Chapter 1: Unexpected Visitor
Aang woke up. He heard a moan from above the temple; he saw a foot hanging off the cliff when he walked outside his room. "Katara, Sokka, Toph, wake up!! I think someone found us," Aang said as he knocked his or her door rooms. Zuko woke up on his own, even if Aang did not call him.
Katara walked out of her room, and asked, "What happened, Aang? Who found us? Firebender, Airbender, Waterbender, or Earthbender?" Her blue eyes glared at Zuko, as he walked out of his room.
Grumbling something about five minutes, Sokka tramped out of his room. Toph followed out, rubbing her pale green eyes. She growled, "What do you want?!
Aang pointed to the foot hanging off the cliff above the Western Air Temple. He got his glider and said, "I'll fly up and see who it is, if it's a Firebender, I'll yell, 'Water', if it's a friend, I'll tell you." He swooped out of the temple, and went out of the cliff.
Katara said, "How can anyone find us? It's almost impossible, unless someone told someone." She glared at Zuko, suspecting him of giving away their hideout.
Aang's head popped down from the cliff, as he shouted, "I think it's a Firebender, but she doesn't look okay. Appa, can you come here!!" The flying bison flew up the cliff, and a few moments later he came back, carrying Aang and another figure on his back. Carefully, Aang slid the figure off Appa's back.
Toph uttered, "She's unconscious, and very weak. Her breathing is too weak."
"She's wearing Fire Nation clothing, but other than that, I doubt she's a Firebender; the Fire Nation would not put a Firebender in chains," Zuko said, as he observed the girl. She had pale skin, black hair, and a thin figure. The girl looked around 16 or 15, and her breaths were short and quick. Blood dripped from her wounds, and her hands were bound by massive chains, either to prevent her bending or to prevent her from using her hands.
Toph said, "Let me get rid of the chains." Closing her eyes, Toph bended the metal, so the chains broke.
Katara suggested, "I'll try to heal her. Sokka, can you carry her to my room?" He groaned as he carried the girl to Katara's room.

The next morning, Kaara woke up, wondering why she felt something so soft beneath her. Getting up, Kaara opened her sea green eyes, and saw the ancient, stone room. Following her instinct, Kaara immediately jumped up from the bed, and bended water near the bed.
Katara jerked from the chair, and exclaimed, "You're awake!! And you're a Water bender!!" She smiled, and her smile disappeared, when she said, "You need to go back to bed, you're injuries still aren't completely healed!"
Realizing she wasn't in any danger, Kaara felt massive pains in her sides and her chest. She clutched her bandaged sides, and groaned, "What am I doing here?" Kaara fell to the floor, and her black hair covered her face.
The door opened, and Aang's, Sokka's, and Toph's heads appeared. Sokka asked, "Nobody told you about this place right?" Katara nudged him with her elbow into his gut.
Kaara said, calmly, "I don't even remember getting here." She got up, and held out her bandaged hand. "I'm Kaara, and thanks for helping me."
