Bumi and Tenzin had came earlier, the two sat down with their old friend to discuss what happened over the past 5 years.

Tenzin was now looking for a wife, to have children, aka airbenders. Bumi declared that he would never marry. Tenzin wanted to live on an Air Temple for the rest of his life, Bumi said he wanted to leave and/or be a Military official. Sozai stared at how the two brothers were such opposites. Tenzin was a calm, mostly serious, airbender, Bumi, was the energetic, hyper, non bender who dreamed of having being a Military Commander.

There was also something in their faces that portrayed that they were hiding something. Sozai could soon lose patience and yell at them as to what the lot of them were hiding, but he didn't.

"Dad – Dad, I really don't understand why-" The voice that Sozai dreamed of for the past 5 years was arguing with her father down the stairs, when she saw the two Fire Nation Royals, she froze.

"Visiting the Avatar's family, since they didn't even send me a note of being well or sick or travelling for 5 years. I didn't even know how you and your family were." Sozai said in a surprisingly calm voice.

"We are not citizens of the Fire Nation for you to know our whereabouts."

"Your mother and father were very close friends to my uncle; it's my duty to know if there is something wrong."

"Yes – but-"

"Um ... mummy, where is everyone ... and who is that man?" A little voice came from behind Sozai. A little girl of no more than 5, with very bright golden eyes, brown and pale skin was standing there looking quizzical. The eyes and skin were identical to Sozai's. He couldn't believe his eye. This girl was ...
