We quickly get Suki and Zuko back to their cells before we move out to where the prisoners were now lined up.

"Line 'em up for the warden." a guard yells

The warden's back is facing them. There are eight prisoners, Hakoda is at the end of the line. Sokka and I move and push our way through the other guards so we are in the front.

"Welcome to the Boiling Rock. I'm sure you've all heard the horrible rumors about our little island. Well, I just want to tell you that they don't have to be true, as long as you do everything I say." the warden said

The stops in front of Hakoda who looks downward.

"Look me in the eye when I'm talking to you." the warden said

Hakoda averts his gaze.

"No." Hakoda said

"Oh? You'd rather look at my shoes? Then take a look!" the Warden said

He raises his left leg and drags Hakoda by his handcuffs down onto the floor. Hakoda is now kneeling over, his expression is anger. Sokka gasps in horror. I think to myself about time.

"I know exactly who you are, Hakoda of the Water Tribe. So strong-willed But don't worry, we'll get rid of that in time. Now look me in the eye." Warden said

Hakoda reluctantly lifts his head to look the warden in the eye and glares hatefully at him.

"See, isn't that better? (to the others) You will all do as I say or pay the price. You will all-" the warden is cut off

He begins to walk forward only for Hakoda to lift his left handcuff slightly, tripping the warden and causing him to fall flat on the ground. Sokka stifles a chuckle, I roll my eyes. Two guards tun the warden's aid.

"Are you okay, sir?" a guard asked

"I'm fine. Get these prisoners out of my sight." the warden said

He storms away impatiently. The two guards look at each other. They lead the prisoners away and to their room. Sokka and I stayed behind to show that we couldn't care. Once the guards dissipated we left to go find out where they put Hakoda. We found out which cell he was in. We enter his cell. I stay by the door and Sokka approaches him.

"Thank goodness you're okay." Sokka said

Hakoda rises to his feet and extends his right arm out, clenched in a fist, not realizing who we ate.

"If you take one step closer, you'll see just how 'okay' I am." Hakoda said

Sokka lifts his helmet off, as do I.

"Sokka, Kida, my son and daughter. You know Sokka, you should be more careful with that guard outfit on. I almost punched you in the gut." Hakoda said

"Yeah, I ran into that problem earlier." Sokka said

"So that is what happened with Suki." I said

Sokka just glared at me.

"Hurry we shouldn't stay in here to mush longer." I said

They nodded.

"So where's Bato? Where's everyone else from the invasion?" Sokka sked

"The others are being held at a prison near the Fire Nation palace. They singled me out as their leader and sent me here. But before I left, I met some young women who said they knew you. The…Oshinama Fighters?" Hakoda asked

"You mean Kyoshi Warriors?" I said

"That's right." Hakoda said

"Their leader Suki is here and she's gonna escape with us." Sokka said

"And your girlfriend." I said

"No she isn't." Sokka said

"Yes she is." I said

"Just like you-know-who is yours." Sokka said

We just glare at each other.

"Good. We'll need all the help we can get." Hakoda said

"And you know Prince Zuko?" Sokka asked

"The son of the fire Lord? I don't know him, but I know of him." Hakoda said

"Well, he's here too." Sokka said

"Sounds like a major problem." Hakoda said

"Well he's not a problem." I said

"He's on our side now. I know. I have the same reaction. After all he's done, it was hard to trust him. But he's really proven himself, and I never would've found you without his help." Sokka said

"So, do you have a plan?" Hakoda asked

"We had one, but some of the other prisoners got involved and ruined it. I dunno if there's another way off this island." Sokka said

Hakoda pats Sokka on the shoulder.

"Sokka, there's not prison in the world that can hold two Water Tribe geniuses. Plus we have a Kida, who can do just about anything" Hakoda said

"Hakoda said something nice about me, we are never going to get out of here." I said

We leave Hakoda's cell after talking about a new escape plan. We then head towards Zuko. We approach and Sokka knocks on his door and whispers through the window.

"Zuko, are you there?" Sokka asked

"I'm here." Zuko said

"We just go done talking to my dad. We came up with an escape plan together." Sokka said

"What are you two doing here?" some guard asked

Sokka and I turn around, Sokka puts his visor down.

"I was just telling this dirty lowlife what I think of him." Sokka said

"Well, you'll have to do that later. He's coming with us." the male asked

"Why?" I asked

"Because we have orders straight from the warden, that's why." a female said

"Could I just get ten more seconds to rough him up a bit?" Sokka asked

He then punches his palm with his fist.

"Fine, ten seconds." a female said

The two guards fold their arms. Sokka enters the cell and begins to "rough up" Zuko. The female guard leans against the wall, crosses her arms and shakes her head in mock disapproval.

"Take that… and this." Sokka said

"Newbie." the male said

"Do you also want a round with him?" the female asked

"Nah, I'll let him handle it." I said

It's quite for a few seconds, the male guard opens the door. Sokka has Zuko in a hold and is wrestling him.

"All right, that's enough." a male said

"One last thing." Sokka said

He then punches Zuko and the stomach, Sokka leans over.

"That was for Kida." Sokka whispers

Zuko is then escorted out of the cell by the guards while Sokka and I remain behind. I pull Sokka into a hug.

"Thanks big bro." I said

"Your welcome now lets go." Sokka said

We then head to Suki's cell to fill her in. Sokka enters and I standing outside without making it look like I am guarding it. But I can somewhat hear.

"Sokka, what's going on?" Suki asked

"I don't have much time. if I'm seen with you the guards might think something's up. I just talked to my dad and Zuko." Sokka said

"That's great." Suki said

"Yeah, and we're escaping today, on the gondola." Sokka said

"What?" Suki asked

"My dad, Kida, and I came up with the plan together. We're gonna commandeer the gondola and we're gonna take a hostage with us so they won't but the lines." Sokka said

"We'll never make it onto the gondola. There's too many guards." Suki said

"We already thought about that. We're gonna start a prison riot." Sokka said

"Okay, let's say by some miracle this all works and we make it on the gondola. The warden will still just cut the lines, even if we have a captive." Suki said

"Kida actually came up with this part. The warden can't cut the line if he is the captive." Sokka said

I look over to see a guard moving towards us. I move and knock on the door. Sokka quickly steps out. We move down a little bit.

"Hey, you, the warden wants to see you two." the guard said

"Why?" I asked

"I don't know, I didn't ask." the guard said

"Maybe we could schedule time with him? How's tomorrow?" Sokka asked

"He wants to see you… now." the guard said

We move and follow the guard to the yard. We all line up in a row and take our helmets off. We see Chit Sang with the warden.

"One of you is an imposter who thought he could fool me. But now, that person is going to be in a lot of trouble. Who is it?" the warden asked

Sokka looks away, and I get ready to fire.

"That's him, warden. He's the imposter." Chit Sang said

"What?" the bully guard said

Sokka and I turn to see that Chit Sang had pointed at the bully guard from the first day we arrived. The guard moves forward and grabs his shirt.

"I am not. He's lying. He's a liar." the guard said

The guard is taken away, Chit Snag turns and smiles at Sokka and I.

Later…

Sokka and I make our way to the guard that is in charge of the cell doors.

"Hey, I just got orders. Let the prisoners out into the yard." Sokka said

"But we're in the middle of a lockdown." the door guard said

"Oh, okay, I'll just go tell the warden you said that. I'm sure he'll be glad to hear about you undermining his authority." Sokka said

I lift my visor to look at the guard.

"What's your name again?" I asked

"Wait! Don't tell the warden. I'm just a little confused." the door guard said

"Hey, I'm confused too, but the warden's in a bad mood, and…irrational, so if you ask me, it's best no to question it, and just do what he says." Sokka said

"Yeah…you're right. We're letting them out." the door guard said

The guard opens all the doors by pulling the levers. The prisoners head for the yard. The prisoners mingle in the yard, where Sokka, Suki, Hakoda and I meet.

"Where's Zuko?" I asked

"I don't, but this is it. We have to start a riot." Sokka said

"Okay. But how do we do that?" Suki asked

"I'll show you." Hakoda said

Hakoda moves over and shoves a prisoner.

"Hey. What'd you do that for? That hurt my feelings." the tough prisoner said

"Aren't you mad at me?" Hakoda asked

"Uh, well, normally I would be, but I've been learning to control my anger." the tough prisoner said

"This isn't working." Sokka said

I see Chit Sang walking toward us, he lays his hand on Sokka's shoulder

"Hey you! You're lucky I didn't rat you out, but my generosity comes with a price. I know you're planning another escape attempt, and I want in." Chit Sang said

I see something flash through Sokka's eyes.

"Actually, we're trying to escape right now, but we need a riot. You wouldn't happen to know how to start one, would you?" Sokka asked

"A prison riot? Pleases." Chit Sang said

He moves and grabs a prisoner and lifts him in the air, bouncing him up and down.

"Hey!" Chit Sang yells

All the prisoners look at him.

"Riot!" Chit Sang yelled

Thus a riot breaks out.

"Impressive." Hakoda said

"Forget about controlling my anger… let's riot." the tough prisoner said

He is taken down by another prisoner. The riot is in full swing. We can see the warden up on a balcony.

"Who let these prisoners into the yard? This is supposed to be a lockdown." the warden said

I can see the door guard tip-toe away from the warden. I hear a noise and turn to see Zuko running towards us. I pull him into a hug.

"Where were you? I thought you weren't going to make it." I said

"I'm here now." Zuko said

"Now all we need to do is grab the warden, and get to the gondola." Sokka said

I pull back from hugging Zuko.

"I'm not sure." Sokka said

"I thought you thought this through." Zuko said

"I thought you told me it's okay not to think everything through." Sokka said

I look at Suki, who nods and runs off.

"Maybe not everything, but this is kind of important." Zuko said

"Hey, uh, fellas. I think your girlfriend's taking care of it." Chit Sang said

Sokka looks to see Suki hopping up on the heads off the rioters before jumping and flipping onto the tower. She easily defeats the first guard with a few quick jabs. Two more guards arrive. She ducks a fire blast and sweeps the first one, promptly dodges in the second one's fire blast, and continues to climb the tower. She makes it up to the top and defeats the final guard with a sliding kick. She soon grabs the warden, threating him with her fist in front of his face. She ties his hands together and uses his headband as a gag, the slams the warden against the wall. We were able to see the whole thing as we ran up to where they were. The boys are out of breath while I give Suki a high five.

"That's some girl." Hakoda said

"Tell me about it." Sokka said

We all run towards the gondola.

"We're almost there." Suki said

We are stopped by guard who launch two fire blasts at us. I send up and ice shield then send the shield towards them, sending them flying off the side.

"Back off! We've got the warden." Zuko said

He points to the warden that is slung over Chit Sang's shoulder, bound and gagged, and they clear the way.

"Let's go." Zuko said

We continue along the path, cautiously watching the guards so they do not try any sudden moves. We arrive at the gondola. Suki opens the door.

"Everyone it." Suki said

Zuko start the gondola, I freeze the handle, so Zuko can easily breakable. He grabs my hand and pulls me behind him onto the gondola.

"What were you two doing?" Sokka asked

"We were making it so they can't stop us." Zuko said

"Way to think ahead." Sokka said

"Someone in this family has to." I said

"We're on our way." Suki said

"Wait! Who's that?" Hakoda said

We all turn to see Azula and Ty Lee.

"That's a problem. It's my sister and her friend." Zuko said

Azula grabs a pair of handcuffs from a guard's belt and runs forward. Ty Lee jumps up and onto the cable, running along it toward the gondola. After elevating herself to the line with a fire blast, Azula uses the cuffs to attach herself to the cable and propel herself forward.

"This is a rematch I've been waiting for." Suki said

"Me too." Zuko said

"I wonder how long it took them to get Azula unfrozen." I said

Zuko and Suki moved to the top of the gondola. Sokka turns to me.

"Don't leave the gondola. I don't care if you can bend fire and water. I don't care. You need to stay in here and safe. (to Shit Sang) Don't let her leave." Sokka said

Sokka then climbed to the top of the gondola. Ty Lee flips into the air and lands in front of Suki, who growls and assumes a battle-ready position. Azula pulls herself up onto the roof and faces Zuko and Sokka. Azula assumes a battle stance and performs a slicing kick, sending blue fire at Zuko, who blocks it. Ty Lee and Suki trade blows, the latter blocking the former's attempts to use chi blocking each time. Ty Lee is forced to the edge but jumps into the gondola and comes out the other side. Zuko continues to wipe out Azula's fire blasts, Sokka draws her back to the edge with his sword. Zuko goes in for a finish, but Azula dodges Zuko's blast and stays on the gondola. She counters with a blast that goes wide, almost striking Suki and Ty Lee, who barely manage to dodge it. I hear a nose and see the warden trying to free himself. He does.

"Gut the line." He yells

I blast the warden freezing him sold. The gondola comes to halt. It rocks back and forth from the sudden stop. I see Sokka's feet hanging over the edge.

"They're about to cut the line." Ty Lee said

I see another gondola coming towards the prison.

"Then it's time to leave. Goodbye, Zuko." Azula said

Azula blast herself off the gondola, and Ty Lee backflips to the other gondola. Ty Lee looks back at us with concern, which in contrast with Azula's sadistic smile.

"They're cutting the line. The gondola's about to go." Zuko said

"I hope this thing floats." Hakoda said

"Good thing I'm here." I said

We hear a noise and move to the side to see the guards have stopped and are pinned to the wall by stilettos. Mai stopped them. Other guards try to attack Mai, but she dodges all their fire blasts and retaliates with her knives, pinning them all down by their wrist guards. Mai rears up in front of a female guard, who stops in fear, and deploys four knives that send the two guards behind her flying, dislodging one of the bars jamming the wheel mechanism. She pulls out her three pronged sai and pins down the las guard. Releasing the block on the line she allows the gondola to continue in motion.

"Who's that?" Sokka asked

"It's Mai." Zuko said happily

We make it to the otherside. I unfreeze the warden but leave him the gondola.

"Sorry, warden. Your record is officially broken." Hakoda said

"Well, we made it out. Now what?" Suki asked

"Zuko, what are you doing?" Sokka asked

"My sister was on that island." Zuko said

"Yeah, and she probaly right behidn us, so let's not stop." Sokka said

"What I mean is she must have come here somehow." Zuko said

He walks up a large hill by the sea, we follow him and see a large airship.

"That's our way out of here." Zuko said

"Okay go get it started. I'll give us some cover." I said

I run back over to the edge to see Azula, now fighting Mai and Ty Lee. Started to make it snow, which caused the boiling water to start to steam which gave a thick cloud of fog. I ran back to the air ship. I got on and we took off back towards the Western Air Temple. I still standing towards the back of the ship. Zuko walks over to me.

"So you were with Mai?" I asked

"What?" Zuko asked

"Back the prison, you were with her that was why you were late." I said

"Yeah she wanted a better reason for why I left." Zuko said

I nod my head.

"I know I broke my promise. But nothing happened between Mai and I. She likes someone else. She is my best friend, noting more nothing less." Zuko said

"I know I was heard what you and Sokka talked about on that balloon." I said

Zuko blushed. I walked away. We arrived at the temple by night fall. We exit the balloon that we had stopped right outside the temple.

"What you doing in this thing? What happened to the war balloon?" Katara asked

"It kind of got destroyed." Zuko said

"Sounds like a crazy fishing trip." Aang said

"Did you a least get some good meat?" Toph asked

"We did. The meat of all. The meat of friendship and fatherhood." Sokka said

Suki, Hakoda, and Chit Sang then exit the war ship.

"I'm new. What's up, everybody?" Chit Sang asked

"Dad?" Katara asked

She runs up and throws her arms around him.

"Hi, Katara." Hakoda said

"How are you here? What is going on? Where did you go?" Katara asked

"We kind of went to a Fire Nation prison." Sokka said

Hakoda pulls Sokka into the hug his having with Katara. I just walk away. I feel eyes on me but I just continue to walk away. I sat in my room for a few minutes before Zuko walked in and sat down next to me.

"I'm sorry." Zuko said

"There is nothing to be sorry for, it's not you can make my dad love me." I said

"No, but I am sorry for breaking your heart." Zuko said

"Zuko…" I start

"No just listen, you don't have to say anything. I love you Kida. That was never something I doubted what I did was horrible. But I did it, and I love you. I don't care how long it take s for you to forgive me, I don't care if we have to start over. I just want you back, by myside. You always believed in me and saw the good in me, and I threw it all away I will do what I have to do to get you back." Zuko said

He then pulled me into a kiss. Then he pulled away and left.
