HAPPILY EVER AFTER

Hello.

I am a really big fan of Kataang, which is the very reason why I couldn't finish Come Back to Me.

Anyway, this is just another story…

CHAPTER 1: Running Away

My name is Katara Bane. I am the Queen of the Southern water tribe. Right now, I am married to Prince Aang or King Aang. If you are wondering how I got married to him and how I got my place on the throne, this is my fairytale…

My tale begins since I was a child. My father, King Hakoda III, was a good ruler of the Southern Water tribe. He married Kya, my mother. When I was born, my mother died. So, my father lived in grief for years. When I was six, a carriage broke down on one of our roads. A woman was driving it in the rain, and it ended up damaged. My father found her beautiful, and her name was Reveka. Soon, they got married. But, the kingdom fell into despair, as we learned that Reveka was an old enemy of our past. She-specifically- was my mother's friend, but hatred grew between them and they became hateful enemies. She tried many times to overthrow my mother, but every time, she failed. Now with her on the throne, she had great power over us. Somehow, she forgot about me, but she made the kingdom forget the past and she made them love her. Since she forgot about me, she never knew about my knowledge. She killed my father, too. I hid myself in my tower which was abandoned. I lived there until now.

I am 18 years old. And I hold a power no one has ever got in my kingdom, water bending. I can make water do my every will, my every command. And after years of training, I have become a Master.

Today was going to be a ball, for a new prince in the Southern Air Temple. He was probably some stuck-up little prince who shows off. Anyway, my plan is to raid the ball, steal all the gold, and live my own life in the woods planning my revenge. And not just any forest, I am going to live in a forest no one ever dares go in, the forbidden forest. I scurried around the tower and found a gown, a mask (since it was a Masquerade), and a pair of heels. I quickly took my dagger (which I found in the tower) and hurried out of my tower and into grand lights and many people. I walked gracefully inside, gladly no one noticed me coming in from the stairs leading to the tower. The sound of trumpets came and the Queen entered. Another sound of trumpets came, and came in a man who made my cheeks grow hot. He looked 18, had a bald head, a goofy smile, and stormy grey eyes. He was handsome, but I wouldn't fall for any man. I secured my mask tightly, and felt my dagger strapped with leather across my waist. I was ready for action. When the prince was at the Queen's side, I ran forward, and ripped my dress. Underneath the shredded garment was my ocean blue dress. I wore a white leather strap which held my dagger and I let my hair flow down. My mask was the only thing keeping my disguise. The Queen looked at me and said, "My dear, all eyes are on you, will someone get her a proper gown?" My face grew red with anger and I ripped off my mask. "Reveka stop this fake innocence at once! You are not the rightful Queen of the Tribe! Because I am Princess Katara, daughter of King Hakoda III and I am the rightful heir to the throne of the Southern Water Tribe!" I said getting my dagger. The Queen looked at me with hatred and sent her guards to attack me. But luckily, there was a huge fountain nearby and with one move of my hands, there was a huge wave coming towards them and it froze them on the spot. People looked bewildered and started murmuring amongst themselves. Prince Aang just stared at me, mouth wide open. I quickly ran towards the vault where the Queen kept her gold. I unfroze the guards and used the water as an icy wall preventing anyone from coming after me. I quickly took all the gold I could and using the water from the icy wall I created a wave big enough to carry me and all the other water was used to break the wall of the vault leading towards the forbidden forest.

I ran and ran in the woods. Not knowing where I was going really. I just wanted a new life, and a plan, a plan to overthrow Reveka and claim my rightful place on the throne. I stopped running when I arrived in a clearing. There was a little shop there. A dwarf-or a short man- beckoned me to come towards him. He said, "My dear, you have a lot of gold on you. Might want to make a trade?" I was curious so I said, "What will you give in return?" "This Northern Star which can grant 3 wishes in exchange for 5 gold pieces," he replied showing me a bright star. I was convinced so I shrugged and said, "Sure why not?" I handed 5 gold pieces as he gave me the star.

I had been surprised at the Dwarf's shop for when he had finished saying, "Tootles!" The shop literally took off into the woods. Now, I was the only one left in the clearing. Two trees were bent at an odd fashion, and I realized, it would make a fine home. I said, "I wish that the two trees bent would become a fine home." Suddenly, a huge breeze swept through. Logs, twigs, and cloth came starting to build two trees into a comfy home. I stepped inside, and somehow there were torches, a bed, and a cupboard which had food, a bathroom, and a little dining table. "I wish that no one would dare enter the woods," I said, just to safe because what if someone would enter. The star grew brightly and it darkened. Must have used all my wishes, it probably took two wishes to make this home, I thought to myself. I slowly walked towards my comfy bed and slept.

Hello my dear readers! That was the first chapter, and I am sorry for any grammatical error…
