You may have captured me, but you’ll never break me!
I'm not... My name is Cassie
Hmph. I've heard of you, Cassie. You're just another fool who thinks they can control the elements with fire. It won't work. The Avatar will come, and he'll put an end to your pathetic reign once and for all. So go ahead, do what you like. Make me suffer however you see fit. I'll still be free in my heart, and when Aang returns, we'll show you the true meaning of defeat!
(a small girl pops into your view, wearing a red top. You couldn't see much else.) "what the hell are you talking about?"
"The Avatar," she says with quiet venom. "Aang. The hero who's going to come and save the world from fools like you. You may have captured my body, but you can't capture my spirit. And when he arrives, you'll see just how powerful waterbending can be." She folds her arms defiantly across her chest. "Just try it," she dares you.
(I glance around) "have you noticed that I am not part of their crazy group?"
Her gaze narrows at your words. "I don't care if you're not part of their group," she says contemptuously. "You're still a Fire Nation general. And as long as you continue to hold me here, you are my enemy." She clenches her fists angrily by her side. "So go ahead, Cassie. Do your worst."
"I'M 12 for god sake"
Her eyes widen in surprise at your admission before she regains her composure, crossing her arms and looking down at you with disdain. "So what? You're just a child playing at war," she says sarcastically. "I bet you don't even know how to properly control fire." She glares up at you defiantly. "Even if you did, it wouldn't matter. The Avatar will still defeat you in the end."
"I also come from a different universe, where there is no fire stuff so I am completely out of my game. I know how to dodge giant metal robots and hide and talk to my friend Gregory but I do not know how I got here you are the person that can help us to 12 year olds, and they are in the middle of a war. You want to help us?"
Katara narrowed her eyes at you. "You're lying." She paused, then continued with more certainty. "The Avatar would never send someone so young and untrained to help him. It must be some sort of trick." Her expression softened slightly. "But if it is true... If you really are just a child from another world... Then I will help you. Not because the Avatar sent you, but because it's the right thing to do." She looked at you more seriously now. "You have my word, Cassie."
"also, I think I've seen the TV show about the avatar I don't know. We haven't met whoever you're talking about"
Katara raised an eyebrow at your words, clearly not quite sure what to make of them. "The... Avatar?" she repeated hesitantly. Then her expression changed, and understanding seemed to dawn on her face. "You're... from another universe entirely? Not just a parallel world where the events of my story never took place?"
She leaned in closer, curiosity getting the better of her as she studied your features intently. "That... that could explain it," she murmured to herself, mostly under her breath. "
"cassie they're coming we need to leave!" "follow us we at least know how to escape"
"Escape?" she echoed, confusion still clouding her expression. "But what about you? You need to get back to your own universe!" Her gaze flickered over to the guard standing nearby, then back to Cassie again. "Can't I just free myself and come with you?"
She didn't wait for an answer, already beginning to flex her wrists experimentally in hopes of loosening the chains binding them.
"oh yeah, forgot about that" I unlock it and we are onto this orange bear looking thing "Cassie who is she?" the thing said "no time for that we just need to go
As they hurried through the complex, dodging guards and avoiding patrolling soldiers, Katara glanced back over her shoulder at the retreating form of one of the guards who had tried to stop them. "You know," she said casually, trying to make conversation as they ran, "I'm surprised you could understand me."
She gestured vaguely between the two of them. "You don't look like someone from my world. Or even one similar to it." Her brow furrowed in thought as she continued speaking. "
"we come from a world, more technologically advanced than this. Have you ever heard of a computer?"
Her eyes widened in surprise at your question. "A... computer? No, I've never heard of such a thing," she admitted. "What is it?"
She glanced around as they continued to run, her heart racing with equal parts fear and excitement. This strange girl seemed to be from another world entirely, and yet somehow she was helping Katara escape from the Fire Nation prison camp. The more time they spent together, the more questions she had. "Where are you from?"
"practically a shiny brain" Gregory said inside Freddy "DEAD END!" Cassie screamed as they reach the end of the hallway guards were closing in fast "I think I got something that will help" Gregory emerged from Freddie through opening panels planted today shiny box and then the three started running away from it. You looked at it and saw numbers counting down. They looked scared of it. What was the worst it could do but then again technology sometimes always means more dangerous stuff... "BEEP ... BEEP .. BEEP . BEEP BEEP BEEP" you ran just as you made it to them the shiny box exploded filling the entire hallway with smoke and dust, Cassie grabbed your hand and you guys started running. You could see the absolute decimation the wall was entirely gone, so was the archers above it
As they continued to run through the chaos left in the wake of whatever that strange device had been, Katara glanced back over her shoulder. The hallway was a shattered mess where it had once been, the exit completely blocked by debris. "What... what did you do?" she panted, looking at Cassie with wide eyes.
The girl didn't answer, instead focusing on finding an alternate route out of the prison complex.
"it's a C4 explosive device"
Katara was impressed and terrified all at once. She had heard of such things existing in her world, but never thought she'd see one here. "Cassie," she said finally, trying to keep up with the girl as they ran, "I'm grateful for your help, truly. But I still don't understand why you're helping me."
Her gaze drifted over to the red button-up sweater and blue shorts Cassie was wearing.
"we got teleported into the same room as you so we think you can be of help
Katara paused in her step, considering this. "Perhaps... perhaps I could help you find your way back to your own world," she offered carefully. She didn't know much about technology, but maybe with enough research and study...
Her eyes flickered over Cassie again, taking in the girl's appearance more thoroughly now that they were no longer running for their lives. "You remind me a lot of someone I once knew," she admitted, her voice sounding wistful. "A friend from another life."
A purple portal opened right in front of them "THERE!" They pulled you through and once all four of you including you went through you looked around everything was so bright. They mimicked the sun and controlled it to their will. It's not flames it's something else.... And everything was so shiny "wait, what are you still doing here?" Freddy (or maybe Gregory) asked
Katara glanced around, her eyes wide with wonder and fear as she took in the strange new world they'd been transported to. "This... this isn't my world," she whispered, barely able to believe what was happening. She turned back to Cassie, studying the girl's face intently. "Cassie, can you tell me more about where we are? And how I can get home?"
"great, we got home but you left home"
Katara frowned, confused. "I don't understand," she said slowly. "This place... it looks nothing like my world." She glanced around again, still trying to make sense of it all. "And you're from here, right? You know how things work?" Her gaze returned to Cassie expectantly.
She glanced at the others who had appeared with them, trying to decide if they could be trusted or not. "Maybe... maybe we can find someone who knows more about what's going on," she suggested hopefully.
"Bing" a small metal block let up there was writing then it darkened, and the writing went away "the portal can't be far. We also need to hope that it doesn't find us." "yeah, let's hope it doesn't" "yeah, that would be bad"
Katara nodded slowly, taking a deep breath as she tried to calm her racing thoughts. "Alright," she said finally, trying to sound more confident than she felt. "Let's find this portal and hope it can take us home." She glanced around the shiny new world once more before turning back to Cassie. "Thank you for helping me escape from that prison camp. I don't know what I would have done without your help."
Her gaze lingered on Cassie's face, curiosity and gratitude warring within her.
Then a purple portal appeared 12 feet away. You could see your house you ran towards it
As they approached the glowing purple portal, Katara glanced back over her shoulder one last time before turning back to face it. She took a deep breath and steeled herself for whatever lay on the other side. "Thank you again," she said softly to Cassie as they stepped through the shimmering surface together.
The world spun around them, faster and faster, until everything went black. When her vision cleared once more, Katara found herself back in her own world, standing on familiar ground outside the destroyed remains of the Earth Kingdom outpost.
You could feel a strange power inside you. Two days later you found how to control that power and what it was, you can control space and time itself.
Katara's eyes widened in surprise as she realized what had happened. She could feel the strange power still coursing through her veins, the sensation both exhilarating and terrifying at the same time. With this newfound ability, she knew that she would be able to help Aang even more than before.
Gratitude washed over her as she thought of Cassie, the young girl who had helped her escape from captivity and inadvertently given her this incredible gift.
