the shifting sands

[kalec]

shu'kun slowly walked slowly on the sand, he had just been at the earth , now he must start his trip to the fire nation capital city like he allways did, the sun was high up in the sky, making the sand hot. witch he didnt care the desert was his home, the sand was everything to him, his friends, and his family. shu'kun stoped as he heard the whistling of the wind, but somtimes the sand wa his foe.... he turned to see a sandstorm heading right for him.


shu'kun stood silently staring at a large sand storm that headed right for him. he quickly reached his hands out,though he could not control the wind that caused the storm he could control the sand. waiting intill the sandstorm was only a foot away, he quickly speard his hands the sand split around him. after a few moments the sand storm had pasted, he started to walk once agien. sometimes he felt lonly he knew he would never seesomone out in the desert, that would be crazy. but somtimes he missed the compeny of people, and other times he did not...

[Prince Zunko]

( do u mind?)

As it turned out there was someone else in the desert that day. Fire nation prince Zunko had walked out into the desert in hopes of finding the long lost Wun Shi Tong library which legend holds was sunk after Wun Shi Tong and Avatar Aang had a dispute about information regarding the firenation.

Although he did not expect to find it Zunko found he loved the desert sun and found his bending considerably increased in power than usual and using the barren harsh landscape to practise with he managed to create a fire shield covering his whole body which had proved useful in the frequent sandstorms and he managed to cook a giant beetle in minutes and though he later regretted eating it the next morning.

Now he was heading for misty palms oasis and from there home it was high time he paid a visit to hi father and mother, He was also getting survere homesickness, besides he promised his mother he'd keep in touch and she'd probably be having a fit right now as there's not many meen of communicating in the desert.

As he was walking pondering these things he noticed a sand storm heading straight for a man in the distance. Turning serious Zunko created jets of flame from both feet and hands, wizzing off towards the peck of an outline knowing that he could not save him Zunko was still not one to wach someone get ripped apart by a sandstorm.

Zunko felt his heart sink as he saw the figure dissapear into the tornado of sand, though he nevertheless continued with faint hope, that quickly rose as he saw the figure come at of the hail of sand and continue calmly.

Realising it was a sandbender Zunko was now driven by curiosity he continued his pace. The sandbenders were particularly gruff and untalkative though he still wanted to get along with atleast one before he left the desert and had good feeling about this one.

Pulling up and skidding to a halt a couple of meters away from the figure he spoke between panting breaths.
"Hi...there... my names... Zunko" He managed to squize out looking as if he had just done the worlds biggest marathon.

Then quite comically he collapsed on his back falling straight asleep.
