I do not own the Avatar: The Last Air bender, but if I did it would show more of Zuko than Aang.

Zuko abruptly awoke as a wave splashed onto him. He coughed and tried to stand up on the raft, but couldn't. A storm came upon them so fast, that not even Iroh could sense it coming.

"Zuko! We must get out of the storm!" Iroh yelled to Zuko over the thunder.

"No fricken kidding!" Zuko yelled back. But before he could say anything else, a hundred foot wave approached them over their pathetic little raft.

Oh shit Zuko thought and the wave tumbled on them.

Zuko was trying to stay afloat. The raft was broken into small pieces, and he couldn't find Uncle.

"Uncle! Uncle! Where are you?" and he was pulled under again. This kept happening for a couple of minutes, until he spotted his uncle unconscious holding onto debris. Zuko swam over towards him, before his Uncle was about to be swept away.

Please don't die! Someone, any one HELP US! And sure enough he saw something similar, something that was fluffy and big…

Aang, Sokka, and Katara left the North Pole, just a few days ago when the hit the storm. Aang was trying to find land when he spotted something red, like a flare!

"Look!" Aang shouted, and the two siblings looked. Sokka frown grew, and said, "That's probably some crazy fire bender trying to capture us! Probably Zuko."

"Don't be stupid" said Katara, as she tried to shied Appa from the rain. "Zuko has a ship, which I don't see."

"I think it's a sign for help!" said Aang. "We have to help who ever it is or else they'll die in this storm!" and before Sokka could open his mouth and argue, Aang made Appa descend into the water.

When they got to be near 20 feet near the water, Appa decided himself to land in the water, instead of battling the winds. As it turned out, there were two people on the debris. They must be shipwrecked or something. Thought Aang so he froze a small little path towards the two people, while Katara was trying to keep the water around them steady. Aang then realized that one of the people was awake, and was even more

surprised to see that it was Zuko…

Zuko saw it was the Avatar that came to his aid. DAMIT! Every time that I have a chance to capture that brat, I can't either because I'm tied up, or some stupid weather or… is the only thing that can save my uncle. Zuko struggled with himself and decided to ask the Avatar for help. He hated it, because it made him feel like he was begging.

"Avatar!"

Aang looked at Zuko with weary, and the Southern Tribe boy was just glaring at him.

"Please! Take my Uncle! He's not going to last much longer. I don't want you to save me, but please save my Uncle!

"Yeah right!" Sokka yelled from Appa. Aang looked at the desperate Prince. The Prince who have been chasing them from day one looked tired, and pale. The old man looked like he really needed immediate help.

"Just take him, he's the only thing I got left…" said Zuko, and Aang nodded and took hold of Iroh. But before Aang could pull him out of the water, Zuko grabbed Aang by his collar. For a second, Aang was scared and angry at the same time that he was tricked, but all Zuko said was "Thank you Avatar…" and he went unconscious.
