1"C'mon, let's get them up!"Destiny whispered to her older sister as they were peeking into their parents room. Destiny was the lively one. Always had something to do.
"Momma needs rest, let em sleep"said Kya, rubbing her eyes. Kya was a little mature for her age, resembled alot of Her mothers features, but had her father's eyes.
"What are you guys doing" asked little Katara, A.K.A. Tara. She was the angel out of the six, soon to be seven."Mommy needs rest, we shouldn't-" Tara was cut off from the sound of her younger sister, Destiny, rushing into the room.Too late
Then ther eldest brother, Koda, came out of his room, still huddled under the covers."What are you guys doing up, Mom and Dad need to sleep!" He looked over at His eldest and most mature sibling, Kya. She was shaking her head. Darn,too late
He rushed into his parents' room as quick and quietly as he could, Destiny had already made it over to their bed. Dont do it!
Desitny did an airbending jump onto their parent's bed. Se began to jump up and down, continuously."Wake up mommy"
Katara pulled the covers over her face and whined."Not now Destiny" Before Destiny was born the whole house could be in a whisper. It's like she is always on an adrenaline rush.
"Mommy, Daddy, wake up, wake up! WAKE UP!" Destiny said as she was still jumping up and down on the bed. Aang used his airbending to make her softly make her land in his lap.
"What are you doing up?" He said sleepily.
"Waking you up" She said with complete innocence.
"Go back to sleep, Okay?"Aang told his young Daughter, holding her on her shoulders.
"I cant, that is why I cameto get you and Mommy up." She said smiling. Aang got out of bed, with only some shorts on. He picked Destiny up out of the bed and started to carry her back to her room. He noticed his Eldest son standing right at the door, monitoring.
"What are you doing up?" Aang asked him yawning."Destiny?"
"Destiny" He answered back."I know..I know...Go to sleep" He said walking off to his room
"No wonder" Aang made itover to the slightly cracked door and opened it, only to find Kya and Tara in their nightclothes, Looking at him."Good night!" he emphasized. They took the cue and headed back to their room.
Tara airbended herself right under her sheets. Kya gave Tara a quick look with her eyes squinted. Then Kya got into her bed and got into under the covers.
"Your just jealous!" Tara said. She hated when she didnt get along with her siblings. Koda would always call her a 'showoff' when she used airbending to overcome a task.
"Why should I be jealous of a showoff!"She yelled back."What are you gonna do? kkkwwwyyy wittle baby?." Kya always knew her sister was sensitive, but never really got into fights. They were the closest out of the whole bunch.
Tara was devastated, she never thought her big sister, her role model, would take a stike at those strings. She sat there motionless. Then the stinging feeling came, and she couldnt hold in."MMMOOMMYYYY" She cried."DDAAAADDDYYY!" 'sniff sniff' Aww man I didnt think I would make her cry!
Aang opened the door to Destiny's room. You would think it would be a mess, but she kept it generally clean. Aang layed her in her bed, she was still wide awake."Stay here until I come back"
Aang speeded over to his eldest daughters' room. He heard Tara crying, and knew there must have been a fight. But at two in the morning? You cannot have a good reason to keep everyone up. Can you? Aang knew it was added to his work as a father...always watching over his children.
He opened the door, and saw Kya with her arms crossed, sitting up in her bed. She had a frown on and only because she knew she had done wrong. Tara was sitting in her bed, head in her knees, crying full blast. Aang went over to her and sat on her bed, doing his best to comfort her. He put her in his lap and hugged her. He used one of his hands to rub her back.
"What's wrong" Tara started crying even harder. "Cmon,shhhhh, tell me whats wrong."Aang told her.
"Kya 'sniff' called me 'sniff' a showoff" Tara said still crying.
"What? Kya, come over here now." said Aang. Kya hopped down from her bed and walked over trying to avoid eye contact." Why did you call your sister a showoff?"
"Because, I-'higher pitch' I-I-" Tears ran down Kya's face."I was jealous, I'm 'sniff' sorry"Kya ran over to her bed and burried her face in her pillow, while she cried.
What is she crying for?
At the same time, little Katara stopped crying. "Are you alright? Can you go to sleep now?" Aang asked his daughhter.
"I-I think so." Aang picked her up and tucked
her into her bed.Then he went over to Kya's side of the room. He held
her up side ways, so that he was using both of his arms to hold her.
Like she was in a cradle.
"Im sorry...I just dont want you to
be mad at me."Kya answered looking away.
"Im not mad...just dissapointed. I dont like when you guys fight. What if you never made up? You'd feel bad, wouldnt you?" She nodded into his arm." Besides.. how could I stay mad at something so pretty"Aang tickled her. Kya let out some laughs. "Get some sleep, arent you in the wterbending demo tommorow?" Aang tucked her into her bed and decided it was time to deal with Destiny. He slowly walked away when Kya said"I'm sorry Dad."Aang felt so proud, he went over to his oldest daughter and kissed her on the forehead.
"It's okay... I love you" said Aang as he went to the door. Katara looked at him while he was at the door. Aang had his eyes go dart over to her.
"Love you" Kya said as she closed her eyes. Katara turned in bed when her dad kissed her on the forehead also.
"I didnt forget about you, Love you...goodnight"
"Love you"She said sleepily, and Aang went to destiny's bed. She was up looking at the stars through her skylight. Aang joined her for a few moments and then she spoke out.
"I couldnt sleep" She said.
"Dont get up, and wake everyone else up, until the sun rises, unless its an emergency. You woke up almost everyone in the house tonight. People need sleep so they can do their best during the day. You dont want me and mommy all cranky tomorrow, do you?"He told her.
"But I'm not sleepy." She pouted. Aang had a devious grin on his face."What?"Aang leaned over destiny's bed and started to tickle her. Destiny was out of breath trying to speak."Stop...hahaha...No...Daaaaad...ahahaha" Aang stopped and she was slightly still laughing. Destiny was catching her breath when Aang let out a small giggle and tucked her in.
"Tired now?" He asked.
"Nope" She answered.He gave her that 'what do you want look'."Can you tell me a story? I promise I'll go to sleep" She made the puppy face.
Not the face, It's too cute, must resist!
"Pllllllleeeeeaaasssee?" Destiny tried to make her eyes as wide as possible.
"One-short story, then bedtime." Aang mustered up. Destiny nodded and smiled, eager to hear the story."Okay, Once upon an iceberg-"
"Once upon an iceberg? That's not right!"
Destiny said questioningly.(is that a word?)
"This is right,
I guess you dont want a story" He said starting to walk away.
"NO! your right,your right, I just never heard- once upon an iceberg before." she said.
"Alright, as I was saying, Once upon an iceberg-" Aang told the story of how he fell in love with Katara, but used 'boy' and 'girl' instead of their names. "-and now they have six children, with one more on the way. The End"
"Mommy told me a similar 'yawn' story, but it had more 'yawn' about the girl 'soft breathing'" Destiny fell asleep.
Finally
Aang made his way back down the hall, checking to see if all the kids were asleep. Thankfully they were, and so with that, Aang made it back to his betrothed.
"Are they asleep?"Katara asked laying back on a pillow. Katara was grateful she had married Aang. He would do anything just to make sure she was alright. While Katara was pregnant with the other six. Aang took care of her and her problems, just to make sure she didnt over do herself. Aabn loved his family more than anything else in the whole world."Thank you" She told him cupping one side of his face with her palm.
"Yes..don't worry, go back to sleep." Aang told her. then he layed down beside her."Not even a problem" he smiled at her.
"Okay...but I need something" She said turning away from Aang's side of the bed. He sighed.
"Alright, what do you need, are you thirsty, hot, cold?"He asked her sitting up.
"I'm a little cold, I need for you to...hold me" She said smiling. Aang got back in bed kissed Katara on the cheek and put an arm around her. Aang still gave her that feeling in her the feeling. She fell in love with him everyday, over and over."Aang?"
"Hmmm" he mumbled through his lips.
"Love you"
"Love you more"
"Goodnight" he said. Katara turned for a moment kissed him and said "Goodnight, and no, I love you more" Aang was asleep, but she thought she got the message to him.
