Disclaimer: Again I am sorry, I don't own Avatar. Because if I did I would probably be a bad owner > ;
As night fell Katara had all ready made Ashley one of her water tribe uniforms. Ashley was wearing it and gave her clothes to one of the Sisters at the courtyard and they gave it to a family. Ashley looked exactly like a water bender and now was her hair. Katara told the other two to stay out there so they both will be excited on Ashley's new look.
"Your hair is so short!" Katara said holding the top part of Ashley's hair.
Ashley grunted and winced when Katara strocked back. Katara looked around to hold Ashley's hair up. She saw one of the crystals like the one on Katara's necklace.
"Whoa." Katara said.
"What?" Ashley paniced thinking Katara is going to cut her hair off.
"Nothing.. nothing." Katara said.
Katara bit off some string and tied it on the crystal with one hand, very talented, she tied Ashleys hair up with the crystal band and used her fingers to comb the res that was down. She curled the rest of her hair. Katara took the band and letting it free. So Katara took the wavy part of Ashley's hair and tied it into a pony tail. So the straight hair fell to frame Ashley's face. Ashley still grunted and looked like she didn't care for her hair. When Katara was finished Ashley's hair looked marvelous! Katara pushed Ashley out of the curtains and Daren laughed. Sokka's jaw dropped.
"Wow." Sokka said.
Daren still laughing. Ashley glared at Daren.
"Take a picture it lasts longer." Ashley said to gapping Sokka.
"Ugh, right whatever." Sokka said crossing his arms.
Sokka noticed Aang running in the courtyard Kiru in hand.
"I am not the only Airbender!" Aang said.
Kiru walked up and Ashley smiled.
"That's great Aang!" Katara stated walking to Aang's side.
"I'm guessing your a Water Bender, Popcorn?" Kiru said.
Kiru giggled and Ashley said "Yea.. How did ya know?"
"Your uniform and..." Kiru stopped Ashley looked at her. "Your hair."
Ashley pouted and said "Katara is the one that did it!"
"What so you don't like it?" Katara said her hands on her hips.
"Heh, maybe." Ashley mumbled just then a Sister came up.
"You must leave now Avatar! The Fire nation is here!"
Aang's eyes widend then narrowed, "Appa!"
Just then a flying bison landed next to the group. Aang was the first to get up on Appa. When Sokka and Katara climbed up there was a moment of silence.
"Come on Ashley!" Katara said.
Ashley looked at the two girls. "Yea come on Butterscotch and Barbie!" Ashley said and mounded Appa.
The two girls followed and mounded Appa also. Momo jumped onto Daren's shoulder and whacked her in the head with his tail. Daren growled and grabbed Momo and placed him on Kiru's shoulder. Momo seemed comfortable and started to play with Kiru's hair.
"Aww so cute!" Kiru said.
"That little devil." Daren hissed and rubbed her face.
"Appa! Yip Yip!" The passengers heard Aang yell from the front.
"Well, this is interesting." Ashley said looking over the Saddle.
She saw the Fire nation on their Rhino's and Ashley smirked. She wasn't going to yell but she just stuck out her tounge and started to raspberry.
...
"The Avatar was here!" The prince said pulling back on the reins of his Rhino.
Iroh sighed and spotted the flying bison above, but wait there was someone looking down. His eyes widend and he nudged his nephew.
"What now, Uncle." The prince said and followed his uncle's gaze up to the flying bison but most importantly.. The girl sticking her tounge out.
...
Ashley opend her eyes then squinted them and found out they cought her.
"Damnit." She mumbled and went to the middle of the flying bison.
When she went to the middle Appa moaned of great pain and started to soar down. When he impacted with the trees Aang grabbed Kiru and jumped off. Sokka climbed down the saddle followed by Daren. Ashley wanted to stay on for, 'Personal' reasons.
"Hurry up Ashley!" Katara said while getting off the Saddle.
"Nahh.. I feel more comfortable--" Just then a fire ball whized passed her head sending bad vibes in Ashley.
"Oh.. now.. he's done it, THAT WAS LIKE THE FIFTH ONE TODAY MAN!" Ashley jumped off the saddle and landed on her hands and knees.
"Ouch!"
"Not a smart move." Sokka said cooly.
"Shut it bone head!" Ashley said and got up.
Katara looked around finding a river and pulled on Ashley's hand.
"Look! A River! Time to put your water bending in Action." Katara said.
As much as Ashley wanted to kick the butt of that Prince she planted her feet in her spot. Katara noticing and crossed her arms.
"Are you afraid?" Katara cooed.
"No! I mean Never.. I mean. Let's kick some fire nation butts!" Ashley said in a positive mood.
"That's what I thought." Katara said and Ashley followed this time.
Aang and Kiru were all ready fighting 5 crew members. Sokka was protecting Daren since she didn't learn her bending yet. Ashley and Katara started to push and pull the water.
"Are ya ready Ashley?" Katara said gesturing her eyes to Ashley's serious gaze.
"I alw-" Another Fire ball whized passed her head.
Ashley turned her head to find Zuko and Iroh.
"You knew the Avatar the whole time! See, Uncle, I knew it!" The prince said forming another fire ball.
"Calm down Nephew..." Iroh said cooly pating his stomach.
"You know them?" Katara said shocked.
"What's to be shocked about, I mean THE FREAKING PRINCE tried to take out my head FIVE FREAKING TIMES! THAT is not RIGHT!" Ashley screamed seeming Katara was dust.
Ashley growled and twirled around, planting her feet widely apart and her hands in a line from her back to her front sending a Water Whip at The prince. He moved to the right and back to where he was.
"You water bend?" The prince was shocked a little but didn't show it.
"What, cat got ya tounge?" Ashley said sending another Water Whip at the prince.
The prince dodged it once more and growled sending fire missles, and fire balls everytime. Katara just watching started to send water whips at The prince. Ashley started to pant and placed her hands on her knees.
"Not a time to run out of breath." She said to herself.
Iroh noticing and was going to tell his nephew but the prince just sent a fire ball at Ashley instead of listening. Ashley was hit on the shoulder to. Once on impact, Ashley was sent back into the river.
"Ashley!" Katara yelled.
With one gesture of The prince's hand Katara was held by crew members.
"Now." The prince said walking to the river looking into the water to only see his reflection.
Bubbles started to form and the prince smirked. When a figure popped out of the water and landed behind the prince, Ashley kicked the prince from the back into the water and twirled landing her left foot infront her right foot behind it bent a little her hands out stretched, a wave formed in the river and landed on all of the crew members, Zuko flying out onto the crew members. Ashley grabbed Katara's hand and saw that Appa was up and told Katara to get on. She followed and got the reins.
"Ok Appa, I have never did anything like this so just find Aang ok?" Ashley said.
Appa nodded and growled and set up in the sky looking around on the ground. All Ashley could see were trees.
"Ashley, Where is Aang and the others?" Katara said depressed.
Ashley got worried. "They couldn't have gone far!" Ashley said.
After hours of searching Katara had fell asleep and Ashley was straining to keep her eyes open. She also noticed Appa dropping his level in flying his paws were almost touching the ground.
"...Where are they?"
...
"Nephew, you caught the Avatar.. why are you not happy?" Iroh said pouring some Ginseng Tea.
"It's that girl.." Zuko hissed looking at the ceiling in his bed chambers.
"Oh ho ho, I thought you would pull along. She is quite a be-"
"No uncle!" Fire shot from Zuko's fists. "She made a fool of me... She will regret that!"
"Really now." Iroh said still shocked and downed his tea.
A silence broke out and Zuko sighed. He was never this determend to find a girl in his life.. But he had to. No one make a fool of Zuko and gets away with it.
