"Oh? Suki returned?" Three Kyoshi warriors smile at a large group. Unlike the uniformed cadets, the three women wear casual robes and washed-up jackets as they sit near a stream not far from a rushing waterfall as the scenery becomes lusher near this fertile region.
"She did," smiles Ria as the three Kyoshi Warriors of the other settlement glance at the new group. "And them?" They question curiously.
"Suki trained them, and they agreed to become Kyoshi Warriors like us." This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
"Some got forced into it," Jin mutters under her breath. Jin is Suki's first proper 'creation' as she still claims she only wanted to train. But she never knew how much slippery slope training with a Kyoshi Warrior could be!
Others pay little attention to Jin's grumbling as one of the three girls chimes curiously.
"Wait, you seven! Your faces look so similar!"
"That's cause we are similar, bitch," Ty Woo(6) smirks.
"Forget about them," Jie interjects, "You can meet Suki and the plunderer later with us."
"The Plunderer is here?"
"Is the Avatar here, too?"
Jie cuts their questions and chases to the point, "I know you guys don't believe what I saw. But you have protected Koi Harbor for a long time. Did you witness anything strange?" She asks while setting her full basket on the ground. "Please, I keep on thinking something is going on. I know I saw a strange group in the Kyoshi Attire walking from Koi Harbor into a cave behind the Crystal Falls near the Crescent Bridge!"
She points at the wooden bridge not far from downstream and demands, "Anything is fine! There must be something weird. Did no other merchant see a Pirate Ship near the Island?"
The three Kyoshi Warriors of the Koi Harbor look at each other meaningfully, something Michi notes as she inclines her head.
"Something happened, right?"
"Well, it was after you and Oyaji came to check things," reveals one of the girls. "There is a rumor going around in the Harbor that Avatar Kyoshi visits a few villagers in the Harbor at night."
This piece of news takes the group by surprise as the girl continues. "We all intensified our patrolling at night. We even went to check Avatar Kyoshi's relics in her shrine. But nothing. It's like Avatar Kyoshi decided to stop visiting the Harbor the second we got wind of it."
"Did someone play a prank on you guys?" Ty Liu(4) questions and looks at her sister. "It's like the prank Lin(1) pulled on us when we were kids, saying she could see our mother."
"I could!" Ty Lin(1) retorts indignantly.
Other girls behind the two groups look at each other as Kya mouths discreetly—Spirits?
"I'm sure you could," Ty Lee(7) pats her eldest sister's back knowingly. "And I totally did not sneak into our kitchen to eat the leftover dumplings meant for all of us in the morning because I was mad at you a lot." The other six stare at the innocuously smirking Ty Lee with their peeved 'aura' introducing itself to their expressions.
"I always knew you still look a little fat," Ty Lum(5) scoffs.
"What?!" Ty Lee retorts. "I'm not fat!... Am I?" She whips her head to look at the generous council of mothers who would always help other girls emotionally.
"Of course not," smiles Michi.
"You all look very graceful," Ursa compliments with apparent ease.
"Every mother would envy having you all as their daughters," Poppy nods.
"Ty Woo should learn some manners, but the rest are fine," Kya nods, too. But she soon feels everyone's gaze on her as Ty Woo's lips part slightly.
"Shouldn't we criticize bad manners?" Kya looks at her peers. "Katara would never talk like that, after all."
"But she would suck dicks with you?!" Ty Woo snaps as other Kyoshi Warriors find their cheeks stinging with embarrassment and filthy curiosity.
"Public manners are important, but I didn't mean to say you are bad," Kya soothingly smiles, "As Poppy said, every mother would envy daughters like you, including you, Ty Woo."
Ty Woo crosses her arms, grumbling as she averts her gaze.
"How cute," Ty Lao(3) smirks. "Woo's aura is so pink!"
"It's not!"
"It so is!" The other six sisters chorus.
"We don't have time for all this!" Jie interjects, her make-up covering her beet-red face as she demands the remaining three Kyoshi Warriors of Koi Harbor on their breaks. "Rumors began after we checked things, right? And they stopped the second you girls tried finding out the truth. Anything else?"
"Oh! There's another thing." Speaks one of the girls as she tries hard not to look at the Ty-Sisters and the four mothers. "The northern cliff has no Dumpling Weeds."
"What?" Jie exclaims. "The cliff grows the highest number of weeds. We go there every month to clear it out so that the weed's roots don't weaken the cliff."
The girl sighs and shrugs.
"It just disappeared. We checked it two days ago when one of the children in the Harbor went there to pluck some legumes for her soup."
Jie works her jaws as Jin shrugs as if putting things together.
"Weeding Dumpling Weeds from land sure sounds easy for an Earthbender, right?"
Other girls flinch in surprise before looking at each other slightly anxiously.
"We should go to Oyaji!" Ria claims suddenly as the remaining three girls look at each other. "We'll tell this to our chief and send a team to scout things out, too. Oh, and hey!" They call out to the quickly moving group of Kyoshi Warriors. "Ask Suki not to leave the Island without saying Goodbye! We want to see the Plunderer, too!"
"And the Avatar!" exclaims one of the three girls with a dusting of red on her cheeks.
---
"What is that?" Meilin blanks as the veritable picture of perfection nudge open the doors and elegantly trots into the Shrine after Suki has been sitting in place for 10 minutes. The scaled perfection with folded wings on her back is easily as big as the smallest Elephant Koi, deep-green scales with a moderate golden sheen cover her body from her back to her belly, and two grey-gold horns jut out from her head, matching the blunt spikes rising from her neck to her tail that maps her spine.
"SHE," Suki emphasizes, "Is a Dragon. Her name is Ignit."
Ignit raises her head and looks around before walking toward a pair of large boots on the counter.
"A Dragon? A DRAGON?" Meilin gasps. "The Mythical Beasts?"
*Sniff*
Suki looks at the curious Ignit sniffing things, smiling wryly. "Well, you can see Ignit is quite grounded in reality. Did Mingxia ever tell you the story of us trying to wear Kyoshi's boots?"
"Nik," surprisingly, she does the same. "I enjoyed how you dealt with Reaper. It must have been hard to kill yourself again."
"It was, at first," Nik smiles shakily before he shakes his head. "Do you want something?"
"When we first met, I called you honorable. I sensed your hesitation in that notion. I believe this is the last time we may meet for a while, so I shall give you a productive solution to your situation based on your answer."
Nik's shoulders relax as he questions himself, "Am I honorable or not? Is that it?"
Kyoshi smiles gently but doesn't say anything.
"I wondered that for a while after we left Kyoshi Island," Nik mutters. "But then I slept with another man's wife, got captured, and shit happened. I truly questioned this once I killed a man. I did not use tools meant to kill to complete the deed. I could have made it painless, but I didn't. I butchered him." He looks up, matching Kyoshi's deep green pupils. "I killed many more in Regret's world. I killed variations of those who hurt me with quite the joy. I-"
He recalls the more compassionate people around him, wondering how they would react if he revealed everything to them with such bluntness.
"I don't believe killers are right to call themselves honorable. And I might joke about it or be hypocritical about it—but I'm not Honorable. Sorry."
"Why do you apologize?"
"Can you blame me?" Nik smiles. "You whisk me away and pose philosophical topics without revealing your intentions. How does a man like me comprehend all that? I just want to live as well as I can in this life."
"You value life, right?" Kyoshi inclines her head. "Many great warriors claim to be honorable at the expense of another's pain. I taught the Kyoshi Warriors self-defense for the same reason—to help and not attack. Do you remember Aang telling you the injuries you received by Koh, the Face Stealer, can only be healed by Firebending and Earthbending?"
Nik nods. "This is what he meant by Firebending, right?" He snaps his fingers, producing a peal of Golden Flames."
"Flames of Nirvana. A talented Firebender learned it, too, long before by burning his life itself," Kyoshi nods. "Of course, since Tui and La never healed anyone before, Avatars like us in the Spiritual Realm never did consider the possibility of Waterbending having such a skill either."
"I see," Nik accepts whatever Kyoshi has to say at the moment.
"Will you return?" She questions abruptly.
"Hmm?"
"Will you return to this world?"
"I don't know. I barely survived this time," Nik smiles wryly. "And I have no control where I travel for the time being. Maybe once I'm stronger."
Kyoshi beckons Nik forward as a wave of gust rises the greyish sand around them to whirl over Kyoshi as she appears as a young woman in her early twenties. She wears her long, voluminous brown hair in a loose plate with loose strands falling on her forehead, framing her rather simple, freckled face. But she stands as tall as ever, her thick brown brows inclines up at the edge as she narrows her eyes.
"A plain face would be an accurate description, wouldn't you say?"
"Did you just read my mind?"
"I've lived for more than 200 years without losing this face. I know what others tend to think," Kyoshi smirks with a flicker of sadness in her eyes. "This is my parting gift," she closes her eyes, within arm's reach to touch Nik's head. "From one dishonorable one to another, who just want to protect our loved ones and live a selfish life of happiness. And when you return, I hope you are powerful and successful in your ambitions. The stories you would have amassed must be exceptional at that point."
Nik's lips part as he points out, "Wait- You should meet Suki instead. She couldn't meet you previously—"
Kyoshi hears none of it as a voice booms in his senses without Kyoshi speaking anything, "Live a long life. Longer than 200 years. I will share my bloodiest stories since I haven't found someone quite innocently brutal like you in years."
Nik's eyes widen as he sees Kyoshi's smile broaden.
'You never needed this power to live the way you wanted.' He hears her voice as he recalls his monumental task of getting saved by Kyoshi while he was busy saving Suki from Unagi's jaws. 'I lied that day. I knew you weren't the least bit honorable. I suppose I just wanted to mess with you a little. After all, I am a Spirit, too.'
Nik's gaze flickers as he snaps out of his daze, finding others staring at him as the wind paces to life again.
Memories and shared experiences fill him with one familiar feeling—the same feeling La gifted him and the Dragons shared with Zuko—an essence of comprehension and enlightenment.
There may come a chance when Nik could form similar essences to bestow on some lucky fool in their quest, but now, he stares at the screen marking his improvement.
[Earth Element Mastery (Expert→ Master): The manipulation and enlightenment of elements of the earth either in nature or through one's creation in the realm of a master. (Additional Info: Through constant training, a noob turns into an expert, and an expert reaches the realm of a master.)]
What Kyoshi shared wasn't anything strictly about Earthbending itself.
'Open your mind to possibilities,' she advises one last time before her voice goes silent.
What she shared is something undocumented in his library, a form of Earthbending similar to Waterbending's Bloodbending.
He stares at the silent Koi before confidently walking toward the large beast, placing his hand on its side.
"What are you doing?" June notes the slightest change as she leans forward curiously while still sitting on her paralyzed victim, thanks to Nyla's tongue.
"Waking this fish up," Nik chuckles as he looks at Toph smugly. Again, he has no right to be smug, but that is why he is the dishonorable one as he smoothly accepts his momentary growth over the Blind Bandit for granted, knowing she would find her way to top him using her virtuous talent like usual.
'Did Kyoshi get annoyed by other equally talented friends of hers? Wait, why would I assume she would have friends? She was kind of a bitch messing with my head like that.'
It's a good thing Kyoshi cannot read his memories.
"Toph, can you do this?" He goads as his chi drives into the Koi and seizes control of the skeletal frame of the aquatic animal before jolting it with such pressure that it creaks against the affected muscles, forcing the Koi out of the slumber.
{A/N: I'm not a doctor and don't know if shock therapy right to the bones helps a patient OD'ing on muscle relaxants. It's just Kyoshi things. Don't try this on your pet goldfish.}

"Public manners are important, but I didn't mean to say you are bad," Kya soothingly smiles, "As Poppy said, every mother would envy daughters like you, including you, Ty Woo." Ty Woo crosses her arms, grumbling as she averts her gaze. "How cute," Ty Lao3 smirks. "Woo's aura is so pink!" "It's not!" "It so is!" The other six sisters chorus. "We don't have time for all this!" Jie interjects, her make-up covering her beet-red face as she demands the remaining three Kyoshi Warriors of Koi Harbor on their breaks. "Rumors began after we checked things, right? And they stopped the second you girls tried finding out the truth. Anything else?" "Oh! There's another thing." Speaks one of the girls as she tries hard not to look at the Ty-Sisters and the four mothers. "The northern cliff has no Dumpling Weeds." "What?" Jie exclaims. "The cliff grows the highest number of weeds. We go there every month to clear it out so that the weed's roots don't weaken the cliff." The girl sighs and shrugs. "It just disappeared. We checked it two days ago when one of the children in the Harbor went there to pluck some legumes for her soup." Jie works her jaws as Jin shrugs as if putting things together. "Weeding Dumpling Weeds from land sure sounds easy for an Earthbender, right?" Other girls flinch in surprise before looking at each other slightly anxiously. "We should go to Oyaji!" Ria claims suddenly as the remaining three girls look at each other. "We'll tell this to our chief and send a team to scout things out, too. Oh, and hey!" They call out to the quickly moving group of Kyoshi Warriors. "Ask Suki not to leave the Island without saying Goodbye! We want to see the Plunderer, too!" "And the Avatar!" exclaims one of the three girls with a dusting of red on her cheeks. --- "What is that?" Meilin blanks as the veritable picture of perfection nudge open the doors and elegantly trots into the Shrine after Suki has been sitting in place for 10 minutes. The scaled perfection with folded wings on her back is easily as big as the smallest Elephant Koi, deep-green scales with a moderate golden sheen cover her body from her back to her belly, and two grey-gold horns jut out from her head, matching the blunt spikes rising from her neck to her tail that maps her spine. "SHE," Suki emphasizes, "Is a Dragon. Her name is Ignit." Ignit raises her head and looks around before walking toward a pair of large boots on the counter. "A Dragon? A DRAGON?" Meilin gasps. "The Mythical Beasts?" *Sniff* Suki looks at the curious Ignit sniffing things, smiling wryly. "Well, you can see Ignit is quite grounded in reality. Did Mingxia ever tell you the story of us trying to wear Kyoshi's boots?" "Nik," surprisingly, she does the same. "I enjoyed how you dealt with Reaper. It must have been hard to kill yourself again." "It was, at first," Nik smiles shakily before he shakes his head. "Do you want something?" "When we first met, I called you honorable. I sensed your hesitation in that notion. I believe this is the last time we may meet for a while, so I shall give you a productive solution to your situation based on your answer." Nik's shoulders relax as he questions himself, "Am I honorable or not? Is that it?" Kyoshi smiles gently but doesn't say anything. "I wondered that for a while after we left Kyoshi Island," Nik mutters. "But then I slept with another man's wife, got captured, and shit happened. I truly questioned this once I killed a man. I did not use tools meant to kill to complete the deed. I could have made it painless, but I didn't. I butchered him." He looks up, matching Kyoshi's deep green pupils. "I killed many more in Regret's world. I killed variations of those who hurt me with quite the joy. I-" He recalls the more compassionate people around him, wondering how they would react if he revealed everything to them with such bluntness. "I don't believe killers are right to call themselves honorable. And I might joke about it or be hypocritical about itbut I'm not Honorable. Sorry." "Why do you apologize?" "Can you blame me?" Nik smiles. "You whisk me away and pose philosophical topics without revealing your intentions. How does a man like me comprehend all that? I just want to live as well as I can in this life." "You value life, right?" Kyoshi inclines her head. "Many great warriors claim to be honorable at the expense of another's pain. I taught the Kyoshi Warriors self-defense for the same reasonto help and not attack. Do you remember Aang telling you the injuries you received by Koh, the Face Stealer, can only be healed by Firebending and Earthbending?" Nik nods. "This is what he meant by Firebending, right?" He snaps his fingers, producing a peal of Golden Flames." "Flames of Nirvana. A talented Firebender learned it, too, long before by burning his life itself," Kyoshi nods. "Of course, since Tui and La never healed anyone before, Avatars like us in the Spiritual Realm never did consider the possibility of Waterbending having such a skill either." "I see," Nik accepts whatever Kyoshi has to say at the moment. "Will you return?" She questions abruptly. "Hmm?" "Will you return to this world?" "I don't know. I barely survived this time," Nik smiles wryly. "And I have no control where I travel for the time being. Maybe once I'm stronger." Kyoshi beckons Nik forward as a wave of gust rises the greyish sand around them to whirl over Kyoshi as she appears as a young woman in her early twenties. She wears her long, voluminous brown hair in a loose plate with loose strands falling on her forehead, framing her rather simple, freckled face. But she stands as tall as ever, her thick brown brows inclines up at the edge as she narrows her eyes. "A plain face would be an accurate description, wouldn't you say?" "Did you just read my mind?" "I've lived for more than 200 years without losing this face. I know what others tend to think," Kyoshi smirks with a flicker of sadness in her eyes. "This is my parting gift," she closes her eyes, within arm's reach to touch Nik's head. "From one dishonorable one to another, who just want to protect our loved ones and live a selfish life of happiness. And when you return, I hope you are powerful and successful in your ambitions. The stories you would have amassed must be exceptional at that point." Nik's lips part as he points out, "Wait- You should meet Suki instead. She couldn't meet you previously" Kyoshi hears none of it as a voice booms in his senses without Kyoshi speaking anything, "Live a long life. Longer than 200 years. I will share my bloodiest stories since I haven't found someone quite innocently brutal like you in years." Nik's eyes widen as he sees Kyoshi's smile broaden. 'You never needed this power to live the way you wanted.' He hears her voice as he recalls his monumental task of getting saved by Kyoshi while he was busy saving Suki from Unagi's jaws. 'I lied that day. I knew you weren't the least bit honorable. I suppose I just wanted to mess with you a little. After all, I am a Spirit, too.' Nik's gaze flickers as he snaps out of his daze, finding others staring at him as the wind paces to life again. Memories and shared experiences fill him with one familiar feelingthe same feeling La gifted him and the Dragons shared with Zukoan essence of comprehension and enlightenment. There may come a chance when Nik could form similar essences to bestow on some lucky fool in their quest, but now, he stares at the screen marking his improvement. Earth Element Mastery Expert Master: The manipulation and enlightenment of elements of the earth either in nature or through one's creation in the realm of a master. Additional Info: Through constant training, a noob turns into an expert, and an expert reaches the realm of a master. What Kyoshi shared wasn't anything strictly about Earthbending itself. 'Open your mind to possibilities,' she advises one last time before her voice goes silent. What she shared is something undocumented in his library, a form of Earthbending similar to Waterbending's Bloodbending. He stares at the silent Koi before confidently walking toward the large beast, placing his hand on its side. "What are you doing?" June notes the slightest change as she leans forward curiously while still sitting on her paralyzed victim, thanks to Nyla's tongue. "Waking this fish up," Nik chuckles as he looks at Toph smugly. Again, he has no right to be smug, but that is why he is the dishonorable one as he smoothly accepts his momentary growth over the Blind Bandit for granted, knowing she would find her way to top him using her virtuous talent like usual. 'Did Kyoshi get annoyed by other equally talented friends of hers? Wait, why would I assume she would have friends? She was kind of a bitch messing with my head like that.' It's a good thing Kyoshi cannot read his memories. "Toph, can you do this?" He goads as his chi drives into the Koi and seizes control of the skeletal frame of the aquatic animal before jolting it with such pressure that it creaks against the affected muscles, forcing the Koi out of the slumber. {A/N: I'm not a doctor and don't know if shock therapy right to the bones helps a patient OD'ing on muscle relaxants. It's just Kyoshi things.
