Kakia yawned and stood pushed back the covers. "mmmmm...sunshine." Kakia strecthed and stood up, shivering at how cold the ground was. She slipped into her fuzzy slipplers and followed the smells of delicious foods. "Good morning mom." Kakia smiled and ate a quick breakfast. She thanked her mother then washed her face and put her hair up. "I'm going out mom!" Kakia called as she ran out the door. "No trouble young lady! Do you hear me! I'm not going to put up with another Ki-" Kakia whipped around and stared at her mother, "Kija was a great friend, I miss her a lot, don't ever talk bad about her!" Kakia ran away quickly and heard her mother shouting in the distance, she didn't care, she had ruined a perfectly good morning. She would probably send Kensu after her when she didn't come home, but she'd be gone by then. Kakia slowed down to a walk and stopped to watch a Master training young waterbenders. Kakia had only finished training a year ago, Kija had finished at age 12. "Stop it Kakai!" Kakia slapped herself, "I have got to stop this." She turned and kept walking, and went over the plan in her head. At midnight she'd sneak over to the wall-gate thing and hide, the group of waterbenders were leaving early to go back to the Southern Tribe. She would hide on their boat, of course they'd notice her, but by that time they'd be halfway there, adn no time to turn back. Kakia smiled and thought how proud Kija would be of her now, sneaking away. Then she started to cry, if she left her family would never talk to her, they had already found someone for her to marry! It was a long family tradition and culture that Kakia would be breaking, but she had to do this. She had to find Kija, she had a sister in the Southern Water tribe, if she disappered anywhere, it'd be there. Kakia put a smile on her face and slowly walked to the marketplace in a much better mood.

((Oh, thanks. yea having someone to rp with would be nice, but it's okay if i'm alone....))
Kakia bought enough food to last her journey. She walked around eating a fish. "I'm really gonna miss this place she said quietly to herself. Kakia gazed around, memorizing every detail, so she'd never forget it. A quiet wind blew suddenly making her hair get into her eyes. AS she pushed her hair out of her face she glanced at her wrist. "My bracelet!" Kakia couldn't leave without it, she had been given it at birth, and all the females in her family had one. She walked quickly to her house, "How am i going to get in without my mother noticing, if she sees me she'll make me stay and miss the boat!" Kakia glance around nervously, she shouldn't be doing this but, what the heck! Their house was made out of ice, so when she found her bedroom window she melted the ice, which created a door. Kakia ran in quickly and rummaged around till she found her bracelet. "Perfect!" she said to herself as she clapsed it around her wrist. "oh my goodness! What have you done!" Kakia turned and saw her mother staring at the giant hole Kakia had created. "I can explain! I-" her mother cut her off, "I told you, no trouble and this is what you do! You could have hurt someone! I thought you understood, no waterbending!!!!!" Kakia saw tears in her mother's eyes, "But mom, how can you ask me not to waterbend!" Her mother sighed and turned, "Fix the hole, then leave, and don't come back." Kakia started to cry, she knew now she could leave without a worry, but now there was no chance she could come back.

Tenzin tightened his hold on the blue fur coat as he hurried to the boat that would take him away from this frozen land. he pulled the hood up over his shaved head, covering up his airbender tattoos. He was in sight of the docks when he saw a native girl hurring along crying. He couldn't help himself. He walked up next to her.
"Excuse me, are you okay?", he asked tentativly.

Kakia turned suddenly and saw a strange looking boy, "What? Oh yea i'm fine." Kakia wipped the tears from her eyes. She saw the docks and wanted deperetly to run to them but stayed to talk to the boy. "I'm Kakia, who are you? ANd what are you doing here so late at night?" A soft breeze made her hair flutter, she grabbed it and twisted it back, "Well i guess it's actually early moring but...."

((OOC: nice pic, d'you make it?))
"Kakia, that's a pretty name...I'm Tenzin, and I'm attempting to get on that boat bound for the earth kingdom,". He found himself looking at her hair fluttering in the wind. He guessed he liked it because he shaves his head regularly.
"Where are you off to in such a rush?"

"Thank you. Nice to meet you Tenzin." Kakia replied. "Earth Kingdom huh? I'm going to the Southern Water Tribe, and i have to hurry!" Kakia glannced over at the boat, she bit her lip nervously, i hope i don't miss it, she thought to herself.

Tenzin saw the apprehension written all over her face.
"Well, the ships stops at the earth kingdom on its way..." he began. A tribesman on the boat was castin off ropes in preparation to leave. "Hurry! Or we'll miss it!" He grabbed her by the hand and ran to the boat, running up the ramp just in time.
"PHEW!" he exhaled, "Made it..."

"Yea, but just barely." Kakia rubbed her hand, she walked to the edge ot the boat and gazed at the water. She took a deep breath, kija, i'm gonna find you, she thought to herself. Kakia looked around the boat, she couldn't believe she was leaving! "So, Tenzin, why are ya going to the EartH Kingdom?"

Kakia laughed, "No, the cold doesn't bother me, just feel like a change of scenery i guess." Kaika looked at her feet, "plus it's not like i have a choice...." she added under her breath.

Tenzin, shuffled some more to get his blood circulating. "You really want to just see ocean the whole way there? Thats all the way on the other side of the planet..." He paused looking up expantantly, "if you're just going to the other pole to be with members of the water tribe, there are plenty of water tribe villages along the Earth Kingdom coasts, I hear that there is even one in a giant swamp!"

Kakia sighed, how could she explain this? She sat down on the floor of the boat, "I'm not just going to the South Pole to be with other water tribe members. It's something esle too." Kakia noticed Tenzin moving around, "You're not used to the cold are you?" She actually thought it was sort of warm out.
