Zuko had the wonderful idea of hiding out in his families Ember Island beach house.

"Doesn't it seem kind of weird that we're hiding from the Fire Lord in his own house?" Katara asked us.

"I told you, my father hasn't come here since our family was actually happy. And that was a long time ago. It's the last place anyone would think to look for us." Zuko answered.

"That was really depressing, but he is not wrong," I laughed.

Sokka burst in, with Suki, holding up a piece of paper, "You guys are not gonna believe this! There's a play about us." He exclaimed.

"We were just in town and we found this poster!" Suki cut in.

"What? How is that possible?" Katara asked them.

Sokka was bubbling with excitement, "Listen to this ..."The Boy in the Iceberg is a new production from acclaimed playwright Pu-on Tim, who scoured the globe gathering information on the Avatar, from the icy South Pole to the heart of Ba Sing Se. His sources include singing nomads, pirates, prisoners of war, and a surprisingly knowledgeable merchant of cabbage.""

"Brought to you by the Ember Island Players," Suki finished.

"Oh! Zuko told me ab-"

"Ugh! My mother used to take us to see them. They butchered Love Amongst the Dragons every year!" Zuko cut me off.

"Sokka, do you really think it's a good idea to attend a play about ourselves?" Katara asked him.

"Come on, a day at the theater? This is the kind of wacky time-wasting nonsense I've been missing!" Sokka argued.

"We are definitely not going to the theatre, Sokka." I said.

Yeah so, we ended up going to the theatre.

Zuko and I sat next to Katara, with Zuko on the side closer to Katara, much to Aang's dismay.

"Hey, uh... I wanted to sit there." Aang said awkwardly.

"Just sit over there," Zuko gestured to the seat next to me, "What's the big deal?"

"I was just, I wanted to ... okay." Aang plopped down next to me.

I couldn't help but laugh. I turned to Zuko and spoke so only he could hear me, "you're so dumb, clearly he likes Katara."

"I'm dumb? You couldn't even figure out that I liked you."

"Touché..."

"Shhhhhhh! It's starting!" Sokka said to us.

I looked at the screen to see an actor version of Sokka and Katara on screen.

The Katara actress sighed dramatically, "Sokka, my only brother! We constantly roam these icy South Pole seas, and yet never do we find anything fulfilling!"

"All I want is a full feeling in my stomach! I'm starving!" Actor Sokka said, cuing laughs from the audience. I couldn't help but chuckle, the joke was so bad... it was good.

"Is food the only thing on your mind?" Actress Katara asked.

"Well, I'm trying to it get out of my mind and into my mouth! I'm starving!" Actor Sokka answered.

I, along with the rest of the audience, laughed.

Sokka leaned forward in his seat, clearly annoyed, "This is pathetic! My jokes are way funnier than this!"
