Ty Lee wincked and turned away, she didn't want to do this. Ty Lee gave Naruto an apologetic look. "Sorry Whiskers" She said sadly. She wanted to help him, she really did. Suddenly, Ty Lee stood up and put her shoes back on.

"What are you...?!?!" Azula shouted as Ty Lee quickly hit her presure points and blocked her chi. Azula fell to the ground, limp as a rag doll.

"Come on!"

Naruto didn't need to be told twice, he fallowed Ty Lee as she did a series of gymnastic moves to get in a tree and jump down to the ground on the other side of the cortyard.

Naruto fallowed, part of him was impressed with Ty Lee's skill and manuvering throught trees, being from a higly forested area himself, he knew she was a pro.

"TY LEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Azula was screaming, mad as heck.

The two ran until they raeched the docks and swipped a boat and went to the shores of the Earth Kingdome, fearing Azula's rage was quite the motivational boost.

"THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Naruto cried, throwing himself at Ty Lee and hugging her around the waist and crying into her stomach.

"No need to thank me, that was the first time I've directly stood up to Azula, she's scary. I couldn't let her torture you...um...what's your real name?"

"Naruto."

"Well, nice to meet you Naruto. I'm Ty Lee. I take it those unusual clothes are your real ones?"

"Yep! I like being able to stand out, Life's too dull to be worth living if everyone's the same."

Ty Lee knew what he was talking about. Growing up in a high-ranking family with six sisters who looked exactly like her, Ty Lee felt as if she didn't have her own identity, and decided to join the circus in an attempt to escape being part of a "matched set".

"I know that feeling, you and me are the type that take pride in having their own identity just to prove to themselves their alive."

Naruto smiled at his savior, so...she knew that need to stand out and show the world your not what everyone thinks of you as, but rather be true to you yourself to know your even alive.
