Now she has plans for the entire Earth Kingdom. She orders that Katara be taken to a secret place. She is betting that the Avatar will be stupid enough to focus on saving his friend instead of saving the city.   The gang meets with the Earth King. Despite Aang's concern, the Earth King claims everything is going fine, and Katara is fine. It's not long before Azula captures the King, Sokka, and Toph.   Zuko, also Azula's prisoner, and Katara are placed in a crystal prison chamber with no apparent way to get in or out. They two begin opening up to each other -- just a little. Katara discovers that Zuko is more honorable than she thought.

The battle is fierce and evenly matched. Zuko announces, "It's over, Avatar... capturing you has always been my destiny." Aang responds, "You've got your destiny... and I've got mine." His eyes and tattoos begin glowing. But just as his powerful form rises heroically, Azula zaps him with a particularly forceful bolt of lightning. Aang falls, mortally wounded. Katara rushes to his side. She is able to get him to safety thanks to last minute cover from Uncle Iroh.   Azula relishes their victory, and assures Zuko that he did the right thing.
