~it's the first day of elements high school~

Aang looked up at the two-story building. He gulped just before he stepped through the glass doors into the freshman life. He noticed that Katara, Sokka, Toph, Suki, Ty Lee, Haru, Azula, Mai, Zuko, and Teo. Katara spotted him and nodded towards the back door so that the others wouldn't see him. They'd planned last night to surprise everyone by having Aang come up behind everyone else.

When he was within earshot he heard Toph groan, "When's that surprise coming? I don't wanna sit here forever."

"Yeah, I've got cheerleading tryouts in, like, 10 minutes." Ty Lee said.

"I've got a Goth Club meeting with June in 5." Mai said in her monotone.

"Be patient." Katara said and eyed Aang.

"Man, first day of high school, only been here for a minute and already I'm exhausted." Aang said over everyone's arguing voices.

A chorus of "AANG!" and a group hug followed his comment.

"Oh my god, when did you get here?" Suki squealed.

"Yesterday. This was a surprise for us too." Katara said and rested her head on Aang's shoulder.

"And now the power duo is reunited, how cute."

After chatting with the others for a bit, Aang left with Katara to go get their schedules.

"This year is so different than last year."

"Well, I gotta admit, it's interesting to watch you and Zuko's dad fight."

"Hey! It was hard! I had to go Avatar State on him."

"I know, I know!"

"But I liked what happened after the fight."

Katara smiled and stepped forward.

"Katara," Master Paku greeted, "how nice to see you here at Elements High, Aang, nice to see you as well." I nodded a hello to him. "Here's your schedule. I'll be seeing you both third period."

"Cool." Katara and I said in unison.

"Yeah, well, see you both later."

"Bye!"

"So what are your classes?" I asked.

"1. Four Nations History, 2. Math, 3. Waterbending, 4. Art, 5. Creative Writing, Lunch B, 6. Science of the Elements, and 7. Combat."

"I have, in this order, Airbending, Science of the Elements, Waterbending, Earthbending, Creative Writing, Lunch B, Four Nations History, and Combat."

"Awww, we have three classes together and lunch. Hey! Why don't you have Math?"

"I did those classes in middle school."

"Unfair." she mumbled.

"Come on. Let's go get our lockers."

After waiting in another line, the couple visited their lockers and found that they were right next to each other.

"Wow, weird huh?"

"Yeah." Aang said.

"Long time no see! I absolutely missed you!" Meng smiled, she ran over to Aang and squeezed him tight.

"Why are you hugging my boyfriend Meng?" Katara asked.

"Your boyfriend! In your dreams!"

"Girls, girls! Stop this! No need to fight." Aang said trying his best to soothe the two angry rivals.

"Why shouldn't I fight this ugly pain? She's done nothing but put you through misery!" Meng yelled. Out of nowhere, she pulled a knife from her shirt and lunged at Katara.

Katara let out a scream and fell back, watching as the feisty Meng drew closer.
