Katy tapped her fingers on the keyboard eagerly, waiting for her best friend to respond.

She idly scrolled up, reading their conversation.

JojoMomo818: You're watching the finale right?

KattotheAvatard1993: Wouldn't miss it for the world. ;)

JojoMomo818: Am I the only one going, "What the hell?" at Ozai's airships? I mean come ON! Sokka and Co. didn't really have to do all that. Just steer the ship into him and BAM! No more Ozai.

KattotheAvatard1993: LOL, I know!

JojoMomo818: Back from commercial, ttyl

JojoMomo818: Wouldn't it be awesome if we were there? I bet we'd kick some butt.

KattotheAvatard1993: Did you see that? I can't believe Zuko did that for Katara! Wasn't that some awesome Zutara fluff?

JojoMomo818:Don't get your hopes up, Little Miss Crack-ship.

KattotheAvatard1993:Psh.It's totally cannon and you know it.

The finale was on, and Katy was practically screaming with happiness. She was a total aficionado of Avatar, as was her best friend Jordan.

"Ugh.C'Mon, Katara, heal Zuko!" Katy yelled at her TV. She had a habit of doing that, and it freaked out her cat.

PING!

Katy reached behind her and scrambled open her laptop, scanning for a response while trying to keep her eyes on the finale. 'I must look like a mental patient.' She thought as she read Jordan's response:

JojoMomo818: That's right, Azula.Barf fire all you want, you're going to an asylum.

Ha-ha.

A few minutes passed. "The End" showed on Katy's TV and she felt a prickle in her eyes.

"IT'S OVER!" Katy couldn't help it. She bawled like a baby, even though she was fourteen.

Another ping.

JojoMomo818: AHA! So Kataang isn't going to happen, huh?

DID YOU SEE THAT KISS?

Katy giggled and rolled her eyes.

KattotheAvatard1993: I'm going to go make some chicken and then go sleep.

Todeloo, Jordie.

JojoMomo818: Bye, Zutarian Queen. 3

Katy closed her laptop and skipped into the kitchen and made herself some chicken and pasta, with a lot of salt and two bottles of water. "I can feel my cholesterol going through the roof." She grumbled to herself.

Tired, she pushed the Book 1: Water disc in her DVD player, and flicked on the episodes, starting from the beginning.

Katy smiled as "The Great Divide" began. It was one of her favorites.

She spoke along with Katara during the opening sequence.

Suddenly, she walked up to the TV. Katy was unsure of what she was doing, but she still felt the urge to.

Katy pushed her hand onto the glass of the television. It seemingly melted away, letting Katy plunge down, and landed in the Avatar world.

From Katy's point of view:

I felt prickly pine needles break my fall.

"Yeouch!" I whispered as I struggled to free myself. Just then I heard Katara's voice.

"Well if you don't like my firewood…have it!" she screamed.

My eyes widened. I'd heard that so many times, and I was suddenly…there.

I tried to conceal my excitement as I dropped from the tree.

'Oh my, I'm in the Avatar verse!'

I strode forward, still holding a piece of chicken in my hand.

Katara and Sokka were exchanging insults.

"Hey, break it up." I said, then suddenly realized no matter how much I knew about them, they still had no idea who I was. And I was in a green tee shirt and jeans. Not exactly the best fashion choice for taking a journey into the world of the Gaang.

Sokka grabbed his boomerang and said, "Who are you?"

"I'm Katy." I said, smiling a slightly crooked smile. Sticking out my hand, I said, "And you are…?" even though I already knew.

"I'm Katara, and this is Aang, the Avatar." Katara said, smiling warmly. At least she didn't think I was going to Firebend them dead.

"Nice to meet you." I turned back to Sokka.

Aang spoke up before I opened my mouth. "That's Sokka, Katara's brother. He's always distrustful of everyone."

"Are you working for the Fire Nation?" Sokka questioned, staring at me suspiciously.

"I think I'd use a better disguise than…this." I gestured to my gray and green sneakers.

He put his boomerang away.

"She might be okay. But I'm still keeping an eye on her." He turned away, and I sat down on the crumpled heap of a tent and listened to Aang suggest they switch jobs, going back to the conversation as if I never came.

I heard Momo squeal and turned around.

Y'know, I never thought Appa was really that humongous. I gaped for a few seconds as he held down a melon while Momo struggled to pull it form the sky bison's strong grip.

"Let's go for now. I have something I want to show you guys!" Aang grinned.

We all followed.

A little while later, we were at the Great Divide. I almost said it looked like the Grand Canyon's fat grandmother, but stopped when I remembered I wasn't in the United States anymore. I really need to see if I have a memory problem.

A guy in a fancy kimono walked up to us briskly, with a mad expression on his face.

I tried to stifle a laugh as Sokka mocked his ranting.

When our guide bended the various rocks, I jumped back, shocked and awed.

Earthbending was so much more amazing in real life than how it was portrayed on TV.

"Wow." I muttered to myself.

"Huh?" Aang asked.

"Nothing." I giggled. I was too excited not to laugh or giggle, or smile at anything any canon characters said to me. I pinched myself super-hard. This was not a dream.

"Who's ready to cross this here canyon?" the guide said.

"Oh-ME! ME! ME!" I said, jumping from behind Aang.

The guide looked at me as if I was insane.

"Heh, sorry.I'm just excited." I blushed and stopped talking.

I watched the other tribe approach. Their clothes were beautifully ornate. I'm pretty content with my Toph cosplay outfit, though.

I looked around, slightly embarrassed. I was still getting weird looks form my clothes and hair, which was blonde-nothing seen in the Avatarverse.

I jumped back as Aang yelled.

"I didn't know such a loud sound could come out of such a small kid." I snorted a little at my own joke.

"This feuding tribe stuff is serious business. Are you sure it's a good idea getting involved in this?" Sokka said doubtfully.

"To tell the truth, I'm not sure. But when have I ever been?" Aang grinned.
"He's the Avatar, Sokka. Making peace between people is his job." Katara said proudly.

"Yeah.I agree with Katara." I said, determined to put my two cents in.

"His job's gonna make us cross this whole thing on foot, isn't it?" Sokka slumped in defeat.

"Pretty much." I looked down at the canyon. I needed a workout, anyway.

'It'll be worth it.' I told myself, 'What could be better than traveling with the Gaang?'

"…No food allowed in the canyon. It attracts dangerous predators."

I gasped and scarfed down the sliver of chicken I still had in my hand.Ew.

In a few minutes, we were going down into the canyon. I practically smashed myself against the rock wall, staying as far as I could form the edge- I HATE heights.

Suddenly, rock rained down the canyon wall.

Maybe because I'm scared of death, or maybe out of pure instinct-I screamed like a four-year-old. Sokka and Katara looked at me with annoyance as I fell onto the ground, head covered.

Then, it was all over. I had again forgotten I was with a highly skilled Earthbender.

I got up red with embarrassment, laughing it off.Sokka raised his eyebrows at me, and then continued walking.

As soon as our guide ruined the trail, I saw the spider-thing.

No matter how many times I've seen this episode, no matter how much I know we're getting out safely because it's cannon-NOTHING prepared me for the spidey monster.

So again, for the second time in ten minutes, I hollered.

Sokka turned to me and said, "Now as much as I'd like to tell you to stop that, I need to know if you can fight."

I was taken aback. "I-I guess I can."

"Good."

ROAR.

The monster reared its ugly head on Sokka.He began to run.

"Okay, now you gotta help me!"

I followed Katara up to the monster, quite a few paces behind.

"Jeez, I need to get used to this." I mumbled to myself, resting on my knees and panting.

When I stood up, I started climbing a nearby rock where I could catch my breath and decide how the hell I'd be able to fight a monster about quadruple my size without being able to bend.

Ugh.

I climbed down and heard Aang say that dramatic cliffhanger line, "So we're trapped in this canyon."

"No we're not. We'll find a way out." I said, re-joining the group. "I know it." I gave Aang a reassuring smile.

It faded quickly when the tribes began to argue again. I smacked my forehead and sighed.

"…we'll travel in two separate lines."

Gah! I'm going to screw up cannon.

"Sokka, you go with the Zhangs. And Katara, you go with the Gan Jins. See if you can figure out why they hate each other so much.And...Katy." He drew out my name, trying to get the hang of it. "You can camp with me."

I smiled. "Thanks." I was too tempted to steal a Gan Jin outfit, and the Zhang's leader scared me. Everyone's happy!

At twilight, everyone began to set up camp.Aang made it to the top of a cliff in four short jumps, but I took a little longer to scramble all the way up there.

"Sorry if I'm a bother or anything.Honestly, I'm not really sure how this happened. All I know is, I need to get a sleeping bag." I rooted around in my pockets for anything to trade with. "Hey! I found two bucks in quarters!" I smiled, surprised and glad they hadn't fallen out.

I got another weird look.

"I guess they could pass as silver pieces." I held one up. It glittered in the moonlight.

"Oooh." Aang said, his curiosity subsiding.

I handed three to him.

"Just in case we ever run out." I said. I slid the rest back in my pocket and lay down. I knew canon stuff was happening, and I didn't want to ruin that much of the story. I laughed softly, and fell asleep.

The next morning, Aang woke me up.

"Katy, we have to go. Katy!"

"Jeez, Lana, I'll be up in a minute." I tried to pull the covers over my head, but there weren't any.

I shot up, knowledge flooding back in my brain.

"I'm up.Sorry, I was still dreaming." I explained when Aang furrowed his eyebrows.

I almost fell down the cliff about six times. When we were finally down, the tribes and the Gaang (Me being a newly included member!) hiked through the canyon.

To save myself the trouble of my feet sweating even more then necessary, I walked alongside Katara and the Gan Jins was still a few steps behind, thinking how I was going to face my fear at the end of this episode.

During those loud yelling voices I slumped against the wall, not taking sides. I examined my clothes and re-tied my shoes.

I jumped at the sound of metal-on-metal.

"Not what Aang had in mind!" I squeaked, pointing upwards. "We still have to get up this thing!" But my cries were unheard in the fight that ensued.

At the sight of food, my stomach gurgled and cried.

I stood back up, hoping I could sneak a bite. But I held back and whimpered at the tremendous growl while Aang was idolizing some weird-sounding custard.

"Aang…?" I whimpered.

I panicked big time. I could barley move.

How the heck am I going to fight if I'm this much of a wimp?

I'm really going to have to man up.

A huge Canyon Crawler was coming towards me! I ran like the wind.

Hiding behind a rock, I caught my breath. A nice rock, the size of a dagger, and strong too.

I picked it up and examined it. The stone was light in my hand and had a beautiful desert-ish color. I grabbed it and shot out of my hideout, running towards anyone with a staff, boomerang, or water skin.

I watched Aang do his mouth-sack thing and found a young man to help me.

"Hold this food in front of the canyon crawler for me, please." He nodded and smiled as I took a food satchel and ran towards the nearest unoccupied monster.

All went well, and I am proud to saw I rode a Canyon Crawler.

But now was the hard part-the wall scaling.

I'm not so proud to say my scream echoed through the canyon as we rode up the wall.

I jumped off the thing as soon as I could, landing awkwardly and breathing hard.

"I'm aliveee!" I yelled towards the sky in that cliché way movie heroes do.

I got up and gaped, watching them leave.

I listened to the game Aang described, commiting it to memory so I could play it with Jordan and Lena.

Then a huge figure in the sky came closer and closer.

"APPA!" I yelled and smiled. He was always my one of my favorites.

I heard the conversation between the three.

"...Or you could call it lying!" Aang smiled mischievously.

I've heard it so many times, but seeing Aang act so out of character made me stare.

I laughed as he mentioned the custard again.

I really have to try that stuff.
