Suki's Story
Sokka is sitting by the river, collecting water
Sokka's thoughts: Aang and Katara…Katara and Aang…ok…ew..bad images…bad…bad…bad…
Suki: Sokka! Sokka!
Sokka underneath his breath: Suki? Holy Shit! Thank you spirits! How long have I got with you until you have to go back to the dead? How long do I get with you? Can I touch you? Feel you? Kiss you?
Suki: Sokka…I'm here! I'm alive! I'm out of the prison!
Sokka: No way. You must be dead.
Suki embraces Sokka; Sokka starts bawling
Sokka: I thought I would never see you again.
Suki: me either.
Sokka: Let's take you home.
Suki: Home?
Sokka: Well, for now its our home. We are staying at The Western Air Temple.
Later that night
Suki and Sokka are both staring into each other's eyes passionately
enter Aang and Katara
Katara drops her belongings and runs and hugs Suki
Katara: Your okay! We were so worried.
Aang: Suki! goes up and hugs her too
Suki: Hey Katara…Aang. I'm glad to be back too. I have been wondering the firenation for days now after I escaped. It was so hard to find you guys! When I saw Sokka…I was so relieved. You guys picked an amazing place to hide out though. It's beautiful.
Katara: Well you can stay as long as you like. You need anything?
Suki: I'm good for now. Just a little sore.
Aang: Your probably starving. Me and Katara just got some food. Let's make dinner.
Suki: Thanks.
Aang: It's going to be delicious…
at dinner inside the Western Air Temple
Suki: These noodles are so delicious!
Sokka staring into her eyes : They are.
Katara: Are you sure you don't need anything else?
Suki: No I'm great. You've guys have been great to me. Thank you.
Katara: Well, if you think of anything you need, just tell me…okay?
Suki laughing at Katara's kindness : Ok. I will. So…what's new with you guys? Sokka told me that Toph is on a trip with…um Suki's face turns pale and she begins to look into the distance …the uh…the prince of the…
Aang: Firenation. Yeah. Zuko. I know it sounds crazy but he's actually not such a bad guy. He's really helped me with my firebending.
Suki: oh. I see. still has that dazed look on her face
Sokka: You okay?
Suki: jumps back to reality oh yeah. I'm good, sorry I just…
Katara: You've been through a lot lately haven't you? If you ever need to talk…
Suki: thanks. I got to go. runs outside; all glance at Sokka who then runs after her
outside; Suki sitting
Sokka: Suki! Are you okay?
Suki: looking away Yeah. I just needed some fresh air.
Sokka: looking at Suki who has obviously been crying : Oh God... You aren't ok are you? You're safe now...you know that right?
Suki: You…you don't know what I had to do…to escape begins to tear up
I had to sleep with Ozai to get away sobs
Sokka: face turns red; he has no idea what to say I'm going to kill him…I'm going to…I…I…
Suki: Relax...I just need some time alone... I'll be fine.
Sokka: I love you.
Suki: I love you to.
Sokka scoots closer and leans in to kiss Suki. They make out and quietly slip into Sokka's room and sleep together
14 days later; late morning
Katara: Sokka. Wake up! We need to talk.
Sokka: What?
Katara: It's Suki
Sokka: Is she ok?
Katara: Sokka, Suki is pregnant.
Sokka stares openmouthed at Katara
Enter Suki
Sokka: Suki!
Katara: I'll leave you guys alone.
Sokka: Suki. I am so sorry. I didn't expect for this to happen. This is ALL MY FAULT. To himself What are we going to do?
Suki: It's not yours…
Sokka: What…the baby? But I slept with you! How could it not be mine? Oh my god. It's Ozai's isn't it. Looks completely overtaken with anger
Suki bursts out crying and nods
Sokka: tries to comfort Suki It's ok Suki... We can get through this.
Suki still sobbing
Aang: Hey, what's going on?
Katara rushes in
Sokka: GET AWAY!!!!!
Aang quietly Sorry
Katara: Aang, come on, I'll fill you in outside.
Katara and Aang leave
Suki: leaning her head on Sokka's shoulder Don't ever leave me Sokka.
Sokka: I'm not going anywhere.
Suki: What am I going to do?
Sokka attempting to be strong w/ a trembling voice don't worry Suki, we can get through this together.
Suki laughing Just as the world seems to be crashing, you some how make it ok.
They start kissing
Katara and Aang walk in. Sokka sees Katara and quickly stops making out with Suki.
Katara: Sokka, you don't have to hide it, I know you slept with her, I don't care if you kiss her in front of me. I mean you already got her pregnant.
Sokka blushing hysterically while Suki looks away
Aang: Katara?
Katara: Ya...
Aang: Shouldn't we find Toph and Zuko? They've been gone for almost two weeks. They don't even know Suki is back! I mean, they better know what's going on...
Katara: Probably. If they come here uninformed they could just freak out and make things worst.
Aang: Yeah, I should go get them
Aang runs off to get Toph and Zuko
Katara talking to Suki and Sokka : You guys ok?
Suki: Yeah goes off to get some rest
Sokka: Yep...but uh...maybe you better stay…
Katara: Why?
Sokka: I dunno, its just your my sister and I'm kinda freaked and you seem to be pretty good with handling this type of thing…
Katara: You scared?
Sokka: Yeah.
MEANWHILE
Zuko and Toph are walking
Zuko: So what's up with that guy Sokka?
Toph: What do you mean?
Zuko: I mean with the ponytails and the dresses and the...
Toph: Well, from what I heard you used to have a pretty big ponytail yourself
Zuko: Do you like him or something?
Toph: Who? SOKKA? Blushes
Zuko: You do don't you?
Toph: Well...I mean...I don't think that I can have this conversation with you I mean you just joined our team and your like fire nation…
Zuko: I am not...
Toph: and I mean the way you look at Katara, I don't think you can...
Zuko: KATARA!? I mean she's nice and all but...seriously?
Toph: Oh come on you can't deny it.
Zuko: to himself Whatever…
Toph punches him : Have you ever really liked someone though?
Zuko: well this one girl in the Firenation... Toph makes a face and sticks her tongue out, Zuko rolls his eyes
Zuko: whose name was Mai and she was totally...cool. sighs
Toph: You miss her?
Zuko: yeah... Hey wait… you know what! I don't think I can have this conversation with you!
Toph rolls her eyes and laughs
Aang runs up
Toph: Hey Aang
Aang: Hey nods a hello at Zuko
Toph: What's up?
Aang: Its Suki... She's back
Toph: I thought she was dead!
Aang: Well apparently not because she's here. She came a few weeks ago when you were off in town.
Toph; This is incredible!
Zuko: Who's Suki?
Aang: She's a Kyoshi warrior, she's helped us out of a few tight spots, and Sokka has a thing for her.
Zuko looks knowingly at Toph and Toph looks away
Toph: Sokka's girlfriend.
Zuko: Ponytail has a girlfriend?
Aang: Ya, and she's got some news. I'll let Katara and Sokka tell you back at camp though.
Toph: What is it?
Aang: I'll tell ya later….it seems like she was pretty beat up in the fire nation prison though.
Zuko looks away
Aang: Like really beat up.
They start walking back to camp and when they arrive they see Katara and Sokka and Suki.
Toph: Suki! Are you ok?
Suki: Oh hey Toph. Good to see you. Nice to meet you Zuko.
Zuko: Hey…Suki right? What's this news Aang told us about?
Suki looks at Sokka and Sokka gives her a nod
Suki: takes a deep breath I'm ...pregnant
Zuko: Is it… chuckling a little Sokka's?
Toph: totally mad Well of course its Sokka's! She was in prison the whole time before that! Who else cud she have slept with??
gives a disapproving glare at Suki then Sokka
Suki: actually its…
Sokka cuts in : yeah it's mine. Totally my idea. Not her fault. Yeah. Its mine.
Zuko: Whoa. I uh ...
Suki gives Sokka a look but follows along
Sokka: to Zuko You know, you can go if you want
Zuko: ok
Zuko runs off
Toph screaming : What are you guys gonna do!?
Sokka: to Toph Calm down
Katara: Toph, I think you should come with me, we need to talk.
Katara leads Toph aside
Katara: You gotta give him a break.
Toph: Sokka? I wasn't...
Katara: This is a fragile situation… he's only...
Toph: SIXTEEN… he shouldn't be...
Katara: This is so awkward…
Toph: It's fine, it's just...

Toph: Sounds good...sounds good
MEANWHILE:
Aang: What...what were you thinking?
Sokka: You like Katara right?
Aang: yeah but I wouldn't... like have a kid with her...
Sokka tearing up a bit : Yeah I'm pretty much an idiot. It's just that she was dying you know...like she's suppose to be dead…
Aang: You really love her don't you?
Sokka: Yeah, and then we got talking and she was so hurt back there...like stuff that I won't even tell u... I mean you're just a kid…
Aang: This war is horrible…
Sokka: Yeah it really is….I never meant for this to happen….
Aang: I know.
Aang and Sokka share a brotherly hug
LATER THAT NIGHT
everyone is asleep. Aang walks into Katara's room
Aang: Katara are you awake?
Katara: What's wrong Aang? Is someone hurt?
Aang: Well, I just...I need to talk to you
Aang takes a deep breath
Aang: Katara, all that's happened in the past few days, Suki and Sokka... Well, I know they made a mistake, but what if... What if they really loved each other... and there was nothing they could do?
Katara: What are you trying to say?
Aang: I'm saying I love you Katara, and I don't think we can help what we're about to do.
They start making out
Katara: breathlessly We should stop
Aang: also breathlessly Yeah we should. they continue to make out Aang and Katara both fall asleep together and forget to wake up early to get dressed and back to their beds in the morning

Sokka starts ranting and yelling at Aang
Katara: Sokka!
Aang: Sokka, calm down!
