Thank you people who read this fiction. Sorry this chapter's a little short, but I just got the flu, so I needed to rest a bit. Don't worry, though. Since I can't go to school tomorrow, I will write plenty during the day. Hope you enjoy it, anyway. It's full of action.
It was the next day, and the sun was starting to rise. "Ah, the sun!" said Zuko pleasantly. He absorbed some of its energy. Katara, however didn't wake up at sunrise.

"Katara, wake up." said Zuko softly. She didn't wake up, so Zuko shook her.

"You get up early." said Katara sleepily.

"Of course, I'm a fire bender." reminded Zuko.

Katara gave Zuko a kiss, this time on the lips. "Good morning, Zuko." said Katara, who had now woken up.

"Well, I suppose you should go check on your people." suggested Zuko.

"Thats a good idea. I will." said Katara.

Katara entered the charred gates of the city. She didn't see anybody, just blood and burn marks.

She eventually found the people crammed in a corner.

"Katara! So good to see you alive! We thought you were dead!" exclaimed Chief Arnook.

"Do you need any help rebuilding again?" asked Katara.

"No." said Chief Arnook. "This is not the time to rebuild. We need Aang back. Now, go get him!"

"I'll do what I can." said Katara.

Katara left the city to go tell Zuko.

"So?" asked Zuko.

"They want us to find Aang." said Katara.

"We're going to have to make plans for a day or so. But I don't think she's going to much much farther." said Zuko.

"We're finally in Earth Kingdom waters, Sokka." said Zula happily. "We're only one nation away. Nothing will get in my way of achieving true glory."

"What's your reward for the Avatar?" asked Sokka.

"The reward is that the Fire Nation will win the war." said Zula with an evil grin. "Champagne?"

"Oh, sure. I'm thirsty."

They drank their champagne, and Zula headed off to go to sleep. But Avatar Roku's spirit appeared.

"Going anywhere?" asked Roku.

"Avatar Roku!" exclaimed Zula. She bowed down to him.

"You've been very evil, Zula. I'm not liking it." said Roku sternly.

"How dare you call me evil! I challenge you to a fight!" yelled Zula.

"Perfect. My job is to keep peace. What better way to do so by eliminating you?" said Roku. He then turned mortal. As a result, Aang disappeared to be one with his past.

Roku sped forward a fire kicked Zula to the ground. That was the first that had ever happened to her.

In rage, she punched Roku on the chin. She then took out two swords which she moved in a circular motion. A blast of air came from it, and it pushed Roku into the water.

Roku evaporated much of the water to create a sandy arena. Zula jumped to where Roku was. Roku quickly kicked sand into her face. Instinctively, she put her hand over her eyes.

She ran forward blindly and stabbed Roku in the stomach with her hairpiece. Roku yelled in pain.

"You may have won this fight, but the war is far from over!" yelled Roku. He set fire to Zula's ship and disappeared. Aang then reappeared in the air.

He went on his glider and flew away.

"No!" yelled Zula.

As always, please review. Thank you for reading! Next chapter: Stranded at Sea. Read it to find out what Zula will do about Aang, if she can even do anything about it.
