"Shes awake!! Everyone outside now!"
"Where am I?" Kaya asked grabbing her head to soothe the terrible pain.
"You are in a healing pool. I am healer Uei, your water bending teacher." She responded.
"No, I know who you are but where was I? Who was in the tree? Where was I for three days?!"
Kaya began to pace around the room. She had so many questions that she had no idea who to ask.
"Please kaya. Sit, I must tell you what the others may never know." Uei pat the floor next to her.
"Kaya, no one knows you blood bended the Fire Lord. Only I do. They believe that it was a freak accident and are blaming Prince Zuko for it. Even though they have no idea what or who did it. I need you to keep this a secret or you will be thrown in prison."
"But, what about Zuko? What will he do?" Kaya responded.
"I am not sure. They do not tell me much but when Zuko came to visit you earlier he seemed very distressed and upset. I have overheard of some sort of banishment but I am not sure when."
"NO! I have to set things right! Please, Zuko does not deserve this."
"I know you love him child but first I need you to tell me that you saw when you were in the spirit world."
"I was in the spirit world? What even is that?"
Kaya responded confused.
"Never mind that Kaya, there is no time for history class I just need you to tell me exactly what you saw."
"Okay..."
As kaya began recalling her time inside the spirit world she could feel her headache returning. This time stronger than before. Its as if whatever was inside her, did not want her to say what she saw.
"Agh!" Kaya screamed in pain and fell to the floor clutching her head. She felt as if someone was cutting it right off.
"Calm down kaya. Everything is ok. Now, you were telling me about a tree." Healer Uei bends down to pick Kaya back up.
"Im sorry but I think whatever happened there needs to remain between me and whatever the spirit world is. Im afraid the head pains get worse the further I go into the story. Its as if part of me wants me to stop talking about it."
