"Take out your textbooks, kids!" Ms. Lung shrilled. The students groaned, especially Bumi. He hated working in the textbooks. Most of the stuff they learned about was pointless nonsense before the Hundred Year War. When were they going to get to the real stuff? The action! The fighting! The heroes! The villains! It was all boring information about old traditions that no one cared about. But he already had a C- in this class, so he took out his textbook reluctantly.

"Today, we are going to be learning about famous couples in history." The girls began to giggle and chatter. The boys groaned again. "We'll start off with the story of Oma and Shu." Ms. Lee began with some stupid boring story about two lovers who built a cave. Bor-ING.

"Long ago, there were two cities at war..." Bumi closed his eyes, disconnecting himself from the classroom. Slowly, the sound of his teacher's voice faded and he began to loose consciousness. Right before he was about to fall into a sweet, deep sleep, he heard his voice.

"Bumi! How about you tell us about a famous couple?"

His eyes shot open to find the entire class staring at him, some snickering.

He racked his brain frantically for a made up answer that sound like he at least tried. But then he realized that he actually knew one. In fact, his own parents were legendary.

"How about Avatar Aang and Master Katara?"

The class was silent. Even the teacher was at a loss for words. Bumi actually knew something.

"How did you know that, Bumi? That is a great answer!"

"Well, my parents named me after their kid Bumi..." He said shakily. Though it was surprising that he knew, no one questioned his lame excuse. Plently of kids were named after Bumi and his siblings. Growing up as the Avatar's son, everyone wanted to know everything about him. But his parents didn't want that for him. So they told him it would be best to keep his identity a secret. His parents had made sure that no one knew ANYTHING about their children besides that their names were Bumi, Kya, and Tenzin. And it was better for them. It was nice to live a normal life, free of publicity and fame, which was the opposite of what Bumi's parent's had.

"Omigosh, they have the cutest love story!" One of the girls squealed.

"I know. I want to tell it!" Another said.

"I know it best! They are my favorite couple." One girl smirked.

"Excuse me? Kataang is like, my One True Match!"

The girls started screaming.

Kataang? One true match? Bumi was very confused.

"Girls. Girls! Stop! Since Bumi was the one to bring up Master Katara and Avatar Aang, why doesn't he tell the story!" Ms. Lung clapped her hands together like that was the best idea ever. The girls glared at Bumi. Bumi gulped.

"Well, go ahead! Start at the beginning!"

Bumi could recite the story of his parents' love backwards and forwards. He had to listen to his father tell Kya about it countless times. But he had a reputation to uphold. So he pretended like his information was foggy.

"Well, I'm pretty sure Katara grew up with her brother, Councilman Sokka in the ... Southern? Southern Water Tribe?"

A girl scoffed. "Everyone knows that, idiot."

Bumi grew defensive. "Well, did you know that Master Katara was the only water bender in her tribe? When she was very young, a ship of Fire Benders attacked her home, looking for water benders. Her mother lied to protect Master Katara and said she was the last waterbender. They took her mother and killed her on the spot." He looked down at his feet, feeling a pang of sadness, suddenly wishing that he had a grandmother.

The room gasped. They stared at Bumi in horror.

"Go on." Ms. Lung said, engrossed in Bumi's story telling.

"Well, Councilman Sokka and Master Katara were out fishing when they found Aan- I mean, Avatar Aang and his Sky Bison, Appa, in an iceberg." Bumi caught himself, realizing that it was informal to call his father just by his first name.

"They broke him out, and discovered that he had been trapped in the iceberg for 100 years. He had no knowledge of the Hundred Year War that was going on, or that the Air Nomads had been terminated. Meanwhile, Fire Lord Zuko, who at that time was the banished Prince Zuko had been tracking the Avatar for years..." Bumi continued with the story of his parents, Team Avatar, and the end of the Hundred Year War. Soon, he forgot he was in class. He told the story in detail, not leaving out any moment of their adventure. The tale of young Avatar Aang flowed out of his mouth like a river without rocks, smooth and continuous. Finally, he reached the end of the story.

"After the war was over, Avatar Aang and Master Katara felt that they deserved to be together. It was the start of a new age in the world, and they had waited long enough." Bumi's eyes glistened. "They spent the rest of their lives together. Together, they battled battles, fought fights, and brought balance and peace to the world. They married"-Bumi silently counted the years-"15 years ago. They had three kids: Bumi, Kya, and Tenzin. Kya is a waterbender, and Tenzin is an airbender. The family now peacefully resides in Fire Lord Zuko's old home, here, on Ember Island."

Everyone stared at Bumi questioningly. "As far as I know." He quickly added. The class was silent until Ms. Lung erupted in applause.

"That was wonderful, Bumi! Everyone give him a round of applause!"
