Log; Incomplete

Who: Zuko and Sokka
Where The Grounds... away from Marluxia's man-eating plants.
When: Nighttime? Something like that.
Rating: We'll just stick it at PG-13 JUST IN CASE or something. I dunno.
Summary: While out for a stroll, Sokka runs into the one person he's been trying to avoid.
the Story:

Maybe it was something that came with being alone in a place where he didn't know anyone, or maybe it was a lack of his sister and Aang, and even the bison and lemur, but something changed and Sokka actually felt like walking, for the first time in a long time. The absence of constant travel weighed heavily on his mind... but he didn't miss it, not much. It was just weird.

Stretching and yawning, Sokka plopped down onto the grass below a tree. It was night, and kind of chilly, the grass wet beneath him. But it wasn't anything he wasn't used to; between growing up in the South Pole and traveling around the world, he could deal with almost anything. (Except maybe a crying girl, but that wasn't the point.)

With another yawn, he closed his eyes, drifting into something akin to a light sleep. And by light, I mean deep. The only way to wake him up would probably include violence, because when Sokka slept he really slept. He probably wouldn't even feel an earthquake.

Not like that really mattered.

Muttering a few random words, Sokka rolled over onto the grass, oblivious to the world around him. Mmm. Sleep.

Zuko had decided, after several days of keeping himself locked up in his room, that he needed some fresh air to clear the cobwebs in his mind. After all, a breather never hurt anybody, right? Nobody normal, at least.

Of course, Zuko was never one to be called normal.

The more he walked around the garden, the more he stomped past water fountains, the more he glared at random wildlife (whether it be plants and trees or the small, furry type), the more confused he got. He had no idea what he was doing there at the most important time in his life when his uncle was probably out somewhere getting killed. Not that the old man was a softie, it was just that Iroh was getting old.

He shook his head, closing his eyes tightly. He was not worried!

Letting out a deep sigh, the firebender wandered off through the garden, wondering how he would get out of there. His eyes searched the farthest corners of the backyard for a trace of an open gate, or potentially opened gate, in which he could escape from. While doing so, his eyes fell on one sleeping figure, and, with a quirky smirk, he walked over, tapping the boy in the ribs with on shoe.

"Hey, you shouldn't sleep on wet grass. No wonder you're the water tribe idiot," he teased.

When Zuko saw Sokka stir, he tried a bit harder to keep his smirk from growing. An eyebrow arched at the younger male's question. "I want to be able to take a walk without having to see your face," he said, his tone serious. And he probably was, seeing as how the firebender usually acted. Still, it was a lot of fun for the teen to see someone get riled up...

Shifting from one foot to the other, he mentally reminded himself to keep constant vigilance, never knowing when the other boy might snap and attack him. Not like Sokka could actually land a hit, but the knowledge that he could was enough for him to ready himself for anything.

Zuko's eyebrow arched at Sokka's easy-going attitude and actions. The other male didn't seem to want to fight, so he lowered his guard slightly, watching the water tribe teen. He blinked in confusion before looking away, staring at the horizon. "... Good. Your voice is annoying," he commented lightly. Why was he still there, then? The firebender had no idea why his feet wouldn't move, and why he felt like standing around in the awkward silence made him feel more at peace than before.

Zuko looked back at Sokka, staring at him blankly. It wasn't as if the other teen was ugly- in fact, Sokka had a pretty face and a nice figure- but his over-the-top actions and his quick temper were just things that added to Zuko's distaste of the water tribe boy. He couldn't stand guys like Sokka, and to add to that, he was from the water tribe. Ugh.

Zuko smirked lightly, "I bet," he mocked the other teen. Ha, sarcasm. The one thing he did like about Sokka. That way he could twist and bend his words to whatever meaning the firebender liked, and they usually were used to draw the boy closer to the edge. After all, he enjoyed seeing the water tribe boy snap- not only was it hilarious, the flustered actions were very blackmail-worthy.

An eyebrow arched over a yellow eye. "What?" he snapped back quickly. He wasn't one for conversation, unlike the male in front of him, and was a bit annoyed that he had tried to strike it up. 'Why aren't you leaving then?' his mind asked him but he batted the thought away.
