A/N: This is kinda switching back and forth between one part in time and another. Depending on the feedback of this oneshot, I might make it into a story. Might. So review and tell me what you think and if I should make it a story.
He put more wood on the fire and threw more blankets on her. She was shivering violently and if he didn't do something she would die.
It was cold for spring, so cold that the water froze over. Everyone was huddled around the fire wrapped in blankets, even Zuko. They had never expected Azula to attack.
She wouldn't stop shivering. No matter how high he built the fire, no matter how many blankets he put on her, she wouldn't stop shivering.
They fought hard, but they were slow with cold and their opponents easily gained ground. First fell Sokka, taken down by a knife in his leg. Next Toph, her chi blocked and unable to see. Then Aang, hit hard by blue fire. They still fought back though. Katara drew water from the frozen river and lashed out at the girls while Zuko threw fireballs at them. But, when hit with a knife and pushed back by a ball of fire, Katara fell, unconscious, into the icy river.
He tucked the blankets around her tighter. Please be ok, please be ok…
He dived in after her with out hesitation. Grabbing her around the waist he resurfaced. His sister was gone, and so were Toph, Sokka, and Aang. Oh shit…
He pressed his hands to the mountain of blankets, sending heat through them. She still shivered.
He dragged her out of the water and to the small cave the gang had been staying in. He quickly stripped her of her wet outer clothes, tied a strip of cloth around her bleeding arm, laid her on a sleeping mat, and began piling blankets on her.
She wouldn't stop shivering. Nothing he did seemed to help. He felt her forehead. She felt like ice. Please don't die Katara, please.
He stripped down to his underclothes. I can't let her die.
Slipping beneath the sheets he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close. He warmed his body temperature and held her tight praying that it would work.
She slowly stopped shivering and opened her eyes weakly. "Zuko?"
"I'm here."
Katara closed her eyes and snuggled against Zuko's warm chest. Her even breathing told him she was asleep. He lightly kissed the top of her head and pulled her close.
You're ok. Thank gods you're ok…
A/N: Review and tell me what you think. Should I make it into a story?
