A Tarrina and Lomi Ka production

Chapter 1

It was time yet again for another one of Trina and Caroline's sleepovers. As all who knew them could already tell that it was going to be one of "those days" that they would be insane because of caffeine and sugar and that the next day would be even worse once lack of sleep was thrown in.

"Ok, so what do you want to do Caroline?" Trina asked her best friend.

"Well we could always watch my Avatar tapes."

"Yes! If all else fails watch Avatar! I haven't got a chance to freeload off anyone's cable to watch it in a long time so the last time I saw any episodes was when we watched your tapes last time you came over." Trina was now going practically insane with the prospect of getting to watch Avatar and especially about getting to stare at Zuko in the process.

"I'll get us some Mountain Dew!" Trina yelled from the back room.

"There they go already" Trina's father said, rolling his eyes, unimpressed by their enthusiasm.

Trina emerged with two 24 once bottles of Dew.

"Can't you two think of something better (and more mature) to do that watch that stupid crap all the time?" Trina's father asked trying to discourage their plans for the television.

Caroline and Trina looked at each other for a moment as if thinking.

It was Trina who first came back with the retort. "Number one Avatar is NOT stupid crap, and number two Avatar has taught us very important things like 'turns out clouds are made of water' and three," she looked at Caroline then together they practically yelled "NO!"

With that Caroline picked a tape and popped it into the VCR. The first episode that came on the tape was "The Storm".

"Caroline, why is this always the first thing that you put on. You know that despite my love of this episode how upsetting I find it." Trina asked jokingly, already knowing the answer.

"I like watching your reaction to the Agni Kai! HA!"

Trina made a sound that was kind of a cross between a whimper and a growl. It was at about that time they heard 'You will learn respect and suffering will be you teacher' come out of the TV. Trina promptly buried her face in a pillow.

"Oh come on Trina get a grip. You've seen this episode like a zillion times and you know that Zuko makes it."

"Hey don't be making fun of me! You'd be doing the same thing if that was Sokka whose face was going from original recipe to extra crispy."

"How could you ever suggest such a thing?" She said with her own face now buried in a pillow. "Leave Sokka out of this! But I guess you're right, I still think your reaction is funny though."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," Trina said in a tone of mock annoyance. "I say that for this I get to watch "Southern Air Temple" twice. That Agni Kai is much batter" She said with a grin.

Caroline started laughing and managed to get out "OH yeah you would think that" in between her laughter. "OK I guess we can do that if it would make poor little Trina feel better."

"Yes it would make poor little Trina feel better."

Some time later after having watched all the episodes

"Well that is seriously some good stuff," Trina said. "And every time I see those they seem to get better."

"I can't believe you two just watched all the episodes of that dumb show," Trina's father said as he walked into the room. "You two really need to get a life and get over that made up crap."

Two voices answered him with "SHUT UP!"

Later that night

By this time Caroline and Trina were laying in their beds but were not tired enough to go to sleep. So they talked about a bunch of random stuff.

"So have you had any interesting dreams lately, Caroline?"

"No, but let me guess, you've been dreaming about Zuko again. Haven't you? Be honest."

"Yeah maybe, but nothing that I really remember that much," Trina sounded saddened by the fact that she couldn't remember any recent dreams about Zuko (or more specifically about herself and Zuko after the marriage she had dreamed of previously.)

"Don't worry I know you'll dream about your happy family again eventually."

"Thanks Caroline that's exactly what I needed to hear," Trina said with a smile.

"I guess we better go to sleep because I have to leave early tomorrow," Caroline said. She had to leave early because she had a doctor's appointment that would take a while to get to.

"Goodnight"

"Goodnight"

Morning

Caroline was packing up her stuff so it would be ready when her dad came to pick her up.

Of course they did still have a little while so they had to find some way to amuse themselves. They briefly considered going outside but quickly abandoned the idea because it looked like there was a storm coming. Ever since Trina got indirectly struck by lightning there was not getting her outside when it was threatening to storm.

They decided to go online to see if they could find out any more about the upcoming new episodes that were coming up. They couldn't find any new info so they turned off the computer so it wouldn't get fried in the storm (that had now drawn much closer.)

It was now starting to get darker and it was starting to rain.

At about that time the storm started to really pick up. There was a lot of lightning and thunder, which meant Trina, was getting paranoid and was practically cowering behind Caroline.

It was then that her dad pulled into the drive way.

"Oh no you can't go out there even to just go to the car!" Trina cried "you'll get struck by lightning!" Trina was whimpering uncontrollably by now.

"No I won't. Just come out with me when I go to the car and you'll see. You need to get over your fear sometime," Caroline said reassuringly.

"If you say so. I really don't want to go outside but if you say I'll be OK if I go with you I trust you. I'll help you carry your stuff out. But I'm still not thrilled about going outside."

Trina and Caroline went upstairs to get Caroline's stuff. When they came back downstairs and looked out the window they saw that the storm was still getting worse.

"Are you sure we'll be OK," Trina asked yet again.

"Yes we'll be perfectly fine," Caroline said but at that point she was beginning to doubt that a bit herself (not that she was going to admit it, especially to Trina.

They had all the stuff gathered up and were outside with it putting it in the car when a very strange thing happened. They had just finished putting the Caroline's bags in the car and were giving each other a hug good bye when the bolt hit. A strange bolt of red lightning engulfed them. They sensation it caused was not pain as one would think would be indicted by a lightning strike, but more of a weird tingling. It seemed to last for quite a long time. They both felt as if they were being lifted off the ground. When the lightning finally was gone so were the two girls.

At that point they felt like they were flying at break neck speed. Strange psycadelic colors swirled around them. The two were still clinging to each other inside the lightning, but they were quickly loosing their grip on each other.

"I thought you said nothing bad was going to happen!" Trina yelled.

"I guess I was wrong!" Caroline yelled back.

With that they both finally lost their grips on each other. They tumbled away from each other and the lightning split into two distinct bolts.

With Trina

Trina felt herself falling and she knew there was nothing she could do to stop it; all she could do was wait for the end. But it was not the end. She did however hit the ground very hard (enough to break a few bones) and at that point the lightning caused a pain of its own. It was a great burning pain unlike any she had ever felt before.

Trina screamed a scream unlike any she had ever voiced before, filled with anguished pain. It could be heard for quite a distance but it didn't need to be because she had landed right in the middle of the hard metal deck of a Fire Nation ship, and not just any ship mind you this was Prince Zuko's vessel.

The lightning now quickly dissipated but its brightness left her blinded for a moment but it didn't really matter because before she had a chance to move she let out a weak moan and blacked out.

At this point the attention of the men was no longer on battling the storm but it was on her (not that she knew it).

"Some one get her below deck!" Iroh shouted above the storm. Everyone was still too stunned from her sudden appearance in the lightning bolt to move.

Iroh shouted again, this time to Zuko, "Take her below deck! If we leave her up here she'll be swept overboard!"

Zuko nodded and gathered Trina up in his arms and proceeded below deck. Trina woke for the briefest of seconds and felt that she was being carried. She opened her eyes to see who her savior was and could not believe that she was looking up at the scarred face of the Fire Nation's prince. She moaned again and passed out again thinking it was all because the lightning had scrambled her brain.

When he heard the girl moan Zuko looked down at the limp being in his arms. It was at this point that he noticed just how strangely she was dressed. She wore baggy, green cargo pants (they zip off at the knee) and a black shirt with Fire Nation insignia on it. As you can imagine her appearance was puzzling to the young bender.

He carried her to the infirmary and laid her on one of the cots and stood back and looked at her, he noticed her hair. He now saw how light her hair color was. Even though it was wet he had never seen hair that light and he couldn't help but wonder what color it would be when it was dry. He also noticed that she had it pulled back the same way he did in a high ponytail.

He knew that because of the storm he had to return to the deck and help the men so he turned to the ship's doctor and instructed him to take care of her an to inform him when she awoke or if any thing was needed. He had to stop a moment and look back at this strange girl one more time before he left the room.

With Caroline

While all this was happening to Trina, Caroline was going through a similar experience. Only instead of crashing into the hard metal of a ship's deck, she slammed into the muddy ground at the mouth of a cave. And it just so happened that the Avatar and his friends were seeking shelter from the storm in the cave.

Caroline's scream rent the wet stormy air and was just as pained as her best friend's. She also moaned and passed out like Trina had.

When they heard the scream Aang, Katara, and Sokka all ran to the cave entrance and saw Caroline lying on the muddy ground in the rain. Sokka quickly went out and picked her up and carried her back into the cave and laid her next to their small fire.

Katara used her water bending to get most of the mud off of Caroline. The more mud they cleaned off the girl the more strange things they started to notice.

She was dressed in a way that none of the three had ever seen before. Caroline had on blue jeans in a blue shirt with a Water Tribe symbol on it. The color of her hair was as strange to them as Trina's hair had been to Zuko. It was very similar in color to Trina's but it was slightly darker. Caroline's hair was much shorter than Trina's though. It was pulled back in a way that was not completely unlike Sokka's but it was not cropped short next to the skull on the sides, it was all the same length.

Now as intrigued as they were with Caroline's appearance they knew that they had to do something for her or she would grow ill. They added more wood to their small fire in an attempt to warm her up but seeing as she was soaked to the bone it wasn't really doing them any good to do this.

Katara realized that she had to get this girl out of her wet clothes or they would never get her warm enough to pull her through. She sent Aang and Sokka back further into the cave and began to peel away the wet clothing so she could redress this girl in some of her own clothes. When Katara revealed the skin beneath the wet clothes she saw large amounts of bruising from when she hit the ground. She didn't think that anything was broken so Katara quickly dressed Caroline in her own clothes. If the situation hadn't been so serious she would have laughed at the way the strange girl looked. The pants Katara had put on the girl only came down to her mid shins.

Now that Caroline had dry clothes on Katara decided to make use of Sokka's sleeping bag as well. Sokka began to protest went he returned but stopped because of the look that his sister gave him. Caroline was not beginning to get warmed up and she had stopped shivering.

Now if only things were going so well for Trina.
