The scene opens to P'Li's prison cell where P'Li is breathing out cold air. The camera zooms out of her prison cells, showing her guards. Pan to the surface, where Tonraq, Desna, and Eska are standing outside P'Li's prison waiting for Lord Zuko and Druk's return. Druk lands on the ground heavily

Tonraq: Did you see Zaheer?

Zuko: The only thing I saw was a snowstorm heading our way.

Tonraq: [Stares at the snowstorm ahead.] That's not a snowstorm. That's him.

Tonraq and the group begins running toward the snowstorm Zaheer created to cover his snowcat. Zaheer continuously airbends to provide his group with some cover. The snowcat jumps out and Zaheer and Ming-Hua jumps off the snowcat afterward, running toward Tonraq's group.

Tonraq: I put you away once, Zaheer, and I'm going to do it again!

Tonraq waterbends a punch and an ice block at Zaheer, who dodges both attacks. Tonraq attacks Zaheer again, and he manages to dodge it again before sweeping Tonraq over. Desna and Eska begin attacking Ming-Hua with multiple ice shards at a rapid pace, which Ming-Hua dodges. The twins create a field of iceberg spikes, but Ming-Hua maneuvers through them with her water arms before she freezes the pair in ice blocks. She jumps up and breaks the ice on the ground with her waterbending before she glides down to P'Li's cell. A White Lotus sentry firebends at her, but she counters back, defeating him with little trouble. Another sentry attempts to waterbend at Ming-Hua, but she quickly strikes him. She freezes P'Li's prison cell's door, causing it to fall off of its hinges.

P'Li: Ming-Hua.

Ming-Hua: Let's get you out of here.

P'Li: You really came for me, even after Leaving me.

Ming-Hua: We had No choice, that Mohawk Boy Almost Killed Us, and don't forget What he did To Me.

(Flashback To The Invincible War)

Mohawk Mark, One Of Mark's Alternates Can Be Seen Holding Both Of Ming-Hua Arms.

Mohawk Mark: HA HA HA HA LETS SEE HOW GREAT YOU CAN BEND WITHOUT THESES!

(Flashback Ends)

(Author: I know Ming-Hua was born without Arms, but in this story she was born with Arms)

Ming-Hua waterbends the metal chains which restrains P'Li. P'Li stands up, removing the cuff on her forehead, revealing her "third eye" tattoo. She clings onto Ming-Hua's back, who uses two ice hooks to climb P'Li and herself up to the surface.

P'Li: We could have just taken the elevator. [Ming-Hua continues to climb in silence.] Show-off.

After the two of them reach the surface, Druk firebends at them. P'Li redirects the fire.

P'Li: I've waited thirteen years to feel this warm.

P'Li easily tames the fire before using her combustion ability to blast the dragon away. The scene shifts to Lord Zuko dodging a rock from Ghazan and retaliating with his firebending, before dodging again for another strike. Ghazan deflects Lord Zuko's blast before using a rock to strike Lord Zuko down. Tonraq tries to attack Zaheer, but the airbender continues dodging the blows. The fight ends with P'Li using her combustion on Tonraq. The criminals make their escape; Lord Zuko staring at their snowcat as it departs. The scene shifts to Zaheer and P'Li embracing

P'Li: I thought I'd never see you again.

Zaheer: I've never doubted it. [Kisses P'Li while Ghazan glares at them.]

Ghazan: Really. Right now?
