Fulgar was relieved that she had accepted with such... gusto. "Wonderful! We leave as soon as we can, Ive still got some loose ends to tye up and I'm sure you do to." Fulgar was happy right now, he would be able to get all this done in one easy whack, he got to keep his friend, teach her firebending and learn from the airbenders. Soon Kurai was running off toward some wonderful smell that filled the air. "Huh." Fulgar said well he'd better go after her, he didnt really want to run it so he walked.
As he walked toward the smell he saw a store, it was lit completely by candles. He looked in through the doorway to see the glint of a steel blade. It was a weapon shop. Fulgar stared into the shop with a glaxed look to disbelief on his face his mouth was open at the site of this wonderful place. He looked over the hard steel weapons. He was definetely interested in the hammers, not many weapons could be used for firebending, hammers, chained weapons, and swords were pretty much it. He would need a weapon, as would Kurai, on their trip. He looked over the axes, he could think of a million ways to use these tools. He looked through the weapon shop and heard a voice "what's your pleasure, sir?" (200g to whoever names that reference) Fulgar looked over to where the voice was coming from, a middle-aged man stood behind the counter, his hair was starting to gray but still held some of its vibrance, and his beard was impressive in comparison with the whiskers that Fulgar had on his face Fulgar rubbed his chin felt the rough hairs on his palm. "Hi. I'm looking for a weapon." Fulgar told the man, the man laughed and said "no! Youre looking for a weapon, here in a weapons shop?" Fulgar looked rather embarrassed at the man's sarcasm. "Well I was looking for a weapon that I could firebend with. I have always been a fan of the scythe, but I cant bend with that, I was just looking over here at the axes, and hammers. What could you suggest?" Fulgar asked hopeful there would be some kind of scythe that he could bend with, that would be convenient, and if this were a story it would be rather expectable (lol). "Are you strong?" the shopkeep asked him, rather odd question if you were to ask Fulgar, "yeah, I suppose so, I'm no weakling but I'm not the strongest guy out there. I'd say I'm above average in the strength area." Fulgar said, realizing that he was rather flattering himself with that statement, but paid no attention. "Well, sir, we have this:" the shopkeep turned and brought out a large scythe, that wasnt exactly a scythe the weapon didnt curve to a point. "Wow." Fulgar said in disbelief at the convenience of this weapon. The blade didnt curve to a point like a normal scythe would, the end instead was the edge of an axe, the bottom of the blade was sharpened like a scythe but the end was an axe blade. "That should suit your fancy, sir." He handed Fulgar the gorgeous weapon, the weight wasnt to extreme in Fulgar's hands the handle felt wonderful his finger twisted around the shaft it was about 5" 5' in height the blade extended out 2 feet and on the back side a spike sat laterally (is that a word?) to the rest of the blade. "You can firebend with that, but it is also much like a scythe." Fulgar had a huge grin on his face, this suited him perfectly, it was too good to be true, it was like someone was writing this and just wanted him to have a really cool weapon or something. "Ill take it, how much is it?" "Usually it'd be 30 gold pieces, but you seem to like it, and it suits you well, you can have it for 20 gold pieces." Fulgar grinned even wider, he had about 50 gold pieces, 30 silver, and 90 copper. "Ill take it!" Fulgar said nearly shouting at the man, he dove into his coat pocket and got out 20 gold pieces. He paid the man and took the weapon off. "Thanks so much for this!" Fulgar said still grinning wildly.
Fulgar walked out of the store with the scythe on his shoulder. He walked off and found Kurai with two bowls of steaming goodness. "Hey, Kurai! Look what I got!" Fulgar said and unshouldered the weapon and the let blade drop to the ground the blade stuck into the earth firmly without any force from Fulgar.

Feinel entered timidly, as she normally did in new situations. The whole ordeal of coming to Omashu was so nerve-wracking. She was still trembling in the fingers. Now, she started to regret and ponder what to do next. How was she supposed to find Kai? This is a large city! Feinel sighed. When and if she finds him, how is Kai going to react? Anger? Disappointment? Surprise? "Drago, I'm too self-conscious." The dog glanced at her. Another sigh. Feinel decides to wait. She found a corner and tucked her knees to her and wrapped her arms around them. Drago sat next to her. They blended in for a typical homeless situation; the perfect position, Feinel thought, to wait and watch. [exit:Fire Nation--enter: Earth Kingdom~Omashu]

Her mouth opened in a 'o' fashion surprised to Fulgar's new weapon. "Fu-san! thats such a great weapon!" Her eyes narrowed on it before she sighed with grief. Looking to the side with a blush of embrassment, " Even the weapon is taller than me..." She heard some type of argument from behide her. Her curiosty got the better of her and looked back to see a very large man grabbing the old man's box. "Fu-san hold this!" She shoved the two bowls into Fulgar's arms. Kurai rushed at the man, lowering herself to the ground before pushing off catching about 8ft. of air. She jammed her foot into the back of the mans head. Losing his balance he turned around raising an eye brow at this short girl. "Who do you think you are little girl!?" His accent was thick before he pointed and a hardy laugh. By this time kurai had it she ran up the 7ft. man shoving her foot into his lower jaw. The man smirked pulling his head down, kurai was shocked that he was able to take the hit in such a short time. The man seized this moment to grab her leg and rocketed her the way she came. The man laughed once again patting his large stomach he turned around to pick up the box he dropped. The old man placed his foot on box. Kurai proping herself up on her elbows from the fall she squinted her eyes waving her hand infront of her to get rid of the dust. She saw the old man take out the 7ft. tall man like he was nothing. Kurai ran up to the old man, "wow!". Was the only word she could say to explain what she saw at the moment. The man looked at her, "That was very brave for a young girl like you to do.." He picked up the large thick stone block box. The old man looked at the box and then her before a smile crossed his face. "You can have whatever is in this box...but only open it when you feel you are ready.." He handed her a the box. "Thank yo---" once the old man placed the box in her arms she was dragged to the ground. She summoned all her strength pulling the box up to her chest. "Thank you sir..!" she said with a high pitched voice. She began walking back to Fu-san with a smile on her face.

(it isnt iroh, it isnt a reference to ATLA. Look further, ill give you a hint, it is a horror movie masterpiece made in 1987. Ill tell you when we switch to the next page.)
"You really should stop doing that." Fulgar smiling and laughing at her continually running off without a word of anything. "And you shouldnt kick fat guys, it isnt polite!" Fulgar said laughing at her jump kicking this dude in the stomach. "I wonder what's in the box." Fulgar said grabbing hold of the scythe... axe... bill... weapon, grabbing hold of the weapon Fulgar pulled it out of the ground despite it's fairly light weight and easy handle the thing had embedded itself into solid stone nearly 4 inches, he hadnt even forced it in. "Come on, Kurai, lets go eat then Ill show you that weapon shop. I saw some pretty sweet things in there that would look real good hanging from your belt!"
Fulgar sat down at a stoop and took a bite of the sweet smelling gunk. He took a bite from the steaming bowl and all the hair on his body stood up. It was the most disgusting thing he'd ever experienced then all of a sudden he could taste the nastyness slowly dissappearing replaced by the most wonderful flavors he had ever known. The stuff itself was absolutely nauseating, but the aftertaste was awesome! Fulgar looked at the steaming bowl in surprise. "Holy crap! Kurai! You gotta try this stuff."
Fulgar finished his bowl of gunk and stood up putting his hands behind his back he pushed and his back popped, felt good, his body now felt slack. He grabbed the... weapon he just bought and looked around the streets. No one was there anymore. He began swinging the... he was gonna start saying it was a "scythe" he began to practice with the scythe, the weight was unusual in his hands but his movement was fluent, a little bit shaky but fluent non the less. He brought the scythe above his head and brought it down upon the stone ground fire blew out from the hole that he just created with the weapon. Making sure he was away from Kurai he tried something else, he did the same manuever only more powerful with the firebending, he got into a sturdy stance squated to the ground he swung with a horizontal left, right, then spun quickly around creating a wonderful circle of fire around him he slowly rose from his squat as he spun he got out of the spin and brought the scythe down to hit the ground with a powerful thud and scream of flames roared out from the spot he crashed the weapon down on.
Fulgar was breathing heavily, he wasnt used to that kind of movement with a weapon. He'd used weapons in firebending before but this was different. He would have to practice. He decided, as soon as the spar with him and Jonah was complete he was getting out of Omashu with his friend and student along side him.

She ate the food, it had different types of textured foods and taste but it still tasted delicous. "Fu-san it's delicious!" She smiled at him loving the taste in her mouth. Her eye went to the box to her side, "I wonder whats inside.." She muttered under her breath. She watched Fulgar test out his weapon, it was very impressive. "Wow!!" she gasped looking at the flames his scythe shot out, Fulgar was very talented with his firebending. She walked up to Fulgar, "Fu-san! that was amazing!--" She stopped noticing his breathing. "Fu-san are you alright..?" She asked concerned. She looked around noticing the sun was almost gone. "Come on Fu-san we should head back! Its getting late! And we don't want to run into some robbers" She laughed trying to pick up her box. She looked at Fulgar, "If your up for it fu-san do you think you can help me carry the box to the dojo?" She turned to him flashing a smile rubbing the back of her head with her hand.

Daniel had been takeing a nap and had just woke up. he got up and started walking around the city. he had been wresting up from his last tournament battle, which to him wasn't really a big deal however aparently some people didn't seem to think so. Never the less he didn't let it bother him and merly ignored the people who would come by ever so often just to bug him. wanting to get away from some of the people buging him he blew a hole just big enough for him to fit through, through the side of the wall of omashu. after steping through he ofcourse covered it back up.
Finding himself very bored and in need of entertainment he set off to see if he could find someone who might be willing to spare with him.

((I gotta do something. I'm just stuck at the moment.)) Jonah, feeling a little still at the moment, decided that this fight was beginning to get out of hand at the magnitude they were bending. He decided to call it off. Jonah enjoyed a good spar, but he was just not willing to go as far as to limit his opponent to bending heavy water. "You're a great waterbender Rave, but I think this might get out of hand. I think this spar has come to an end. If you want to continue sparring against an earthbender, I'm sure someone around here will volunteer." Jonah hoisted himself up out of the sand pit he had created, deciding that he had seen enough of Omashu. He had already restocked his pack, and now he needed to get moving. Jonah went over to his things, drying off after splashing around with Rave, then packed up what he needed. He remembered that he was going to spar with Fulgar, but Jonah needed to be moving on. In case he came back to the Earth Dojo, Jonah left him a note scrawled in black ink on a roll of parchment. After packing up, he left for the entrance of the dojo where he laid the note on the counter. After that, he turned out of the Earth Dojo and exited the great city of Omashu. His destination was the far northern domain of the Waterbenders. Jonah's Note Dear Fulgar, I'm sorry that we didn't get our spar, but I need to be moving on as I have been in one place for quite a long time.. I need to broaden my earthbending skills by observing the water and air benders. A spar with them in their own territory would make for an interesting adventure. If you want to find me, I'll be at the Northern Water Tribe. - Jonah, earthbending instructor [Exit: Omashu. Enter: Northern Water Tribe]

[Aww, damnit, sorry it took too long for me to post... crying ]
"I guess you are right," Rave said glad that he didn't have to counter Jonah's last move. But sooner than he noticed, Jonah had left. The sun was starting to set, but Rave did not want to stay in the dojo. He was thankful enough that he had two free meals that day, and he believed staying the night would be pushing it. Anyway, Rave felt better when he's out in the open.
A few mintues later, Rave was ready to leave. He had his bag over his shoulder and he refilled his two gourds he used fighting Jonah. Outside of the temple, he bowed in respect for their kindness to him. As of now, Rave had to find a place to rest so he could be fresh and ready to find a job the next day.

Jin finally awoke from his slumber. He yawned a little and scratched his eyes. Jin looked around and saw no one around. He noticed that the fight between Rave and Jonah was over. His stomach growled and he thought it was time for a little snack. He headed over to the kitchen to find any food. Jin was taught to not go through people's belongings without asking but no one was around. Jin looked around on the kitchen counter for any fruits. All he found was a note written by Jonah and addressed to Fulgar. Should he read it? Jin thought twice of doing so and just started to read the note.
After reading the note, he was shocked a little. Jin couldn't figure out why Jonah had left his friends. This note had turned Jin's day into a shocking one. He grabs his backpack and bottle of water. Jin then heads out towards the gates of Omashu and leaves towards his Brother Tribe. The Northern Water Tribe.
Jin pushed and pulled his boat as he got on and set off to follow Jonah. He wanted to figure out why he left us. Swaying his hands forwards and backwards made the boat rock sideways a little. He stopped as soon as the boat was in a reasonable speed.

(I hope you guys are ready for Friday December eighth. It is Dimebag’s death-day anniversary. Gotta listen to Pantera all day and wear some kind of Pantera memorabilia. Would you people stop taking things directly from the show? It’s getting really annoying. Oi, jeff this is the friend I was telling you about for the story line thing youre making.) “Fu-san are you alright?”Fulgar heard her ask him there was a splitting pain in his side. He’d used too much energy in one sitting. “I’ll be fine” Fulgar said holding onto his ribs, “just used too much energy there.” He wasn’t used to handling a weapon like that so it was sort of like when you run a mile when you haven’t done so in a month. The pain slowly subsided when they started to walk back to the dojo. He listened to Kurai’s worry about robbers, “ha! Like they could do much to the two of us” Fulgar may have sounded over confident, but it was true, after what Kurai just displayed he was sure she could take out some no-name robber easy, he was a pretty good firebender himself. Kurai asked him to carry the box back to the dojo. His scythe was at his side; he shouldered it and grabbed the box from her hands “of course I will take it to the dojo for you.” The box was definitely heavier than he thought, the thing felt like it was solid stone probably 75 pounds, he tucked the box under his arms and kept walking. The pair walked down the street Fulgar looked up and down the road for the weapon shop with that sarcastic shop keep. He found it. “I guess it’s that time, then.” Fulgar said disappointed, the shop was closed. “Sorry, Kurai, will you come with me back here tomorrow?” Fulgar asked her, eager to see what kind of weapon the shop keep could find to fit her with. They’d only been walking a few minutes when Fulgar could see the dojo, candles lit, light pouring from the windows. “We’re here.” Fulgar said he stepped into the doorway of the dojo to find that Jonah and the waterbender were still sparring. Fulgar was tired and ready to get some sleep. He walked in Rave, Jonah, even the little kid Jin wasn’t there. He found a note that was messily opened on the table. Obviously the little spy was the one who opened it, he really hated that kid. He grabbed the note and yelled to Kurai, to get over there, while he waited he dropped the box onto the table. Fulgar began to read aloud: Quote: Dear Fulgar, I'm sorry that we didn't get our spar, but I need to be moving on as I have been in one place for quite a long time.. I need to broaden my earthbending skills by observing the water and air benders. A spar with them in their own territory would make for an interesting adventure. If you want to find me, I'll be at the Northern Water Tribe. - Jonah, earthbending instructor Fulgar dropped the letter on the table, and looked at Kurai, “well. I guess I have nothing left to do in Omashu. We just gotta get your weapon, then we’ll be off.” “I’m going to sleep. Night, Kurai.” Fulgar propped his scythe against a wall in the dojo and curled into a bal on the padded floor of the dojo. (1/50)

The Airbender lay quietly in his cell constantly feeling the jagged scar that had formed across his chest. He thought only of escape, and of destroying the firebenders that had placed him in his pathetic state. As his fingers ran across the sponge like tissue he whispered to himself, counting the time until the guard would return with his food.
There was a creaking noise and then the door opened. For a moment Jing felt himself return to the world of the living, but as soon as the food was gone he drifted back into the dark void between sleeping and awake.
Slowly shapes began to emerge from the shadows. The first of these shapes twisted and turned until it formed the familiar face of the first monk who had ever tried to teach him, “We warned you this would happen you mut,” laughing at a joke only he could hear the monk disappeared back into the darkness.
After the monk was gone another face emerged to take its place. An airbender tattoo ran along the forehead of a clean shaven face, and a pair of opaque eyes stared quietly at Jing. The face spoke slowly, as one might address a child who was easily confused, “What happened to you Jing? How could you let them do this?”
Jing simply covered his ears, and rolled to face the wall. This was not the first time the faces had appeared to him and he knew it would not be the last, at this point the only thing he could do was try and ignore them. But the voices would not be denied, they continued to cry out mournfully until Jing curled his body into a feeble position quiet whimpering to himself.
((cool H.p))
