Sho

"fire"

- My name is Sho. I'm going to see my Grandma. B-but mom is sick, so I have to go on the train by myself.

Sho was a little girl from the Fire Nation who was on her way to visit her grandmother when she met Avatar Aang and Sokka on the Fire Nation Train. She is a timid, anxious girl who often panics.

History
Most of Sho's history is unknown, but one day her mother decided that she would visit her Grandmother via train. Unfortunately, Sho's mother became ill and Sho was forced to go on the train by herself. When she arrived on the train, she was visibly scared; this was not unnoticed by Avatar Aang, who offered to sit with her on the train. She agreed, and Aang taught her a breathing exercise to calm her down while on the train.

This worked, and she began to talk to Aang about how the train wasn't so scary, but the people were. She asked why someone would have a strange tattoo on their forehead. Aang took this to mean she thought his headband was a tattoo and began hastily explaining it. However, she told him she did not mean him, but a man who had just gotten out of his seat. This turned out to be Combustion Man, who began to destroy the train in order to catch Aang. Sho became frightened, and began to hug Aang, who told her to stay there and practice her breathing exercises.

She became amazed at Aang's Airbending and used the techniques he had taught her to keep calm while the other passengers kept panicking. Sho informed them of the technique Aang showed her, and they all began to do it too. Aang told her she did great when they had finally defeated Combustion Man, but she told him that the train was pretty badly destroyed and she needed to be at her Grandmother's house by dinnertime. Aang then showed her his Bison Whistle and told her he wanted Sho to meet his favorite animal, who would be able to take her to her Grandmother's house. She was comforted by Katara when Sho began to take deep breaths.

Her fate after the end of the War is unknown.

Trivia
