[color=ac1414]"We gotta get out of here and get to my boat before the smelly airbender steals it!"[/color] She growled, racing towards the metal-covered stonework. There were a few rioting prisoners beating futilely against the wall who were about to be very useful. Throwing her right hand up, Jai let loose a concentrated blast of fire, watching the flickering orange blast impact the deadly-looking razor wire at the top of the wall. Pouncing forward, Jai let loose a feral growl as she leaped onto the shoulders of a rioting prisoner and used his height to spring up. Lashing out with her left hands, Jai twisted her wrist and tossed the chain upwards, watching with surprised satisfaction as it wrapped around a piton connected to the ruined razor wire, and gave her the final edge she needed to pull herself up onto the wall.

With her new vantage point, Jai now saw the threats Laoshan had been talking about. The old man was staying put too, seemingly waiting for her and the other airbender. Jai whistled up to the watchtower to get his attention, glaring up at him with fire in her eyes. [color=ac1414]"Hey! You better hope you know how to sail if you plan on ditching me again!"[/color]

[color=blanchedalmond]"So, you're an Airbender too? Don't think I'm about to let that go, we've probably got business to settle with each other-"[/color] He glanced down at the swiftly approaching, small army headed their way. [color=blanchedalmond]"After we escape. I'm not leaving without my glider though. If we don't find it on the way to the ship, I have to sneak back in afterward and find it here, it's just that I'm not crazy enough to stay while an army's here on high alert. You can leave me behind then, but it's something I need to do. You might wanna take the pirate lady though. I wouldn't wanna piss her off."[/color]

Laoshan blinked. He looked from the young firebender, who was LEGITIMATELY impressive at this point, to the nomad boy trying to pick a fight with him, and loudly declaring that he would break back into the prison after they escaped. His head throbbed, his eyes still burning from the noonday light. The light of noon. When they were escaping. Spirits behold, he loved his life, and this youngblood was going to cause nothing but trouble.

Of course, he could always… Heh.

Laoshan took one solid look at the younger airbender, glanced back at the approaching army, let off a nasty grin. [color=82ca9d]“So you think we have business to attend to, eh?”[/color] The air nomad chuckled as he dropped down from the tower, landing next to the youths with the softness of air cradling his descent. [color=82ca9d]“Baldy…”[/color] The monk paused, his body stiff, and turned exactly 90 degrees to face the oncoming army. Cupping his hands, Laoshan cried out, [h2][color=82ca9d]“OH, YOU’RE GOING TO BREAK BACK INTO THE 8 FOLD PRISON, HERE, IN THE NORTHEAST SECTOR OF THE CITY, AFTER WE ESCAPE TO GET BACK YOUR [i]AIRBENDING STAFF??[/i] THAT SURE IS GOOD TO KNOW.”[/color][/h2]

The sound echoed off of walls of the city, supernaturally enhanced by the absolutely astounding lung capacity of a master airbender and the geography of Ba Sing Se. It bounced from the walls, curved off of the ground, and there wasn’t a penguin-owl’s chance in a volcano that it didn’t reach the swiftly approaching horde of An’s cronies. 

Laoshan turned back, his rank breath escaping through bloodied, smiling lips. [color=82ca9d]“Now, we have business to settle with each other.”[/color]

Without another word, the drunkard leapt from the wall, jetting off another burst of wind and sprinting down the stonework to the streets below. He landed with the puff of a zephyr, feet tapping lightly onto the cobblestones before launching him deeper into the city. [color=82ca9d]“We better hurry, kids, the army gets here soon! Best of luck to both of you! Badger Girl, I hope you’re there when I get to your boat or it’s miiiiiine…!”[/color]

The monk’s voice echoed up to the stone walls as he ran. He smiled through the pain of his throbbing skull. Those two would have to move fast or they would get caught, and if he had guessed right, he had given them juuuuuust the incentive they needed. They would be after his head, and something told him that a shared goal would help them work together. Besides... [color=82ca9d]“First lesson of being an airbender is freedom. Can’t be free if you’re too attached to your earthly possessions. Hell, I’ll make him another one after he cools off, but breaking back in [i]after the prison break[/i] would be suicide.”[/color]

Kids these days, he swore…
