Iroh sipped on a cup tea. "Zuko, she is telling the truth."
"How can you believe that?! She is psychotic if she believes she from another world!”
Iroh shrugged "Maybe, but that is her business. There is a reason for everything, but also don’t forget the spirits." Iroh poured himself another cup of tea. "They are mysterious and the universe works in ways we never imagine… I suggest we keep her here a little bit longer, just a week, to see how things work out.”

“No, I want her gone!”
Iroh stood up, “We already left the air temple and we don’t need to restock for another week. We can’t toss the poor girl over open water.”
The idea to Zuko was very tempting, but at the same time he was slightly curious about the girl. If the spirits did send her here from a different world, or universe. “Fine, but she doesn’t get in my way, or I will throw her overboard.”

A day passed since I had tried to convince Zuko and his uncle that I wasn’t from around here. I stayed in sick bay, which wasn’t all that bad, Iroh sat and talked to me about where I was from as I explained what my homeland was like. Iroh seemed quite amazed when I explained a little history to him and told him how much I wished had a map to show the states.
When I finished my question Iroh a few things ...

... kid.”
I was left alone in sick bay to be alone with my thoughts. I pulled back the zipper and rummaged threw my bag. I was able to find everything that was in there even my MP3. I smiled to see I had a little bit over 70 percent. I turned it off before stuffing it back into my back. I decided that I should have a little look around the ship. I slipped out of bed and placed my shoes on and walked out going down the halls brushing my hair into a loose ponytail. I roamed the halls not sure where I was going. Though I was hoping to find my way to the deck to get some fresh air. I hated being cooped up, as much as I hated being on dry land.
The pain in my side was a dull pounding warm sensation as I walked. I didn’t think too much of it when I reached the outside deck at the end of a long hallway. I stepped slowly out onto the deck to feel the warm sun on my face.
“On her knees, she sucked in the air and listened to the groans beneath her. She watched the whirlpool of faces, left and right, and she announced, ‘I’m not stupid.’” (79).
" What do you mean she will be fine?! Did you not see her " I hear Akira yell.
“I don’t know, I’m not sure how this works either.” Her reply did not satisfy him, but he couldn’t think of how to go about telling a ghost (if that’s what she is) that they are
As the reader is introduced to the woman we find her talking about very strange and unusual happenings occurring around her. She evens states that she has a condition that signifies insanity, but the doctor would never tell her straight to her face that she was insane. She says, “I think it is due to this nervous condition”(453). This shows that she knows there is something wrong with her. This nervous condition she refers to can only mean that she is having mental problems and is possibly going insane. We can infer this because during this time period, the doctors did not state that someone was insane because they had no medical proof. Instead they would just tell the patients that they have a nervous condition, and send them away. She says, “I always fancy I see people walking in the numerous paths and arbors, but...
are headed toward those we love? (Then, she returns to her calm tone when directing the question to Ismene, faces her)
“Why did you bring me here then?!” She asks frantically looking around to make sure there wasn’t a ghost around. Which is kind of funny, because they're not real.
“Have you spotted any new spirits around here recently?” Pluto asked, trying to read the spirit’s almost nonexistent face. The spirit fluttered and shook his head furiously.
No one believes me because her name is not in the books but I swear she was here. They tripled my dosage of the meds and say Im hallucinating. Im currently diagnosed with schizophrenia, multiple personality disorder,Histrionic personality disorder,Cyclothymia, and insanity in general. Insanity, Insanity, it plagues all humanity, a bump on the head and we’ll all go crazy, a bump on the head and maybe just maybe you'll begin to understand me. I AM NOT CRAZY. No one believes me. No one believes us. She was here though. Emily was
Luna: “What? Why? Why did you find the need to lie to me all these years?”
"You really need Cassandra back. I don't think being away from her for so long is good for you," Resha commented softly.
"Hm," the Doctor grunted. He wasn't too keen on having this girl who wasn't much more than a stranger starting to pilot his precious TARDIS. So far she hadn't been able to produce any real proof that she was telling the truth. Of course, this flight was meant to be her proof.
Over the next few days, I left food, fresh water. I sat and watched. I sang lullabies under the sun and wept at the moon. I fought beside him against the seagulls, screaming and throwing rocks when they got near his dead friend until the day he left her and came to me. We buried her under speckled rocks and handfuls of sand. When he’d adjusted to Moby and would sleep next to me on the pullout bed, I was ready. We went in search of my X island where we could run in the sweet grass and eat wild fruit and live off the land. It might be the end but at least I’d have company.
“Ooooooo! Maybe it is the ghost of the lady who died here before we moved in. mwaha-ha, ha!”Danny says.
“Oh really, who do you think she’s going to believe, you or me?” After I convince her that you’re a trouble child, she will have no choice but to send you away!”
"I'll start my search there. We won't lose hope that she may still be alive, but don't lose your sense of reality either." His voice had a coldness to it and his face looked like someone whose life was taken out of him.
