The day of Black Sun was finally here. Aang had run off to confront the Fire Lord. Sokka was fighting a soldier somewhere and Katara and Toph were attempting to fight their way through to help Aang.

"I wonder how Aang and Sokka are doing?" Katara asked Toph as she hit a soldier in the head with a water whip.

"I'm sure twinkle toes is fine. Sokka will probably be ok as long as he doesn't run into Azula, Mai or Ty Lee, and we know that they're still in Ba Sing Se." Toph finished as she lifted a boulder up in the air and smashed it down onto a group of soldiers.

"But what about Zuko? We have no idea if he left Ba Sing Se, and I'm sure his firebending has improved." Katara said, attempting to keep the concern from her voice.

"Well, he could be the greatest firebender in the world by now and it wouldn't help him at all. It's the day of Black Sun, remember?" Toph told her, lifting another boulder up.

"You're right. I guess I shouldn't be worried." Katara agreed as a flaming boulder from a catapult came and hit the boulder Toph was holding, crushing her.

"Toph!" Katara yelled, running over to the boulder. But it was too late. The earthbender was dead. The soldiers and archers noticed her distraction and surrounded her. Katara didn't notice the lead soldier was a familiar face.

"Don't kill her." Zuko ordered an archer. The archer nodded and shot the poison arrow into her arm. Katara passed out immediately. Zuko walked over to her and picked her up carefully. "Don't worry,"he murmured, "you're safe with me."
