The Fallen Kingdom

Will Zuko Learn who to trust?

AANG

Ouch….ow...Aang sat up, rubbing his head, which was oddly wet. Attempting his best at standing, he swayed dangerously and tumbled back down.

What happened...

He tried to stand again, only to fall on his face. He was surrounded by weeds and a merciless sun beat upon his head. He couldn't see, and his headache was growing increasingly unbearable.

The atmosphere was dry, he had no water, and he could feel all of the food from the last couple of days begin to rise in his throat.

Something peculiarly red was sliding down his nose from his forehead and it began to drip. He shook his head in order to dispense of the blood, only to have himself fall down with a now splitting headache from a head that was actually split.

He knew if he fell asleep now he might never wake up again, he's heard of people who've died in comas.

As soon as he decided to tough it out, however, he felt a heavy force applied to the back of his head and the stench of burning flesh reached his nose.

Upon impact he instinctively fell forward so he could have room to turn around and view his attacker.

"Hello, Avatar," he heard someone say. The voice was female, and Aang knew he had heard that voice before somewhere. He racked his brains for any indication as to who this mystery woman was, but due to his recent trauma, he didn't think he had very many brains left.

"So nice to see you again, and so soon too."

Suddenly it clicked.

"You mean you don't see the resemblance?" The woman covered her left eye with her hand. " 'I'm searching for the Avatar to regain my honor.' " She said, in a deep voice supposedly in order to represent a male speaker. Noticing Aang's silence, she continued. "Go ahead. Laugh. It's funny."

It finally clicked.

"Azula…"

Aang looked into the solemn face of the fire princess before passing out.

I'M SORRY! IT TOOK FOREVER TO TYPE THIS BECAUSE I HAVE SO MUCH DRAMA GOING ON IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW! Maybe they should put me on Days of Our Lives… Anyway, drama is NO excuse, and I hope you can forgive me for the long delay! You're review are the entire reason for me being on fanfiction!

Say yes, say no,

In order to show,

Whether or not you forgive me!
