Katara and the boys were shocked, to say the least, when the girl appeared in camp. Katara also realized that this was the girl with Zuko that day in Chi – seng.

"You're not my Daddy." Aurora said, bowing here head in disappointment. She started crying softly.

"What's your name little one?" Katara said in a soft, claming voice.

Aurora looked up at her through tear filled eyes and said, "My name's Aurora. Have you seen my Daddy?"

"No but I'll tell you my name. My name is Katara." She said, kneeling down to look the little girl in the eye.

"May I call you Miss Kat?" Aurora asked, still upset over being lost.

"Sure thing Aurora." Katara said, smiling at her new nickname.

"Hey Katara! Who's that?" Aang asked, pointing to Aurora.

"This is Aurora. She's lost and can't find her way back to her father." Katara replied. "Aurora, this is Aang, my good friend, and the thing on his arm is his lemur Momo."

"Nice to meet you Aang." Aurora said. Momo then jumped over to her and sat on her shoulder.

"Momo seems to like you a lot! Would you like to come with us? We could help you find your father!" Aang said excitedly.

"Would you really? That would be great!" Aurora said just as excitedly, all traces of her tears gone.

"Hey Aang, Katara! You guys finished packing?" Sokka said, walking over to them. " We need to go soon and Appa –" he broke off his sentence. "Who's that? And why is she dressed in Fire Nation clothes?"

"This is Aurora. She's lost. She's gonna come with us to find her father!" said Aang. "And I don't know about the clothes thing. Maybe she's Fire Nation?"

"Yeah, I'm Fire Nation. But I'm also Earth Kingdom. My birth father was an earthbender, and my birth mother was a firebender. My real Daddy, the one that loves me, is Fire Nation." Aurora said, tired of everyone speaking for her.

"WHAT?" Sokka said, instantly flipping out at the words "Fire Nation" and "firebender".

"Could you excuse us a moment, Aurora?" Katara asked, wanting to talk with her brother and friend.

"Okay Miss Kat."

Katara then forcefully led her brother and Aang a little ways away so they could talk.

"Are you both CRAZY?" Sokka asked. "She can't come with us! She's FIRE NATION. She's even a firebender!"

"How do you know that?" asked Katara.

"Look." was all he said. When Katara looked back at Aurora, she saw the girl was playing with a small ball of fire.

"Oh. So? What's wrong with her being a firebender? She's a little girl, Sokka. She's lost. It's not like she can hurt us." Katara said indignantly. " Plus, I'm a master waterbender, and Aang is the Avatar! We can beat a little girl if we have to."

"Yeah Sokka, she's a lost little girl. Wouldn't you want to be helped if you were lost like her?" said Aang.

Sokka sighed in defeat. "Yeah, I guess your right. She can come, but we really need to leave."

They all then walked back to Aurora, who was still playing with her mini fireball.

"So, can I come with you, Miss Kat?" she asked Katara.

"Yup! But we got to leave so follow me." Katara replied.

They walked over to Appa, with the boys following them closely.

"This is Appa, my flying bison." Aang said, jumping onto Appa's back.

"Wow…He's really big. Can he really fly?" asked Aurora.

"Climb on and see for yourself." Aang said. After everyone was on Appa, he said "Okay, everyone ready? Appa, Yip - yip!"

Right when those two fated words left Aang's mouth, Appa launched into the air.

"You okay, Aurora?" asked Katara.

"Yeah… just a little startled that's all." she replied. "This has got to be the coolest birthday ever!"

"Today's your birthday? How old are you?"

"I'm six years old today."

Katara's mouth almost dropped in shock. She thought the girl was at least eight. She acted so much older than other six-year-olds. Soon the sun was sinking below the horizon, so Aang found a clearing where they could make camp and sleep. After they all laid out their blankets, they went to sleep, unaware of the turmoil caused by Aurora's absence.

(With Zuko)

"Sir? We have some news of your daughter."

"Well then out with it!"

"She isn't in the town or on the ship sir. We have reason to believe that the Avatar or Admiral Zhao have her."

"Search Zhao's ship. I don't care how, just do it." Zuko said angrily.

"After that, find out where the Avatar is heading."

"Yes sir."

Zuko leaned his arms on the rail of his ship as he looked worriedly out at the sea.

"Please, Great Agni, let her be safe." He turned and went below decks, for it was getting very late.

(Back with Aang and the Gang)

Later that night, Katara woke to a scream.

"Help! The monsters are gonna eat me, Daddy, don't let them eat me! Miss Kat, anyone, HELP" Aurora screamed. Katara quickly rushed over to her and held her close.

"Shush…. Its all right now, I've got you. The monsters are all gone."

Aurora calmed down a little and said, "Miss Kat? Is that you?"

"Yes, Aurora." She replied. She kissed the little girl on the forehead. "There now, feel better?" her only answer was a sigh of contentment. Then Aurora said, "Could you tell me a story?"

"Well, I don't know very many, so I'll tell you my story. You see it all started-" She then continued to tell Aurora about her finding Aang and them all traveling and Zuko chasing them. About the time when she was telling the girl about the Fortuneteller, Katara realized that Aurora had drifted off to sleep. So, Katara tucked her in, and gave her a motherly kiss on the forehead.

"Sweet dreams" she whispered, as she crawled back into her sleeping bag.

The next morning, they all rose bright and early, eager to help Aurora find her father.

"So, what's he look like?" asked Aang.

"He's muscled, but lean, and he wears his hair in a top knot. He also has a scar on the left side of his face." Aurora replied.

Just to make sure he knew who she was talking about, he asked if she knew his name.

"His name is Prince Zuko. Katara told me you guy's story, so I know he's been chasing you. But what if we sent him a note via Momo, telling him to meet us somewhere, on the condition that he can't try to capture you all? Me and Miss Kat could wait for him, and you guys could hide a few yards back."

"That's a great idea! Are you sure your only six?" asked Aang.

"I'm sure."

"I found a great place to meet!" said Katara, holding up the map. "It's called Lake Tsuchi. It's the perfect place! Aurora and I could wait by the lakeshore, and you guys could hide in the woods! We'd be safe from being captured because of all the water!"

"You're right Katara! Good thinking! We can get there in a day, so after we send the note, we need to get moving." said Sokka.

"Who's gonna write the note?" asked Aang.

"Oh! Can I write it? Please?" Aurora said excitedly.

"Sure. Here's some paper and something you can write with." Said Katara, handing the items to the girl.

"Thank you, Miss Kat!" Aurora said, then she sat down and started to write. After she was done, they tied the note to Momo's leg, and told him to take it to Prince Zuko. He finally complied when Aang told him he'd get a peach if he did the job well.

After Momo was safely in flight, they all packed up and headed towards the Lake.
