Avatar The Last Airbender Fan Fiction ❯ Fire Flakes ❯ Start of a Beautiful Friendship ( Chapter 2 )

Title: Start of a Beautiful Friendship

Author: Sephira jo

Rating: G

Warning: Focuses on Mai and Ty Lee, if you don't know who they are this will make no sense.

Author's Notes: I really need a better title for this set than “Fire Flakes.” Inspired by the first day of school that any kid ever goes through.

 

Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar, I'm not making any money off of this.

“If I tell you my name will you leave me alone?”

 

“No.”

 

“…Are you going to leave me alone anyway?”

 

“Nope.”

“Mai! You're my bestest friend, now let's go play!”

 

“You're choking me…”
