Hey you guys! -Re-reads story- HOLY FIRELORD OZAI IT'S BEEN HOW LONG?! A FEW MONTHS?! In that time I could have, I don't know, added a member to my family (a baby boy) and lost and uncle, along with discovering Fruits Basket and Naruto! Which I did. Anyways...

Zai

"Hey, you. Girl." The voice came from the wall where the door supposedly was. It was better to keep my eyes closed than to witness all of the bloodshed outside my little window. It had been six weeks since I'd seen the light of day. Four weeks since I'd spoken to anyone. Three weeks since the voices came.

Well? Aren't you going to answer the guard? Anger said.

Hush, dear, Zai's thinking. Mother answered.

You guys are all so silly! Toddler laughed.

"Hello? Ozai ain't gon' be pleased that you're dead..." The gruff voice said with a twangy accent.

"I..." I coughed. My vocal cords were stiff from underuse. "I'm alive." My voice was higher than I remembered it being. It was the voice of a broken soul. Before I knew it my arm was being gripped and then the experience of flying. Light burst behind the cover of my eyelids. The guard, who I'd presumed to be male, pushed me into a standing position. The feeling of skin against skin was so shocking, so unreal, that my eyes flew open instinctively. I shrieked.

"Shut your hole! Ozai'll have my head if he thunk we'da killed ya." He wrapped an arm around my neck and held a knife in front of my face.

Never give up without a fight. It read. Where had I seen that before? I racked my tired brain.

"Like my knife? I got it from your little friend the Prince." I was so startled that I jerked away, causing the knife to hit the right side of my face, nearly reopening the scar under my eye I'd acquired from an Earth Kingdom soldier my first day living in the woods.

"Hold your horses. We'll be there soon." And he spoke the truth. Soon enough we were under the cover of night, a relief on my amber eyes. This didn't last long because once again we were inside. I was pushed through a set of gilded red doors with ruby inlay. Inside the throne room it was comfortably hot. The little cell I'd been pushed into wasn't as warm as this massive area.

"Guard. Dismissed." Came a cruel voice drifting out from behind a pit of flames. The guard dropped me into a pitiful heap in front of Ozai's fiery throne.

"My, my, Azula was right when she said six weeks in solitary would break you." He was right. If I hadn't been captured I'd have already been aiming for his heart with an arrow. I coughed again, this time with blood spraying all over his stupid floor tiles. I admired my work.

"Don't look so proud, you little brat. I'll have you know that your little boyfriend -my son- is terminated."

"T-that means..." I whimpered pathetically.

"Correct. Zuko Kasai is gone. Dead."

A/N Kasai means fire in Japanese. Also I'm changing the rating to T.

Katara

*Six weeks ago...*

"You idiot."

"Well SORRY that I was too busy being CAPTURED to notice any given member of the BoomerAangs!" I sighed.

"Let's just focus on getting Toph for now. AND WE'RE NOT CALLING OURSELVES THAT!"

"Fine."

Toph

"Come on, it can't be that bad in here!" Master Wu called. I calculated that he was about seventeen feet and four inches away from me, being kept safe from my amazing fury by a wooden cage.

"It smells in here! And you are totally unoriginal! Combustion man already used the wooden cage bit in the episode 'The Runaway!'"

"Stop breaking the fourth wall!" Zuko's Fiery Princess made an appearance via Author Interference Magic, which she had borrowed from AmbrosiaMaestro/SlowBunny.

"Go away, this is my section of the story!" I yelled back. Some people didn't know when to leave a girl alone. A popping noise resounded and ZFP was gone.

"Shut up, pathetic girl!" That was Xin Fu's voice.

"The only one who's pathetic is you! You wouldn't need this dumb cage if you were man enough to beat me!"

BANG! A loud crash echoed through the building. I knew who it was immediately.

"Sokka and Katara to the rescue!"

A/N I hope you like this! My best chapter yet if I do say so myself. Also, Angry, Mother, and Toddler are the voices in Zai's head due to her chronic need to be around people, hence her constant troublemaking. Okai baii!
