Me: Hi again people!

Gidget: Why are you making another one?

Me: Because I want to and since you got me grounded from the TV I have nothing else to do.

Disclaimer: I do not own and A: TLA or the show. Hey, haven't we been through this about 23 times?

A Dream

Sarah was the first to wake. She found herself chained high up on a wall. She wondered how long she had been hanging like that. Sarah looked around. She was in a cell with Zuko and Iroh her right and James on her left.

"So you're finally awake," came a sinister voice. Azula stepped out of the shadows in the cell.

"Azula," Sarah hissed.

"I want to know something. How can you be the Angel of Death if you're an airbender? The Angel is a firebender."

"Some things are for me to know and for you to never find out." Sarah replied.

"You probably found some rogue bender to teach you. How sad. You can't firebend without help. Why did you allow Jet to capture you?" Azula demanded.

"I have no idea what you're talking about. He beat me. He knocked me out. I didn't allow him to capture me." Sarah feigned innocence.

"Do play innocent with me. You're the Angel of Death, the Lady Avatar, and the Queen of the Air Nation. You've killed hundreds of soldiers. There's no way Jet, a non-bender, could have beaten you." Azula sneered.

"Alright, I faked it. Jet is too weak to even last three minutes fighting with me. Glad to know that you're not as stupid as your father." Sarah confessed.

"So I finally get some answers." Azula changed to topic. "You know, I always knew my mother wasn't from the Fire Nation. Just because she looked like she did doesn't mean she ever truly passed as a Fire Nation citizen." She turned to leave, "Oh, and just know you know, I drugged you and your companions. You've been out for a week. We should be arriving at the Fire Nation capital in two days." She was gone.

"We've got to get out of here." Sarah whispered to herself.

Katara, like the others, had also been drugged. Whenever he could Jet would caress her soft cheek. He would often plant a gentle kiss on her lips. He couldn't wait for her to wake up. Jet wanted her so badly.

Finally, not long after Sarah awoke, the effects of the drug began to wear off and Katara stirred. She was all alone in a room tied to a chair. It was good she was alone because if Jet was there he would have probably raped her. She tried to free herself but was unsuccessful.

"Where am I?" She asked herself.

Eventually Katara nodded off because the drugs weren't fully out of her system.

After several hours of trying to conjure a plan of escape Sarah slept naturally for the first time in a week. She had a very strange dream.

Dream

"Sarah! Open your eyes. I need to speak with you." Someone called to her.

Sarah kept her eyes firmly shut.

"Sarah, open your eyes!"

Some force was making Sarah reluctantly open her eyes. She wasn't in a cell anymore. She was lying on a couch. There was a table with a glass of tea on it in front of her and a young woman with flaming red hair sitting in the chair behind the table.

"You're Lady Avatar Flairese!" Sarah realized.

"Yes. Now, I need to talk to you. I should have done this long ago but I put it off. Sometimes I forget you're 116, not 16." The woman said.

"What do you mean?"

"I would never tell you what you need to know at 16. You'd be far too young. True that's when you find out you're the Lady Avatar or Avatar but I think that's way too early. Now, I know you have questions. Ask them." Flairese commanded.

"Why am I the fifth Lady Avatar?" Sarah blurted out.

"You need to finish what I didn't."

"But what is that?" Sarah pressed.

"You need to help Aang defeat Fire Lord Ozai and keep Princess Azula from inheriting the throne." Flairese told her.

"Why did James stay alive so long?"

"The Ring of Eternity knows when someone has a role to play. It can protect you when it feels the need but it can also let you be killed by someone. In a way the ring is alive," answered Flairese.

"Why me? Why Aang? Why am I the Lady Avatar and Aang the Avatar? Why us? Why not someone else?"

"I do not know the reason why you were chosen but you were. You must live with that."

"How can I be an airbender and a firebender?"

"You are a bi-bender. Once every few generations a bi-bender is born. They have the gift of two elements. Their life isn't always easy but they usually serve a great purpose. Many times a bi-bender helps an Avatar during their life." Flairese answered.

"Why wasn't I a firebender first?" Sarah asked.

"As the Heiress Apparent of the Air Nomads you were raised mainly by your mother while she was alive. Your father hardly ever used his firebending in front of you. If you had watched your father firebend as much as your sister you would have discovered you were a firebender first like Lizzie did."

"Lizzie was a firebender?"

"Yes, she was. She was also an airbender but she had yet to discover that." Flairese confirmed.

"I can't believe I never knew that Lizzie was a firebender. She never told me." Sarah wished her sister had told her.

"She didn't want anyone to know. She was afraid that your parents would send her to the Fire Nation. She wanted to tell you but she never got around to it."

"How do you know this and I don't?" Sarah inquired.

"After you spend 110 years with the spirit of a 5 year old girl she tends to tell you her secrets." Flairese answered.

"Where is Aang?" Sarah asked.

"He's following the ship, looking for you and Katara. They have a new companion named Toph. She is a blind earthbender. She's going to teach your brother."

"Am I going to be able to rebuild the Air Nation?"

"I can't answer that, but know this: We shape our own destinies. I could tell you that it is impossible to rebuild you nation but you might do it anyway. Or I could tell you that you can but you might not be able to. It all depends on what you do and what you're willing to sacrifice. If you go back to your home and rebuild everything you will probably give up your life. You will be forced to solve every problem with no help. There is no Air Council to give advice. On the other hand if you don't you will be turning your back on your heritage. You will no longer be a queen. The Air Nomads that are left who can't bend will be left without guidance. Even if you go back to rule them you will not receive help from other nations. You were not raised to grow your own food or work. Your people know this and have done everything they can to keep you from their lifestyle but they can't do that forever so you will be forced to live this way. You can't live on forever, even with the Ring of Eternity. The moment Ozai dies the Ring will let you begin to age slowly. It will be the same with James. When you die the airbenders will be extinct. No matter what you do you will suffer."

"Why do I have chose? Why do I have to suffer either way?" Sarah cried.

"That's the way the world works." Flairese hugged the crying girl.

"It's not fair. Isn't there a way for airbenders to be born even if their parents aren't benders?"

"Very rarely is there a bender born from two non-bender parents, but it does happen. Even then, usually at least one of the grandparents on each side has to have been a bender."

"I wish there were more airbenders. I hate that my people are a dying race." Sarah confessed.

"You've just answered you own question about rebuilding you nation. Are you willing to let them die?"

"How can I stop it? Aang and I are the last airbenders. There is no one to continue helping them once we die."

"I don't mean to get you hopes up dear but how do you know that you two are the last? Isn't it possible that other airbenders escaped their fate?"

Sarah thought about it.

After a few minutes Flairese spoke again. "Now my dear, it is time for you to leave. I can't keep you from the real world any longer."

Flairese and the room began to fade. Sarah called out, "Wait! Will I see you again? What if I have questions?"

"Look inside yourself. Most questions you can answer if you're willing to search. We will see each other again dear when the time is right. Remember what Ursa told Zuko. Never forget who you are." The voice was distant.

"Who am I?" Sarah yelled.

"You are the Air Queen. You are the Lady Avatar. You are your parents. You are Sarah. You are an airbender. You are you." The reply was barely above a whisper. Then the world turned black and disappeared before Sarah's tear-filled eyes.

"I am me." Sarah repeated to herself. She let the tears come and closed her eyes.

End Dream

When she woke up James was conscious.

"Sarah! Are you alright?" He exclaimed.

"I'm fine. James, we're on Azula's ship. Katara is with Jet and I have no idea how she is. I talked to Azula yesterday. We're going to be at the Fire Nation capital tomorrow."

"No! That's the last place we want to go." James hissed.

"James, in my dream, I talked to Lady Avatar Flairese. She gave me a lot of answers. She told me that my purpose was to help Aang destroy Ozai and keep Azula off the throne."

"Good because the only person who could be a worse ruler than Ozai is his daughter." Sarah laughed at James' comment.

"I'm serious Sarah. Even Ursa didn't like her."

"She's that bad? I knew she mean but I thought that she just had anger issues." Sarah had a hard time believing it. Ursa liked everyone. The mere thought of Ursa not liking her own child was mind-boggling.

James nodded.

"We have to wake Zuko and Iroh up. Then we need to find a way to escape." James agreed with Sarah.

Sarah sent an icy gust at Zuko and Iroh which woke them immediately.

"What was that for?" Zuko snapped.

"We needed to wake you up. Listen Zuko, Azula told me that we'll be arriving at the Fire Nation capital tomorrow." Sarah informed him.

"We have to get out of here. Wake up Katara." Zuko ordered. A dark shadow crept over Sarah's face.

Zuko looked around but didn't see the waterbender. "Sarah, where is Katara?"

"I don't know." Sarah murmured.

"We have to find here! Get me out of these things! I have to find Katara!" Zuko cried.

"Calm down Prince Zuko." Iroh said. "We'll find her."

Me: It's finished!

Gidget: Get over it.
