Nyima held Rayn's hand as she ran around the corner with him, away from her brother. She opened her mouth to begin to explain the quick departure when Rayn started to speak. She looked at him, [I]Just a friend... But you didn't complain that you were my Nyima?[/I] She was suddenly getting pulled close to him. A moment later, her back was against the wall with Rayn preventing her escape. [i]Now you are saying take me? Are you implying something Nyima?[/I]

Her cheeks burned red when he brought what she had said moments ago. She hadn't even thought about it that way, she was just trying to get away from her brother so that she could tell Rayn about the Airbender. She closed her mouth that had still been hanging open since she tried to speak in the first place. She shook her head, "We are just friends... and... um...." she didn't have much of a rebuttle for the Nyima thing. What could she say to that? She didn't complain that she was 'his Nyima'. She bit her lip, trying to keep her head on straight, making sure nothing could be taken wrong, "And I meant take me to work."

She brought her hand up and rested it on his elbow, "As for the whole... Your Nyima thing... well," her other hand rose to touch his cheek as she smiled. A moment later, she pulled his arm toward her, rotating his head away until she had flipped their positioning. She winked, "You taught her a few tricks," Not moving away from him, she kept him pinned against the wall, "Now, the real reason I wanted you to take me... [I]away[/I], was I saw the Airbender from the other day in the house. I couldn't exactly say that in front of my brother now..." Her face went red again, "You don't think he took that comment the same way...... Oh spirits...."

Zenji stepped back at the woman that came in with the White Lotus walked up to Masuto, introducing herself. She was slightly surprised when the woman turned to her and said that she would like to protect her as well. At the mention of bad people Zenji nodded. She started to pull her hair up into a bun, hiding her shaking hands, "I am... aware of these people... I've had quite a few run ins with them myself."

Her hands fell back to her sides and she was suddenly being pulled into a hug. She laughed a little and hugged Masuto back, "I feel as though you are wise enough to know that isn't true. Trust me, Airbenders are wise beyond their years."

She grabbed her staff and held it across her body while Masuto announced they should leave. She looked at the Armadillo Bear that he called upon and smiled, "Good to see you again, Kuei,"

She glanced at Masuto and placed a hand on his shoulder, "Say goodbye... It was one thing I know that Avatar Aang regretted for not doing." she smiled at him, "I'll meet you outside."

She looked at Zhi and grinned, "Care to join me?" As she walked toward the door, there was a soft knock and a girl calling hello. Zenji turned and looked at Masuto, "I believe one of your friends has arrived and missed the big announcement, Avatar."
