Author's Note: Sorry for the long break again, but I seem to have less time every day. Anyway, I'm happy about all the people following this and I'd really appreciate your reviews!
The giant air ship moved through the thick fog near the Western Air Temple. Zuko drove it, always looking out of the front window for any signs of the temple.
Suddenly a single cliff appeared out of the fog and he saw someone standing on it. At first he was not sure about it, thought it may be Katara, but then he realized he did not know this girl.
She was wearing Sun Warrior clothes. Her skin was tanned and her curly hair was of a very dark brown that shone in the morning light. The ship moved nearer to her and he had a hard time not completely crashing into the cliff. Hopefully nobody noticed that, at least no one came to notice that he had completely lost himself in the girl's golden eyes.
Shakily he shot her an unsure smile. She threw her head back and laughed heartily. Suddenly something inside the ship creaked and turned his attention back to his main task in a second. He threw a last look at her, but only saw her disappearing.
Sun hurried back down. Still she just arrived at the main floor when the ship had already landed. Katara and a boy she did not know hugged a man in brown clothing. They all looked very much the same, so it was probably a family reunion. Sun smiled warmly at the heartwarming scene.
The others, including Zuko, who wore the same brown clothing as the man, stood next to them, unsure what to do. Suddenly a strange, huge man appeared behind them.
He waved smiling at them, "Hi, I am the new one.". Sun raised an eyebrow while she joined them.
Katara turned away from the group, gesturing towards her, "Father, Sokka, this is Sun. She joined us while you were gone. Sun followed Aang and Zuko from the Sun Warriors."
Sun was surprised about this, but she hastily cracked a smile and bowed, "It is an honor to meet you.". "The honor is all mine.", Hakoda answered nonchalantly.
All somewhat unsure how to proceed they silently went to their sleep places.
On the next morning Sun woke up feeling someone staring at her. At first she did not see anybody, but then she spotted Zuko leaning on a column. As he saw that she was awake he hastily looked down. Everyone else seemed to sleep and Sun stood up and started to walk to Zuko smiling, thinking this would be a happy day, when something crashed into the temple side.
In a second everyone was awake and ready to battle. Sun also stepped up to them, ready to fight whatever was breaking through the wall. Another explosion hit it and caused pieces of the roof to fall down. Zuko saved Katara from one when he saw that Sun was standing there with them. "Sun! Get back with the others!", he called over to her.
Sun shook her head, "No, I'm not.". This time Aang answered, "He's right! If you stay they might find out who you are!". At this moment the wall broke apart. They saw a red clothed girl with a high bun grinning at them from a stand on one of two or three air ships.
"Stay back! This is family business!", Zuko shouted running on one of the falling wall pieces. And really the Gaang seemed to follow his orders, but Sun did not want to just let him sacrifice himself for them. So she sprung on one of the other wall parts and proceeded to the first ship almost unnoticed while Zuko and the girl were fighting.
She approached them from behind. Still no one seemed to notice her until she grabbed the girls' wrist, twirling her around. Her own body twirled as well and so she shot a ring of fire behind the girl once she let go of her.
She saw the girl gliding off the ship. For a moment she stood still in shock. The next thing she knew was Zuko grabbing her waist, pushing both of them off the ship as well.
The other ship had moved and would have squashed them if they stayed. Falling through the fog, Sun stared at Zuko, then on the ship, the girl and back to Zuko. He still had her waist in a tight grip which caused her to blush uncontrollably. And then, suddenly , they stopped falling.
