Unity (ATLA boys x reader) Chapter 3
returA/N hey guys!! sorry it took so long to get chapter 3! I literally could not find a plot for this chapter, so i decided to skip the desert. 
Chapter 2|Chapter 3
Word count: 3210 words
Tumblr media
Chapter 3
The Desert (i am aware that i skipped a lot of episodes I just don’t want it to bee too long)
Traveling with the GAang was interesting. To kill time Aang told Y/N stories of how King Bumi was like as a kid. Y/N was extremely fascinated by these anecdotes, and amazed by how everyone could travel freely throughout the four nations 100 years ago. She wanted to participate in the story-telling too, so she told Aang some of the stories her mother had told her about her travels, and this shocked Aang as well. Soon the two realized that a century ago traveling rules were less strict than they were twenty years ago. 
Everyone in the group was quite fond of Y/N. Katara was grateful to have another girl in the group so she would have someone to rant to whenever Sokka did something disgusting. Aang was grateful to have someone help him locate his next destination, as Sokka and Katara had never been outside of the south pole. And Sokka was grateful that there was someone who would listen to his jokes or agree with his crazy ideas. 
Sokka would be lying if he denied the fact that he was feeling some sort of connection to Y/N. He always wanted to be around her for some reason, and every little thing she did would be engraved in his mind. If Y/N played with her h/c locks, Sokka would save that and think about it when he had nothing else to think about. If Y/N laughed at one of his jokes, he would automatically analyze said joke, and try to make more jokes like that one. If Y/N gave him a compliment on something of his or suggested he do something, he would think about that constantly and change whatever Y/N suggested.
I could say that Y/N felt the same about him, but I would be lying, and fRiEnDs DoN’t LiE. Y/N couldn’t stop thinking about Zuko, and wondering how he was doing. She may have not felt any romantic feelings for him, but that doesn't mean she couldn’t think about her friend. 
Weeks had passed and the GAang had a new member, an earthbender named Toph. Y/N and Toph had hit it right away, their personalities instantly clicking. And the similarities in the ways they were treated when they were younger made them closer, if anything. Toph was treated as a helpless, blind, little girl even though she was an extremely talented earth bender. Y/N’s parents treated her well, but Azula made her feel useless since she had no bending. And after Y/N’s mother died, Y/N’s father had neglected and emotionally abused her. So yeah, the two girls had been through a lot. 
As of right now, the 5 teens were walking through the desert, without Appa because he had been taken by sandbenders for money. As usual, Y/N tuned out of the conversation (more like an argument) that was between Toph and Aang about how Toph let Appa go away. 
“I’m going after Appa,” Aang shouted in a harsh tone. He then flew off with his glider.
“Aang! Wait!” Katara shouted, running to the spot where he took off from. Y/N walked over to KAtara and placed a hand on her shoulder to comfort her.
“We'd better start walking,” Y/N started. “We're the only people who know about the solar eclipse. We have to get that information to Ba Sing Se.” The teens, minus Aang, then started to walk towards the same direction Aang flew off in. 
“You think if we dig out the giant owl, he'll give us a ride?” Sokka questioned. Y/N laughed and punched his shoulder playfully.
-
Sokka, Katara, Toph and Y/N had been walking in the desert for at least an hour now. The sun was scorching hot, and much to Sokka’s delight, Y/N had taken off the top layer of her outfit, leaving her in a tank top that showed off her smooth, s/c, arms. Annoyed by the sun, Y/N took Momo off of Sokka’s back and used his wings to create some shade. Sokka, obviously annoyed because he could’ve done the same, was about to protest when he crashed into Toph. 
“Hey! Can’t you watch where you’re-” Sokka stopped his sentence after realizing what he’d said.
“No.” Toph hissed.
“Right. Sorry!” Sokka replied bashfully. Katara turned around to face the rest of the group.
“Come on guys, we’ve got to stick together!” Katara announced. During the short time Katara spoke, Sokka had accidentally stuck his clothes to Y/N, and was trying to free himself by pushing her away. Luckily for him, Y/N was trying her hardest to help him out too. 
“If Sokka sweats anymore, I don’t think it will be a problem!” Y/N shouted, struggling to get the boy off of her. Toph, who was even more annoyed, pushed Sokka to the ground, separating the two at last. 
“Katara, can I have some water?” Toph asked politely.
“Okay, but we’ve got to try to conserve it.” Katara bended four blobs of water out of her pouch into the mouths of Sokka, Toph, and Momo. When she noticed Y/N wasn’t accepting it, she asked, “Y/N? Don’t you want any?”
Y/N replied with, “I’m fine. Really.” 
“Y/N! You have to drink some! If not you’ll pass out because of dehydration!” Sokka shouted.
“Okay, dad!” Y/N groaned. She accepted the blob of water Katara had bended her way. 
Smacking his lips, Sokka said, “We're drinking your bending water. You used this on the swamp guy! Urch!” Y/N started to laugh, but ended up coughing after registering the taste of the water. Worried, Sokka patted her on the back repeatedly until she wasn’t coughing anymore. 
“It does taste swampy.” Toph giggled. Momo whined at the taste.
“I’m sorry, it’s all we have.” Katara mumbled bashfully.
“Not anymore!” Sokka shouted. “Look!” He walked over to a random cactus plant that was in their path. He cut off a piece and drank the liquid inside.
“Sokka, wait! You shouldn’t be eating strange plants!” Katara shouted with worry, running over to him. Curious, Y/N joined the two siblings. 
“There’s water trapped inside these!” Sokka shouted. He offered some to Y/N, and she took a tiny sip. She instantly felt lighter.
“I don’t know…” Katara started.
“It’s thirst quenching though! If that helps!” Y/N proclaimed. A little juice dribbled onto her chin and Sokka wiped it off. Blushing, Y/N punched Sokka again. He paid no attention to the punch as some sort of trance overtook him.
“Drink cactus juice. It'll quench ya! Nothing's quenchier. It's the quenchiest!” Katara grabbed his drink and poured it away.
“Okay, I think you’ve had enough.” Katara laughed. “Y/N, will you watch him?”
“Sure!” Y/N answered, still laughing. She grabbed Sokka and lockerd their arms together so he wouldn’t get away.
“Hey pretty lady!” Sokka shouted, dragging out the ‘y’ in ‘hey’. “Are we married?”
Still laughing, Y/N replied with, “Sure. We live in Omashu, and we adopted three turtle ducks. One’s named Toph, one’s named Katara, and the last one is named Aang. Sounds nice, right?”
“Anything’s nice as long as I’m with you!” Sokka sang out with a lovestruck expression on his face. He leaned towards Y/N for a kiss, but she only shoved his head away from hers. “Who lit Toph on fire?”
-
“I'm sorry, Aang. I know it's hard for you right now but ... we need to focus on getting out of here.” Aang had recently joined the group again and Katara was trying her best to comfort the airbender. 
“What's the difference? We won't survive without Appa. We all know it.” This surprised Y/N. In the short time she had known the Avatar, he was always positive, no matter the situation. 
“Aang. If we work together, we can find Appa. Stay positive! Right Toph? Katara?” Y/N looked to the girls for affirmation.
“As far as I can feel, we're trapped in a giant bowl of sand pudding. I got nothin'.” Toph sighed. Frustrated, Y/N turned to her last resort.
“Sokka? Care to share any knowledge as to how we could reach Ba Sing Se?” Y/N was standing next to Sokka’s body, which was lying on the sand with Momo right next to him.
“Why don't we ask the circle birds?” Sokka responded nonchalantly. Groaning, Y/N looked at the sky, only to see four buzzard wasps circling above their heads. Katara grabbed her head in annoyance. 
“Ugh ... We're getting out of this desert, and we're going to do it together! Aang, get up. Everybody, hold hands. We can do this. We have to.” Katara grabbed Aang’s hand and Aang grabbed Toph’s. Katara used her other hand to grab Y/N’s and Y/N used all her strength to tug Sokka from the ground. Sokka stood up and placed Momo on his back. 
-
Y/N was sleeping peacefully next to Sokka when she was abruptly woken up by Katara shouting, “Come on, get up! We need to go.” Groaning, Toph, Y/N and Sokka all rose up from the place they decided to rest. 
“Yesterday my mouth tasted like mud. Now it just tastes like sand. I never thought I'd miss the taste of mud so much.” Y/N was going to laugh but she started coughing again, much like last time when Toph had registered the taste of the water. Sokka instinctively patted her back repeatedly while Katara went to wake up Aang.
“I’m awake,” Aang stated. “I couldn’t sleep.” 
Nodding, Katara responded to the boy with, “Well, we need to get moving if we want to get out of this sand pit.” Aang quickly sat up as he noticed a sky-bison like silhouette floating by the moon.
“Appa!” Aang shouted, trying to get it’s attention.
“Appa‌? But why would Princess Yue need him‌? She's the moon! She flies by herself!” Sokka questioned as he grabbed Y/N’s hand, using it to rub his cheek. Y/N smacked him on the head, obviously weirded out. 
“It's just a cloud.” Katara stated sadly, referring to the sky-bison-like object in the sky. “Wait! A cloud! Aang, fly up and bend the water from that cloud into my pouch.” Aang scoffed, obviously annoyed and agitated, but did as the girl said. When he landed on the ground, he threw Katara’s pouch at her. She looked in, only to be disappointed.
“Wow ... there's hardly any in here.” Aang sighed loudly.
“I'm sorry, okay! It's a desert cloud; I did all I could! What's anyone else doing?! What are you doing‌?!” Katara and Y/N were shocked. Aang had never acted like this before. Katara shook her head.
“Trying to keep everyone together. Let's just get moving. We need to head this direction.” The group walked towards the direction Katara had set them up in silence until Toph tripped and fell on her face. Worried, Y/N let go of Sokka and Katara’s hands to check up on the earthbender.
“Ow! Crud! I am so sick of not feeling where I'm going!” Toph shouted, pointing to the rock-like object she tripped on. “And what idiot buried a boat in the middle of the desert‌?”
“A boat?” Y/N asked. Katara ran over to observe the object.
“Believe me, I kicked it hard enough to feel plenty of vibrations.” By now Sokka and Aang had joined the three girls to observe the object. Aang motioned everyone to step back, and used his airbending to get rid of the sand, revealing a boat like contraption.
“It’s a glider! Like the one sandbenders use!” Y/N exclaimed. Sokka clapped his hand onto her back. 
“Look!” Katara shouted. “It's got some kind of compass on it! I bet it can point us out of here! Aang, you can bend a breeze so we can sail it. We're going to make it!”
-
The five teens had squeezed onto the glider, with Katara navigating and Aang driving it using his airbending.
“The needle on this compass doesn't seem to be pointing north according to my charts.” Katara had stated. Y/N was going to sit next to Katara to help her out, but decided not to. Sokka placed himself right next to Y/N, and grabbed her hand. 
“Take it easy little lady. I'm sure the sand folks who built this baby know how to get around here.” Y/N was obviously weirded out, but let Sokka do his thing. She didn’t want to make him angry, because in his current state, it would result in him doing something extremely annoying. 
Katara gasped. “That's what the compass is pointing to! That giant rock! It must be the magnetic center of the desert.” Y/N turned around to look at the rock that Katara was pointing to. 
Obviously ecstatic, Toph shouted, “ A rock‌?! Yes! Let's go!” Y/N just giggled.
“Maybe we can find some water there!” Katara exclaimed with a hopeful tone in her voice.
“Maybe we can find some sandbenders.” Aang snapped. He guided the glider towards the rock. 
-
“Ahhh ... Finally! Solid ground!” Toph cheered as she laid on the rock, creating a rock angel with her bending. When she was finished creating the angel, she stood up and joined the rest of the group, who were exploring a cave with a gooey substance. 
“I think my head is starting to clear out the cactus juice. And look!” Sokka shouted as he dipped his hand in the mysterious substance, earning a groan from Y/N. He licked the substance and offered some to Y/N, who kicked him in the leg in response. 
“You've been hallucinating on cactus juice all day and then you just lick something you find stuck to the wall of a cave‌?!” Y/N ranted. “Spirits, you really are dense.” Frowning, Sokka wiped the goo off his hands and placed a hand on Y/N’s shoulder. He whispered, “Sorry.” Y/N just nodded in response.
“I don't think this is a normal cave.” Toph stated. “This was carved by something.” 
“Yeah,” Aang agreed. “Look at the shape.”
“There's something buzzing in here. Something that's coming for us!” Toph shouted. The group ran out of the cave. Toph, Aang, and Y/N screamed as a buzzard wasp emerged from the darkness of the cave. Y/N pulled down Aang and Toph as it flew over their heads. 
Another buzzard flew between Toph and Sokka. Toph used her earth bending to launch a rock in the direction of the buzzard, and the rock nearly crushed Sokka.
“What are you doing? That rock almost crushed me!” Sokka shouted. 
“Sorry! I can’t tell where they are in the air!” Toph replied. Another wasp flew in between Sokka and Y/N. Y/N was going to hit it with one of her many throwing knives but Sokka lightly shoved her out of the way. 
“I got this one!” Sokka told her. Y/N was annoyed, but realized that there wasn’t a wasp and Sokka was still hallucinating. Figuring that it would be funny to watch him smack his machete at nothing, she moved out of the way. Sokka then swung his machete at nothing, and Y/N giggled. 
“Sokka, there’s nothing there!” Katara shouted, obviously fed up with him.
“I guess my head’s not as clear as I thought.” Sokka muttered. Y/N grabbed his arm and dragged him down to her level. 
“We have to get out of here!” Katara shouted. “I’m completely out of water to bend!” Y/N nodded, about to move with Sokka trailing behind her, when a buzzard grabbed Momo.
“Momo! I’m not losing anyone else out here!” Aang shrieked. Full of anger, he took off on his glider in hot pursuit of Momo and the wasp.
“Come on, we’re going down.” Katara told the others. Katara held Toph by the hand as they made their way down a narrow ledge. Y/N was about to make her way to the others by herself when Sokka grabbed her hand.
“Hey! You- you shouldn’t go down alone!” Sokka exclaimed. Annoyed, Y/N traversed the wall and landed on the ground with a backflip, while smiling up at Sokka. 
-
“What are you doing in our land with a sandbender sailer? ‌ From the looks of it, you stole it from the Hami tribe.” A sandbender named Sha-Mo asked Katara.
“We found the glider abandoned in the desert. We're traveling with the Avatar. Our bison was stolen and we have to get to Ba Sing Se.” Katara stated. The man’s eyes widened when he learned that Aang was the Avatar. 
“You dare accuse our people of theft while you ride in on a stolen sand sailer‌?!” Another man stated. Toph’s eyes narrowed when she heard the man speak, and Y/N frowned. 
“Quiet, Ghashiun. No one accused our people of anything. If what they say is true, we must give them hospitality.” Sha-Mo stated. 
“Sorry, father.” Ghashiun replied.
“I recognize the son's voice. He's the one that stole Appa.” Toph cautioned. Y/N’s eyes widened, and she looked at Sokka, who looked equally as confused and surprised. 
“Are you sure?” Katara asked. 
“I never forget a voice.” Toph answered. 
Aang charged forwards toward Ghashiun. “You stole Appa! Where is he? ‌What did you do to him?”
“They're lying! They're the thieves!” Ghashiun defended himself. Aang, obviously agitated, he smacked his staff on the ground, and one of the gliders flew off due to his airbending. “Where. Is. My. Bison! You tell me where he is now!”
“What did you do?” Sha-Mo asked Ghashiun.
“I-it wasn’t me!” Ghashiun tried to defend himself.
“You said to put a muzzle on him!” Toph shouted! 
“You muzzled Appa‌?” At this point, Aang was enraged. Sokka, Katara, and Y/N all looked to each other, with fear evident on their faces. Aang’s tattoos then started glowing as he entered the Avatar state. 
“I'm sorry! I didn't know that it belonged to the Avatar!” Ghashiun shouted.
“Tell me where Appa is!” Aang shouted, with the voices of all the Avatars. 
“I traded him! To some merchants! He's probably in Ba Sing Se by now! They were going to sell him there! Please! We'll escort you out of the desert! We'll help however we can!” Wind started swirling around Aang as he started floating in the air. Sokka pulled Y/N as he booked his way out of Aang’s vicinity. They finally found a spot that would keep them safe from Aang’s sandstorm and Sokka wrapped Y/N in a hug to protect her.
“Just get out of here! Run!” Y/N shouted towards the other sandbenders. Aang dropped his staff and the wind formed a sphere around him. As everyone ran away, Katara stayed put near Aang. The sandstorm engulfed the two, and they braced themselves as the whirlwind swooped over them. Katara managed to embrace Aang in a hug, causing him to calm down. Sokka lifted his arms which were wrapped safely around Y/N’s head and body.

Avatar and West Wing!
I can always count on you to come up with good shows for these kind of memes. :)
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Top 5 favourite characters: Toph, Sokka, Aang, Katara, Zuko
Other characters you like: Iroh, Mai, Suki, Appa, Momo, Ty Lee
Otps: I didn’t really have OTPs on this show, except maybe Zuko/honor
Notps: ?
Favourite friendship: the Gaang, but I especially love Toph and Zuko together
Favourite family: the Gaang, Iroh and Zuko’s relationship
Favourite episode: It’s a lot harder to find an episode of this show I don’t love. I’ll go with The Ember Island Players, because that was my older daughter’s favorite so we watched it a lot. I’ve probably seen it fifty times, and it’s funny every time.
Favourite season/book/movie: Hmm, probably Book Two: Earth, because it’s the season they meet Toph! Also, there is no war in Ba Sing Se.
Favourite quote: “There is no war in Ba Sing Se.” “It’s the quenchiest!” “This tea is nothing but hot leaf juice!”
Moment that made you fangirl/boy the hardest: You know, I originally watched this show all out of order, so I don’t really remember what moments made me fangirl. Oh, wait, that’s a lie. No, I fangirled pretty hard over Toph and Sokka falling off the airship and then getting rescued by Suki in Sozin’s Comet. I just really liked that scene.
When it really disappointed you: ?
Saddest moment: Probably when Appa was lost, honestly.
Most well done character death: Hmm, I don’t think one death in particular stands out, but I did really appreciate how realistically this show treated death. It didn’t gloss over the fact that in war, people die. In fact, sometimes it lingered on that fact in really touching ways (Iroh’s son — *sob*).
Favourite guest star: I just went looking because I had no memory of any particular guest stars, and apparently Rachel Dratch was the voice of Actor Aang in Ember Island Players, haha. Also, Dante Basco’s brother did the voice of Actor Zuko, and a bunch of famous-for-other-animated-shows voice actors did the rest of the actors—Tara Strong, Scott Menville, John DiMaggio. That’s a pretty funny inside joke. :)
Favourite cast member: Mark Hamill, Dante Basco, Mae Whitman
Character you wish was still alive: I guess it’d be nice for Sokka if his girlfriend hadn’t turned into the moon.
One thing you hope really happens: ?
Most shocking twist: Hmm…Aang’s death at the end of S2, maybe? “There is no war in Ba Sing Se” was pretty creepy. So was the bloodbending lady. 
When did you start watching/reading: I think it was while the third season was airing? Annalie was 4 at the time, and had just started to get interested in shows that were more sophisticated than Blue’s Clues and Go, Diego, Go! I think she’d seen a couple of episodes here and there, and then one weekend Nickelodeon aired an Avatar marathon, with pop-up trivia bubbles. I think one or both of us happened to be sick, so we were just hanging out on the couch, watching TV while I crocheted and Annalie petted the cats, and we watched that whole marathon. That made us want to watch the show from the start, so we bought the S1 and S2 DVDs for Annalie as Christmas gifts that year. We eventually bought the S3 DVDs too, and a year or so later, when we moved from San Diego to DC, we watched the entire show in the DVD player in our minivan as we drove across the country for five days. So I strongly associate Avatar with road tripping. :)
Trope you wish they would stop using: ?
One thing this show/book/film does better than others: It does a GREAT job of being suitable and entertaining for kids while not talking down to them, and being a great story. It’s one of those rare shows that really is excellent for all ages, and I think it’ll stand the test of time, too.
Funniest moments: “Drink cactus juice! It’ll quench ya. Nothing’s quenchier! It’s the QUENCHIEST!
Couple you would like to see: ?
Actor/Actress you want to join the cast: ?
Most boring plotline: ?
Best flashback/flashforward if any: Any of the flashbacks of Aang at the air temple were good.
Most layered character: ALL OF THEM. Maybe Zuko, since we got to see him undergo a lot of character growth. (But really, all of them.)
Scariest moment: Anytime Katara went right up to the edge of going too far. She’s scary when she’s pissed off.
Grossest moment: The first one that comes to mind is Appa sneezing all over Sokka in the pilot.
Best looking male: n/a
Best looking female: n/a
Who you’re crushing on (if any): n/a
Most beautiful scene (scenery/shot wise): I love the credits.
Unanswered question/continuity issue/plot error that bugs you: I’m sure there’s something, but it’s been a long time since I’ve watched. 
At what point did you fall in love with this show/book: Pretty much immediately. :)
Thanks, Lexi! I’ll do West Wing in a separate post. :)
Send me a show/fandom and I’ll answer…
