Sorry I didn't get this uploaded til now. The site would not let me. Anyway, here is the chapter I said I would have for you guys.

"General Bei Fong, I know you told everyone that you were not to be disturbed." The guard bowed before the blind earthbender.

Toph turned her sightless eyes onto him. "Then why are you?" She glared at the man.

"There is someone here that says it is most urgent that she speak with you. It's a young woman that calls herself Ursa." He bowed again.

The woman that walked in was not the old Fire Lady Ursa, but her daughter. "You may go now." She waved the guard away and slammed the door behind Azula. "Okay, what happened? From the way your heart is beating, something went really wrong."

Azula took a deep breath. "Arawn was hurt, bad. I have to get him to the North Pole, but I can not do it alone. He will die if we do not get him there soon." She stepped closer to Toph. "I know we have had our big differences in the past, but you have to help save him."

Toph knew she could not tell if Azula was lying or not. She had found that out on Day of Black Sun. "Honey, big differences doesn't even begin to cover what happened between us. I know Sugar Queen and Sparky are okay with you, and Jelisa has an understanding with you, but I am not the most forgiving person. Call it my element. I am stubborn like the earth I bend. I will help you get Sneaky to his wife, but this does not make us friends." She pointed at Azula to emphases her words.

The firebender took a step back from the earthbender. "I never said we had to be friends. I just have to help him. Besides, I need to get to the north anyway. I have to find someone there."

Toph stopped. The ex-princess' heart rate picked up. The earthbender snickered. "So, just who do you have to find? From the feel of your heartbeat now, I would say it was a crush."

Azula glared at the blind earthbender, but shook her head when she remembered no sight, no seeing the glare. "I thought we weren't friends."

Toph just continued to smile. "Just because I do not think of you as a friend, does not mean I can not pick on you. It is my right to pick on anyone that I deem worthy, and you Princess, has given me prime rights to pick on you."

The firebender rolled her eyes. "Whatever, now, we have to figure out a way to get Arawn to the North fast."

Toph walked toward the table in room and pulled a cord that was near the wall. "I will have the airship prepped and we can be underway in an hour. Your brother was kind enough to give it to me on loan. I have to get around somehow when Aang is away."

A servant walked in and bowed. "What can I do for you, my lady?"

"Have the captain prep the airship. I want to be underway in a hour." Toph began to pack her belongings. "And tell the children to come here."

The servant bowed to the General and backed out of the room. Azula turned to Toph. "So they made it here? Arawn said he got them out."

"Yeah, they showed up here yesterday. I sent a message to Zuko and Katara. They should have it within the day, unless the hawk gets lost in the vast waste up there. It's happened before." She placed her clothes in her traveling bag. "Oh, by the way. You might want to raid Katara's clothes that are here. You smell like blood and dirt. Dirt I don't mind, but the blood might freak a few people out. Her rooms are two doors down. I think there are some Fire Nation clothes in there, but you might want to wear her Water Tribe clothing. We are going up North. I assume you do not want anyone to know who you really are, considering you gave your mother's name. You might want to think of a better name. I don't want to have to choose for you." She smiled at the Fire Nation woman.

"Whatever." Azula waved her hand and walked out of the room.

Toph watched her through her Earthbending as she headed to Katara's room.

Two Days Later

Jelisa walked around the city, looking in the small shops. It had been many years since she had done it. It was one of the only things she missed about the place. She walked around for a few hours until she came to the coast. Water lapped the ice. The sound of the wave was calming. She smiled as she began to go through her different katas.

The water moved with her directing. It flowed around her and she streamed it into many forms. It felt good to bend the water of her home. The water here had a different feel to it that the waters of the Earth Kingdom or the Fire Nation. Here, it was pure, unpolluted. Blessed by the ocean spirit itself, the water was sweet and cold.

She streamed the water back into the vast body and started back toward the palace. The sun began it's decent into the horizon, and Yue could be seen slightly in the sky. "Good to see you, old friend." She greeted the old princess with a bow.

She looked at the horizon again and something caught her eye. It was small, but grew rapidly. An airship. She broke into a dead run to the large area outside of the city. Harper had the area made for the airships landing. It was easier for them to bring supplies to the frozen city than the warships.

She stood there waiting for the airship to make its final descent. Hoping for news on the children and her husband, she stood patiently as they touched down.

"It's too cold here." She heard the distinct voice of the master earthbender.

"Quit your belly aching and get out here, Toph." Jelisa called from the entrance.

Just then, she was tackled by three warm bodies, two warmer than the other. "Aunt Jelisa!"

The Water Tribe Princess laughed as the children rained hugs on her. "Malaya! Matthias! Marcus! You're alright! I am so sorry I left you." She hugged the three children back as she felt tears run down her cheeks.

"It's okay, Aunt Jelisa, Uncle Arawn got us out and got us back to my mom. The nice firebender helped too. She brought Uncle Arawn back when he got hurt." Marcus stood up. Malaya and Matthias did the same.

"Arawn got hurt?" She looked at the children. Dread filled her soul. "How bad is he?"

Malaya pushed the snow around with her boot. "He is sleeping, but he won't wake up. Aunt Toph told us to leave him alone until we got here to you and Mom."

Matthias looked at his sister. "Aunt Toph told us to not tell her that. She would be sad." He looked at Jelisa. "Are you sad, Aunt Jelisa?"

She couldn't form words. The one man she loved more than life itself, had been hurt, and from the way the children were looking, bad. She swallowed the lump in her throat. "Where is he?"

"Mom and the other woman are getting him." Marcus walked up an hugged Jelisa's leg. "You're here now. You'll make him better, right?"

"I can't, but I hope Katara can." She rubbed the boy's head.

She looked at the entrance of the airship as Azula appeared, wearing a blue Water Tribe parka. She was frowning and frowned harder when she saw Jelisa. "I didn't expect to see you here." The firebender walked down the ramp toward her.

Jelisa grabbed Azula by the collar of the parka and shook her. "What happened to my husband? Do not spare any detail or I swear, you will wish I left you in prison all those years ago." Her voice was like the ice she was standing on, cold and unyielding.

Azula pushed her back. "Not with the children here. I will tell you, I swear it, but your first concern should be to Arawn. Be lucky he is still alive. I had to shock him three times on the way here to keep his heart going. He is on the brink of death, Jelisa. Save your anger for the fight to come." She glared at her.

"I agree with Azula. Save it." Toph emerged from the airship, followed by two men carrying a stretcher. Arawn lay on it, pale as death.

Jelisa felt hot tears pour from her eyes. Her life lay as still as death, and she could not heal him. His only hope was Katara. She walked ahead of the group, head down. Tears steamed down her face as she lead them to the palace.

--

Katara sat with her husband in the dining hall. They were going over some documents that Zuko's advisers had sent him. She handed the one she just finished to Zuko, who signed his name to the bottom. "Your work is never done, is it?" She kissed his scarred cheek and began to read another one.

"My Lord and Lady, your presence has been requested in the main chamber. The Chief and Princess are waiting for you with some guests." The man bowed before the Fire Nation royalty.

"Thank you." Zuko stood up and offered his hand to his wife. She smiled as she took his warm hand.

"I wonder what they want? It must be important if they as sending someone after us." Katara walked next to Zuko as they headed to the throne room. "Usually Jelisa would have just barged in and told us to get a move on. Sometimes I think she likes being a princess. She can boss more people around, and get away with it."

Zuko laughed. "You know, I think you are right. She has been taking advantage of it."

They shared a laugh, but the laughter died as soon as they walked into the throne room. Jelisa sat in the middle of the room with Harper holding her as she cried. Arawn was laying under blankets, looking like death was on his shoulder.

Jelisa looked up, eyes red and swollen. "Katara, please, please save him."

Katara ran over to the airbender's side and pulled back the blankets. His chest was a multitude of different hues. Black, blue, purple, and red bruises covered him. She quickly bent some water into her hands. It glowed blue as she placed it upon his chest.

She felt the damage. His right lung had been punctured by the broken rib. She poured her energy onto healing the damage. It was so severe, she did not know how he survived the trip to them. His breathing was labored and there was blood pooling into his good lung. She reset the rib and healed the hole. She let the water fall from her hands and bended the blood out of his lung. The crimson fluid flowed from him mouth and she flung it on the floor.

"Jelisa, I have done all I can. The rest is up to him. The damage is healed, but he has lost a lot of blood." Katara looked at her fellow waterbender.

Jelisa just nodded and stood up. She nodded to the servants and they walked over and picked up the stretcher. Jelisa followed them out. Harper turned to Katara and Zuko. "Thank you. Do you think he will make it?"

Katara shook her head. "I don't know. The damage was severe, I know him. His will is strong. He may, but I fear if he doesn't, Jelisa will not either. The one can not survive without the other."

Harper shook his head. "I know. She truly loves him Has for a long time. If he does not make it, I know Jennasa will follow him to the spirit world. She has survived too much to lose him now." He looked at the Fire Lord and Lady. "I now need you to follow me. I have something to show you in the Spirit Oasis."

Zuko and Katara looked at each other, then shrugged. The followed the chief to the small round door that lead to the Oasis. He smiled as he blocked the door. "There are a few people waiting for you in here. They have traveled a good distance to be here with you." He pushed the door open and they all walked through.

"Mom! Dad!" Two children rushed the adults as they made their way into the Oasis. Katara began to cry as she gathered her daughter up in her arms.

"Malaya! Oh my goodness! I can not believe you are here and safe. I have to be dreaming." Katara hugged her daughter tightly.

"Mommy, you're not dreaming. We are here. Aunt Toph brought Uncle Arawn here for you to heal him. Did you heal him? Will he be okay?" Malaya looked into her mother's cerulean eyes.

"Oh baby, your uncle is resting now. We will need time to get better." She smiled at her husband and son. They were hugging as well.

Malaya wiggled out of her mother's arms. "Uncle Arawn got us away from the bad men, but he needed help. A nice female firebender helped him." She walked over to Azula and took her by the hand. "She helped us, then brought Uncle back when he was hurt."

Zuko smiled at his sister. "So, you didn't tell them, did you sis?"

Matthias looked from his dad to the woman. "Daddy, do you know her?"

Zuko laughed. "Yeah, I know her. Matthias, Malaya, this is your Aunt Azula. She is my sister."

Malaya looked up at Azula, eyes wide and shining. "You're a princess like me?"

Azula looked down at the young princess. "Something like that, Malaya." She then looked at her brother. "I have news for you, but we can talk about that later. You need to spend time with your children. When they go to sleep, we will talk."

Zuko nodded and looked at Katara. "Where is Haru?"

--

Arawn felt himself swimming in a sea of darkness. Here he did not feel anything. No pain, no sorrow, nothing. He would have stayed there forever, but a sound caught his ear. A woman sobbing. The cries were familiar, but he could not place them. His mind was fuzzy, so the memories would not come.

He closed his eyes and smiled. He was calm and happy, but something was missing. Someone wasn't there with him. Jelisa.

His eyes flew open. The sobs. They were Jelisa's. He remembered them from when she thought no one could hear her, she would cry. Cry for everything she had lost. He knew he could not stay in the calming water forever. He began to swim towards the surface of his mind.

There was two things he could recall when he made it to the surface. One, it was damn cold, and two, the light was bright. He shut his eyes tighter, and tried to pull the blankets up, but his arms would not work. He cracked open his eyes and saw Jelisa laying next to him. She was asleep, but her brow was furrowed. She was troubled. He licked his dry lips. There was a slight coppery taste in his mouth, but he didn't think on it too hard.

"J." His voice cracked when he called to her.

Jelisa opened her eyes and stared into a pair of dove gray eyes. "Arawn?"

He smiled. "Hey." He licked his lips again.

She sat up and grinned down at him. Tears ran down her face. "I thought you would never wake up. I thought I lost you." She leaned down and hugged him gently.

He closed his eyes and soaked up her warm embrace. "You can't get rid of me that easily. I haven't made your life miserable yet."

She sat back up and laughed. "Then I guess I am stuck with you for the long haul. You could never make my life miserable."

He pulled his arm out from under the blankets. They finally worked for him as he placed a cupped hand on his wife's cheek. "I am glad for that, J, I truly am." He grabbed her arm, and using what little strength he had left, pulled her down next to him. "Stay with me."

She snuggled up next to his larger frame. "I'm not going anywhere."

Alright, I had to put something fluffy in there. Don't have much fluff in the story. The really ass kicking parts are coming up. I promise you that. Let me know what you think. I haven't had many reviews on the story. See ya!
