Okay! Yay! Here is my new story! I am so excited. How is it? Remember to tell me!
OMG! Did anyone watch the season 3 finale trailer! It made me cry! Aang and Katara kiss in it, but then Katara looks like she didn't enjoy it and pulled away! Then they show her hugging Zuko! Yuck! The whole thing is Zutara! and the worst thing is, it is the official trailer! I have been so depressed ever since I watched it. I have to say, Aang is hot without a shirt and playing with fire. :) My brother says I am paranoid and that it is not Zutara, but I don't know. Watch it and tell me if I am crazy. You can see it on . Just click on the video on the home page. It is still a cool trailer.
A fire nation moved through the forest. Many guards were on watch for in their capture was one of their biggest prizes, the avatar, and his only weakness, the water bender who travelled with him. The four were placed in a small cart. It was made all of wood and was dusty. They avoided any contact with the four, because Azula knew too well how powerful these children were. They had been travelling to a harbor where the prisoners would be taken to the fire lord. It had been two days with no food or water and barely any food for the weary group. Aang, Toph, Sokka, and Katara were being held like full grown benders who were a threat, but they weren't, they were just children, and their strength and hope was fading.
The group layed in little clusters in the dusty cart.
Aang tried his best to close his eyes and get sleep. He leaned close to Sokka and Toph and even closer to Katara. They all cuddled together and tried to get sleep. Everyone had been successful but Aang, he just held tightly onto Katara. He had to much on his mind to sleep.
The cart lightly rocked underneath them. Then suddenly there was a
"THUMP!"
The cart hit a big rock. Aang heard a low grumble from all his friends as they woke up.
"That only seemed like 15 minutes of sleep!" Toph moaned.
"That was because it probably was." Sokka said sitting up.
They had been riding in that stuffy cart for about 2 days now.
The new conditions really took a number on the group.
Aang couldn't help but to think that they would be in this condition for a few more years. He knew he couldn't make it.
"Aang, did you get any sleep?" Katara asked, removing Aang from his thoughts.
"Oh, no I didn't, I have had to much on my mind."
"Like what?" Katara asked, curious now and ready to comfort Aang.
"It is nothing."
"It has to be something if you haven't had any sleep for 2 days."
"It is just because these aren't good sleeping conditions."
"What's wrong, you are hiding something."
Katara looked deep into Aang's eyes. They lost a lot of their feeling. They looked so blank.
Aang looked at Katara, his beloved Katara, her usual braid was still intact but just barely. Her hair was frizzy and pieces were coming out. Her tanned face had dirt marks on them. It seemed like the only thing that looked the same about her was those blue eyes.
Aang opened his mouth to speak until they felt the cart stop.
"Uumph!" Every one yelled as the car jerked forward and quickly back. They looked out the only small window in the cart. It was barred up on top.
"Food!" A muzzled voice yelled as he tossed three biscuits through the barred window.
The four just looked down at the food in front of them.
"What about water?" Aang called back.
"Oh yeah, water…" The man said. He threw water through the gate and watched it splash in a puddle on the floor.
He laughed.
"Happy now?" He continued laughing as he walked away.
Aang looked down hopelessly as the water seeped through the wood.
The cart started moving again.
Aang groaned.
"Now we have no water!"
"Aang" Katara said as she put a hand on his shoulder. "Waterbending."
"Oh yeah," Aang said looking down at his hands forgetting he could use them to do anything with that water.
Katara flowingly moved one of her hands and bended the water into the air.
"We should use it to escape." Aang said.
"No Aang, we need this water, there is only a little bit, it won't get us anywhere. We need to keep hidrated or we won't survive." Katara said as she moved the water about her hands. The water soothed her.
"That isn't enough water for all of us." Sokka said.
"I know, we will just have to split it up evenly."
Katara gave the portions out to every one and took a gulp of it herself.
"Now for the food." Katara said as she got up from her seat.
"Let's see. Umm.. Here you guys go."
Katara handed one bisquit out to everyone.
She handed the last one to Aang and sat down next to him.
"Katara, what about you?"
"I…I'm not hungry, you enjoy that."
"Katara, I don't believe you."
"Yeah sugar queen, I can feel you're vibrations yah know!" Toph said from the other end of the cart.
"I am fine guys." Katara replied. "Don't worry about me."
Katara's stumache let out a rumble which didn't help her argument.
"Here, we will split the rolls up." Aang said.
"Umm, Aang…" Sokka said
"You didn't"
"I did, I already ate mine."
"Me too, Twinkletoes." Toph said.
"That's okay Aang, thanks though." Katara said at Aang's failed attempt of kindness.
"Here, we can split mine" Aang said as he split his in half.
"Aang you don't have too..."
"Take it." Aang said as she handed Katara half of the roll.
Katara didn't argue, she knew she could not change Aang's mind.
The roles were stale and disgusting but that was all they had.
The cart kept on rumbling about.
Aang pulled Katara closer to him.
"You need sleep" Was all he said as he tried to get her in the most comfortable condition to sleep in the lousy cart they provided for them.
"So do you" Katara said facing Aang and putting her hand on his chest.
"I am fine."
"No you are not, you need sleep."
"No, I don't"
"Aang, You need rest. This is unhealthy."
"We are all cramped into a dusty cart with little sleep, food or water and there is no place to go to the bathroom! This whole place is unhealthy!"
"Well, look on the bright side, we have so little food or water we won't have to go the bathroom a lot, so we don't have to worry about that…"
"Katara, you kid yourself, look at us."
Katara looked around at all the dampened spirits in that cart.
She looked back at Aang.
"We both need sleep."
"Yah" Aang agreed.
"Come on, lets sleep."
Aang and Katara cuddled close together.
Aang wrapped his arms around Katara and laid still until he heard her breathing even out.
Aang picked his head up to see Toph and Sokka still awake.
"You aren't going to sleep, are you?" Sokka asked Aang.
"No, I just want her to have rest."
"Why won't you sleep?"
"I have a lot to think about."
"Like what?"
"Like how I got all of us in this situation!!" Aang yelled. He felt Katara shift under him. He spoke quietly not to wake her. "It is all my fault you guys are here, I should have just left you guys! This is just what I wanted to avoid! Katara shouldn't have come after me. I just wanted to leave you all behind."
"So you didn't want my sister to be with you." Sokka asked quietly, hurt Aang was so heartless towards Katara's feelings for him.
"No, I just, just, I don't want her to ever get hurt. It hurts me so much to see her like this, it isn't fair that she has to pay for my actions." A tear rolled down Aang's eye.
Sokka walked over to Aang.
"You really care for her, don't you?"
"Yah, I love her more than anyone would ever understand. I can't take this." Aang let more tears role down his eyes. He would probably be blushing right now at the fact that he is telling all his feelings to her brother, that was really awkward, but it was a different situation and all he could do was cry.
"At first I was mad you two were together, but now I see that you guys really love each other. I am glad it is you that is with her. Sorry if I gave you a hard time before."
"It's okay, it was a pretty awkward situation to walk in on me and her like that." Aang said reflecting back on that comical incident when he fell on top of Katara.
"Yah, what did happen then?"
Aang told Sokka the whole story.
"Man, I have the worst luck."
"I can imagine that happening now, I mean, that was really bad timing."
"So you forgive me?"
"Yah, Aang."
"I am glad we had this time to talkkk."
"THUMP!"
The cart hit another large rock.
Katara started to stir in Aang's arms.
"Oh, Katara is waking up, I will let you two be together." Sokka said laughing as he walked back to the other end of the cart.
Aang blushed.
Katara stirred a little more.
Aang petted Katara's knotted braid.
I am sorry, this is all my fault this happened to you. I will find a way out of this, I promise, Katara.
Sorry, that was shorter than I thought it was. I will post a new chapter soon to make up for it!
Write and Review!
Remember to watch the trailer and tell me if I am paranoid or not!
