A/N: Hey guys, I know you probably thought I dropped this story, I didn't I just couldn't get any inspiration these last few... weeks? Anyway, I'm back! With a NEW CHAPTER!


000 Hana's PoV 000

"Hana? Hana? Please, please wake up..."

I heard Daitchi, but it was like I was underwater. Everything was so foggy... unclear...

"What happened to he? Why is she like this?"

Daitchi was talking (read: yelling) at someone...

"I'm sorry, boy, the One needs rest. Obviously something has gone wrong... we'll need to examine this."

"She's not an experiment she's my best friend! Do some-"

I couldn't stay awake any longer... so tired...

This went on for... I don't know... days maybe?

I woke up... heard someone saying something... then I felt so exhausted that I went back to sleep...

000000

I woke up again in a strange environment, Daitchi was gone and... a stranger was looking over me.

I jumped out of the bed, I finally had some energy, and used my Waterbending to take the moisture from the air and formed a semi-circle of deadly sharp icicles around her throat.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" She said, lifting her hands like a person getting arrested.

I examined her closely, she was, in my head, a 'Kaele' person. She was tall, slim, with sapphire-blue eyes and wavy dark brown hair that hung loosely to her waist that made her contrasting ivory skin lighter in comparison. Definitely the 'Kaele' looks. I didn't trust her one bit.

"Easy there!" She said in a musical voice as I made the icicles circle her ivory throat. "I'm a friend! Monk Hairi told me to take care of you after you fainted!"

I slowly let the icicles move away from that perfect skin. Then I let them dissolve back into the air. I was still crouched in a defensive position.

"Don't come near me." I said in a hoarse, obviously under-used voice I barely recognized.

I sat on the edge of the bed, still glaring at her, watching her every move.

She gingerly sat on the farthest part of the bed, farthest from me at least without being uncomfortable.

"Tell me what happened, but first tell me who the hell you are." I said in a wary tone, the hoarse-ness was still there.

"Well, my name is Lyre Victoirae Levesque," Her name was... unusual... she pronounced her middle name as 'vic-to-rie-yey'

It's interesting... I mused... that her first name would be pronounced 'Liar'.

"I'm an Airbender and I can use Spirit to enhance my voice and-"

"Wait" I said, "What do you mean used 'Spirit'?"

She looked at me like she thought I was joking. She must've seen the scowl on my face because she explained. "By 'using Spirit' I mean that I can use some essence of the Spirit World to power my bending." She said this without batting an eyelid and continued, "Which means that I can 'connect' with the Spirit World on some level."

"Wait, you mean you can enter the Spirit World?" I asked.

"Well, not exactly, that's an Avatar's job." she said, "but I can enhance my Airbending, make it stronger and stuff, and I'm not supposed to be telling you any of this." She (completely not subtly) changed the subject. "Anyway, you have a bit of tomato soup on your cheek." She said this, then she reached out to wipe away the soup smudge. I (over)reacted.

I quickly leaped off the bed, slapped her hand away and got myself into a defensive stance.

"Don't. Touch. Me." I said slowly, so she can clearly hear every word, even though my voice was still adjusting to my usage of it. "Clear?"

"As crystal." she said meekly.

000 Daitchi's PoV 000

I was walking towards Hana's room.

It's been exactly 3 days, 4 hours, and 27- no 28 aching minutes since Hana went into that Comatose.

Apparently, there has been 'no significant change in the One's condition'. Ugh. I hated it when these Air Monks referred to Hana as 'The One'. Hana would've hated it too, she hated being singled out. I smiled as I thought of her, then I grimaced, because she still hasn't woken up, or shown any signs of ever waking up.

I reached Hana's room and I opened the door gingerly, Hana's face shot to the door, glaring one of her infamous 'Ice Queen Glares' as the people back home called it. Then she relaxed when she saw it was me. I was relieved too... she was alive and awake. I smiled, then I saw her stiffen. I looked at the other person in the room, who had gotten up to greet me. Lyre, the girl who was assigned as Hana's 'caretaker'.

"Daitchi!" she said a bit too... excited... then I thought of Hana's harsh welcome.

Oh, no wonder she's relieved. Hana was probably fixing her Glare on her since she woke up.

"Thank. You. Lyre." That was Hana, sounding a bit (okay a lot) annoyed, "I'd like to speak to Daitchi. Alone."

Lyre nervously left the room. That was when Hana finally relaxed to the girl I knew.

Hana sighed, then turned to me, "Tell me what happened after I... fainted...?"

"Well," I said, "You were in this Coma for 3 days now..."

I paused, not sure if I should tell her the next part.

She raised her eyebrow, knowing that there was more, "And...?"

"And..." I said, "They're-making-us-go-to-the-Earth-Kingdom-so-that-they-can-train-you..." I said the last part so fast that it came out as one word.

I could see the darkness creeping up on her face until she showed a full-fledged grimace, "They're making us go to the Earth Kingdom?"

"Yeah... they said the Order took over the Southern Tribe so we can't go back and..." I said, "and they're making us bring Lyre along..." I whispered the last bit.

Then, I held my breath and got ready for the explosion I knew was coming.


A/N: Okay, so I'm not sure when the next part will come to me (I have the main events all plotted out but I actually just spontaneously write this.) so until then, what do you think Lyre will be like? Friend? Foe? Traitor? Evil Empress of an AU? Anyways, I hope you review! CCs and Flames are totally acceptable~
