"I can't believe it," Aang says. "I know the war has spread far but Omashu always seemed untouchable."

"Up until now it was," Sokka replies. "Now Ba Sing Se is the only great Earth Kingdom stronghold left."

Katara walks over to Aang. "This is horrible, but we have to move on."

"No, I'm going in to find Bumi." Aang demands.

"Aang stop! We don't even know if Bumi's still.." Sokka trails off mid sentence.

"What?" Aang angrily says. "If he's still what?"

"Around." Sokka finishes.

"I know you had your heart set on Bumi, but there are other people who can teach you earthbending." Katara says.

"This isn't about finding a teacher, this is about finding my friend."

"A secret passage, why didn't we just use this last time? Ugh!" Sokka shrieked as Aang popped opened the sewer cap gushing out dirty green slightly chunky water.

"Does that answer your question?" I ask getting off Sokka back and climbing into the sewer.

"Ew!" I hear Sokka shriek from behind me.

"That's wasn't as bad as I thought." Katara says climbing out the sewer.

Sokka then climbs out the sewer looking like a blob monster.

Katara waterbends at Sokka, soaking the goop off him as Aang airbends at Sokka, drying him.

"AAGH!" Sokka screams trying to pull off the little pentapus.

"They won't let go! Help."

"Shhh." Aang says slamming Sokka against the wall.

"Stop, making so much noise, it's just a purple pentapus." I rub the pentapus as it falls off Sokka's cheeks.

"Hey!" someone yells.

We all turn around and see three guards approaching our way. Aang quickly hid his arrows.

"What are you kids doing out past curfew?" yells one of the guards.

"Sorry, we were just on our way home." I lie as we all start walking away.

"Wait," says one of the guards. "What's the matter with him?" he asks pointing to Sokka.

We all freeze. "Uh..he has pentapox sir," I lie grabbing Sokka's shoulder and facing the guards.

The guard walks over to Sokka.

"Um, it's highly contagious."

The guard freezes.

"Ahh it's so awful! I'm dying." Sokka groans walking over to the guard like a mummy.

"And deadly." I add.

"Hey, I think I've heard of pentapox, didn't your cousin Chang die of it?" the guard asked the other guard.

"We better go wash our hands," says one of the guards. "And burn our clothes." They ran away screaming.

Once they ran away, Sokka stopped fake coughing.
