She ducked out of the way, her brown hair swinging behind her. He sent a stream of fireballs at her head, and she rolled on the pavement, her legs moving rapidly to keep up. She swiped a barrel of water at him and he evaporated it, making it harder to breathe.
The Fire Lord's private training arena was located underground, in a room with no windows, just cement walls. They were a small amount of water barrels left, and Katara was using them wisely and sparingly.
She threw a long and very sharp whip towards him and he dove for her, yet it still sliced him across the back and he hissed.
He sent a stream of fire at the ground, heating the cement, making it more difficult for her to slide across a pathway of ice. She attempted to, but it melted almost immediately, sending her flying into the concrete, scrapes and burns erupting on her knees and elbows.

"I'll see you later?" he asks, as he seeks her eyes for reassurance. She nods, a wide smile on her face, and kisses him quickly, before walking rapidly to her room without turning back.
Once she enters her room, she whispers, "Tui and La, that was so hot."
