Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tsuzuki stared about, still completely bored with the procedings. She found a bench to sit on at the edge of the courtyard and closed her eyes momentarily. She wanted this to be over and she was getting more and more impatient by the second. Soon, she would leave without a second thought as to why the new Fire Lord wanted to see her in the first place.

She was getting so nervous looking around feeling she was getting father away from her teacher and new friend. "fu-san....Li..." Her yells had turned to whispers as she sat down looking at the sky seeing dots of birds flying by. She sighed and suddenly people yelled and gasped from a distances as the crowd simutaniously turned in the direction of this commotion. Dashing threw the crowd she hopped onto the top of a fountain. She saw somthing blue and bright, blue...it hit kurai like a ton of bricks. A smile grew on her face as air and hope filled her lungs. "FU-SAN!!!Li!!!!" SHe yelled, but she knew with all the gasping and peoples muttering it'd be hard to hear her. "I guess theres only one choice...!". Jumping down from the fountain Kurai yelled for the crowd to move, but the crowd being from the upper class they didn't think to move at a commoner's request. Kurai began spinning her legs in a odd motion; flipping, turning, spinning, and unspeakable/remarkable bending of the body(capoeria) her wide stepping motions was making the crowd spread apart to avoid being hit. Without a second to waste once she saw there was enough room she stopped spreading her legs wide into a strong stance (horse stance). Taking a deep breath in she placed her hands in front of her chest, her hands trembled with force building up in her finger tips. Her hands shot down, curled up and made semi circles before they sprang up above her head, palms flat and fingers curled. Her hands were empty, the crowed stared with confusion, as one cocky man with long thick curly eyebrows walked up to Kurai. She was stuck in her last pose, her eyes shut tightly, the man so close he leaned over to stare at what was in her hands. Kurai's eyes shot open, at the same time the man saw a glimmer of a spark, strong fire shot upwards. Her shot was So powerful, and not to mention bright, the stones below her feet cracked and began to make a small crater around her. It only lasted 20 seconds but it was strong enough to let people see little dots of color float around (kinda like what you see after a flash of a camera).

Soon a screech shouted from the man. "My----MY! BEAUTIFUL EYEBROWS!!!!!" His worry quickly and without hesitation turned to blunt anger. "Y-You!!!! THIS IS YOUR FAULT!" He pointed his hand shaking with anger. "Huh....?" Kurai looked at the man yelling at her. "Hey....mister your eyebrows are missing..." She motioned with her fingers over her eyebrows. "When I'm done with you! YOU'LL....BE..THE ONE MISSING! HA!" He said with over confidence and a devilish smirk. "Well....I was already lost and it wasn't pleasant, I'll be sure not go missing again!" She smiled brightly. Her naiveness was the last straw, "I AM A HIGH RANKING OFFICIAL!!! NOW GET ON YOUR KNEES AND BEG FOR FORGIVENESS!!!" His face was turing a redish tone as the vein on his forehead began pulsing strongly. "Well it was an accident..." She said dusting off her pants ignoring his brooding. Her body language towards him just seemed to anger him even more. Kurai, without her knowing, was angering this 'high offical' more and more with her actions. "You....ignorant pathic excause for a fire bender.." He said with a low tone filled with anger. It was so low Kurai didn't hear it and began running in the direction of friends. The crowd parted like the sea letting her pass to avoid the wrath of the offical that Kurai was unaware of. "Maybe this will teach you a lesson about respect!" As he shouted his last words he pointed toward Kurai.

The gaurds came running to caputure Kurai. She heard rapid foot steps, 'Fu-san?! Li?!', she turned around with a smile expecting her friends but instead to see 3 gaurds coming after her. Kurai's eyes widen she began running faster jumping and pushing threw the crowd of people. She saw a glimpse of Li, 'LI! That means Fu-san is near!!!'. Kurai knew she'd have a chance if she found her teacher. Gaining some space between her and the gaurds she finally reached Li. "Li...!" She shouted hoping to get his attention. Hopefully her new friend would hear her and help her out of this situation. With so many people it was hard to spot her teacher but she was glad she at least found one of her friends.


[GAH!!! gonk sorry its so long T^T ]

Li heard a voice cry out behind him, apparently directed at him, "LI!". He spun around and saw the face of his new friend behind a few bewildered faces. "Fulgar, its Kurai!" he said grabbing his new teachers sholder, attempting to get his attention"

In the excitement he managed to not think about the words Fulgar just tried to teach him, he was always one to act on impulse instead of thinking. He ran through the people and reached his new friend. "You seem to have a habbit of wondering off huh?," he said, catching a few gasps of air, "Are you ok?" He said with a sheepish smile.

Kurai suddenly jumped on Li with and excited cry, "Li! Im so happy to see you!" she exclaimed. Li was so shocked by this body now latched to him that he didnt know what to do, his face turned a bright red. "Im glad to see your ok Kurai, but you shouldnt wonder off like that...Fulgar scolded me for running off to get you at first, but I kinda ignored him..."

"Is Fu-san lost too?" Kurai said with concern in her voice. "Oh no, hes right...." And before Li could finish his sentance she let out a cry, with a suprised look in her eyes, and grabbed his hand and ran off further into the croud.

"Kurai, whats going on?!" He shouted as they doged and weaved there way through the masses of rich people. He knew that Fulgar wasnt gonna be too happy, judging by his perception of him, Fulgar would be furious. If only he had acctually listend to what his new master said...it might of been important.

Li ran with Kurai through the streets, keeping up with her...not that he had a choice with her having a vice grip on his hand. "Sorry! Like I said I burnt a high ranking official's eyebrows off" she said with a excited sound in her voice, she seemed to enjoy this! He continues pushing his was through the croud as he ran, knocking over a few people as the went. "Li, just keep running!" she cried out.

He noticed a dark alley and Kurai pulled him quickly behind a box, pushed her body close to his and covered his mouth. He didnt know why she needed to cover his mouth, he knew better than to talk in a situation like this. Soon he herd the footsteps of there chasers run by, and she let her hand off his mouth. "That was close" she said as she stood up. Li looked up at her, wide eyed, as she held her hand out too him. Then, Li started busting out laughing. "HAHAHAHA! My Agni that was such a rush!, I havnt had this much fun in quite a while!" He grabbed her hand and lifted himself up.

"Come on we better go look for our teacher, he's probably worried...or upset!" Kurai said. "He was right behind me Kurai, I tried to tell you before you decided to take me with you on this little adventure," said Li with a laugh. "We better find him soon, Id hate to see him mad."

Li looked around with Kurai, keeping an eye on her as well, to make sure they didnt get separated. Even though she said that she never saw him upset, he was still slightly worried...not really for him scolding him, but for his reaction to it...he knew his temper would get the best of him.

"Li, do you see him around?" Kurai said to him. He scanned around a bit for a few seconds, but didnt see him. "No I dont...I wish I had a birds eye view of this...would be much easier." he said. Then suddenly he got an idea, "Kurai! Im gonna get down on my knees, and I want you to sit on my shoulders, you can see above the heads this way and might spot him." Li got down on his knees and waited for her.

(its alright biggrin )

Kurai hopped on his shoulders looking down to make sure her friend wasn't having difficulty with her on top of him. "Nya...?" She turned her head around to see her teacher staring at Li and herself oddly. "Fu-san you look like you ran 5 miles!" She noticed her teacher was sweating profoundly. "HAI!" She responded tardy to his request. "Come on Li!" She looked down smiling him and petted his forehead. "We have to run to the fire lord!.." She paused as she grinned. "well..." she look down at him, "You do!" She laughed. "Well I mean if you don't mine..!" She gave Li a sheepish smile with a nervous laugh attached to it.

Li looked up at Kurai as she patted his forhead and looked down at him smiling. "You mean you expect me to carry you on my sholders to the fire lord?" He said staring up at her with a confused look on his face. He looked down with a defeated look, "Oh fine..." Li said with a sheepish smile, "just dont cover my eyes, I dont wanna run into any more Fire Army soldiers".

He then looked at Fulgar, "Im sorry for running off sir...I saw Kurai and I thought Id get to her before she got lost again....looks like we got lost in the process of trying not to get lost." He said as he rubbed the back of his head.
