Finally Free

by ButterflyMiko

Aang is in the Spirit World when he comes upon the Kitsune Spirit. She begs him to find and free her from her bondage. Reiko explains that after being reborn into this world as a human girl, her powers were discovered by mercenaries of the Fire Nation, and they captured her and force her to use her powers for them. Aang promises to save her.

6. Complications

"You saw the Blue Spirit?" Katara yelled. "And you didn't warn us?"

"He's a good guy Katara." Aang protested. "He's helped us before."

"But we don't know anything about him." Sokka said. "It's not safe. Warn us next time you see him."

Reiko shook her head. "He's good. I can tell."

"Believe her." Aang said. "She is a wise spirit."

"Aang." Katara said. "I know you want to see the good in everyone, but—"

"No buts!" Reiko said. "I won't let you go after the Blue Spirit. He's under my protection."

"Well I'm not going up against a spirit." Sokka said. "Best back down Katara."

But Katara would not back down. No chance.
