((I think Omashu is south of Ba Sing Se because it was first seen very neer the beginning of the show, but then again we must know where Ba Sing Se is first))

(OOC: I have no clue which way the City of Omashu really is. Karena may have known, but she has that prob with the computer. And as Halaku has said, it is time we did move on. And if Omashu was seen early on in the show, then it must be south. Man, too bad they don't make a map of the whole Avatar world! LOL. Also, since Karena has puter probs, I'll help her character out a little by following, getting on Appa, etc. Katara..where are you??? LOL.)

Quan-Li gestured to Kiishu and Karena, "We need to leave, otherwise I'm afraid Halaku and his gang will soon fall upon us again, and I do not think we would survive that battle." Helping Karena up from the ground, he escorted her back to the group (hoping Kiishu was following) and helped her onto Appa, where Kanea still soundly slept. Yea, I know Karena won't like Kanea being here, but I just can't leave her here in her condition.

Making sure everyone was set, he announced, "To the City of Omashu!! Those riding, come on up!" Then he turned to Kiishu, "Hope we will see you soon, my friend."

Yuan replied to Halaku, "I have no questions, so lets go."

(And we're off! Minor Godmoding, but hopefully you will all forgive me. Keep an eye on the through the earth kingdom thread, next relivant post will be there with, yes, more minor godmoding...)

Halaku nodded and jogged off into the forest, the others in tow. Yuan and Shijin shrug before following after. Jun mounted Zen and kept the blind beast to a low speed in order to preserve his stamina.

Within a minute or two, the only sign that the four warriors and the beast had been there was the tracks they left behind. Halaku's Hunt was on the move.

Goruhui desperately climbed up Appa's back and nestled into his spot in the basket. "Hey guys, don't forget about me!"

He was so embarassed... his attempt at helping the group had just caused mild... dirtyness. "I uh.. I'm sorry I wasn't more help in the battle back there." He said to no one in particular scratching the back of his head... he had slinked off after his pathetic attempt and had remained hidden while the rest of the battle played out...

(OOC: Okay, I'll try to post a little more now... I've been having problems with... stuff.)

Seeing Goruhui climb up and say what he said, Quan-Li told him, "It's alright. That's why Omashu is so important. I heard King Bumi is a master Earth Bender, but a little goofy, so as my adopted father used to say. Maybe you can help yourself by learning next to me when we get there, for I'm sure you will get a hang of some moves...and hopefully then we'll have a bit of time to relax.

"I also heard that the City of Omashu is one of the most fortified cities besides Pah Sing Sei here. High cliffs, canyons, and the guards are always on their toes when it comes to outsiders."

OOC: Meep, Goruhui is back! LOL Oh yeah, I dont know if Karena had intended for Aang and Katara and Sokka to know the King yet, so I'll play it off like she did.

Katara looked away from Aang as Goruhui climbed on Appa's back. "That was you?" she asked, giggling slightly. "Well, your little dust cloud distracted them, at least." She smiled, and nodded to Quan-Li, who had joined them and spoke about King Bumi. "He's a strange man, that's true."


Karena stood up and followed Quan-Li back to Appa, but not before turning to Kiishu and giving a small half-smile.

OOC: Quan-Li, are you doing Aang and Sokka?
