Avatar the Last Airbender: Kataang Story

Prologue

Aang and Katara had been dating for 3 years now and it was still going strong. Katara was 17 and Aang was 15. Things were much more peaceful since having defeated Ozia. Toph had expanded her Metalbending Academy. They were expanding through the earth bending areas. It was great for Toph because she felt important even after helping the Avatar, Aang, end the Hundred Year War. Sokka was as well doing great, he decided to go back to the South Pole to help it rebuild. Suki decided to go with him after she finished some time as being one of Zuko's guards. Also Sokka and Suki are now engaged. Zuko on the other hand was trying his best to fix his relationship with Mai, though he was doing a decent job as Fire Lord. At times he would look to his friends on what he should do, but for the most part he was dependent on himself on what to do.

Chapter 1 – The Understanding

Aang was peacefully lying on the coach with Katara lying against him also in a peaceful mood. Aang was gently, but lovingly stroking her hair. Because of its beauty and softness, Aang took every chance he had to touch it.

Katara looked up to see that he was looking at her with all his heart and love shown in his grey, but beautiful eyes. She loved when he looked at her that way. It made her feel like she was the only girl on the planet; never doubting that his love for was not pure for her.

Katara got up to move closer towards Aang. Aang happily made a spot on his lap for her to sit. Once she was sitting on him then took the moment to just look into each other's eyes. They both wanted to remember this moment forever. After a few minutes of being mesmerized by each other, Aang said, "I love you Katara, with all my heart and soul. I will be yours for eternity… I will love you even if at some point in life you do not feel the same, but I strongly feel that we are met for each other and only for each other."

A tear started to slip down Katara's cheek, she always got very weak, but in a great when Aang told her how he felt. He put his hand to her cheek and wiped away the tear. At that Katara got a chill up her spine from the warmth and softness of Aang's hand. Aang noticed and Katara replied, "It's a good chill… I get them a lot when you do that." She was blushing from this and she tried to look away, but Aang slowly got her to look at him again. He was as well blushing from this and he leaned in kissing her on the lips. Katara took no time to kiss him back.

They loved the alone time they always had now. Before it was always hard for them to act like a couple because Sokka was always complaining that it gave him the ooogies. Katara always got mad and yelled at Sokka for doing that. He'd always reply back by saying that seeing as she was his sister that it wasn't right to do that in front of him. Then she'd lash out with him by saying that he does the exact same thing when she's around. Aang would always try and mellow the mood out by calmly talking about how everyone needed to relax and that both of the couples should just make sure that they each had time alone with their loved ones so that fights wouldn't have to start anymore about this. Both Sokka and Katara wouldn't really understand what Aang would say until a minute or two later when it would finally sink in and they would calm down. Even Sokka and Katara never really admitted it, they were always so thankful that Aang was able to fix so much and bring peace to everyone.

Even though Katara and Aang wanted to spend as much time together as they could; they still felt that they needed to help others and make sure that balance and peace would stay. They would travel around a lot and help the poor have better lives. Things were looking up for the couple because they loved each other and they loved helping others. They couldn't believe how things had changed.

There were some small problems still. The decision to create a place where all different types of people and benders could live together took some getting used to for some. Though a lot of people liked the idea and supported it. Only a few times after the final decision was made had Zuko and Aang both had to go there to settle some of the people down about the decision.

At the moment though, Aang and Katara were about to leave on a mini vacation. They were relaxing on the coach still for a few minutes longer before they decided to leave their place to go who knows where. They wanted to make it like in the olden days when they would fly on Appa. Then when they would see a nice place to relax and be at in the wilderness they would land.

When they finally left their place and set out on Appa they sat together while Aang had his arm around Katara. They had been traveling for at least three hours and they had spotted the perfect spot. It was a forested mountain area, but the best part about the area was that the mountain area consisted of a huge waterfall that went into a lake that connected to a river.

Katara looked down at the area marveling at its beauty. Aang looked at Katara at this moment in her pure joy of seeing this beautiful area. He felt like he had fallen in love all over again. Once Aang got out of being mesmerized by Katara he had Appa land in the area.

Once Aang got off of Appa he came around to the side Katara was on and helped her down. She blushed because of this and Aang wrapped his arms around her and kissed her for the second time that day. After a few moments of them kissing Katara spoke, "Aang, my sweet sweet lovely Aang… I love you with all my heart. I just wish I could show it to you more often…""Katara…?... You don't have to try and show me it at all." "What do you mean Aang? That I don't have to try?" "I'm saying that every time I look at you and I'm with you, I feel how strong your love is and you don't have to do anything because I love you for just acting like yourself, you don't have to do anything extra to prove your love." "Aang…, then why do you do extra little things for me?" "Well the reason is simple… it's the kind of guy I am and because I know that if I didn't do those extra stuff for you that you would still love me. It may not make perfect sense on what I'm saying, but I guess I can't always make sense to everyone else for my reasons on things."

Katara slowly walked up to Aang and gave him a tender kiss on the cheek and then looked into his eyes and said I understand and I love you too in every way I can."
