Samei was to take Katara and the rest of the avatar's group,so that Aang and Katara may learn the spike wall technique.

////////////////////

Katara:Why can't you just teach us yourself,Samei?

Samei:I am not autherized by the Order of the Northern Elite

Toph:Who nooooow?

A turn made by Appa made Toph carry on her word..

Samei: In the beginning of the Water Tribes,a few special water benders were chosen,they were split up.The Order of the Northern Elite and the Order of the Southern Elite were created.All the water bending masters are a part of these orders.Sometimes they are just hard to find.

Katara: O,ok.

Aang: So,you were tought by a member of The Order of the Elite?

Samei: Yes,you and Katara as well.

Katara: Right,the master that almost didn't teach me..

Everyone was silent until Appa landed.I hope the message I sent reached the order.. Samei thought.When Appa came out of the clouds,Samei saw that it had.Many people stood at the front of the city,ready with celebration items.

Siam- airbender

Mizuhiro- firebender/swordsman

Master Ikasoruk- Sword Master

~~In the council of the White Lotus~~

/////////////////////

Siam walked into a circular room that was completely dark except for three candles that went around a circle that was in the middle of the room.

Siam stepped in the middle circle and remained quiet. When door to the room silently shut someone began to speak.

"Welcome Siam...we knew you were coming. But we didn't expect you this soon."

From the opposite side of the first voice a female voice spoke, "Yes, but before we begin Makani word has reached our ears of your parents death. We are remorseful of their deaths and extend our condolences to you."

Siam tried to maintain her posture but stuttered as she spoke, "Th... thank y, you. But that is not why I have come. I have urgent news to tell the council."

The person sitting in front of her spoke next.

"If you need to say something then by all means share it with us."

Siam was about to speak but the person named Makani spoke up first, "Ah Demitrius you forgot. We are not yet a full council. Our representative from the fire nation has yet to arrive."

"But wouldn't it be prudent for her to tell us the cause of her parent's deaths seeing as how they were important figures?"

`Thud, thud, thud`

The female voice spoke up again, "That must be Ignatius now."

"I think that you are right Lynne. Demitrius, if you would do the honors."

Demitrius nodded his head in agreement and stood up. He made a fist and swung it across his body causing a line to form in a section of the wall. Then Demitrius put his hands together and separated them vertically causing the section of wall to do the same. Light shone in through the hole revealing its dome like structure. When the figure had stepped through Demitrius did the reversers and closed the opening.

"It was nice of you to finally join us Ignatius," said Lynne, "We didn't know if you were going to make it."

"Yes well, I had to help an old lady cross the street before I got here," said Ignatius.

"Well please light your stand and take your seat so we can officially begin this council," replied Makani.

When Ignatius sat down a fourth candle was brought forward with which he lit.

Now Siam, I want you to tell the council of your plight and your thoughts on the matter.

For the next two hours Siam spoke of the events that took place during and after her parents deaths. With some trouble she conveyed how peculiar and frightful the force that killed her parents was. Next she read the warning note that Mizuhiro had found and given her. Siam spoke about their flight from the fire nation troops and of the assistance she received from Mizuhiro. She then pleaded with them to double the guard and protect the temple. The entire council was eager to hear more but Ignatius could no longer contain his thoughts.

"If it is true that the fire nation is what is chasing you then I have failed at my post," said Ignatius, "If it would please the council I would like to take a recess from this discussion so that I might research Siam's findings."

The council members acknowledged his request with a nod. Demitrius opened up the door like before for Ignatius to leave but before he did Ignatius turned around.

"Siam, before I leave I have one question to for you: what was the commanders name; the one who has been chasing you and your companions?"

Siam shook her head, "I don't know, Mizuhiro never told me."

Ignatius stroked his beard, "Well I am sorry for the trouble you have been receiving. I will try to make amends. Y, your parents were good people."

And with that Ignatius walked out of the room and the wall closed behind him with a `Thud.`

"Thank you," whispered Siam.

Feeling the tension in the room Lynne spoke up, "Well I am off as well to the northern and southern water tribes to see if there is anything to learn as well. Demitrius, it would be wise for you to do so as well."

"Aye," he replied, "But what of our member."

Siam replied "I wish to stay and see if the fire nation does attack and to lend my support as will my companions."

The three remaining council members looked pleased with her answer. As the two other members left the room Makani spoke with Siam.

"Now my dear, even though there is smoke on the wind let us not be hasty. You must be tired from your journey. I will tell the monks to lead you to your companions' quarters so you can sleep and refresh yourself. But remember the wind flows in every direction."

To this Siam replied, "May this heart find the right path."

Siam then walked through the doorway and up the stairs. She found the monks waiting for her at the

foot of the statue. As she reached her staff the two monks twirled their hands in the air then brought their left hand down upon the opposing on either side of the staff. The monks air bending closed the foot of the statue and launched Siam's staff into her hands. As she strapped it to her back one of the monks on approached her and spoke.

"We will take you to your companions now."

Siam just nodded and followed them out of the temple.

this post is one of those Blah, blah, spiritual mumbo jumbo, blah, blah, something about space

Genesis: Airebending prodigy, master of swords, and leader of the Shǔ Guāng.

Katsumi: Waterbending prodigy.

Karin: Firebending prodigy.

Giro: Earthbending prodigy.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Giro walked outside and looked around to see if the coast was clear. He made his way out and the rest of them followed.

Genesis: Okay. From here on out, we're going to Ba Sing Se. It's not too far from here, but we won't be making any stops, so is everyone ready?

Karin: What will we do after we hit Ba Sing Se?

Giro: From there, Gen and Kat will get themselves caught by the Di-Lee and then get to their leader from the inside. You and I will just kick back and relax for the time being.

Karin nodded and Genesis pulled out his sword. He swung it and the sand dispersed. A sand glider arose and he jumped onto it.

Katsumi: When did you get that?!?!?

Giro: I found it when I went around the perimeter searching for any nearby enemies. There were other ones, but they were pretty battered and broken.

Genesis: Get on.

Everyone hopped on and as soon as they got on, Giro jumped next to Genesis and started to Sandbend to get the thing moving. Genesis spinned and twisted his arms and started to create a small vortex to help speed it up.

Karin: How long will it take to get there?

Genesis: At the speed we're going, probably within the hour.

They rode in the scorching hot desert for about an hour and saw the walls of Ba Sing Se in view.

Genesis: We're almost there.

Karin closed her eyes and then opened them.

Karin: We've got company!

Genesis looked around, but saw nothing.

Genesis: Where?

Karin: Under us!

Genesis looked down at the sand and the glider shook. Katsumi yelped and ran away from the edge. A part of a large slithering creature came bulging out of the sand and went back down. Genesis and Giro stopped the glider.

Katsumi: What was that?!?!?

Everything was silent and then the glider started to shake again.

Karin: It's faint, but it's getting closer....

The giant creature popped out of the ground and broke the glider into peices. Katsumi, Giro, and Karin jumped down and fell into the sand. Katsumi looked around and said:

Katsumi: Where's Genesis?

Giro: I think he got eaten by that thing.

Karin: Amazing! It's a sand worm, but much bigger than anything I have ever seen!

Katsumi: Now's not the time to be amazed!

The worm looked down and dove towards Karin and Katsumi. Giro jumped in and grabbed their collars. He pulled them out just in time, and the sand worm dug back into the ground.

Giro: We need to hurt it from the outside if we plan to get him out.

Karin: That won't be easy, because it's back is covered with a thick outer shell...

Giro: Is there a soft spot?

Karin: Yes, actually....it's on its belly, but you'll have to hit it when it stands up.

Giro felt the ground vibrating and grabbed their collars again. He moved again and the worm popped out from underneath the sand. It made a loud screeching noise and looked down at them. Giro charged it and kicked his heel into the sand. A small wave of sand rolled towards the worm and hit it in the belly. The worm screamed and fell backwards onto its back. Giro pick up some sand and condensed them into blade like stones. He jumped onto the belly and started to throw them at it. Some went through, but others bounced off. Before the worm turned over and dug into the ground, Giro jumped off and ran back to the girls.

Giro: No dice! Anything else?!?!? I'm not to good when it comes to bending sand.

Katsumi: I think we should....

Karin: I got it!

The sand worm popped out of the ground and stood tall. They all sat there shocked as they watched the huge sand worm standing just a few yards away. The worm started to dive and Katsumi and Karin closed their eyes. Giro covered them and protected them. Before the worm was about to swallow them whole, the belly started to expand. The worm stopped and moved backwards a bit. Giro looked up and saw the worm on its back.

Giro: Now's our chance!

They all stood up and jumped onto the belly. Giro threw condensed sand, Karin started to burn a hole through the stomach, and Katsumi started to shoots shards of ice. The wormed screamed and then turned over. Before it turned completely, they jumped off.

Giro: Still nothing?!?!?

Karin looked up and said:

Karin: Wait!

The belly started to expand again and then a blade popped out of the stomach. It moved in a circular motion and then the skin was kicked outwards. A hole was made and Genesis jumped out. He turned around and started to run up the belly of the beast. He ran along the side of its head until he was on top of it. He raised his sword in the air and then plunged it deep into its head. The worm screeched again and then fell towards Giro, Katsumi, and Karin. They jumped out of the way and the worm made a huge thumping noise as it hit the ground. Genesis jumped off and dusted off his shoulders.

Genesis: Katsumi. Mind hitting me with some water? I got some bug juice all over me....

She nodded and the water in her pouch started to surround Genesis. As soon as he was spotless, she redirected the water back into her pouch and closed the lid. Genesis was still wet, so he crossed his arms and then spread them out in one quick motion. He created a gust of air around him and he was completely dry.

Giro: That was one long detour....Hey where's our glider?!?!?

He looked around and saw the glider in peices.

Giro: It took me forever to rebuild it with those parts!!!

Katsumi: So.....I guess that the men will have to carry us!

Karin: That's right! You wouldn't want us to walk in the scorching hot desert right?!?!?

Genesis: No we don't...

Karin and Katsumi: Really?!?!?

Genesis: That's right....Giro...

Giro nodded and he put both of them over his shoulders.

Giro: Let's go ladies!

Katsumi and Karin started to pound on his back.

Karin: Let us go you brute!

Katsumi: What she said!

Genesis started to walk and Giro followed suit.

Giro: How long do I have to carry them for?

Genesis: They should be nothing compared to the weight you had to carry that one time in Omashu...

Giro: Oh yeah! Don't remind me...

Giro sighed and Genesis said:

Genesis: Give or take about ten to twenty minutes depending on if we'll run into anything else like that worm...

They are on their way to Ba Sing Se.

----------------------------

That last line rhymed.

Would you believe I was going to do something eerily similar to Dak's post? Seriously, I was. And I'm going to do it anyway, despite the fact that I will look like a copy-cat. I also stole a line from Dak, seeing as it would make sense. Also, the next few posts will be important to my story, but will likely be filler for Mike and DJ... sorry.

Bai Mao (firebender, Pudao)
Fighting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I stood over Gerik's body for a few seconds to catch my breath, then rushed back into the dust cloud. The region around me cleared suddenly, and a woman was standing in the midst, her arms outstretched. She sighted me, drew a short sword from her belt, and ran at me with superhuman speed that screamed Airbender. I barely had time to jump back, and the sword grazed my arm. She sped toward me again. Polearms were no good against short weapons with fast wielders, so I put my pudao in its sheath to focus dodging back and forth. She was too fast. I just kept moving, searching for an opening among the blur of clothes. I cried out as my leg was slashed, but still kept moving. I heard Burai calling out to me.

"Bai Mao! Duck!"

The blade passed over my head.

"Stand and turn left! "

I felt her leg hit mine at high speed, then heard a hard thud.

"There, attack!"

She was on the floor, and I had no time to draw my weapon, so I used the next best thing... My fist. However, as I stood for a moment in indecision, she had gone on the attack again, and my fist slammed into the hard earth.

"No, not like that!"

The woman was coming for me again, sword ready to stab. I drew the pudao and started running, then threw it at her feet. She dodged to the side, and I took the oppurtunity and shoved my foot forward. It connected with her stomach, and I sighted something: a dagger at her front. As she fell, I reached for it. She leapt up quickly, and I realized thet her pants were loose... very loose. My hand slipped right down her shorts. We stood there for a while in complete shock. She was enraged. She barely spat out "You Pervert!" before my foot silenced her. I snatched the dagger and drove it through her heart. As the dust cleared, I made sure to remember not to use my right hand.

*****A FEW MINUTES LATER*****

Stock had been taken of the battle. Dak's sword was pretty much wrecked, but nobody was seriously hurt... or so I though. Ini was brought toward us, pale in the face and shaking violently, and mumbling to herself.

Ini: I killed them... Me.. their blood... my blade...

As experienced campaigners, Gweh and I realized it immediately.

B'ao: Battle shock.

Gweh said nothing. He came forward, stood her up, and shook her, yelling panickedly in such a thick accent that I couldn't understand what he was saying. I acted quickly, putting him in a chokehold until he let go. He stormed off, muttering to himself. I turned to Dak.

B'ao: So... About that sword...
