Chapter 2

Pit Stop

Zuko's Ship

"I know where the Avatar is; go tell the helmsmen to change chores for Katawise Island." Zuco said as he walked to his room.

"Will you go tell the helmsmen to head towards Katawise Island?" Iroh said to a solder behind him.

Meanwhile on Katawise Island

"Boys, I am fine. I don't need a sleeping bag," said Kaori.

"You'll freeze," Katara said with concern in her voice,

"Don't worry about me, I have been running from the fire nation for weeks. And not once did I have a sleeping bag."

Aang and Sokka just stared at each other.

"So, Kaori what did you do to get the fire nation after you?" asked Sokka,

"You'll find out when the time is right, but for now lets sleep."

It was the middle of the night everyone was a sleep but Kaori, she was up practicing her earth bending.

Kaori built a wall, and didn't know she woke up Sokka, she was crying as she thronging fire balls at the wall. When she turned around she saw Sokka staring at her "Sokka it's not what you think. Please…" she was cut off,

"You're a fire bender!"

"Sokka please, you'll wake up Katara and Aang." Kaori said with tears in her eyes.

"They deserve to know, we all deserved to know from the beginning." Sokka said crossing his arms.

"Sokka just look at this."

She handed him a white chocker with earth and fire symbols on it, Katara and Aang where both up.

"How about you tell us the truth about why you are running from the fire nation and why they want to capture you." Sokka said giving Kaori back the necklace.

"I'm running from the fire nation because Lord Ozai gave me this,"

She turned her back to them and untied the back of her shirt. There was a scar on her back in the shape of a flame on her back.

"He burned me so he could always find me, then killed my mom, dad and brothers. As for my past I am the great granddaughter of Avatar Raoucka. That's why I can earth and fire bend, I inherited both," morning came, "We should go get supplies."

Zuko's Ship

"Uncle, are we there yet?" Zuko asked very impatiently.

"You must relax Prince Zuko. We will be there when we get there."

Zuko was already impatient and growing more impatient, he didn't even know if Aang was on Katawise Island it was closest to Sono.

Katawise Island

Kaori, Katara, Aang and Sokka walked into the shopping center Aang saw a yoyo store grabbed Katara and ran.

"Do you want to come look at the boomerangs with me?" asked Sokka

"No thanks Sokka." Kaori said still a little emotional from last night.

She had never told anyone about her past before.

"If you need any thing you know where to find." Sokka said with understanding in his voice.

"I'll be fine."

Sokka gave her a little hug before he went to the boomerang store. As Sokka was walking away Kaori was looking around when she noticed a jewelry store.

She was looking at a necklace with a rock that had scorch marks that look like the earth and fire symbols combined, when someone came up behind her and put there hand on her mouth so she couldn't scream. They had strong hands so Kaori wanted it to be Ruy, but before she knew it she was being dragged out of the store, in a way Ruy would never. It was almost like he didn't care if she got hurt. She tried bearing him but he acted like he couldn't feel even it, when she tried earth bending she was knocked out.

Back with Sokka, Aang, and Katara

"Sokka have you seen Kaori?" asked Aang.

"She was right there,"

Sokka looked at where she was standing and saw Iroh,

"Aang we have to get you out of here." Sokka continued, "Zuko's here."
