"What!?" Katara, who was now 23, screamed. "Yes, Its a document from long ago, I'm sorry." Hakoda said, watching his daughter pace back and forth. Her dress skimming the ground, she wasn't even married yet she wore beautiful dresses. The Northen Watertribe had let them stay there, while they rebuilt. "Katara, Your ready to marry, and why not with Fire Lord Zuko?" Hakoda said. "I dont want to marry him! Father, I Don't Love him!" She yelled, she stopped pacing. "Katara, You know you love him, but maybe not that way. If you learn, you could Love him." Hakoda said, standing up and placing a hand on her shoulder. Her guided her to the door and a firenation ship was seen. "Dad, No. Please, Don't Make me." She sighed. "I'm sorry, I can't go against a document, especially from my Great Great Grandfather." He said, the ship pulled up into the harbor and Zuko walked off the ship. He looked the same as before, his hair was down, the same length as before. He was wearing an outfit that shoed some of his chest. He must've thought it wasn't going to be that cold in the water nation. "Ughh It's freezing." He said. "I told you Zuko, You should of packed something warmer." Iroh said, he had lost his stomuch and now had on a red coat. "Zuko." Hakoda cried out, Zuko turned their way and stopped. He was staring at Katara, her dress was strapless and went all the way down to the icey floor, it was the color of the waves and toward the end of her dress, white covered all the way around and faded into the blue, she had a white Dimond in the middle of the top of the dress, her hair was down and a small grown with a blue gem (the same color of her dress) was in the middle."H-Hello." He said shivering. "Hi Zuko." Katara said, faking a smile. "Hey." Zuko said walking up to Katara. She grabbed his arm and pulled him away from Iroh and Hakoda. "How Long have you known about this?" She asked, releasing his arm. "For a while." He said, almost smiling. "How Long is a while?" She asked. "Well...about 7 years." He sighed. "7 YEARS!" She shouted, Hokda and Iroh looked at the two, before turning back to their own conversation. "Why haven't you told me!?" She asked. "I didn't know it would be you!" He shouted. It was silent after that, thats when Katara spoke up. "We aren't going to make a great couple." She sighed, folding her arms across her chest. "We can work things out...I hope." Zuko said before taking Katara's hand and walking back to Iroh and Hakoda. Iroh noticed this and smiled. Katara pulled her hand out of Zuko's and walked next to him. "Katara, are your things packed?" Hakoda asked. "No, Why?" She asked, concerned. "Because your going to live with Zuko." Hakoda said smiling. "WHAT!" Katara screamed and almost every person stopped and stared at her. "Shh, calm down." Hakoda said. Katara said nothing but instead stomped off into her house. "I'll go help her." Zuko said before walking away.
"You could atleast try to make this work." He said, packing some of her clothes. "Oh Yeah, becuase I want to marry a Fire Bender." She said sarcasticly and flung her clothes over to Zuko. Zuko placed her things in the case and Katara grabbed the things she wanted. He placed eachone in carefully before he stopped and picked up a blue thong. "Nice." He said, smiling and holding behinde him. Katara stopped and snatch them away from him and blushed.
Katara and Zuko walked back out of the house, well Zuko was more like stumbling out of the house. She made him carry all her stuff. "Done." She said, walking over to the ship. "Why does she have so much stuff?" Zuko whined and walked off to the ship. He made it to the top of the ship and saw Katara standing there, waiting. "Um..Where's my room?" She asked. "This way." Zuko said putting the stuff down, a servent quickly came over and took her stuff and scuried off to her room. Zuko led the way, down the steps and into a giant room. Everything was blue. "I thought you might like if your room was blue on the ship, also if it was under the water." Zuko said, before walking over to a window. Katara watched in awe as the colored fish swam by. "Thanks Zuko." She said, before walking up to him and giving him a hug, the first sign of affection he had gotten all day. He wrapped his arms around her waist, and squeezed her. She pulled away from him, "Well I better go say bye to my dad." She said, and walked up the steps. Zuko was behinde her.
She walked down the steps of the ship, gracefully. Over to her dad she went, and gave him a hug. "I'll miss you." She said, before starting to cry. "Don't worry Katara, we'll see eachother again." He said, kissing the top of her head. "I love you." She said pulling away from him and over to Zuko. Hakoda smiled. "I love you too. Now good luck." He said, her and Zuko walked away. Hakoda turned towards Iroh. "Take care of her." He said, before shaking Irohs hand. "I will, for as long as I am still here." Iroh said, before walking away.
The stairs pulled up into the ship and the ship let out a whail. Katara ran to the side of the ship and watched as her father grew smaller and smaller. She turned around when he was no longer visible and there stood Zuko. "Don't worry, You'll see him again." He said smiling. "Yeah." She said, not smiling. She pushed past Zuko and went down the steps and into her room. "Give her time Nephew, she was just told today. I remember when you found out you were marrying her." Iroh said, placing and hand on his nephews shoulder and smiling, the flashback had always made Iroh chuckle. Zuko frowned and walked off into his corters. Leaving Iroh to look out into the ocean.
