'C'mon, James dinner's ready and it's nearly time for Avatar,' I yelled.

'I'm coming, I'm coming,' my 11 year-old brother cried as he came sprinting up the stairs. 'What episode is it, Belle?'

"The Boy in The Iceberg,' I told while dishing out dinner.

'Again,' I heard my brother mumble.

We sat down on the couch with nachos on our lap as Avatar began.

'Oh my god, how COOL would it be to go into the Avatar world,' I exclaimed after the "to be continued" sign came on. 'I would make like the best airbender.'

'Yeah, right one kick and you would be flat on your arse,' he told me.

'Right and you would be a great airbender?' I asked.

'No, I would be the bestest earthbender in the world.' He answered.

'What in your imaginary world and is bestest even a word,' I argued back.

'James, Belle BED NOW,' Mum screeched from down stairs.

'OK,' we both yelled.

'Night, Belle,' James said as he went into his room.

'Yeah, night,' I said absently as I wondered into my room and got changed into my pale blue pjs with Chinese symbols and tank top. 'Yeah it would be cool to go into the Avatar world,' I thought as I drifted off to sleep.

'Mmmmmmm,' I groaned as I stretched my arms and legs. Then I noticed a warm body pressed up against me and an arm wrapped around my waist.

'Ahhhhhhhhh,' I screamed as I rolled out of the bed and landed on cold metal.

The guy in the bed's eyes opened and rolled off the bed and before I knew it I was pressed up against the wall with my arms pinned behind my back.

'Who are you? And what were you doing in my bed? He said into my ear.

'Who am I? Who are you? And how the hell am I supposed to know how I got into your bed when I don't even know who you are!' I exclaimed.

He spun me around to face him. I saw the scarred face, jet black ponytail golden eyes that were so familiar. I jumped back.

'You're Prince Zuko,' I almost screamed.

Yes, I am,' Zuko said calmly.

'The prince that got banished, disowned and scarred by his own father,' by the time those words had slipped out of my mouth I had realised I had said the wrong thing.

He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the door.

'Get off of me, your hurting,' I told him wincing.

'Good,' he said shortly and squeezed harder as he led me down the corridor and down some stairs.

'Jeez, no wonder your father banished you if this is how you treat girls,' and as I said this is his hand started to heat up and a searing pain through my hand and all I could smell was burning flesh. Prince Zuko shoved me into a cell with tears streaming down my face.

(Zuko's p.o.v.)

'Maybe that will teach you a lesson about manners,' I told the small girl with dark brown hair, chocolate eyes and freckles. She couldn't be more then 12 with tears streaming down her face and clutching her hand.

'Prince Zuko there is a very strange light in the sky,' a sailor called to me. I took one last glance at the girl with tear-stained cheeks who had all of the sudden looked up.

'Maybe it's the Avatar,' Zuko thought. I walked up the stairs to where my Uncle was sitting playing cards I looked at the light through my telescope.

'Finally,' I muttered. 'Uncle, do you realize what this means?' I said a little louder.

'I won't get to finish my game,' Uncle Iroh grumbled.

'It means my search-it's about to come to an end,' I said. 'That light came from an incredible light source it has to be him.

'Or you know it could be the celestial lights. You know you should have some calming tea. Maybe that would stop you attacking defenceless girls,' I heard a female voice and I whipped around. The brown-haired girl was leaning against the door.

'How did you get out?' I asked her.

'Let's just say the guard had a little accident,' the girl said wryly. At that a guard ran through the door.

'I'm sorry, sir she just ran through my arms and hit me on the head,' the guard said while rubbing his head.

'My name's Belle so quit calling me she,' she told me and the guard.

'Who is this Prince Zuko? A girlfriend,' Uncle Iroh asked slyly.

'NO! She is a prisoner and is going back in her cell now!' I yelled at my Uncle.

(Belle's P.O.V)

'How old are you? Belle, isn't it?' Iroh asked kindly.

'Yeah, I'm 14. As a matter of fact it's my birthday today,' I said and I saw Zuko looking surprised. 'What did you think I was 12 or something?'

'Errrrrr…Maybe,' Zuko stuttered

'Don't worry, people mistake my age all the time. You know with the size and freckles,' I told him.

'So it's your birthday, I think we should celebrate with a music night and a party and Zuko you have some girl's clothes and a shower in your room. Because my dear you're a little dirty,' Iroh said

'Ummmmm…Ok,' I said.

'Zuko take her to your room for a shower,' Iroh ordered and surprisingly he nodded.

(James' P.O.V.)

'Where the heck am I?' I asked as I stood up.

'Look I found another one,' I heard a boy's voice and looked around to see a boy running towards me.

I walked over to him. 'Who are-wait a minute your Sokka, that's Katara and your Aang,' I said as I heard Aang asking to go penguin sledding with him.

'Yeah, WHAT is that thing?' Sokka yelled.

'That's Appa my flying bison,' Aang answered.

'Right, this is Katara my flying sister,' Sokka said. Then suddenly Aang sneezed and flew 3 meters (10 feet for you Americans coz I'm Australian if you read my profile).

'Yeah, sure am well if you guys are stuck Appa and I could give you one,' Aang asked

'We'd love one, thanks,' Katara said.

'Yeah, think I'm gonna need one as well since I have no idea where I'm going,' I said.

'Sure you can hop on as well,' Aang said. 'Yip, yip Appa.' Appa jumped and landed in the water.

'I'm sure he's just tired,' I said hopefully and sat back and relaxed.

(Belle's P.O.V)

I'm going to bed now after that brilliant party. You two should too a man and women need their sleep. Belle, one more thing I need to ask you why do you have a bandage on your hand.' Iroh asked.

'Ummm…Well….You see,' I stammered.

'It was my fault,' Zuko said sheepishly. 'I got angry and burned her. Like you said I should learn to control my anger.'

'Let me see it,' Iroh asked. I extended my arm and he pulled up the sleeve of my new

Fire nation jumper, tank top and 3 quarter pants and started unwrapping the bandages and stopped and stared when he saw my hand. It was all blistered and red and peeling.

'We better get you to the hospital wing quickly,' Iroh said.

'Why?' as I began panicking.

'Better safe than sorry,' said Iroh as we took me to the hospital wing.

(James' P.O.V.)

Katara and Sokka brought Aangand I to the village.

Aang, James meet the entire village, entire village meet Aang and James,' Katara introduced. But the entire village stepped away.

'What's wrong,' Aang asked but I already knew.

'We haven't seen an airbender in a hundred years,' said Katara's grandmother said.

'What's this?' As Sokka grabbed Aang's airbending staff. 'You can't stab anything with this.' As I stifled a laugh.

'It's not for stabbing it's for airbending,' as he opened it up and flew around to the awe of the village people. Then I noticed I was freezing.

'You wouldn't happen to have any warm clothes would you?' I asked Katara

'Sure, you must be freezing. I'm sure Sokka wouldn't mind lending you some of his clothes,' Katara said leading me into her and Sokka's tent and gave me some blue clothes and left for me to get changed.

(Belle's P.O.V.)

'Do it again! Firebending comes from the breath not the muscles,' Iroh was lecturing Zuko about firebending while I was on the side watching.

'Show me the next set. I'm more than ready,' Zuko said impatiently.

'You know you seem a little impatient,' I said.

'Can you bend?' Zuko asked. I shrugged.

'I don't know. Can I try?' I asked excitedly and wince as I lent on my burnt hand. 'So what do I do like kick.' Zuko shrugged I took that as a yes and kicked back but then became unbalanced and fell straight on my arse but as I was falling I noticed a red flame come out of the end of my foot.

'Oh my God, I'm a firebender,' I said disappointedly. 'But my brother was right one kick and I'm on my arse.' At that I started laughing.

'Now can I practise the next set the Avatar has had 100 years to master all 4 elements I'm going to need more than basics,' Zuko back patronizing his Uncle again.

'Fine but after I finished my roast duck and I will talk to you about beginning your firebending training,' at that he began wolfing down his roast duck.

(James P.O.V.)

I came out of the tent with a warm blue parka on.

'Hey, Sokka where's Aang and Katara?' I asked Sokka.

'I was teaching a warrior's class the kid screamed, PENGUIN and him and Katara ra- Are you wearing my clothes!' Sokka exclaimed.

'Um yeah, Katara said I could,' I told him.

'Well I say you can't!' Sokka said. Then a blinding light rose up into the air.

'That's a Fire Nation flare! Fire Benders are coming!' I yelled. Sokka looked at me with an expression of horror on his face.

(Belle's P.O.V.)

'Quite agile for his old age,' muttered Zuko staring out of his telescope.

'Hey what are you looking at?' snatching the telescope from him and peering into it. I saw Aang jumping from the deck of the ship to the snow with Katara into his arms.

'Wake up my Uncle, I've found the Avatar and his hiding place,' Zuko barked at one of the guards. I stared back into the telescope.

'Oh no.'

This is my first fanfiction so don't judge too hard. So its probably not that good.
