Interlude[]
·Wiz: In a world full of supernatural beings who possess powerful abilities, not everyone can quite stack up to their level.
·Boomstick: But as long as they have the weapons and intelligence to back them up, they’ll always have what it takes to hang with the greatest to protect their homes. Like with Sokka, the tactical genius of the Southern Water Tribe...
· Wiz: And Bow, the cunning Archer of the Princess Rebellion
·Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
·Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their armors, weapons, and skills to find out who would win a Death Battle.
Sokka and his Boomerang are ready for Death Battle[]
o Wiz: Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. Long ago, the four elemental nations lived together in harmony. These beings were always protected by an Avatar, a person born every generation with the ability to manipulate all four elements instead of just one.
o Boomstick: But everything changed when the dreaded Fire Nation, led by wicked Lord Sozin, attacked and began to conquer the world in his image, which is not pretty to be honest. Basic textbook tactics for all Evil Warlords
o Wiz: For over a hundred years, all the other nations were thrown into chaos as they joined forces to combat the evil Fire Nation with no Avatar to save them.
o Boomstick: Except for the Air Nation, who got wiped out by the Fire Nation, knowing that the next Avatar would be an Air Bender. But at least the Water Tribes were ready to fight. Leading the charge from the southern Water Tribe was Chief Hakoda, Father the last water bender of the South Pole, Katara, and his feisty eldest son Sokka
o Wiz: Witnessing his village raided numerous times by the fire nation navy, and having lost his mother at the hands of firebenders, Sokka grew up no stranger to warfare, and developed a strong determination to protect his village and those he cares about.
o Boomstick: But despite being the son of the skilled warrior Chief Hakoda, Sokka still had a lot to learn before he could be considered a deadly opponent on the battlefield.
o Wiz: After his father and all the other men made the difficult decision to leave the village to go fight in the ongoing war against the Fire Nation, Sokka was left behind as the sole defender of his tribe. Although he took this task to heart, with only young children to care for and no men of his tribe there to teach him the ways of the warrior, Sokka was woefully unprepared for the day when the Fire Nation arrived at the gates of his village.
o Boomstick: You see, just days earlier, Sokka and his younger sister Katara came across a boy and his bison frozen in a block of ice, who later revealed not only to be the last surviving airbender, but the next Avatar himself, Aang. After an incredibly embarrassing defeat at the hands of Zuko, Sokka realized he still had much to learn before he was ready to save anyone, and so he decided it would be best for him to aid the Avatar in stopping the Fire Lord instead of waiting around for his village to be invaded again.
o Wiz: Sure, Sokka may have been the only non-bender of Team Avatar at the time, he always found a way to prove he is not to be underestimated.
o Boomstick: While also leaving the audience and his friends laughing their heads off, whether he meant to do it or not.
o Wiz: Sokka showed his incredible intellectual potential, capacity to learn, and critical thinking skills all throughout the friends' journey.
o Boomstick: He was adept at creating weapons from a variety of materials and learned how to construct amateur explosives from his father, which he once used to simulate firebending. In another instance, Sokka used trickery and optical illusions to help his sister Katara fake the ability to earthbend.
o Wiz: As a nonbender among a group of master benders, Sokka was often overshadowed by the bending skills of his friends. However, it was Sokka who usually devised plans, gathered intelligence, and collected data and maps that helped his group defeat the Fire Nation. He often became the navigator and chose the best route to follow despite the objections of others.
o Boomstick: While Sokka may not have fancy bending powers, he has a bunch of weapons that serve him better than any magic dance moves ever could. First and foremost is his lucky boomerang, a gift from his dad that he can whack people at long-range with, and the best part is it always comes back!
o Wiz: He also carries traditional water tribe weaponry, such as a spear, a club, a hunting dagger, and a machete. With these weapons, he has thwarted bandits and creatures of all shapes and sizes. From Fire Nation Soldiers to Canyon Crawlers, Sokka has fought them all and held his own to live to tell the tale.
o Boomstick: Though he may exaggerate it a bit to impress the ladies. He eventually hooked up with a hot but fierce Kyoshi Warrior Suki, after she taught him a lesson or two in humility. And that was just one of his girlfriends. There was his first love interest Yue: who sacrificed herself to save the Northern Water Tribe, that’s rough buddy. Then there is Toph: a spunky earthbender who secretly had a huge crush on him, and…well…we don’t talk about Ty Lee.
o Wiz: However, Sokka’s most influential and remarkable traits are his intelligence and tactics. He has a knack for planning and strategy, and can develop complex maps and strategies better than any of his peers. He’s used this to outsmart and surprise several powerful opponents, including Combustion Man and the spirit Wan Shi Tong. He planned the invasion of the Fire Nation during a solar eclipse, and orchestrated an attack that devastated a Fire Nation airfleet.
o Boomstick: But unfortunately, that plan backfired thanks to the scheming and manipulation of Zuko’s evil sister Azula, who is ten times the villain Zuko ever was. With their plan a failure and Aang injured, Team Avatar was forced to retreat and go into hiding.
o Wiz: During their time hiding in the Fire Nation, Sokka began to doubt his worthiness to the team, deeming himself useless in a team consisting of beings able to manipulate the elements.
o Boomstick: Hoping to cheer his friend up, Aang and the others convinced Sokka to learn the art of swordsmanship from the Fire Nation swordmaster Piandao, as they also had improved their skills with the help of masters.
o Wiz: During his time away, Team Avatar would soon realize just how lost and helpless they were without him.
o Boomstick: Without Sokka, Team Avatar had no plan, no schedule, couldn’t read a map, and Katara was just as bad at crack jokes as Wiz is at finding a date on Tender.
o Wiz: HEY!!! Under the tutelage of Piandao, Sokka underwent various activities, including sparring matches with the butler Fat to hone his sword wielding skills and arts such as painting, calligraphy, and rock gardening to sharpen his mind. Eventually, when instructed to make his own sword, he used fragments of a meteorite that fell the night before to collect the metal needed to forge his blade.
o Boomstick: By the end of his journey, Sokka had become a fully bonafide badass, capable strategizing and leading dozens of warriors into battle during some of the most important and pivotal military conflicts of the 100 year war, including the attack on the Fire Nation War Balloons during the arrival of Sozin’s Comet.
o Wiz: But his deadliest weapon seems to be his creativity and wit, which he often uses in unorthodox ways to overcome obstacles or improvise, using his environment to his advantage like in his fight with Master Piandao.
o Boomstick: Where he demonstrated his skills in environmental awareness, agility, and the all powerful control of the high ground!
o Wiz: His skills as a fighter noticeably improved as the team's quest continued, although it was usually his persistence rather than skill that allowed him to land a blow against opponents of superior skill, such as Zuko and Ty Lee, who had an obsessive crush on him. Sheesh, and I thought Zuko was a ladies man.
o Boomstick: Speaking of which, after Zuko changed sides and joined Team Avatar, he and Sokka teamed up with each other to plan a rescue mission to save Suki and his dad from the Boiling Rock.
o Wiz: This was an extremely secure Fire Nation prison known for its history of unsuccessful escape attempts. The prison is situated on a volcanic island in the middle of a boiling lake, hence its name.
o Boomstick: Really, I thought it meant that it was the perfect place to take a Hot Tube Bath.
o Wiz: Sokka once again proved his genius level insight by planning not just one, but two different Jailbreaking schemes to escape the Prison. Although the first one failed, the second went off with only a few minor hiccups, freeing all of them and ruining the Prison’s unbreakable record.
o Boomstick: Eat that, you dumb warden.
o Wiz: Over time, Aang began to view Sokka not only as a friend, but as the older brother to the family he always wanted.
o Boomstick: “Sniff” Sorry Wiz, I think I got something in my eye.
o Wiz: But as tough as he is, there’s really no getting around his lack of bending.
o Boomstick: Well, he can also be stubborn and bullheaded, as well as overly confident at times. But despite that, Sokka went on to become Aang’s lifelong friend and eventually brother-in-law. He helped the Avatar found a new republic, and left a legacy of success behind.
o Wiz: It just goes to show that Team Avatar would be nothing with the wise-cracking non-bender hero, Sokka
o Katara: Let me guess, your instincts told you.
o Sokka: Hey, sometimes they're right.
o Aang: Um ... Sokka? You know we're going the wrong way, right?
o Sokka: And sometimes they're wrong.
Bow takes aim and fires for Death Battle[]
o Wiz: The planet of Etheria was once a peaceful and harmonious world. There were countless lands to explore and the people of the seven kingdoms lived normal and calm lives.
o Boomstick: But that all changed with the arrival of The Horde, an oppressive intergalactic empire ruled by Horde Prime, hellbent on conquering the multiverse.
Wiz: The only standing their way was the Rebellion of elemental princesses and their handsome single male archer named Bow.
Boomstick: Really choose the right name for his career choice. I mean, does he have a brother named Arrow and sisters named Sword and Shield, that’d be funny.
o Wiz: Bow grew up in the Whispering Woods with his two dads, George and Lance, along with twelve siblings. From an early age, Bow's parents decided that when they retired, Bow would take up ownership and responsibility of the library they owned in the as he was their youngest of their children
o Boomstick: Okay, I’m still confused on how Bow’s dads were able to have all those children with no women in their lives. Are they all adopted or did they invent cloning on this planet?
o Wiz: Moving on. His parents had forbidden their family from taking part in the Rebellion, as they'd seen the toll the war had taken on the world, and how futile it was to try and stop it. However, Bow wanted nothing more than to escape his boring life to seek grand adventures and to help end the conflicts once and for all.
o Boomstick: After mastering archery and fake-enrolled in a boarding school, Bow ran away to joined the Rebellion without his parents' approval or knowledge, fearing his parents' reactions should they discover his secret rebel status, and how it would affect them to know that he wouldn’t want to inherit the Library as they had intended. What a literal “Rebel”
o Wiz: Sure he disobeyed a direct order from his dads, it was during his time in the Rebellion where he formed the Best Friend Squad, alongside his future girlfriend Princess Glimmer and former Horde member turned legendary She-Ra, Adora
o Boomstick: Sure Bow may have been the only male member of the this all superpowered team of women, Bow proved that he had the skills to be a valued member of the Rebellion.
o Wiz: Bow’s not the only male member, aren’t you forgetting…
o Boomstick: Swift Wind may be male, but he is a talking and flying horse, that doesn’t count. And do I need to talk about Seahawk?
o Wiz: Oh No, never mind, I get your point. Hence his name, Bow is incredibly skilled in archery, being his primary form of combat. In real life his techniques would not work, but in series he is a talented archer.
o Boomstick: You shut up and let the man do his work. True to his namesake, the Bow favors a bow over anything else, and while that may sound like it puts him at a disadvantage, he's developed trick arrows for every situation, and I do mean every situation.
o Wiz: He carries typical weaponized arrows similar to those used by other fictional archers, like Green Arrow and/or Hawkeye. He’s got Net arrows that conceal a net within them, Sonic arrows that send out sound waves, Rope arrows that when fired sends out a lassoed-rope, and Zip line arrows.
o Boomstick: Then there are his more unusual trick arrows. Bow’s Sticky arrows cover foes with a green slime-like sticky material, Stun arrows that deliver a taser like stun, Water Arrows that act like a water gun, and explosive arrows ranging from small blasts to an atomic warhead.
o Wiz: Bow has also proven to be good in close-combat, having to be able to defeat a Horde soldier during the battle of Bright Moon and hold his own against Catra during the Horde's attack on the village of Thaymor.
o Boomstick: And after former ally Entrapta joined the Horde, Bow became the Teams resident gadget man and tech wizard, relying on him to fix their machines and stuff.
o Wiz: Bow is very skilled with many forms of technology, including inventing his own gadgets, such as his tablet device and his trick arrows.
o Boomstick: He’s mentioned before that he is a member of the Etherian Makers Community, because he likes to dabble in gadgetry. However, his skills pale in comparison to Hordak and Entrapta's.
o Wiz: Bow was trained as a historian and studied all aspects of Etheria's past, collected First Ones' tech and writings with his dads who encouraged him to become a pacifist historian.
o Boomstick: Luckily, when they did find out about his secret outings as a member of the Rebellion, they were proud of their son for finding something he loved to do and using their teachings to help save the planet. But not before reading him the riot act before they embraced him. Lucky guy, all I got from dad was a black eye and a bunch of broken dreams.
o Wiz: In the midst of highly advanced robots, super powered princesses, and beings from other dimensions, you'd think a simple archer would be of little use, but Bow’s feats prove he is anything but simple.
o Boomstick: Bow’s archery skills have allowed him to save Glimmer after Hordak tried to kill her when the Heart of Etheria activated and use an explosive arrow to stop Hordak from killing Glimmer with a piece of debris after his fight with Catra. It’s no wonder they started dating, they are always having to save each other’s lives on a regular basis.
o Wiz: Bow carries a tracker pad with him wherever he goes, allowing him to track down First Ones' tech and a flare gun; it allows him to send a distress signal or to create light in dark places.
o Boomstick: Well at least he’s got A gun with him, that makes him cool, just not the one that carries bullets, which makes him suck.
o Wiz: Bow has shown himself to be a very kind, cheerful, optimistic, and intellectual person. He serves as the voice of reason among his friends, constantly warning them of consequences and trying to keep them leveled. Even if some of them don’t always listen to him.
o Boomstick: He was actually the first to give Adora a chance to join the Rebellion, indicating his trusting nature, too bad it took a few tries before it worked with Catra.
o Wiz: Though it took him a moment to trust Scorpia when she decided to switch sides and join the Princess Alliance due to their history.
o Boomstick: Wiz, come on, Scorpia was never truly a villain, just an adorable and hilarious princess on the wrong side of things.
o Wiz: Bow also serves as one of the tech geniuses of the group, along with Entrapta, using his brain rather than raw force to solve a problem.
o Boomstick: Not to mention, he was constantly keeping an eye on Entrapta to make sure she didn’t accidentally blow something up, like the time she messed with the spaceship, while they were in deep space.
o Wiz: Yeah, she has made a few questionable mistakes in the past.
o Boomstick: A few mistakes, she was a walking disaster of mistakes.
o Wiz: Of course, but even with all his trick arrows, his quiver does have limited space, and he prefers to keep his armor minimal, focusing instead on offense over defense.
o Boomstick: So, he has to make every shot count. Plus, his Bow’s string can also be cut, leaving pretty much defenseless.
o Wiz: But hey, he's not all arrows and killing. Eventually after Horde Prime was defeated and peace was finally restored to the galaxy, Bow and the Best Friends Squad decided that they would explore the entire universe together. Not just as friends, but as a family.
o Boomstick: Bow’s life as rebel fighter may be over, but his life as an adventurer was just beginning.
o Bow: You say you're just ordinary people? I say you're warriors of the Rebellion!
Pre-Fight[]
o Wiz: all right the combatants are set, lets end this debate once and for all.
o Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fight[]
The scene opens outside of a Piando’s castle during the sunset. Sokka is standing in the front arena of the castle doors, performing a variety of strikes and lunges with his various weapons. He finishes off with his meteor sword, when the doors to castle creek open, and he is taken aback when he sees Bow stand by the front of the castle, making him fall to the ground.
Sokka: Wow! That. Was. AWESOME!!! I was just on my way here to receive lessons from Piando, are you one of his students?
Wanting to make a good impression, Sokka straighten himself up and turns around to provide his identity.
Sokka: Uh yes. Yes I am. I happen to be is best student by the way.
Bow takes a minute to observe Sokka, only to be disappointed by the warrior’s posing
Bow: No way, really? If you really are his best student, then prove it. Do you wanna fight?
Bow pulls out his bow and an arrow before taking a combat-ready stance, to which Sokka responds by pulling out his boomerang with the same action.
Sokka: With you? Alright, buddy. Show me what you got.
Sokka is the first to attack, running at Bow with his sword readied. Bow fires several arrows, which Sokka dodges, before using his bow to block his sword. Both swing their weapons at the other, making clashing and clanging sounds. Sokka goes for a series of stabs and swings, but Bow pulls out two arrows and uses them to block them all the attacks. Bow the slams one arrow on the ground, unleashing smoke all over the yard. As Sokka swings through the smoke, missing his opponent, Bow leaps from out of the smoke, hitting Sokka in the face and pushing him back.
Sokka: The face. The one thing you don't touch
Bow: Hey you attacked me first
Sokka grabs his club and the two engage in close combat. Bow punches Sokka in the chest and Sokka kicks him back. Bow walks back slowly, loading an arrow in his bow. He fires it but Sokka is able to catch it.
Sokka: Ha, if all you got are arrows, then you'll have to do...
Suddenly stops when he hears a beeping sound coming from the arrow he caught.
Sokka: Hey, is this thing ticking?
The arrow then explodes in Sokka's faces and he is flow across the field.
Sokka: Since when do arrows do that?
Bow: Since they were created by yours truly
Bow prepares to fire another arrow, but Sokka charges at him and tackles him and pushes him into the wall. He beats him with his club as Bow desperately attempts to load another arrow. Eventually, Bow is forced to engage in hand to hand combat, before he use his own bow to whack Sokka in the head again.
Sokka: Oh, That hurt
Bow: Not as much as this will.
Bow fires another another at Sokka, you hastily jumps out of the way as it explodes, release a splash of water. Sokka stands his ground with his boomerang raised and ready. With all his might, he throws his boomerang, blasting towards Bow. Bow ducks as the boomerang flies past his head, barely missing him.
Bow: Ha, you missed!
Sokka: Did I?
The boomerang spins around and hit Bow straight in the back of the head, making him fall on the floor. The boomerang returns back to Sokka.
Sokka: YAY! BOOMERANG!
As Sokka cheers for himself, Bow then grabs an arrow and arms in his bow, which he fires and knocks the boomerang out of Sokka's hand and slides across the field.
Sokka: AWWWW! Boomerang.
Bow: Not so fun, is it. Now it's my turn.
As Bow aims at Sokka, he quickly scrambles to his feet, and dodges the incoming arrow that hits the garden and explodes.
Sokka: AW Man!! Master is going to kill me when he gets home.
Sokka then runs over to retrieve his boomerang, but Bow starts firing his arrows at him, which he is able to dodges while jumping and screaming. Sokka is able to retrieve his weapon and hurls his boomerang forwards to try and hit Alliance Archer, but Bow fires an arrow that collides with the boomerang and send it flying away. Bow the rushes forward and delivers a fist to Sokka's face that sends him rolling back into the doors of the palace.
Bow: FOR THE ALLLLIANCE!!!! (Bow runs towards Sokka)
Sokka: AAAAAAAH!!!
Bow charges at Sokka and fires multiple arrows at him, but he waves his limps around and his able to dodge them as they form a circle around him. Sokka rushes at bow, attempting a karate chop, but he slips on one of Bow's discarded arrows and trips. At the same time, Bow trips over Sokka's club and they end up bumping into each other as they fall to the ground.
Sokka: What Just happened?
Bow: I think we knocked each other out.
After staring at each other and processing what just happened, Sokka then grabs Bow by his shoulders and pins him tot the wall, punching him and kicking him. However, Bow manages to escape by stabbing an Arrow into Sokka's leg, making him let go. Bow then use the rob on his bow to try and strangle Sokka with it.
Bow: Say uncle, Say Uncle!!!
Sokka: You...First.
Sokka elbows Bow in the gut and stomps on his foot, causing him to loosen his grip on his bow, and he escapes his weapon. Sokka then grabs his fallen club right when Bow tries fires three at him. He uses his fast reflexes to swat the arrows away, one of which flies outside the walls of the castle. The arrow (which was an explosive one) then lands on the stand of the always unlucky Cabbage Merchant, which results in an explosion that causes the entire stand to explode.
Cabbage Merchant: Noooo! My cabbages!
Bow then starts to fires multiple explosive and slime arrows at the Watertribe Warrior, making Sokka flee in a panic as several areas of the palace are blown up or ruined. As Sokka was fleeing, he then notices his Space Sword that he dropped and runs towards it. He is able to grab it and whacks away an incoming arrow that flies through a window of the palace, destroying it from the inside.
Sokka: Not Again.
Sokka charges at Bow and begins to rapidly strike at him. Though Bow uses his uses his own Bow as a shield to defend himself , he begins to be overwhelmed. He uses a smoke bomb arrow to blind his opponent and ram Sokka back. When Sokka recovers and runs at him agina, Bow then quickly pulls out an explosive arrow and throws it to the ground, creating hole that separates him and Sokka.
Bow: Nah Nah Na Nah Nah, can't get me now.
Sokka: Oh Really?
Sokka then jumps over the hole, but Bow was ready for this and fires a bola arrow that entraps around Sokka's legs and makes him fall on his face.
Bow: Yeah, Really.
Having had enough, Sokka sees his fallen boomerang and uses it to cut himself free before he combines his sword and boomerang together as a combo weapon. Sokka and Bow begin fighting again, Sokka slashing his blade closer more quickly while Bow continues to fire normal arrows that either miss or cause injuries to different parts of Sokka's body. Sokka stabs his sword into the ground and grinds it forward, flinging dirt and powder into Bow's eyes, making him drop his bow. Bow yells and tries to find his weapon and clear his face, but Sokka jumps in, slashing rapidly at Bow.
Bow then grabs one of his few remaining arrows and fires it at Sokka, but he manages to catch it right before it hits his face.
Sokka: Ha Ha, who’s laughing now Bow man.
Bow: It’s just Bow, and that would be me (wink).
Sokka looks puzzled, when all of a sudden, and electric shock surges through the arrow, shock him and making him to the ground. Bow then pulls out one of his last arrows and aims it at the fallen Water tribe Warrior. Sokka wakes up and sees Bow ready to fire and grabs his boomerang. Taking aim he throws it at the same time Bow fires his arrow. The boomerang slices through the arrow, splitting it in two, and making Bow duck in cover. He rolls and jumps right back onto his feet, right when he sees Sokka charging at him with his sword. Bow swerves to the side as the sword slashes him and his bow. Bow then kicks him aide and ducks as he boomerang swings past him and gets stuck in a tree it hits.
Sokka: Boomerang, no!
Bow: Ha, missed me, missed me now you gotta...
As Bow reaches for an arrow, he realizes that the Boomerang cut the ends of the arrows, making them useless. He also sees that Sokka cut the string on his bow when he cut him with his sword.
Bow: Uh Oh
Sokka then tackles Bow and puts him in a choke hold as he struggles to free himself.
Sokka: Here, kiss this.
Sokka then pushes Bow forward and impales his head through the sharp end of the boomerang. As Bow's body falls, Sokka then starts doing a victory dance until he hears the doors to the palace open and Piando walks in and sees is home in ruins.
Piando: Sokka?
Sokka: Uh Master, hey. Uh, I can explain
Piando: Oh I sure hope you can.
Results[]
Boomstick: Man Sokka's in Big Trouble now, and this time he can't talk his way out of this one.
Wiz: In truth, Sokka and Bow weren't the strongest warriors of their universe, but they certainly could compete with the likes of elemental heroes, but only one was far more superior than the other.
Boomstick: First of, Sokka's got a far wider arsenal than Bow, with his club, sword, and MIGHTY BOOMERANG. Sure Bow's arrow could pack a serious punch, they would only be able to work if they were fired from his primary weapon, his well "Bow"
Wiz: And Bow was technically the smarter opponent, having grown up in a world for more technologically advanced than the Avatar world. But Sokka was was far more cunning, using his clever mind to outsmart and trick his opponents
Boomstick: Not mention, Sokka has been training his entire life to become the perfect warrior, either from his dad or Piando. But Bow only taught himself or got his combat experience on the battlefield.
Wiz: Bow was a talented archer, a wiz with gadgets, and a durable fighter, but Sokka had the edge in consistency with his weaponry, tactical mind, and warrior skills.
Boomstick: Congrats to Sokka, take a “Bow” son. Oh wait, he already did that
Wiz: The Winner is Sokka
