chapter 6

We had been walking in the forest just long enough that we couldnt hear the townspeople anymore, but not long enough that we could see the cabin.

"So, now that we are away from them, WHAT WAS THAT" sokka asked as he gestured with his hands back to the town.

"Well, i can see the past, present, and future of a person with skin on skin contact between me and them, it really dosnt matter where. It will always happen." Sokka started to wave his hands back and forth.

"Hang on, that's not what I'm talking about, but since we are there. Aang has had his arm around you this whole time, with his hand touching your shoulder?" I turn my head, and sure enough, his hand is on my shoulder.

" I dont know, it dosnt seem to happen when aang touches me, but it always happens with everyone else. Even if I dont want it to" aang lightly squeezed me to his side.

"What do you mean by 'even if you dont want to' y/n" he gently asked me. I syed before I answered him.

"Like if I get touched accidentally, I'll have a vision about them. If I fall and someone goes to catch me, I'll have a vision about them. Only when its skin on skin contact." Sokka nodded his head as he rubbed his chin in understanding before he shook it and asked.

"Ok so what happened at the statue, your eyes started glowing blue like when aang is in the avatar state, and you started talking weird like when aang does in the avatar state." I cocked my head to the side as I gave him a confused look.

"I was talking?..... what did I say"

"You were saying about how the Oracle and avatar have to lo-" aang cut sokka off with a cough.

"Travel to gather, how we have to travel together. Y/n is it alright if we stop here, I need to talk to you about.... some.... things" aang asked me as he scratched the back of his neck and looked to the side.

"Ok, Penelope, can you guide sokka back please, oh and sokka make sure you give her an apple when you get back. Make sure it's a green one, those are her favorites"

"And can you make sure to let everyone know not to touch her, thanks sokka, your the best" aang added ad we walked over to a stream that was coming off the mountain, small waterfalls here and there. None even close to the one back at the cabin.

"Hey, why am I the one stuck with all the work" sokka yelled.

"Well, what are you looking at, your the one to lead the way" he mumbled as he walked off as I heard Penelope ney.

"I know you dont like me, I'm sorry I didnt know you wer-" that's the last I could hear as they walked farther off. Aang and I sat down to the side of the stream. Aang went into his meditation pose, so I did as well. After some time of us just sitting listening to the sounds of nature, he speaks.

"I'm so glad I found you" it was a hushed whisper that I had trouble hearing.

"What aang" I said as I opened my eyes and turned my head to face him. He quickly enveloped me in a tight hug and pulled me so I was sitting on his lap, leaning into him with my side, and my legs overtop one another hanging off him.

"I was so scared that when I ran away, and all the air nomads were killed, that you died too and I broke the cycle of the Oracle. I thought I ruined the balance of the earth, but" he pulled away to look at me. Now I could see the tears running down his face as he confessed his deepest turmoil to me.

"Why are you so young, you should be around 100.... or did the Oracle before you live that long" I reached my hand up and brushed a few tears from his face.

"Aang, when you ran away, and got trapped in the ice. I was supposed to be born into this world. However, because you were lost, the spirits didnt known where to take me, seeing as how I was supposed to be born at the same temple you were at. Before they could place me, I was born into a different world, one where there is such advanced technology and medicine. But bending never existed there. By the time the spirits found me to bring me home and with you... I was already 30" he looked at me confused when I said that and he was about to talk before I continued.

"Because i was supposed to be 12 years younger then you, as they brought me back. 12 years was taken off my life and brought me back to being 18" he nodded his head in understanding as he looked down prosesing what i told him.

"I'm so sorry, if i hadn't run away, if i hadn-" he started to cry much harder as he talked and i grabbed his face with both hands wiping his tears with my thumbs as I make him look at me.

"Hey, hey, hey, shhh, shhhhh, it's ok, you did what you were supposed to do" he chuckled sadly.

"What I was suppo-" I cut him off.

"Aang, if you would have stayed, at the age you were, with the knowledge you had. When the fire nation came, you would have lost control and gone into the avatar state.... and you would have died..... breaking the avatars cycle... and the fire nation would have ruled over the whole world..... and the world would have ended.... I'm glad you didnt stay... because now.. day by day... you put the world back where it is supposed to be" he looked to me curiously.

"How can you be so sure" I gave him a soft smile as I answered.

"I saw a vision of it"
