and let's get on with the fic!

(-------meanwhile with Katara and Zuko-------)

Zuko walked to the door and said, "You better get some sleep. There's a long day ahead of you tomorrow." He walked out and entered his own room, which was across the hall nearby his office.

Katara looked angry. And then she calmed down. "Well it doesn't help if I'm angry for now. I better get some rest just as he said, but I do have to admit... this room is awesome."

Katara walked over to a dresser she saw on the side and opened it. She saw a fresh set of clothes. A nightgown, and a red dress with a little dragon design on it. She grabbed to nightgown and walked into the bathroom to take a shower, change her clothes and get ready to sleep. When she walked out of the bathroom, she felt refreshed and surprised because she hasn't felt like this in a while because she was traveling with Sokka and Aang. And then when she walked over to her bed, she saw on her night stand a letter. She opened the scroll and it read:

Tomorrow morning you are to attend breakfast in the dress that we've provided you in your dresser. And then afterwards you will be able to do whatever you want, but aren't able to go into the rooms with a red flame on it, for those rooms are restricted. But at 2:00 sharp you are to report to the shrink's office, which is next to Mayor Zuko's office. And then afterwards you are to remain in your room, preparing for dinner, which is at 8:00. And lights out at 10:00.

Signed, Mayor Zuko's Assistant Yuki

After reading the letter, Katara put it on her night stand and climbed into her bed. I wonder how Aang and Sokka are doing. I hope they aren't getting into trouble. She soon fell asleep and then a few hours later, awoke because she was hungry. She wandered around the building, looking for the kitchen. She came across a room with a lot of cabinets full of files. She opened one of the files and saw then name "Katara" and just then to be caught by Zuko! (dun dun dun)

"What are you doing here?" Zuko asked suspiciously.

"Oh! I was looking for the kitchen because I was hungry and I stumbled upon this room..." Katara answered.

"Well the kitchen isn't in this room. It's down the hall. Follow me."

"Okay." Katara did as she was told and followed the mysterious fire bender to the kitchen. She looked at the clock to see 1:28. "What are you doing up? it's 1:30 in the morning!"

"I'm a light sleeper..." Zuko handed her a bowl of ramen and vegetable soup (yum!) and some chopsticks, and he sat down and started eating himself.

"Thank you." Katara picked up the chopsticks and started eating. After a while it has been about 30 minutes, Katara and Zuko went back to sleep. Zuko escorted Katara to her room. Nothing was said in the kitchen (well, that much...), and nothing was said when they were walking to her room. Katara opened the door and turned around. Catching one glimpse of Zuko, then walked into her room to fall asleep.

--------------Next Morning----------------------

Katara awoke to the sound of chirping birds near the open window. That window wasn't open last night... Oh well. I guess it's time to go eat breakfast.

Katara took the red dress with the dragon design on it and went into the bathroom and got ready. She walked out her room to see people walking about. She walked to the dining room, and sat down and played with her food. She didn't feel hungry, she just wanted to know about that folder with her name on it... I have to go back there. While she was thinking she overheard some conversations.

- "I wonder how the crops are this year."
- "I think they'll be bad.."
- "Why would you say that?"
- "I say what I think."

- "So how's Mizuki?'
- "Oh, he's fine. Although he's ill... I swear that boy is so fragile."
- "How old is he?"
- "Only 7."

- "I can't wait for my wedding day! I love my soon-to-be-wife so much!"
- "And I'm excited for you!"
- "Thank you."

Katara "woke" up and was interrupted of her thoughts by Iroh (Zuko's uncle if you guys forgot..).

"Ah, ginseng tea, my favorite. Hello there, Katara. How are you?"

"Well, I'm fine."

"That's great."

----and meanwhile with Sokka and Aang----

Sokka and Aang just woke up, and were thinking of ways to get back Katara.

"What are we going to do Sokka?" Aang asked.

"Maybe we can dress up as Fire Benders and enter the place and kidnap her, only we'll be saving her," replied Sokka. Aang twitched and then a little light bulb appeared on top of his head.

"I know! We can dress up as Fire Benders and enter the place and kidnap her, only we'll be saving her!"

"That's what I just said!" yelled Sokka.

"Oh really? I didn't notice." Aang smiled a toothy grin. Sokka sighed, "Look, we just need a way to get in there.. and if we use my idea, then how are we going to get Fire Bender clothes?"

"How am I supposed to know?... I know! how about we ask for them?"

"I don't think that'll work Aang." Sokka looked distraught.

"Maybe I'll be of some help?" The mysterious stranger came out from hiding. Sokka and Aang gasped.
