"You sure you're okay?" asked Miko to Azula.
"Yes, I'm fine." answered Azula. "Please, don't worry!"
"But you were screaming at nothing!" exclaimed Miko. "Are you sure you're okay?"
"I sinabi I'm fine!" Azula spoke sternly.
Miko backed away.
"I mean, please don't worry about me." sinabi Azula madami calmly. "I'm fine."
Azula smiled. Miko gave the gang a frightened look, but Kaya gave an encouraging look to him.
"Okay..." Miko finally spoke. "Whatever you say."
Miko walked away and went sa pamamagitan ng Kaya.
"She scares me!" he whispered.
"Don't worry, she's probably having a rough time!" Kaya whispered back.
Hiru was standing with his arms crossed, observing Azula with a raised eyebrow.
"GUYS!" cried Lee as he ran back to the gang from a near sa pamamagitan ng village.
"What is it?" cried Kaya.
"KEEYA!" shouted Lee.
"Who's Keeya?" asked Miko.
"She's Haru's daughter." answered Kaya.
"Oh!" exclaimed Miko.
"Conquerors....captured...she...trouble..." suttured Lee.
"Whoa, calm down lover boy!" exclaimed Miko. "Slow down a bit, will 'ya?"
Lee took a deep breath and began to explain.
"I went to the near sa pamamagitan ng village to get pagkain and supplies like Kaya said," he beagn. "but then I saw Keeya, she was being captured sa pamamagitan ng Ming and the Conquerors, along with her father!"
"We have to stop them!" exclaimed Kaya.
"And save Keeya!" cried Lee. "They can't harm her!"
"Don't worry, Lee, we'll find Keeya." assured Suka.
"Come on guys! On Appa!" Kaya commanded.
Azula went up to them.
"Can I come?" she asked.
"It's a long journey." mentioned Hiru. "You'll get tired."
"Don't worry, kid. I'm use to it." replied Azula.
"You can come, Azula." answered Kaya. "Maybe you can help us stop Ming and the minions!"
Azula grinned with an dark look in her eyes.
"Yes..." she growled. "That would be wonderful."
Hiru raised an eyebrow.
"Well that was creepy." mentioned Miko.
He climbed on Appa's neck as the others climbed on the saddle.
"Appa, yip yip!" cried Miko.
Appa gruffed and flew off.
******
"COME HERE, YOU!" cried a Conqueror soldier.
Keeya and her father, Haru, walked along with the other prisnoers, with miserable looks on their faces.
Suddenly, Keeya looked up at the sky and her miserable look instantly turned into a bright smile.
"It's the Avatar!" she cried.
"What?!" cried the soldier.
Appa landed infront of them. Kaya was the first one to get out, the rest followed her.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't the Avatar!" he mentioned. "What an unpleasant surprise!"
"Let them go!" shouted Kaya.
"Oh no! I'm sooo scared!!" laughed the soldier. "What'cha gonna do, kid? Splash some water at me?"
Appa roared at the soldiers, they were all scared stiff.
"Um...let's, um...RUN!" shouted the soldier.
Soon, all of the soldiers ran for their lives.
Appa roared at them some more, while Momo jumped up and down screeching at them.
"That was fast." mentioned Suka with her fans raised.
"Awww! But I really wanted to fight!" whined Miko.
"Hey, Miko! Are you going to whine all day, or are you going to help us free those prisoners?" asked Kaya.
Miko pouted as he walked up to the prisoners and stareted to release them.
"KEEYA!" shouted Lee. "ARE YOU OKAY?!"
"Lee, I'm right in front of you!" mentioned Keeya. "And yes, I'm fine."
"Are you sure?" asked Lee anxiously. "Did they hurt you?"
"No they didn't, Lee." answered Keeya. "They didn't hurt me."
Lee ignored her answer while he exmanied her arm for cuts and bruises.
"AHA!" cried Lee. "There's a black dot on your elbow! They burned you, didn't they?"
"No they didn't, Lee!" cried Keeya as she yanked her arm off of Lee's grip. "And that's my birthmark!"
"Oh." mumbled Lee.
Keeya smiled and placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Look, I'm fine!" she assured him. "They didn't hurt me or the rest of us, thank goodness!"
"I'm just glad your okay." smiled Lee.
Keeya smiled back.
"Hey, where's Azula?" asked Kaya.
The gang looked around her Azula, but she was no where in sight.
"She's gone." mentioned Hiru. "Why am I not surprised?"
Kaya sighed as she walked up to him.
"Hiru, why you have to be like this?" asked Kaya to Hiru. "Azula is a good person now, she's changed!"
"If she changed, then why wasn't she here helping us free the prisoners?" asked Hiru.
"She probably went to paghahanap for madami prisoners." assumed Kaya. "Don't worry, she will come back!"
"Yeah, uh-huh." mutterred Hiru. "Whatever."
Kaya glared at him, her fists clenched.
"I can't believe your so selfish, Hiru!" yelled Kaya. "Why can't you accept the fact that Azula has changed!"
"Becuase she didn't!" Hiru yelled back. "How can you be so blind!"
"Oh, now I'm the one who's blind?!" asked Kaya.
"Yes, you are!" answered Hiru. "Your too naive to see the real danger that's going on around us!"
"Naive? NAIVE???" Kaya screamed. "I'M NAIVE?? I'M NOT SEEING THE REAL DANGER THAT'S GOING ON AROUND US? WELL, THEN I GUESS TRYING TO DEFEAT THE CONQUERORS AND TRYING TO SAVE THE WORLD WAS ALL A DREAM! AN ILLUSION! A PART OF MY IMAGINATION!!"
"That's not what I meant!" yelled Hiru.
"Yeah, well it sounds like it!" yelled Kaya.
"LOOK, THIS IS NOT ABOUT THE FREAKIN' CONQUERORS!!" yelled Hiru. "THIS IS ABOUT HOW AZULA IS PLOTTING SOMETHING AGAINST US, AND YOUR TOO DUMB AND BLIND ENOUGH TO EVEN SEE IT AND PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING!!!"
Kaya's knuckles were white from clenching her fists too hard. Her eyes began to swell up in tears. Her head began to hurt really hard, and her eye sight was blind from tears and furry, that she raised her hand and striked Hiru on the face. Realizing what she had done, she ran off while tears rolled down her face.
"Kaya!" cried Iro.
He looked at Hiru with furry in his eyes.
"Nice going, Earthbender!" Iro growled and went after Kaya.
Hiru, realizing what he just said, sighed heavily as he sat down on a rock near sa pamamagitan ng and rubbed his cheek where the red mark of Kaya's hand was.
"I'm such an idiot." Hiru breathed.
"Got that right." muttered Miko.
Suka elbowed her brother and gave him a stern look, while Miko whined in protest.
Meanwhile, Kaya sat sa pamamagitan ng a near sa pamamagitan ng lake. Her eyes where red and puffy from crying, she began to practice her waterbending.
Iro cam out through the trees and saw Kaya. He walked up to her and sat sa pamamagitan ng her.
"Hey." he greeted.
"Hey." she greeted back.
"Look, Hiru didn't actually mean those stuff." began Iro. "It's just that he's just trying to protect us from Azula. Which sa pamamagitan ng the way, he has every right to doubt on her."
"Even you?" Kaya sighed. "Why everyone doubts so much on Azula?"
"Well, I know she's my aunt and all," began Iro. "but, knowing how my aunt is from all those visits at the Mental Hospital, she really isn't the kind of person I would hang out with."
"Why are you telling me this?" asked Kaya.
"I'm just saying!" sinabi Iro. "She was the one that shot your father with lightning at Ba Sing Se, not to mention trying to shoot lightning at your mom at the apoy Nation, which almost costed my father's life."
Kaya sighed.
"Azula was suppose to be crowned as Firelord, only my father took the trono from her, right?" Iro mentioned.
"Yeah..." Kaya agreed.
"And your father defeat my grandfather, Ozai...Azula's father, right?" Iro mentioned again.
"What are you trying to say?" asked Kaya.
"I'm trying to say that...well, after all that in the past, she might be on to something." answered Iro.
There was a long silence between them.
"Just think about it." Iro told Kaya.
He got up and walked away, leaving Kaya alone.
Soon, she got up as well and went back to the gang.
*****
Azula huffed and puffed as she pushed the puno branches out of her way. Her hair got messy and stuffed with twigs and leaves, her arms and legs got scratched, cut, bruised, and had a couple of stains of dry blood.
As she pushed away another puno branch, she found her destination: The Conquerors' campsite.
Azula smiled evily as she headed towards the campsite.
She saw some guards heading towards her direction, so she hid behind a couple of bushes. When they were gone, she got out and headed towards a large tall tent she knew it belonged to Ming, the leader of the Conquerors.
Ming was studying the map of the world when she heard footsteps coming towards her. She turned around and saw a grinning Azula.
"Who are you?" she asked. "And how did you get in here?"
"Enough with the questions." Azula growled. "And listen to me."
"Who do you think you are, huh?" Ming asked. "Giving orders. Don't you know who I am?"
"As a matter of fact, I do." answered Azula. "Your name is Ming, and you're the leader of the Conquerors, who has been trying to conqueror the world and defeat the Avatar. You killed the bald monk, but forgot that he could reheincarnate into the susunod awatara in the cycle, and so he did, into his own daughter. And here you are now, pondering on how you're going to kill the awatara this time, and cowering in shame about your epic fail in the past."
As Azula spoke those words, Ming's eyes widen in anger. After Azula finished, she pulled a dragger from her sinturon and aimed at her.
"You've got some nerve there, Oldie." growled Ming. "You better get out now before I stabb you in the gut!"
Azula sighed as she paced slowly around the tent.
"I would pag-ibig to sit here and chat with you all day." began Azula. "But I've came here for a reason."
She sat on a near sa pamamagitan ng mesa as she spoke.
"For what reason?" asked Ming, still aiming at Azula with her dragger.
Azula shook her head and chuckled.
"Isn't it obvious?" she asked. "To kill the Avatar, of course!"
Ming raised an eyebrow as she lowered her dragger.
Azula grinned evily.
"Aren't you with the Avatar?" asked Ming.
"I have to, it's the only was to gain her trust." asnwered Azula. "You would do the same, wouldn't you?"
Ming pondered for a moment, then nodded her head.
"So, your saying that...you're not mga kaibigan with the Avatar?" asked Ming.
"Of course not!" answered Azula. "Why on Earth would I befriend with the Avatar?"
As she talked, she walked to a near sa pamamagitan ng mesa and started at a tiny bulaklak pot.
"Her father, awatara Aang, also her past life, defeated my father, Ozai." explained Azula. "He took his firebending powers away, and left him weak; so weak that he died in the first two weeks in prison!"
She smashed the bulaklak pot with her fist as she spoke the last sentence. Her chin began to quiver and a tear rolled down her cheek.
"You're saying that, you want to kill the girl for revenge?" asked Ming.
"You're doing the same, aren't you?" asked Azula.
"I heard that you came from a poor village, and the awatara didn't even thought twice about helping your people. Is that true?"
Ming lowered her head and gripped her dragger even harder.
"I'll always hate that Avatar." mumbled Ming.
"We have to act now!" Azula demanded. "We have to act now before she kills you!"
"But she's just a kid!" mentioned Ming. "She wouldn't have the guts to kill me."
"But her past lives would." replied Azula. "Believe it or not, the awatara can talk to her past lives, and they can give her advice. We must act now before it's too late."
"What do you mean we?" asked Ming.
Azula walked up to Ming and grinned evily at her.
"I have a plan to defeat the Avatar...permanently!" Azula told Ming.
Ming's eyes widen in surprise, and smiled evily.
"What's the plan?" asked Ming anxiously.
"It's simple." replied Azula. "We must kill the awatara when she's in the awatara State."
"Why?" asked Ming.
"When the awatara is in the awatara State, he becomes very powerful." explained Azula. "And yet, very vunerable."
Azula began to pace back and forth.
"In the awatara State," began Azula. "All of the Avatars from her past lives will be inside of her, if anything happens to her, she dies...and so will the other Avatars".
She grinned evily as she spoke the last sentence. Ming did the same.
"Let's kill her now so we can get over with it!" decided Ming.
"No, no." refused Azula. "Not yet. It'll make it obvious for them, and we'll probably be defeated."
"Then when?" asked Ming. "When will we kill her?"
"Soon, my good friend." answered Azula. "Soon..."
Azula laughed evily and hysterically as Ming looked at her awkwardly and laughed along too. While the reflection Azula's mother looked at her daughter with sad eyes, and shook her head in diseption.

Kaya walked back to where the gang was. Lee was sitting on the ground sa pamamagitan ng Appa, cuddling with Keeya. Hiru sat on a stone, toying with a pebble with his toe. He noticed Kaya appraoching and glanced at her. He got up and walked towards her.
"Hiru..." Kaya spoke softly.
"I know, I was foolish." Hiru interuppted her. "You have every right to be mad at me. I'm the one that's blind enough to not even realize what I've sinabi to you...I'm--"
Kaya hugged him so suddenly that made Hiru cut off what he was going to say.
"I'm sorry." she breathed.
Hiru slowly placed his arms around her waist and hugged her too. He closed his eyes and smiled.
"It's okay." he whispered. "I forgive you."
Miko glanced at Iro, he noticed Iro's fists clench in rage.
"Dude, relax." Miko told him. "Just relax."
"It's hard." Iro told Miko.
Iro, who was sitting down, got up and left, while Miko stayed behind, and watched his friend leave, leaving a trail of tears behind.
