The 3rd Fire Nation Betrayer

Ok, so thank you for the reviews!

PLEASE READ THIS! Ok, so thanks to Lida, she reminded me to make a half cat, half… something else, and so, I'm going to go change Naomi's cat into a catbunny thing… so yah…. Erase that CAT stuff and change it all into CATBUNNY… Oh, and those of you who got those messages about my '3rd' chapter… well, sorry, but I had to put change cat to catbunny on those, and I hope that didn't disturb you too much.. anyway…

R&R

Naomi was on the line of sweating when they were about to enter an earth-bending village. She stayed back for a few seconds, not knowing what to do. Nobody, especially an earth bender, could trust a fire bender. She looked around, not seeing many people (only two or three in one small group buying cabbages or something), Naomi continued walking, putting her bag in front of the fire nation sign on her shirt, catching odd looks from people. One person inside his house saw through her 'disguise' and ran outside of the building, running in front of Zuko.

"Uh… There is a…. Fire bender behind you," He whispered, pointing at Naomi, who just stood there, backing up slowly. Zuko looked back at her, glaring.

"STOP FOLLOWING ME!" he yelled, turning his ostrichhorse around. "Now what do you want?" He asked, getting off his transportation… thing…

"Nothing! I just… I don't know" Naomi said, looking down, getting angry glares from people.

"Uh… You know this person?" the earth nation guy asked Zuko, not taking his eyes off of Naomi

"Well, let's just say… STOP LAUGHING!" Zuko saw Naomi giggling and yelled at her.

"Somebody's in trouble," she said quietly, in a singsongy voice. Zuko growled slightly, looking back at the man.

" We just met… I saved her butt, thinking she was somebody else, then she just… Started following me!"

"Is that true?" The earth bender man asked Naomi, not knowing if he should trust the stranger.

"Well… yah, but he-"

"But nothing! You know that's true, and that's all that matters!" He yelled, getting back on his ostrichhorse. He started to ride away, but the earth bender held onto his ostrichhorse.

"Let's let the young… Fire Nation girl finish her sentence," he said, thinking in his head, 'I can't believe I'm doing something nice to a fire bender.'

"Thanks… Well," She said, glaring at Zuko's back, since he didn't look back, that was the only place she could look besides the back of his short dark brown hair. (Yes, he has BROWN hair… it went form black in the first season to dark brown in the second))

"Anyway," She went on, smiling, " He is a-" She was cut off yet again by Zuko, whose temper was rising more and more on each word Naomi spoke.

"I am an earth bender who has nothing to do with the… Filthy fire nation," He said, not looking at Naomi. He ignored the man's grip on his ostrichhorse and walked off. Naomi just stared at him, not sure what to say. She was confused at what he just said, not knowing what his nation was now.

"Well… I guess he's right about the fire nation stuff… In a way," Naomi said to quietly to herself. Hating the fire nation after they killed her parents 8 years ago, she could slightly agree with him. But about him, a fire bender himself, calling his own nation filthy and lying about him being an earth bender. She understood why, yes, but to be that rude to a 10 year old. Naomi watched him get farther and farther away. She looked around at the people staring at her, and then where she saw Zuko, and ran after him, not even glancing at the earth bender as she past him. "What is wrong with him?" she asked quietly. She knew she couldn't catch up with Zuko, but she thought she would at least try.

Aang and the rest were still flying on Appa, and spotting the earth village below.

"Hey look! A nice village! I wonder why barely anybody's out right now," Aang said, looking slightly confused.

"Food!" Sokka said, smiling and drooling onto his boots. He was leaning over, not falling off Appa only because of Katara, who was pulling Sokka back so he wouldn't hurt himself… Again.

"Sokka! Stop, or you'll hurt yourself!" she said sternly, falling on her back as Sokka came back into 'conciseness' He stared at Aang. His eyes were wide, and he was just plain creepy.

"Aang! Land Appa so I can have some FOOD!" He said, grabbing Aang's collar and shaking him.

"Ok ok fine," Aang said, blowing Sokka away from him. "But we can't stay too long."

"Yes… Food!" Sokka said happily.

"That's all Sokka can think about these days… Food," Katara said, rolling her eyes. Appa landed, making a few people stare for a while. Nobody got off of
Appa quicker than Sokka, who immediately ran off, going to a food place, staring hungrily at the exotic fruits it had. He got out a few silver pieces, gave it to the man, and walked away, carrying at least 5 different kinds of fruits and veggies in his arms. He sat down against Appa, and stuffed his face, holding a cabbage in one hand, and a melon in the other, the other 4 pleasures on his lap. Katara looked at him and shook her head. She bought herself a cabbage and sat on top of Appa, waiting for the others to finish. Toph didn't get off of Appa, smiling as she patted her bag, telling the others she was good.

"Uh… I think I'll have melon… no; I'll have some rice… But I can barely cook it in anything, so I'll just have a… uh… that thing," He pointed to a largish yellow fruit. He paid the man and took his fruit and got back on Appa.

"So… Everybo-" He was cut off by the earth nation man from earlier.

"Excuse me, but are you the Avatar?" He asked, staring up at Aang.

"Uh… Yah. Why?" He asked, floating down to the ground. The man looked at where Naomi and Zuko went, then back at Aang.

"Well, there was this Fire nation girl here, and a pretty rude guy on an ostrichhorse. They went that way and-"

"What did the girl look like?" Aang asked, hoping it wasn't Azula. He could remember her at the beach, but with that lizard thing of hers, who knows where she could go in that amount of time.

"Well, she was pretty young, and was wearing this red outfit. She was also carrying a bag," The man said, reminiscing.

"That marks off Azula," Katara said, climbing off of Appa and standing next to Aang. "Well, we better follow them then," Katara thanked the earth nation guy, and climbed back on Appa, closely followed by Aang.

"Thank you!" Aang yelled as Appa flew away in the direction of Zuko and Naomi.

Azula awoke suddenly, looking around.

"He got away again," She mumbled, staring at Ty Lee, who was still partly unconscious. Azula pulled Ty Lee up to sitting position, shaking her. "Wake up!" She said, finally getting her friend to open her eyes.

"What? What happened?" She asked, rubbing her head.

"The Avatar got away again, and Mai is nowhere in sight. She got up, Ty Lee doing the same and looked around. "Must still be in the forest." Azula walked into the forest, not looking back at Ty Lee, who stayed where she was for a while, looking around, and then running after Azula to catch up. They approached a confused and tired Mai. She looked like she had just woken up too.

"Ok… that was odd," She said, clutching her shoulder and getting up.

"Mai, what happened to you? You didn't catch her?" Azula asked, a little annoyed.

"Well, no. But I did happen to see your brother," She took her hand off of her shoulder. "And she did this to me," she said, no emotion on her face. Ty Lee had a surprised look on her face. Azula didn't notice. She was too concerned about her disgraceful brother.

"So you didn't even get Zuko? Or should I say Zuzu?" She asked, one of her hands glowing slightly. Mai glanced down at it as though it was a piece of grass. Knowing Azula since her childhood, Mai was used to this.

"Well… No" She said, looking around. "But I think we could get to him and that little brat if we act soon," She said, walking towards the ship. Azula and Ty Lee followed, knowing where this was going. They walked across the ramp and into the ship, opening a door not too far inside, and got on their own big lizard… things, and riding through the forest, following their minds to find the banished prince.

Uh… Ok, that took a while, but I felt like typing this whole day… I didn't want to stop, so I might just be updating this story quickly… So, anyway, I hope you liked it, just
