A/N: Just something short. I do not own Avatar: The Last Airbender.
What was power?
Aang knew within him, he had the capacity to burn down an entire forest. He could create a typhoon so massive, a wave so great, it would wipe away an island while townspeople watched and listened to their heartbeats. He could topple Omashu with a wave of his hand.
No Avatar State was needed anymore; he was realized.
But as he lay on his back in the dark, he was contented by his greatest power: Katara's nightmares were a secret to all but him, and in the night when she whimpered, he curled a wiry arm around her waist and whispered softly, "I'm here, Katara. I'm here."
She imagined burning forests and typhoons. She knew of terrible power, and it disturbed her dreams. But she knew her Avatar was responsible with his powers, and that he always came home to use them for her, as he had since the day they met.
