WHO: Leslie Burke & Aang
WHAT: feeling a bit lonely
WHERE: the zoo
WHEN: December 31st, night
It had been a little difficult, sneaking into the zoo, but she'd managed to pull it off. Somehow. Lucky enough for her she was small enough to squeeze through the bars of one of the fences and the security guard had been asleep. She almost woke him up when she'd tripped over a tree root protruding from the ground, but the guy proved to be a deep sleeper and hardly stirred. Silently, she'd crept across the zoo to the area where the rhinos were kept, leaning over the railing and smiling at the rumble of a greeting she got when Appa spotted her.
"Hey Appa," she said with a smile, her voice quiet, as if she was being mindful of the sleeping animals around her. "Sorry to bother you if you were sleeping. I was just sort of...lonely, is all. And bored enough to sneak into a zoo, apparently."
Leslie giggled at her own little joke, folding her arms on the railing and resting her head on them.
"Do you miss your parents, Appa?" She asked the flying bison, even though she knew he wouldn't respond. "'Cause I kinda miss mine."
