"Really? Wow. This is going to be a great help, thanks. Now I'm almost glad that my Firebending is a huge irritant to those who are trying to get to sleep at night." He laughed quietly to himself, nodding all the while in gratitude. "So the Tea Vendor in the town square, huh? I'm going to have to remember that. Do they sell any birds in Ba Sing Se that can be used to carry messages around?"

"No problem! I guess you could get one at the pet store, but I always thought that was more of a Fire Nation thing. You could probably find one if you looked, what with all the... Characters in Ba Sing Se. You guys use falcons, don't you? I mean, we've got a post office."

He brought his free hand to his chin, cupping it in thought. "I guess it is more of a Fire Nation trait than anything else. Well, I'll manage to work with what they've got, I probably should have really thought this through before setting off from the ship though." Jian sighed. "But what's done has been done. Anything is easier than walking back to the docks to use the communications system there."

"We've got our own means of post, so don't worry! A lot of important things go out from Ba Sing Se, so we've got express mail." She ducked under a low hanging branch, focusing on the path in front of her. "So, tell me more about this General Chow. Who is he?"

"Sounds efficient." He commented, mimicking her movements as they continued on, the light from his flames illuminating the path ahead. "I don't really know much about the man since he was before my time but there are several war stories floating around. They say that he has the strength to take on an entire squadron by himself so of course, when he went missing, it threw the higher ups into a frenzy."

"Wow. So I guess it's pretty important that you guys find him. I hope the tea vendor guy helps you. He always seemed a little bit suspicious to me. Maybe he knows something."

"I hope so too... But my er, boss gave me a substantial amount of money so maybe several coins can loosen secretive lips." Jian paused for a moment, thinking. "Does the tea industry actually do well in Ba Sing Se? I mean, there are many other things I could resort to to get information if that doesn't work..."

"The tea business pretty much completely thrives off of my Grandmother," Kali laughed. "But if you really wanted to, you could arrange a meeting with the Senator. It's really hard to get appointments with him though. Kind of like a really high-end steakhouse."

"But I guess the higher up they are, the more information they have concerning the goings on in the city. If I'm going to look for leads, I might as well go big or just not bother." He shrugged. "Unless you people also have shady information brokers lurking around somewhere..."

"I don't know any, but you could probably find someone of you lurked around in the alleys for a little while." Kali brushed back a final thicket of bramble, and stepped out into the light. "Here we are! Ba Sing Se. We're sort of on the outskirts right now, but if you go right down that road for a while you'll be in town square. That's my house, over there."

"Duly noticed." Jian nodded, extinguishing the flames that engulfed his hand as it not only quickly became useless in the bright lights of the city but would also draw unneeded attention onto himself. "I owe you one and I'll remember that in the future."

"No problem! It was kind of fun not getting in a fullout Sass-War with whoever I happened to find." She smiled. "I'm sure I'll see you around town sometime if you're here for awhile."

"True enough but it very nearly happened." He earnestly returned the smile, readjusting the strap of his shoulder bag. "Well, maybe I'll see you later. It's still quite early and there's a possibility that the tea vendor hasn't closed up shop yet."

" Go check! You might find something." Kali smiled, starting back for the house. "Well, good luck with your search!"

"And good luck in, er.. good luck in school I guess?" He shrugged before nodding in farewell, trudging in the general direction of the city centre.

Kari exited her house early that morning, leaving the Airbender asleep; he had a good few hours before her mother returned after all. She grabbed a bucket on her way out, declaring inwardly that it was about time she collected more water.

Tikaani stood at the edge of a river, practicing her waterbending. She moved almost as if she was dancing, the water following her as she moved along the bank. Not far away, Siku slept, curled up with his tail over his nose.

She paused at the sound of water, rolling her eyes. More people? Maybe it's one of those children from yesterday. The Earthbender tread lightly as she made her way through the trees, green eyes searching the area ahead of her.

Tikaani continued to move up and down the land, before stopping and bringing a large bubble out of the water. She let it hover for a moment before breaking it, the droplets splattering like rain.

Hiranya and Rajiv sat by Tikanni, the former practicing a dance while the latter grinned at the bending, gasping in delight at the water's movement.
