The gang are at a lakeshore camping and just then a large green fish jumps out of the lake and back into the water.
"Look!" Katara said pointing at the green fish.
Sokka gets up and sees the large green fish which looks like a catfish jumping out of the lake again and back into the lake making Sokka annoyed.
"He is SO taunting us! You're gonna be dinner!" Sokka said as he grabs a fishing pole and starts casting it a few times but nothing happens. "Hey! Where's the fishing line?" Sokka said.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't think you'd need it." Lucy said as she's holding up a necklace.
"Aww, it's all tangled!" Sokka said.
"Not tangled, stupid. It's woven." Lucy said as she stands up. "Here, Katara. Since none of us found your mother's necklace, I figured I'd make one for you." Lucy said handing Katara the necklace.
"Thanks, Lucy. It's great." Katara said.
"Yeah. Great, Lucy. Maybe instead of fulfilling the prophecy and help Aang save the world, you could go into a jewelry making business." Sokka said sarcastically.
"I don't see why she can't do both." Aang said.
"Yep. I'm sure pretty she's good at them." Natsu said placing his arm around Lucy.
Sokka then sees the green fish jumping out of the water again and Sokka throws his pole but it misses and the fish goes back into the water making Sokka frustrated.
"Stop taunting me!" Sokka said as he takes out a knife and enters the water and lunges into the water with his knife trying to catch the fish.
"That's not how you catch a fish, Sokka!" Happy said as he flies into the water after Sokka.
"I thought cats hate water." Lucy said.
"When it comes to fish, he'll do anything stupid to get one." Gray said.
"Will you put some clothes on?" Erza asked.
"AAAAAHHHHH!" Gray screamed as he notices he's in his boxers again.
"So how do I look?" Katara asked and Lucy and Aang turn to Katara.
"You look complete." Lucy said smiling. "What do you think, Aang? Aang? Hello, Earth to Aang. Anyone home?" Lucy asked trying to get Aang's attention.
Aang is staring dumbfounded at Katara who is now wearing the necklace Lucy made for her and Katara has some embarrassment on her face and Aang pulls his collar as he's still staring at Katara.
"AANG!" Lucy yelled getting the Airbender's attention.
"Huh? What?" Aang asked.
"What do you think of Katara's new necklace?" Lucy asked.
"Oh, you mean all of her or just her neck? I mean, they both look great." Aang said and Sokka rises out of the lake and is holding the fish.
"Smoochy, smoochy. Someone's in love." Sokka said as he's making kissing impressions at the fish who flips in his hands and knocks Sokka back into the water but Happy catches it before it went back to the lake.
"Uh, well..." Aang stops talking in embarrassment as he rubs his head.
"Stop teasing him, Sokka." Lucy said annoyed at Sokka.
"Yeah. Aang's just a good friend. A sweet little guy just like Momo." Katara said rubbing Momo.
"Thanks." Aang said softly.
Happy flies to back to the gang with the green fish while Sokka comes to the gang as well soaking wet with an obvious sour look on his face.
"So should we..." Wendy was cut off by a loud noise.
"What was that?" Natsu asked as Aang Airbends himself onto a large rock nearby.
Aang looks around to see where the noise is coming from and he points at the source.
"Someone is being attacked by a platypus-bear!" Aang said.
"Did he just say platypus-bear?" Gray asked.
"Yep." Lucy said.
A platypus-bear is standing in front of a man in a blue outfit who's smiling and the platypus-bear swings its claws at the man but he steps backwards and the platypus-bear attacks again and while this is happening Aang is on a rock behind the platypus-bear and the man sees him.
"Well, hello there. Nice day isn't it?" The man asked as he dodges another attack from the platypus-bear.
"Make noise! It'll run off!" Aang said.
"No, play dead! It'll lose interest!" Sokka said.
The platypus-bear swings its attack at the man but he dodges again.
"Whoa! Close one." The man said.
"Ru downhill then climb a tree!" Lucy said.
"No punch him in the bill!" Sokka said.
"Then run in zigzags!" Aang said.
"Then grab it by the tail and slam it!" Gray said.
"There's no need. It's going to be fine." The mans said as the platypus-bear swings again but the man dodges making it swipe at a large chunk of wood.
Aang then jumps off the rock and lands between the man and the platypus-bear and then bends an air wall pushing the platypus-bear backwards.
"Whoa there!" Aang said and the platypus-bear roars at the Airbender but Appa roars behind it making the platypus-bear drop an egg, runs into the river and swims away.
"Hey look! An egg!" Natsu said and Sokka runs up to the egg.
"Mmm! Lunch! Lucky for you, we came along." Sokka said.
"Thank you, but everything was under control. There's no need to worry. Aunt Wu predicted I'd have a safe journey." The man said.
"Aunt who?" Wendy asked.
"No. Aunt WU. She's the fortuneteller from my village. Awful nice knowing your future." The man said.
"It must be." Katara said.
"That might explains why you were calm when that platypus-bear attacked you." Erza said.
"But the fortuneteller was wrong!" Sokka said.
"You didn't have a safe journey, you were almost killed!" Gray said.
"But I wasn't. Okay, have a good one." The man said as he walks away but stops. "Oh, and Aunt Wu told me if I met any travelers to give them this." The man said giving Lucy a long wrapped item and then walks away.
"Maybe we should go see this Aunt Wu and learn our fortunes. It'll be fun." Katara said.
"Oh, come on. Fortunetelling is nonsense." Sokka said.
"I'm with Sokka on this one." Gray said.
"What's the matter? Afraid your fortune's gonna be a bad one, Snowman?" Natsu asked.
"At least I think fortunetelling is stupid just like you, Ash-for Brains!" Gray said.
"Why you...! You wanna go right now?!" Natsu asked.
"Bring it, idiot!" Gray said.
"SHUT UP!" Erza shouted as she whacks both of them in their heads.
"Yes, ma'am." Natsu and Gray said at the same time while Lucy opens the wrapped object.
"Would you look at that. An umbrella." Lucy said as she opens it and the sky gets dark and rain starts to pour down.
"That proves it." Happy said as he, Aang, Natsu, Erza, Wendy, and Carla get into the umbrella.
"No it doesn't. You can't really tell the future." Sokka said as he's raising the egg over his head while Gray uses his Ice Magic to make his own umbrella.
"Then I guess you're not really getting wet then." Katara said as the egg slips from Sokka's hands and he tries to grab it but the egg lands back on his head.
"So much for your lunch." Lucy said.
The gang are walking down a road as the rain is still pouring down and Aang, Lucy, Katara, Natsu, Happy, Erza, Wendy, and Carla are still under the umbrella while Gray is still in his own ice umbrella while Sokka is getting wet.
"Of course she's predict it was gonna rain. The sky's been grey all day." Sokka said.
"Just admit that you and Gray might be wrong and you can come under the umbrella." Katara said.
"Look, I'm gonna predict the future now. 'It's going to keep drizzling.'" Sokka said and he crosses his arms making a smug look. "See?" Sokka said but then the rain stops and the sun comes out.
"Not everyone has a gift, Sokka." Aang said.
"Aye." Happy said and they keep moving.
Appa follows but as he passes Sokka and Gray the bison shakes off his wet fur but Gray blocks with his ice umbrella while Sokka is the one getting wet and later on the gang walk through a main gate of a village and enter the village square and while they are looking around the village they see a building with a man dressed in black which is a herald standing at the door.
"Aunt Wu is expecting you." The herald said.
"Really?" Katara asked while Gray and Sokka make disgusted sounds.
The gang enter the building and the herald closes the door behind them and as they are looking at the inside a girl with two braided pigtails and wearing a pink kimono enters the entryway.
"Hello. My name is Meng. I'm Aunt Wu's assistant." Meng said but then she sees Aang who doesn't have an enthusiastic expression and is hunched over and her eyes go wide and stares at him. "Well, hello there." Meng said.
"Hello." Aang said as he's rubbing his nose.
"Can I get you some tea or some of Aunt Wu's special bean curd puffs?" Meng offered as the gang sit in pillows on the ground.
"I'll have a bean curd puff." Sokka said but Meng ignores him.
"Just a second." Meng said as she bends down to Aang. "So what's your name?" Meng asked.
"Aang." Aang answered.
"That rhymes with Meng and you've got some pretty big ears, don't you?" Meng asked.
"I guess?" Aang said.
"Don't be modest. Their huge." Sokka said spreading his arms wide to show how big Aang's ears are.
"Says the giant-eared cretin himself." Lucy said making Natsu chuckle while Katara and Wendy giggle and Sokka crosses his arms.
"Well, it's very nice to meet you, Aang. Very nice." Meng said.
"Likewise." Aang said and Meng leaves.
"I can't believe we're here in the house of nonsense." Sokka said.
"And I can't believe we're gonna meet the woman of nonsense." Gray said.
"Try to keep an open mind, you two. There are things in the world that just can't be explained." Katraa said.
"Or in Fiore as well." Erza said.
"Yeah. Wouldn't it be nice to have some insight into your future?" Katara asked.
"It would be nice to have some bean curd puffs." Sokka said.
Meng then returns while holding a tray of snacks and an inner door opens behind Meng showing a woman in a green kimono and the woman rushes to Meng.
"Oh, Meng! Aunt Wu says I'm going to meet my true love! He's going to give me a rare panda lily." The woman said.
"That's so romantic. I wonder if MY true love will give me a rare flower." Meng said looking at Aang dreamily.
"Good luck with that." Aang said.
"Is that the big-eared boy whom Aunt Wu predicted you'd marry?" The woman asked amused but Meng walks away.
Meng walks over to the gang but her eyes are fixed on Aang and this causes her t trip and she almost dumps the snacks on Aang but he helps her steady her grip on the tray and now their hands are holding the tray together and the two stare at each other.
"Enjoy your snack." Meng said embarrassed as she walks off.
"What was that all about?" Natsu asked.
"I don't know." Wendy said and then an older woman wearing a yellow kimono enters the entry room.
"Welcome, young travelers. I am Aunt Wu. Who's next for their fortune? Don't be shy." Aunt Wu said and Aang, Natsu, Erza, Wendy, Gray, and Sokka all look uninterested.
"I guess me." Katara said.
"I'll come too." Lucy said and the two girls get up and follow Aunt Wu.
After they left Sokka and Gray start eating the bean curd puffs and Wendy tries one as well.
"Not bad. Not bad." Sokka said.
"These are good." Wendy said and she offers two of them to Natsu and Aang.
"I'm good on puffs." Natsu said.
"Yeah. Me too." Aang said. "So what do you think they're talking about back there?" Aang asked.
"Probably stupid and boring stuff." Gray said.
"Yeah. You know, love, who they're gonna marry, how many babies they're gonna have. Dumb stuff." Sokka said.
"Yeah...dumb stuff like that." Natsu said.
"Natsu, are you okay? Are you sick again?" Happy asked.
"I'm fine, buddy. I just gotta find a bathroom." Natsu said getting up.
"I'll join you." Aang said also getting up and following Natsu.
"Something must be wrong with them." Carla said.
"They're weird." Gray said as he eats another curd puff.
"Or maybe...no. That can't be possible." Erza said.
Aang and Natsu walk down the hallway near the inner door and when they arrive there they both press their ears against the door.
Inside a room with four red pillars rising to the roof with a square area in the middle of the room and in the center of the square is a small fire and four pillows are on the square ground and Aunt Wu, Lucy, and Katara are sitting on the pillows in the square area and Aunt Wu feels Katara's palms.
"Your palms are so smooth. Do you use moisturizer?" Aunt Wu asked.
"Actually, I have this special seaweed lotion. I can get you some if you want." Katara said and outside the room Aang and Natsu both stick their tongues out in disgust. "So do you see anything interesting in my love line?" Katara asked and back outside the room Natsu nods at Aang for him to hear and Aang presses his ear again against the door.
"I feel great romance for you. The man you're going to marry..." Aunt Wu began.
"Tell me more!" Katara said.
"I can see he is a very powerful bender." Aunt Wu said and back outside the room Aang grins widely and Natsu nods also grinning.
"So what about me?" Lucy asked and back outside the room Natsu quickly presses his ear against the door.
"For you, this is the most reliable method of telling your fortune." Aunt Wu said pointing at an urn filled with bones.
"Bones tell people their fortune?" Lucy asked.
"Indeed. The bones never lie. Go on, pick one." Aunt Wu said and Lucy picks a bone from the urn. "Now, throw it into the fire." Aunt Wu instructed and Lucy throws the bone into the fire. "The heat makes cracks in the bones and I read the bone cracks to tell your destiny." Aunt Wu said and as the bone is in the fire a huge crack appears on the bone.
"That's a big crack." Katara said and the bone cracks again and it's almost disintegrated.
"I've never seen this before." Aunt Wu said and then the fire becomes big and the fire turns black.
"Did the fire just turn black?" Lucy asked.
"Oh, my!" Aunt Wu said.
"What's going on? What's my fortune?" Lucy asked.
"This is truly incredible! You will be involved in a great battle along with one known as the Avatar as foretold in the prophecy! This is an awesome conflict between good and evil, but you will also be involved in another terrific battle! This battle is against a group of powerful dark wizards and new dark powerful benders. These great battles whose outcomes will determine the fate of not only this world, but the world you are from as well!" Aunt Wu said shocking Lucy and Katara.
"No way." Katara said and back outside the room Aang and Natsu are shocked from hearing what Aunt Wu just said.
"Is...that all?" Lucy asked and then the fire turns back to normal and gets smaller.
"Actually, there's more. I feel there will be great romance for you as well. The man you are going to marry..." Aunt Wu said and back outside the room Natsu quickly presses his ear against the door.
"Who is it?" Lucy asked.
"I can see that you will marry a mage who is as powerful and strong as you will be throughout your journey." Aunt Wu said.
"A mage that's as powerful and strong as I'll be? That's great. Thank you, Aunt Wu." Lucy said and back outside the room Natsu grins widely and Aang nods at him and the two high five each other.
Back at the entry room Sokka, Gray, Erza, and Wendy are waiting in the entry room and Sokka sees Aang and Natsu returning to the entry room looking very happy.
"Looks like you two had a very good bathroom break." Sokka said.
"Yeah and while we were in there..." Natsu was cut off by Erza.
"We don't wish to know." Erza said thinking what the two were gonna say about bathroom stuff.
Aunt Wu, Lucy, and Katara exit the room and return to the entry room.
"Who's next?" Aunt Wu asked.
"Okay, let's get this over with." Sokka said.
"I'm stayin' outta this." Gray said.
"Your future is full of struggle and anguish. Most of it self-inflicted. The same thing is for the shirtless one, but more...cold-hearted." Aunt Wu said making Gray growl.
"But you didn't even read our palms or anything." Sokka said.
"And I said I didn't want to hear about any fortune." Gray said.
"I don't need to read your palms. It's written all over your faces. You also needed to hear what I had to say about you." Aunt Wu said making Sokka grumble as he sits down and Gray growls again. "You two, come with me." Aunt Wu said to Aang and Natsu and they follow her.
"Cold-hearted? I'm not cold." Gray said.
"Sure you're not." Happy said.
"Shut it, Cat!" Gray snapped.
"I really feel sorry for Juvia falling for you. Guess you two won't be in love after all." Happy said.
"Happy, quiet. Gray stop acting like a five-year-old. Sokka, stop pouting like a three-year-old." Erza said.
"Yes, ma'am." Sokka, Gray, and Happy said at the same time.
Aunt Wu, Aang, and Natsu are in the room Lucy and Katara were in and they sit down on the floor pillows.
"As I have told your yellow-haired friend, the bones are a reliable method of telling your fortune." Aunt Wu said. "Pick a bone." Aunt Wu said and Aang and Natsu pick bones from the urn. "Throw it into the fire." Aunt Wu said.
"I'll go first." Natsu said as he throws his bone into the fire.
"It says here that you will one day reunite with your long lost foster father and you will also become the new master of the guild you reside in." Aunt Wu said.
"Yeah. That's great." Natsu said.
"Your turn." Aunt Wu said to Aang and he throws his bone into the fire and huge cracks appear on the bone. "This is the same thing." Aunt Wu said and the bone cracks again almost disintegrated. "Oh, my." Aunt Wu said and the fire grows huge. "This is amazing! Like the girl's fortune, you will be involved in a great battle with her. It is an awesome conflict between..." Aunt Wu was cut off by Aang.
"Yeah, yeah. I know this already. Does my fortune say anything about a girl?" Aang asked.
"Yeah. Mine too?" Natsu asked.
"A girl? You two want to know about love?" Aunt Wu asked.
"Yes." Aang and Natsu said at the same time.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't see anything about that." Aunt Wu said making both Aang and Natsu downcast. "Oh, look! I must have missed something." Aunt Wu said as she picks up a sliver of bone. "It's right here. It says 'trust in your heart and you will be with the girl you love'." Aunt Wu examined the underside of the bone.
"Really? Just trust in our hearts?" Natsu asked and then grins widely.
"That's great! Thank you Aunt Wu!" Aang said.
"Yeah. Thanks a lot!" Natsu said as they get up and run out while Aunt Wu shakes her head at the two.
The gang exit the building and they walk down the village square.
"Well, now you guys got to see for yourselves that fortunetelling is a big and stupid hoax." Sokka said.
"You're just mad because you and Gray are gonna make yourselves unhappy your whole lives." Katara said.
"That woman is crazy! My life will be calm, happy, and joyful!" Gray said as he gets more angry and kicks a rock off the ground which bounces off a nearby sign and it hits him on the head.
"What about that?" Happy asked.
"That doesn't prove anything!" Gray said.
"Well, I like my predictions." Katara said.
"Me too, though I'm not sure about what she meant by battling powerful dark wizards and new dark powerful benders." Lucy said.
"I think those powerful dark wizards might be those cloaked figures that we met back at the forest that were after you." Erza said.
"Maybe, but I have feeling that things will turn out very well." Lucy said.
"I agree." Katara said.
"They sure are." Aang said.
"Yep." Natsu said.
"Why? What's she tell you guys?" Katara asked.
"Uh, she told me about being the new master of Fairy Tail." Natsu said.
"Neat." Lucy said.
"What about you, Aang?" Katara asked.
"Just some stuff." Aang said.
Just then the gang see a large crowd gathering at the center of the village square and the gang approach the crowd and as they enter the crowd they look up at the sky in silence.
"What's with the sky?" Lucy asked.
"We are waiting for Aunt Wu to come and read the clouds to predict the fate of the whole village." The calm man the gang met before said.
"That cloud looks like a fluffy bunny." Wendy said.
"You'd better hope that's not a bunny. The bunny cloud forecasts doom and destruction." The calm man said.
"Oh, brother." Gray said face palming.
"Do you even hear yourself?" Sokka asked.
"The cloud reading will tell us if Mount Makapu will remain dormant for another year or if it will erupt." A woman said.
"We used to have a tradition once a year of going up the mountain to check on the volcano ourselves, but ever since Aunt Wu moved to our village twenty years ago, we have a tradition of not doing it." The calm man said.
"I can't believe you would trust your lives to that crazy old woman's superstition!" Gray said.
"Be quiet. She's coming." Katara said.
The crowd sees Aunt Wu and her herald arriving and Aunt Wu is climbing a large staircase allowing her to get on a little stage and the gang are still among the crowd and Meng is standing next to Aang.
"Hey, Aang, doesn't that cloud look like a flower?" Meng asked.
"Uh, sure I guess." Aang said he quickly gets to Katara.
"Hey, Katara, doesn't that cloud look like a flower?" Aang asked but Katara shushes him.
Aunt Wu bows to the crowd and she opens a book she's carrying.
"Bending arrow cloud. Good crops this year and nice big harvest." Aunt Wu said.
"Good news!" An old man said as he hugs an old woman possibly his wife.
"Wavy moon shape cloud. It's going to be a great year for twins." Aunt Wu said.
"Yes!" Two twins in green said at the same time and give each other a high five.
"And cumulus cloud with a twisted nob coming off the end of it. The village will not be destroyed by the volcano this year and someone who is both a mage and a bender shall make sure of it!" Aunt Wu said and the crowd cheers wildly and while the crowd is cheering Aang approaches Katara.
"Uh, since we're here, there's something I want to tell you. I like you, but not normal." Aang said but Katara doesn't pay attention to Aang and she joins the crowd leaving Aang alone making him crushed. "Never mind." Aang said.
Lucy is in the middle of the crowd and Natsu and Happy approach her.
"Hey, Luce." Natsu said and Lucy turns to him.
"Oh, hey, Natsu." Lucy said.
"Hey, listen, Luce. There's something I wanna tell you." Natsu said.
"What is it? Is Zuko after us again?" Lucy asked.
"No, it's not that. It's just that um, I..." Natsu stops talking for a minute leaving Lucy confused.
"What? Just tell me, Natsu." Lucy said.
"I...I...I...think you need to lose some weight." Natsu said shocking Lucy.
"What?!" Lucy asked flabbergasted.
"You need to stop eating sweets, Luce." Natsu said.
"Natsu, I've looked at myself last time and I'm not fat." Lucy said.
"You're not fat. I just think you need to look after your body from here on out because this world might have some food that's not good for your health." Natsu said.
"Right. Um, I gotta go now." Lucy said as she walks away.
"Natsu, come're." Happy said and Natsu leans over to Happy. "No! No! No! No! No! No!" Happy said slapping Natsu six times. "Really? She needs to lose weight?" Happy asked.
"It slipped out." Natsu said.
"Natsu, saying things like that offends females." Happy said.
"What else was I supposed to say to her?" Natsu asked.
"Just talk to her and tell her how you feel." Happy said.
"It's hard." Natsu said.
"Look pretend I'm Lucy. What would you say to me? And if you say I need to lose weight, you're gonna be my scratching post." Happy said.
"Uh, hey, Luce. I'm liking that new blue hair you got recently. It makes you look like Happy." Natsu said.
"Wow. Okay, this is not working out." Happy said.
Meanwhile Katara is at the front of Aunt Wu's house and she knocks on the door and Aunt Wu opens it.
"Hi, Aunt Wu. I'm sorry to bother you." Aunt Wu said.
"Anytime." Aunt Wu said.
"About this powerful bender I'm supposed to marry, is he gonna be handsome? I hope he's tall." Katara said.
"Ah, you want another reading?" Aunt Wu asked.
"Yes please!" Katara answered and Aunt Wu allows Katara in the building.
Meanwhile Aang, Sokka, Gray, Erza, and Wendy walk around the village square and obviously Sokka is in a bad mood and so is Gray.
"I can't believe these saps. Someone really needs to scream some sense into them." Sokka said.
"They seem happy." Wendy said.
"Not for long. I'm gonna prove once and for all that Wu's predictions are a total sham." Gray said.
"You two are just immature. I'm going to find a marketplace." Erza said as she leaves.
"C'mon, Sokka. Let's crush some spirits." Gray said.
"Yeah." Sokka said.
Gray finds a man wearing red shoes and Gray runs up to him.
"Hey, you! I bet Aunt Wu told you to wear these red shoes, didn't she?" Gray asked.
"Yes. She said I'd be wearing red shoes when I met my true love." The man said.
"Uh-huh and how many times have you worn these shoes since you got that fortune?" Gray asked.
"Everyday." The man answered and Gray gets severely ticked off.
"THEN OF COURSE IT'S GONNA COME TRUE!" Gray shouted.
"Really? You think so? I'm so excited!" The man said.
"IDIOTS!" Gray shouted as he kicks a rock and it hits a duck making it fly at Gray's shoulders and it starts annoying him making Gray run off while the duck goes after him.
Meanwhile at the reading room of Aunt Wu's building Aunt Wu tells Katara her fortune.
"...and then you'll have your third great grandchild before quietly passing away in your sleep. Is that enough information for you?" Aunt Wu asked.
"Thanks, Aunt Wu." Katara said as she gets up and starts to leave but she turns back. "Oh, one more thing. How warmly should I dress tomorrow?" Katara asked.
"You want me to do a reading about THAT?" Aunt Wu asked flabbergasted and Katara nods her head while grinning.
Meanwhile Gray and Sokka are still at the village square and now they're both out of their minds.
"We don't care what Aunt Wu told you!" Sokka yelled.
"You need to take a bath sometime!" Gray yelled at a very filthy man who grunts in response to Sokka's and Gray's shouting and he walks off.
"This is getting annoying!" Sokka said.
"None of this would've happened if Aunt Wu hadn't come here twenty years ago." Gray said.
Aang then approaches Sokka and Natsu arrives as well.
"Hey, Sokka. You know some stuff about girls right?" Aang asked.
"Some stuff? You've come to the right place." Sokka said.
"Wait, what do you know about girls?" Gray asked.
"A lot of things. Now, do you mind? I'm trying to help out a friend here." Sokka said.
"Whatever." Gray said.
"So a lot, huh?" Natsu asked.
"Yep. So what can I do you two for?" Sokka asked.
"Well, there's this girl..." Aang began and unknowing to him Meng is hiding behind a barrel and she giggling.
"I think I know what you mean." Sokka said.
"You do?" Natsu asked.
"And you're okay with it?" Aang asked.
"Yeah and to tell you two the truth, I've been picking up the subtle vibe that she likes you too." Sokka said.
"She does? Really?" Aang asked and Meng is still behind Aang waving and trying to get his attention.
"Oh, yeah. She's crazy about you. All you have to do is not mess it up." Sokka said.
"How?" Natsu asked.
"The number one mistake nice guys like you two make is being too nice." Sokka said.
"That's stupid." Carla said.
"Aye." Happy said.
"You can be too nice?" Aang asked.
"Yeah. If you want to keep her interested you two should act aloof, like you don't care one way or the other." Sokka said.
"Okay." Aang said.
"If you say so. Thanks." Natsu said.
"Hi, Aang. I was wondering..." Meng was cut off by Aang.
"See you later." Aang said walking away.
"See ya." Natsu said also walking away.
"Wow, they're good." Sokka said.
"Great. Sokka has created two monsters." Happy said.
Meanwhile at the outside of Aunt Wu's house Aunt Wu pushes Katara out of her house.
"...and you'll be fine as long as you have a scarf. Bye bye now." Aunt Wu said.
"Okay, thanks, but one more thing." Katara said and Aunt Wu takes a deep breath.
"All right. What is it?" Aunt Wu asked.
"Should I eat a mango or a papaya for breakfast tomorrow?" Katara asked.
"Papaya!" Aunt Wu answered annoyed as she slams the door shut.
"I hate papaya." Katara said as she walks off and Aang is leaning against the wall trying to look nonchalant.
"Oh, hey, Katara. I didn't see you there." Aang said.
"Hi, Aang." Katara said still walking away.
"That's okay. I'm busy with my own stuff." Aang said.
Meanwhile Lucy is walking around the village trying to find a marketplace to shop at and while she's walking Natsu is leaning against a wall of a building also trying to look nonchalant.
"Oh, hey there, Luce. I didn't notice ya." Natsu said.
"Uh, hi, Natsu." Lucy said. "Is there something you need?" Lucy asked.
"Not really. Just hangin' out here doin' whatever." Natsu said.
"Right. Well, I'll see you later." Lucy said as she walks off.
"Later." Natsu said and then a duck flies near him and they look at each other and the duck quacks at him.
Lucy finds a marketplace and there she finds Erza, Wendy, Carla, and Katara at the papaya fruit stand and so Lucy decides to join them.
"Ugh, papaya please." Katara said in disgust.
"If you hate papaya, then why take one?" Wendy asked.
"Because Aunt Wu told me." Katara answered.
"You don't always have to do what she says." Erza said and the shopkeeper hands Katara a papaya.
"Hey, guys." Lucy said joining the two.
"Hi, Lucy." Katara said.
"Are you guys shopping for food for travel?" Lucy asked.
"Actually, now that you mention it, we might as well." Erza said.
"You can go ahead." Katara said.
"Okay. See you later, Katara." Wendy said as she, Lucy, and Erza walk off to the next stand.
Before Katara leaves she sees Aang standing next to her and he's still trying to act cool.
"So papaya, huh?" Aang asked.
"Uh-huh. Would you like some?" Katara asked.
"You know me. I don't really care what I eat." Aang said picking up a fruit.
"Okay then. See you later." Katara said as she walks away.
Aang takes a bite of the fruit but then he spits it out hating the fruit.
Meanwhile Lucy, Erza, Wendy, and Carla are at the mango stand and they are picking out mangoes.
"I'm going to the apple stand." Erza said.
"Okay. We'll meet you there." Lucy said and Erza walks away.
As Lucy and Wendy are still picking mangoes they see Natsu standing next to them and he's trying to look cool as well.
"So mangoes?" Natsu asked.
"Yeah. They're for our trip." Lucy said. "Want one?" She offered.
"C'mon, Luce. You should know that I don't care about what I eat." Natsu said taking a pear.
"Right. We'll we're gonna go with Erza. See ya." Lucy said as she, Wendy, and Carla walk away.
Natsu starts eating the pear but then he spits it out and wipes his mouth.
"Man, this bites." Natsu said and Aang approaches him.
"Hey." Aang said.
"How's your effort tryin' to get Katara's attention?" Natsu asked.
"Maybe aloof isn't my style." Aang said. "What about you?" Aang asked.
"I'm startin' to think that it's not my thing either." Natsu said.
"Oh, a panda lily!" A voice said and the two see a woman in green getting a flower from a man in white and pink and the two hug each other.
"Did you just see that?" Natsu asked.
"Yeah." Aang said.
While man and the woman are still hugging happily Aang and Natsu get between them surprising them.
"Sorry to bother you, but where can a guy get one of these things?" Aang asked pointing at the flower.
Meanwhile Lucy, Wendy, and Carla find Erza at the apple stand picking some apples and Happy is with her and so they approach the two.
"There you are. I'm almost done in this stand. Lucy, what's wrong? You look distracted." Erza said.
"It's just that Natsu has been acting very weird today. Do you two know what's going on with him?" Lucy asked making Happy sweat drop.
"Nope." Happy quickly answered.
"I'm afraid I don't know either. Just give him some time and talk to him later." Erza said.
"Okay. Thanks, Erza." Lucy said.
Meanwhile Aang and Natsu are climbing up a rocky path leading up a mountain and Sokka and Gray are following the two.
"I can't believe you two are dragging us all the way up here just for a stupid flower." Gray said.
"Not just any flower, Snowball-brain. A panda lily." Natsu said.
"Yeah. We saw it in action and it actually works." Aang said.
"Flowers are fine once you're married, but at this early stage, it's crucial that you maintain maximum aloofness." Sokka said.
"Our hearts are telling us to get these flowers. Aunt Wu told us if we followed our hearts, we would be with the ones we loved." Aang said.
"Don't tell me you two actually believe in that stuff too." Gray said. "Also, how do you plan on holding onto a flower for who knows how long we are in this world until we somehow get back to Fiore and give it to Lisanna?" Gray asked.
"The flower's not for Lisanna. It's for someone else." Natsu said.
"Who? Mira?" Gray asked.
"No." Natsu answered.
"Levy?" Gray asked.
"No." Natsu said.
"Let me guess, Erza?" Gray asked.
"No! Who the flower is for is none of your business." Natsu said.
"Besides, Aunt Wu hasn't been wrong yet. Why should she be wrong about love?" Aang asked as they finally arrive at the rim of the mountain which is the volcano and Aang and Natsu see panda lilies and so they pick up the flowers and sniff them but then Aang and Natsu look down at the caldera that's full of lava. "Oh, no. Aunt Wu was wrong." Aang said as he drops the panda lily into the lava.
Aang, Natsu, Sokka, and Gray look down at the volcano with alarmed expressions.
"Those people think they're safe." Gray said.
"We have to warn them." Sokka said.
"No time to walk." Aang said as he opens his glider and grabs Natsu, Gray, and Sokka and they start flying down back to the village.
They land in the village square and they find Katara, Wendy, Happy, and Carla waiting outside Aunt Wu's door.
"Hi, Katara." Aang said.
"Can you believe she won't let me in? After all the business I've given her?" Katara asked.
"But, Katara. She doesn't even charge." Wendy said.
"I know, but still." Katara said and Lucy and Erza arrive.
"Hey, guys. What's going on?" Lucy asked.
"Aunt Wu was wrong about the volcano." Sokka said.
"Sokka, you and Gray tried to convince me that Aunt Wu was wrong before and it's gonna take a lot to make me..." Katara was cut of by an erupting sound and everyone looks up at the mountain with smoke rising.
"Oh, no." Erza said.
Later on the gang confront the villagers to convince them.
"Everyone! That volcano is going to erupt any second. Aunt Wu was wrong!" Gray said.
"Yeah, yeah. We all know you don't believe in Aunt Wu, Mister Science and Reason Lover." A woman said.
"He's telling the truth!" Sokka said.
"If you won't listen to them, then maybe you'll listen to me. I want to believe Aunt Wu and her predictions as much as you people do, but my brother, Gray, Natsu, and Aang saw lava with their own eyes." Katara said.
"Well, I heard Aunt Wu's prediction with my own ears." The calm man said.
Aang and Lucy Airbend themselves onto the roof of a building.
"Everyone listen to us! You're all in danger! We have to get out of here!" Aang said.
"That's right. You people can't rely on Aunt Wu's prediction. You have to take fate into your own hands." Lucy said and another shaking occurs.
"There! Look at that!" Gray said pointing up at the mountain.
"Can your fortunetelling explain that?" Sokka asked.
"Can your science explain why it rains?" A man asked.
"Yes! Yes it can!" Sokka answered but the crowd is not convinced and they all walk away.
"They just won't listen to reason." Wendy said.
"But they will answer to Aunt Wu." Lucy said as she jumps down and Aang follows.
"I know. That's the problem." Gray said.
"Well, now it's gonna be the solution." Aang said.
"That's right. We're taking fate into our own hands." Lucy said.
"So what's the plan?" Natsu asked.
"First, we need to borrow Aunt Wu's cloud reading book." Lucy said.
Katara, Sokka, Natsu, Gray, Erza, and Wendy are standing in front of Aunt Wu's door acting casual while Lucy and Aang enter Aunt Wu's house using the topmost balcony and the two enter the reading room searching for the cloud book while Momo chitters.
"Quiet, Momo. We don't want anyone to hear us." Lucy said.
Just then a reflection is revealed on a gong in front of Aang and Lucy and the two see the reflection and turn to see Meng startled.
"Oh, we didn't see you there." Aang said.
"You don't like me, do you?" Meng asked sadly.
"I like you." Aang said.
"But not the way I like you." Meng said.
"Oh, I guess not." Aang said.
"It's okay. It's just hard when you really like someone, but they don't think of you that way." Meng said.
"I know what you mean." Aang said sadly.
"She's beautiful by the way." Meng said.
"What?" Aang asked.
"That Water Tribe girl. I can why you like her so much. She's sweet, she's a bender, and her hair seems manageable." Meng said as she tries to put her braided pigtails down but they go back up.
"Don't worry. You're gonna meet a very great guy who's gonna completely fall for you. I know it." Aang said.
"Thanks." Meng said.
"Come on, Aang. Let's go." Lucy said.
"Wait. Don't you two want this?" Meng asked taking out the cloud reading book from her kimono.
"Thanks, but how did you know?" Lucy asked.
"I've kinda been stalking him." Meng answered as she laughs nervously.
"Oh, well, thanks." Aang said blushing.
Later on Lucy, Aang, and Katara are riding Appa through the clouds and Lucy is trying to find the right cloud shape in the book.
"Clouds are made of water and air so between the three of us, we ought to be able to bend and move them to any shape we want." Aang said.
"We can do that." Katara said.
"I found it! The symbol for volcanic doom." Lucy said.
Lucy, Aang, and Katara start bending the clouds into the volcanic doom shape and while this is happening the villagers are looking at the clouds in horror while Wendy and Erza bring Aunt Wu over to her stage.
"Aunt Wu, look! Something is happening in the clouds." Wendy said pointing at the sky.
"That's strange. It shouldn't...oh, my!" Aunt Wu said as she sees the cloud now having a skull shape.
As the mountain is still spewing smoke Aang addresses the crowd.
"We can still save the village if we act fast. Erza and Sokka have a plan." Aang said.
"Lava is gonna flow downhill to this spot." Sokka said.
"If we can dig a deep enough trench, we can channel all the lava away from the village and to the river." Erza said.
"If you're Earthbenders, come with me and Aang." Lucy said.
"I'm an Earthbender!" One of the twins said.
"I'm not!" The other twin said.
"Everybody else grab a shovel! Let's hurry!" Erza said as another erupt noise is heard.
The villagers are now outside the village and they start making the trench with Earthbending and digging with shovels but while this is happening the volcano erupts and starts spewing lava.
"Dig faster! Dig faster!" Sokka said and the twins finally connects the trench to the river.
"Everyone needs to evacuate!" Aang said.
"We'll come for you when it's safe!" Lucy said.
The villagers start to run while the volcano is now precipitating ash and lava engulfs the village gate and then the lava passes through the cemetery engulfing headstones as the lava is heading downhill and finally the lava reaches the trench and starts to fill rapidly but it's halted.
"It's too much! It's going to overflow!" Katara said.
"No! I was sure this plan would work! Forgive my mistake! I need one of you to hit me for this error!" Erza said shocking everyone.
"Disregard that order, I know how to stop this eruption." Ray sped up the side of the volcano, towards the peak. He then extended four fingers out and redirected the heat from the lava still in the volcano. Meanwhile Lucy and Aang ran to the lava that had already escaped.
"Guys!" Natsu called.
"Let them go. I think they know what they're doing." Wendy said.
Another explosion rocks the village and burning rocks start to rain down in addition to ash and everyone sees that Lucy and Aang hasn't moved and a huge boulder flies out of the sky and lands in the trench exploding and Lucy and Aang rush forward with determined looks on their faces and the two propel themselves in the air and the two start to Airbend and as lava begins to overflow Lucy and Aang work together to blow the lava straight up with wind not allowing it to advance on the villager and finally as Aang draws in a mighty in take of breath and expels it he lets out a huge gust of air cooling some of the lava but then more lava comes at him but Lucy ran up and as she's about to bend air she makes lava rise instead and it is formed into a lava ball much to not only her surprise but Aang, Katara, Natsu, Gray, Erza, Wendy, Sokka, Happy, and Carla are surprised too and she Lucy is still holding the lava in the air she also lets out a huge gust of air and cools the lava ball into a stone ball and it drops down and falls to the ground and Lucy and Aang both relax and assume a meditation pose while the others watch in awe.
"What did Lucy just do?" Happy asked.
"She just manipulated lava and formed into a ball." Gray said.
"How was that possible?" Wendy asked.
"Could this be the third element Lucy must learn to bend?" Carla asked.
"I think so." Erza said.
"Luce is really becoming a stronger mage like us and a very powerful bender." Natsu said as he grins widely. "Way to go, Luce. I'm actually jealous of you." Natsu said as he's still grinning.
"Man, sometimes I forget what a powerful bender Aang is." Sokka said.
"Wait. What did you say?" Katara asked.
"Nothing. I just said that Aang is one powerful bender." Sokka said and Katara looks at Aang.
"I suppose he is." Katara said.
Later on the volcano is still smoking but it's not erupting and the gang return to the villager square where Aunt Wu and the other villagers are and Aang offers Aunt Wu her cloud book that they 'borrowed'.
"By the way, we kind of borrowed your book." Aang said sheepishly.
"So you messed with the clouds, did you?" Aunt Wu asked as she takes her book in anger while Lucy and Katara look guilty while Sokka smiles and points at the two girls since they were part of the cloud manipulation too but Lucy punches him and knocks him down but Aunt Wu laughs. "Very clever!" Aunt Wu said.
"No offense, but I hope this taught everyone a lesson about not relying too much on fortunetelling." Gray said.
"But Aunt predicted the village wouldn't be destroyed and be saved someone who is a mage and a bender. She was right after all." The calm man said and both Gray and Sokka get to the calm man's face.
"We hate you." Gray and Sokka said at the same time but Erza and Katara take the two by their shoulders.
"It's okay, you two." Erza said.
"Yeah. Everything's gonna be alright." Katara said leading the two away.
"Can I ask you something?" Aang asked.
"Me too?" Natsu asked.
"Of course." Aunt Wu said.
"You didn't really see love in our fortunes. You just told us what we wanted to hear." Aang said.
"Let me tell you a little secret, you two. Just like you and your two friends reshaped the clouds, you both have the power to reshape your destiny." Aunt Wu said.
"That's good to know. Thank you for everything, Aunt Wu." Lucy said. "You two ready to go?" Lucy asked.
"Yep." Natsu said.
"Let's go." Aang said and the three get on Appa while Katara is at the reins.
"Goodbye, everyone! It was nice to meet you! Take care, Meng." Katara said.
"Bye! Take care!" Meng said waving goodbye as Appa flies off but then her smile is replaced by a frown. "Floozy." Meng said.
