Hi guys, sorry for the wait. Im finally done with testing, but I have much more things to do. My friend is setting up a Haunted House for Halloween, and she wats me to help. So I give you this chapter hope you like it. It took me about a week and a half, anyways I don't own Avatar The Last Airbender.

I was gathering sticks for the campfire, when I heard shouting coming from camp. I walked out of the woods to see Katara and Sokka yelling at each other. I walked over toward them.

" Besides the tarp makes a pretty nice blanket." Sokka stated.

" But what if I does rain?" Katara said.

" But what if it doesn't, then I would of put the tarp up for nothing?"

" You're infuriating!"

" Wow, somehow has a big vocabulary." I said smiling.

I earned a glare from Katara and a chuckle from Sokka.

" Katara, why don't you worry about the fire, cause that kindling looking pretty sorry."

I looked over at Katara, she had a fair amount of sticks, compared to the amount I got. I only had two.

" Well, if you don't like my firewood!" She said throwing the sticks at him.

I jumped a little. Katara was scary as hell when she is mad.

" If your not going to your job, then I'm not going to do mine!" Sokka yelled. He pulled the string to the tent and it fell apart.

" Don't worry its ok, I didn't plan on sleeping in a tent or having a nice warm fire either." I said quietly.

Katara and Sokka where having a glaring contest, when Aang cam over.

" Ok, I got the grub if you guys got the…hey where's the campfire and what happened to the tent?" Aang asked.

" Why don't you ask those two."? I said pointing to Sokka and Katara who were now turned away from each other.

I just stood their looking at Sokka and Katara. Jet and me never had fights like these, sure we had fights, but over small things like this.

" Ok guys, harsh words wont solve any problems. Action will. Why don't you just switch jobs."? Aang said. Katara and Sokka went and did the other persons job. Since I was too lazy to do anything I just sat on a log and watched the show go on.

We were all siting by the fire chatting and eating the food Aang gathered. Sokka was in a bad mood because it was only fruit. The fire started to become low and it was becoming cold.

" Hey Alia, do you think you could shoot some fire to make it bigger!" Aang said.

My eyes went big, only Aang knew I was fire bender. An awkward silence fell over the campfire. I shot a look at Aang and I think he realized that I didn't want anyone one to know. Then Sokka started laughing.

" Hahaha, oh good one there Aang, like Alia could be firenation, especially a fire bender!" Sokka said walking over to me and placing a hand on my shoulder.

Another awkward silence fell over us, and then Sokka got the clue.

" Wait a minute, you're a fire bender!" He said jumping back. He drew his boomerang. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Even Katara got into a defensive position. Hearing the commotion, Pan came over and started to hiss and bare her fangs. Then Momo started to growl. This did not look good.

I glanced over to Aang and mouthed help me.

" Wait you guys! I didn't mean it that way. Alia I'm sorry, I thought you might of told them."

" Wait Aang you knew." Katara said.

He nodded in response. Katara and Sokka looked at each other. Katara sat normal again, while Sokka was still holding his boomerang. I reached over, picked up Pan and started to calm her down by stroking her. It seemed to calm Momo down to.

" How is that possible, you're a waterbender? And Jet, he hates fire bender." Katara asked.

" Well, ya he does. But I'm his sister or at least I thought I was. My dad was a firenation soldier and my mom was a waterbender in the earth kingdom. They loved each other and moved to a earth kingdom village and lived there." I said quickly.

" Then why can't Jet water or fire bend? Why only you?" Sokka said getting closer to me. I was scared for my life. I looked into Sokkas eyes. He lost someone to the firenation. I could tell by the anger and sadness. I've seen it in many kids that the Freedom Fighters had. I even saw it in Jet once.

" Answer me!" he barked.

" I don't know, maybe I'm special." He was about to say something else when Katara came over and hugged me. As much as I wanted to push her off I couldn't. I wasn't going to cry, I wasn't going to yell.

I stood up and turned around.

" I need sometime to myself for awhile." I said walking towards the woods.

" Alia I'm sorry." I heard Aang say behind me. I guessed they all understood, not even Pan followed me. It was me, myself and I. I kept walking and walking and walking. I didn't stop. I got to a clearing. I realized that I was on a hill; I walked over and knelt down on the ground. I looked up at the moon; it was big and beautiful tonight. I kept staring, my lip started to tremble and I cried and cried and cried.

When I woke up, I didn't know where I was. Then I remembered what happened last night. After a couple of minutes, I walked into camp rubbing my eyes. I saw everyone packing up, we were moving again.

As I walked no one seemed to pay attention to me. I was fine with that. I saw Pan and walked over to her. I knelt down, and then started to run my fingers into her fur, pulling off the dead hair.

Katara was the first one to come over to me.

" Hey, I made breakfast earlier, do you want any? It's going to be a long time till we eat again."

" No thanks." I said below a whisper.

She walked away. When everything was packed up, I started to climb into Appas saddle.

" We're walking, for now." Sokka said.

I looked over the saddle. And saw him standing there glaring up at me.

" Well while you walk, I'll be up here. And if you have a problem, don't come crying to me." I said.

He gave me a bewildered looked, and when he was about to say something else when Aang interrupted him.

" Lets get a move on people! It's going to be a long day!" Aang shouted as he jumped onto the bison's head. Katara climbed up and sat next to me. And without a choice, Sokka climbed onto Appa also grumbling about how we were suppose to be walking.

Sokka sat as far as he could away from me, while Katara was almost in my face. We started talking about girl things, like nothing bad happened.

" Here it is guys, The Great Divide!" Aang said triumphantly.

" Really no way, the great divide!" I said sarcastically.

" Yep."

" No really, what is the great divide?"

" It's the largest canyon in the entire world." Katara explained

" Well the, I guess we can see it very clearly from the air while we fly away." Sokka said pointing to the sky.

Then all of a sudden some guy dressed in fancy robes came pushing past Sokka.

" Hey if you're looking for the canyon guide, I was here first!" he said proudly.

" Well technically, we were here first, all you did was pushed past boomerang guy over there." I said, but no one paid attention.

" Ooo, canyon guide, sound informative." Katara said in awe.

" Again with the high-class words, what do have a personal dictionary in you brain?" I said sarcastically. Again I was ignored. 'What is wrong with people, am I invisible when it comes to being sarcastic?' I thought.

" Believe me, he is more than a tour guide. He is an earthbender and the only way out of the canyon if with his help." Fancy guy said. Sokka was behind him, making faces and acting like a jackass.

I turned to see a group of people stomping down the path. They didn't look kind, friendly or clean. I thought I could smell them all the way from here. Pan jumped onto my shoulder to get a better look.

" Is that your tribe?" Katara asked.

" Now what do you think Katara, do they look like mister fancy over there." I said pointing to the guy.

" They're most certainly not! That's the Zhang tribe, low life thieves; they've been the enemies of my tribe for a hundred years. Hey Zhangs, I'm saving a spot for my tribe, so don't even think about stealing it!"

Just then a large woman came over. " Where are the rest of the Gan Jins, still tiding up their campsite?" The lady said.

"Yes, but they sent me ahead to hold a spot."

" I didn't know the canyon guide took reservations."

" Of course he doesn't, that's the ignorance, I could expect from a messy Zhang!"

The Zhangs started to yell in protest, then the ground started to shake and a pile of rocks were Momo was sitting began rising into the air. When the rocks were gone, an old man that I assumed was the canyon guide appeared.

" Sorry about the wait youngsters. Who's ready to cross this canyon? " The canyon guide said smiling.

" One of them, I think." Katara said pointing to the Zhangs and Gan Jin.

Then the Gan Jin man came running up telling that he was first, but his tribe is coming.

" I cant take people who aren't here." Said the guide.

" Guess you guys will have to make the trip someother time." The Zhang said

Just then a group of people dressed like the Gan Jin man appeared. They were walking gracefully down the dirt road. The Zhangs turned around and looked at them in shock.

" Your not seriously going to cave into these spoiled brats, are you? We got sick people who need sheltering." The Zhang said.

" Well we have old people who are tired from traveling." The Gan Jin said.

I leaned over to Katara. " If they're tried of traveling, then shouldn't they not go into the canyon?" I asked her.

" You know Alia, you have a point." Katara replied.

The Gan Jins and Zhangs started to argue more and more.

" Aang, I think you should do something. A little Avatar peacemaking will come in handy right now." I said to Aang.

" I don't know, a fight over chores is one things, but these people have been enemies for a hundred years."

" Everyone listen up! This is the Avatar!" Katara said Pointing to Aang. " And if you give him a chance I'm sure he can come up with a compromise that will make everyone happy."

Everyone was now starring at Aang, waiting for him to say something's. I looked towards Aang and he looked at me. I mouthed to him to do something.

" Um, you can share the earth bender and travel together." Aang said nervously. He looked over to me for help.

The two tribes, started to argue again. This was getting really annoying.

" Alright people, here's the deal, your all going down together and Appa here will fly your sick and elderly across. Does that seem fair!" Aang yelled.

There was silence for a moment, then both tribes nodded to one another. I looked over to Aang and nodded in approval.

" Sorry Appa, you're going to have to make this trip on your own." Aang said rubbing the bison's head.

" Pan, why don't you go with Appa?" I said to my cat. She licked my hand telling me she understood and leaped onto Appa.

" Aang, this feuding tribe stuff is serious business, are you sure you want to get involved?" Sokka asked.

" To tell the truth, I'm not sure. But when have I ever been." Aang replied smiling.

Katara walked over to Aang and laid her hand on his shoulder. " He's the Avatar Sokka making peace between people is his job."

" His job is going to make us cross this whole thing on foot, isn't it?" Sokka stated.

" Well sacrifices have to be made, to make other things happen." I said.

" If you say so."

We were walking down the canyon, when my stomach started grumbling.

" I asked you this morning, do you want something to eat, then I asked you before we left, do you want something to eat. And what did you say?" Katara asked me in a motherly way.

" I said I didn't want anything." I replied.

" Ok everyone stand back." The guide said. He bended a rock and threw it at the wall.

" Why did you do that?" Aang asked.

" Well were trying to escape the firenation, aren't we." Replied the guide.

Then a huge spider like creature came from behind and grabbed the canyon guide.

" We got to help him!" Sokka yelled. He threw his boomerang at the creature. The creature through the guide to the ground and charged after Sokka.

" Now we got to help me!" Sokka said running. I loaded up one of my arrows and shot the creature in the mouth, it let out a cry of pain and charged at me. Katara came in front of me and whipped the creature. It turned to both of us and we ran. Aang shot a blast of air at it, and then it came back. This time Aang made a tornado and spun it around then slammed it up against the canyon wall, where it went into a crack and disappeared.

" What was that thing?" Aang asked.

" Canyon crawler and there sure to be more." The guide said.

" Your arms, they're broken." Katara said holding the guides arm.

This wasn't good. With out his earth bending were stuck down here together. Everyone stated freaking out. Then the Gan Jin leader blamed the Zhangs of bringing food down here. Another fight broke out.

" Enough, I thought that I could help you guys get along, I guess that's not going to happen!" Aang said. " We should split up. Gan Jins on this side Zhangs on the other. We'll travel in to separate lines."

" Sokka, you go with the Zhangs, Katara you go with the Gan Jins."

" What about me?" I asked.

" Go with who ever you want." Aang told me.

Great, who should I go with the pampered Gan Jins, or the messy Zhangs. Or maybe I should go with Aang.

I was sitting around the fire with the Zhangs.

I was listening to the Zhang women telling her the story of why the two tribes are enemies. I picked up bits and pieces, but I really didn't care.

" I'm sorry about lat night." Sokka said.

" What do you mean?" I asked, knowing exactly what he meant.

" How I freaked out, about you being a firebender. Its just that I lost my mom to the firenation."

" I lost my parents also, to the firenation when I was 6 years old."

" Its just that the firenation has done so much harm to the world."

" Before my mother died, she told me that not all firenation people are bad. Like some of the soldiers, they're forced to fight in the war, they're forced to kill innocent people."

" But why can't they say no."

" Maybe they're afraid. My dad did it. He left the war to be with my mom."

" If Jet hates firebenders and the firenation so much, why doesn't he hate you and your dad."?

" I don't know, maybe because we were family. "

A wave of silence washed over us. I told Sokka I was going to go to bed. I layed down on my blanket looking up at the stars, remembering when I use to do this with my parents and Jet.

" Katara, Sokka, Alia. Will these people collaberate long enough to get out of the canyon?"

" I don't think so Aang, the Zhangs really wronged the Gan Jins. They ambushed Jin Wei and stole the sacred orb." Said Katara.

" What are you talking about?" Aang asked.

" Ya Katara what are you talking about? Wei Jin didn't steal the sacred orb; he was returning it to their village gate. And was wrongfully punished by the Gan Jins." Sokka said.

" Sokka has a point, the Gan Jins did punish Wei Jin unfairly." I added.

" Well not punished enough, if you ask me." Katara said bitterly.

" Well we weren't asking you!" I snapped.

" Ok ok ok, I get it! Now I need your help, lets get everyone together at the base of the canyon wall." Aang said flying off.

When we got to the canyon wall, the Gan Jins and the Zhangs started another argument. It got really loud, really fast. Everyone was yelling including Katara and Sokka. I walked quickly over to where Aang was.

" You think you can get them to be quiet?" I asked. He nodded in agreement.

" Everybody focus! How many times do I have to say harsh words wont solve problem, action will!"

" Perhaps the Avatar is right." Said the Zhang.

" Perhaps he is." Said the Gan Jin.

Aang looked at the two of them with a sparkle in his eye.

" Harsh words will never solve our problems.," the lady said.

" Action will!" finished the old man.

" Um, Aang. I think they're taking your advice the wrong way." I told Aang. Just then, the Zhang and Gan Jin pulled out their weapons and started to fight. Aang jumped back, away from the two.

" Let this be the end to our rivalry." The old man said.

" You know what, I take it back. Harsh words aren't so bad." Aang said hurriedly.

" Its hard to take back words, once you said them." I said.

They started to fight each other. The Gan Jin cut the lady's hair off, and she cut half of his beard off. The fight continued, then Aang intervened by slamming his staff down onto the ground creating a gust of wind. The food that we smuggled came undone.

" Is that food? Everyone smuggled food down here! Unbelievable! You guys put our lives in danger because you couldn't go a day with out a snack! You are all…UNBELIEVABLE" Aang yelled.

I felt bad, we all had food, we all ate except Aang.

" Is that a Custer cream in that tart?" Aang asked sadly.

Just then a group of Canyon Crawlers appeared, everyone ran for their lives, screaming and panicking. I ran with Sokka and Katara to hide behind a rock.

" That's a lot of canyon crawlers." Katara said.

" You think." I stated.

" We barely survived one." Sokka said.

" They're coming back for me! They got a taste, and they're coming back!" Said the guide backing away.

" Sokka wait, I don't care about this stupid feud, I just want to get out of here alive."

" Me to, I only took their side cause they fed me."

" I wasn't on anyone's side, I just wanted to get of this canyon."

I stayed behind the rocks, not wanting to get my self into any trouble. But when I saw someone being attacked by one of the monsters, I shot an arrow at it, the Crawler backed off, just enough time for the person to get away.

After a few minutes, this is useless. They were everywhere. Then I heard Aang speak.

" Everybody, follow what I do!" Aang yelled. He grabbed a piece of food and threw it at the creature and it came charging toward him. Before it got any closer, Aang put the bag he had onto its mouth and mounted it.

Everyone followed Aangs example. I didn't feel like touching the creature, but someone eventually helped me.

" Now follow me!" Aang said. He steered the creature up the canyon wall, and everyone followed. It felt weird ridding on something like this. Once we were out of the canyon, everyone jumped of the Canyon Crawlers.

Just when the Gan Jins and the Zhangs were making up, they started another fight.

" Wait a second, Jin Wei Wei Jin. I know those guys! Aang said.

I wanted to here this, Aang started to explain what really happened. I was amazed, but also a little confused. The story didn't add up, but the Gan Jins and the Zhangs seemed to buy it.

When Appa finally came, Pan jumped out of his saddle and ran to me.

" How was your trip?" I asked her quietly, making sure no one was around to see her talk.

" It was boring, they Zhangs and Gan Jins started a little argument, but it ended quickly." Pan replied.

" What do you mean?"

" I sort of got frustrated and started to speak, but they all thought it was from the sun. No big deal."

" You better be careful, I don't want someone to take you away." I told her, hugging her tightly.

" What was your trip like?" She asked me.

" O, you know same old same old. We solved the tribes problem."

" That's nice."

The two tribes agreed to go to the Capitol together. I wondered if they would have any more disagreements.

" That's some luck, you knew Wei Jin and Jin Wei." Sokka said smiling.

" You could call it luck, or you could call it lying." Aang said slyly.

" I knew it, your story didn't make any sense. You are so bad Aang." I said.

We started to laugh.

" Now where's that clustered tart, I'm starving." Aang said.

With Pan on my back, I climbed onto Appa and we flew away. As we flew away, I took one last look at The Great Divide. I hoped I could see it again someday.

And that ends our chapter, once again sorry for the long wait. I had to write a 4-paragraph essay on who I am. I also had a hard time writing this chapter because of the episode. I also want to say sorry for something else, in the beginning of the story Alias mother was a Firebender, well its wrong. Her mother is a waterbender and her dad was just a firenation soldier. I know it says different, but I'll try to change it. Please review and I hope to see you next time.
