Return of the American Firebender

A/N: Yes, the commercial rocks, but the episode will be so much better! Wonder how May will get out of this one? Well, just read the chapter.

Chapter 9:

May ducked the fire, but it caught the edge of her shoulder. She let out a scream. May closed her eyes shut. She was trying to hold the tears back from the pain. Her blood ran down her arm. May's breathing was like a half cry.

"You EVIL PERSON!" yelled Sokka. "Your just as bad as Prince Zuko!"

"Prince Zuko?" chuckled Zhao. "He's too soft hearted!"

"Soft hearted?" said Sokka.

"He refused to fight his father after he spoke out of term trying to save a new division." said Zhao. "He's a weakling!"

"He tried to save people?" said Sokka. "That cruel person."

"Well, I guess after being at sea for 2 years after being banished and sent to capture the Avatar as his only way home will teach that banished prince a lesson." said Zhao. Sokka was stunned what Zhao had said. Zhao turned and left the prison hold. Sokka turned his attention to May who had a couple tears coming down her face. The shoulder part of her shirt on the left shoulder had a burn going across if from front to back. The cut was about 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. May's shoulder screamed with pain.

"May," Sokka said softly. She didn't seem to hear Sokka. "Don't worry. When we get out of here, my sister will heal ya."

That sip that we saw I don't think was Zuko's." said Aang.

"I think it was Zhao's" said Katara.

"Me, too." said Aang.

"Just keep looking." said Katara.

"Zuko is going to kill us." said Aang as they skimmed the water on Appa.

"Don't say that Aang!" said Katara. "Well find them."

"Maybe the Blue Spirit can help?" said Aang.

"You mean the person who saved you." said Katara. "But you don't know his identity!"

"Actually I do." said Aang. "I could send him a message if we were to reach a port. Cus I might get caught if I go try to save them by myself."

"Okay, Aang." said Katara. "It's our only option."

"Trade me that lemur for the bird and we have a deal!" said the trader.

"That bird is half dead!" said Aang. "Well give you 2 copper coins!"

"Fine!" said the trader. "It's the most I'll get out of this bird!" Aang handed over the 2 copper coins and the trader gave him an old Fire Nation Delivery bird. Katara stuck the message inside the container on the bird's back.

"Okay, go find the blue Spirit!" said Katara. The bird looked at Katara.

"Go find Prince Zuko." said. The bird took off almost instantly. When it took off it almost came crashing down. The bird started flying though. Aang and Katara watched as it went out of view into the sky as it became darker.

"Prince Zuko?" asked Katara shocked.

"Yeah, he was the one who saved me from Zhao." said Aang.

"Wow." said Katara shocked.

The moon was gone. Zuko looked out at the endless ocean. Something caught his attention. A bird fell on the deck next to Zuko's leg. Zuko looked down at the bird shocked. Zuko realized that it was carrying a message and opened the container. It read in ancient Chinese:

Blue Spirit, May and Sokka have been captured by Zhao. I need your help if we are to save them. Meet me at the island near the old port tomorrow at Sunset.

Avatar Aang

"How did I know you were going to get into trouble May." said Zuko.

A/N: I know this chapter sucked, but it was the best i could do. I'm saving up for the next chapter. The chapter that will have all the action, fluff, sadness, and other stuff. Oh and thanks for the reviews!
