Sokka's POV:
I'm starring at the moon and I think of her. Yue why? A warm tear falls down my cheek. We could have gone on without the moon. You didn't have to give your self up. But a part of me knows that we couldn't go on with out the moon. Aang and Katara wouldn't be able to bend. That would break her heart. And Aang probably wouldn't be able to defeat Fire Lord Ozai. But still, why?
The warm sand seeps between my toes. The moon is so bright tonight it seems like sun light. I inhale the salty smell of the ocean. It had been three weeks since we have left the North Pole. We still haven't found Aang an Earthbending master for Aang. All the villages we come across say that all the masters are fighting in the war. Which I guess is a somewhat good thing; at least some people are trying to put an end to this war.
"SOKKA!" My thoughts are interrupted by Katara. She comes over to me and sits down. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine Katara, just thinking,"
"You know I don't think Yue would want you to be this depressed about her."
"I ALSO DON'T THINK SHE WOULD WANT ME TO FORGET ABOUT HER! YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'VE BEEN GOING THROGH! DO HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT IT'S LIKE TO LOSE SOMEONE WHO YOU LOVE?" The tears were falling freely now.
"O YOU KNOW WHAT SOKKA? I DO! SHE WAS CALLED OUR MOTHER!"
"YOU HAVE ONLY HAD TO LOSE ONE WOMAN YOU LOVE! I HAVE HAD TO LOSE TWO! SO JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" I'm ashamed with myself. Katara was only trying to help, but I don't care right now. I pick up my shoes and stomp off down shore. I need to be alone right now.
Katara, who was now alone on the beach sat down, and put her head in her hands. What was I thinking? Sokka loved her, but he has got to learn to let go. He's just like how dad was when Mom died.
Flashback-
It was a month after the Fire Nation raid. Katara clung to her mother's necklace for dear life still. Sokka, for the most part had gone back to normal. Their father on the other hand, was secluding himself from the rest of the tribe, and at times his children. The tribe was trying to rebuilt and forget the Fire Nation was ever there.
It was a bright and sunny day; most of the children were outside playing, making snow angles, or penguin sledding. Katara was playing with her one of her best friends Ting. The girls were throwing snowballs at each other and trying not to remember their friend Bo they had lost in the raid. Sokka was out looking for bones of animals to use for weapons, out near the ocean.
A couple hours later Sokka, having little less than an armful of bone-like things walked back to the village. Katara was still playing with Ting. The girls were trying to decide who had the tannest skin.
"I have the tannest," Katara said. "How can you not tell?"
"You're blind Katara, you only think you're tan because your eyes are so bright."
"My eyes are very bright, thank you. But I'm still tanner."
"Am not," Ting answered.
"Are too,"
"Not,"
"Too,"
"Not,"
"Too,"
"Ting's tanner," Sokka said coming up to the girls. "Now, come on Katara. It's getting late we need to get home." Sokka had matured much for his age since the raid. A month ago he would have thrown a snow ball at both the girls and ran off laughing. That is, he would run off laughing until his mother grabbed him by the back of his coat, and dragged him over to the girls to apologize. She couldn't do that anymore. "And Ting, you might want to get home too."
The siblings walked together into their hut. Their father was sitting down in one of the four chairs shrouding a table.
"Hi dad," Sokka said setting to bones down on the floor.
"Hi Sokka," His dad muttered.
"Hi daddy," Katara squealed taking off her hat.
"Hi Katara," He answered.
"So what's for dinner dad?" Sokka asked.
"I don't know,"
"Aw man really? I'm RRREEAAALLYY hungry and-"
"I DON'T KNOW SOKKA! I'M TRYING MY BEST HERE! IT'S NOT AS EASY AS YOU MIGHT THINK! SO QUIT ANTAGANIZING ME!"
"Daddy?" Katara stammered.
"O BE QUITE KATARA!" Katara felt her eyes swell up with tears. Her father had never yelled at her before.
"WELL FINE IF YOU DON'T WANT US HERE!" Sokka yelled grabbing Katara's hand and stomping out of the hut. They had slept with Ting's family that night.
-End Flashback
I guess I should give him a bit more time alone. We can leave tomorrow afternoon. And Katara got up and headed back to camp.
A/N: Hey peoples! Hope you liked it! Took me a while to write. I think Sokka and his dad need a bit of anger management. Anyway reviews would be great! Want to know what ya'll think.
