Dear mother,

how are you? Im doing fine. So much has happaned that I don't know where to begin. Well, its best I start from the beginning. It started that night, that it stormed...

A brown-haired girl was sitting up in her room with a wrench in her hand. She was wearing the princess outfit from Dark Cloud 2; she had an orb hair pin that kept her hair up in its dip pony-tail;her room wasn't like you would imagin a rich girl's room being. It had green hurtains, a white canopy bed, and a plan wood desk. A half-finished robot stood beside the desk; the open door to its insides wide open with wires poping out. Rain pelted down on the glass of her window; which the curtains were fully opend.A picture stood on her desk, of herself, her father, and her mother. Her mother was long gone, but she doesn't know where. Her father says that she left on buisness to a far away place, but he won't say anything more. The big mansion was so very quiet around this time; everyone was doing their own thing. Her father was buisy in his study, just above the piano area, where the parties are held; and Monica, the red-haird girl was buisy fixing a part for the robot. She heard a bang from downstairs, startled, she dropped her wrench and left her room, her father told her to stay on the second floor. Peering over the railing, their butler, Stewert, opend the door to two fire benders. A young boy, and an old man.

"Hello." The old man greeted kindly. "We are sorry to bother you, but our ship is being repaired; could we stay the night here?" Monica wanted to say they couldn't, but her father allowed it. They ended up staying in the guest bedroom right under Monica's room. She walked down the stairs, across the room, and up another flight to her father's study, and asked him why he agreed.

"They are firebenders father! Won't we be aiding the enemy if we-?"

"Hold your toung! Monica, if we don't; they could get Palm Brinks involved."

"Thats not our concern! Father..thats the mayor's concern.." But her father did not awncer. He just turned around and gave her the sign that she has to leave. Growling under her breath, she left her father's study area and went down stairs, and through some doors; where her grandmother rosa was currently at. They sat at the table infrount of a water-fall curtain, and played cards while sipping tea; thats what they loved to do on rainy nights like it was.

"Whats wrong dearie?" Her grandmother asked her. Sipping at her tea.

"Father let some firebenders in. He is aiding the enemy Grandma Rosa; why can't he see that?"

"Dearie. Please calm down, It isn't like Palm Brinks is even in the war, were not taking sides really, Thats why the Mayor closed off the doors to the town, and shut down the railroad..he cares about his residence."

"Then how did they get in? Those Rhynos! Of course! They are stronger than our doors if they head-butt hard enough!" Her grandmother smiled and swollowed a mouth full of tea.

"Your acting more like your mother every day. Are you still going to the circus tomarrow?" Monica nodded.

"I still have my ticket.."

I had no idea back then that going to that circus would be the worst thing I could have done. Grandmother said for me to try and make peace with the fire benders that had spent the night at our mansion. It was easier said than done. The boy, oh yeah. His name is Zuko. Was extreamly rude. The old man, Iroh, was very nice. They asked about my necklace, and I told them that it was yours mother. Zuko had a red choker under his armor; it was acutally black, with a red jewel.Foolishly, I mentioned my ticket to them, saying that father allowed me to go to the flotsom's circus the next day; Iroh instanly asked if Zuko could join me. I had only one ticket, so I couldn't really let him. Unfortunitly, our neighbor, Julia, gave up her ticket to me; saying that she couldn't attend. So I had to let Zuko come. I knew my night was ruined.He would be a pissy basturd all night and I wouldn't have any fun. I would be labled forever as the girl who brought a fire bender to the circus.

Monica got ready to go to the circus. It was bright that day,and clear that night. The fire benders had stayed longer becase of the circus; and said they'd leave in the morning. Monica put on some casual clothes, like her pumpkin shorts, which are actually baggy shorts with pockets and a brown color; and her shirt that I don't know how to discribe. She put on some brown socks then blue and white sneakers; and she was off. Zuko pretty much had to run to keep up with her; she didn't want to be close enough to him that people think she is walking with him, it is best he looks like he is following her.

"Wait!" He would call to her; but she would just reply,

"I can't be late. If were late, we won't get good seats.Hurry up." She fastend her pace from a fast walk, into a run. Within minutes, they had reached the square where a big, green and yellow tent was set up. A clown was taking tickets and admitting entrance, just as Zuko and Monica were giving their tickets to the clown to go in; a red-haired boy ran and stole monica's ticket. "You little basturd!" She and Zuko began to chase after the boy, asking people if they'd seen him. When they did find the boy, he gave her back her ticket.

"Im sorry." He began. "I just wanted to see the circus, just once." Monica sighed and smiled at him.

"Here." She handed him her ticket. "I'll catch it next time." a smile spread across the boy's face as he took the ticket back.

"wow. For real?Thank you lady!"

The boy ran off, Monica sighed and figured she'd go help Cedric in his shop while Zuko and the boy were at the circus. But the red haired boy turned around, and everything around Zuko and Monica went black. The ground was the same, but it looked gold, the boy stood there, smiling.

"You've passed the test! You two might be able to do it! Hurry! the first door is waiting!" Before either of them could make a move; the boy dissapeared in a blue blurr. Everything returned to normal within minutes, and the two gave their ticket to the clown and went in.

Just as Monica had said; they were in the very back. The crowd was so thick that they couldn't plow thier way though to see. Zuko spotted a ladder leading up.

"You really want to see it?" he asked her. She nodded and he showed her the ladder. They both climbed and got the best veiw. Monica heard someone talking from further down the balcony. She walked tword the voices, and Zuko followed. They found flotsom, the clown leader, talking to the mayor of Palm Brinks.

"I love this town's roasted chestnuts! They are the best!" He was gorging himself with roasted chestnuts; once that was done; he asked. "Have you found it yet? The blue stone?" Monica looked down at her blue pendant. Was that the stone that Flotsom ment?

"Not yet.We've turned the mines inside out looking, we don't think its here." Flotsom grew angry and smacked him across the face; Zuko and Monica's eyes widend as they witnessed what Flotsom thought no one had seen.

"You worm! I know its here! You don't want your little town to be involved in the war do you?"

"Oh god no! please no! Were looking!"

"Well you better look harder! Or Else-" Monica had thrown a can at him and missed. He turned his head to them, he saw Zuko glaring at her, mumbling.

"Nice shot." Sarcastically.

"Shut up!" Monica yelled back to him, Flotsom's eyes widend as he saw Monica's blue stone.

"The stone! Give it to me!" Monica refused.

"Hell no!" She grabbed Zuko's wrist and dragged him behind her as she made her escape.

"FOLLOW HER!" Then, all the clowns started attacking them. They were stuck between a tight rope, and the taste of a steel blade. Monica took in a deep breath, and told Zuko to follow her lead. She grabbed onto the rope, and told him to grab her legs. he felt quite awkward for doing so; but he did. She moved one of her hands and made them move across; She kept this up untill they were in the middle. She let her hand go to grab the rope again to move, when she felt the weight of Zuko's armor.

"Damn your heavy." She cursed at him. "I-I can't hold on." the audiance clapped, they thought it was part of the act.

"You can't let go!" Zuko barked at her, after seeing how far up they were. She couldn't grab onto the rope again, Zuko's armor weighed her down, like she was thrown into the lake with iron boots.

"I-I have to-" They hung there for a while, her grip with her hand already on the rope began to give way, But the one who really let go was Zuko; his grip on her legs wasn't as good as it should have been. She grabbed his hand and kept holding onto the rope with the other. "You tell me not to let go?"

"Shut up." Now they were really stuck. Monica used all of her strenght trying to keep her grip on both Zuko and the rope. That was hard when the clowns walked on the tight rope and began to cut it...
