Poor Sokka.

Sokka was sick, he was shivering, and sweating like crazy, along with talking nonsense.

I sat next to him, Aang and I had went to find some type of plant, but we instead found a map so we came back.

"Hey Sokka." I commented quietly, observing as Katara set covered ice on his forehead.

His eyes looked around frantically.

"Lu-lu? Is that you Lu-lu?"

I raised an eyebrow, looking up to Katara who shrugged.

"Um yeah, I'm back." I grabbed his hand.

I may not enjoy holding hands but he's sick, and I feel bad.

His eyes travelled to mine. "No, Impostor!" He exclaimed.

"Lu-lu has blue lines on her head." He held up his free hand, holding up two fingers. "Two!"

My hair was in a middle part, so my hair lightly covered the tattoos.

Using my left hand to lift up my hair, "It's me Sokka." I assured.

"Oh good." He dramatically sighed in relief.

"Hey Katara, how's Sokka?" Aang walked up to the paw that we sat on.

Thank goodness Appa is such a large animal.

"Not so good." She responded truthfully. "Being out in that storm really did a number on him."

He squeezed my hand as he began to tremble once more.

We all looked at him in sympathy for a few seconds before Aang spoke up.

"We couldn't find any ginger root for the tea, but I found a map." He held it up. "There's an herbalist institute on the top of that mountain."

I nodded. "There's probably a cure for him up there."

"You guys he's in no condition to travel, Sokka just needs more rest." Katara added. "I'm sure he'll be better tomorrow."

I was going to agree with her until she coughed.

Oh no. That's how Sokka started last night.

I've coughed a couple of times.. but I'm sure it's just the air.

"Not you too." Aang looked at her sadly.

"It was just a little cough." She reassured before coughing again.

"That's what Sokka said yesterday." My soft composure gone, as I let go of Sokka's hand.

Jumping off of Appa's paw.

"Exactly!" Aang pointed to Sokka. "Now look at him. He thinks he's an earth bender."

We turned to Sokka who now sat up. "Take that.. you rock!" He flopped his arms.

"A few more hours and you'll be talking nonsense too."

"I'm going to find some medicine." He finished, picking up his staff.

"Come on Alura." He urged, as he walked past me.

I followed behind shortly, my staff ready in hand.

Just to see lighting in the already grey clouds.

"Maybe we should go on foot."

I nodded, "It's probably safer-"

My voice hitched in my throat.

No please no.

A pressure in my nose started building up.

Aang looked at me, "What were you saying Alu-"

"ACHOO!"

A gust of wind followed my sneeze and Aang went rolling across the floor.

I covered my mouth, a bit to late evidently, but mostly in shock.

Aang looked at me from the ground, bewilderedly.

"Dust?" I shrugged innocently.

Long story short, I was left behind.

Aang forced me to stay here, I would have went with him otherwise.

Though I'm glad I had to stay, because he was right.

I quickly began feeling horrible.

My stomach wouldn't stop hurting, and it constantly felt like I have to throw up.

I also have a headache, that comes and goes. One that comes with dizziness and major fatigue.

Dazing in and out of sleep, I think Katara sent Momo to go and get water.

But that's unimportant.

I hope Aang's okay.

3rd POV

Aang shook his bestfriend awake.

After a long, crazy trip, he had finally received the frogs needed to cure his friends.

Alura quickly shot up, groaning before lying back down on Appa's tail.

Her headache had not escaped her, and her fatigue was worse than ever regardless of the sleep she had overnight.

He stuffed a frozen frog in her mouth. "Suck on this."

She obliged, frankly not understanding a single thing going on around her.

Aang flopped beside her on Appa's tail, exhausted both mentally and physically.

"Aang how was your trip? Did you make any new friends?" Sokka mumbled from Appa's front paw.

The frog in his mouth mumbling his voice.

"No I don't think I did." The Airbender replied glumly

The female Airbender spit out her frog, it landing on her thighs.

"He doesn't need more friends, because he has me." She pointed to her chest, voice filled with haughtiness.

"Right Aang?" She asked. Her voice wavering.

He smiled to himself, he is very thankful for Alura.

He looked at her, his heart swooning in a way he doesn't even understand yet.

"Right." He replied jokily.

Sitting up, he placed a hand on her stomach, pushing her down.

"Which is why I need you to suck on this." He held up the frog. "It'll make you feel better, I promise."

Or maybe he did.
