Zuko touched the scar over his left eye, the consequence of an Agni Kai. Zuko became angered at his friend's request.

"Aang, you don't get the severity of what you're suggesting." Zuko now was yelling from remembering what Agni Kai's have brought to his life.

"AGNI KAI'S ARE A SERIOUS RITUAL. IT'S MEANT AS A LAST RESORT. THE PURPOSE OF AN AGNI KAI IS TO BURN… TO INFLICT PAIN AND SUFFERING TO THE OTHE PERSON! DO YOU REALLY WANT TO DO THIS. TO HURT YOUR FRIENDS! TO POSSIBLY HURT YOUSELF! AANG GET A HOLD OF YOURSLEF… THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!"Zuko calmed down a bit. "Remember Aang, we're your friends. Don't let ONE misunderstanding ruin it. You still don't even know the whole story. You're so damn stubborn you won't give me or Katara a chance!"

Katara had slipped outside during the argument and witnessed the ongoing conflict. She silently observed and began to tear up at the sight of her two friends fighting over a problem she caused.

Aang only stared at the ground soaking in the situation. His face was beaded with sweat and veins on his neck protruded out. He slowly lifted his head and stood up. Trying to size up to Zuko. He fumbled Zuko's words in his head as he stared into the twenty year old's eyes. Aang made one step forward and fired a fire blast out of his fist… than quickly collapsed to the ground. His limp body hit the ground with tremendous force.

Zuko immediately deflected the blast dissipating it into the air, he then tried to catch Aang from his fall but was too slow. Katar ran over to Zuko then to her collapsed boyfriend with tears welled up in her eyes.

"Take him to your room. I'm fine…I'll be right up!" Zuko commanded Katara as she took his limp body and brought it to their room… or her room now, since he moved his possessions.

Katara put him on the bed and placed her head on his chest. She realized he wasn't breathing she quickly called the others in. Aang was having an experience of his own as all of the commotion was arising.

Aang was suddenly in a place completely surrounded with darkness. His spirit gazed around him seeing no light.

"Hello Aang," A voice said as Aang turned around.

"Gyatsu? What are you doing here?"

"Maybe you should ask yourself that question." The ghostly image of Gyatsu spoke to him with his light tone of voice.

Aang contemplated and meditated at the event the just occurred, leading him to this visit.

He saw the vision of himself. Feeling so threatened and angry. Aang could barely recognize himself. He saw himself go into a fit of rage and threaten Zuko with pain and suffering. Then he saw what he feared. Aang attacked Zuko. Aang shut his eyes and let a single tear run down his face.

"How did I become this monster? To my own friends. I threatened them, I hurt them."

Gyatsu's ghost spoke, "Have you forgot the principles of being an Air Nomad Aang? When did we ever teach you to solve problems with fighting and violence? To anyone, and especially not your friends."

"I know Gyatsu. A complete rage filled my body. I was just so destroyed by the one I love, I couldn't see I was hurting everyone else in my wake."

"Love is a very powerful thing. It can build lives and tear them apart. Now you must return and do it is which we trained you for… to spread love and peace. After all you are the avatar. That is your duty."

Katara and the others loomed over Aang's apparently lifeless body. Suddenly he moved as he opened his mouth and gasped for air. His eyes flashed a bright light then returned to normal. Aang only saw fuzzy outlines of everyone hovering over until he passed out, drained of all energy.

Sokka ran and got him some water and placed it on the nightstand. Zuko put his hand on Katara, who was staring and crying over Aang's sleeping body.

"Are you alright, do you still need me here?" Zuko comfortably asked her.

Katara nodded her head no, "I'll stay with him and watch over him, Make sure he recovers."

Zuko nodded back then left the room. Katara gently stroked Aang's head lightly sobbing to herself. She kissed his forehead lightly feeling how hot it was on her lips. Aang opened his eyes slightly and saw the fuzzy shape of Katara. He began to speak.

"Katara … –" Then he passed out again before completing his sentence.

Katara only held him close to her and kissed his head.

"Rest Aang, just rest."
