Lost

Fire burning

I continue running through the dense forest thankful I had thought to pack light. Once my brother was threatened I didn't have a choice I stood up for him but soon after I find myself in a strange world fleeing for my life..again. I figured I had crossed into another physical world and so had the solider. I stop when I see a fire consuming a building nearby. I put my hood up and I go over to the scene. People are panicking and running around like pig chickens with their heads cut off. I sigh and I clench my fist and the fire slowly loses steam and then I continue to walk now searching for anyone that needs help. A voice calls after me but I ignore it. I can't trust anyone. Anyone could be a spy for the fire lord. Lassie! Get that girl! Spencer! Please! Hey! Police stop! It's a kid - I turn and he says uh...Spencer....he pushes him in front of himself and I raise an eyebrow and say nothing. I cross my arms. Ok you've got my attention do you need something? He just smirks and says I saw what you did there. My face shows nothing as I say Im not sure I know what you're talking about. Now of you don't need me for anything else I'll be going now. Going where? It's a Tuesday morning shouldn't you be in school? I turn and I smirk I have a private tutor. But...I watch them bicker and I keep walking and suddenly one of the fire guard slams me hard against the wall. Get close to that man the fire lord wants him to work for him. Excuse me? He claims he's...physic. And you're asking me to confirm it? No. If he's a fake he'll be killed and you'll be taken to boiling rock. He says. That's where he'll keep the prince when he captures him. My hand rolls into a fist. Unless of course he is a physic and then it is possible you could get away to help your brother. Your choice. He keeps walking and soon he vanishes from sight. I begin to pace he's messing with my head. I put my ya d on the wall and I remember.

Farther where's mother? She's gone now get out of my sight. Farther please! Come on Kani let's go feed the turtle ducks. Zuko! Kani what's - Azula how could you! It's fun! What are you going to do? Cry to mommy? Zuko turns to his littlest sister as she goes over to one of the still moving turtle ducks. She closes her hands around it. The duck begins to glow and she gently brings it over to the fire. She stands up. Stop it Azula! You're a freak! Farther will hear about this!

Hey kid? You ok? I look up and I find I'm on a futon of some sort and I jump up when I see the two males from earlier. I look around and the one wearing a plaid shirt says it's ok kid. I back away from him and I look out the window. I can't be here I say. I've got to leave. Wait- I turn and the man has darker skin darker then I've ever seen he says uh you shouldn't be alone. I'm fine. I've got to go now I say. I open the door and a man grabs me and goes to put me back inside and I move my arm out of his grip and he's knocked back I back away from him and he pulls something from his belt. Lassiter! Don't - she's resisting! He says still pointing the weapon. She's a kid the woman says. He points the weapon at me and I just stare at him my hand itching for my own weapon. Put it away she says to him. Look, kid, we just want to talk. Talk? We should have her in an interrogation room he snaps. I don't trust you he says. I stare back at him meeting his emotionless face. I don't trust you either I say. The woman clears her throat and he grunts and puts his weapon away. Neither of us relaxes.  Come on..the other man says let's relax we're just going to talk he says. Fine. I say. I look around and I see a few of my farther's spies lurking. But not here. We can't be in the open. What? Lassiter says why? I look over and I see my farther's spies and they're coming over here. Oh of the love of Agni- GET DOWN! I say and a stream of fire comes over their backs and I deflect it. I stand in front of them as they get up shocked and one of the spies says you're coming with us. Leave this place I say they've got enough to deal with. We have our orders he says. He goes into a fighting stance. I step over him and I quickly block his chi before he can react. I turn to the other spy get him out of here and don't come looking for me. I turn from the small group still looking at me in shock. They follow me and once we get into the forest one of them says I'm Shawn...he says. I glance at him and he says where are we going? When I first got here I met a guy and his house is far enough and hidden so it might not be found. By those guys? I nod once. Who are they? He says. I...can't I can't talk about it here now besides they could be following us. I say. Hey! Hey! You owe us an explanation! Lassiter! The woman says. Please, he says tell us what the heck- I glare at him and he says where are you talking us. I keep walking and Shawn says this is the place? Yes, why? It's my dad's place. I go over to the door and I knock. The door opens and Henry smiles. Kani good to see you again...uh..what happened he says. May I come in? Of course, he says moving to the side to let us in. I go inside and start pacing your name is
