Description Kolton countered every move his attacker made.

"So, Dad," he said. "When do I get to practice with a real sword?"

Sokka pulled back before releasing a flurry of attacks. "When I know you won't get hurt."

Kolton grinned, and Sokka knew what was coming. It was the same grin he'd seen on his wife's face time and time again.

Sokka went on the defensive as his son let loose with his own assault. Sokka countered every one, but was pleasantly surprised at the speed and accuracy of the blows.

At the end, the two were deadlocked. They pushed their wooden swords against each other. Kolton's grin never wavered.

The match was over. Another draw. Father and son bowed to each other. "Tomorrow," Sokka said as they walked back toward their house. "We'll practice with real swords tomorrow."

Kolton hollered and ran the rest of the way home. Sokka shook his head. He knew his son was ready for it. Now all he had to do was convince Toph.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This pic was requested a long time ago by I'm so sorry for taking so long GD! I hope you like it.

He asked if I could draw him a pic of Sokka training one of his kids. He said I could choose which kid so I decided to put Kolton in there. Now Sokka does train all his kids how to use a sword, regardless if they could bend or not, so both Atka and Shorty are good with the sword too. But not as good as Kolton, and I like the idea of Kolton sparring with his dad. It's a nice father son bonding moment.

And once again me fecking scanner screwed up the colors. Especially the colors on Sokka's outfit. And thank you Leona for writing another savage little piece.

Oh and I'm not taking anymore requests at the moment people. I'm swamped with work and its hard to find the time to do anything.

You know what? Every time you draw Sokka, I'm more and more impressed with him. He looks so perfect, and that has got to be a difficult pose to get right.

And, of course, Kolton looks so devilish here. Just perfect.

ThePhoebster In reply to Leona629 [2010-06-17 14:46:19 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Squeaker. And no the pose ain't perfect. Its off a bit. Oh well, maybe next time.

Haha! You know Kolton is a little devil so ya do. XD And he grows up to one HOT hunk of a devil!

Leona629 In reply to ThePhoebster [2010-06-18 11:02:46 +0000 UTC]

Whatever. I think it looks great, and since my opinion matters, then that's really all that needs to be said about it.

He is Kolton, and he shall be mine. And he shall be my Kolton.

You always are upset with your scanner (and I completely agree scanners are of the devil) so I wish I could see what the colors are supposed to look like since I think they look fine. Great work as always! A good pic for dad's day coming up!

Shouldn't be too hard to convince Toph. Some subtle reference to parents who are too overprotective of their kids might ring the right bell for her.
