Okay readers this is going to be almost word for word from the episode. If you want to skip that's fine but… you NEED to read the last few paragraphs because they are important.


We had moved decided to move from the island to Ember Island, more importantly the Fire Lord's beach house. I am sitting in the courtyard watching Zuko and Aang practice. They are creating sweeping arcs of fire that dissipate into the ground. They each raise an arm and leg, sending forth streams of fire, before leaning forward and sending forth another stream of fire. They stand upright, assuming a final fighting stance before closing their eyes, relaxing their postures, and taking a deep breath. Toph and Katara come and sit down on either side of me. Zuko and Aang bow to one another, and the latter stretches his arms and walks away.

"Doesn't it seem kind of weird that we're hiding from the Fire Lord in his own house?" Katara asked

"I told you, my father hasn't come here since our family happy. And that was a long time ago. It's the last place anyone would think to look of us." Zuko said

Sokka and Suki walk into the courtyard. Sokka has a piece of rolled up paper in his hand.

"You guys are not gonna believe this. There's a play about us." Sokka said

"We were just in town and we found this poster." Suki said

Sokka then shows us the poster for the play. It depicts all of us.

"What? How is that possible?" Katara asked

"No one know our story but us." I said

"Listen to this. 'The Boy in the Iceberg is a new production from acclaimed playwright Pu-on Tim, who scoured the globe gathering information on the Avatar, from the icy South Pole to the heart of BA Sing Se. His sources include singing nomads, pirates, prisoners of war, and a surprisingly knowledgeable merchant of cabbage…"' Sokka trails off

" 'Brought to you by the critically acclaimed Ember Island Players'." Suki said

"Ugh! My mother used to take us to see them. They butchered Love Amongst the Dragons every year." Zuko said

"Do you really think it's a good idea to attend a play about ourselves?" Katara asked

"Come on, a day at the theater? This is the kind of wacky time-wasting nonsense I've been missing." Sokka said

"If we go we should probably make sure we don't look out of place." I said

"I agree we should probably go back into town and get some…" Suki trails

"Higher born clothes." Toph said

"Yes." Suki said

"Okay lets go." I said

We left the house and headed into town. Toph, Katara, Suki, and I go into one store and the boys go into a different. We all found a dress paid for it and left, we went back to the beach house to change. Then we met the boys outside the house.

"Wow." Zuko said

"Really." Aang said

"You guys look great." Sokka said

"Thanks." I said

We left the beach house and headed to the play house. We arrive and head inside and to one of the upper seats. The bottom row was Aang then Toph then Katara, the row of above them was Suki and Sokka, and Zuko and I were above them.

"Why are we sitting in the nosebleed section? My feet can't see a thing from up here." Toph said

"Don't worry, I'll tell your feet what's happening." Katara said

The curtains rises to reveal a set representative of the South Pole seas. Actress Katara, Actress Kida, and Actor Sokka are rowing their boat along. Sokka grabs our shoulder and points at himself then at the stage. The actress of Katara is an older more robust woman, while my actress is actually around my age.

"Sokka, my older brother. Kida, my dear younger sister. We constantly roam these icy South Pole seas, and yet never do we find anything fulfilling." Actress Katara said

"All I want it a full feeling in my stomach. I'm starving." Actor Sokka said

Actress Kida rolls her eyes. The audience laughs. Katara and Sokka's faces fall, I just shrug.

"You always talk about food." Actress Kida said

"Is food the only thing on your mind?" Actress Katara asked

"Well, I'm trying to get it out of my mind and into my mouth. I'm starving." Actor Sokka said

"This is pathetic. My jokes are way funnier than this. And why is Kida's actress so much better than mine or Katara's?" Sokka asked

"I guess because I meet more people than you did, and I was with people longer." I sad

"I think he's got you pegged." Toph said

"Every day, the world awaits a beacon to guide us, yet no one appears. Still, we cannot give up hope. For hope, is all we have. And we must never relinquish it, even…even to our dying breath." Actress Katara said over dramatically.

"Stop being so dramatic Katara. Your acting like the world is going to end." Actress Kida said

"Well, that's just silly. I don't sound like that." Katara said

"Yes you do." Sokka and I said

"Oh man! This writer's a genius." Toph said'

Actress Katara is slumped over the side of the canoe. An iridescent light suddenly appears from above and she turns her head upward. A model iceberg can be seen, the vague shadow of a figure visible from behind. The three actors stand up in the canoe.

"It appears to be someone frozen in ice, perhaps for a hundred years." Actress Katara said

"Bout who? Who is the boy in the iceberg?" Actor Sokka asked

"Stop talking and let's help him." Actress Kida said

I see Aang smile and lean forward in his seat. Actress Katara and Kida stand before the silhouetted figure, Actor Sokka hosting himself onto the propr.

"Ice Slice." Kida actress said

She performs a karate chop, mimicking waterbending. The silhouette disappears from view and the prop splits in half, sending forth a jet stream. An actress, mean to portray Aang, leaps up and poses, winking and with one hand on hip. The actress is visibly wearing a flesh-colored cap over her hair to portray herself as bald; the cap also bears the airbending mastery tattoo. She wears an excessive amount of blush on her cheeks and her overall physiognomy and demeanor clearly display her femininity. I look over at Aang to see him cringe in disbelief before leaning forward over the even more.

"Who are you, frozen boy?" Actress Katara asked

The Actress Aang laughs in a high pitch voice.

"I'm the Avatar, silly, here to spread hoy and fun." Actress Aang

She leans towards Actress Katara, laying a finger on her lips, and also motions toward Actor Sokka before upright and spreading her arms out in a cherry gesture.

"Wait, is that a woman playing me?" Aang asked

"Yes, yes it is." Sokka said

A crude, costumed-version of Appa suddenly bursts up from behind the quartet of actors, loud festival music starts to be played. The replica of Appa sways from side to side before leaping off the iceberg prop.

"An airbender. My heart is so full of hope…" Actress Katara starts

She clasps her hands to her chest, and drops down on one knee emotionally.

"…that it's making me tearbend!" Actress Katara said

She begins to cry and grabs on to Actress Aang's leg. She continues to bawl dramatically.

"My stomach is so empty, that it's making me tearbend." Actor Sokka said

He throws his arms up hopelessly before dropping to his knees, clutching onto Actress Aang's other leg, and crying.

"I need meat." Actor Sokka said

Actress Aang bends and puts his arm around Sokka's shoulder.

"But wait! Is that a platter of meaty dumplings?" Actress Aang asked

She points up to the sky.

I look at Aang whose head and arm lazily on the railing, unimpressed. When I look back at the stage I see that Actress Aang is sitting down, her legs dangling over the edge of the iceberg prop. Actresses of Kida and Katara, and Sokka's Actor are kneeling down.

"Ooh, where, where?" Actor Sokka asked

Actress Aang swings her arms and laughs.

"Did I mention that I'm an incurable prankster?" Actress Aang asked

The audience laughs.

"I don't do that! That's not what I'm like! And I'm not a woman." Aang said

"They have nailed all of you." Toph said

The curtains close and when they open it's a new scene. It's still the South Pole seas but now it's Zuko's ship. A man portraying Prince Zuko stands at the bow of the ship. The actor portraying Iroh stand at the helm.

"Prince Zuko, you must try this cake." Actor Iroh said

Actor Iroh holds up a platter of cake with one slice missing. Actor Zuko looking through the telescope. He wears a headpiece that ports the ponytail Zuko once wore, albeit slightly exaggerated, and Zuko's scar; the replicated scar, while realistic, is worn over the wrong eye.

"I don't have time to stuff my face. I must capture the avatar to regain my honor!" Actor Zuko said

"Well, while you do that, maybe I'll capture another slice." Actor Iroh said

He holds the cake up higher than before bringing it toward his face and proceeding to gobble it down ravenously and noisily.

"You sicken me." Actor Zuko said

I grabbed Zuko's hand and gave it a squeeze.

"They make me look totally stiff and humorless." Zuko said

"Actually, I think that actor's pretty spot on." Katara said

"How could you say that?" Zuko asked

"I think he has great hair." I said

"I have great hair too." Zuko said

We look back at the play. Actor Zuko has resumed peering through his telescope. Actor Iroh stands behind him.

"Let's forget about the Avatar and get massages." Actor Iroh aid

"How could you say that?" Actor Zuko asked

Katara smiles smugly and Zuko slumps in his seat. I give his hand one more squeeze. The curtains close and when they open were in the Southern Pole. The battle there is shown and his not shown well. Then the battle on the ship. Then it shifts the Southern Air Temple. Actress Aang is searching, and finds a tail behind a bush prop.

"Hey look, I think I found something." Actress Aang said

She tiptoes to the bush. Actor Sokka scratched his head while Actress Katara shrugs. Actress Aang picks up the Momo prop, a rabbit-monkey puppet.

"It's a flying rabbit-monkey. I think I'll name him, Momo." Actress Aang said

"Ugh." Aang said

The play moves on and soon they we are shown the Kyoshi Island scene. An actress Suki, holding up two fans. She lifts them up. Actor Sokka enters in the Kyoshi Warriors' uniform.

"Does this dress make my butt look fat?" Actor Sokka asked

The audience laughs, as does Suki. Sokka gives her an embarrassed look. As the play showed the scene

The play continues on and soon is showing the Omashu.

"Riddles and challenges you must face, if you are ever to leave this place." Actor Bumi said

Actress Aang dodges a swaying rock while a got gorilla chases Actor Sokka across stage. Actress Katara stands amidst a Jennamite prop.

"Ugh. Oh." Actress Katara said

Katara gives a disgusted look and sticks out her tongue.

The play moves on to show the pirate scene. The pirates run off.

"Why did you has to steal that waterbending scroll?"' Actor Sokka asked

"It gave me so much hope." Actress Katara said

The rest of the this scene went on to it actually did job, they even had my actress kiss Zuko's actor. The play then went on to show when Aang and I were taken by Zhao though they have it as Zuko capturing us and not Zhao.

"The Avatar is mine. Wait, who's coming?" Actor Zuko asked

The blue spirit jumps on stage holding two swords and has a large mask on.

"I'm the Blue Spirit, the scourge of the Fire Nation, here to save the Avatar!" the blue spirit said

The Blue Spirit walks across the stage waving his swords. The guards fall down and Actor Zuko runs around the platform and throws a red strip of paper to symbolize firebending. The Blue Spirit points a sword at Actor Zuko, who runs away. The blue spirit cuts Actress Aang and Kida down.

"My hero." Actress Aang said

"Thank blue spirt." Actress Kida said

The Blue Spirit walks off stage. Zuko, Aang, and I frown at each other knowing what really happened back then and what happened after. The play then moves on to show the Freedom Fighters. One of the major things they got wrong is they have ME being the Jet's love interest and not Katara. Actress Kida is crying and Actor Jet puts his finger under Actress Kida's jar and tilts her head to look up at him. He leans down so they lips barely touch.

"Don't cry, baby! Jet will wipe out that nasty town for you." Actor Jet said

"Oh Jet, you're so bad." Actress Kida said

"Okay let's get one thing straight. I never, NEVER had a thing with Jet. That was Katara." I said

Zuko nods and Toph laughs.

They play shows them just flying over the great divide. Then it shows us arriving at the North Pole.

"Don't go, Yue! You're the only woman who has taken my mind off of food. (they kiss) Wait, did you have pickled fish for dinner?" Actor Sokka asked

"Goodbye, Sokka. I have important moon duties to take care of. And yes, I did have pickled fish." Actress Yue said

Suki laughs.

"You never told me you made out with a Moon Spirit." Suki said

"Shhh! I'm trying to watch." Sokka said

The plays then goes to show the invasion, it has Actress Aang going into the Avatar State and even my ice guardians. They Actress Aang dressed in a Koizilla costume, stomps on them.

"The Avatar is back to save the day! Yay!" Actress Aang said

Actress Aang stomps three more miniature ships before tripping over her Koizilla costume and falling. The curtain drops, the audience sheers and Toph laughs. The rest of or disgusted.

"Ugh." Aang said

There is a brief intermission. We are all in the hallway.

"So far, this intermission is the best part of the play." Zuko said

"Apparently, the playwright thinks I'm an idiot who tells bad jokes about meat all the time." Sokka said

"Yeah I mean you are just an idiot." I said

"Or a guy who tells bad jokes about plenty of other topics." Suki said

"I know." Sokka said

"At least the Sokka actor kind of looks like you. That woman playing the Avatar doesn't resemble me at all." Aang said

"I don't know, you are more in touch with your feminine side than most guys." Toph said

"Argh!" Aang says

"Relax, Aang. They're not accurate portrayals, well except for Kida's. It's not like I'm a preachy crybaby who can't resist giving overemotional speeches about hope all the time." Katara said

We all kind of just look at her.

"What?" Katara asked

"Yeah, that's not you at all." Aang said

"Listen friends, it's obvious that the playwright did this research. I know it must hurt, but what you're seeing up there on that stage is the truth." Toph said

We headed back to watch the rest of the play. Play starts back up in the Earth Kingdom.

"Well, here we are in Earth Kingdom." Actress Katara said

Actress Aang open up her miniature air glider prop.

"I'd better have a look around to see if I can find an earthbending teacher." Actress Aang said

She then jump into the air with a cable lifting her up.

"This is it, this must be where I come in." Toph said

Actress Aang flies around the theater, over the audience, and returns to the stage.

"I flew all over town, but I couldn't find a single earthbending master." Actress Aang said

"Here it comes…" Toph said

Actor Toph enters the stage from a trapdoor beneath the rock prop and holds it above his head.

"You can't find an earthbending master in the sky, you have to look underground." Actor Toph said

He then throws the prop.

Aang, Sokka, Suki, and Katara laugh. Zuko and I look up from a piece of paper, stunned. Toph is still looking eager.

"Who are you?" Actress Aang asked

"My name's Toph, because it sounds like tough, and that's just what I am." Actor Toph said

"Wait a minute, I sound like a guy. A really buff guy." Toph said

"Well Toph, what you hear up there is the truth. It hurts, doesn't it?" Katara asked

"Are you kidding? I wouldn't have cast it any other way. At least it's not a flying bald lady." Toph said

Back down on stage.

"So, you're blind?" Actress Aang asked

She waves her hand in front of Actor Toph's eyes.

"I can we you doing that. I see everything that you see, except I don't 'see' like you do. I release a sonic wave from my mouth." Actor Toph said

He screams very loudly at the Team Avatar players. The audience and us grimace at the scream, Aang claps his hands over his ears, Zuko grips the railing in front of him, I lean backwards, Suki and Sokka hug each other in terror, and Katara grits her teeth while Toph looks excited.

"There. I got a pretty good look at you." Actor Toph said

The play shifts to show when Zuko and Iroh split up. it even shows when Azula hit me with lighting. The play then shifts to show the drill. I quite like how the Azula actress is ugly.

"If she continues drilling, this wall will come down for sure." Actress Aang said

The stagehand offers Actress Aang a rock prop, which she throws at Actress Azula, who blocks the prop.

"Haha, yes. Continue drilling. The city of Ba Sing Se can hide no longer." Actress Azula

Actress Aang throws two more rock props at Actress Azula. The play goes on and shows Jet.

Actor Jet wears google eyes and waves his hook hands around.

"No, Jet! What did they do to you?" Actress Aang asked

"Must…serve…Earth King! Must…destroy." Actor Jet said

He begins swinging his hook hand wildly at Actress Aang and Actor Sokka. A stagehand is seen throwing a hollow rock prop which floats down. Actor jet falls down so that he lands underneath the prop and crawls all the way under.

"Did Jet just…die?" Suki asked

"You know, it was really unclear." Sokka said

"He is alive some place." I said

"Really? How are you sure?" Katara asked

"Kida saved him." Zuko said

I was happy that they skipped over most of what happened in Ba Sing Se. The play moves on to the Crystal Catacombs.

"I have to admit Prince Zuko, I really find you attractive." Actress Katara said

"You don't have to make fun of me." Actor Zuko said

"But I mean it. I've had eyes for you since the day you first captured me." Actress Katara said

"Wait, I thought you were the Avatar's girl." Actor Zuko said

"The Avatar? Why, he's like a little brother to me. I certainly don't think of him in a romantic way. Besides, how could he ever find out about…this?" Actress Katara asked

Actress Katara and Actor Zuko kiss. Aang gets up a leaves. The play continues on a little bit. We see Actor Zuko, Actor Iroh, Actress Azula, and Actress Kida.

"Well, my brother, what's it going to be? Your nation, or a life of treachery?" Actress Azula asked

"Choose treachery, it's more fun." Actor Iroh said

Actor Zuko walks towards Actor Iroh and Actress Kida.

"No way!" Actress Azula said

Actor Zuko pushes Actor Iroh over.

"I hate you, Uncle! You smell, and I hate you for all time!" Actor Zuko said

"You didn't really say that, did you?" Katara asked

"He might as well have." I said

The play then goes on to show everything that happened after that. Even Azula killing Aang. There was another intermission. I got up and walked outside. I heard someone walk up behind me. I turn to see Zuko.

"You know I didn't kiss your sister." Zuko said

"I know." I said

Zuko looks off to the side.

"Zuko what…"

I was cut off by Zuko kissing me. His hands went to my neck, and mine wrapped around his waist. We pull away.

"Zuko there is something you should know." I said

"What?" Zuko asked

I was about to tell him, when Katara walked up.

"The play is about to start up again." Katara said

"Okay." Zuko said

We left and headed back into the theater. The play started back up again, it went on from after we left Ba Sing Se. I was hoping, wishing that they don't out me in the play.

Actress Katara and Aang are standing on one of the prop submarines.

"I just wanted to let you know, Aang, that I'll always love you. Like a brother." Actress Aang said

"I wouldn't want it any other way." Actress Katara said

The two shake hands. Actress Aang opens his miniature glider and flies up via a rope. Actress Katara waves. Aang curls up and uses his hat to cover his face. Actress Katara and Kida, and Actor Toph and Sokka looking around on top of the submarine.

"Hey Toph, would you say you and Aang have a 'rocky relationship'." Actor Sokka said

The audience laughs. Sokka laughs hysterically and Suki and Aang. Lifts up Aang's hat.

"I told him to say that." Sokka said

"I hope everyone's ready for the Invasion! Slap-a-pow." Actor Sokka said

The audience and Sokka laugh. The curtains close and when they open up again the play is set at the Royal Palace. Actress Katara, Actress Kida, Actor Toph, and Actor Sokka enter from the sides of the stage, while Actress Aang is dropped in from above the stage.

"We finally made it to the Royal Palace, but no one's home." Actress Aang said

Actor Zuko enters the stage, and Actor Sokka raises his boomerang.

"Actually, I'm home, and I want to join you." Actor Zuko said

Actor Sokka lowers his boomerang.

"I guess we have no choice. Come on." Actor Sokka said

They all exit stage left, except for Actress Aang, who is lifted off the stage. Sokka stands up, and stretches.

"I guess that's it. The play's caught up to the present now." Sokka said

"Wait, the play's not over." Suki said

Sokka sits back down.

"But it is over, unless…this is the future." Sokka said

The play did continue. Actor Ozai is on stage. He stands on the Royal Palace prop. An orange lantern held by a small cable with paper flames slowly moves across the stage.

"With the energy harnessed from the comet, no one will be able to stop…the Fire Nation!" Actor Ozai said

Actress Azula enters.

"Father, Zuko, Kida and the Avatar are at the Palace. They're trying to stop you." Actress Azula said

"You take care of Zuko, and his girlfriend. I shall face the Avatar myself." Actor Ozai said

They then disappear behind a smokescreen. Actor Zuko and Actress Kida jump on stage, while a rope lowers Actress Aang. The first thing I notice is the Actress Kida's stomach has gotten bigger. Katara and I look at each other. I look over at Zuko who doesn't see it.

"Aang! You find the Fire Lord, Kida and I will hold her off." Actor Zuko said

The cable lifts Actress Aang off stage. Actress Azula walks onto stage.

"You are no longer my brother. You and your little girlfriend are the enemy." Actress Azula said

"No! I am the rightful heir to the throne." Actor Zuko said

He then moved and placed his hand on Actress Kida's stomach.

"Then my child after me." Actor Zuko said

All of Team Avatar turns and looks at me. I get up and leave the theater, I start to cry, and I don't stop crying or walking till I get back to the beach house, and in my room.

Zuko's Pov:

I watch Actress Azula kill Actor Zuko and Actress Kida. Then I watch the Actor of my father kill Actress Aang. But I don't pay attention I just think about Kida leaving after the Zuko Actor said the Actress Kida was pregnant. When the play was over we got up and headed back to the beach house. I noticed that everyone was acting weird.

"That…wasn't a good play." I said

"I'll say." Aang said

"No kidding" Katara said

"Horrible." Suki said

"You said it." Toph said

"But the effects were decent." Sokka said

We walked in silence a bit longer.

"Is what Actor Zuko hinted to true?" I asked

"What do you mean?" Katara asked

They all looked nervous.

"Is Kida pregnant?" I asked
