"Well kids we are almost at the Fire Nation." Hakoda says to his children.

"Now Sokka be polite." Hakoda says as they reach the Fire Nation.

"It's beautiful." Said Katara as her eyes shine with curiosity.

"Not as beautiful as home though?" Hakoda says as the step on the docks.

"Never." Katara say as they begin their walk to the Fire Nation Palace.

When they arrived Hakoda knocked on the door and was greeted by Fire Lady Ursa herself.

"Please come in. It's been such a long time, Hakoda. Too long if you ask me. Please let the maid take your bags." Fire Lady Ursa says as she hands the bags to the maid and hugs Hakoda.

"Well who are these lovely children?" Ursa asked.

"Ursa this is my eldest Sokka and my youngest Katara." Hakoda introduced his children.

"Hi." Sokka says.

"Hello. You have a beautiful home." Katara said smiling.

"Why, thank you. Shall we move in to the dining room? My children are in there and a feast has been prepared in your honor." Ursa said as she escorts them to the dining room.

When they reach the dining room Katara saw a long table of never ending food and tons of chairs. Three people were sitting at the table but stood when they entered.

"This is Uncle Iroh, my son Zuko, and my daughter Azula." Introduced Ursa.

"Hello." Said Azula smirking.

"Hi." Said Zuko.

"Hello. Welcome to the Fire Nation." Greets Uncle.

"Uncle, Zuko, Azula this is Hakoda, Sokk, and Katara."

"Hello." Said Hakoda

"Hi." Said Katara.

Katara realized Sokka was drooling over the food and not greeting these people she nudged him with her elbow.

"Oh, Hey." Sokka said wiping his mouth.

"Well, Shall we?" Ursa said pointing to the table.

"We shall." Hakoda said as his children and he took a seat.

1 hour later

"Would like some more tea, Katara?" Iroh asked smiling.

"No thank you. It was very good though." Katara said yawning.

"Oh, I forgot you must be tired. My family and I shall show you to your rooms." Ursa said as she and her family left the table.

Zuko's POV

"Zuko, would you take Katara to her room?" asked Ursa.

"Fine." I said kind of curious about this Katara girl.

"Katara, this is Zuko he will escort you to your room." Ursa said smiling.

"Okay. Thank you." Katara said as Zuko lead her up a winding staircase.

I was interested in this girl but did not know a way to begin a conversation. But I was glad when she began a conversation. If you could call it that.

"So how old are you?" Katara said trying to break the ice.

"14. You?" I ask wondering her age.

"I'm 12." Katara answered.

"Well here is your room." I said as I walked away.

When I got back to my room I couldn't help but think Katara was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. Her hair flowed down her back like a waterfall in a braid. Her mocha colored skin looked so soft and inviting. Her eyes were the brightest blue. They were like pools of the clearest water you'll ever see. All I could hope was for her to be a companion of mine if only for the remainder of her visit.

Katara's POV

When I entered my new room it was a bright red and orange with a bit of gold. The bed was a light red color with gold and dark red sheets and pillows. The bed was the biggest I've ever seen and the softest. When I lay down I was quickly asleep but my dreams were filled with a certain Fire Prince.

The next day: Zuko's POV

At breakfast I was secretly hoping to see Katara but was disappointed with the sight of no Katara at the table.

"Zuko, before you sit down would you get Katara? She's at the pond Waterbending." Asked Ursa.

"Sure." I answered as I walk to my mother's garden.

When I reach the garden's I watch as she becomes frustrated when trying to manipulate a move. Feeling defeated she moved to a new move that looked like a snake made out of water. I watched as she immediately caught on to it and twirled the snake around her head.

"What's that move you were doing?" I say stepping out of the shadows.

"That's called a water snake." She said as she dropped the water back in to the pond.

"Well, breakfast is ready. So?" I said.

"Okay thanks." She said as she started to walk away.

"Wait, Katara?" I said hoping I wasn't making an idiot of myself.

"Yes?" Katara asked turning around.

"Would you be my companion?" I asked blushing.

"You mean a friend?" she said her face shining like a star.

"Yes." I said still blushing.

"I'd love to be your friend, Prince Zuko." She said beaming.

"Call me Zuko." I said happily.

"Alright, Zuko." She said as we walked back to breakfast in silence. Together as friends.
