Here's another songfic! I like this song and I think this could happen at like the beginning of season 3. It's just a moment between Aang and Katara after he wakes up. He's feeling a little down and Katara sings him a song. Well enjoy!

Hero
The Earth Kingdom had fallen. Azula and her brother Zuko had overrun the town and claimed it for their father, Fire Lord Ozai. The Gaang and the Earth King had nowhere to go. They had hidden in a cave about 200 miles from Ba Sing Se. Katara had had the scare of her life when Aang had fallen from the sky. She would have thought him to be dead, even after she used the Spirit water on him. Her only reassurance that he was alive came from that weak smile he had given her on Appa's head that fateful night. She had been at his side ever since. She didn't allow anyone to touch him or help her. She promised she would protect him with her life. She had been out for a brief walk when Sokka came running up to her.
"What happened? Is Aang alright?" she asked anxiously.
"He's fine, Katara. I just came to tell you that he's finally woken up…" Sokka replied. She sped back toward the cave. When she arrived back to Aang's beside she saw he was sitting up with his head in his hands.
"What's wrong? Are you ok?" she asked. Her voice was full of concern. He looked up at her with red eyes, a sign that he had been crying. She understood what he must be going through. She sat down next to him and held him while he cried.
"Sokka told me what happened…" he whispered. Katara nodded. "It's all of my fault! I should have listened to the Guru! I would have been able to go into the avatar state sooner! If only I weren't so stubborn…"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! It's not your fault, Aang! You shouldn't blame yourself for something you had no control of. None of us saw the attack coming. It's not your fault," Katara said. Aang didn't say anything. She got an idea in her head. She softly started to sing.
There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
Aang lifted his head and listened to her song.
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
"Aang, it's ok to be afraid. I'm sure anyone in your position would be. But don't be ashamed of who you are. It wasn't your fault. I hope that you can understand that. Don't be ashamed of what happened in your past, but look on toward the future."
Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Just hold on
There will be tomorrow
And in time
You'll find the way
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Aang turned and smiled weakly at her. "Thank you, Katara," Katara returned the smile. He got up but before leaving he gave her a little peck on the cheek. He rushed out of the cave leaving Katara to blush alone. Her hand had crept up to the spot and she blushed even more furiously, turning a darker shade of red.
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
