Chapter 1: Stranger Things Haven't Happened
"Hey, Katara. Get up." I heard Sokka telling me quietly. "What is it? Where's Aang?" I asked. "Fire nation. Aang's outside getting Apa ready so we can leave." He tugged on the sleeve of my shirt trying to get me out of the tent we slept in that night. "I don't understand why we cant just stay and fight." I pulled back. "That's why." He pointed to the scar on my arm. "I was being careless..." "You were attacked. And i'm not letting that happen to you again." "I can take care of myself." Aang walked into the tent. "Ready? Their going pretty fast," He glanced out the tent, leaning on his air bending staff. "We have five minutes. Tops."
We all started walking out through forest towards Apa. I glanced over and saw something russling in the bushes. "You guys go ahead, i'll make a distraction to lead them in a different direction." Sokka looked at me. "...Alright. Just, be careful ok?" "I will." I walked over to the bushes. "Hi." I said, smiling. "How'd you know?" Zuko, the son of the fire lord, said, sticking his head out of the bushes. "I just know these things." He smiled back. "Your brother is going to kill you if he sees us together you know that right?" "I know." I looked back. "I guess I should go..." "Yea, I don't want you to get in trouble because of me." "Good luck catching the Avatar... NOT." I said teasing him. He just smiled and waved at me. "Katara! Hurry, there almost here!" Sokka said, motioning for me to come. I climbed up Apa. "Sorry, took longer than expected." I said, hoping he wouldn't catch the thrill of lying and the adrenaline rush i get when i'm with Zuko. "Just, be careful." He hugged me. Tight. "Yip yip!" Aang yelled as Apa flew into the air, away from the fire nation. I looked over the edge, wondering where he was and what he was doing.
Yes, I know it's short... But it'll get longer and better :)
