An//: Here's the start or my new story. This is an AU hundreds of years after the war. The rirbending race has once again been re-formed and all four nations live together in harmony. Although I'm still going to use the avatar characters(duh since this is an avatar ff) and keep them as IC as possible. Characters can still bend and I have to make up last names because I have no idea what they are in Avatar. Review and Enjoy
Katara ruffled through her messy cupboard, cursing under her breath at her apparent untidiness. She was looking for her new mini-skirt that she had bought on the weekend to wear on the first day back at school. "God, why do I have so much clothing?" Katara asked herself viciously. Eventually after alot of searching through the masses of clothing scattered into an unorderly fashion she found her skirt. She peeked at the time and saw that she had missed her bus by a minute.
She hastily pulled her short denim mini-skirt up around her waist and clipped her favourite pink lacey bra around her chest. It had thick padding on it to make her boobs look bigger. She threw over a black tank top showing a tiny amount of her cleavage. She was dressing differently this year so that she can stop being a nobody and start being a somebody. Being a somebody meant that she can stop being seen as a dorky nerd and start hanging out with 'cool' people like Ty Lee and Mai, getting a cool boyfriend. Not that she didn't mind going out with Jet who was currently in grade 12 while she was in grade 10. She dumped Jet because he didn't respect her. All he wanted from her was to sleep with her. Katara couldn't handle going out with a guy that didn't like her as a person and who always pretended they did when they didn't. The only interest he had in her was sex. At that time (grade 9) she didn't feel ready to lose her virginity.
She put her glossy black high-heals on so that it made her short body slim look taller than she was. She placed large fake diamond studs into her ears and removed her blue betrothal necklace from her neck. She didn't want the waterbender guys at her school to think she was betrothed. She put cover-up over the acne on her cheeks and forehead and then placed mascara around her bright beautiful blue eyes that sparked gracefully in the sunlight.
She ran downstairs almost tripping on the final stair. Her high-heels were higher than she was used to. She walked to the kitchen where her father was reading the newspaper. He dropped the newspaper so he could see her daughter properly. "Wow Katara you look," Hakoda paused "different" he finished.
"I know dad, I'm takin' on a whole new look. Do you like it?" Katara asked
"I dunno my daughter, you look a bit slutty." Hakoda said
"Really?" Katara gasped, really surprised since her dad had never called her slutty before.
"Perhaps you should change your clothes." Hakoda suggested
"No dad, I've got no time. I've missed my bus so I gotta walk to school." Katara said
"Yea that's true. Your brother left about half an hour ago. Why don't you get changed and then I'll drive you." Hakoda suggested
"No thanks dad!" Katara said quickly. She didn't want the popular people to see her with her dad. She had a reputation to uphold. Katara slung her heavy school bag (fulled with all her books) and walked out of the door, stealing her dads bacon and egg muffin as she walked. "Hey!" Hakoda shouted to the door that Katara had just slammed behind her.
She walked along the streets, grunting at how heavy her bag was. She also felt her feet blistering from the new high-heels she was wearing. (Oh my god, it takes alot out of you to look beautiful). She entered the dreary gates of the place she was to spend the next year of her life (St. Patricia School New York). She walked the deserted corridors, looking for her locker. She found it and punched in her code, opening the locker door. She filled it with all her subjects text books and pulled out her English textbooks. She shut the locker and dropped her books all over the floor (typical Katara... so clumsy). She picked them up with red cheeks, greatly relieved there was no one there to see her display of carelessness. She rushed to room 121, where her English classroom was.
She pulled down the nob of the door but it didn't open. She checked her timetable and saw that she had Ms Sullivan for English. (argh). She was a grumpy strict teacher who always locked the door when class starts so that she can rouse at any of the late stragglers who got locked outside. She knocked on the door twice and waited.
Whenever people knocked they wouldn't get let in straight away because it was 'too much of interruption' quoting Ms Sullivan's words from last year. Eventually the door opened and Ms Sullivan (short stubbly fat teacher who always wears a long black skirt with a black shirt that displays way too much of her huge saggy boobs....terrible fashion sense. Her face is extremely round with long black curly hair...guess what her favourite colour is? She always has bright red cheeks from walking around the corridors and getting more 'exercise' than she was used to). "Miss Biddle, do come in and take a seat." Fat ogre said softly and slyly. Katara walked across the room, fully aware of 25 sets of eyes all directed on her. She sat down at the desk next to her friend Suki's. "What a way to start a new year. Late. Tardiness is something that I do not tolerate in any of my classes. I trust you had a nice sleep in or a nice time plopping on all that make up all over your face?" fat ogre said evily, "do explain to the class why you lack punctuality today." Ms Sullivan ordered.
"well I...uh...I" Katara faced her eyes to her desk, lacking words. Her embarrassment was bright red on her cheeks. Katara didn't know what to say.
"I want 30 write outs saying 'I will always be punctual' to be handed to me next English lesson" Ms Sullivan said
"Yes madam" Katara said, eyes still glued to her desk.
"Anyway as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, if Romeo and Juliet hadn't have committed suicide at the end of Shakespeare's excellent play do you think it would still have the popularity it has today? Do you think we'd even be studying it as part of your English curriculum?" Miss Sullivan asked the class. The rest of the class was a blur. Katara didn't listen to what the foul lady had to teach. It was like a curse in all three years at high school, two of which she had ogre teacher.
"Haha you got owned by the ogre teacher!" Suki teased after class finished on the walk to their lockers.
"Shut up." Katara snapped, punching her bestfriend on the arm.
"Score 1 Ogre lady, score 0 Katara." Suki continued
"If you don't cease and desist with your teasing I will unleash some serious waterbending whoopass on your sorry but. I don't even care if I get suspended."
"Oh Katara, I love getting a rise out of you. You are just too easy and I'm just too good at it. I spill friendly taunts at you like rapid fire." Suki giggled just as they got to Katara's locker. Suki read out the name of the person next to her locker. Azula Grensil. "Who's Azula Grensil?" Suki asked Katara
"I dunno, must be new." Katara answered, shrugging her shoulders.
"Yea I dunno, meet you at our table." Suki said
"Yea okay, meet ya there." Katara replied. Suki walked off down the corridor, through the masses of crowds towards her locker.
Katara walked towards the table where her and her group sat except on her way she saw the most gorgeous boy she had seen in her life. He wore black skinny jeans with a light green top. His eyes were a golden amber colour and his hair was black. Katara felt her eyes fall straight on this guy and she couldn't take them off him. He walked past her turning his head slightly, his golden eyes locking with the deep blue colour of Katara's. Their eye contact didn't last long because Katara shyly faced the other direction.
She walked towards the cafeteria and sat down with her group of friends. Aang was sitting their smiling happily like he always did. Suki was their engaged in a conversation with Sokka. They were laughing happily amongst themselves as usual. Toph sat their looking with a serious face, as per usual. Evergything was normal yet something didn't feel normal. She couldn't get the face of that boy she saw in the corridor out of her head. The thought was trapped and no matter how hard Katara tried (despite the fact she didn't want to) to forget him, it didn't work.
"Hey Katara" Aang greeted cheerfully
""Hey Aang, hows it going?" Katara answered
"Very good thankyou!"
"Have you guys heard about the party that is being thrown at Ty Lee's house it sounds cool We should go. Everyone's invited." Suki asked
"Are you kidding, no way, Parties are for cool people. There's no way they will accept us there." Toph said incredulously
"Yea I agree with Toph" Sokka said. Sokka was in grade 10 because he started school a year late and he was kept down in grade 7. So he was in his sister Katara's grade (damnit).
"Well I think it's an excellent idea!"Katara chimed, "It'll be heaps of fun."
"Yea whatever we should go!" Aang said.
Just then the guy walked in that Katara saw in the corridors walked into the cafeteria with a bunch of the popular grade 12 boys. Katara gasped in surprise, he was just as hot as she had remembered. The boys were laughing happily as they sat down at a table. Ty Lee, Mai and a group of the other popular girls giggled and blushed as the group of senior boys sat at the table next to them. All of them except for one girl were blushing and giggling at the group of guys. She had long black hair that was held up in a bun by a red fire clip. She had the same colour golden eyes that the other boy had. In fact she resembled the boy Katara saw in the corridors at her locker extremely well.
"Hey, does anyone know who that guy is with the black hair and tight skinny jeans sitting at the table next to Ty Lee's group is?" Katara asked
"Oh that is Zuko, he has transferred from Canada to St Patricia's School New York. He is a new guy in grade 12. His sister Azula also transferred here and she is in our grade. She is the one sitting with all the populars." Sokka answered
"Oh they must have been popular at their old school since they're both fitting in so well with the TC (Too cools) crowd here at our school." Kataras
"Yea no surprises there. Azula is beautiful and Zuko...well...he's fiiiiiiine. God he is sizzling hot." Suki drooled.
"Agreed with you there!" Katara agreed, "Oh my God now we have to go to this party. Since they are in the popular group they will definitely be there."
"Yeah!" Suki said excitedly
"Whatever you two can go I'm sure Aang, Sokka and I can think of alot of things better than grinding our bodies with other people and getting smashed." Toph said sarcastically
