Disclaimer: I really hate these things... I don't own the Avatar franchise :(


It had been three days since Leon had met Hara, and ironically it had been three days since Leon had paid any attention to Sorra, much to her disapointment. Sorra really hadn't even got much of a glimpse of Leon in the last three days, due to the early morning meetings and Sorra's late sleeping habbits, but today she was determined to get out of bed before the meeting's end. Walking down the stairs, she was relieved to find her fathers office door shut, confirming the meeting was still in process.

She took a seat on the couch outside of her dads office, and waited for around twenty minutes before the doored opend and men in ties and fancy suits began to exit. Leon stood out in the crowd of men, being by far the youngest, and sporting a simple, white v neck t-shirt, that blended with his hair

"Leon wait", Sorra exclaimed jumping off the couch and walking toward him.

"Oh hey Sorra", he said smiling slightly.

"Where have you been the last three days?", she asked, even though she already knew the answer.

"I've been hanging out with Hara for the past few days", Leon explained.

"Oh, ummmm so do you wanna like, do something today"?, she questioned hopefully.

"Yeah sure, Hara is busy anyway." "She says she has a suprise planned for me tomarrow", Leon informed

Sorra didn't like the idea of being his second choice and she deffinately didn't like the idea of Hara having a "suprise" for him but, she was happy to spend at least some time together after the last few days of him being absent.

"Okay, what you wanna do?", she questioned

"I could use some waterbending practice", Leon informed

"To say the least", Sorra joked, which only caused Leon to look at her frustratedly. She didn't understand how come ever time she tried to make Leon laugh he either looked at her oddly, ignored her completely, or half-heartedly smirked, but when she saw Hara and him talking, all he was doing was laughing.

"Well, shall we get started?", Sorra added to break the akward silence. "I have a pool out back", she informed.

"Okay", Leon agreed, turning to follow her through the kitchen and out the back door, stoping short of the pool.

"Okay lets try something simple". "The original waterbender was the moon". "It pushes and pulls the tides. so thats what were going to do", Sorra informed.

"Okay" Leon said, taking a deep breath before jumping into his stance. He closed his eyes taking one last breath before opening them and thrusting his arms forward with all his force. Much to his disapointment and Sorra's hidden humor, the water did not even ripple.

"Okay, try again", Sorra demanded.

Leon was again to a deep breathe and thrusted his arms forward only for nonething to happen. "Ahhhhhhhhh", Leon cried out in frustration.

"Okay calm down you'll get", Sorra comforted him, walking over to him and placing her smooth hand on his back.

"You think so?", he asked with a broken spirit.

"I know so." "In fact I did a lilttle research, and it turns out the Avatar always struggles with one Element more than the others", Sorra explained

Leon just nodded his head, and walked a few steps away to a lawn chair and took seat. Sorra followed closely behind taking a seat next to him. "So Leon, I've been wanting to talk to you about something."

"What?", Leon questioned.

"Well, ummmm whats going on between you and Hara?", Sorra asked nervously

"Honestly, I don't know." "I've never felt like this before, I really like her", Leon explained, smiling with glazed over eyes.

Sorra's heart fell into her stomache, and her face showed it. Leon noticed her disapointed look and decided to press her. "Whats wrong?"

"Nothing, it's just that", she paused trying to find the words, "It's just that I just got a bad feeling about her, she answered half truthfully, decideing to leave out the part of her crush on him.

"What do you mean bad feeling?", he questioned defensively.

"I don't know, I just have a feeling." "I can't explain it", she explained somberly.

"You've only met her once, for like five seconds." "How do you have any kind of feelings about her, you don't even know her?"

"Like you do, you just met her", Sorra exclaimed, now nearly yelling.

"You know, I thought you would be happy for me, I actually thought your my friend", He said now standing. "I guess I don't know you that well either", he said in a soft tone, but clearly angry.

"I'm am your friend, thats why I'm trying to tell you", she exclaimed loudly begging him to understand where she was coming from, but her words fell on deaf ears as he walked away through back door.

Sorra stood standing in the warm spring air alone on the verge of crying, "Why couldn't just tell him you like him?", she questioned herself. Collecting herself she marched into her stairs and into the kitchen where her mom was now standing.

"Mom I need advice", Sorra pouted to her mother.

"About?", her mom questioned.

"Telling a certain someone something, even though I don't know how they will react", Sorra expalined, well sort of

Sorra's mother knew who she was talking about, but decided not to use names. "Just tell the certai someone how you feel and them go from there", her mother said simple

Sorra, not satisfied with her mothers answer just sighed deeply and walked out of the kitchen up stairs to her room collapseing on her bed.


Leon had just finished his early morning workout and had jumped in the shower, getting ready for Hara to pick him up for his mysterious suprise within the next hour. He didn't know why, but his arguement with Sorra on the previous day had been weighing heavily on his mind. He regreted everything he had said to her, as soon as he turned to walk away, but what could he do now. "She probally hates me" he thought to himself, while getting out of the shower, but felt better instantly when he saw that Hara had texted him, letting him know she would be there soon.

Leon got dressed quickly, simply throwing on a black t-shirt and a greyish pear of pants, then heading to the lobby managing not to attract alot of attention, covering his hair with the hat Sorra had gotten for him. He walked out of the spinning doors of the lobby to find her leaning up against her red car. "Hey", he said, smiling warmly as he walked toward her.

"Hi", she exclaimed, wrapping her arms around him into a tight hug when he was in reach of her arms. "Ready to go?", she questioned

"Where are we going?", Leon asked trying to coax some information out of her.

"It's all apart of the suprise", she said smiling brightly. "Oh and you have to wear this", she exclaimed pulling a blind fold out of her back pocket.

"You expect me to wear this?", he questioned, taking the blind fold from her, looking at her oddly.

"Yes, because it want be a suprise if you know where were going", she said motioning for him to put the blind fold on.

"Ugh fine", Leon sighed defeated. "This better be worth it" he said eyeing her sternly.

"Oh it will, I promise, she said oddly smiling, which Leon caught, but shrugged it off. He wrapped the blind fold around his eyes and got in the car, which took off soon after.


Sorra laid in her bed upstairs. She had a serious headache, which probally was caused from the stress of the last few days. Getting out of bed, she walked down stairs seeing her mother sitting on the Living room couch watching telivision. Sorra sat down beside her mother looking quite humerous having her face squinted and her eyes shut tightly.

"What's wrong with you?", her mother asked looking at her daughter oddly

"I have a headache", Sorra explained with her hands over her temple.

"What, Leon?" her mom joked

"No, well yes, but an actual headache".

"Well, I think your dad has some headache medication in his office", Lunna Informed her daughter.

"Okay", Sorra mumbled, getting off the couch and walked into the kitchen, pouring her a glass of water, before opening the door to her dad's office. She looked around for the medication, but when her eyes locked on an open file on her father's desk, the curiosity wouldn't allow her to turn away. She began to scan over the file and suddenly her heart quit beating momentarally, and the glass in her hand fell to the ground shattering into a million peices. There, in the file was a photo of a Red Dragon general named Hanura, otherwise known as Hara to her and Leon.

She held her hand to her mouth, begining to reflect on what Leon had told her the day before, something about a suprise she had for him. Sorra put two and two together quickly, "Oh no Leon." She grabbed the file and rushed out of the room frantically to her mother. "Where's dad?", she exclaimed in a mode of panic.

"At city hall, why?", her mother asked, very confused

Sorra did not answer her question, she just turned running toward the front door.

"Where are you going her mother?", asked in a loud state of confusion

"To save Leon Sorra", yelled back, without turning around or stopping her mad dash for the door.

Before her mother could get and explanation Sorra was out the door.

She barely missed the mail box as she pulled out of the drive way frantically. Raceing through her neiborhood, she made it to the highway in no time, breaking ever traffic law known to man in the process. All she was worried about was saving Leon. Despite their argument, she was still his friend and she wasn't gonna let who knows what happen to him.

She pulled into the parking lot of city hall and took off. She ran as fast as she could, busting through the doors, attracting the attention of all eyes. Ignoring the stares, she rushed straight to her dad"s office, pushing the door open with an impressive amount of force.

He looked at her oddly, she was panting heavily, and holding a file labeld Red Dragon generals.

"Sorra, what are you doing here?", her father questioned, putting down thee pen he was signing documents with.

"We have to save Leon?", she said gasping for air in between words.

"Huh?"

Sorra flopped the file down on his desk, opend to a page showing the picture of the girl she knew as Hara. "He's with her", she informed, pointing down at the girl.

"That's Hanura, she is one of the leaders of the Red Dragons, why would he be with her?", The mayor questioned, still very confused.

"He ran into her at the mall, she called herself Hara". "It was all staged", Sorra realized in her mind.

"We have to warn him", the mayor stated, grabing his phone from his pocket, calling Leon only to get his answering machine. "No answer", her father said frustratedly.

"C,mon dad we have to go find him", Sorra pleaded.

"Calm down Sorra we can't just rush in, I have a good idea where their taking him and if I'm right then we are going to need a large task force and that will take some time to mobalize", her father explained.

"Please, hurry dad he neads me... I mean us", Sorra begged, now on the verge of crying from frustration.

"I'm calling Chief Han right now, just take a seat", her father said motion toward a chair.

Sorra reluctantly did as she was told. She didn't know if it frustared her more that she was right about the girl all along or that she felt powerless to help Leon.


"Are we almost there, we've been in here forever", Leon complained becoming bored.

"Yes, we'll be their in a couple of minutes", she replied.

Leon sat back in his seat, letting his mind wander until the car came to a stop. Leon was tempted to remove his blindfold, but kept to his promise and waited for her to walk around the car and let him out. She began escorting him with a hand to his back. Leon knew thay had passed through a door when he heard a suddle click behind him. He then felt her take away her hand from his back and then another door shut behind him. Leon realized he was moving up, giving him the impression he was in an elavator.

"You can take your blind fold off", he heard the girl call from somewhere in the distance, which he thought was very odd.

Leon removed the blindfold and look down seeing that he was hanging twenty feet in the air, contained by atitanium cage held up by a titanium cable, and was completely surrounded by Red Dragon Gang members on the ground.

He was confused but didn't ask any questions, because right then nothing matterd because he understood the situation enough to know he wasn't in a good position.

Every one on the ground was waiting on him to try to break free of his prison, so they were suprised when he simply but his hands in his pocket.

He glared down at the girl he knew as Hara with an expresion of pure anger. "You lied to me" he said with a calm voice shockingly.

"Awww, I didn't lie, I said I had a suprise for you, well suprise", she replied with a sinister smile on her face.

"Sorra was right about her and I shut her out", Leon mummbled to himself only increasing his anger. To make it even worse he cared for the girl he knew as Hara, he'd really thought she was something special, but in the end she had just played him for a fool.

"Awww, you don't wanna talk to me anymore", Hanura exclaimed in a mocking voice, which made the other gang members laugh.

Leon did not reply, he simply stood in deep thought, of how could he have been so idiotic.

"You should be proud of me", the girl continued from the floor it was a quite ingenius plan actually". "I simply had to follow you around for awhile then "accidentlly" bump in to you". "I knew I would be able win your trust, and then it was just a matter of getting you here". "We knew not even the Avatar could bend titanium", the girl said smiling evily as she talked.

The more she talked, the more the anger in Leon began to flare." Next it's going to be that little friend of yours", the girl laughed.

That was the final push to send Leon over the edge. They could threatin him all the wished, but they would not touch Sorra. She was the only friend he'd ever had even if she probally didn't wish to be around him at the moment, and he would protect her no matter what the cost.

Leon's eyes began to glow brightly, making everyone in the room take a few steps back, some second guessing their career choice.

All of them took their firebending stances, ready to blast him with enough heat to melt metal. They were suprised to see him not move a muscle, he just stood still, eyes glowing, showing off his great power, unfortionately for them his stillness didn't last long. A huge fire blast exploded from around Leon, destroying the cage.

At the same time, all the Gang members around him began to shoot there flames towrd him, which was easily defended by an air bubble, now surrounding Leon. Circulating winds with the strength of a hurricane was knocking lighter gang members off their feet.

By this time the task force had arrived at the gang's compound and some were watching through the window at the amazing dispaly of pure power.

"Cheif Han what do we do?", a deputy asked

"Theirs nothing we can do just wait and see what happens", he said, not taking his eyes away from the dazzaling demonstration of power.

Sorra was standing beside her father watching from one of the windows at the compound. She didn't know what was going on, or why Leon's eyes were glowing. "Dad, what's he doing?", she asked in amazement at the sight before her.

"He's in the Avatar state, we just have to wait until he calms down before we can enter", her father explained.

Back in side all hell had broken loose people were caught in his air current and being slung across the room as if they waere rag dolls, other were being slammed into the ground repeatedly by shadow bending tentacles. It was truly unbelievable. Suddenly Leon raised his arms droping everyone to the ground. They were relieved, the ones that could walk even began to stand, this however didn't last long. Leon made the slowing air current dissapear, sending him in free fall toward the ground. He twisted in mid air landing one foot on the ground with extreame power, sending waves of shatterd concrete in every direction, trapping every single gang member to a side of the surrounding wall, even outside the ground shook violently from his feirce impact.

Seeing he was now standing still, Chief Han motioned for all of his troops to go in, but to stay in clear of the Avatar.

Sorra ignoring the chief and common sense in general, rushed through the door.

"Sorra stop", her father demanded, but she ignored him completely, beating even the task force in. She ran to him, his eyes were still glowing brightly and he wasn't moving.

Sorra looked at him worried. "Leon", she softly said, taking his hand in her own. Upon the touch, Leon's leaned down head shot up. Sorra was terrified, but she didn't show it, she only pulled him close her wrapping her arms around him tightly and lying her head lightly on his shoulder. "Leon calm down", she wispered into his ear.

Leon's tense body began to loosen, and his glowing eyes began to fade. All the troops, the chief , even her father watched in amazment at the girls abillity to calm the teen down. Leons eyes fadded back to normal, and Sorra began to pull away to meet his eyes with her own. She released him from her grip. "Hey, good see you back", she softly said.

"Hey", was all Leon was able to mumble before his eyes rolled into the back of his head and he collapsed hard to ground before Sorra was able to ctach him.

Sorra bent down picking his head up from the ground and setting it in her lap. She screamed his name to no resault. Her father was screaming for medical personale from behind her, and Sorra wasbeing yanked away from the boy's half alive body by members of the task force, tears falling from her face frantically.

She watched from the distance as the teen was loaded onto a stretcher and carried to the back of truck, which drove off quickly.

"Do you think he will be okay dad?", She asked looking up at her father who was right beside her.

"I know he will", her father said looking down at her, smiling softly, even though he wasn't very sure himself.
