Nyima allowed him to help her to her feet. She looked at him as he explained the fighting style that would allow her to fight, even with poor balance. She nodded her head, "Looks like we have something else to add to our list of things I need to learn."
She flinched when he flicked the water his hand at her, "Truce!" she cried once she opened her eyes. She laughed a little, "I was going to bend the water out of your clothes as a peace offering but now... Tough luck." Before he could say anything to defend himself She turned on her heel and made she moved quick enough that her wet hair smacked him before she walked to her bedroom, "Good night, Rayn."
She as walked into her bedroom he said, "Not like you were already wet! " he walked to the bathroom.
" I was going to take a shower anyways!" He said as he went into the bathroom:
Once he finished he too went to bed. He woke up early in the morning at which he moved to the dojo and started to stretch.

She laughed after he tackled her and looked up at him, "I don't think you want to call a truce."
"If you did, you would have continued to hide out in the bathroom and just plugged the faucet," she giggled, "But instead you came out and tackled me!"
He shook his head. " I'm making a truce by making you surrender. " He said with a smile. She shook her head, "I do think that you have to teach how deal with defending while off balance... Because twice now you've taken advantage of my poor balance."
Nyima crossed her arms as she looked him in the eye, "Fine... I'll call a truce... for now... If you promise to ask well."
He nodded and said. "Promise. "
He helped her up and said. " Only style that uses unbalance to its advantage is Drunken Fist, which you are not even age legal to use that style." He smiled "but I'm sure you can study the basics. " best thing to do is to use it to your advantage to get away. To learn how to shift your balance you can fight anywhere.
He flicked some water off his hand at her.

Looking up to Masuto, she offered a feeble smile in a poor attempt to lighten the mood. "I suppose we must come off as rude.. It looks as if you were having a party here, your birthday? Sorry about the party-crashing.. Especially since we must seem so unfamiliar to you.. But, if it is.. Happy Birthday!" She glanced to Zhou as if expecting apparently him to join in.
He looked at Masuto and for a moment he said nothing. He was talking with his mother about feeling something. He looked at Mizuki and raised an eyebrow he then said" happy birthday... Young avatar... I'm sorry to say that you must go and get ready to leave... We have a long journey ahead of us... And better we leave soon... Perhaps this is not safe once word gets around about you."
He didn't wait for an answer as he turned around and walked outside looking at the Airbender who was pulling herself together. He looked forward and said softly. " I'm sorry for your loss. Death of close friends and family is a hard thing." He looked down.

He watched her as She thought about it herself before sighing, "But what can he offer them that Zhou can't. They'll need to keep their group small, just the necessities..."
Another reason why we couldn't be the moles. He thought to himself.
She looked between the two men, "However, can we not talk about this here?... It is probably best to go somewhere more private... This isn't really something that should be discussed in public and we need to move fast."
" No need to worry here miss." He smiled and waved to the room. "We are all friends here in the common cause." He then motioned with the twist of his head I follow him. As they did they would come to an office filled with trophies and clippings of his wins and His gym. " we may continue to talk here if you fear of overhearing." He sat down in a large office chair and placed his fingertips together. " What can I offer? " he motioned trophies around. "I'm sure this Zhou is an exellent fighter in your books. He may be a worthy opponent. But I'm guessing he is not a bender if you compared him to me. " he smiled" I know every style of bending. Course I can't bend but I can teach a bender forms... Which would be helpful for the new Avatar. Which is VERY exciting news by the way, but what I have that most likely he doesn't?" He smiled even more. "The art of nullifying ones bending ability... With five pin point exact blows I can block the chi and their ability to bend, even if they are the masters of it. "
He looked at the man. "I would actually like that odds. It would be most interesting."
He lanes back and said, "you still haven't given me your names. Which is quite rude coming into my home." He said politely
"My name is Rayn." At which Han dropped his feet from the desk and leaned closer to look at him.
"Reeeeeeally?" He stood up and walked around his desk. Looking him up and down with a quizzical look. His arms folded and his right hand holding his chin and covering his mouth. Not the normal reaction he got from new recruits when they found out it was him. Rayn was highly respected in the rouge benders for his skill and fierceness in battle. He then met eyes with Han and Han said," I thought you would be bigger..." He said with a smile. His eyes lit up as he looked at Nyima.
"Then you must be Nyima! The beautiful partner who made a name for her self in less than three years. Quickly becoming a master of her style... Truly an honor. The rumors of your beauty do you no justice as I see you. I would love to spar with you sometime." He winked at her.
Rayn rolled his eyes " So now you know who we are here's the details of your mission." He then began to relate all that happened pertianant to the airbender and now the new avatar. He also said try not to hurt or kill the water benders in the group. When the time came. Or he will deal with Rayn. They also set a plan to solitify the trust in the group for Han.
He then wrote down the Address and said" now go find them and once they start moving we will move in. We will be masked during this. There is a cop in the group and her brother so we can't be seen involved. Everyone else will be wearing one as well. Got it?" He said with a gruff voice.
Han nodded and gave a mocking "YES SIR." salute and quickly grabbed a few things before rushing out of the gym. Obviously excited for the plan which during he was bouncing around at the idea of how fun it was going to be for him.
Rayn looked at Nymia. " well let's go get changed... And ready for a long trip."

She walked around the island, "You forgot something."
She tossed the ball to him and as it neared him she lessened it control allowing it to explode like a balloon on him. She laughed again and crossed her arms. At which he slowly turned towards her with narrow eyes his foot twisted and the ground below her turned sharply. At which he bolted over and grabbed her while still unbalanced and wrapped his arms around her and lifted her up with ease he then thew her on the counter with her head in the sink and quickly turned the water and allowed it to soak her head. After a minute he spun and dove over the island rolled and darted into the bathroom yelling "VICTORY"
A which he locked the door. And waited for her to try to get in. Even shoving a towel in the cracks

They finished off their meal and Rayn took both of their plates into the kitchen. She hopped to her feet and shook her head, “You clean when I cook… You helped cook, I’ll help clean. You wash, I’ll dry.”
Before he could protest she grabbed a cloth and smiled at him. She waited until he was done with the first dish and took it from him. She quickly wiped it down and put it away to save the extra step. They worked away until they were all the plates were washed. Before he could turn off the water, she ran her hand under it and splashed him with the water. She laughed a little took the last plate to dry.
He sighed as he wiped the water from his face. Damn water benders... He thought to himself. He started filling a cup that was forgotten. He knew every time before she would do this. Which was a lot. She would be ready for retaliation of some sort. But he restrained himself every time. For he waited for this moment. Where she would simply turn away unprepared. She had done it twenty times before but now was the time. He casually lifted the cup and turned the water off at the same time his movement would be confused of just leaving the kitchen. Which it was. Not before he dumped a 8 is glass of water ontop of her with he hands full so she couldn't bend. He simply walked father away. Placed the cup down turned to see her and lifted his right hand high into the air to pull it down balled into a fist near his chin saying "Yes, VVVICTORY." Smiling he turned and headed to his room. Ready now for retaliation.

Nyima smiled slightly when he made comment to her threat, "Just ensuring I don't get messed with."
She grinned when he gave in and nearly spat out the word fine. After a moment She looked at him and spoke softly, "Thank you..."
He only nodded as they continued to matsen's house.
After he asked him he could help she then said, "Fine... but we just trai-... Whatever, I've been wandering with Rayn most of the morning," she noticed the twitch at the corner of Matsen's mouth and smiled slightly, "We need you to tail that Airbender I was telling you about. The one with the blue hair that got away."
Matsen shook his head, "I'm sorry, Nyima... I have to work."
Nyima's eyebrows rose, "Mat, you work for your mom. I'm sure she'd be fine with you taking sometime off."
He shook his head, "She's gotten sick... She should be fine but... She's old and I don't want to risk anything. Besides, the shop needs to open and, without you anymore, I'm the only one to do that... Sorry... But there's that new guy, I hear he's pretty good... Um... Han."
Han.... The mix martial artist champion for the last six years. Pretty good? He's the greatest fighter in the city... He looked at Nymia as she said "I've heard of him... Do you have any idea where he might be?"
"The guy likes his muscles... I'd check the gym," Matsen said with a shrug. Nyima nodded and took Rayn's hand pulling him away from the door, "Thanks Matsen."
"Ya... Uh... See ya, Nyima!" He called after the fleeting duo. Nyima dragged Rayn through the crowd.
Surprised she was stilling doing this all the way to the gym where she finally let go of his hand. She then walked up to Han asking his name.
There he was, Han Li, the greatest fighter in the city. He raised an eyebrow as soon as he spoke.
He stopped unwrapping his wraps on his hands and looked up at Nyima. He narrows his eyes. "Northern tribe right ? I'm from the the southern water tribe." He smiled at her and winked. Rayn rolled his eyes. Great just what he figured would happen guy is a 'ladies man'.
"Northern tribe always turns out the best looking Women. Anywhere." He stood up and threw his towel over chair. " Obviously you know me, What can I do for you Miss?" He took her hand and kissed it her knuckles gently.
He looked over at Rayn and had a smirked at him. At which he folded his arms and Glared. After a moment he glanced at Nyima and said " We are here for business... Not pleasure." He moved over to them and said simply and gruff. " This is not a good idea. It'll be better for us to follow than him. They will recognize him in an instant... " he paused as he walked away. Thinking.
"You defiantly know how to make nonsense interesting. What do you want?" Han asked
"What if he joins them? Two ways of tailing someone.... Not being seen and the only one they see..." Talking to himself slightly. He looks at Nyima. "We need him to join the avatar group.... And make it look like he really is committed... We are gonna plant a mole."
He looks at Han and says." How would you like to fight 20 to 1 odds"
She grinned when he gave in and nearly spat out the word fine. After a moment She looked at him and spoke softly, "Thank you..."
He only nodded as they continued to matsen's house.

Nyima smiled and nodded her head, "Seaweed and fish... That is all I ever taste..." She looked down at the found in front of her, "No fish here...."
, "NoNyima smiled and nodded her head, "Seaweed and fish... That is all I ever taste..." She looked down at the found in front of her, "No fish here...."
She had eaten non-water tribe food before. When she was that Chan's the first night of her arrival. Although, she had hardly eaten that and wasn't exactly in the state of mind to appreciate it. Now that she was and the fact that she had been the one to make it, she felt as though there was a lot riding it. She figured the noodles were probably fine, as they were a simple recipe. She took one of the dumplings out of the broth and ate it. She contemplated the taste for a moment. She smiled, "Not seaweed, no fish." She looked at him, "So... How is it?"
He nodded as he took a bite." It's good. Just like old man chans. Your getting better. " he said as he leaned back and sighed he noted how many times she said seweed and fish... "Question is how do you like it? Seems you really like Seeweed and fish."
Once he finished he took his plates and hers and went to the kitchen." I'll take care of the dishes tonight "
He placed the dishes in the sink and turned on the water

Gippal was taken back when she slapped the potion from his hand. When Urick made the comment he glared before running off with everyone to the chamber at which he found Sena saying "It can't be...!"
He stood next to her and heard Alex say, "What in the fu--- gah!" She cupped her face with her free hand, her blue eyes glaring between her fingers.
Urick asked of she was alright and she barked"Are you crazy or a idiot?!" Obviously at Sena.
"Sena ... What you looking for? " he looked at the fayth. He wonders what's up with this girl. The way she speaks the way she acts... He looked at everyone, "we should get going... I'm sure This is gunna be a huge deal when we get up..."
He heard some yelling as a blonde hair girl walked in. She apparently followers them. He sighed he lowered his head. " Sorry miss. We just got caught up in getting her..." He scratched the back of his head. How come he always had to be the diplomat. Something he always got stuck doing making sure everyone is happy

Zhou looked at the airbender as she snickered a little when he suggested they walk. She covered up her mouth quickly and gave him a small bow, "Excuse my laughter but... I don't think we can walk around the world having him learn bending... It would take far more time... And some air temples aren't places you wish to walk to... The hideout and places you can't really walk to..."
He said in a cold voice that matched his nation. "It was partially a joke. Obviously we can't walk around the entire world. " He stared her in the eye for a moment before becoming Silent. This is why he was serious all the time.
She then said to Masuto, "I... I can go to the island," she cleared her throat, "See if there is an Air Bison.... My own was there.... She tends to go off at times I'm not there..... She... might have avoided the attack," she took a deep breath, calming herself, "I should find out for sure before I leave anyways...."
As she said that Masuto and Mizuki asked or offered to come with her. He just folded his arms and remained silent. His mind turning to his younger sister.
~~~~~~~~
Nyima looked at him and shrugged, "The Water Tribe likes to think the world is still strictly, Water, Fire, Earth... and I guess, Air. They don't prepare to fight too many waterbenders. And my brother can't help but have an admiration for waterbenders, I'm sure."
He looked at her and thought, "still doesn't mean he didn't train to fight water Benders... He would train so he would know incase there was a rebellion... All soldiers did in every nation."
She moved off the wall and followed him. She clapped their hands together as they walked, he looked down at her hands holding his... For one who just said their just friends and nothings there...(basically) she sure warmed up to the act of boyfriend and girlfriend.
"One thing about Matsen.... He may or may not have been hitting on me again.... And I may or may not have accidently said that you and I may or may not be more than just friends.... It's been three years and I was getting really sick of it and he is... well... To put it bluntly, afraid of you," she scratched the back of her head, as he rolled his eyes. Women... Always making things difficult. "It worked... if that means anything..." she looked up at him and gave him a shy smile, "Oops?"
"Oops" he said as he looked forward. He remained silent for a bit before she continued
She sighed and dropped her hand, "Would mind keeping up the act?... I'm sure you are getting... a little sick of it. With earlier and the day before but it would really help me keep him off my back," she pleaded to him with her eyes, holding her hands together tightly, "Please?"She watched him a moment before adding, "And if you 'break up' with me in front of him to screw with me... I will cook you and eat you as a stew."
"Oh that's a good incentive to get me to help you. " ignoring her pleading eyes by not looking over at her. Despite the awkwardness earlier she still is willing to keep this up. But he couldn't say no... She asked for help.... He was going to. " fine " he said simple before turning down the street towards matsens place.
Once there he knocked on the door and he answered. He first saw Nyima but was surprised when he saw Rayn next to her. "Um.... H..hey how's it going? What can I do for you guys?" As he looked between them; mostly at Nyima.
"We need you to tail someone for us. Right away." He said bluntly. At which Matsen said "can't I have work I need to go to in a hour." As he looked at Nyima again." How you been doing Nyima? Been a while since I we met.
Rayn sighed he could totally see he was crushing on Nyima, but he felt that he didn't want to initiate the story but have Nyima try using the 'cover story first. Giving her a hard time with out actually " DOING" anything.
He said in a cold voice that matched his nation. "It was partially a joke. Obviously we can't walk around the entire world. " He stared her in the eye for a moment before becoming Silent. This is why he was serious all the time.
