Personally I really don't like the Agni Ki scene as a fight. i thought it could have gone so much better. That was until I really anilized it. To look at this scene as Katara, or Zuko, or Azula my mind was racing. This is a three shot of my perspective of the thoughts of them.

Katara's POV:

"Just you and me brother. The showdown that was always meant to be. Agni Ki!" Azula said. What's an Agni Ki? Has Zuko mentioned it? This can't end well!

"Your on!" Zuko called back. What? No!

"She's trying to separate us." I started to say but was cut off.

"I know. And this time I can take her." He said. His voice more determined than ever.

"You just told your uncle that you'd need help" I pleaded.

"I can't explain it but she's slipping, and this way no one else had to get hurt." He said. What does he mean hurt? Why am I so afraid to ask what's going on? Agni Ki. Agni Ki. Why does this sound familiar?!?

Next thing I knew I was standing on the sidelines of an arena. Why had I agreed to this. If Azula won Zuko would be dead and probably I would be too but if Zuko won I don't even know what would happen. Or if its possible. Agni Ki. The name rang through me head. Then it hit me. I think. I don't know if I was assuming or knew but I think it has something to do with Zuko's scar. This is bad. This is really bad.

"I'm sorry it has to end this way brother." Azula said. Her voice was off.

"No your not." came the sarcastic, angst, and determined voice of Zuko. He was right of course.

The power of the comet made Azula's first flame amazing. I was almost sure that it was over until I saw Zuko's flame slice right through. Every attack went like this. They were evenly matched for the most part. Though when they stopped for a moment you could see how wobbly and out of breath Azula was. Zuko stood tall and proud as ever.

"What? No lightning today?" Zuko asked in a jokingly manner probably to get back at her for the childhood he missed. I just hope he doesn't get cocky. He can brag later.

"Oh I'll show you lightning" she sneered as lightning began to spark her fingertips. But as Zuko got in to stance Azula's eyes shifted the room. They landed on me. As I saw the lightning come my way I tried to move. Tried to bend an ice wall or something not that if would help. But I stuck to the ground. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain.

After a second there was nothing. I opened my eyes to see Zuko in the air, and good portion of lightning was redirected at the sky but not all of it. Then he fell. His body lifeless, electrified. No. no. NO. "ZUKO" I screamed without even knowing I did. He couldn't die. I could repeat this. The way I lost Jet. The way I almost lost Aang. The way I lost my mother.

I tried to run to him. I was already gathering water in my hands to heal him but Azula struck first. I had to fight her. I ran and made ice around me. I wasn't really sure it I was attacking, blocking, or saving Zuko with that move. I hid behind a pillar.

Azula didn't hear the running water over her laughter. Zuko was right. She IS off. I lured her over the grate. Easily enough since all she cared about was killing me. A had a chain in my hands and just as she stepped over I froze the water upward. Azula's fingers in a lightning formation were but an inch from my nose. But as she was frozen I saw something civil in her.

She was scared. You could see in her eyes she was waiting for death, just as I had been when Zuko took it for me. I melted a bit of the water around me and quickly worked to tie her down. As I released the water we both gasped the fresh air. I quickly tightened the chains.

I was about to catch my breath when I remembers Zuko. I ran to him as quickly as I could. He was alive-ish. I fought to hold in tears as I worked with the healing water, begging for progress I just wasn't sure would come. Aang his been hit in the back and spirit water barely saved him. Zuko's wound was close to the heart. Really close. Chances of him living were slim and I was just about to give up when I heard his voice.

"Thank you Katara" his voice was low and rasp but he was alive. And he was thanking me. For what. No I didn't deserve that.

"I think I should be thanking you" I said. Tears were still pressed in my eyes as I spoke. He smiled softly. I don't think I had ever seen him smile before.

I helped him up and over to Azula. She was crying and breathing blue fire uncontrollably. I felt a pang sorry for her remembering those eyes. They were different than Zuko's. Zuko's eyes were filled with pain and determination. That's one thing I've always admired about him. He never stops fighting. Neither did Aang. I wonder how he is right now. Probably in better shape than Zuko. I hope anyways. But it's over. Now all we have to do is wait. And waiting is allot harder than it should be.
