Chapter 1 – Orientation
Welcome to Omashu University were bending is at its finest.
The Courtyard…
" O my gosh! Katara! You've changed!" Suki said.
" You to Suki! I haven't seen you since last summer." Katara replied.
" Katara? Suki? Is that you?…" Toph asked.
The two girls grinned widely and stared in awe at their once dwarf like friend who now looks more like a mature blossoming woman.
" Yea Toph its us." Both girls said as they gave their young friend a hug.
" So Kat where's Aang and Sokka?" Suki asked looking for her lover.
" Well I didn't know Aang was here… but Sokka is by the fountain talking to some girls." Katara informed.
"Be right back… A-tten-tion! Say solider how ya doing cutie!" Suki said in her commander voice.
"So then I had to fight a shark… wait… Suki?!"- even though Sokka's voice got deeper Suki's presence always made it higher and tender.- " Wow! Suki how ya been? I'm great" Sokka said hugging her. When he released he left his arm around her waist.
"Oh just fine warrior dude. Come talk to me over here." Suki says as she gives the girls a dirty look to back off.
Back to Katara and Toph…
"Hey Katara!"
"Oh hey Haru how have you been?" Katara asked.
"Oh just fine, are you doin' good?" Haru asked cautiously.
"Just dandy." Katara said with a slight scoff in her voice. There was an awkward silence until Haru spoke.
"Sorry to cut this short but I got to go meet a friend of mine."Haru said trying to make Katara jealous.
"Oh fine go ahead." The waterbender spoke in a impassive voice.
After Haru ran off Katara turned to Toph…
"He probably has to go flirt with some unsuspecting guy." Toph laughs at Katara's joke.
"Ha Ha Ha ! Good one Kat…" Katara and Toph stop laughing. "Aang?" "Twinkle Toes?"
"The one and only." He said with one of his most famous cheesy grins.
They were about to start a conversation when they saw dozens of flashes and then turned to see a red and black clad figure running away from the paparazzi. But when he turned around…Bam…Crash!!!
The clad figure ran straight into an unsuspecting Katara. They both fell in an very intamately embarrassing position.
Katara started to blush wildly as she listened to the mysterious man curse under his breath about stupid paparazzi and tea and uncles and other various things. He said many quick apoligies and helped the waterbender up. Before he was off again he took a look at the person he ran into.
Zuko's POV
Before me stood a woman with the most beautiful eyes and body! Oh those eyes full of life, pleasure passion, spirit, and grace they're even the color of the ocean itself. It's as if this woman has a little piece of the ocean in her.
For a moment those blue eyes locked with beautiful gold ones.
Katara's POV
This mysterious man that stands in front of me hands still intwined with such a toned body and… and those eyes so fiery, determined, perceptive, gentle, and passionate with that hypnotizing color of molten honey- golden fire. But as soon as we looked at each other he was gone again.
At the Gyatso Auditorium…
When all the students were in the meeting hall, a dry, emotionless old man came up to the mic.
"Ahem. If you would all kindly take your seats I would like to start. My name is Master Pakku and I am the Master waterbending teacher." He said in a bored tone.
Another man came out. This man was rather short and plump. In fact he looked kinda like a chubby monkey. As he stepped up to the mic he had a… tea cup in his hands. (I can tell this is a very wise but weird man.)
"Hello young people my name is Master Iroh. You may all call me Iroh. I'm the firebending teacher." Iroh introduced himself. "Students, a young woman has accepted our request to be a teacher. I would like to introduce you to Miss Toph Bei Fong." Applause.
Toph stood and walked to the stage… " Thank you all for welcoming me." Toph said.
"Now in an orderly fashion can we have all the waterbenders in one group, earthbenders in another and firebender in one. Oh?! And Aang just fill in with a group." Pakku instructed.
"Sure thing Master Pakku." Aang shouted back while to Toph with the other earthbenders. (Toph and Aang are sort of going out not officially… yet! Muah ha ha!)
