I opened the door, and peeked out into the hall. It was empty. Maybe they thought I wouldn't escape. I ran down the hall, and then whipped around, blasting air down the left corridor. Three men were knocked to the ground. I smiled and continued to run as fast as I could.
Where was my glider? I ran up to the floor above, and checked all the closed doors. The last door was open, and when I glanced in, there was my glider. I flicked my wrist and it flew towards me. I clutched it in my hand, but not before Zuko had his around my neck. We were toe-to-toe, and his grip was firm.
"I underestimated your state," he said angrily. I grimaced, and pushed my staff hard into his stomach. He released my neck and doubled over, coughing. I ran again, this time using the wind to propel myself forward. As I ran onto the deck, the sun was going down. Aang was surely back, and probably freaking out.
"Stop her!"
I began to run again, but this time to the edge of the ship. Fire flew past my face, and one caught me, hitting my back and knocking me down. I screamed at the pain of the burn. It was agonizing.
And then everything became a big blur, but I heard shouts and exclamations of fear. I don't really remember what I did, but everything was clear to me as I heard him call my name.
"Annchi, snap out of it!" Aang said frantically. I blinked, and collapsed. "Annchi!"
"I'm okay," I whispered.
The girl, which I was guessing was Katara handed me my staff. "We heard your scream, Annchi. When we saw you, your arrows were lit..."
I could sense something else in her tone of voice. "And?" I said weakly, staring up at her. She grimaced.
"You were Firebending... and not like a basic Firebender. You took fire from nothing, Annchi, you were amazing!" Sokka finished his sister's sentence. I smiled, rolling my eyes.
"We need to get to the North Pole," said Aang. "But I have to do something first..."
