Chapter 2: Two Years

As Zuko regained consciousness from being attacked by that, girl, he felt a cold sensation where there should have been pain.

He opened his eye, and was surprised by that fact. He could only open one. The scarred eye. He looked for the reason why he could only have half-way vision. And could not believe what he saw.

He was still where he had been when he entered the girls' room, but now the girl was kneeling next to him, and held something cold, like ice, against the eye she had attacked.

"Sorry," the girl apologized.

"At first I didn't recognize you. I attacked on impulse and fright. You should be grateful that I didn't go for my bat, and that my parents are at work." Zuko just stared at her.

"Who are you? Do I know you?" Was all Zuko could manage. The girl sat up, surprise was all that her face held.

"Zuko, don't you remember me? Well, I bet not. It's been a while. I was expecting you to come sooner, but you're only a little late." Sarcasm dripped in the girl's voice at the last sentence.

Zuko just stared at her. But now the cold was no longer cold, but warm. The girl stood up, and took what felt like ice with her. Zuko didn't want this. Because the pain came back.

"Darn! That's the sixth ice pack I've gone through in ten minutes! Stay here, I'm going to get another ice pack." And the girl disappeared through the door.

Zuko looked around. That girl somehow knew him. But how? He tried to remember what had happened just before she attacked, but Zuko just couldn't think of it. The girl came back through the door muttering.

"No more ice. Wonder why? No doubt mom. Why does she needs this crap every night?" The girl noticed Zuko immediately stopped muttering and kneeled down next to Zuko again.

"Sorry, all the ice has been melted, thanks to your firebending ability. So we're going have to go with cold water on a rag." And the girl put a cold, wet rag to Zuko's once good, but now purple eye. The water immediately turned to steam and floated upwards. The girl looked at the now dry rag, then at Zuko and grinned.

"Should have guessed THAT would happen. Well, you're just going to have to live with the pain, buddy." And the girl stood up, then offered her hand to Zuko. Zuko took it.

"Now, do you recognize me? Do you know my name?" The girl asked and pointed to herself. Zuko looked into her green eyes, and suddenly, he saw the innocent face of a 12-year-old girl.

"KELLIE!" The girl that was now Kellie started to clap her hands.

"Very good! Zuko! You just won!" Sarcasm dripped from her voice.

Zuko could only gape at Kellie.

"I can't believe it! Kellie! You look so much older!" Kellie gave a half-smile.

"Well, uh, Zuko, that's because-"

"You've had one heck of a growth-spurt since I last saw you! It's only been two months, and you're already as tall as me!

"Zuko,"

"And how'd you get purple in your hair? That's incredible!"

"ZUKO!" Zuko woke up from his trance.

Yup. That's the Kellie I know. A voice that can ring throughout an entire ship.

"Yes?" Kellie sighed, then put her hand on his shoulder.

"Zuko, it hasn't been two months. It's been two years."


Oo! How will Zuko react to finding Kellie has gone through 2 birthdays?

Darkangel52: yah. That looked like it really hurt. I mean, it knocked him out! I've gotten stronger in 2 years. (plz ppl, try 2 remember that this story is based on me and now remember that I'm making a prediction of how I'll b 2 years from now.)
