The stars shined in the dark night sky like small seeds being sprinkled into the earth to give life to a plant. Natural phenomenons like these are the ones that make you feel how insignificant you and all your problems are. It really was crazy to imagine that Zuko and I were both under the same sky, yet so far away.
"This is amazing to watch," Katara says in admiration.
"Eh, you've seen nothing once, you've seen it a thousand times," Toph says casually.
One of the smaller stars slowly got bigger, and I narrowed my eyes at it. I sit up to get a closer look. "You've never not seen anything like this," I say.
The star grew, speeding past us and crashing nearby. A fire erupted where the star, now meteor crashed. "It'll destroy the town!" Katara exclaimed.
"Not if we can stop it," Aang said.
Appa landed near the crash site, and Katara jumped on, heading to the creek to bend water over the fire. Aang and Toph made a trench to stop the fire from coming closer, and I went in to blow out the flames.
Sokka just stood there awkwardly.
The fire spread quickly, but I made a tornado from above to suck some of the flames and prevent them from getting to Appa, Aang, Katara, and Toph.
And with the help of (group name pending), we were able to put out the fire with ease.

The next morning, we got some food from the town we saved. Lucky for Aang and I, the town was vegan friendly. "These people have no idea how close they were to getting toasted last night," Aang says.
"Disguise means no hero love," I say, "no hero love means living peacefully, I don't see a problem with that."
"Well, I miss the worship," Toph frowns.
"Poor heroes," Sokka says sarcastically, "boo-hoo."
"What's with you?" Katara asks, "You haven't even touched your smoked sea slug."
Sokka turns to look at us. "It's just, all you guys can do this awesome bending stuff like putting out forest fires, and flying around and making other stuff fly around. I can't fly around, okay? I can't really do anything."
"Come on, no one can read a map like you," Katara suggests.
"I can't read at all!" Toph exclaims.
"And who keeps us laughing with sarcastic comments all the time?" Aang suggests.
"And who makes sure we don't get ourselves killed?" I add.
"Look," Sokka turns to us, "I appreciate the effort, but the fact is each of you is so amazing and so special and I'm... not."
Katara walks over and sits next to her brother, "I'm sorry you're feeling so down, but I hope you know, none of us see you that way." She places a hand on his shoulder. "I know what will make you feel better."
"You do?" Sokka looks at her sadly.

"Shopping!" Sokka clapped his hands excitedly, looking through the weapons store for something he liked.
