Avatar; The Royal Firebender.

The King of Omashu

Zuko sneezes from the cold having been convinced by Aang to wear the attire of an air nomad, it gives him little protection from the chill of the wind. The snow crunches beneath their feet as the group trudges their way up a snowy hill somewhere in the main continent of the earth kingdom. As the wind blows harder, Zuko grunts in annoyance and breathes some fire into his hands to keep warm. Sokka mocks him for not being able to stand the cold but is smacked by his sister who then offers the avatar a parka to wear. As they reach the top, Aang announces their arrival to their destination.

"The earth kingdom city of Omashu!" He annonces as miles in front of them sits a gigantic city in on the top of a mountain, the city itself built upon what seems to be giant pyramids of moved stone with hundreds of houses and buildings dotting the sides. In the center of the main pyramid sits a grand castle with a door so large it can be seen for miles around. "I used to always come here with my friend Bumi!"

"Wow... we don't have buildings like this at the south pole." Katara says in awe of the giant city.

"They have buildings here that don't melt." Sokka rejoices in an envious tone.

"It's big." is all Zuko says getting the three of them to turn around and arch an eyebrow at him.

"Well, theres no point in dallying around here, the real fun is inside the city! Come on!" Aang says as he takes off with his glider lacking the foresight to bring the others with him.

"I knew he would leave us behind, come on let's just get on Appa. My feet are killing me." Zuko complains before sneezing and shivering even more.

"Mrooaaaaahhhh." Appa bellows as Zuko climbs up his fur and into the saddle.

"Wait! Aang come back here!" Katara calls out causing the air bender to bank right and fly back to them. "It can be dangerous, if that Zhao guy thought you were the avatar maybe they will to. You and Zuko need a disguise."

"Well what am I supposed to do, grow a mustache?" Aang asks sarcastically.

"Plus, it's not like I can hide this all that well" Zuko says pointing to the obvious scar over his eye.

Moments later, Aang is twitching his nose having been put in Appa's fur to make a full head of white hair and fake mustache. Meanwhile, Zuko has been given an eye patch and a change of clothes now wearing Sokka's extra set that he has yet to sew down to his size. "Ugh this is itchy, how do you live in this Appa?" Aang questions getting the bison to snort in is general direction.

"At least you can see where you're going. With my luck i'll probably walk into so- Oof." Zuko says as he walks face first into a boulder before falling over. Sokka and Katara both laugh at this before ushering them to come on and helping Zuko off the ground.

"Perfect, now you look like my grandfather." Sokka says sarcastically with a sly grin on his face.

"Well... technically, Aang is 112 years old so it is believable." Katara responds as Aang picks up his staff and spins it very quickly then slams it into the ground to use as a rudimentary cain.

"I have no idea what I'm gonna say so I'll just stay quiet and try not to walk into anything." Zuko says as he tries to walk in a straight line.

"Now let's get a going you whippersnappers, the big city awaits." Aang says in an attempt to pretend to be an old man. Katara and Sokka look at each other slightly concerned before they start the walk to the massive city.

Hours of walking go by as the quartet make the way up the road to the city, Sokka having to direct Zuko the entire time due to his lack of depth perception. Along the way Aang recounts stories of when he used to come to Omashu over 100 years ago. "Don't worry about this place, the people here are the friendliest in the world." Aang says just in time to see the gate guards throw a poor man's cabbage cart off the cliff due to them being rotten. "Just keep smiling." He says jovially as he walks up to the guards. The center guard earth bends a large bolder over Aang before questioning his business.
