Sorry late update. I had school.

After traveling for a day or two I was glad to be at the gates of Be Sing Se.

I flashed them my Earthbender pass and they let my through. Zuko got in just by being the Fire Lord and all that. They opened the passage way and I hurried through.

I walked through the streets trying to find the right house. People bowed to Zuko wherever we went.

What if they do this to me? I can't let anyone find out I am an Avatar.

I started to recognize things and sights. I ran into the small shop I used to my clothes from. I bought two cloaks and put one on. I handed the other one to Zuko.

"Why do I need this?" I sighed.

"I don't like the attention." He put it on and took my hand, I pulled the hood over my head. He did the same -still holding my hand. We occasionally got looks but no one paid much attention.

I saw the familiar house and picked up my pace, Zuko did the same but was still hesitant. I stopped in front of the door.

"We don't have to do this." I told him, he shook his head.

"I'm ready for anything."

I opened the door and yelled that I was there. My short, brown haired, mom came running towards us. She hugged me and looked me over, she gasped at my face.

"Dear! What happened to you?" Zuko shifted uncomfortably at the memory.

"I…uh…had an…accident." She shook her head and seemed to notice Zuko for the first time.

"Who is this young man?" She asked looking over Zuko and stared at his scar.

"This is Z-" I was cut off by her.

"He is the Fire Lord! When did you meet him?" She exclaimed, I would have answered until my dad came in.

"Lulu! When did you get here?" He hollered.

"I guess I will explain things now." I re-grabbed Zuko's hand and drug him towards the main room. We all sat down and my dad was the first one to ask the question.

"Did you learn Airbending?" He asked.

"Yeah. I did and I also-" I stopped from talking, I couldn't tell them. I could trust them but I just couldn't. Zuko gave my hand a gentle squeeze and nodded for me to go on.

"Also what?" My mom asked.

"I…um…found Zuko." I didn't want to tell them. No one else could know I was an Avatar, even my parents.

Zuko blinked and gave me a questioning look. I smiled at him trying to give him a hint that I didn't want to tell them.

"Well, how did you get your scar?" My dad looked at Zuko, appalled I tried to cover it up.

"I was stupid and got captured at one point. But I am fine now." Zuko's golden eyes searched my face but I kept a cool expression. My mom eyes got ten times bigger.

"Captured! Why?" Obviously coming here was a stupid idea. I sighed.

'It's a long story. Went back for something I lost and got stolen, then Zuko came and saved me." I smiled at them encouragingly.

"She didn't just get one." Zuko grabbed my hands and held them up, showing my scars that ran past my wrist. I took my hands out of his grip.

"But I'm fine!" I said, hiding my hands under the table.

"Honey, you need to be more careful." My mom warned, I knew Zuko still felt responsible for my burns and he didn't need to, they were my own fault. I had a feeling Zuko was going to bring up my ankle burn next, I changed the subject.

"I know, I know. You want to see an Airbending trick?" I asked, smiling and kicking off my shoes -I find it easier to bend without shoes. My dad nodded happily.

"Sure, baby." My mom said and motioned for me to go on.

I took a deep breath and made an air scooter, I hopped on and rode it in a small circle.

"That's wonderful." My mom smiled.

We continued talking for a little while, it was hard to leave out the other element parts. My dad was oblivious but my mom was a little suspicious. A few hours after the sun went down I said I was going to bed.

Zuko slept in the room next to mine and I sneaked over there after my parents went to sleep. "Hey." I whispered, Zuko turned over and sat up. His hair was all disheveled and crazy but he still looked amazing. I walked over to him and sat next to him.

"What's up?" He asked, slightly alert.

"Nothing. I just can't tell them, if more people found out they would bow to me like they do with you. I just couldn't handle that. I don't want to be treated that way." He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me down to lay with him.

"I know. Everything is coming at you at once, but you know you're not alone." He pulled me tighter, I closed my eyes and just felt his warmth surrounding me. He kissed the top of my head, I put my arms around his waist.

"I assume your dad doesn't know about this."

"Shh." He chuckled slightly underneath me.

I woke up to a bright light through the window. I gently nudged Zuko awake and we walked to where my parents were waiting.

We ate breakfast and It was time I told them I had to go.

"Mom." I got up and hugged her.

"You have to go." She whispered, I know she knew that I was in for something dangerous. I gave my dad a hug and walked out the door. Zuko pulled on his cloak, smiled, and took my hand.

We walked towards the entrance/exit. An old man started to fall in front of me and I bended him up with air, my cloak fell down and he started at me in amazement.

"Airbender!" He yelled.

"No! No, Earthbender see?" I bended the rock in front of me, unfortunately other people saw too.

"She can bend Air and Earth!"

"No!" I screamed, "Only rock!" I bended the floor up.

"What if she can bend other elements too?" Someone else yelled.

"No! I can't!" I yelled, feeling stressed and helpless. Zuko looked like he was trying to find a way for me to get out of here.

"She has arrows on her head! Look past her bangs!" A girl yelled.

"Stop!" I screeched, my hands flying up to my head like I had a bad headache. I started loosing control of myself. I couldn't control what I was doing anymore, someone else was taking control of my body. I could feel what I was doing but I couldn't see it.

I wasn't even on the ground anymore. Water was surrounding me with fire at my hands. I wanted to stop but couldn't. I heard Zuko's voice, calling me slowly taking me out of it. The water splashed down to the floor.

"Lulu! Everything will be okay. Lu! Come out of it." The fire stopped coming and I came down to the ground at a fast pace. Zuko caught me as I went limp.

"What happened?" I asked, having the energy taken out of me.

"Avatar state. We have to get you out of here." He picked me up and took me towards the exit. Everyone was bowing as we passed.

"No. No, no." I whispered. Zuko said something to the guard and he opened the passage way in front of us. He hurried outside and the passage shut behind us.

He set me down gently but was still supporting me.

"Can you walk?" He asked, slowly. I nodded and stood up on my own.

"Yeah. I'm okay." I took a deep breath and hopped on Nara. Zuko did the same and hopped o n his horse-bird thing. I moved my hand and gave Nara some food.

"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked, before we started to leave.

I shook my head, "No, maybe later. Right now I just want to get back."
