Sonic stood there smiling, then Katara came and hugged him, she broke from the hug. "It's great to see you again, where've you been?'' she said "Well I've been around the parts, exploring the world.'' he answered "But seriously, was it necessary to be so competitive?'' she asked "Um, I really can't say.'' he chuckled. Once he arrived, the gang got settled at the house for them on the island. Sonic walked outside and stretched, "It's great to have that cloak off.'' he yawned. "So have I missed anything when I was gone?'' he asked walking back in the house "No, not really.'' Sokka replied. Sonic took a seat on the couch, Katara noticed the metal device on his wrist.

"Hey Sonic. Is that what I think it is?'' she pointed at it "What?'' sonic hid his hand behind his back. "That thing that makes you-'' sonic put his hand over her mouth. "Follow me.'' he whispered and walking to the balcony. The sun was setting, sonic stood at the wooden railing. "Why do you still have it? You'll turn into that monster again if you keep it.'' she told him "Actually I can turn into it when I choose, now Eggman can't press no button that'll force me into it.'' he explained "So why are you so worried?'' Katara asked "I just have a very bad feeling about this thing.'' he sighed "So how's it going with Aang?'' he smirked. Katara immediately blushed, "It's alright, I know you lovebirds are having a great time.'' he laughed walking back in the house.

At night, the gang was asleep, except sonic. He stood on top the house with his arms crossed. He was surveying the device that by just pushing the button he would turn into WereSonic instantly. His ears perked up, he looked out in the distance. Something coming, at a very fast pace. His eyes widened, it was a small missile. He jumped on the beach. He grabbed a rock, he wound up his hand then tossed it at the missile. Successfully it hit and destroyed the missile. He turned around to the house and saw a volley of missiles coming down on the house. One hit and made the house shake. The gang woken from the sudden explosion. Sonic ran inside, "Get up now!'' he yelled "What's happening?'' shouted Toph "We're being attacked! Now get your things and run!'' sonic shouted. The gang got their things and quickly ran outside. "Is everyone here?'' Aang asked. Sonic noticed katara wasn't here. He looked back at the house, a fire broke out and smoke started to rise. "Stay here, I'm going in.'' "The house could fall at any moment! You could get crushed!'' Sokka exclaimed.

"Me yes, but not WereSonic.'' he took in a breath and pressed the button on the device. He transformed into WereSonic. He ran on all fours charging inside the house. Embers of fire were in the air and smoke filled the house. He growled and punched through walls. He heard a scream, sonic ran to the source and found katara laying on the ground with a piece of debris on her leg.. A support column snapped and fell towards her. She screamed and put her arms up, sonic quickly ran and grabbed the column. Katara looked up and saw him. He reached down with his other available hand and grabbed the debris pinning her down. He threw it off her leg, sonic waved his head toward the entrance.

She headed for the entrance and ran out to her friends who immediately hugged her. Unfortunately the house crashed down on the ground leaving a big cloud of smoke to fly up in the air. "Sonic'' katara mumbled. The debris started to shift, a hand sprang out of it. Sonic came crawling out of the debris, he was back in his normal form. He rolled down the pile of debris until halting at the ground. The gang rushed by his side, "We better get out of here.'' Sokka said. A few hours had passed, the gang was flying across a grassland. Sonic was awake, but still a little injured. "Why didn't you tell us you could still transform into that thing!'' Sokka threw his arms in the air "You'd probably wouldn't want me with you guys anyway, but you don't need to worry.'' sonic said "How will we know if you just turn into that monster and just attack us for no reason, hmm?'' Sokka crossed his arms "Well, Eggman can't control it anymore, I can press this button and I'll turn into WereSonic, so there's nothing to worry about.'' sonic laid back relaxing. "You hear something?'' asked Aang looking at them "Hear what?'' Toph asked. Just then a fireball whisked past Appa. "What was that?'' yelled Sokka. Sonic looked down at the ground, there were three rows of fire nation tanks chasing them.

"I'll handle this.'' Sonic jumped off Appa. He stuck his hands out, the seven emeralds appeared and he transformed into Super Sonic. He dived down in front of the tanks, he put up a bubble blocking some fireballs. Sonic fired a barrage of energy beams at the tanks blowing them up. Sonic dashed straight at a tank and kicked it in the air, he teleported above it and kicked both his feet into it sending it smashing into another tank. Sonic was hit by a fireball from behind, two more rows of tanks arrived. Sonic saw up in the air behind him two fire nation zeppelins. Sonic headed for the tanks first, he smashed right on top of one.

Sonic fired a beam of energy blowing one up in the sky. Sonic flew after it and sent a powerful kick at it throwing the tank into one of the zeppelins. Sonic teleported back in front of the tanks which immediately fired a barrage of fire blasts at him. He put one hand up creating a bubble, blocking the fireballs. From one of the zeppelins it dropped a series of bombs down on him. Sonic put his other hand up and covered up the other half. He started to sweat, he gritted his teeth.

He couldn't hold it off any longer. Sonic quickly dropped one of the shields and went behind the tanks. His hands glowed gold, the tanks lifted off the ground, he swung his hand at one of the zeppelins. The tanks bolted through the giant airship causing fires to break out. Some of the tanks ripped through the ship's hull and came out of the top. A giant fire sprang from the top of the zeppelin, it started to descend down to the ground. Finally a loud crash came when it impacted the ground. Sonic looked behind him to see the other zeppelin chasing Appa. Sonic took off into the air after it. Firebenders on the platforms that stuck out from the ship let out a series of fireballs at Appa. Aang maneuvered Appa past them, but one scraped across Appa's side causing him to groan and roar. He started to descend slowly, then three more fireballs came at them. Sonic quickly came in the way and put up a shield, blocking the fireballs.

"Get Appa down to safety, I got this!'' sonic yelled. Appa flew down lower and lower until crashing through a group of trees and skidding to a halt. Both of Sonic's palms glowed bright gold. He let out a powerful beam of light at the zeppelin from the nose of the ship out from the other end. It started falling nose first, problem is it was heading for the gang! The gang gasped when they saw the giant airship heading down at them. Sonic grabbed the front of it, the size was too large but he didn't give up. His whole body glowed bright, the ship started going slower. The gang luckily got Appa to start walking out of the way.

Sonic saw that he was nearing the ground. Finally the ship crashed through the forest, front first. The other half snapped and the other half was flung across the air and landed in another part of the forest. The front half, followed by a huge cloud of dust stopped. Aang and the others quickly ran to the crash site. They looked at the huge hunk of metal that lay in the forest. Then a chunk of metal broke open. Out came walking sonic in his normal blue form, covered with dirt, bruises, and scars he fell to the ground unconscious.

The gang were flying over a forest, the night blanketed across the sky. Sonic was on Appa, still recovering from the attack. "Whoa, what happened?'' sonic sat up with his hand on his head. "You've been out for hours, you alright?'' katara said "Yeah I'm okay, where are we?'' replied sonic "Where trying to look for a place to land.'' Aang said from Appa's head. Sonic slowly rose to his feet, he looked into the forest and saw a clearing. "Go there!'' sonic pointed. Aang noticed the clearing, he flew over it, there was an inn. Aang set Appa behind the building. "Convenient of this being here.'' sonic said hopping off Appa. The gang went inside, they got their rooms. "See you guys in the morning.'' Aang said walking upstairs of the inn. It was rather large and difficult to find his room. Aang stopped in front of his door and opened it. Aang let out a short gasp, katara was in the room. "Um, hi.'' she said "Looks like they gave us the same room.'' Aang slightly blushed and closed the door. "It's alright.'' she replied blushing more.

Aang had his shirt off, unpacking his things. He looked over at katara, who was looking out the window, not saying a word. "Is there something wrong?'' he asked standing up. A short silence rolled over, "I'm just worried.'' she spoke up "About what?'' asked Aang "We've been being attacked so many times, nearly dying each time, I don't think I can handle it.'' she explained "What do you mean?'' Aang said confused "Aang, we both know if something bad happens to one of us the other will just be broken for good.'' she turned looking at him. "Uh katara.'' he said "I mean, I know we handled things in the past easy but now it's just different.'' she walked around the room.

"Katara'' Aang said again "Something bad is bound to happen, I just can't deal with you being hurt.'' she stopped walking. Aang sighed and walked towards her. "The fact is that, I can't hmm!'' she stopped when Aang pressed his lips against hers. She shut her eyes and returned the kiss, their tongues in an eternal dance. They both fell on the bed, with katara on top. Outside the window, sonic was walking across the roof whistling, he took one look in the room and continued walking. Then sonic stopped whistling and ran back to the window. "Wow, where'd they learn to kiss like that?''. Katara broke from the kissing and rolled next to Aang. "Wow.'' they both said at the same time. "About time.'' sonic said.

A large dark figure came from behind sonic. He grabbed him by the throat, the figure tossed him down on the ground. Sonic did a back flip as the figure nearly landed on him. "Who do you think you are!?'' sonic exclaimed. The figure stepped into the moonlight. Sonic gasped, "No way.'' It was WereSonic…
