Sephiroth looked around the corner and noticed only one guard at the door to the nursery. The guard was half asleep, so Seph was able to sneak up on him and knock him out. He slid the guard to the floor, then entered the room. Inside where the children of the many nobles of the fire nation. He made his way through the room and soon found Tom-Tom, sleeping soundly. He gently picked the child up and made his way towards the window. "And where do you think you are going, thief?" he heard the familiar cold voice of Azula behind him.
"I am simply taking a child away fro a demon." he replied.
"Who are you?"
"You can call me the One-Winged Angel, the bender of the silver flame." Seph replies turning around. He was in a long black cloak, with the hood up. He pulled down the hood. He was wearing a solid white mask, with holes where his eyes where. He stepped back and sat on the window seal. "Any questions?" Seph leans back and falls out the window. Azula rushes forward to stop him, she knew they where on the seventh floor. But he fell too fast. She rushed to the window and saw the man ignite his feet in fire and start to hover. He raised up to her level.
"So, why do you call yourself the One-Winged Angel?" She asks.
"This is why." he threw his arm out and suddenly a large silvery-fire angel wing formed. He then flew off, leaving an awestruck Azula behind.

Zuko was walking down to the docks when he was stopped by Azula. She was fuming. "Hey, Zuzu, what are you doing out so late?" she asked, her voice laced with poison.
"Like you don't know Azula, I am leaving with uncle to try and take over Ba-Sing-Sei."
Azula smiled. "I don't believe you. I have a feeling you, uncle, and Sephiroth are planing something." Azula held her hand out and suddenly it was surrounded by blue fire.
"What the hell, I thought that blue fire was a myth."
"Nope, it is true, and I have mastered it. You wouldn't believe how hot it is." Zuko backed up. "In fact, I think I will show you." Zuko stared at Azula wide eyed, then suddenly all he saw was blue. Azula laughed at his screams, then Zuko blacked out.

Iroh was pacing around the dock, waiting for Zuko to show up. "Damn it, he's late."
Jee walked up and put a hand on Iroh's shoulder. "Iroh, I have a bad feeling about his tardiness. I think you and Sephiroth need to go and find him." Iroh nods and motions for Seph to follow.
"Seph, take the east wing and the sleeping quarters, I will check the west wing and throne room." Sephiroth nods and rushes off to find his brother. As he enters the sleeping quarters he finds Azula leaning against the wall, laughing her head off.
"What's so funny, dear sister?"
"You will know when you find Zuzu. It is a fucking hilarious sight." Sephiroth stats off towards Zuko's room, but Azula stops him. "You might want to check the hospital wing." Seph looks at Azula and frowns. He rushes to the west wing and finds Iroh.
"Uncle, I think Zuko is in the hospital wing." Iroh looks at Seph questioningly. "No questions uncle, just follow me." Iroh nods and the two set off. They reach the hospital in a few minuets. When they get their they find a nurse pacing outside of the ER.
She looks up and frowns at the two. "You two might not like what you see." she opens the ER door, and Iroh and Sephiroth step in. On the center table is Zuko with a bandage wrapped around the left side of his face.
Iroh looks at the doctor. "What happened?"
The doctor frowns. "We're not sure. A guard found him screaming, the left side of his face burnt off. We gave him an anesthesia, but that is all we could do. The burns are nasty, and they will leave a scar on him."
Iroh turns to Sephiroth. "Go tell Jee to get the med bay ready for a patient." Seph nods and rushes out. "I need to take my nephew now." The doctor nods and Iroh picks Zuko up and carries him to the ship.

Zuko was in a long hallway, trying to get to the end. As he walked on, he noticed the walls turned from stone to ice. He finally reached a door at the end of the hallway. He opened it and saw a frighting sight. Two people where fighting. One was his father, but he was different. His body was covered in red feathers, and he had two great fiery wings.
The other was a beautiful woman. She had brown hair, and deep blue eyes. Her body was covered in blue scales, and she had two large dragon wings. She was also wielding a sword that had to be at least six feet long. Both fighters where bending fire at each other. Ozai had black fire, and the woman had silver. The woman smiled a wicked smile as she hit Ozai with a large amount of fire, and killed him. She then turned to Zuko and smiled peacefully. "Hi, Zuko."
He was about to reply, but suddenly a bright blue light filled the room. The girl fell to the ground, dead. Zuko rushed to her side and tried to wake her up. He looked around the room and saw a figure in a black cloak, with smoldering fingers. He charged at her, but she started moving her hands in a complex pattern. She pointed at Zuko and a lightning bolt fired at him. Zuko fell to the ground, clutching his stomach. "Katara..." was all he could get out before he died.

Mai walked in and found Zuko struggling in his bed. "Katara..." he mumbled before he stopped moving. Mai rushed to his side and checked to see if he was still alive. When she felt his pulse she sighed.
"He's been like that all morning. Always mumbling the name, Katara." Sephiroth says walking into the room.
"Do you know who he is talking about?" Mai asks, wiping away the sweat that has collected on Zuko's head.
Sephiroth shakes his head. "No, I don't recognize the name. But i do recognize it as a water tribe style name. They favor the 'K' sound, like we favor the 'Z' sound."
"Why would he keep saying a water tribe name?"
"I think it has to do with what we told you earlier. About how we where visited by a mysterious version of himself. He said in his dreams their was always a girl in a cloak next to him."
Mai nods and looks at Zuko. "What do you think happened to him?"
Sephiroth stares out the window and sighs. "Azula."
