Rain silently fell from the darkened sky above a forest's canopy, that ran along side of a large river. It had been raining from a couple of days now and was bond to let up soon. The heavy droplets fall echoed lightly on everything they touched.
Steadly drifting down the river was a large wooden and metal ship. Towards the stern of the ship was a large wheel, that seemed to steer the whole ship. Beside the ship's wheel hung a shreaded flag, floating in the wind. Few men were about on the ship's deck, all bearing scimitars and ratting clothing.
Suddenly the sound of squishing soil, was heard but not by the men on the ship. For running along, hidden in the forest's walls, a figure followed the ship. It ran quickly even faster than the ship. Once it was a few feet ahead of the ship it stop continuing to hide in the shrubbery but coming into view at the same time has a young woman. She seemed to blend in with her surrounding, for her clothing and looks matched the forest. "Alright," She thought allowed, unsheathing two large daggers from her side. "That town's just ahead and these pirates seem to be ready for docking there. Once they go for supplies or try to plunder the town, I steal what I can from their boat, kill whom ever gets in my way and destroy the ship so I can get away with ease. If nothing goes wrong then I've out done myself yet again." The young woman watched the ship and waited patiently for it to go by before she followed again. "Alright Hael, time to get ready for the worst..." She said again to herself, saying her own name. Hael still continued watching, yet she had a strange feeling that something wasn't quite right. Like, she was being watched herself.

Smiling a young woman, appearing to be only 16, pulled up the hood of her scarlet cloak. "Pirates, interesting choice of a death wish Hael. Maybe, " She whispered. Pausing to pull out a single card, "I can do something about it though." Chai, a firebender who was different then the rest, was hidden. Not by normal means though. She was in her spirit form. Were only a select few could see her.

Suddenly Hael stops has her ears begin to twitch from vibrations in the air. She quickly turns and looks around, but see's nothing. What she didn't know was one of her daggers pierced through the shrubs leaves she was hiding behind, catching a extremely small ray of light. The light traveled through the forest and shined into an eye of a pirate, who just happened to be walking above on deck.
~~~On Ship~~~
"What be that?!" The pirate covered one of his eyes has he looked out into the forest. He then saw something out of the ordinary. "Hey you!" He called to a fellow pirate. "What do ye see there?" The other pirate walked up towards the skinny pirate and looked out to the forest where he was pointing to. "It looks to be a blade." "That's what I thought it to be. It seems someone be planning an ambush. Inform the Captain of our find." "Aye..." The larger pirate then left for the cabins.
~~~Back On Land~~~
Hael cautiously looked around for she thought she had heard someone call her name. "Must be the wind...." Hael whispered with a shiver shortly following after. Hael then continued, creeping along the ground, following the ship and not knowing of her slip up.

Chai frowned. "Poor child. Doesn't know what she's getting into." She whispered. "Ah well, I'll let her learn her lesson from this, then safe her." Walking lightly, Chai's foot steps made no sounds what so ever. She was nothing more then a silent form. All she could do was wait for what was supposed to happen, happen.

"Shame on you Chai, honestly." a voice that sounded like to said from behind her. A woman in a godesses clothing stood behind her, raven-colored hair falling down her back and shoulders to her waist. Her blue eyes shimmered in the dim light and her feet barely seemed to touch the ground.

Chai laughed softly. "Well hello there." She said turning around. "May I ask who you are?" She said moving through a deck of cards. She seemed so calm like always.

She shook her head. "Surely you know of Sumiko, the goddess, Chai" the woman said. "I am her host" a softer voice said. "I am Ki"

Laughing softly, Chai pulled out a card. "Oh! Ki, why I have no idea why I didn't reconize you." She said reading over the card quickly. "Well, I do know better but this is her fate. If it wasn't I who discrated her it would have been something else." She paused to smile and put Ki's card away. "I think Hael is just lucky I'm around. Seeing as I'm the Card Walker and change her fate slightly." Chai said, still keeping an eye on Hael.

Ki smiled. "Changing fates, are we? Tsk, only gods should do that". A chuckle was heard "Indeed"

Suddenly, Chai got very serious. Her face seemed different from it normal kind and laid back look. "I'm not changing her fate, Ki and Sumiko. Besides, the power I contorl is far greater then you both and You know it." It was hardly known for Chai to be serious but she was correct. Her powers were given to her solely by the Avatar. The Gods, nor anyone else, had a say in what she did.

Ki shook her head, but Sumiko controlled the action. "Chai...your power may be great" she cupped the Fire Nation girl's chin. "But it will never be greater than that of the goddess of fate herself" she nearly hissed. Sumiko, was not one of the nicer goddesses, and she gave a gracious smile, releasing Chai's chin, and turning her face pensievely [sp?] to the sky. "However...today...I will not pull any strings.
(( *shiver* Sumiko is creeepy! ))

"Do not touch me!" She hissed back. "Your goddess may be the goddess of fate but that does not give you any right to touch me." For a second she stood her ground but it only lasted a second. Turning back to watch Hael, Chai tried to forget about Sumiko and Ki. She turned her thoughts back to Hael and Roku.

Hael stops, this time standing to her feet and turning around. "I can't shake this feeling... What is it...?" Hael turns and looks out of the forest. "Someone's watching me... That's my feeling." Grips daggers even tighter then leaps up into the tree's canopy, vanishing.

'Goddess...may we go now?' Ki asked in her mind. 'No! I want to see more of this'.
Ki winced.
'Yes...my goddess'

Following Hael, Chai smiled. "I'll just whisper to her then." She said softly. Pulling herself into a more visble form, Chai spoke softly to her. "Hael, do not worry. We will meet longer soon." She said before moving into her spirit form again.
