Chapter one:
Eww, the new kid.

Aang slammed the door of his new Honda Civic Hybrid and started the engine. The car roared to life as he drove out of the garage and onto the street. I still think this is a bad idea. Aang connected his IPod touch to the dock built into the dash of his car. He drove along his street and turned down the main road leading him towards the shopping centre. He pulled over at the service station and filled his car with gas. He pulled out his wallet as he walked towards the counter. As Aang sat back down he felt the all too familiar vibration of a text message, he pulled out his phone seeing his father's name flashing on the screen "behave kid" . Aang threw his phone onto the passenger seat and continued his trip along the main road towards his new school.

Aang pulled into the school parking lot a few minutes later, a crowd gathered around his car noticing they had never seen a midnight black Civic Hybrid pull into the lot before. Aang climbed out of his car and slung his back pack over his left shoulder and pushed the button on his key to lock the car. "Hey kid, nice car." A kid called most likely a senior judging by his height and his tone of voice.

"Thanks?" Aang answered awkwardly, as he took in his surroundings. The grass was greener, the buildings were newer. He looked around the car lot, his hybrid was easily the best car he could see at that moment. He smiled to himself as he placed his earphones into his ears and selected a song from his iPod.

He walked towards the main office to collect his time table from the lady behind the counter. "hello" Aang said as he approached the counter.

"Name?" The grouchy woman asked.

"Aang, I'm new, Gyatso's boy" Aang said passing the woman his enrolment forms.

"Here you are Mr. Aang." The woman said passing him a package. "here is your time table and your books, also in the tub is your locker key and number, do not lose them!"

"thanks.." Aang said walking out of the office and back towards his car. He pushed the button again and the orange flashing lights signalled the unlocked doors. He sat in the front seat as he tore open his package to look at his time table, and to find his locker key and number.

He put the key in his pocket and looked at his time table

Bending, great, that's just great. Aang said sarcastically in his head, he didn't like learning new things, from a school, because hey, he is an air bending master, it will all be so basic.

From the corner of his eye Aang noticed a blue ford falcon pull into the lot across from him. Out stepped the most beautiful girl Aang had ever seen. She wore a light blue short sleeved dress that hung below her knees. The dress clung to her upper body lightly reflecting on her gorgeous curves, but spread out freely around her lower body.

Aang stepped out of his car and pulled his now book filled bag over his shoulders, he unknowingly walked towards the blue ford and before he could stop himself the words escaped his lips.

"Hey" he called to the beautiful girl. A older boy stepped out of the driver's seat and walked towards another guy with a dark maroon scar over casting his left eye, And a gloomy looking girl.

"Hey" The girl replied studying the boy before her. He had pale white skin and storm grey eyes, with shaggy black hair. He was wearing a white shirt that stopped at his elbow's, with dark black suit pants. She had to admit to herself, he was rather attractive.

"My names, Aang, I'm new."

"I'm Katara. That's my brother Sokka" She said pointing towards the boy who had earlier climbed out of the car.

"Katara aye, that's a pretty name" Aang said making the girl before him blush a deep crimson.

"Thanks" Katara said smiling.

"HEY WHOS CAR IS THAT." Sokka said running towards Aang's black hybrid.

"Boys these days; getting over excited about some rich kid's car." Katara said referring to her brother.

Aang laughed "that's my car" Sokka turned to look at Aang. His jaw dropped.

"You, own this?" Sokka asked looking back and forth between the car and Aang.

"Hmm, so you're a rich kid hey Aang?" Katara asked sticking her tongue out at him in a playful manor

Aang rubbed the back of his head. "Well my dad gave it to me, as a present, because I didn't want to move here, he said, new town new car." Aang shrugged. "or some crap like that."

Katara smiled at her new friend.

But her smile soon faded, she felt a hand on her back. "Hey katara, you look good today."

"Beat it Jet" Katara said turning around and landing a punch hard on Jet's stomach.

"Bad move" Jet said grabbing hold of her arm and pulling her towards him. As Jet's was about to pull Katara in for a hug, he found himself pulling himself up from the floor.

There Aang stood in a defensive manor in front of Katara. Jet stood up and swung at Aang. Aang side stepped him and landed another hard punch in the boy's chest. Jet gulped as blood escaped his mouth. Aang swung again landing a punch in the side of Jet's face. Jet fell to the floor with a thud.

"Um Aang, little extreme don't you think?" katara asked as she stood there shocked at what she had just witnessed. Jet's a senior, and one of the toughest guys in the school, and he just got his ass handed to him by Aang.

"Simple thanks would be nice" Aang joked as he whipped the blood from his finders with jets jacket. "Are you allright?"

"Much better now" She said as Jet walked away mumbling. Sokka approached the two of them.

"KATARA ARE YOU ALLRIGHT?" Sokka asked over reacting. "thanks kid, Jets been bothering my sister for awhile now."

"Hey its no problem. Seems that guy got what he deserved." Aang said smiling again.

Sokka looked at the boy before him. "Hey, im Sokka, Katara's older brother, I haven't seen you around before, are you new?"

"Yeh, im Aang, I just moved her from the south." Aang answered pulling out his timetable again. Aang studied the time table before putting it back in his pocket. "Hey, I gotta go find my locker, talk to you's later hey?"

"Yeh sure" Katara said smiling as Aang walked away.

"Bye kid" Sokka called to the boy.

"What just happened?" Katara asked her brother as they walked over to Zuko and Mai (boy with the maroon scar and gloomy looking girl).

"Im not sure, I think we just made a new friend" Sokka said smiling.

Zuko stood from his seat pulling his back pack with him, "Hey guys im gonna go dump my shit in my locker, catches later."

"Bye…" Mai said as she followed her boyfriend into the school.

-

Aang found his locker and dumped his books in. he reached into his bag and pulled out his bending uniform, light orange worrier Airbending clothing. He closed his locker and walked over to the bath rooms to change. It had been awhile since he had worn his bending outfit, and it felt strange to be wearing it once again. He returned to his locker to see Katara piling her books into the locker next to him. "Hey again" He called, and Katara turned to see him in his clothing.

"You're an air bender?" Katara asked studying his robes. "Not to many of those left at this school."

"Why where are they?" Aang asked surprised.

"they all moved away to the schools in the north, south, east and west temples. I think there is only fifteen or so left here." Katara explained placing the last of her books in her locker.

Aang opened his locker and put his clothing on the top shelf, along with his phone, wallet, ipod, and car keys. He then closed the door again and looked at his time table. "oh," he said. "hey do you know where the Air sanctuary is?" Aang asked reading it off his timetable.

"Umm, its just down the hall to your left and then right at the end of the corridor." Katara said pointing in the direction.

"thanks" Aang muttered starting his walk towards his class. "See you later I guess"

"Bye Aang" Katara called.

Master Yangchen began the class by getting her students to spar in a tournament that she would supervise. First battle. Aang vrs Le-ton.

Aang bowed to his opponent as the battle began. Lu-te jumped a few meters into the air before shooting a ball of air back at Aang. Aang simply side stepped the blast before shotting a air whip at the other boy. Lu-te fell to the floor. He shot more blasts of air at Aang who kicked his foot making a wall of air block the attacks. He then punched the air shotting large balls of air at Lu-te. Knocking him out of the ring, and out of the match. Victory to Aang.

And the rest of the class continued pretty much the same, until Aang had one the entire competition almost effortlessly.

Aang returned to his locker and changed back into his casual clothing. He pulled his locker closed as he noticed Katara walking towards him. "Hey Katara" Aang called to the beautiful girl.

"Hey Aang." Katara giggled as she put her books into her locker and grabbed out her next session books. "what do you have next?" She asked pulling out her English books.

"Umm," Aang said looking at his time table. "English with Joo Dee"

"Hey, so do I, looks like we have some classes together." Katara said smiling.

Aang smiled too as they walked to their next class together.

-

when class had finally finished Aang dumped his books in his locker and pulled his car keys out from his pocket. He started for the school car lot, but was stopped by a gentle hand placed on his shoulder; he turned to see Katara smiling at him.

"Why don't you come spend recess with me?" She asked and Aang nodded following her back into the school and onto the oval. There sitting under the shade of a tree at the far corner of the oval sat a group of bored looking teens.

Moments later the new friends reached the group, " Hey guys this is Aang." Katara said to the group. "Aang this is, Zuko, Mai, Toph, Suki, and you already know Sokka."

Everyone said their individual hello's before returning to their previous activities. Zuko holding Mai in his arms whispering something into her air, and receiving a light giggle from the tall girl. Toph, arms and legs outstretched seemingly asleep on the soft grass. And Sokka and Suki playing some game, involving the "it" person to tag first on the shoulders, then the chest and finally the head of their opponent individually.

Aang sat down next to Katara. "So Aang, what brings you here, to the central part of town?"

"Well my father is a bank manager, he owns "Air heads" Bank down on Main Street, he brought it a month ago, and we moved here last week so he could run it. He bribed me with my car to get me to come." Aang answered.

"What about your mother?" Katara asked noticing she hadn't been mentioned.

"Shes dead." Aang answered blankly.

Everyone stopped their activities and looked at Aang. "Oh, I'm sorry." Katara said seeing it was not a topic people liked to discus. "Sokka and I lost our mother when we were little. She died of cancer."

Tears escaped her eyes as did Sokka's. "My mother died giving birth to me." Aang said tears now falling down his face. "I was born in the southern temple, but we moved here. Now I live in a four bedroom house in one of the richest streets in the city."

Sokka hugged his sister for comfort. "Im sorry Aang." Katara said as she sat back down gathering her feelings again.

"Don't be," Aang said standing up.

"What are you doing?" Zuko asked witnessing the scene before him had reminded him of his own life.

"The bell is about to go" As if on cue the bell rang and Aang walked broken towards his locker. He grabbed his art books and walked to class.

Katara met him out side his class room door way and placed a small but sweat kiss on Aang's cheek. "It will all be all right" Katara said before walking towards her next class.

Aang felt his cheek, and it was then he noticed just how much he liked Katara, she was more then just a pretty face; she's smart, she's caring, she's all I want.

Aang sighed and walked into his class. And it all went by in a blur. He found himself drawing rough sketches of Katara in his work book as he thought peacefully about her.

Before he knew it it was lunch, and he was sitting at a table eating with his new friends. He sat with Katara at his left, and Zuko at his right. And he was happy. Lunch raced past and by the end of it, he had learnt a lot about the people he shared comfort with. Zuko was actually the banished prince of the fire nation. But he didn't mind living the simple life of a school boy. He lived with Mai and her family in rather full house. Toph was blind but could see with her feet, and she lived with her parents, barley aloud out of her bedroom. And was protected by guards a lot. Sokka and Katara lived a few blocks away from Aang, and although their father was a soldier helping rebuild in the earth kingdom, they still got to talk to him everyonce in a while when he was on break. And Suki lived in a small house with her parents and brother and sister. He had found out that Zuko had an evil little sister, and that his mother had vanished when he was eight. The end of day bell rang a few hours later and Aang walked out to his car. On his way there he saw Sokka and Katara having some trouble with their own car. "Need a lift?" Aang asked as he passed by them.

" I think we might." Katara answered as Sokka climbed out of the driver's seat, declaring his car officially stuffed. "Thanks Aang. Sokka, we are getting a lift from Aang lock the car and lets go."

Sokka shoved the key into the door and locked it. The three walked across the lot to Aang's car and pilled in. Katara sat in the front with Aang to give directions, and the main reason. She wanted to be next to him for awhile longer. As they pulled out of the school lot, Sokka coudnt help but ask. "What are we going to do about my car?"

Aang looked through his phone for a number before finding one and passing it to Sokka. "Call this, it's my dad's friends business just tell him the address and he will drop the car off at your house for free. Since its on my number, he will know you're a friend of mine." Aang said as Sokka dialled the number.

Aang and Katara talked amongst themselves before Sokka finished on the phone. When they reached the location Katara thanked Aang by kissing his cheek again and passing him a small piece of paper. Sokka and Katara thanked Aang again before walking into their home. Aang drove away along the road. He reached the traffic lights joining him to the main road, and he took this time to read the note from Katara. 0435 123 9784 give me a call, - Katara. Aang smiled to himself and entered the number into his cell. He drove all the way to his home, where he parked his car in the spacious garage, before walking into his home. His father had not yet returned from work so the house was empty, except for Aang's pet Dog Appa, and his flying Lemur Momo. Aang walked upto the bath room and combed his hair. He removed his white shirt and turned the shower on. Moments later he climbed into the steaming water as thoughts of the day flooded back into his mind. Sitting there alone in his car. Seeing the most beautiful girl in the world step out of the car. Being able to talk to her. Beating up a random stranger. Befriending Zuko, Sokka, Mai, Toph, Suki, and most important. Katara. minutes passed before Aang stepped out of the shower and pulled on a pair of tracksuit pants and a plain black shirt. He walked into his room and pulled out his laptop from a draw, he switched it on and waited for it to load. Once it was all set and loaded, Aang logged into his facebook account and found six new friend requests, and three inboxes. The first friend request was from Katara, and he accepted instantly, then Sokka, then Toph, than Mai, then Suki, and finally Zuko. He cheeked his inbox to find the first message to be from Jet. He clicked on the icon. Wat u did 2day wz stupid, big mistak kid, ur in 4 da beat down of ur life. – Jet. Aang clicked on the second message from Katara. hey, aang, thanks for the ride home, sokka says hey btw. Have a good night, see you tomorrow. And the last message was from Kuzon, Aang's cousin. Hey bud, hows the new school.? Aang not being in the mood to answer ignored all three emails. Before falling to sleep with a picture of katara opened on the screen.

Gyatso didn't return until late, and when he did, he found Aang in the lounge room, ear phones in, listening to music. Gyatso walked up to his boy and tapped his shoulder. "How was school son?" He asked as Aang pulled his head phones out.

"It was ok" Aang said not looking at his own father.

"Aang I know you didn't want to move here, but it's the best we can do, I own a bank for Christ's sake, one of the most popular banks in the world. We have a good life here. Don't ruin it with this attitude of yours."

"Leave me alone." Aang said putting his ear phones back in and walking up to his room. It was around 9:15 when Aang decided to turn his laptop on and check his facebook once again.

two new messages.
To Aang
subject: we needa talk.

Hey Aang. I know we only just met, but hearing your story about your mother has given me some ideas. You see, when I was eight. My mother vanished. And I haven't seen her since. I was wondering if you would could help me get pass some of my problems about losing her.

thanks aang.

- Zuko

Aang replied
no worries Zuko, although I mightn't be much help, I didn't meet my mother, so I don't know what I could do to help.

-Aang

Aang opened the other email to see it from Coco, a girl in his bending class.

to Aang
subjet: (none)

Hey angie hows life, you looked really cute while you were fighting all those boys.

Aang decided not to reply and soon found himself in the family dining room eating dinner prepared by his father.

A few hours later Aang returned to his room and fell asleep, this time dreaming of the beautiful water tribe girl he had met, and suddenly felt a connection with the day before.
