"Okay, I understand now."
"Have you seen or heard anything about the Avatar?" Zuko asked eagerly.
"I'm sorry, no. I think that, somehow, I was transported here from my world. I know it sounds crazy, but it's the only thing I could think of."
"Right…"
"Anyway, what does the Avatar look like? I'll help you find him."
Zuko held up a poster of a bald child with an arrow on his head. "This is the Avatar. He's traveling with two Water Tribe citizens on a giant flying bison."
"Giant flying bison? Whatever." I yawned. "Um, can I go to bed? I'm tired." Zuko nodded, and I walked to my room.
I laid on my bed and tried to sleep, but couldn't. I was tired, but I couldn't stop thinking about Zuko. Was it right for him to hunt the Avatar? I didn't think so, but I owed my life to Zuko. I laid there for hours, and eventually fell into a restless sleep.
Zuko was lying in bed when he heard a sound coming from Rayne's room. He stood up and went to see what it was. He saw Rayne's door slightly ajar, and peered in to see what the sound was. Rayne was lying on her bed, singing softly.
"I'll always be there for you,
In the air, water, earth, and fire too.
Just look all around you everywhere.
I swear I will be there.
As long as the sea is ever flowing,
And the sun and the moon are always glowing,
Just look all around you everywhere.
I swear I will be there.
As long as the earth is always firm,
And the sun and the moon always turn,
Just look all around you everywhere.
I swear I will be there.
As long as the fire of your soul is bright,
And the sun and the moon never lose light,
Just look all around you everywhere.
I swear I will be there.
As long as the air around you is pure,
And the sun and moon always soar,
Just look all around you everywhere.
I swear I will be there."
Rayne laid her head on her pillow and cried, her shoulders shaking with sobs. Zuko silently left and went to his room.
I laid on my bed and wept. I was thinking of my mother. She had always sung a song to me. Well, before she abandoned me when I was a baby. I don't know how I remember it, but I do. I stood up and walked to the window. The gentle rain had turned into a small storm. I opened the window and leaned out. "Why did you abandon me?" I shouted, the thunder muffling my screams. "You said you'd always be there for me! But you're not…" I watched the sea churn and the rain fall. Eventually. I fell asleep against the wall, tears pouring down my face.
I know, it's a lame song. Please don't criticize the song!
