Hey readers thank you for the reviews nic2mad, Nicky and corpsebridelover249. I'm sorry but the Gaang will not be in this chapter, most likely the next. And Sorry for not updating I had a boatload of assignments. Now the disclaimer.

I do not own Avatar the Last Airbender; I only own Alia and Pan.

An hour past and Jet and I were still walking through the damn forest. I know the forest like the back of my hand, but I was too tired to keep track of where we were going.

" Jet, are we there yet?"

I knew I sounded like a whiny brat. But wouldn't you after waking up before the sun, and going on a little shopping spree that almost gets you taken by the firenation. I think so.

" Almost, be patient."

I groaned in response. This was taking to long. I felt like I was going to pass out. And I was right. The next thing I knew I was falling to the ground then I saw Jets feet and then my world went black.

I woke up to see I was in my room. I sat up and saw Pan asleep on my bed. I could only of guessed that Jet carried me the rest of the way. I looked down; I was still in my clothes I had worn. Then Smeller Bee walked in.

" Hey Alia, your finally awake."

" Ya, hey Bee. What's up? "

" Nothing much. Thanks for the dagger, its great."

" You're welcome."

" Are you hungry. Jet said you would probably be."

" No." I lied. But my stomach gave me away.

" Well, your stomach says yes. C'mon, I think we have some food left over."

I slowly got out of bed and followed Smeller Bee outside. The sunlight blinded me for a moment, and then I regained my vision. We headed toward the makeshift kitchen. I kept saying high to the kids that passed by.

" Bee, where is Jet?"

" Oh ya, in his room. He also needs to talk to you."

" Oh joy." I replied sarcastically.

We soon reached the kitchen. As we walked in I could see there was still a little bit of food left. I walked over to the counter and started to pick up a few fruit. Then I felt fur brush against my leg. I looked down and saw Pan. She looked up me with begging eyes.

I took a piece of meat and gave it to her; she took it in her mouth and trotted off. I walked over to a table and began to eat. I guess Smeller Bee was still hungry cause she started taking some of my food. When it was all gone, we stood up and started walking to Jets room. I was very nervous and scared; I'm not scared of Jet. I'm just scared of what he has to say.

As we approached the door Smeller Bee gave me an uplifting smile before I went in. I smiled back. I pulled back the flap and entered.

"Jet?"

" Hey Alia, its great that you're awake. We need to talk."

I was getting really nervous now. His calm voice was irritating me. What was he going to say?

" Well I'm here now. What do you want to talk about"?

" First I would like a thank you for carrying you home, after you passed out. And second I thought about what happened earlier this morning, and I was treating you like a child."

This was unbelievable; Jet was actually apologizing and realizing that I'm not the helpless 6 years old I was 8 year ago.

" Ya thanks for carrying me home, so what have you been thinking about?"

" Remember the meeting we had last week about a troop of firenation soldier camped out in the woods."

" Ya, what about them."

" Smeller Bee, Longshot, The Duke, Pipsqueak, sneers and I thought of ambushing them tomorrow morning. And I though since you proved that you're somewhat of a good waterbender and fighter that we could use you on this mission."

I couldn't believe it. Jet was taking me on a mission, not the spy mission or liberating food mission. A real mission this was fantastic. I ran over to my brother and knocked him down.

" Oh Jet thank you thank you thank you! This means a lot to me!"

" You're welcome. Now I suggest that you practice your skills. We will be leaving at the break of dawn tomorrow. So you better be ready."

" I will. I wont let you down!"

" Ok, but can you get off of me please?"

" Oh right, sorry. Also can we bring Pan?"

" Sure."

I hugged him once more. Then ran out of his room and into Bee.

" Wow now! You must be in a good mood. What did he say?"

" I'm going on a mission with you guys tomorrow!"

" That's great."

" I'm going to practice waterbending. Bye!"

Before she could reply I was running down the halls screaming and shouting I was going on a mission.

(Smeller Bee's Pov.)

I saw Alia go in. I hope what ever Jet had to talk to her about was good. I was sitting there when I heard shouting and something fall to the floor. Got worried, I didn't know what happened. The shouting continued even this close I couldn't make it out.

Then it went quiet. I walked up to the door. Wrong move. Alia came running out and tackled me. She started explaining that she was going to go on the mission tomorrow. I was happy for her. Even though I was younger Jet was letting her participate in this.

" I'm going to practice my waterbending. Bye!" she said excitedly.

Before I could say bye she ran off screaming and shouting. I laughed to myself and shook my head. What a crazy girl she is. I got up and walked into Jets room.

" Hey Jet. Alia just told me what you told her."

" Ya, I know."

" It was very nice of you to do that."

" I just hope I did the right thing."

" You did, she is happy. Well I have to go now."

" Ok, tell the rest of the guys Alia is tagging along tomorrow."

" Ok, that's if they didn't here hear shout it first."

I walked out of Jets room smiling to myself. Tomorrow will be awesome.

(Alia Pov.)

I was standing near the river practicing my waterbending. I tried to do the water whip, but I kept whipping myself. It wasn't fair the only thing I could do was lift it up and twirl it around me.

I decided to give up and go back home. It was getting dark anyway.

I walked into my room and plopped down onto the bed. I looked over to see Bee sleeping. Pan came up to me and nuzzled into my chest. She was so warm. I pulled the blanket closer to my body and snuggled my head into the pillow. I thought about tomorrow.

It was going to be a good day. Just going to take out a few firenation soldiers that's all. Nothing out of the ordinary. I fell asleep dreaming about tomorrow; totally oblivious to whom I was going to meet.

That's all, folks. Tune in soon to see how Alias first real mission will go, and who will be the special person/people she meets. If you can guess who, then I'll give you 3 cookies and a glass of milk. Next chapter might be up bye tomorrow or Friday. Sometime in between then. It will be easier to write because all I have to do is follow the show from now on. Hope you enjoyed and remember Review. It makes me a happy girl and I might update faster.
