Cabbage Fever

Long ago the four nations lived in peace and harmony, until one day the fire nation attacked. It was then that I started a small business just to get by, Selling my precious cabbages. My days were easy going and peaceful. Every cabbage I sold put a smile on the people’s faces. However, one fateful day at a port near the fire nation, my whole cabbage selling experienced changed. As I was passing by this busy alley, shouting on top of my lungs, “Cabbages! Get your cabbages here!” a strong gust of wind passed by me, before I knew it my cart of cabbages was ravaged and now on the streets of the town. I quickly looked around trying to find the culprits to this inhumane act. I saw three silhouettes one of them was a bald kid… How can they do this to an innocent cabbage vendor… ah my precious cabbages…

Deciding to not let this affect me I moved to a new town and continued to sell my cabbages. In this place, I figured it was safe from harm considering it was one of the most protected cities of the earth kingdom, I approached their gates and asked them to let me in to do trade, but they firmly rejected me and threw my cabbage cart away using their earth bending powers! What kind of people are they to do such harm to an innocent cabbage merchant. I then moved to another town after resupplying my cabbages… My cabbages…

After much travels to look for a nice place to sell my cabbages away from rebellious kids and stuck up guards. I decided to stay at a farming town somewhere on the outskirts of the fire nation there I lived in peace and harmony until I slowly gained enough fame to make my own private trading company! No more destroying my cabbages no sir, this time my cabbages will always be safe from harm.
