red means FIRE - [ Hollow Bastion - Open to Katara and Sokka ]

In the very instant that the half-demon felt himself plummet into that same blackness, he found himself landing on his feet, hard. The brief trip felt as though it had taken only a few seconds and fifty years at the same time, which, Dante would tell you, was fucking weird. And "fucking weird" coming from Dante had to mean something, considering ( Read more... )

They had at least made it out of the town in one piece. It was Sokka who suggested they more to the outskirts of the town to regroup and discuss what they were going to do without fear of firebenders overhearing them talking about Aang or other things. Katara had to admit that for the city with the castle there was a very big lack of Fire Nation insignia, but perhaps they toned it down a bit when they weren't trying to intimidate helpless villagers or Earth Kingdom soldiers. Everything she knew about the Fire Nation said that that didn't make sense, but admittedly she knew very little about the Fire Nation that wasn't stereotype or rumor ( ... )

Once they were outside of the city, Sokka felt a huge wave of relief. Not that they were completely safe just because they were beyond the walls, but it was nice not having to fear Firebenders at every turn. Even though Sokka was still convinced they were in Fire Nation territory, he had to admit that the town was just... not what he had expected. The castle was eery enough, even without smoke and fire rising from its towers. Whatever. They hadn't exactly spent a lot of time in the Fire Nation and neither of them were experts. It didn't matter. The Fire Nation was bad. That's all that they needed to know ( ... )

Dante was far less impressed by the appearance two, random ankle-biters right in front of him. He yawned and stretched his arms over his head, sheathing Rebellion again. If two squirts wanted to fight or something, he wasn't going to take them on with a sword.

It wasn't like he was Vergil or anything. Grabbing one of them by the forehead as they flailed about wildly would probably be enough to fend them off.

"Aw, look at the boy scouts and the girl scouts working together," the white-haired half-devil snickered with a shrug. "Sorry, kids. I'm really not interested in buying any wrapping paper today. Run along home to mommy and daddy. Go on. Shoo." Dante bent down to be on their eye-level, ushering them away with patronizing hand gestures.

Katara couldn't help but feel insulted and also very, very confused. The man didn't stand like a firebender and he didn't talk like a solider. His weapon wasn't like anything she had seen before, though admittedly she hadn't seen a lot army ranks she didn't believe that that was a standard issue weapon.

He was irritable and shoved them aside as if they were kids. Then again, this was probably helpful. It wasn't as if they could really start telling him about how they had traveled all over the world with the Avatar ( ... )
