Author's Note: Thank you all! I lurv the reviews!

Neon Starz- Thank you! I'm always excited to hear people enjoy my writing. It's kind of surprising because I've never really considered myself the writer type, but it's fun, and I appreciate it so much!

MDI- Thank you. Conversions are hard. Especially when you want to keep it in tune with the real show. Most people don't go for these kinds of things, I know, but I'm glad you enjoy this!

Aangsfan- OMG, I'M SO SORRY! I knew you had a "live with us" fan fiction, too. I thought about it, but it never went through my head that I would be stealing your idea! I'm sooo sorry! I completely didn't mean to! Thank you sooo much for dedicating your chapter to me! :D That's a first! I was sooo excited when I saw that. For all these months I've still been checking for an update on Paralyzed everyday (still am) and when I saw that, I screamed. It was a chapter of AWESOMENESS! Btw, your email didn't show up in your comment. I noticed it didn't show up in the chapter, either. KEEP UP WITH PARALYZED!

Aangsgirl- Yup, my Kataang muse wouldn't allow me to start where it does in the show. XD

Spirit's Fire- Thank you very much! I'm glad you feel that way! Also, thanks for the luck!

avatar209- Thank you! I'm glad you se my point. Kataang is awesome and real world Avatar is awesome. I usually don't write these kinds of stories but I'm glad you all enjoy it!

BlueAura11- Don't commit suicide for this! D: You are my best reviewer! I am feeding your addiction. Thank you so much! XD

crazyzukofangirl1280- Mwahaha! Zhao butt whopping! XD

Relks the Disturbed- Yeah, living in an alley calls more a much more epic tale, and more Kataanginess! XD YAY!

Kumai290- YAY! EPIC WIN!! XD Noo! Don't hunt me down! I'll give you what you want! D: It's down there! READ IT AND BE HAPPY! :D Nooo! Aangy! He has a big sign on his back that says "HUGGLE HERE" It's to irresistible!

Pepipanda- Ahh, stoopid book that told me it was on his right eye. That store owes me, like, six dollars! Or maybe I read it wrong, who knows. Thanks for the tip, though. That was pretty dumb of me. I usually don't mess those types of things up. :( The back stories will be as fun to read as they will be to write! I know what Zuko's will be, but I'm still working on Aang's. I kinda ear played last chapter with what Aang was saying. I don't even know what happened! You guys are as clueless as me. Maybe I shouldn't have told you that... Prepare for a VERY interesting Suki!

avatarang- you think its amazing! :D I'm flattered!

avatargirl92208- I hope I'm not! C'mon people, review! Before I get discouraged and uninspired! A lot of people agree that this is a "pure epic win". I hope so! I'm new at writing, I seriously didn't expect this much attention! KEEP IT UP OR I WILL STOP!

Whoo! I lurv comments. Keep it up, y'all!


The Wrestlers of Kyoshi High

Aang woke up to the feeling of the warm sun reflecting off his face. He could feel softness underneath him, a huge contrast to the cold, hard concrete he usually slept on in the alley. He knew this feeling. It wasn't real. It was a memory. He was remembering the time where he had a soft, comfortable bed. When he had a home, a life, a family. The wonderful feeling would fade away after awhile, leaving Aang cold, sore, and miserable.

But the feeling didn't go away. It stayed with him and gave him an odd sense of security. He felt he didn't have to worry about the occasional mugger or other types of criminals that roamed around and often targeted him. He felt warm, happy, safe. Aang was afraid to wake up and realize that it was all an illusion.

Still, he slowly opened his somewhat heavy eyes. What he saw shocked him. I mean, how would you feel if you woke up finding that your illusion is real?

Aang sat up in his comfortable and very fluffy silk bed, adorned with fine patterns, ribbons, and fresh sheets. The whole room was completely white, with the white walls, a white, fluffy carpet, white curtains, a white bed. The only thing that wasn't white was the dressing drawer, which was made up of awesome shiny wood. The way the sun reflected off the walls gave the room the appearance it was glowing.

"Am I in heaven?" Aang asked himself incredously. Aw, great. Did one of those street thugs murder me in my sleep?

At that moment, Katara entered the room with a tray of food and a warm smile.

Yup, I am definitely in heaven. There is an angel in this room.

Katara walked up to Aang's bed and lay the tray on his lap.

"Mornin' sleepy head!" Katara giggled. "I thought I heard someone moving around in here."

Aang was slightly confused for a second, but then all of last night's memories came flooding into his head. Aang's eyes widened slightly.

"Katara! Is this your house?" Aang asked tentatively.

"Of course it is. You fell asleep last night in that alley. Sokka and I carried you back to our house and told our dad your story."

Aang was about to cut in before Katara added-

"You told us we could! Remember, Last night? You said 'fine'. So there!"

Aang shut his mouth and pouted.

"After that," Katara continued. "We brought you in here. It had rained and plus your clothes seriously needed a wash so we changed you into more comfortable night clothes."

Aang looked down and confirmed, yes, he was wearing night clothes. Very comfortable ones, too. They looked like they came from a hospital. Aang blushed as he thought, I wonder who changed me into these.

"You've been asleep all night." Katara cut through the silence. "It is now Saturday afternoon. Here, you must be hungry."

Katara picked up a bowl of oatmeal and started subconsciously mouth feeding Aang. Aang was looking at her strangely thoughout the whole process and she wondered why. After a while she realized what she was doing. She jumped up quickly and nervously stuffed the bowl and spoon into Aang's arms.

"Oh! Okay, well, you can, um... finish the, uhm... the...oatmeal. I'll just be...out here! Yeah, just...call me if you need anything." Katara blushed wildly before rushing out of the room.

Aang stared at her through the whole process and continued eating when she left. He would've thought more of the subject if it hadn't been for the fact that lunch at school has been his only proper meal for eight years now...


Once Aang assured everybody he was completely fine, Aang changed back into his regular, now much cleaner, clothes and headed outside so Katara and Sokka could introduce him to the neighborhood.

"So we have this beach in the next town, but it's really close to our house and it's really awesome and we go there all the time, it's so nice there and there is barely anybody there and the water is reeally clear and the sand is always so warm and when the weather is nice-" Katara was telling Aang.

"Katara! Relax! I think he gets it!" Sokka complained.

"A beach? Ohh, can we go there!" Aang begged. "I haven't been to a beach in eight years!"

Katara took one look at Aang's pitiful little puppy dog face and completely melted.

"C'mon, Sokka, lets just go to the beach, can't we?" Katara pleaded and matched Aang's face with her puppy dog pout.

Sokka wasn't really affected by it, but he knew he was outnumbered.

"Fine." he replied grudgingly.

Aang and Katara cheered and ran ahead while Sokka stayed sulking behind.

Once they got to the beach Aang immediately started stripping down to his underwear.

Oh. My. God.

Katara's whole entire face turned crimson red. She knew she should look away or something but she couldn't move. She found herself staring.

As Aang dived into the water Sokka finally caught up, just in time to see Aang shoot straight into the air.

"COLD!" he screamed before falling back in.

Katara looked sideways to Sokka as he made a swirling hand motion by his head, signaling he thought Aang was crazy.

A few moments later Aang came back up for air. He smiled to Katara and shouted, "Watch this!"

Katara watched intently as Aang did multiple tricks in the water. She started cheering him on and waving her hands in the air.

She thought she noticed something moving behind him but just thought of it as another swimmer. Besides, she couldn't take her eyes off of Aang.

Aang decided to take a break from all his tricks and rested in the water. Then he spun around in the water and screamed.

Katara nearly jumped ten feet high when she heard him. She looked to what was behind him and saw a small fin circling him.

Oh my God. Is that...is that a shark?

"Aang!!" Katara screamed.

Faster than you could ever imagine, Aang darted to shore, paddling and kicking to the speed of light.

In no time, he dived straight onto shore, knocking into Katara and Sokka.

They all fell to the ground as the shark retreated into the water.

Aang fell right on top of Sokka and Katara. Katara blushed slightly, but Sokka pushed Aang off roughly and stood up.

"That was the stupidest move ever!" Sokka shouted as Aang shyly put his clothes back on.

"How was I supposed to know that a shark was supposed to be in there?" Aang defended.

"Not you, Katara! Why didn't you tell him you saw a shark?" Sokka accused.

"ME!?" Katara shouted. "I didn't see it! Why didn't you tell him!?" Katara fumed back.

"I wasn't watching! He's not my boyfriend!" Sokka retorted.

Katara was taken aback. "You think he's my boyfriend?" she yelled, blushing slightly.

A fight ensued. It was broken up, however, when they caught sight of Hakoda rushing down to the beach.

"Oh, thank God! Your okay!" he shouted, giving everybody a big hug. "I saw it in the newspaper today! Right after you left! The beach is said to be shark infested!"

Sokka and Katara turned to look at Aang, who blushed slightly and gave an awkward smile.

"Oh, we know." Sokka replied.

Hakoda looked at him quizzically before continuing. "Maybe you guys should just introduce Aang to some people around town."

Everyone nodded. And so it went on, Katara and Sokka introduced Aang to everyone. Aang's friendliness once again shone through. Pretty much every girl in the neighborhood completely fell in love with him. Particularly their neighbor, Koko. She seemed to enjoy him a LOT.

Katara felt a pang of jealously. Why am I jealous? She asked herself. Why should I care?

The next day at school Aang seemed a little different. Katara noticed Aang was showing off slightly in front of his new "fan girls."

Katara didn't even see him at lunch.

Katara was waiting alone at her table, watching Aang at another table do some marble tricks for the girls. They were cheering him on, attracting new bystanders by the second.

Katara sighed. Where is Sokka?

As if on cue, Sokka entered the cafeteria, followed by a bunch of girls.

The girls, to say the least, looked rather strange.

They were wearing gold headpieces, strange green dresses that looked somewhat army-like, and on their faces, they wore make-up that distinctly reminded Katara of war paint.

Sokka seemed to be yelling at the girls, who wore very smug expressions, before storming of into Katara's direction.

When he reached the table, he sat down stiffly, looking very sour.

"Sooo...?" Katara questioned.

Sokka looked up, his sour expression still evident, but with a hint of confusion.

"Who are they?" Katara continued, as if it was obvious.

Sokka looked down at the table.

"No one." he mumbled. "Just some stupid girls who think they are tough. Especially their captain, that Suki girl."

"Hem-hem!" Katara said, agitated. "I'm not sure if you've noticed, but... I'M A GIRL."

Sokka looked up. "Exactly, you would never be able to beat me in a sport."

"Ugh!" Katara was insulted. "I could, too! Girls can play sports."

"Of course." Sokka said casually. "They just can't play sports well."

Katara exploded. "YES THEY CAN! THOSE GIRLS PROBABLY WERE TOUGH! THEY COULD BEAT YOU ANY DAY! ...AND SO CAN I!" she added.

Sokka looked down and mumbled something incoherently.

"Oh, what was that?" Katara asked, a smile forming on her lips.

"Nuthin'..." Sokka mumbled.

"Oh, but I do believe it was something, please speak up, my dear." Katara said in a mock proper voice.

"I said.." Sokka started off strong but then hindered off.

"A little louder, please..." Katara teased.

"I SAID THEY DID BEAT ME IN A SPORT!" Sokka shouted.

Katara tried to suppress a giggle. "Oh no, say it isn't so! Sokka the captain and the most skilled player on the hockey team got beaten by a bunch of weak defenseless girls!?" Katara said sarcastically.

"Well, it wasn't in hockey!" Sokka defended. "It was wrestling! Apparently some girls wanted to start their own team. They thought girls to do anything guys could."

"Well they were right!" Katara laughed.

"No they weren't!" Sokka shouted.

"Sokka, get over it. They beat you. They. Were. Better." Katara said slowly for him.

Sokka's expression turned back to sour. He sat up, and turned to leave the cafeteria, leaving Katara to think:

Wow, he left without eating. That's a first.


Zuko got to his locker. It was the finally free period. Now he could finally relax and think about the rumor that has been nagging him all day.

Has that little pathetic kid with the arrows become extremely popular?

Zuko pondered over it for a moment.

Yup, it's probably true. I mean, come on! He's strong, talented, smart, he has good looks for the ladies, anything a guy would want. Plus, everything I don't have.

Zuko sighed. How come it was that everyone and everything is better than him?

He had called it. Zuko knew from the beginning that the kid would turn into one of those snobs that would constantly try to show him up. That's why Zuko chose him, out of all the new kids, to be his anger reliever for the year.

Zuko had heard plenty times before by the student councillor that the way he was acting was not the way to go, but who cares?

Zuko needed to physically hurt someone to feel for at least one moment, their life was worse than his. It gave him that moment of relief, the moment he needed.

But then that Aang kid came and screwed everything up.

How could Zuko take his anger out on him if hewas the one getting beaten. That day they were at the pool, Zuko never expected everything to blow up on him like that, he just ran away.

Like a coward... He scoffed at himself.

Zuko was pulled from his thoughts when a large crowd came towards him.

Oh no, not him. Not now...

"Hey Scarface."

His blood chilled. This was definitely a different side of Aang.

"What do you want?" Zuko tried to sound as intimidated as possible in front of Aang and his "followers".

"A rematch." Aang said casually.

Zuko looked confused. A rematch? But he won last time...I ran away...

"I DARED HIM TO DO IT!"

Zuko heard someone scream from the crowd. Probably that obnoxious Koko girl...

Zuko's blood started to boil. He had some serious anger issues. He just wants to show me up in front of a crowd...of girls.

"Fine, when?"

"Whenever your ready, Scarface." Aang replied.

Zuko closed his eyes. Why does everybody feel the need to call me that?

His eyes shot open, causing the crowd to wince slightly. "Fine! Next Friday, six o'clock. By the beach." Zuko smirked.

"The beach?" Aang sounded horrified. "But it's shark infested!"

"The water is." Zuko pointed out. "But not the land. Are you to baby to go there?"

Aang regained his composure. "No, not at all. Then it's a deal. See you then."

With a few whoops from Aang's fan girls, the crowd finally dispersed.

Zuko sighed. What the heck was I thinking...?


Sokka stood in front of the door. He inhaled deeply. Okay you can do this...

He put his fingers on the doorknob. They rested there for a few moments, before he wrenched hs hand away as if it was on fire.

Okay...No. You can't.

Sokka had been doing that for about fifteen minutes now, unable to make up his mind.

Finally, he took the doorknob in his whole hand, and twisted it open. He flew inside the room at lightning speed.

Sokka paused at the doorway, panting slightly from his rash decision. He looked up to see about ten girls in weird costumes practicing wrestling.

In the very front was...

"Suki..." Sokka snorted. "So we meet again."

Suki turned to face him. "Looks like." she laughed. "What are you doing here?"

Sokka looked up at them and blushed. His head fell.

"You guys beat me in a fight, today." he admitted.

"Way to state the obvious." Suki commented.

Sokka glared at her before he continued. "Please, I've never seen anything like that before."

He kneeled down. "Please, show me how to fight. It could come in handy for hockey."

All the girls were silent.

"Well, we normally wouldn't teach a boy." Suki spoke. "But since you were so pathetic it could make someone cry, we'll show you some moves."

Sokka got up to meet Suki face to face. "I'm not sure if I should say thank you to that."


Katara doodled in class on the next Friday. She had been having a horrible time lately. Sokkawas never there because he was off training to be a wrestler. He must've been really desperate. He had to wear the same attire as the girls while training.

It was rather disturbing.

He would come home some days while it was still on, and take naps in it.

It's actually pretty comfortable...Katara recalled him saying.

And then there was Aang...

Aang...

It tore Katara's heart when she thought of him.

They had never been so close, and yet so far apart.

Aangstill lived in the same house as them, but they barely talked to him. He was always out with his new friends. Didn't he realize Katara wanted to talk to him, too?

Katara looked down at her doodle and gasped.

Without thinking, she had drawn a picture of Aang.

Tears filmed her eyes, but she blinked them back.

Not in school... she thought to herself.

The bell rang. School was over.

As everyone got up, Katara slammed her fist on her desk and squeezed her eyes tight together.

I'm talking to Aang today. I'm getting him back. she vowed.


Aang was at his locker. He inhaled deeply. Today's the big day...

Aang honestly didn't even know what had gotten into him. He guessed he just wasn't used to getting attention and now he was popular!

But how am I supposed to beat Zuko? Aang asked himself. Last time, Katara and Sokka helped me out. If they hadn't been there, I probably would've died.

"Hey Aang."

Aang nearly jumped into the sky.

He turned around to face Katara.

"Hey, Katara. What's up?"

Aang could see in Katara's eyes that she was hurt. Why shouldn't she be? I've been so rude to her, lately.

"Aang, we should hang out today." Katara pleaded.

Aang's heart broke. "Today?" Aang asked. "I'm soo sorry! I can't! I'm fighting Zuko at the beach at six!"

Katara's eyes bulged. "You WHAT!?"

"I'm sorry Katara, but I'm getting there a bit early to sit in the water. The girls wanted to see me do it.-"

"NO, YOUR NOT SORRY!" Katara screamed. "BUT YOU WILL BE SORRY WHEN YOU GET KILLED!"

Aang was shocked. "Katara I have to-"

"NO, YOU DON'T HAVE TO, YOU WANT TO!"

"Well maybe, but the girls are expecting me to-"

"I DON'T CARE! I CAN'T JUST LET YOU DO THIS!"

"Yes you can! I'm going now!"

"NO, YOUR-"

Before Katara could finish, Aang went darting out the door to the beach's direction.

Katara watched incredulously as he ran. Without second thought, she dashed the opposite way. Please Sokka, for once I hope you are at wrestling practice. I need you!


Two hours later, Aang sat in the water pretty far out, with no sign of any sharks.

The girls sat impatiently at shore, before Koko got up and shouted:

"C'mon Aangy, we're getting bored!"

"I know, I know." Aang responded. "They aren't here yet, maybe if I go a little farther out..."
"That's what you said last time! Really, I have to go!" All the girls started getting up.

"No, don't go!" Aang shouted. "I'm sure they'll come soon! Besides, it's not even six yet!"

"Yeah, but I wasn't going to stay that long anyway. Good luck, Aangy!" And with that, the girls were off.

Aang sank half his face into the water to hide his shameful blush.

What did I get myself into? I don't want to do this! I only wanted to brag. Now look at the mess I'm in...

"HEY, YOU!" Aang heard a familiar shout from the shore.

His head shot out of the water. "KATARA!" Aang yelled back and waved.

"GET OUT OF THE WATER, PLEASE!" Katara begged.

"I'm sorry, Katara." Aang apologized. "I've been acting like a big jerk lately."

Katara paused for a moment. "THEN GET OUT OF THE WATER YOU BIG JERK!"

Aang laughed. "COMING!"

He started swimming to shore. He noticed Katara's eyes widening and he stopped. "What...?"

"HURRY!" Katara screamed.

Aang looked behind him and saw a fin pop out of the water. Then two, then three. Five fins were circling around him.

Oh sure, now they come.

All of a sudden, a shark flew out of the water. It was gigantic and it's jaws held what seemed like hundreds of teeth.

Aang screamed. Why are they attacking me?Then he realized the cut he had received when Zuko had beat him up on the first day was bleeding. When he had put his head halfway in the water out of shame, some blood flowed into the ocean, attracting the sharks.

Aang'seyes widened as the shark dove right toward him. He swam away as fast as he could and narrowly dodged it. Shark after shark came after him, some coming really close to killing him.

Aang had been successful in punching some of their noses. All but two remained.

All three remaining sharks darted to Aang at the same time. Aang punched two of their noses and they swam off, but one hit him hard in the back and he was knocked under the water.

At that moment, a giant wave came, making Aang tumble closer to shore. The wave caught him by surprise and he gasped, water filling his lungs.

He gasped and choked, but he was underwater and he couldn't breathe.

Aang struggled to resurface, but he couldn't tell which way was up and which was down. And where was the shark? Aang writhed under water, clasping his chest.

He kept trying to gasp for air, swallowing more water.

His eyes burned and his head was thumping. His chest felt like it would explode.

Those were Aang's last thoughts before he drifted into unconsciousness.


Something isn't right. Why isn't Aang resurfacing? Katara was pondering to herself. She saw the shark float above the water. Moments later, Aang resurfaced.

Katara's eyes widened. He's unconscious!

Immediately Katara jumped into the water, scurrying to get to Aang as fast as she could.

The shark had also spotted Aang, now it became a race. Katara's clothes were weighing her down, particularly since she wore a heavy coat and jeans.

Finally, Katara grabbed hold of Aang. She wrapped her arms around him just as the shark appeared next to him.

Now the shark went above the surface and opened it's jaws. Katara screamed as she saw all the teeth.

Instinctively, she punched it extremely hard right on its nose. The shark fell back before receding into the ocean.

Katara sighed of relief before hurrying Aang to shore.

They got caught under a big wave on their way and ended up being washed up on top of a giant rock.

Katara layed Aang down.

"C'mon Aang, wake up!" she begged.

He didn't move a muscle. Katara moved her hand up to his chest.

Her heart nearly stopped. No breathing.

Katara made a rash decision. This is where health class comes in handy...

Immediately, she plugged Aang's nose and opened his mouth. She stared down at him for a moment, kind of nervous about what she was going to do, before plunging down and blowing air into his mouth.

CPR...Wow, I can't believe I'm doing this...

Katara did this a couple times until finally, Aang started coughing up water. His eyes slowly opened...

"AANG!" Katara screamed, throwing her arms around the boy.

She felt him tense under her bone-crushing hug, but then he relaxed, giving into it.

Tears streamed out of Katara's face.

"I thought I lost you for a minute..."

"I'm sorry, Katara..."

Their happy moment was lost when they heard a familiar voice from behind the rock.

"The new kid said he would be here at six. Did he chicken out?" Laughs ensued this comment.

Oh great, an audience.

Aang looked over to Katara. She wore a nervous expression.

"Aang..." she said with caution. "Now before you do anything-"

Aang cut her off. "I need to do this. I promised. But don't worry, I'll be okay."

Katara looked like she was about to say something when Aang stood up.

"I'm right here."

Katara slapped her forehead. Zuko turned to Aang and smirked.

"Glad you could make it."


Minutes after the fight started, Sokka with the rest of the wrestlers from Kyoshi High met Katara behind the rock.

"What's going on?" Sokka questioned.

"Aang's fighting Zuko." Katara replied. "I know he could be able to do it alone, but I want you guys to help. I can't stand seeing him hurt."

"Looks like he is your boyfriend!" Sokka teased.

Katara slapped him and gave him a glare.

Sokka rubbed his cheek. "Sorry..." then he turned to Suki. "Looks like training's over."

They jumped off the rock and to where Aang and Zuko were fighting.

Both had a number of bruises and some scrapes. No major damage was done...yet...

"Hey!" Sokka screamed, catching everyone's attention. "Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

Zuko looked surprised, then angry, as he charged Sokka and the wrestlers. They all surrounded him, but he ducked down and spun around, kicking his foot under all their legs, causing them to fall.

Some girl fell into the door to the shower room. Another girl just fell to the floor. Suki fell against the boardwalk, hitting her head against a railing and getting momentarily knocked out. Sokka fell down and hit his head against a small rock.

Zuko faced the last girl standing. She looked determined and was ready to fight, but then Aang jumped on Zuko by suprise, knocking him over.

While Zuko was temporarily off guard, Katara ran over to Aang.

"Aang, I know you think you should fight, but now may be the best time to get out of here."

Aang looked around. All these people got hurt trying to protect him. He bowed his head.

"That might be best."

"Good, then c'mon!"

Suki and the rest of the girls (plus Sokka) regained consciousness and they all ran down the street while they still could, stopping only when they believed they've gone far enough.

Katara slowly approached Aang.

"Aang, you did the right thing."

Aang looked up at Katara, her eyes really sparkled in the moonlight.

I've never noticed that before...

"I know." he responded. "I was being pretty stupid, lately."

"Yes, you were." Katara embraced Aang tightly.

Aang sighed and closed his eyes, contently smiling.

"Suki..." Sokka approached the girl. "I'm sorry I treated you like a girl. I should've treated you like a wrestler."

"I am a wrestler." Suki agreed. "But I'm a girl, too."

As if to prove her point, Suki leaned in and gave Sokka a small kiss on the cheek.

Sokka blushed for a moment, staring at her blankly, a hand on his cheek.

Suki looked down.

"This may be a good time to tell you this..."

"Tell me what?" Sokka asked, sounding nervous.

Suki looked up, with sadness in her eyes. "You see, I'm doing this program. I'm going wrestlingaround the country. I'm leaving tomorrow. We're heading to New Jersey, then we're going to Alabama, then Kentucky, then Washington State. We're doing competitions. We'll be gone for a couple months."

Sokka started at her incredulously.

"What...?" Sokka's voice cracked a little.

"I'm sorry, Sokka. I'll see you again, sometime."

Sokka felt tears sting his eyes. He turned away.

He's been with this girl for only a week, and he felt this deep connection. He was hoping they might've been able to start a relationship.

She's the most amazing girl I've ever met...and now she's leaving...

This was too much, Sokkaran down the street, towards his house.

"Sokka, wait!" he heard Suki call behind him, but he didn't stop.

This is what I have to do. Make it easier for everyone...

Katara and Aang followed him inside. Sokka ran straight to his room and collapsed on his bed.

There, he cried for the first time in a looong time...


Author's Note: Y'all better appreciate this! It took me days! I'm so sorry, but I had finals this week, and school comes first, unfortunately. But, now school's almost over and I'll be able to post on the weekdays! (sometimes...) REPLY OR I WON'T UPDATE! I have better things to do than post new chapters all the time, prove me wrong!

Oh geez, now it's time for...

Comments on Chapter:

-NO HAPPY ENDING!! GAA!!
-Sorry guys, Suki is gonna be gone for a looooooooooong time...

-LOTS of Fluff in this chapter. BASK IN IT!!

-This chapter is DEFINITELY rated T.

-Sorry if any of this is corny, but it's VERY difficult to find substitutes for Avatar world stuff, and still make it relevant to the actual story taking place. Plot development is the key!

-I am not an expert on sharks. I am not an expert on CPR. Did I make a mistake? I am extremely sorry, but this was a difficult chapter.

-Sorry, not so much Zuko POV's in this. I wasn't gonna have any but I wanted some character development on his part so I sqeezed him in. Is it just me or do you think it's cool when you get different people's perspective's on an event?

-SOKKA CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! YAY! He is usually just there, but I knew this chapter would be his time to shine.

What to expect next chapter: What the heck is with this Bumi kid? He and Aang seem to be good friends but isn't he...the governor of Philadelphia?
