Unagi Riding (Sprite)

Yami had been traveling the earth kingdom, looking for something to do. She had heard about how there are giant fish off the coast of Kyoshi Island, and decided to pay a visit to see the Avatar Kyoshi shrine and to see these fish. As soon as she arrived, she knew she made a mistake.

The Unagi, the largest of the fish, was freaking out, spraying water all over the place. All of the townsfolk were trying to stop it, to no avail. Yami decided to help them. She jumped into the air, landing on the Unagi's back, another mistake.

Amaku walked through the forest of Kyoshi island. He reached a beach and found many people gathering around the shore. He pushed through the people to find a girl riding the Unagi. He had read about that thing once but had never seen it in real life. "Need any help?" he yelled to th girl riding it, as he sat down cross-legged.

Yami looked down at the guy yelling at her, and decided to make it a point that she didn't need any help. She grabbed onto the Unagi's giant fin and pulled, forcing it to change directions. She was now in control of it, and steered it away from the village to prevent it from destroying any other buildings. However, Yami got a little over confident in her abilities, and began to lose control over the Unagi. She grabbed out one of her knives and stabbed it, causing it just enough pain to stop jerking around so much.

She looked back down at the beach, the guy still staring up at her, and shouted, "Well, you know how it is. It's hard to control, but its a heck of a lot of fun. Why don't you join me?"

Amaku thought about it for a second. The lady was calling him to join her. "Wait, did you just stab it?" he called to her getting up. "Your not trying to kill it are you?" he said, laughing. "Nah, no thanks, but i was gonna go get some food if you wanted to join me, ms...?" he said.

Yami jumped off of the Unagi, landing on her feet, in a crouch. She stood up straight, saying, "My name is Yami Sentoki" she heard a string of gasps through the crowd as they recognized her name. "And yes, I would love to get something to eat, as long as you are paying" she said, feeling the growling of her stomach. She had little money at this point. In fact, she had actually stowed away on a fishing ship to get here. She hadn't had a home cooked meal in months, only living off of whatever she could hunt, which meant she had nothing to eat on the ship. "And you are?"

"Amaku. Amaku Sasuko." he said to her. "And the money...well...about that..." he said to her. "Wait!" one of the townsmen said. The towns people came to shower the girl known as Yami with money and coins. "Well, it seems you've got money..." he said to her, grinning.

Yami sighed. "This is why I hate telling people my name, they always worship me, mostly because they are afraid of me. However, i'm terrible at coming up with names, so a false name is out of the question. As long as nobody asks, I usually remain anonymous. She said, walking up the path leading to the village.

"Worship you?" he said laughing. "Thats because your a bujii. People like you are famous" he said. "Like i said, do you think you could...you know...get us some lunch?" he said grasping his stomach. "Oh, wait!" he said reaching into his pocket, and taking out a satchel of biscuits. "Look, i got these earlier, but i forgot i had them. Their honey biscuits." he said handing her one.

Yami took one gratefully. "Thanks. It sounds like you are just as starved as I am, so maybe we should get something a little bit more substantial for lunch. Besides, now that I actually have money, I can afford it." she said, taking a bit of the biscuit. She looked up in surprise. "This is delicious! Where did you get them?" she asked him.

"From the Vermillion empire. I got them at a bakery, and then I sailed here in my ship." Amaku said. "So, are we still up for lunch?" he asked her gesturing towards the village where all the villagers were returning. As one of them finished showering Yami with riches, he took a few coins. "You don't mind if I take one of this do you?" he said flipping them.
