Tera: on a different note, the existence of an Ozana PPG Icon makes you eligible for inclusion in the Fight Club series. ~Mai~

Ozana: hmm. Let me think about that for a while.... .. ..
Alright I suppose. I was opposed to it before, but bring it on.

That night was a long and painful night. Even when I could move I didn’t want to, for the immobilizing strikes Ty Lee gave made my muscles sore when I could feel them again. I still remembered the pressure training my oh so dear mother put me through. It helped a little, but not a lot in this case. Teroh, on the other hand, basically leapt up when he gained back feeling, though he gained it slower then I did. But every time he tried to get up he was sent down again, faster then anyone could say ‘look out‘. “Poor guy,” I thought as he was sent down for at least the 5th time that night, he was merely a victim of circumstance, but then again, who in this wagon wasn’t? I looked over at Ty Lee thinking that if I wasn’t gagged, I could probably talk myself out of this mess. Heck, a monkey could with her, but that’s why my mother had gagged me. My mother was smarter then most people would admit, only because she struck the fear of Agni into anyone who stood between her and what she wanted. I couldn’t help but admire her, even if she was taking me prisoner, and back to an the hated prison I had worked hard to escape from, and would probably not break out of again. Something seemed to fishy about me breaking out the first time. Maybe my mother did indeed love me and capturing me was her way of hugging me. No that’s stupid Ozana. Stop being so irrational. When we arrived at New Azula, Formerly know as Ba sin se, and often referred to by the fire nation soldiers who guard it, Na Sin Se, it looked to be around Midday, though considering I couldn’t see the sun, I wouldn’t have an accurate reading. We were brutally thrown out and again hit by Ty Lee, who, unlike my mother, actually looked sorry for what she was doing to us. Then we were taken in front of the huge crowd of people who called New Azula their home. We were taken to a platform small enough so that any citizen who wanted to jump on it and had a working hand and leg could probably make it up…and across with 5 jumps. Two guards were making sure I didn’t move. Three were on Teroh. If I had been able to move my head I would have shaken in at the small minded person who decided they should have more on a simple earthbender, then they would have on the Avatar. I regretted it as soon as I thought it when 4 more guards appeared make sure I didn‘t move, If not to make sure I was properly ridiculed. I guess my mother had resolved the problem I thought with quiet adoration. I stared at the ground, the only place I could stare, as my mother gave her speech. I noticed that the soldiers who were holding me up were Dai Li. I could only guess that Teroh was being stripped of his rank, and possibly given a death sentence. I frowned slightly as my eyes looked onto the people, they were all in uproar. I read, clumsily, one of their lips. “NO, NO !!THEY CAN’T STRIP HIM OF HIS RANK! YOU CAN‘T DO THAT!” I guessed it right. Ha! And I recognized the lady from somewhere, but it didn‘t feel like I had just seen her face as I passed by on the streets. I had met her personally before. She looked distraught, and like she was about to hop on stage. Agni knows that it was small enough, and if she didn’t watch herself, she was probably going the same place Teroh was going. After what seemed an eternity, I was finally taken from ridicule on a stage to an area slightly south of there. They held my head up, I could feel them laughing as they did, and showed me this thick black box. The box could not have been any bigger then the average super crate, which compared to the last cage we were in, it was a matchbox. Pretty much it looked to be 5 feet across 4 feet wide and 6 feet tall. A so a wooden box with syrup all over it. And there was only one of them. What the? Am I traveling with Teroh? We were not going to fit comfortably in it. Unless…Teroh was being killed right there. I gulped just as they threw me in. It felt so horrible that I could almost imagine the sound it made when I was thrown in it. I would imagine it would be a wet sound like when you squish a goo that has air trapped inside of it and a tearing sound like you were tearing the finest oldest piece of scroll, like the ones with the oldest fire nation information in the Firelord’s personal library, under lock and key. And a small yelp of mine followed by a muffled ‘eeeww!!’ as I sunk down a couple inches, and was stuck. I was thankful I landed on my back or I probably would have died. Almost immediately after I was thrown in, Teroh landed on top of me and kinda got stuck there. And we barely fit like that. “umff” I grunted as the back of his head hit the front of mine. Ow, I hope he didn’t break my nose. He had to be at least 50 pounds heavier then me. Not that it mattered a lot there, I wouldn’t feel a lot of pain until my muscles woke up. An hour later I felt immense pain and without hesitation tried to push him off of me. My arms and legs were stuck and it took tremendous effort and a hell of a lot of pain tolerance to get them out of the goo. I made a mental note to kick whoever’s made this’s 4ss. And then put it all over <I>them</I> and se how they like it. After I had finally gotten them free I kicked Teroh off of me. This didn’t work the way I wanted as he just hit the ceiling and came back and hit me harder. I think at that point we both groaned and I fell back into the stuff. I laid there for a while, trying to get rid of the pain of a 6 foot 5 earth bender landing on me and get ready for the pain of ripping my hands out of the syrup. I ripped them out and was still surprised at the pain. I gave out a muffled yelp, but managed to keep them from sinking back in. The pain I felt now was the worst pain I had ever felt, aside from when I had been in the Agni Kai with my mother. I focused more on the task at hand and slowly eased him off of me to the other side of the ‘cage’. He sank down into the goo to and he looked terrified and confused and disgusted all at the same time. I took a second to laugh at him. He looked over at me all he could(without ripping to much skin off) and probably tried to say something, but I didn’t know what he said because he was gagged too. I pulled the cloth on my mouth off all I could and managed to get it over my head on my hair, but not completely off, since my hair was stuck to the floor by the goo. I kept laughing until I decided it was time for me to think about getting out of the cage. I tried to sit up, forgetting where I was until I felt the pain of my head being pulled painfully back down. “AHH” I yelled. I tried to think of a sensible solution. I know! I’ll firebend my way out. I hated up my hands and pushed them into the goo, only for them to get stuck and the fire go out. I pulled them painfully out again to see that I had burned the. “Dammit” I yelled. I would have to manually pull myself out of it, great.
Many hours and a lot of painful experiences later, the top half of my body was out of the goo and so was Teroh‘s. We turned to talk to each other. I lit up a finger by his mouth so I could see. He looked a little scared at me when I placed it be his mouth, like I was about to cut his throat off. Ch, stupid guy. “It’s wooden” He said then he looked at my finger. “We could burn it” “No,” I said, “This stuff isn’t Flamable” I said rudely and pointing at the goo. “Hmm” He said as he thought of what to do. “Can you waterbend it?” He asked. “No.” I answered. “and look” I said showing him the inside of my arm. “This stuff burns you if it’s on for to long.” “Yeah, I was noticing that myself.” He said thoughtlessly showing me his Arm. “Ozana, do you have any idea how to get out of this stuff?” He asked, his face in tense confusion and worry . I shook my head in despair. It seemed the only strategy right now was to wait until we were freed by our captors. I hoped we could figure something out by then, for if not, we were going to have to fight our way out, and that would not end well for sure.

Ozana: here. It was around dusk, when the bird’s songs came to a close and they nestled their heads into their tiered wings and sleep. All animals that fought for their life in the day rested, though nervously, as they had done since birth, and until death which for some of them would be closer then expected. Sanaki was still playing happily with Aang and Kisha, like a little girl and her favorite toy, laughing often whether it be from one of Kisha’s wet licks to something the carefree Aang did. Katara was sitting around the fire, as if she had done this for the past 10 years, casually talking and joking about her past experiences with Sokka, who had his hand leisurely resting on Toph’s shoulders, and Toph, who in response to Sokka had, smiling hugely, scooted way closer to him then she would any other person. Kojiro was sitting quietly in the back listening intently and laughing at necessary times. The moon was almost at it’s highest when Sokka decided to break the interesting conversation they were having to ask “Hey Katara? Have you seen Ozana?” He cared more about his daughter then he would let on, and felt bad for all the time he had been absent in her life, even if it wasn’t his fault. Katara’s face darkened into a slight frown. She often thought Ozana nothing of what the avatar should be, and saw the potential evil lurking inside of her, biding it’s time, until it could mimic Azula’s. “No, actually, I haven’t seen her since she left to take a bath.” Sokka’s face deepened into a frown. Sanaki and Aang had stopped playing with their oblivious companion. She cocked her head in the direction where the 4 adults were talking. Aang walked over to them.
“Does anyone know where Teroh went?” Sanaki asked more curious then worried. “I haven’t seen him in while either. not since he said he was going to look for some food” Katara bit her lower lip in a small panic. Though she liked Teroh’s company more then she liked Ozana’s, She had forgotten he wasn‘t there, as he rarely talked in large conversations such as this. “I have no clue” she finally answered.
Sanaki sat in thought. Teroh had been cool to hang out with, she hopped he hadn’t done anything to stupid. She would kill him. Maybe he had gone off into the woods and gotten temporarily lost. That’s what she hoped at least, but she knew it was not likely. He was probably hurt or worse. She decided to voice her thoughts. “He’s probably hurt, we should look for him.”
“Aren’t we talking about Ozana?” Sokka asked, his brow furrowing slightly as the conversation obviously was going to fast for him to follow. “No, We’re talking about Teroh now” Toph answered before Katara could get to it. It had been just as rude, but she decided it would be better her then Katara. At the moment she was smacking her foot into the ground to see what she could find. There was a metal wagon evacuating the area fairly quickly with one person walking on the side of it. ‘hmm, that can’t be them, Teroh could bend metal’ she thought, ‘or could he? Maybe, let’s see what the others have to say about it. “Hey guys, I feel a wagon a little away from here. It’s made of metal.” She said seriously. “That’s not uncommon” Sanaki said, “And besides, Teroh could bend Metal” “We’ve gotta try it.” Sokka said. “It could be them, we have to see” “Hold it, hold it” Katara said, “We don’t even know if their captured, they could be lost for all we know” She meant to say it optimistically, but it sounded desperate, even to her. Kojiro stood up and walked into Teroh’s Tent. The first real action she had done all day. She picked up a small piece of Teroh’s clothing and took a long sniff. A smile came to her face as she caught his sent. She left the tent, “Follow me” She said and waited at the edge of the woods as Aang was instructed to watch Kisha. The dragon would only slow the prodution down, and with the trail she had, they needed to hurry. She started on the trail, smiling all the while, because she knew she was going to find them. And she would do it promptly.

it took me a while to say something to describe it, although I wasn't really happy with that, I decided it was probably the best thing my young brain could come up with.
OMG!! THANKS!! THAT'S PWNAGE!! THANKYOU SO MUCH!

Okay, shorter chapter. Here,
That night we didn’t sleep at all for fear of getting stuck into the syrup, that we found started to smell after you applied fire. It was funny, it didn’t burn, but it sure smelled like burned poo when it got hot. We had also discovered that night about holes in each of the corners. These holes were strictly for ventilation and were barely big enough for a rat, but it was a start for an escape plan. Or so I thought. My brain began calculating how much our chances were if we were to put the slop through the hole and be able to burn the crate down. Slim to none. Actually, it was a bigger risk then I was personally willing to take. Who knew what worse thing we would be subjected to if My mother found we were feeding the goo through the holes. Maybe she might plug them up and leave us to die, or worse, we would plug them up and fuel our own deaths. No. I decided, I’m not going to do it or tell Teroh. It was hopeless. Over. We were going to get captured, and I was going to rot in a jail. Teroh on the other hand wouldn’t be as unfortunate as me, and probably be killed. I sat and thought about other escape plans. But I couldn’t give up. I kept thinking about it, and the longer I thought, the more elaborate and desperate the plans got. Failure. I thought. I’m a failure. My mother would know what to do in this situation. Or maybe she wouldn’t. Maybe she had tested it out on herself just to make sure it was smart enough, and gross enough to mention it, for her stupid little daughter and her stupid little friend. I sighed and right at that moment Teroh’s face changed from concentration to down right scared. Did my sighs really scare him that much? His eyes began darting around the box until they rested on one spot. The wall directly behind him. Suddenly the fire went out on my finger and I felt a lifting sensation. I was thrust down with the weight of the world on my shoulders. Stuck again. Ugh, it felt even worse this time. eew... And suddenly instead of the graceful flying, I was spinning at a nauseating speed that not even the greatest pin-wheel would hold up to. And our box wasn’t doing so well either. It was crumpling up and splintering. The roof flew off and I looked into the most terrorizing and coolest thing I had ever seen in my life. I saw the inside of a Tornado. It had clouds black as coal in the darkest pit of the earth, with massive amounts of lightning, all different colors shapes and sizes, jutting out at odd angles. My eyes widened with every lighting strike I saw as I was more and more impressed at the only thing on the planet that could beat my mother at a lightning match. A wicked smile came to my face. I wanted to harness the power as my own. I started squirming around so as to get free of the binds that held me. I looked down just as I got my hand free to look up again at the dizzying wurr of all the elements combined in time to see lightning come 2 feet from my face and break apart the whole cage! (needles to say, I decided I wasn’t worthy of the power) We were free of one terror, but on to a more frightening one. I grabbed Teroh’s hands to stay with him as we flew around in the tornado. I signaled to him to hold tight as I tried to ignite fire to propel us forward and out. I shot out hard, because I thought the oxygen was lacking in the air. Big mistake. Tornado was a vacuum. All the oxygen had been sucked into it, and now we were flipping endlessly through the air out of the tornado, thank Agni, onto real air. I let out a terrorizing scream as we flipped over trees. Luckily Teroh thought fast and earthbent the rock beneath us to catch us before we hot the ground. It was a hard hit, but not as hard as the real thing would have been, and certainly less dangerous. I looked around confused. I was in a tornado a minute ago, a hopeless box an hour ago, around a campfire a week ago, and safe in my own palace a year ago. When Anzon was still alive. It finally hit me. Everything that had happened so far so much for a year, not even a year, more like 8 months. I retched and whatever was left in my stomach wasn‘t anymore. Teroh was towering over me looking a little dizzy, but he kneeled down and held my wild hair out of place. I began to sob. It was the first time in a while, but none the less, it needed to be done. Teroh had a look of sympathy, compassion, and confusion all mixed on his face. We sat there for Agni knows how long, me sobbing and him just being there. And that was strangely a happy moment, because I realized I had a true friend next to me. The second one in my life, actualy, pretty much the second friend period, in my life and I was grateful.
