Chapter 3

i wonder if Aang and Sokka know I'm missing yet? Katara asked herself. If they had surely they had have come to get her by now? I mean its been at least 2 days, how much longer would they take? Katara was huddled in a corner in her cell trying to stay warm. She was at the verge of tears and she wanted to be with her brother and Aang again. Especially Aang, she missed his high childish laughter when ever sokka had returned with nothing but a hole in his pants after hunting. Of course she was always the one who had to fix his pants so really couldn't complain there. But really if Aang and sokka did come they would fall into Zuko's trap.

" Aang where are you?" asked Katara wishing she could see him again.

Since their first meeting Katara had not seen Zuko once. About twice a day one or two guards would come in and give her more stale bread and a very small bowl of water. She was starting to wonder why Zuko didn't come back, she was desperate for some kind of company, well maybe not that desperate. Then as she was starting to wonder where her meal was a short old man walked in carrying a plate of tea and some fresh bread.

"who are you?" Katara asked the old man.

"you can just call me uncle Iroh or just uncle if you please." said the old man.

Katara casted him a suspicious look when he asked her if he would join her for tea.

"i hope my nephew has not treated you to badly, but by the look of this cell I'm guessing he has." said Iroh.

"Zuko's your nephew?" asked Katara in surprise.

"of course he is." said Iroh in reply.

"now please, as i know my nephew has not properly fed you, join me for some tea." Iroh asked.

Katara not willing to let down a decent meal agreed but was still on edge.

Now the old man came everyday, every afternoon to have tea with Katara. And Katara, no longer suspicious of the old man quickly opened up to him. Then one day he asked:

"Katara i have spoken with my nephew and he agrees that you may have some better living arrangements and your new room would be much warmer and i convinced him to serve you better food.

Katara could not help but smile this was the first good news she had heard in a while. Once Katara was moved into her own room (which by the way was much bigger) she felt a little better about her predicament. But she still missed Aang and sokka terribly. Oh what she'd give just to hear sokka complain again (yes she even missed that).

One day as Katara was stretching (to keep up her strength) she heard loud footsteps coming down the hall outside the door. Then before she had a chance to prepare herself Zuko marched in.

"what?" asked Katara in an angry voice.

"ugh, uncle wants to know if-if you would join us for-for dinner." asked Zuko in a annoyed tone.

"umm ok." said Katara in reply, curiously.

I hope that was a long enough chapter. I will update tomorrow for you guys. Ok aloha laterz love love. Hee hee
