-Sokka POV-

DemonicDragon? The name didn't ring any bells. During the first time, I had a suspicion that MistDemon had been Zabuza.

But DemonicDragon was too wide of a spectrum. I could think of a dozen characters who would fit that description at the top of my

head.

[DemonicDragon: ??]

[BeastMaster64: Welcome young traveler.]

[DemonicDragon: What? Who are you?]

[BeastMaster64: The road will make itself clear in the darkest of time.]

[DemonicDragon: WTF?]

After that, I stopped responding, and thankfully Zabuza wasn't online either so he didn't see what I was writing. This was all so there would be a sense of mystery around me, and soon enough the guy or gal will start unconsciously revealing more information about themselves while they try and ask for info.

Sometimes you could tell a lot about a person by the questions they asked. So I wanted to get them as curious as possible. Also just because he used WTF, as a shortening of the words 'what the fuck' there was a high chance that the person was someone young. Older people don't normally use WTF.

Soon enough, these small things should add up and I should be able to guess their identity by then.

***

For hours, the new group member kept asking questions. At first, he was calm, but then got aggressive and left.

[DemonicDragon: Fuck you!!]

[DemonicDragon: What the fuck! Answer you bastard.]

[BeastMaster64: Sometimes you need to be the same kind of animal, but a different beast.]

Scrolling through the swear words, and rants of anger, I could see a pattern. Anger, anger, anger, and in the end, there was no calmness, he didn't even apologize. After all, I hadn't even insulted him, just said some strange and mysterious words.

The guy seemed quite young. And I had determined his gender too as he said that he would fuck my mother. Girls don't usually swear like that. Also judging by his tone, he probably was around his 20s and had been feeling stuck in life lately.

Anger wasn't an emotion you should use when trying to argue with someone in what was essentially an online chat. People have a lot more time than you think, and sounding angry wasn't the right response to anything. Instead, it will just make you seem foolish.

Yeah, I had a rough guess of who he was. But I didn't have any conclusive evidence yet.

[MistDemon: Who's the angry kid?]

Since the new member had gone offline, it seemed like Zabuza had woken up and read the previous messages.

[BeastMaster64: New member. I was just teaching our junior about life.]

[MistDemon: Aren't you around the same age?]

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

This fucker. I never told him my age, but he seemed to have figured it out. Then again, I wasn't the only one who was good at getting information out of people. Someone like Zabuza was probably leagues ahead, not was he older and more experienced, but he was trained since childhood to do this. On the other hand, I just picked up the skill during my last life.

Still, Zabuza was checkmated a long time ago, he just didn't know it yet. Not only did I already know his identity, but from the Naruto series, I even knew him better than he knew himself.

Honestly, this wasn't even a checkmate. More like me cheating in the game and then going to the game developer's house and fucking his wife too. It might sound like an exaggeration, but that was the comparison in how many steps ahead of Zabuza I was.

Still, I didn't mind having him think he was still ahead of me. After all, telling him the truth wouldn't be beneficial. But having Zabuza think of me as someone he could outplay, then I was alright with that.

[MistDemon: By the way, I have been thinking of this for a while. But we might be from different worlds.]

I knew that already. But I decided to act a little surprised.

[BeastMaster64: What?!!]

That was when I noticed that we were being tailed. Though it was dark and I couldn't see who attacked us, I noticed a giant boulder missile encased in fire coming towards us. Looking at the map, I noticed that it was Zuko and his ship. But there was something even more dangerous ahead of us.

They were shooting at us. "Aang, Katara, if you don't wake up we are gonna die~"

The way I told them was gentle, and Aang opened his eyes and yawned. "Is it morning already?"

"No, a giant rock covered in fire is being thrown at us," I calmly replied.

"Huh?" He was still a little sleepy, but as soon as he looked towards the light, he saw what it was. "Oh no! We are going to get hit!"

"Yeah, that's kinda obvious. I am not a good enough sky bison rider to maneuver him to dodge that, and it's kinda too late to have you take the rings and dodge."

"How are you still calm at this?!"

"The question should be, why are you so panicked at this? Panicking won't solve anything. Also, I don't think I can cut giant rocks like that. So kinda pointless to worry about it."

Aang was panicking, but if I used my MP on my spear. But I was going to have the Avatar deal with this, as showing all of my cards right now wasn't a smart decision. Especially since the Evil Lady might be observing me.

Using his airbending, Aang went against the fire missile and changed its direction with a wind blast. Just enough so it could miss Appa. But soon enough, more flaming catapult shots were thrown and Aang had to try his best as he grabbed the rings and maneuvered Appa to dodge. I just picked up my spear from the ground.

Since I didn't want to reveal my inventory powers, I had kept the Sky Piercer spear outside. "Aang, just concentrate on maneuvering out of the shots. Also, be careful of the other ships in front of us."

By using the Map, I had seen Zhao and a hundred or so Fire Nation that made Zuko's ship seem minuscule and had made a barricade in front of us. Which was dangerous. So now I have to help and try to get us past that.

FWOOOM!!

Even though it was dark, the sky turned red as Zhao's ships started firing. I was a little shocked because it seemed like they had already noticed us. Taking a deep breath, Katra woke up and was surprised. "What's that?!"

"This? Is just your brother about to do the coolest shit he has ever done. Kiwi!" The little fox cutlery woke up and rubbed its face, looking at my eyes, and knew that the situation was grave. "Time to become useful."

The little fox nodded as if understanding me. Katara seemed worried, and even I was a little nervous. But at the same time, I had been planning for this situation for quite a while now.

***

Kiwi jumped out of Appa's saddle and Katara was worried about the little fox and called out to her worryingly. "Kiwi!"

Sokka too jumped out of Appa, and Katara went to the edge looking down worryingly. There she saw Sokka plummeting towards the water, but he turned around and gave his sister a peace sign while mouthing. "Don't worry and just enjoy the show."

That was when a light shone so bright that it dwarfed even the fires in the sky and a mighty creature that shocked Katara and even Aang.

Majestic white silver fur, red eyes, about the size of Appa, and a blue fire was around it, nine tails swished around as it levitated.

"What's that? A wolf?" wondered Katara, mythicized by the majestic creature.

"A nine-tailed fox spirit!" Exclaimed Aang. "That is one of the strongest and most dangerous Spirits."

Fwosh!

The nine tailed fox flew through the air and caught Sokka before he could fall in the water. With him on its back, it shone even brighter.
