The One…Kiss

Chapter one: Deal with the devil

Authors notes: Don't really have anything to say other than this story takes place when the gang begins to try and blend into the fire nation. Also, the Tokka in this story is a joke; I personally hate the pairing of Toph and Sokka. Whopsie, guess I lied but there is one thing I need to say. The cave of 2 lovers episode never happened in my story. And yes, that is somewhat important

Disclaimer: If I owned avatar do you think that the main pairing would be Katara and Aang?

Aang had just arrived at their camp from a wonderful day at school, something rare for Aang. "Oh! Aang! I'm glad you're here; I need you to go get some water from the river. I'm kinda busy fixing Toph's clothes because they were ruined in another scam that I warned her about going on," Katara said, glancing over at Toph trying to sneak across to her earth tent. When he saw her, he couldn't help but laugh; she apparently was not clothed at all save for the large barrel like carton over her. Aang's laugh was met by a splash to the face with what he hoped was mud. "Ok, no problem. But where's Sokka?" Aang asked, wiping the…substance…from his face

"Well…I'm not quite sure what happened, but his nose sure was bleeding a lot…maybe Toph punched him or something," Katara replied, still stitching up Toph's shirt.

"Oh, okay then. I guess ill be going then," Aang said, throwing off his headband. Boy did that thing get uncomfortable! After about 15 minutes of trekking through the forest, he finaly found the half naked fire bending lady…wait, what!? When Aang saw the woman shooting fire, he dropped the buckets he was carrying and his jaw. 'Hey, she looks kinda like… nah, she would never do this…plus the hair is too long, it comes down all the way down, a bit past her shoulders,' Aang thought. As Aang began to pick his buckets back up, deciding to come back at another time, a fireball was hurtled his way. Aang managed to dodge the fireball, but could not dodge the huge gust of wind that came with the tree the stray ball had knocked down. Aang was sent flying towards the mystery woman. She turned around just in time to exchange looks. 'The avatar!' she thought

'It is her!' he thought. For a mere instant, his stormy gray eyes met her sparkling golden eyes, just before their skulls cracked into each other.

He woke up slightly earlier than she did. He didn't even bother opening his eyes. His head hurt like hell…and what was with this ground? It was soft, very soft. It smelled nice too. Now he was curious. 'I wonder what it taste like…' Aang thought. Eyes still closed, he opened his mouth, and slowly slid his tongue out. What he found was…a hole? It was pretty moist in the hole too. When he heard a groan from beneath him, he cracked his eyes open only to see a pair of dazed golden eyes open. Just then, he realized that the ground he was on wasn't ground at all. It was Azula! 'Not only was my first kiss that I was saving for Toph…I mean Katara stolen, but she's waking up!' Aang thought. 'Need a plan, need a plan, need a plan!!' well, he thought of a plan. The problem is, his body wouldn't move; he was paralyzed with fear! As he stared into the now fully aware, and infuriated princess' eyes, he felt an unnaturally strong punch to his gut. He flew up at least 4 feet in the air, falling on his head and loosing consciousness once again.

A few minutes later, Aang found himself roped to a tree and Azula pacing back and forth, nothing but a towel covering her…mature body. Aang knew he should have been worried for his life. He had been captured by the woman who would give birth to a child, drown it in pig's blood, and then serve it to old women if it would get her what she wanted. (It was a nightmare that frequented him sometimes.)

As much as Aang should have been worried, he couldn't keep his mind off that kiss. 'What in the world made me want to actually taste the ground! That was beyond stupid!' Aang thought to himself. All the while, Azula was mumbling to herself as to what exactly should be done. She caught the Avatar, but on her vacation to this little town with tons of hot springs! It was ridiculously easy too. She looked up at her captive, who was starring at her.

"What are you starring at you arrow-headed runt!" she hissed. Aang could only stare at her steadily dropping towel. She noticed where his eyes were and let loose another strong punch. But this one seemed to unravel along the way, turning into a vicious slap across the face. "What did my head do to anyone?! This is the third time in the past 10 minutes I've been hit on the head!" said Aang in a burst of rage. Azula ignored his fit for the most part and continued to think about what she should do. 'I know that the brunt of the blame will fall on Zuko, but there will undoubtedly be hell to pay for me as well,' Azula thought. 'And a fresh corpse will cause suspicion as well,' Azula then turned and faced Aang. "It seems as though I have been caught by my own lie," she said plainly. When here captive gave here a puzzled look, she felt the need to explain further. "I'm letting you go, you fool!" she screeched virulently. Aang nodded quietly, swallowing a lump that was building up in his throat. He couldn't help but notice certain…areas… of her body bounce as she yelled at him. When she went over to untie him, she noticed that he was really nervous. Not the fearful kind of nervous, she knew when people had 'fear nervousness' but this wasn't it. Oh no, he was nervous for an entirely different reason, and she thought she knew what it was. When he was untied, he bowed quickly and began to gather his buckets and fill them with water. After thinking about it for a second, a devilish smirk came across her face. 'Its not like he will turn himself in to get me in trouble,' Azula thought 'maybe I can use what Ty Lee taught me on Ember island to benefit me…yes, I can use him if I can get him on my side,'

"Hey, uh…Aang. Wait up for a moment," she said, thinking of how she would set the snare for him. She quickly sprinted up to where he was and draped an arm over his neck, planning just to keep him still. She accidentally pressed against him though. Aang stood stiff as a statue. 'Is Azula touching me in a non-violent way?' he thought. When she leaned forward from behind him to whisper in his ear, he shivered and stood even more stiffly, if that's possible. "I don't like Ozai being in charge any more than you do, so ill make you a deal." She whispered to him, nipping his ear, accidentally, so gently that it could have been mistaken as a breeze. But oh no, Aang knew that was no breeze. "You take out Ozai for me, I become the fire lady, and I give you…fire bending lessons," she continued.

"Wait, that's an unfair trade!" Aang managed to utter.

"Oh, i'm sure we can figure out…something for me to give you," she said as she walked away from him, trying to be as seductive as possible. In all honesty, she wasn't good at it and it probably wouldn't work on most people. But Aang was just an innocent 12-year-old boy, so it was seductive enough. Aang began sweating profusely. 'I need some fire bending lessons…and I'm sure that I can talk her into calling off the war as the other thing she gives me…yeah, I'll agree!' Aang thought. The way she asked didn't exactly hurt her position though. When Aang opened his mouth though, his words turned to mush. "Uh…I…eh… teech meh?" was all he could manage.

"Uugh, just nod your head if you accept my offer." She asked, her patience running thin. When he nodded, an uncharacteristically wide grin spread across the fire princess. 'Excellent! Phase one of my six-step plan is complete! Next I give him lessons, then I shall seduce him to gain further influence over him, then step 4. He will then kill Zuko, Iroh, and Ozai. I become the fire lady and then the final step. With him trusting me with his life, I shall use him as a pawn to gain world domination!' she thought, zoning out for a little bit. Her train of thought was ended abruptly when Aang spoke up. "Um, Azula… I mean ma'am, I mean princess…err… sensei?" He stuttered.

"Hm? Oh… Just call me Azula," she said, upset that she passed up the chance to be called sensei. Although she wanted to be called sensei, she needed to make the atmosphere as casual as possible. "Ok, meet me here at tomorrow at… sunset," she said.

So the deal was made between the two to meet back at sunset. But little did Azula know, was that her plan would not go quite as she had planned, and that the path she walks now will change her life.

Authors notes: yeah, I hope you liked it. Please note that this is not a one shot, the second chapter will be coming. Just so that you know, my pace has been slowed considerably because im supposed to be grounded off of the computer. (Hehe, im-breaking rules.)
