i wasnt wearing)=D

and soon enough, we reached the end of the desert

"well, thats as far as we go" said sha-mo

"thanks" i replied
"for everything"
"i will come back one day"
"i know it"

we all said our good byes, and i walked off towards the ferry station
when i entered the ferry station, i remembered these ferrys arrive every 20 minutes
and they take 45 minutes to get to the ba sing se train station

i need to get to ba sing se faster
i decided to take the serpent's pass

as i entered the serpents pass, i started running across the rocks
rocks fell over me as i ran,
but i evaded them all

then i reached a part of the pass, that was entirely broken
i looked around and noticed a part of the serpent swimming around

"i am not going to become fish food, and my friends are not gunna become fire nation toast!!" i said

i moved back, then ran foward towards the broken part of the pass
at the right time, i jumped, i knew i wouldnt make it, by just jumping
i knew it all, along,
so i boosted my jumping height higher and higher by constantly shooting flame balls out of my arms and feet

the serpent came up and tried to eat me, but i was too high,
and the serpents face was becoming toast from all the fire balls that hit it

i made it to the other side safely but a little exausted

but i didnt stop, i continued running towards ba sing se
i reached the train station, bought a ticket,
and there i waited for the arrival of the next train

Sorry this took so long, my internet had trouble and it deleted it the first time I tried to send it.

Rin (novice Firebender)

Scorch and Rin had just wandered into town to get jobs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

???So, you need a job for the day at my restaurant???? The owner of a restaurant in the town interviewed Rin for a one-day job.
???Yes, I???m traveling to Ba Sing Se with a friend of mine and we???re kind of low on money.???
???Well, all right, but you have to wear this uniform.??? He held up a gaudy blue kimono.
Rin sighed and took the job anyway.

Meanwhile, Scorch was getting a job for a man running a delivery service.

???You???ve got some nerve, asking for a job with that bright red hair of yours. Are you in with the Fire Nation???? He eyed Scorch suspiciously.

???No sir, of course not. I???m a refugee on my way to Ba Sing Se. I just need the money for the day.???

???Well, all right. But if you???re not quick enough with my orders, you???ll get no pay at all.???

That was encouraging. ???Yes, sir.??? Scorch responded flatly.

At the restaurant, Rin was having a hard time keeping up with all the orders from the customers. There was one man in his twenties or so that was very nice to her, however.

???I must say you are the kindest host I???ve had in a while.??? The man said.
???Oh, thank you.??? Rin said.
???I never got your name, I???m afraid.???
???I???m???Rika.??? Rin said finally. Using an alias would help if Rampage happened to follow them.
???Rika???what a lovely name. Since you???ve been so kind, I must insist on giving you a tip.??? He handed her a gold coin.
???Whoa, you mean it????
???Yes. Please, keep it. I???ll be back later to see you.??? He walked out the door.

Just after noon, Rin and Scorch met behind the restaurant during their break.

???Running is awful. How can you get anywhere without flying???? Scorch was bewildered and out of breath.

???Welcome to the world of non-benders, Scorch. Get used to it. We won???t be able to use Firebending if we???re going to be refugees. Oh, by the way, I???ve got some money.??? She held out the gold coin.

Scorch picked it up. ???Where???d you get that????
???A man I was serving gave it to me. He says he wants to see me again tonight, too.???
???Hmmm?????? Scorch thought. ???Just be cautious. You don???t know what he might want.???
???Oh, okay, but he seemed really nice.???
???Shoot, break???s over. See you later.???

Later that day, just past sunset, the man came by the restaurant again. ???Hello again, sir. Would you like something to drink???? Rin asked.
???Something with alcohol in it, please. Be creative.??? His mood had changed slightly since Rin last encountered him.
When Rin brought the drink, he asked her a question.
???Is there a boy you like, perhaps???? It was a personal question, but Rin answered anyway.
???Well???I don???t think so.??? She said.
???You know, I would like it very much if you would let me treat you after work.???
Rin realized what he was asking. ???Oh, no, I can???t. I need to move on with my friend so we can--
???No, please. I insist.??? He tried to grab her backside.
Rin punched him in the nose as a reflex.
Gasps and mutters from the restaurant patrons filled the room as he fell to the floor with a nosebleed, unconscious.
???Oh???my???god?????? Rin was shocked at what she just did. ???Uhhh???.I???m so sorry!??? She ran out the door without hesitation and crashed right into Scorch.
???R-Rin? What???s wrong???? He saw the expression on her face and knew something happened.
???That guy???is a pervert?????? Rin shuddered.
???Should we leave????
???After what I just did, I don???t think we should stick around. I???ll tell you what happened in a minute.???

They fled the town as quickly as possible.

Red death(master of fire and earth)
-----------------------------------

i got on the train

once i got off the train, i dressed into my dai li uniform

i walked the city streets remembering the old times
i sighed

as i walked through the streets of ba sing se, i saw a blacksmith shop...noone was inside but an old man sleeping
he looked quite sick
i looked on the counter and saw a king of tai chi sword
it looke pretty sturdy to me

"wow" i said in a low voice
"that thing can probably cut through metal"

i kept walking tough
then i reached the port
there was no sign of rampage's ship

i decided i needed to stay on the outer walls of ba sing se to guard,
in order to catch rampage before he made it into ba sing se

i earthbended my way up the outer wall and i walked arount the outer ring of ba sing se
i walked around the walls 17 times, but still no sign of rampage

i was tired, but i couldnt go to sleep
i had to stay on the lookout

but just as i was about to fall asleep, something in the distance caught my eye
i looked out into the sea and i saw tiny figures of fn war boats docking in the water,
and the fn war ships were releasing sail boats full of fn warriors

i stared in shock
"theyre here" i yelled

a guard asked me who i was talking about
and i replied
"rampage, the fire nation...theyre here"

the guard looked out into the distance and concentrated
"my god" he said
"thats an enormous fleet"

the guard told another guard to alert the earth kingdom troops to get ready for battle, and the guards ran off

i planned what i would when they arrived
I had to get to that war ship docked in the middle of the water, which meant i had to steal a boat in order to get there
i had to steal a small boat

i earthbended my way down the outer walls of ba sing se

i went into the shadows and changed into my red death uniform
i sneaked to the docks and waited for the arrival of rampage

Orha-Earthbending

I walked down to the village and put on my jacket one of the FireNation commanders saw me and ordered me to burn down a house that a family of people whouldent come out of. Since I had no firebending powers I was fooling the commander by using bombs and oils to produce Make-Shift FireBending. I walked up to the cabin and lay a small bomb at the back of the house I came to the front and I spit some oil from my mouth and egnited it with a flint-striker I had fitted my jacket with, the oil caught on fire and started burning the front of the house. Meanwile the bomb at the back of the house ignited and blew open a hole big enough for people to escape. The family had rushed out undetected by the comander so I threw in some more bombs and blew the house apart.

I walked up to the commander and said, "Demolition job done, there where no survivors."

"Good work Orha! Now, if yu hadent come later I would have had more work for you... Heres your percent. How much ever overpaid you are anyways."
---------------------------------------------
Thank you for aiding my story, I make mechanical weapons (Bombs, etc) it is in my char profile, I am going to tell about the story of why I stared working for the FN in a flashback as soon as I can get it together.

I will edit that part... tho...
---------------------------------------
Edited.

Red death(master of fire and earth)
------------------------------------
it was noon
the sail boats were nearing the docks of ba sing se

ba sing se guards were getting into position
while i was hiding in the shadows

i had to get to one of the boats undetected, leave the port undetected, get my friends undetected, then leave

i was ready

--------------20 minutes later-------------

the boats approached the docks

rampage and a few other fire nation soldiers got out dressed as earth kingdom merchants
Rampage said to the soldiers
"unload the merchandise..And dont break them!!"

and then, all of a sudden, the earth kingdom soldiers ambushed rampage and his men

a huge slab of rock rose from the ground
striking rampage in the guts
he kneeled in pain

the fn soldiers took off their merchant uniforms and started fighting back

now was my chance, i crept pass all the soldiers, including rampage

i also managed to leave the port undetected

i took off my mask and put on a merchant uniform left on the boat
i hid the mask, and docked on to rampage's fire nation ship

one of the guards on the ship asked me what i was doing
"he wants me to bring the prisoners to ba sing se"
i replied

"huh?"the soldier said
"why would he want the prisoners in ba sing se?"

"i dont know"
they were his orders" i replied

"ok"the guard said
"wait here"
"lemme get him"

--------------15 minutes later-----------

"here they are" the guard said
"theyre tied up good, so they cant escape"

"good" i said

i then undocked from the war ship, and on our way back to ba sing se, i untied the prisoners
"Hevet, Rex, Willy,Orthin"
"you guys okay?" i asked

they replied with a "sure" and a "yea", and a "okay"
i changed back into my red death uniform

when we reached the docks again, we attacked rampage's forces from behind
they had no choice but to retreat

somehow, rampage pushed his way through and escaped with some soldiers on the sail boat

once they left, willy, rexsten, ornith, hevet and i ran into a corner
"rampage is gunna burst when he finds out that guard released you guys" i said

we all laughed

all of a sudden, the earth kingdom soldiers spotted us, so we had to split

while running, i got split up with willy, ornith, hevet and rexsten

in the clearing, i changed back into my dai li uniform

i decided to go back to my old home, but on my way there, i collapsed of exhaustion and tiredness infront of the same blacksmith shop i had seen earlier that day...

All righty! I think we're in the process of catching Rin and Scorch's story up to everyone elses' because we had to edit our branch of the story after Willy's group and TheGreatAvatar posted stuff. Just clarifying.

Orha-Earthbending

I came back to Ba-Sing-Se, and was confronted by a guard.
"Where have you been?" The guardsman asked.
I was busy in my own thought that I hadent realized that the guard was a good freind of mine from childhood. I looked up at him and was startled, "Whoa! Oh, it's only you, Dahat. You scared me."

"Why? What have you been doing?" He asked.

"Nothing really." I responded.

"Now, I know you. What where you doing?". He looked down at my shirt, "You havent been experimenting with you bombs again have you? Talho, I told you that you could get yourself killed... There is no "Ultimate Weapon", do you hear me?" He grabbed me by the arms and gave me a good shake. "Your right."I said back. feeling completely shamefull for lieing to one of my closest freinds..

"Why don't you start making wepons for the Dai-li? You'd be a shoe-in and no doubt, fast too!" He told me in a softer voice.

"I can't. The weapons made there dont have the soul needed to make great weapons. I could just never be able to make something so..." She stopped.

Off into the distance she could hear someone calling out,
"Rampage, the fire nation... They're here!"

I looked up to a man standing at the top of the outer wall.

Dahat called out to another guard.

Rin (Firebender)

Scorch had just come back to the camp at the next village to tell Rin some good news.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Rin woke up, she was trying not to think of the previous day's events. To herself, she thought.

"Maybe before I said I didn't like anyone...but maybe..." She tried to go back to sleep and hide her red cheeks by throwing the covers over her face. "No, no, no! Not now!...not yet..."

~~~

"Huh? A Tournament?" Rin rubbed her eyes, still sleepy.

"Yeah. If we both enter, we'll have a better chance of winning." Scorch said.

"But...I can't really fight that well."

"Well if you did what you said you did to that perv in the restaurant, you shouldn't have a problem. And I believe in you."

"Well, I guess it's worth a shot. We could use the money. Only one problem, where is it?"

"The flyer says to report to this shady club and tell the manager the password: falco. What kind of a password is that?"

"No idea. We should try to lay low until then."

"Yeah. Rampage could have followed us. I've got an idea, though."

"I hope it doesn't involve firebending."

"It doesn't, don't worry. Firebending relies on your martial arts skills, and though I'm sorry to say it, but you should train in the strength department. If you can punch someone and knock them out in one blow, then imagine what you can do if you train more."

"So...what do you suggest?"

"Lots of push-ups, sit-ups, and general fighting skill training."

"This doesn't sound fun. But I don't care, if it will help with my bending then I guess it's worth a shot."

"All right. Let's get started." Said Scorch.

Orha-Earthbender

I saw the man jump down onto the other side of the wall. I quickly ran for my shop, I triped and felt a sting in my leg, I must have hurtmyself somehow wile attacking that hut. I limped the rest of the way so I could get some painkillers from the shop.

It took a hour. Feeling increadable ammounts of pain shooting through my leg all the way towards the shop I had to stop half way for a few minutes. "Keep going" I told myself.

I was in a rush to get my leg treated and to find my equiptment. When I finnally got to the back of my house I entered and got myself bandaged up. I looked at my father lying in the smithing room. I was about to rush to him when I heard swords crashing,

I rushed to the front of the shop where I found the same man laying there in front of the shop. "Oh my god." I said. I rushed to him and lifted him onto my shoulder. I rushed him inside and up the stairs, I lay him in my bed and cheacked his tempeature. "Hmm, he seems fine." I cheacked him once over and diddent notice much wrong. "I suppose he's just tired..." I thought to myself. Then I quickly realozed I had left my father in the Smithing room. I rushed again down the stairs and I held up my father.
"What are you doing again?"I asked him sternly.
"I want to do it, I want to make the worlds best sword before I die. The Ultimate Weapon."

(Note: Orha has great feets of strength, altho she like to use her brian and skill more than anything.)
