(a/n: avatar is not mine.) (sob)
. : I Chapter Nine I : .
Sweat from the boy had mixed with her own on the front of her blue robe and a combination of dirt and tears were smeared across her face. Her legs trembled under the weight of the airbender and her breath was staggered. Iroh stood and looked the waterbender in the eyes.
The girl opened her mouth to speak, "P-please...help."
Iroh looked from the girl to his nephew, who was glaring over at the girl. "She doesn't seem to be of any threat to us." Zuko turned away from his uncle, mumbling, "Do what you wish."
Iroh was by the waterbenders side the second after the words exited Zuko's mouth. He sat the waterbender down on a tree stump and carried the airbender over to the fallen tree trunk he'd been sleeping on a few moments ago.
Zuko looked from the unconscious Avatar to the young waterbender, whom still looked slightly shaken, sitting rigidly on the stump. He began to walk toward her, but stopped dead in his tracks. Why should he help her? Was there even a reason? Not that he could find.
It took him a few moments to realize the girl was boring holes into his eyes. Snapping back into the real world, he jerked his head the other way and walked over to his carved target again.
The girl breathed in a deep breath in, then curled her legs up to her chest and rested her chin on her knees, watching Iroh intently bandage one of the Avatar's deepest wounds.
A small tear streamed down her cheek, leaving a dark dot on her blue robe.
Aww...poor Katara. And poor Aang...I guess...but I'm still mad at him cuz of the season finale. But whatever. (bleh):P
