But Yana shook my head. "I couldn't even if I wanted to. Appa's devoted to my sibling; he wouldn't leave for me. And I wouldn't steal from my own family."

"Oh, well in that case..." Kyoujin laughed, "sucks for you!"
He stretched out his neck, rolling it until it was comfortable enough to look at Yana. "That was weird, anyways, I'm just kidding...but I'd still steal it!" He tried to grin at the last part but it looked more like a cringe since his neck got a sharp pain in it.

Yana looked at Kyoujin, replused. "How can you think of such things all the time? I mean, if you had people who cared about you and who you cared about, why would it be so easy to steal from them?"

"Ummm, lemme see. First of all, no one cares about the little merchant boy, second of all, I'm not one to care for people, and third of all, since I don't care about anyone and no one cares about me it's pretty easy."

"I bet you wouldn't feel that way if someone thought you were worth saving." Yana said, "My father even gave Ozai a chance...the man who would have burned all of this...all of the Earth Kingdom to ashes."

Kyoujin smiled at the mention of Ozai's name like that. He was one of his idols growing up.
"Apparently I'm not worth saving but I am worth throwing off a mountain," he stated, opening an eye just barely to stare at her.

"You would be worth it more if you'd act a little more mature," Yana rolled her eyes, putting away the comb as she tied her hair back, taking up the mortar and pestle and grinding plants vigorously. "I am giving you trust enough to travel with us, and I've already shown you that I'm more than capable of knocking you down and leaving you behind so I obviously am giving you a chance at being a good travelling companion." She ground hard and irritably as she spoke.
"But apparently that trust and patience obviously means nothing to you. You go on in life with only your wants in mind and expect me and Sachi to give up things for you so you can go on to claim the Avatar as a prize rather than for peace, as I am seeking him for."
"If you really want to be worth saving," Yana said, stopping to stare at him seriously, "You've got to put forth effort too."

Kyoujin huffed at her. It didn't really matter what she said to him, but it did strike a nerve or two. Things like that always did. He didn't believe he was as others said he was.
"I guess I can try for you two," he mumbled in a fake faithful tone, "you have done a lot for me...in a sense. As soon as I heal I'll do whatever it takes to prove myself to you."

Sachi sat outside, on the steps leading up to the mountain. She didn't even bother to make sure Kyoujin was okay, even though Yana was there. She just stayed there, keeping quiet, thinking to herself.

"You're despicable." Yana scoffed, walking away from his bed, "Try again once you can bear to tell the truth."
She saw Sachi standing outside, closer to the mountain. Instantly she put her hands behind her back so she wouldn't have to bear the sight of her burns. "We need to talk. Privately."

Sachi nodded, and caught sight of Yana's hands. She looked closer, and caught sight of the edges of burns. She sighed, and took Yana's hands from her back. She looked her in the eyes. "You know, I can heal those if you want me to." She said in all seriousness, going with her to where they were going to talk.

Yana shook her head, "No, no, it's fine. The aloe will go on as it needs." She glanced at the infirmary. Kyoujin would be incapacitated for at least the rest of the night. "We'll go to the top of the mountain again. I won't risk us being overheard."
They climbed up, the wreck of slate still there from the previous fight. They sat up there, watching the sunset sink into the earth, staining the clouds a blood red. Like fire across the sky. Like blood staining the water. It made Yana shiver.
"We need to leave Kyoujin behind."

Sachi nodded, and clutched her bag, and her water pouch. She looked around, calculating an easy way out, without being seen. "Okay, when do we go" She said, waiting for them to go.
