The trip to Ember Island wasn't a very long one. During that time, Yue was given a brief description of the Avatar, though it was vague, it would still be easier than trying to find him without one. Once at the island, he set off in search for the Avatar. His staff he now held in his right hand, and with his posture and expression, it would be obvious to anyone that he was a soldier. Being heavily armed gave it away as well. Though his serious appearance was ruined a bit by the pieces of hair that refused to stay in his pony tail. Cutting it short would make it easier to maintain, but he happened to like his long hair. It was his one vanity.

Yue heard the whispers as people wondered what a lone soldier was doing here. But he gracefully ignored them and moved in. Golden brown eyes swept around as he searched for any signs of the Avatar. In the natural light of the sun, his eyes actually looked the color that they were supposed to. But any change in the lighting and his eyes would shift colors. It was something he disliked greatly. Especially the way they turned an almost glowing orange near fire. Some of the other soldiers had made a point to check his eyes in all different types of lighting. Just to see how many colors they could turn.

Finally, Yue found himself wandering through the market. The smell of fresh foods made him realize just how long it had been since he had eaten. It had been very early in the morning when he had gotten up, and he had a small breakfast then. Other than that, which was a long time ago, he had eaten nothing. But that would have to wait, he had a job to do. Finding the Avatar was more important, because if the Avatar died, his own life was forfeit. So while the temptation to stop was great, he fought it off as best as he could.

It was here in the market that Yue found the Avatar. The vague description he had been given matched, and the Armadillo Bear gave it away. Quickening his pace, he moved up alongside the Avatar. [color=778899]"Avatar Masaru?"[/color] He stated, waiting for the boy to look at him before saluting. [color=778899]"My name is Yue Wudao. I have been sent by the Fire Nation army to protect you."[/color] He got right to the point and didn't bother wasting time by saying anything else. Whether the Avatar wanted him to or not, he would be protecting him.
