[The passengers of the ship were the crew.]xXxKateKaysxXx said:"It disappeared on us actually; right into the ground. Woosh!" Rav explained, and Amita couldn't help but hide a smile. "Are you serious?" Ila gaped. "I wish I'd seen it!" "Why would a spirit attack the town though?" the boy continued, and the girls both shrugged in unison. It really didn't make much sense at the moment.
"Might as well get everyone back together," Rav stated when they mentioned Milus. "Do you think he's still with Mei?" Rav paused, before his eyes widened. "Wait, Mei's still waiting on us!" The airbender started to run off back towards where they had come. "I'll find you two soon! See if you can find Milus or anyone!"
"Well, Ila," Amita sighed, "it looks like it's just us for now." "Yep, sure bet!" the earthbender grinned. "Wanna see if you can clear some of this rubble out of the way?" Ila slauted. "Yeeeeessiree!" She took a stance and stamped her foot into the ground, lifting up the messy pile of jumbled stone easily. "I'll try looking for Milus." "Gotcha!"

While Sesi and Min Ra had been conversing on firebending (which the boy would have killed for to be able to learn... though obviously a figure of speech), Kesuk stood around impatiently. He and Shila really had nothing to do at the moment, seeing as they were both waterbenders. Finally they got to take their place in the spotlight.
"Well, new crew," Min said, turning to them after finishing up her firebending training session with Sesi, "to get to the Fire Temple, we need to trim the sails and tack to starboard. There's a compass and a map, so I'll direct you while you get to it." Kesuk brightened. Finally, they were actually getting somewhere with this adventure!
"Aye aye, Captain Min!" the boy mock saluted, smirking. He turned to Shila, grinning. "Well, adventure, here we come, right?" Their adventure, at the moment, wasn't looking particularly great, having been attacked by a giant sea creature made entirely of water, and then losing pretty much the whole crew and passengers of the ship, but there was always the now.
Shila saluted. She then used waterbending to message Sesi's brothers that their sister had found a firebending teacher and would come with them to see the world, starting at the fire temple (by the way, she did this by forming the water into words. Took a lot of time, but was worth it). She ran to the sail, and started setting it, under Min's instructions. When the ship had completed its tack, she (for the dramatic effect) ran up to the prow of the ship, and yelled out to the world:
"We're going on an adventure!"
