Honor
The guard ended up putting them is cells right next to each other.
Sarah pounded on the door, "Let me out! Let me out!"
Katara listened to Sarah's pleas and cried. She hated being alone. Eventually Sarah's poundings stopped and Katara was left in silence. Katara could feel herself trembling as she sat on the bed in her tiny cell.
"How can I escape without Sarah here to help me?" Katara whispered to herself. She had been very dependent on Sarah lately and now she had to fend for herself.
After being alone for what seemed like hours, Katara heard the cell door unlock. She wiped away her tears and stood up incase it was Zuko. She wasn't about to let him have the satisfaction of seeing her crying.
It wasn't Zuko. It was a guard. He closed the door behind him.
"What do you want?" Katara asked. The guard didn't speak but instead took a step forward.
"What do you want?" Katara repeated, becoming scared. Why hadn't he answered before?
When the guard's eyes scanned her figure, Katara knew something was amiss. She saw something in his eyes. What was it? Her stomach lurched when she realized what it was. Hunger.
"What do you want?" Katara could hardly keep her voice from shaking.
"So you're they waterbender that has been traveling with the Avatar." The man finally spoke.
"Get out." Katara ordered.
"I don't take orders from prisoners." The guard was coming closer. Too close.
"Why are you here?" She questioned, afraid of what might be coming.
"I think you know." He grabbed her wrists and planted his lips on hers. She was shocked at the sudden movement.
She pushed him away. "What do you think you're doing?"
"Do you know how long it has been since any of us have seen a woman? I'm just the first to get you." Katara began to panic. He pushed her onto the bed and sat on top of her.
"Get off of me!" Katara yelled, trying to push him away.
"No." He kissed her again, this time forcing his tongue in her mouth. She gagged on the awful taste. She bit his tongue.
"Get off!" Katara shouted. She was sobbing uncontrollably.
"You're going to regret that."
He was about to take off her clothes when she screamed.
Sarah was sitting on the floor of her cell. She could hear Katara crying. All of a sudden it stopped. What had happened? Sarah guessed Katara had fallen asleep. Sarah decided to do the same.
"Get off of me!" Sarah's eyes shot open when she heard Katara.
She put her ear against the wall separating her and Katara. The shout had been so faint.
"Get off!" Sarah knew something was terribly wrong.
She concentrated on hearing what was going on. She heard a scream. Sarah ran to the door and blew it open. She didn't care if anyone heard. It would be good if they had. Katara needed help.
Sarah looked in a small window on Katara's door. There was a man sitting on top of the waterbender and he had just slapped her.
Sarah had to find Zuko. She ran down the hall, willing the air to lead her to him. She ran for what seemed like an eternity. Finally she reached the door leading to the deck. She threw it open.
Zuko, who had been talking with Iroh and some soldiers, turned in Sarah's direction.
"What are you doing out of your cell?" Zuko snapped.
"The Fire Nation once taught its children about honor. If you care anything about honor you'll come with me." Sarah pleaded.
"Why?" Zuko asked suspiciously.
"There's no time to explain. This way." Sarah turned and started to run back to Katara's cell. Zuko, his uncle, and the soldiers followed.
They quickly made it back to the cells. Sarah checked the window. All Katara was wearing were her underwear and bra.
"Let me take over Sarah. Become the Lady Avatar." A voice whispered in her mind.
Sarah felt anger surging in her body. Suddenly her eyes began to glow a bright yellow. She was no longer in control.
She kicked the door and it fell with a thud. The guard looked up in surprise. Sarah sent a mighty fireball at the guard. The guard tried to protect himself but it was too late. He had been badly burned.
He rolled off Katara in pain, clutching where the fire had hit. Katara sat up and moved over to the corner of the bed.
Sarah carried on the onslaught, sending several fireballs at the guard. He screamed, aching from burns all over his body.
"Enough!" Zuko's voice brought Sarah back to reality. Her eyes became their normal silver again and Sarah regained control.
"Katara!" Sarah murmured. She ran over to the weeping waterbender and held her. "It's okay Katara. He won't hurt you." Sarah grabbed Katara's clothes off the floor and covered the girl with them. Only then did she notice that everyone was staring at her, with the exception of Katara.
"What?" Sarah demanded.
"Why did didn't you tell me you were a firebender? Why did you lie?" Zuko asked.
"I didn't want anyone to know. Shouldn't you be taking care of that?" She pointed to the guard on the floor.
"Tell him to a cell, far away from these girls." Zuko told the soldiers that had followed him. "You may stay with the waterbender peasant. Zuko said to Sarah once the soldiers had left.
Sarah clothed Katara up and soon her friend was asleep.
Me: What did you all think? I got some of my ideas from Outsane's story, Superstition.
Gidget: What are you doing on the computer? You're supposed to be practicing your clarinet.
Me: Shut up. Keep guessing what James is looking for. I have to bake more cookies. The others were stale. Don't forget to review.
