Jordan stood there, shocked by what he heard. Then he had a strange, random thought.

'I don't really know that much about you, Kezi Hawkins'

Jordan realized he could learn about her; he had the powers of the Avatar, after all. And looking into the past wasn't a breach so...

He closed his eyes as he focused on Kezi's life before the war. It seemed a good place to start looking.

When she got back to the temple, Kezi looked all over the place, but she couldn't find Zack. When she'd finally given up, she went downstairs to talk to Kaleb and Nate about the Falcon. It was dicussing the star racer that the group heard Zack yelling inside Jeffery Bradley's office.

Kezi was walking toward the door when Zack stormed out of it. He almost ran into her. She chased after him as he quickly walked to his room.

"Zack? What's wrong?"

She called to him until they reached his room. He opened the door to go in, but Kezi stepped in front of him and walked in. She sat down on his bed, and gave him an expectant look. He sighed and went to sit next to her.

Kezi sat there, waiting. Zack finally spoke. "I confronted Jeffery about him being my father..."

"How'd it go?" she asked.

"He acted as if...he had no idea...like...I don't know. Not the reaction I expected."

"Is that possible? That he didn't know?"

"Well...my mother never directly told me that he knew...guess I just made an assumption."

Kezi held his hand while they sat there.

Jordan saw a little girl standing in the front of the room with the teacher. She had long, dark, curly hair unlike the rest of the children in the class. Jordan knew this shy little girl was Kezi.

The teacher spoke, 'Alright, class. We have a new student today.' Jordan watched as the little Kezi looked all over the room, scared to look at one place for long. She took a deep breath and said, 'Nice to meet you! My name is Kezianna Warner!'. Kezi's face was bright red with timidity.

She took her seat and class began for the day. When class was over and the teacher had left, Jordan noticed a group of boys approach Kezi. One of them slapped her books out of her hands.

'We're going to call you Crap Head, because your hair is dark.' one of the boys teased her. Jordan saw Kezi's face go red. She clenched her hands into fists as she replied, 'My name is Kezianna...'

The boy who gave her the nickname simply teased her more. 'Awwww...Crap head can talk.'

The little Kezi turned even redder, but Jordan realized it was because she was red due to fury rather than shyness or humiliation. She swung her fist into the boy's face which threw him backward.

The other boys stepped away as Kezi climbed on top and hit his head repeatedly. 'That'll teach you to call me names!' she cried.

A laugh from across the room caused Kezi to look up. The boy had sandy-colored hair and seemed about Kezi's age.

'What're you laughing at?!' Kezi demanded while waving her fist at him. He quickly turned around with a blush on his face before slowly and shyly glancing back at Kezi.

Later on that day, Jordan followed the younger version of Kezi on her way home. The boy she'd beaten up earlier stepped out from a tree with a smirk which caused Kezi to stop. Then an older boy stepped out from behind the tree. He was smirking more than the other boy. Kezi looked at him in shock.

'I have to teach those who bully my baby bro a few things.' he said as he cracked his knuckles. Kezi gave him a challenging look and jumped into a nearby tree.

The older brother pursued Kezi through as she lept from one to the next. He threw a knife in her direction, but Kezi dodged out of the way in time; it lodged in a nearby tree. She jumped to the tree, pulled the knife out, and leaped backward to meet the boy in the air. Her empty hand formed a punch and connected with his jaw. He fell to the ground as Kezi gracefully landed in a crouch about ten feet away.

The older boy suddenly vanished. Kezi gasped when she saw him disappear, and he snuck up behind her when she wasn't looking. He hit her in the face, and as she fell forward, he kicked her in the back. She fell on her stomach.

Jordan grew furious when he saw that older boy yank Kezi off the ground by her long hair. 'Your hair is ugly, Crap Head.' he snarled in triumph.

Kezi clenched her hands into fists. 'I DON'T LIKE MY HAIR EITHER!' she shouted back. She used the knife she'd yanked from the tree to cut her long hair free.

The older boy fell backwards a little; Kezi quickly turned around and kicked him in the face twice. When he landed on his back on the ground, Kezi was on top of him punching his face repeatedly.

'Even with hair like this...' Kezi yelled. 'I'm still me!'

The younger boy ran away after a while. Then when Kezi was finished beating the older boy, he sat up and wiped the blood out from under his nose while Kezi panted. He glared up at her and as he got up, he threw Kezi's hair up in the air.

'Outsider!' he yelled before stalking off. Kezi looked after him with pain in her eyes. She suddenly turned to look at another tree; Jordan looked, too.

The sandy haired boy who had laughed in class was standing in it watching Kezi. Kezi went on the defensive. 'You think I'm an outsider, don't you?' she exclaimed.

'...I...' the boy said. Kezi simply yelled back, 'I bet you agree with them, too!' She took off running toward a large building. jordan thought it was a house at first.

It turned out to be an orphanage. Jordan realized he hadn't traveled back far enough. But he was out of time.

Jordan sat there in the center of the Avatar's temple, thinking about all about Kezi he had seen.

'Oh, Kezi...what kind of life did you go through?' he thought as he walked toward the Earth team portal.
