Aang, Toph and I stood there for a while before Aang spoke up.

"We have to give her some credit. She saw it way before any of us, although I doubt she would have objected to it."

Sokka barged in, "What I miss?"

I gave him the letter.

"What was she, some oracle or something?"

"She was just really good at reading people, that's all." I answered.

"What do we do now?" Aang asked.

"Katara has to translate the book as best she can. If she finds anything to bring up to Zuko about getting rid of these men and he agrees, then we have another war. If he dislikes it and is already too involved with the Gauls, then we will all have trials to fight. If there's nothing, someone has to go to Gaul and find something." Toph said.

"Trials? What do you mean by that?" I asked.

"Knowing Zuko, treason is the most likely charge you'll get. Sokka and Aang will get kicked out of the nation for not being citizens, and I will most likely get disowned and treason." Toph answered. She almost seemed like she was joking.

"That's pleasant." I said.

"If Katara has to go to Gaul, then I'll join her." Aang offered, "She'll need backup in case of anything going wrong."

"I was invited by Zuko and Leonard for dinner, so I'm going to join them." Sokka said. Toph also was going.

We all decided to meet again in about a week. Ty Lee and Suki were going to join us at that time. It was decided though that we could not meet in Ba Sing Sei. Toph would set up some excuse to take a vacation, and then we'd meet her at the vacation spot.

I decided to start reading the book from Aang. The book had many words I had no clue on what they meant. Although I couldn't let Cyrus know about the book, I tried to get words translated from him.

Since the last time we met, Aang traveled around the former Earth Kingdom enjoying his favorite places with Ty Lee. They had three sons in that time, which pretty much beats anything that I've done. He also went to the Southern Water Tribe to look for anyone just in case, but he never found anyone or the village.

"What are you reading?" Cyrus asked me in Gaul.

I quickly hid the book, "Just one of my books."

"No, it has to be one of my books. The cover was too colorful to be one of yours."

I didn't know how to get out of this one. He was going find out what I was doing and all of Aang's work would just sink into the ocean.

"It's not one of your books."

He stepped closer, "Can I look at it?"

"NO, I mean, it's private."

"Like the journal you've been writing in?"

"Th-this is the journal, and you can't look."

"Katara, you're so easy to read. I know about the book, and the Queen's plan about Leonard."

I was shocked, no stunned, wait I was both shocked and stunned. I didn't know how to react or what to say.

"You knew?"

"Oui."

"And you didn't tell anyone?"

"Oui, you would have been thrown in a jail cell already. That book is wanted by my King." He paused, "Katara, I've been meaning to tell you something that I would even risk ending my career as a sea captain to go through with. These past six months we've gotten to know each other very well. I had to do some research, but I made this, for you." Cyrus at this time was at an arm's reach, and in his hand was a necklace from the same material that any tribesmen would have made it from, "Katara, I haven't ask your brother for permission yet, but would you marry me?"

I was speechless. Nothing that I was told or thought about who'd I'd marry prepared me for this. The fortuneteller said I'd marry some powerful bender. Time seemed to stop. My mind seemed to travel to the moon and back before I answered.

"Of course." I responded.

"But who says 'of course' when they get proposed to?" I was in Toph's room the next day talking with her sitting on a sofa, which by the way was very plushy. I hadn't mentioned anything about the book or Cyrus knowing about the book.

"I think you're the only one." She was picking her nose on the opposite side of the room.

I slapped my forehead, "Maybe I was never meant to be in love."

"Sure, whatever."

"Are you listening to me, Toph?"

"Yep, whatever you say so."

"Sokka likes eating people." I was just messing with her.

"Good for you."

"Cyrus knows about the book." My smirk then turned into a frown. The nose-picking stopped

"Are you the world's biggest dumbass?"

Shit, she must have been paying attention at that moment.

"Before he proposed, he told me he knew about it." I frowned.

"Yeah well now I will have to kill him." She said, "Just kidding but seriously, we now have to watch him. You need to be with him every single moment you can."

"Even at night?"

"Yep. This is a different age Katara. It's not looked down upon anymore."

I'm sure I didn't even have a particular look to my face at that time. It was plain, no emotions at all.

"Katara?"

Blank mind, with no thoughts.

"Hey Katara, I think you dropped something."

"What?" I snapped out of the nothingness.

"You dropped something."

I looked down, "His necklace. I should probably put it on."

"And the Moon Spirit just died." Toph said.

"I'd be careful where you say that. Sokka will get angry."

"Oh, I'm so terrified. Sokka's going to be angry."

"I have to go. I was going to talk with Sokka about this before dinner."

"Hey Katara, I am glad for you. Zuko and I were placing bets on when you'd get married." She broke up in laughter.

"Thanks, I guess." I said sourly.

I left the room and headed towards the courtyard. Winter wasn't too far away, for I had to grab a jacket. Cyrus walked up to me with the book.

"Here are all the things you need to get rid of Leonard. It's all in there, the camp building and the actual killing of the benders, even the Fire Princess being there to stop Leonard from doing it." He said handing me the book. There were notes in the margins. He sounded sad though.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"Like I said before, I'd end my career as a ship captain for you. I sent a letter to the King about Leonard. He is to be arrested and sent home for killing the Northern Water Tribe."

"Thank you."

"But hold on, I have to go too, because I was there and I wrote this book and they want me as a witness. The carrier birds here are much faster than sailing, so I got word of it today."

"You wrote the book?"

"That's how I knew it wasn't yours or part of my collection. I made it special to it would be noticed. I told the Fire Princess what Leonard's thoughts were. She wrote the letter because she was afraid of what Leonard could do to her country, but I think she also knew her fate when Leonard killed the tribesmen. She would get the blame for it and her brother would kill her for Leonard's actions."

"So Azula was looking out for us then."

"Hell no. She scarred the shit out of me with her radical ideas. That bitch was too dedicated to winning the war."

We both cracked up laughing.

"Vous traître. Je devrais vous avoir tué quand vous avez commencé à flirter avec le sauvage."

"Leonard, Le roi veut votre arrestation. Vous devriez abandonner."

Everything went quickly. They both drew out their hand-cannons at each other, and both rang out with bangs. They were both on the ground. Zuko's Dai Li came running out, with Toph following. I think they planned to get Leonard here.

"Cyrus?" I stood over him looking for any wounds.

"I'm fine; I just fell to the ground."

I laughed out of pure joy that he wasn't hurt, but neither was Leonard. He pulled another hand-cannon at Toph and fired. Cyrus pulled me down. The Dai Li fired at Leonard, many of them hitting the Gaul. Neither would get back up.
