Chapter 6

Jet

Katara walked Luna home and was greeted by Ellen and Larry who looked at Katara and ran over and hugged her and cried, "Oh Katara, thank goodness you are alright!"

"You too, but do you know why they were after me?" asked Katara as she looked at Ellen.

"I am not sure. They never came back, I suggest you not to come to work tomorrow, take a break go riding."

"Okay. Thanks, I need to send my father a letter, or else he'll think I'm dead."

"Alright, come inside." Replied Ellen as Katara went inside and Larry sent the horses into the sables.

Katara was given a parchment and began writing,

'Dear Father, Sokka, and Gran-gran,

The illness gotten worse, I was on a ship that was going North but had to turn around because too many people were already dead, and no one would've survived the whole way, on our way back home I escaped and made it to the Fire Nation, I was hoping to make it to the Earth Nation, but the Fire Nation is nice too, I am staying with an old couple that lost their son in the war that happened two years ago. Anyways I have a job and shelter, I am being well treated and fed, it may be a while before I make it North so be patient, just writing to you now to let you know I'm alive. If you are looking for me I am at the Fire Nation Southern Capital, about 3 miles from the harbour and village. So everything is good, but I had a horrible time on the ship, so many people died, I think that everyone died before they even made it back home I'm afraid. Well anyways I have to get going now, I'll reply soon.

Love your dearest,

Katara.'

Katara rolled up the letter and tied it shut and asked, "When you go to work tomorrow could you give this to a National Messenger?"

"Yes I can Katara. Now why not go and rest?"

"Alright see you in the morning."

Katara sat in her bed, and stared out the window and slipped into her covers and went to sleep…

Katara woke up when it was misty outside; she looked out of the window, and opened the window and leaped out of the window and walked through the moisture grass beneath her feet, walked towards the sables she opened the barn doors and took out Luna as she mounted on and rode without a saddle and shoes, Luna ran against the soft breeze that filled the air with a sweet scent as they rode through the blossoms forest, and through the petals.

The sunlight rays broke into the forest making the moisture plants sparkles.

Mounting off of Luna she led her to a lake where she sat and dipped her feet into the lake and began waterbending….

CRACK!

Katara took her battle stance and commanded, "Who's there?"

Rustling came from the bushes, and Katara sent a water whip at the thing and was suddenly was grabbed from the back and was spun around, she looked at her 'captor' and gasped, "J-Jet?"

He freed her and gave her a playful smirk, "That's me, so Katara, what are you doing in the Fire Nation?"

"Uh, I gotten stranded here….what are you doing here?"

"What do you think?"

"Murder?" asked Katara nervously.

"Well aren't you a smart girl?" laughed Jet, but the laugh was cold and chilly, haunting more like it.

Katara backed away and scowled, "Who are you playing to murder now?"

"The Prince, heard of him, banished for three years until he defeated the Fire Lord."

"Prince who?"

"Man aren't you a silly girl, why should I tell you?"

"What! Why? Why are you still interested in killing people! The Ozai is dead, you can't murder anyone without a good reason, no wait, it's not right either way!"

"Well I can't have in my way now…AH!"

Katara shot a jet of water at Jet and froze him to a tree and hissed, "You are evil Jet, the prince did nothing to you, I'm off."

"Why you little bitch! I'll find both of you, and murder you both, so enjoy your life while you can!"

Katara ignored the threat and mounted on and sneered, "I will not hold back to kill you next time myself."

With that she rode off.

As Katara made it back to the farm she saw Larry working in the fields and waved and let Luna loose in the fields so she can graze.

Katara went inside and found a note and read,

'Here is your money I owe you, I gave you some extra to get some clothes and other things enjoy!

Your Friend,

Ellen.'

Katara smiled and slipped on her shoes and pulled her hair back and thought, 'I am really starting to like it here, maybe I should just start a life here…'

Disclaimer: AHHHH Jet! So Katara starting to like it in the Fire Nation, who wouldn't?
