Katara had been trapped in the metal box for more than three days, she hasnt eaten or drank anything, her hope began to fade.
She could not do anything to get out of the metal box without water.
The container was big enough for Katara to stand up and walk around and it had a rectangular cut out on the door so she could see out side.
two men stood standing in front of the container at all times, she knew they were earth benders .
" Did the Earth King make you put me in here ? " Katara asked the men
One of the men turned around and went up to the cut out on the box . And looked at Katara.
" The Earth King told us to put you in here yes , now be quiet " the man said, he turned back around and stood next to the other man .
" Why would he put me in Republic City ? " Katara Implied
The man was now mad. And turned around again.
" You don't stop talking do you ? " he asked
" Not till i get answers " Katara smirked
" Okay ... since your soon to die anyways, What do you want to know?" he said
" Why did the Earth King Put me in Republic City ? "
" Because the earth king knew the Avatar would not look in Republic City, although his choice of location was a bit strange."
" Location ? " she asked
" Yes, he's put you in a mountain on the far left of Republic City "
" Hmm " She said looking down, a sudden pain came to her. The pain came from her wrists ... The Earth Cuffs were still on her wrists.
" Can you please take these off, they hurt " She asked nicely to the man
" No " He said in a slightly evil voice . He turned around again and stood next to the other man.
Aang hasn't talked to anyone in the time Katara was gone. He didn't show up to dinner, all he would do is sit out side.
Zuko went out side and sat next to Aang
" Aang get a grip, we'll find her okay, you're more depressed than Hakota and Sokka " Zuko said
" It's been 4 days, I can't sleep, I can't think, I can barely talk, and I can't even eat . " Aang replied
" Wow your finally gonna talk now ? " Zuko smiled
" I can stop talking if you'd like " Aang hissed
" Look Aang, I'm sure the Search parties will find her, we've sent people to look in the Earth kings Palace, in Omashu, in Gaoling, pretty much all over the world Aang, Even The Kyoshi Warriors, there down near the Serpents Pass, we'll find her " Zuko said, trying to reasure Aang
" You're right, but i wish there was someway I could help, no one wants me searching for some reason" Aang said
" How about me you and Toph go out on our own search party " Zuko said as Toph stepoed out side.
" You up for it Toph ? " Zuko asked
" Yeah, I just hope Sugar Queen is okay "
Everyone seemed depressed in one way or another .
Zuko, Toph, and Aang where heading out.
" Where do you want to start looking first Aang ? " Toph asked
" Well considering that they went out our window, they went North West " Aang said
" That's towards Republic City, well let's go " Zuko said as they three of them headed out on foot, but Aang had Appa follow them incase they didn't want to walk for a while.
On occasional times Aang and Toph would use Earth bending to see a trace of anything, a house, a cave, people walking.
They would inspect houses and caves, and asked travlers if they have seen any Earth benders or Katara.
They continued walking. it got dark fairly quick and Zuko used his firebending as a light source.
Aang began thinking about the Phantom's how they left shadows as they walked by, thinking about Katara, if she's okay. If Phantom's were hurting her. Aang then realized something
" Guys where asking the wrong questions "
" What do you mean? " Zuko implied
" No one has seen any earth benders because, you can't see them . We need to be asking if they've seen any shadows or random noises. "
" Your right twinkle-toes " Toph said as she yawned loudly.
" I think we should stop and get some sleep, we'll start searching again in the morning " Zuko said
They agreed and got out there sleeping bags from Appa .
Zuko and Toph fell asleep, but Aang was so worried about Katara he could not fall asleep, tears fell from Aangs cheeks . All he wanted was Katara right next to him.
Katara was also restless. Being cold in a metal container, having her hands cuffed behind her back and becoming starved didn't help either .
" Dont you guys ever sleep ? " She said with a weak voice, as she looked out of the rectagular cut in the door.
" No " The man said not turning to look at Katara.
Katara layed down on the metal floor thinking about Aang , hoping he would come soon, she couldn't last much longer .
