AN: This story starts at the Western Air Temple and continues from there.

I don't own Avatar: the Last Airbender

Today is the day, the day I join the Avatar. Joining him is far from the best thing a loyal Fire Nation citizen could do. Uncle would do it though.

Uncle... I betrayed him. I regret it more than anything I've ever done. I hope he's okay, and I hope he'd be proud that his niece is learning from her mistakes. It took her a while though.

"Hello, Zuko here.

No that's lame," I mutter to myself.

"Play to your strengths Zuko... You're hot, but I don't think seducing the Avatar would help me, the Water Tribe girl would probably want to kill me. educe the Water Tribe boy? No that's stupid, that wouldn't help me with joining the group."

This is going to be harder than I thought. Should I mention Roku? He could be helpful, but I don't know if that would be enough to convince them. I'm hungry. I should find something to eat. I feel like I'm going to hurl, but that's probably just the morning sickness. Maybe the pregnancy card could help me; it's hard to say no to a knocked up single girl. I'm not willing to chance anything in the woods with the baby so I guess I should just go down there.

I see them flying closer. This is it. This is the moment. I'm worried but I have to try. I can't tell what's causing my urge to puke: my nerves or the morning sickness. Either way, I just want to get this over with as soon as possible.

"I think that will have to wait," says the blind girl. They all turn towards me.

"Hello, Zuko here. I heard you flying up there so I thought I'd wait for you down here," I say. That's definitely bile I taste. Power through Zuko.

"I just wanted you to know that I uh-have changed and that I'm good now. And I think I should join your group. Oh and I can teach firebending, to you," I motion towards the Avatar. I can feel it coming up. Please stop doing that baby. "See I-"

"You want to what now?" asks the blind girl.

"You can't think we could possibly trust you after all you've done," says the other girl.

"Yeah, all you've ever done is try to hunt us down," says the Water Tribe boy. I don't know how much longer I can hold it in.

"I've done some good things," I say, my vision blurring. "I could have taken your bison in Ba Sing Se but I set him free." Ba Sing Se brings up a lot of painful memories. The bison licks me.

"Appa does seem to like her," says the blind girl in surprise.
"She probably just covered herself in honey so Appa would lick her, I'm not buying it," says the Water Tribe boy.

"I can understand why you wouldn't trust me and I know I've made some mistakes in the past." This is more true than they know. I really need to be more careful in my choice of guys in the future.

"Like when you attacked our village," states the boy.

"Or when you stole my mother's necklace and used it to track us down," chimes in the Water Tribe girl.

"Look I admit I've done some terrible things but I'm trying to fix them. I shouldn't have attacked the Water Tribe and I should have never sent that assassin after you." I realize my mistake a moment later.

"Wait, you sent Combustion Man after us?" the older boy says.

"Well that's not his name but-" I say, a buzzing starting in my ear.

"Oh sorry, I didn't mean to insult your friend!"

I want to say something in protest but before I can everything fades to black.

Sokka p.o.v.

"What should we do?" Aang says, panicking. Katara cuts in.

"I don't know, Aang. We can't just leave her."

"Especially not when she's knocked up," says Toph.

"She's what?" I say in panic. This can't be good.

"Pregnant Sokka. There were two heartbeats so either she was pregnant or she had a koala-sloth on her back."

"Get her into a bed Aang, we'll discuss this more afterwards." orders Katara.

"What do you think we should do Katara?" I ask my sister. I don't think I can just ditch her in this condition, but I don't think Katara will see it that way.

"I don't know Sokka."

"I think we should ask her to explain herself when she wakes up," says Aang, walking back into the room.

"What's that on your shoulder Aang?" asks Katara.

"Vomit," he answers. "I'm going to take a shower."

"You can't keep avoiding this Aang. Zuko may not be the firebending teacher for you but there has to be someone," says Katara.

"I wouldn't rule her out so quickly Katara. She never once lied to us," says Toph. I speak up.

"No offense Toph, but after Azula I don't know if I trust your lie detection anymore."

"But claiming she saved Appa seems like an odd lie. She seemed quite tense at the mention of Ba Sing Se though."

"Regardless of the honesty of her words we should wait for her to wake up before we make any decisions," says Aang.

I don't see this ending well. A pregnant firebender in your midst can do that to you.

AN: Review please.
