The Flames of the past (Avatar: Zuko love story)

Chapter 13: The Waterbending scroll + note

Eventually, Zuko got tied up next to Mia. Zhao stood in front of the door with his solider, while Katara and Sokka were losing it all bit. Mia was still crying a bit and she did not say a word to Zuko, and neither did he to Mia. "When those doors open, unleash all your fire power!" Zhao commanded.

"How's Aang going to make it out of this?" Katara asked hopeless.

"Aang?! How are we going to make it out of this." Sokka replied.

"Would you please, shut up!" Mia yelled at them and both they shut, "Roku will help him!"

Through the gaps of the door, smoke rose and when the door opened, a bright light blinded everyone in the hall. Aang's white eyes appeared. "Ready?" Zhao asked. "No Aang!!" Mia yelled and she struggled. "Fire!" Zhao commanded and they all shot fire to Aang. A little bowl of fire circled around Aang, but it wasn't Aang. Everyone stood there with their mouths open when they saw Avatar Roku. The circle shrinied and got blown to the other way. Our way. The whole room set fire, and the chains melted away.

Mia fell on the ground and Zuko grabbed her up and pulled her with him.

"Let go!" She yelled panicky. "He will destroy the temple, come on!" He yelled and he pulled Mia with him. "Don't touch me!" She yelled and she hit him. "Come back!" He yelled, when he saw she ran up the stairs, to find Sokka and Katara. She met Sokka, Katara and Aang and just when Mia wanted to walk down the stiars again, it was completely vanished in the magma. "Oh boy..." She mumbled and she ran to the open gap in the wall, and the tower was already falling. Momo, Aoiand Appa came just in time and they jumped in the saddle.

When everyone was calmed down, Aang was walking around in the saddle. "Would you sit down? If we hit a bump you'll go flying off! What's bugging you anyway?" Sokka asked Aang. "I'm supposed to master all four elements before that comet arrives." Aang said a bit hopeless. "Well, let's see," Sokka started and he looked book and losend the reins a little bit,"you've pretty much mastered airbending and that only took 112 years. I'm sure you can master three more elements by next summer."

"I haven't even started waterbending and we're still weeks away from the North pole!" Aang yelled, "what am I gonna do?!" Mia garbbed his hand and pulled him down. She sat in front of him and grabbed his face. "Calm down, it is going to be okay!" Mia smiled, "The Avatar is known by learning everything fast, as long they have a good teacher. I am only a good fire bender, earth and water is less. I am a beginner in that, and I never get better. But you... You are the Avatar, you can master it, I am so sure. And we are all going to help you. Katara can help you right now with Waterbending, right?"

Katara nodded friendly.

They stopped at a waterfall, with a huge paddle and Katara started to practice with Aang while Sokka was removing things out of the gaps bewteen Appa's toes. Mia was looking at Aoi, that was currently sleeping. She held her hand by his mouth and when he breathe out, a hot warmth vame out of his mouth. Mia did not strust it and woke him up. She had a bit of a heartattack when she saw his eyes. They weren't blue, but blood red. The cat yawned and when he breathe out, smoke came out his mouth. "What are you...?" Mia asked. "Mia, are you coming?" Katara asked angrily, "we are going to the market."

Mia frowned and looked at her. "What is it?" Mia asked. "Aang, he.. he... he just did some moves that took me my whole life to learn." Katara replied confused. "I told you, Avatar's learn fast."

"Yeah, yeah..." Katara said and waved with her hand, "so are you coming?" Mia looked back at Aoi, who coughed and fire came out of his mouth. "No. I stay here." Mia replied quietly, "don't buy anything useful. I will go to the notary as soon as we are in Ba Sing Se. My dad wil have some money."
