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

"haha"
"talho...i wont turn you in"
"dont worry"i said

"why?" talho asked

"well..for 1..u cared for me when i collapsed in front of your store"
"and 2nd-"
i emitted a powerful blast of a fireball straight at her,
but it faded away before it got to her
"...that's why"
i said

Talho-Earthbender

Startled by the "Random-style" attack from Red Death, I steped backwards, Red laughed and put out his hand, Palm up.

A flame lit up and a fireball was sent up 3 feet above him like a firework. "Is that all? I've done more spectacular stuff with bombs and oil." I turned and went down the stairs. I sat at the bottom.

"What have I gotten myself into?" I asked myself, Biting my lower lip hard enough to bleed. I remembered my father I got up and went over to his room. He was sitting up on his bed staring into the smithing fires. "Thats a bad habbit." He said.
"What bringing strange men into our house?" I asked.
"No, hurting yourself in confusion." I looked down and wiped my lip off.

talho just ran down the stairs

i stood there and though for a while
then i continued my bending practice

i knew talho wouldnt turn me in
because she had a secret too
that she kept from everyone else

i flipped rocks all over the backyard

then someone looked out his window and said
"KEEP IT DOW OUT THERE!!"
"DONT MAKE ME COME OUT THERE!!"
"YOULL REGRET IT!!"

i looked up and laughed
"haha..your a funny man" i said
then in a split second a rose a rock from the earth and, the rock flew straight at his window

...it most likely killed him=)

"noone disturbs a dai li while hes training" i muttered

Rinkoto Fang-Airbend

I had followed the scent of the fire nation soldier to, at the moment, appeared to be an abandoned cave. "Hmmm, looks like I missed the party", I noted, seeing signs of a battle. Sniffing around again, I managed to pick up their scent again. "Ba-Sing-Se huh, quite a trip. Better pick up the pace". Pulling a rope hanging from my back, a pair of fabric wings shot out. I used my air-bending to launch myself into the air and then, using it to keep me alfloat, I made off in the direction of the town.

(About a day later)
"Man, this place is huge", I said, my jaw hanging. I had heard stories about Ba-Sing-Se, but I'd never seen the city with my own eyes. "Yeesh, maybe a map would be helpful", I thought. But then again", I thought, picking up the scent, "this is so much easier". Unloading the wings again, I took off in the general direction of the scent. About halfway to the scent, it suddenly disappeared. At the time, I was so into tracking it that when it disappeared, I almost forgot I was flying. "Woah, woah, woah", was the only thing I was thinking as I attempted to regain control. Managing to regain control, I glided down to the ground and tried to pick up the scent again, but to no avail. "Hmmm, great. Must have passed over it. Better find it again quick. But first, some shopping needs to be done". Pulling out a small list from my pocket, I read it over in my head. "Food suppiles, medical suppiles, and a sword. Yeah, better start looking for a sword first, it would be the harder thing to find, so it should be dealt with first". Putting the list away, I made my way through the city.

(Few hours later)
I had gotten everything BUT the sword. Like no matter who I asked, no one seemed to know a blacksmith. "Yeah, maybe an aerial view would be better", I thought to myself and took to the sky. Looking around, I had even less luck then before. A sound to the right caught my attention. Changing my direction to the source of the sound, I glided down towards the ground. As I got closer, I could see what looked like somebody earth-bending. I landed quickly and was about to call out "Hey there, what's going on" when he shot out a fireball from his hand. "Damn, a fire-bender," I thought quickly preparing myself for a fight. As I got closer, however, I heard him talking to someone. Peeking out, I saw a girl in a window, who looked extremely pissed off. "Eh, to heck with it". I stepped out and called to them. "Hey, sorry for interrupting, but would either of you know a good blacksmith around here". The girl shot a look of pure hatred towards me, enough to make me cringe. Then the look disappeared and she smiled.

"I'm a blacksmith, the name's Talho. What do you need". The other just looked at me, shocked how I seemed to appear out of nowhere.

"A sword, one that would be good for an airbender to use." Talho thought it over a minute, then said, "Yeah, I can make that for you. However, it will be a while before it's done. It will take about a day or so. Come back then and I'll have it for you."

"Okay, thanks. Here, could you lend me something of yours. I'll be able to locate this place faster then when I return." She nodded and tore off a piece of her clothing and handed it to me. "Thanks, I'll be back for that sword". I took to the sky again and, as luck would have it, I picked up the scent again. "Perfect, back to business then". Turning towards the scent, I doubled my speed, not wanting to lose the scent again.

Just as I made it too a town outside of Ba-Sing-Se, a sudden large gust of wind threw me off balance and I went sailing into the ground. Thankfully, I cushioned the fall with a burst of air. Still hurt like hell though. As I got up, a crowd began to gather, expecting to see the crushed body of the poor soul who had crashed. Instead, they saw me getting up. One person dared to ask, "How are you still alive"?

"Oh, just a little air-cushion, you know, with airbending", I snickered. I was not prepared for the screams that followed that statement. They scattered, screaming that the fire nation would soon be on their heads. "Oh right, airbenders aren't too common nowadays. Ain't I smart"? Suddenly, the scent I was tracking seemed to be getting closer. "Well, at least something good is gonna come outta this mix-up". For the moment, I couldn't have been any more wrong.

talho went back up the stairs and asked me what my name was threw the windows

i replied
"red death"

then talho went along commenting on my name...
then a customer came out of nowhere
i heard talho talking to the customer
as the customer left,
i saw him take out a glider and glide into the sky

i looked up
"what?"
"an airbender?"
"there are still airbenders around?" i said

i quickly jumped into my room and changed into my red death uniform
i was so concentrated on 1 thing,
that i accidently left my dai li uniform on the bed

i jumped out of the window, and got on to the roof

the airbender was still in sight
"i need to meet this air bender" i said

i jumped across rooves slowly catching up with the airbender

Talho-EarthBender-Blacksmith.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I went back up to the window and called out to the Dai-Li,
"Hey, whats your name?" I asked.
"Red Death." He responded.
"Red death... Kinda funky for a name... well, I mean, you DO, Earth AND FireBend... So... I guess I will just have to accept that name." I responed back.

Then out of the bushes came someone, they called out, "Hey!sorry for interrupting, but would either of you know a good blacksmith around here?".
"OH MY GOD WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP COMMING AT BAD TIMES..."I thought to myself and bit my lip hard. I gave out a krindge in pain. He looked as if I was kringing at him so I smiled.

"I'm a blacksmith. My name is Talho. What would you like?"I said

He asked for some sort of sword good for AirBending, I knew what he would need.. The Tai-Chi sword I had started earlier is meant for the fast. I told him that it would take a couple of days to make and to come back later. He asked for an item to be able to find this place again.. I thought it was a weird request. But I handed him a peice of cloth that was tearing from my skirt.

"Thanks, I'll be back for that Sword." he said. Then he took off into the sky.

"Strange fellow" I said to Red, "OOh well beggars can't be choosers, and with the first customer in over 5 years... I wouldent care if he was FireNation." I thought to myself.

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

i kept running, boosting my jumping heiight and speed by emitting blasts of fire balls from me feet and hands constantly

in a few minutes, i was right under the air bender

Talho-EarthBender-Blacksmith.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I went down the stairs and saw red jump into my window and change into a different suit.. "Hey, where you going?" I asked him but he diddent seem to hear me... he started jumping off of roofs in chase of the customer..

"Those people are wierd..."I said to myself

Nah, thats good, but just to point out a few quick things.
1)I'm looking for you guys for information. I join up because I feel like it.
2)I'm more of a carefree guy, remember. Don't make me to serious, unless I'm angered. ^^
3)I'm called Fang, I'm sticking to Japanese Style of names.(Last then First) So Rinkoto is my last name(sorry for the confusion).
4)Red Death is following me, so we need to meet him somehow. Thats all.

the airbender flew over the outer walls of ba sing se

i quickly remembered 2 things
1. I left my dai li uniform on my bed
"if talho discovers it, shell know i have an alias" i whispered

2.i remembered that the airbender needed to comeback to get the sword

i quickly ran back to the shop and sneaked in throught the window
i quickly changed and jumpd out the window again and resumed my earthbending training,
hoping talho didnt see anything
