Meanwhile, on a train, passengers were shocked to see the Earth King, who was standing in the middle of the cart surrounded by guards.

Kuei was Feeling strange from exposition. "So this is what a train is like? I didn't realize it would be this ... public."

"So you've never been outside the Upper Ring before?" Katara asked.

"I've never been outside the palace." Katara and Sokka looked at each other; the Earth King looked outside and saw Aang flying on Appa. "Now that's the way to travel." Kuei Looked at Katara and Sokka. "So, may I ask where we're going?"

"Underneath Lake Laogai, Your Kingliness. To the Dai Li's secret headquarters. You're about to see where all the brainwashing and conspiring took place." Sokka said.

On the shores of Lake Laogai, The team stood on the shore beside the Earth King and his guards. Reiko stepped to the edge of the water, and with a hop, revealed the the secret path to the hatch door entrance, though discovered it had been destroyed.

"It's gone!" Reiko said.

"Oh don't tell me- !" Sokka Gave a thumbs up and a fake smile. "That's okay. Still got my positive attitude."

"The Dai Li must've known we were coming and destroyed the evidence!" Katara said.

Kuei Looked suspicious. "Hm ..." Kuei was Sarcastic. "That seems awfully convenient."

"Hey, if anything, this proves the conspiracy exists even more." Sokka said.

"Long Feng was right. This was a waste of time." Kuei Turned to leave. "If you'll excuse me, I'm going back to the palace."

Katara Smiled with realization. "The wall. They'll never be able to cover that up in time."

"Oh, yeah." Aang Hopped to in front of the king. "If you come with us to the Outer Wall, we can prove to you that the secret war is real."

"No Earth King has ever been to the Outer Wall." Kuei Walked past Aang. "I don't have any more time for this nonsense." Aang looked depressed.

Sokka Ran up to them. "If you come with us, this time you can ride on Appa." The Earth King stopped as Appa lowed in the background. A pleased smile grew on his face.

En route to the Outer Wall. The Earth King was riding on Appa, holding on for dear life and screaming at the top of his lungs in fear, his clothes flapping in the wind.

"First time flying?" Reiko said.

"It's both thrilling and terrifying!" Kuei said.

"Yeah. I hate it too." Reiko said.

"I have to be honest with you: part of me really hopes that what you're telling me about this war isn't true." Kuei said.

"I wish it wasn't." Aang said.

Meanwhile at the apartment, Kurai again placed the moist cloth over Zuko's feverish forehead.

Zuko was having a dream that he is the Fire Lord, with no scar on his eye. One red and one blue dragon appear and started circling around the pillars on each side of him. The blue dragon started circling around Zuko.

The Blue Dragon spoke In Azula's voice. "It's getting late. Are you planning to retire soon, my lord?"

"I'm not tired." Zuko said.

Blue Dragon spoke Into Zuko's ear. "Relax, Fire Lord Zuko. Just let go. Give in to it. Shut your eyes for a while."

Zuko slowly started to shut his eyes but widely opened them upon hearing the other dragon.

The Red Dragon spoke in Kurai's Voice. "No, Fire Lord Zuko! Do not listen to the blue dragon. You should get out of here right now. Go! Before it's too late!" Both dragons were poised to either side of Zuko.

"Sleep now, Fire Lord Zuko." Blue Dragon said.

The dragons disappeared, and the room they're in, as well as the guards watching Zuko, crumbled to nothing. The blue dragon reappeared in front of him. Two golden eyes appeared, followed by the face of the blue dragon, which closed rapidly.

"Sleep." The Blue Dragon's Voice grew louder and more hostile as it continued talking. "Just like mother!"

The Blue Dragon Charged at Zuko and opened its mouth. Inside the dragon's mouth, Zuko saw his mother, Ursa. Within that darkness, Ursa dropped her hood.

"Zuko! Help me!" Ursa cried.

Zuko was distraught.

Zuko disappeared through the floor. The sleeping Zuko started sweating.
