Note: This is my first Avatar the last airbender story. I finally saw the last airbender movie and it made me want to write something about it. I know that Zuku does not end up with Katara... but I wish that they had! Sigh.

Child Breeder?

Prologue

Katara was glad that she was able to see her dear friend again. Ever since the white haired princess of the Northern Water Tribe married the prince of the Fire Nation; She was unable to see her friend again. So she was truly happy that she could see the princess again. But she was not expecting this to happen.

"What...?" Katara blinked her blue colored eyes at her dear friend and princess of the water nation. Maybe she was dreaming? She tried pinching herself and only felt a slight pinch of pain. ' Nope, I'm awake. ' But she hoped that it was a dream, she really wished that it was a dream. Why would the princess of the water tribe ask her to bare the child of the next heir of the fire nation? Maybe her ears are clocked... The white haired princess looked at her brown haired friend. She sighed; not knowing what really possessed her to even ask such a thing. "Katara... I am barren." Yue said softly and Katara's eyes widen at her words. "Prince Zuku will not be crown fire lord if I cannot give him a heir. I am his wife, but what use is a wife that cannot give birth?" Katara saw the deep sadness go across the princess face. "I can understand that... I think... but why do you want me to bare his children? I am no princess and I am not his wife."

"Yes, I do know that. But if I am not able to somehow give him a heir within the next year... are peace treaty will end and war will once again come between are nations. So that is why I must find a girl of the water tribe to bare his child. I know that they would not accept one of my servants. Someone of high ranking will only do." said Yue. Katara only frowned. They would brake a treaty because Yue could not give birth? Were they really sure that Yue was barren? Maybe she was just having a hard time getting pregnant? "With all due respect Yue, I have no high rank. Why would the fire nation even want a child from me..."

"You are the chieftain's daughter and a water bender... the only female water bender left in our nation; You are also my closest friend that I trust to be with the prince." Katara looked away and a slight blush formed on her dark skin. She didn't want to become some kind of breeder... but if Yue was unable to find someone to bare the princes child or children; war would start once again. In her heart, Katara knew that she had no choice in the matter. It didn't matter that she did not even know the prince or the fact that she did not love him. All that mattered was peace. What she really felt did not matter at all. Besides it was not like she was in love with anyone. To sacrifice herself for the good of others were better then her own desires.

"I am only doing this because of peace and because you are my friend."

The princess smiled and hugged her friend. "Thank you Katara!" she said with glee. ' I just hope nothing bad will come of this. '
