Part Two. Chapter Three.
Disclaimer: I do not own anyone except Katrina, Takeo, Dagger's Point, and Rayna.

Zuko and Katrina had been waiting several months. In the mean time, Zuko spent all of his free time with Katrina, making up for the past.

While Zuko and Katrina waited, the others got to know each other better, too. Katara and Aang had immediately come to like Rayna, but it took Sokka awhile. If you're wondering how Dagger's Point traveled with them, he just sat on Appa's saddle with everyone else.
One day, Aang and Rayna were practicing firebending when a tremor knocked both of them down.
"Earthbenders!" Sokka shouted. He ran to Rayna and threw her cloak around her. "Get out of here. Meet us later," Sokka whispered to her.
Aang had already saddled Dagger's Point and was leading him to where Rayna was. She hugged Katara and jumped on the black horse. Rayna then spurred the horse into a gallop and raced off.
Just in time. The earthbenders raced into their camp on the large birds. (As seen in the spirit world episode) Sokka whipped around and saw that Rayna was a dot in the distance.
Good.
"Who do you think you are to camp on Earth Kingdom land?" one solider asked.
"I Think I'm the Avatar and I think I'm allowed to camp wherever I want!" Aang retorted.
"The Avatar? Well then why don't you stay in town sir? There is room," another solider said.
"I like to rough it. Now leave me and my friends alone!" Aang said angrily.
"Yes sir!" all three soldiers shouted and scrambled away.
Aang chuckled. "It's nice being the Avatar," he said.
"Yes, now we must go find Rayna," Sokka said.
Aang and Katara looked at each other with raised eyebrows.
"Ok Sokka," Aang said and winked at him. Sokka blushed a bright red and walked away.
While Aang, Sokka, and Katara were looking for Aang, so were Zuko and Katrina.
They had given up the waiting tactic and searched for her. She was last seen near the city of Omashu.
Prince Zuko and Princess Katrina had been searching for hours. They were riding the Komodo Rhinos so the process was kind of slow.
All their work finally paid off when a black blur raced by them.
"Follow it!" Zuko commanded to his sister and soldiers. They spurred the rhinos into a faster gait and raced after the blur.
After about an hour, the rhinos got very tired and needed to rest.
"Prince Zuko, we are not even entirely sure that that is Rayna," Katrina said, for her brother needed to calm down.
Just then a shadow was cast over everybody, for Appa soared overhead.
"Follow him!" Zuko shouted. "Back to the ship! Quickly! I don't want to lose his trail!"
Great, Katrina thought, just what my brother needs, the Avatar.
They quickly rode back to the ship and followed the Avatar. Katrina then realized Aang was the Avatar! She couldn't betray him! She ran off and didn't hear Zuko's plan. It was the usual. Capture the girl, Avatar comes and gets her, capture the Avatar. Little did Zuko know that Katrina was going to play a game of matchmaker…
