Chapter 3- Dreams into memories


Do you ever wonder why when you have such a good dream it just suddenly switches over to a memory or premonitions. Well this is what happened in Katara and Zuko's dream.

In the Dream…Katara is having a memory.

A little girl around the age of 7 or 8 was sitting outside of the large white mansion like house watching the cars go by. Unbeknownst to her a little boy and her brother around 8 or 9 were lurking around the house to scare her. As they rounded the corner they looked to see if she was there and she was gone!

"Sokka I thought you said she was on the stairs!" Zuko whispered harshly.

"Listen Prince, she was just there I saw her for real, for real." Sokka said poking Little Zuko in the chest earning him a glare.

As the boys were going to search for their missing prey a little voice spoke from behind them.

"Hey guys! What up!" Little Katara shouted scaring the two boy strait into the Kiddies' pool.

Zuko and Sokka were totally soaked. Zuko got out and stormed off to his house across the street yelling "Girls are crazy!" as the Chihiro kids watched him. Gran Gran turned to Katara and said " We need to have a talk young lady!" As she pulled the innocently pleading little girl inside, while Sokka, went up to his room to change and fix his "warrior's wolf tail".


About an hour later little Katara crossed the street to the big red bricked house like hers to go see her soggy friend. Usually she went around back but today she decided to ring the door bell. Ding- Dong! Ding-Dong!

The door swung open revealing a tear stained Azula.

"Hey, Azula-" Katara was cut short as a 5 year old Azula flung herself to her good friend. "Princess? What's wrong? What's going on?" The older girl asked pulling her friend to their favorite tree.

" Kana (powerful in Japanese), Daddy is drinking again… he beat mommy. I don't where she is…he's beating Zuko and he isn't fighting back. I scared for him help us."

(Katara turned roughly in her sleep.)

Just then, Ozai, Azula and Zuko's father came storming out of the house. He missed his daughter and friend as he got in the car and sped off, muttering something about finishing the job and finding these kids's good for nothing mother.

"Princess, I want you to go back to my house and stay with Gran Gran and Sokka. Stay there until me and your brother come back, ok." Katara said as she pushed her friend towards her house. Katara gulped in fear of what she would find in the house.

The 7 and a ½ year old knew her friend's house very well but since it was big just like hers she had a lot of places to look. As she entered the front doors she noticed that there were dents in the wall and vases had been knocked over. She climbed over the debris and passed the bar and noticed it was totally trashed. She continued looking for any sign of Zuko. She remembered the last time something like this happened after her and Sokka came home from the ice rink and decided to look where they had found them last time. She ran up to Azula's room.


FLASHBACK...

When this last occurred, Zuko had gone into Azula's room after their parents had started fighting. He and Azula were sitting on her bed playing a game to pass time when the failed to hear their dad shout for them.

"Azula…Zuko…!!!You get your sorry butts over here." Ozai said angrily.

That's when he stormed upstairs and busted through the door. Zuko and Azula jumped up in fear. Ozai walked menacingly towards his children. Zuko sensing trouble for him and his sibling moved in front of her to shield her from any harm.

"You silly, silly boy you are a weakling you cannot protect her." Ozai said as he saw he children cower before him.

"I know I can't but I can try." Zuko stated in a smart alec way, which he received a venom filled slap across the face for. Though he did flinch he did not fall he knew that if he cried out it would get worse, but because he did not fall this angered his father more. Ozai started beating Zuko repeatedly as he covered Azula from the blows. After he just left.

"Hey Zu, are you ok?" Azula asked with concern.

"Yeah, I'm good." He said trying not to sound in pain.


After Katara thought about that incident the fueled her to find her friend more. Katara ran up the spiral staircase and busted through the door of Azula's bedroom. As Katara looked around the girls room she found it trashed. She frantically looked around she saw a dark red trail of something on the pure white rug. She realized that it was blood. She ran over to where the trail leaded. There she found her battered friend unconscious on the floor covered in blood. She started panic she didn't know what to do, so she opened the window and saw Sokka and Azula outside on the porch talking.

"Sokka, Azula! Somebody help! Sokka go get Gran." The ice skater shouted as she saw Azula running towards her house.

"Kat what happened?- gasp- Omg! Zuko what did dad do to you."The naive little girl asked her brother when he didn't move or answer she start to shake him and cry. "Zuko, wake up! Don't leave me! I need you, I need you Zu! Please don't die!" The little girl screamed.

Katara had to something so she picked Azula up and locked her in the bathroom. When she went back to Zuko she checked his breathing it was shallow but it was there and she checked his pulse right when Gran Gran walked in with her cell and called 9-1-1. That night Katara, Sokka, Azula, and Gran Gran watched their friend and brother ride off to the hospital.

(Katara silently cried whilst she slept.)
