Zuko and Katara

Sweat dripped down Kazami's face as she turned around and kicked fire at her opponent. She growled as a smirk crossed his face while he blocked the blast like it was merely a spider-fly. She threw three more to distract him. She fell onto her back and used a move her father had taught her. She propped herself on her hands and twirled around, a steady wave of fire radiating off of her. Her opponent was still distracted, and screeched as the fire hit his ankles. He staggered backwards, falling onto his back. Kazami ran at him, jumped, and landed, standing over him with streams of fire radiating from her palms on either side of the boy. She smiled a sly, dirty smile. "Don't mess with the Fire Lord's daughter," she told him with soft, threatening sarcasm.

Clapping came from across the training arena as her dad stepped out from the shadows. "Good job Kazi!" She bowed her thanks and hugged her father. Fire Lord Zuko's pride was radiating as his sister's son stood up. "You did well too Lamar, but I think your mom better start training you instead of your usual teacher. If Azula's son is having trouble beating my daughter, you have the wrong teacher," he told his nephew. "Your mother is one of the best firebenders in the world; I know her son is capable of much more." Lamar bowed, "Thank you Uncle, I will relay your advice to her." He smiled and dismissed Lamar, turning back to his daughter, "Go wash up, you wouldn't want to miss that party tonight would you?" She smiled brightly and shook her head, her golden eyes glowing.

"Kazami!" her mom shouted as she approached the training arena, "Hurry up, the party starts in two hours!" She bowed, the proper Fire Nation bow, to her father before running to hug her mother. Katara smiled, "You're welcome."

"Thank you mom! I never thought you'd let me go!" she exclaimed, jumping up and down.

"It's no problem, Samaya wanted to go just as badly as you, I don't know if I could handle both of your attitudes if I had said no," she smiled fondly, then ruffled her daughters long, black hair that was placed in a messy ponytail, "Go now, your sister's waiting!"

Kazami shot off across the beach, the Ember Island breeze rushing again her face as she went. She looked around her beautiful island, wondering how anyone could ever live in the stuffy capital. Everyone was so stuck up and proper. Not that she wasn't proper, she just didn't understand why having a bad attitude had to go along with being proper or important. Everyone there, especially a certain noblewoman, Mai, was extremely boring, snappy, angry, or just flat out mean. Apparently it had been much worse when her father was a young prince, when Ozai, her grandfather had ruled the nation.

Kazami pulled herself out her capital-hating thoughts and pushed open the door to the Royal Family (once-vacation-now-home) House. The door opened into a large foyer area with a family portrait from when she and her sister were only 8 years old and the Water Tribe and Fire Nation insignias. Small fountains of water streamed out of the wall and into a small pool in front of the portraits and inside swam two fish, one black, one white, symbolizing the ocean and moon spirits, Tui and La.

She turned down the hall past the large kitchen and living room where she saw Aunt Suki and Uncle Sokka laying on the couch, taking an afternoon nap. "Uncle" Aang and her godmother, Toph, were sparring in the back courtyard, with Toph's husband, Bano, sitting and watching them. Aang's daughter, Talia, was sitting with Toph's blind daughter, June, watching as well. Aang had married Ty Lee, and lived with her not far down the beach, but they spent most of their time here. Since they had six daughters, Talia, Kalia, Malia, Dalia, Zalia, and Halia, they needed a bigger house than ours.

Kazami kept walking down the hall and came to the stairs, heading up towards her room. Her entire family's portraits were scattered throughout the house (with a representation of their element or nation with the portraits), but the stairs held the portraits of her family that had since passed. She smiled sadly at the picture of her great-grandmother on her mother's side, Gran-Gran number two, as Katara had called her, because she was her father's mom. Hakoda was just a small boy in this picture, and an amused look passed over her face, her grandfather looked funny as an eight year old, so mischievous. Not much had really changed though.

Kazami got to the top of the stairs on the third floor, her and Samaya's floor. The huge open room that was their "relaxation place," filled with fountains, candles, and more importantly, a large open balcony where they spent much of their time meditating. She rounded into her own room, and threw her sweaty shirt into the clothes bin, stripping down to her undergarments and jumping into the cool bath. She quickly washed the tangles out of her hair, and scrubbed down the rest of her body to perfection. She jumped out of the bath and quickly got dressed then yelled down the stairs, "Uncle Aang, could you come dry my hair?!"

"Be right up Kazami!" she heard from the courtyard. A minute later Aang appeared on the relaxation room's balcony. She smiled, "Thanks!"

"No problem Kazi," he said, then slowly used his airbending/slight heat of Firebending to dry her hair almost instantly. She bowed and he was gone in an instant, back down in the courtyard before she could thank him again. "Airbenders," she muttered fondly.

She brushed out her hair repeatedly till it looked absolutely silky smooth. She then proceeded to put on her favorite dress. It was a purple dress with no sleeves and came down just a little below her knees. She pulled on her red gloves that stretched from around her fingers and palms to her elbow and flexed her fingers, getting comfortable in them. Her sister and she always wore these gloves, just in the colors of their bending abilities. Their entire wardrobe was practically a deep purple because it was the color of water and fire mixed. The only thing that showed what they could bend was their waist bands with their insignias, different color gloves, and insignia necklaces.

She left all her hair down, letting it cascade down her shoulders and smiled at herself in the mirror. She was beautiful, she'd give herself that, all she wanted was for one little thing to be gone. She had been burned, like her father, but it was a burn that looked like a cut running down the right side of her neck and coming across her shoulder blade in the back. She had been cornered by some masked firebender when she was just ten years old, before her bending skills had improved, and she had been scared, and when she cried out for help, he burned her. Her father had soon arrived, and did not hesitate to give the man a scar twice as bad as his own, his entire face had been burned. He was not killed, but Zuko sent him to the same prison Ozai was held at.

Kazami shook her head of the thoughts and put on a little make-up. She smeared some black eyeliner on, and then gold eye shadow, bringing out her deep golden eyes. She twirled around in her dress, and decided she looked definitely good enough to go out tonight. She nodded at herself, smiled, then walked out of the bathroom. She decided against shoes, this was an island after all.

ooooo

Samaya pulled her hair back into a sloppy side ponytail that hung across her right shoulder. She pulled on her normal party clothes, a purple top that exposed her stomach, and a short purple skirt. She pulled on her blue gloves, belt with her insignia, and her insignia necklace. She nodded at her appearance, smiled, and walked out of the bathroom. She looked at her shoes, shook her head, and ran down the stairs.

Kazami was already in the kitchen when Samaya walked in, "Hey Sam, ready to go?" she said. Sam nodded, "I'm so excited to spend some more time with the airbender sisters! They're so entertaining sometimes," she chuckled. "Do you think you'll see Han tonight?" she asked tentatively.

Kazi shut her eyes, "It took me a while to realize that all that Han wanted from me was money and to be in the Fire Lord's good graces, I sincerely hope for his sake that he does not show up."

"Don't forget that our mother is also the princess of the Southern Water Tribe, it doesn't hurt to be in her good graces either," she muttered. She shook her head, "Come on, let's get going! We've got to have a positive outlook on this party! We're coming because Kalia invited us, not so we can run into old, annoying guys, right? They're not worth it, so let's just pretend they're not there!"

Kazami grinned slightly at her overly joyous sister. She reminded her of Aunt Ty Lee, the peppiest person on earth at times, although Sam was much more like Katara than Ty Lee. She nodded and turned to leave before she heard Toph yell from the courtyard, "Have fun Sugar Princess and Princess Pouty!"

Sam laughed; she loved Toph, and her nicknames. Pouty had been one of her dad's many nicknames, and Sugar Queen had been her mother's, so obviously she was Sugar Princess, and Kazami was Princess Pouty. Toph had very odd ways of showing affection.

They walked down the beach in silence, admiring the setting sun over the water. The sky turned purple as the sun fell onto the water. Sam smiled; this was exactly what her mother and father were the two elements perfectly in synch and balanced. The beauty of the two together could not be overstated, and they had produced two daughters that were the poster for the elements together.

They stepped up to the house and Kazami knocked on the door. Kalia immediately opened the door, "Hey!" she squealed, sounding exactly like her mother, Ty Lee. Kazami and Sam hugged her and stepped inside. The whole place was lit up and looked amazing, beautiful purple, red, and gold flowers and paintings everywhere. There was a huge snack table to the left side of the signature beach-style house's living room, and there were couches and small sitting areas scattered around the room. About thirty teens crowded the room, most of which she'd seen before, but some she hadn't. Sam wondered if she'd meet anyone new and interesting tonight.

Kalia pulled them both towards a group of girls sitting on a large, round couch. "Guys, this is Kazami and Samaya!" The girls smiled at them, most of them we already knew, she recognized Kalia's sister, Malia, and some girls from school, Hanna, Dalia, Nina, and Taima. Kalia introduced them to a few other girls that apparently just moved here that she thought would make great friends for all of them. The girls blushed, and Sam sat down next to one of them, Azalia.

"Where'd you move from?" she asked politely.

"I moved from the capital," she said warmly, much too warm for someone from the capital.

"Really? I'm…well I'm not from there, but my dad visits there a lot to work with his advisors and such."

"Wait…Samaya…you're the Fire Lord's daughter aren't you?!" she said, wide-eyed.

"And the daughter of the Southern Water Tribe princess, yes." She smiled, not wanting this girl to automatically think Sam was "too good" to talk to her.

"Wow, you're like…full out royalty!"

"I guess, but if you please, don't treat me like it. I prefer to just be normal, which is why my family and I live on Ember Island, we don't want to be caught up in 'Good day Princess. Please forgive me Princess, I didn't mean to accidentally cough in your presence.' It's all so overrated, I'm no higher than anyone in my own eyes, and that's how my mom's always acted. Kazi doesn't mind the attention, but she still doesn't like being left out or treated like a precious, breakable person who shouldn't overexert herself by walking two and from the beach to her house. You wouldn't understand of course, but it really is annoying," she finally finished.

"No, I understand, I certainly wouldn't want that either. I can take care of myself!" she said, sitting up straighter and smiling.

Sam sat up straighter as well; "We don't need anyone to take care of us!" they smiled and laughed lightly. Sam liked this girl; she knew they could definitely be friends.

ooooo

Kazami sat with Kalia, Malia, and a new girl Carra, discussing their plans to go shopping tomorrow. "Where is your favorite place to go?" Carra asked them.

"I love to go to the flower shop!" Kalia piped up, "They have the prettiest flowers, and they even have ones that are bright green, my color!" Ty Lee and Aang's kids were all color coded since Ty Lee had named them so similarly. The only one who wasn't was their son Taurin.

"I prefer going to my great uncle's tea shop, the Jasmine Dragon. He's the best tea maker in the world you know," Kazami said proudly.

"You mean General Iroh?" Malia asked.

"Yep!"

"We'll have to stop at both of those places then," said Carra, smiling at the girls. Kazami could see that Carra and her sisters would fit in on Ember Island just fine. It seemed that Sam was already hitting it off with Azalia near them on the couch. The two girls laughed and high fived at some witty comment the other had made. Kazami turned back to look at the girls she was talking to and almost bumped into someone else.

"Oh sorry I didn't see…" she stopped there. Han sat next to her on the couch, smiling at her innocently, "Hey Kazami, sorry if I startled you."

"It's fine, I'll see you later," she said, hurriedly standing up and turning away.

"Wait! I wanted to apologize for the way I treated you, and I shouldn't have used you like that…"

"It's fine." She replied coldly, then turned and walked over towards one of the snack tables and picking up a small pack of fireflakes. She quickly ate whole handfuls of them. The firey flavor always calmed her down. Her sister on the other hand couldn't stand the flavor, and much preferred salty foods. Everyone in her family, or in her house rather, loved all different kinds of food, therefore they had a huge variety of food, so Kazami would always be relieved when she saw food that was strictly Fire Nation.

She threw away the empty packet and downed a glass of water to wash out the taste, then went back to talk to Talia, the only firebender in Aang's family besides Taurin. "So, how's the party so far?" she asked casually.

"Actually, much better than I thought it would. No one's burned anything, smashed anything, or ruined anything for that matter. No one's even gotten in a fight, how great is that?!" she smiled.

Kazami laughed a bit, "I sincerely hope no one would try to ruin anything in the Avatar's home, and the home of the only airbenders at that. That's just disrespectful on so many levels."

"Yeah well, never underestimate teenagers' right?" Talia stated.

She nodded, "So how have things been with you and Ren? I haven't seen him here yet."

Talia shook her head, "He couldn't make it, and we've been having so many arguments…"

"Oh, about what?"

"He's been just…really snappy lately and um…" she hesitated.

"And um what?" Kazami repeated, somewhat demanding.

"He doesn't like the way the Fire Nation's being ruled. He says that things were better when the Fire Nation controlled more of the world. I strongly disagreed, my father being the one who mainly ended the war obviously influences my opinion, but how could life be better if we were all fighting? He also says that Azula should have taken the thrown, not your father…" Talia said the last part so quietly Kazami didn't hear it.

"He also says what?"

"That Azula…" she still couldn't hear her.

"That Azula what?!"

"That she should have taken the thrown and not your father!" Talia shouted. She then gasped slightly when she realized the rest of the room had gone silent. A huge blush spread across her face. Kazami's gaze immediately softened and she waved everyone away, so they would just continue their conversations and ignore them. The rest of the guests turned away and continued to talk amongst themselves. Kazami then turned to Talia and demanded, "Tell me. What else has been said against my father?"

ooooo

A/N: So…I HAD to write this, I'm sorry, but it was three in the morning and the idea just…came to me :D I will work on Stories from the Western Air Temple; I just had to write this and actually get the idea down. So in a nutshell, here are the families:

Aang and Ty Lee: Talia, Malia, Dalia, Kalia, Zalia, Halia (Ty Lee likes rhyming names)

Sokka and Suki: Timi (not yet mentioned)

Toph and Bano: June

Katara and Zuko: Kazami and Samaya

Azula and Unknown: Lamar

Up until recently, I hadn't even thought of the Aang/Ty Lee ship, but now I think it's absolutely adorable! I love Tokka, but I also love Sukka, so I decided to keep that canon. I want Azula to actually turn out good, so I gave her a son, and will show how she is very much integrated into the large family. Toph is Kazami's godmother, and Ty Lee is Samaya's godmother.

Please please PLEASE let me know how I've done on this…I've never really tried my hand at writing and sticking to it, so some feedback would be nice. I want feedback on the writing, not how much you hate a ship or something like that.
