"I'll get you, Ozai. Mark my words. I'll get you for this."

"It's been a good run."


Ursa had done all the paper signing, meetings, plans throughout the day while Ozai stayed in bed...and worsened.

"Ozai," Ursa breathed out, gently waking the ill lord. She sat next to him and placed a cool hand on his forehead. She heard him let out a sigh of agony. "My poor Ozai." She said gently kissing his cheek. "Is there anything you would like?" She asked.

"No," His words gurgled in his throat. This was nothing Ursa had ever seen. He had only been ill for a couple days and his muscles were already thinning. He had been drinking his fluids and they even mixed in fruit juice for the nutrients he needed.

"Ozai," Ursa called, suddenly stern. "I'm going to get Mrs. Asa. She well help you, dear." She figured he would protest, but he lazily closed his eyes and let out a breath.

----

"Ursa," Asa whispered, tugging the queen over the side, outside of the royals door. "I have never seen this before. Not ever. Not even in my days in the Big Dry Land, but I do know some one who may know what this is. She lives on Ember Island."

"Send for immedatly." Ursa ordered. Asa nodded and bowed.

"For now, if it's contagious, I suggest he be moved to the infirmary." Ursa nodded and sighed.


"So, you're not going to teach me!?" Katara screeched at the old man.

"Um...no." He said, turning on his heal and leaving.

"Listen here, you old brute!" Katara yelled out, picking up on her Fire Nation vocabulary. "I did NOT come all the way from the Southern Waters for you tell me 'no'!"

"Well, that's too bad, little girl." Katara stomped and clinched her fists and teeth. She let out a small, girlish growl before taking a string of water from a pile of snow and whacking him the back of the head with it.

"Why, you little-" He seethed, glaring at her over his shoulder.

"What? You little - what? Say it!" She dared. He huffed and picked up his own stream of water and pushed it at her. She moved to the side and took the water he had tossed at her and tossed it right back. Caught off guard by the move, he stumbled backwards from her blow. Katara smirked and sent a small, deadly line of water at him. He quickly stood up, causing the stream to float right across his left temple. A small line of blood began to form.

He twisted and pulled up more water to throw at her. Taken back by the fancy foot-work he put into the move, it was her turn to stumbled backwards. She fell back, almost hitting her head on the fountain. Her necklace unknowingly got snagged on a small piece of pointed ice and tore.

She almost immediately got back up and tossed more water towards him. Sometime during this dual, they switched sides and the old man was towards the fountain and Katara had her back towards the group of people.

"Is that really all you've got, little girl?" Katara let out sigh of air and grabbed plenty of water. He stood, watching her in his own stance. She stood there for a moment before putting all of her power into this blow. She watched as his eyes grew large and she listened to his breath be knocked out of him as he was sent backwards into the water of the fountain.

He groaned and rubbed his head. He sat on the edge of the fountain. He had noticed something out of the corner of his eye before he was hit and he wanted to know what it was.

"What's the matter, Frostbite-Butt!?" Katara watched him as he looked around. She watched as he leaned down and picked something up. Her hand immediately went to her neck that was now bare. Kya had giving Katara her necklace before the first time they left. "Hey!" Katara shouted as she ran towards him. "That's my necklace!" She claimed and went to grab it.

"No," He breathed out, moving his hands from her reach. "I made this..." He said gazing down to the small jewel. "I made this...for the love of my life...Kana..." Katara gasped and stepped back.

"What?!" She intended the words to screech, but they came out forced and harsh. "Grangran was supposed to marry you?" Katara asked.

He sighed and looked down. An old friend ran down to his side. "What is it, Pakku?" He asked. Pakku held the necklace from his hand only using his thumb and pointer. "Oh," His friend sighed out. "I see."

-----

Katara was changing in the room given to her and Zuko when Aang walked in. "Oh!" He jumped back, closing his eyes. She was only in her fancy Fire Nation undies (bra included).

"No, Aang, that's fine." She said pinning her hair up. She wasn't worried about anything. He was just a little kid and she could handle him and if she couldn't, Zuko could and he would. "Master Pakku said he would teach me!" She said pulling up a blue pair of pants.

"Oh, that's great!" He exclaimed with a smile on his face.

"Mhm." She nodded pulling a shirt over her head. She finished dressing and took her hair out from the pin and started to comb through it.

'Wow.' Aang thought in his mind. She was just too beautiful.

"So," Katara started, looking at him through the mirror. "After I fix my hair; would you like to go and see if we could start now?"

"Sure." He nodded.

Katara finished and walked out with Aang following her not far behind like a lost puppy.


After pretty much a full day of training everyone met up for dinner.

"So, Sokka, how did your day go?" Katara asked.

"Pretty amazing." Sokka said in his Sokka-is-Satisfied voice. "I met a girl."

"Oh, really?"

"Yup. A pretty one, too." He smiled.


Dans la Nation du Feu


"Now he's facing some severe abdominal pain. All of these symptoms. I just don't get it." One of the healers breathed out.

Ursa rambled through Ozai's desk searching a blank piece of paper. He never really needed any since most of them were sent by the Earth Kingdom or painted up for him.

Finally, she found one. Her hand shook as she wrote.

Zuko, something is happening with your father. I know this is sudden, but you need to come home. Now!
