Hey y'all, I'd like to say thank you for reading! Seriously, I've read a ba-jillion stories on this site and a lot of the stories have been written major awesome-like. I don't know if I've written mine like that but, I try :). Well, on with the show! (btw, right now it has been about 10 months since the end of the war)

Three months past and so did the wedding.

Katara nearly cried when Sokka had said that Zuko would be taking Aang's place as best man. She of course was the brides maid.

The wedding went off perfectly and Sokka and Suki left that day on their honeymoon. They had chosen a small earth kingdom island near kyoshi. They returned just after a week.

Katara had been spending her time rereading all the scrolls that Aang had sent and had sent him quite a few.

He said that they had just hit a snag and were not leaving for a while.

Katara's dad had come up for the wedding 2 weeks ago and decided to stick around for a while. He came up to Katara's room one night to speak with her.

"Katara. I have to ask you something."

"huh? Oh, dad, its you. Sure, come in." Katara said putting away one of Aang's scrolls.

Her father came in and sat down and said, "I'm leaving tomorrow. To go back home. I want you to come with me. Now before you start, I want to say that it's been a while since you were home and everyone wants to see you again. Especially gran-gran."

Katara stared at him blankly. Her mind was racing though. Home? After so long? What will have changed? "what about Aang?"

"well, he is going to be gone a while. I think it would be best if you would spend your time with your family and not moping around here."

Katara felt like crying again. To many feelings were rushing through her and it was very hard on choosing just one of them to show.

"I'll let you think about it. Good night Katara." he could very well se the confusion in her eyes as he took his leave.

The next day, Hakoda and Bato were about to set off when Katara came running up to their ships calling for them to wait for her.

"I see you've decided to join us." Hakoda said helping her up the ramp.

"like you said, Aang wont be back for a while. And I really miss everyone back home." she still felt crummy watching the shore vanish on the horizon.

She had sent a letter to Aang telling him that she was returning home. She prayed that he got it.

oOoOoOo

A month later and it was as if Katara had never left home.

Aang awoke to the sounds of firing cannons. He jumped out of bed and threw on his shoes and shirt and ran to the battlements.

They had discussed it and had decided that their current position was no longer safe. They were being forced to move to a fort not to far away.

Everyone was jumping into the caterpillar like machines that Teo's dad had invented. Suddenly the firing stopped.

"what's wrong? Why have they stopped?" a soldier asked.

"lets take this opportunity to escape! Quickly!" shouted the commander. They all went back to what they had been doing.

Little did they know that a rouge had just slipped in the building and was placing 2 bombs on the top and ground floor of the 4 story fortress.

"Aang! Aang! Help! Ni-sue is still inside! He's stuck in a collapsed door frame! He's on the third floor. You're the only one who can help him!" Ta-hagi said pulling Aang back towards the building.

Aang ran inside and caught a glimpse of a man wearing red and black in one of the rooms on the ground floor but continued running.

"hey! that's a rouge from the resistance! He's probably placed bombs in the fort! Evacuate immediately!" shouted the commander. The man was caught and Ta-hagi was pulled away from the building.

Everyone left rushed out but Aang and Ni-sue were nowhere to be seen.

There was a low rumbling noise and all grew quiet. They moved as far away from the building as possible.

Aang had freed Ni-sue and they were on the second floor when it happened. The bomb on the Top floor went off causing the top 2 and a half floors to burst into flame.

"hurry there could be more!" Aang shouted. They were approaching the stairs when a sharp pole fell right in front of Ni-sue. They were parts of the piping. Another more sharper one fell and caught Aang by his shirt grazing his side.

"Aang!" Ni-sue shouted.

"I got it! Just go!" Aang shouted pulling at the fabric. Ni-sue nodded and ran away. Aang pulled at the fabric and had it just about free when he heard a second rumbling sound. A second later his world exploded into Flame and darkness…

"Katara! A new letter just got in for you! It's from Aang I think!" shouted Gran-gran to Katara from the house/igloo.

Katara jumped up from her work outside repairing a wall and ran to the front of the Igloo and took the letter from Gran-gran.

Sokka and Suki came up as Katara started to open the seal.

"Yay! A new letter from Aang! Read it out loud!" Sokka said as Hakoda Approached them.

Katara ignored her brother and read it to herself.

To: Katara and friends.

This is commander Hikada. There has been an accident. A rouge placed 2 bomb's in our fort. Unfortunately, Avatar Aang was inside the building when they went off.

We believe he is dead. We cannot find his body anywhere. We believe it was destroyed in the explosion. We are sorry for your loss.

Signed: Commander Hikada.

Katara hardly dared to believe her eye's. she felt reality sink in and her eyes started to water. She dropped the scroll and Sokka said "oops, dropped it. I guess I'll read it out loud. Katara? Are you ok?"

Katara's face was pale. Tears were falling freely from her eyes. She sobbed hysterically, "no. no. no. Aang. No. not Aang. No." she sank to her knee's and cried out loud.

"oh no." Sokka said reading the letter. Suki read it at the same time as Sokka and they both started to tear up. "no. Aang." Sokka said holding Suki closer to him.

Kana knelt down to Katara and tried to calm her down.

Sokka and Suki were crying hard now and Hakoda stood there feeling sad and sorry for his children.

Katara pushed Kana away and ran away from them all. She made a ramp and did a skiing like motion off of it and landed on the other side of the wall.

She pushed up snow and ice and made the sea hiss and churn with her anger and sadness.

She ran to where the water met the ice edge in a mini-cliff and screamed loudly. She said not any words for several seconds then screamed "you said you wouldn't die! You promised! You said you would come back to me!… You lied Aang! You fucking lied!"

She fell to her knee's again and screamed again. She sobbed more and more. "you lied to me Aang. You broke your promise… your dead." she said in little more than a whisper before collapsing in exhaustion.

Sorry for its shortness but I needed a cut-off. Oh and for anyone who's confused about where Toph is- I don't know either. She could be with Katara or she could be with her parents or she could be off on her own. You guys tell me which one you want and I'll put a chapter or at least a part in for her.

I'm never comfortable killing off a main character, especially the one that the show's all about but it needed to be done to set some things in place. I wont tell you if he's dead or not. Sorry. :P you guy's are intelligent, you can figure it out I'm positive.
