Chapter Nine: Sister VS Brother

Sokka sat on his throne looking down upon his opponents. Katara walked towards him slowly weapon ready if he tried anything funny.

"It's been so long sister, How have you been since that night" He gloated

"You have no idea what I've been through. These past three years I have suffered pain and seeing things you only see in your nightmares" she spat

Sokka laughed a cold laugh that didn't suit him. He stood from his throne and walked down to his sister who was now on the lower step of throne. He came almost to touch range, he reached out his hand to touch her face but Katara just moved her head back before he could.

"Oh come now. You should be proud of your brother. I've created a fortune, I have my servants, an army and my own land. Mother and Father would be so proud."

Katara was so infuriated she grabbed her dagger to cut Sokka which missed him by inches. He jumped back still grinning.

"You may have been strong but still to slow" He laughed

"You think Mom and Dad would be proud of what you've become. You made these people live in fear of you. And where were you when they were being devoured and raped by demons. Mom and Dad would hate you for what you are. A Monster." Katara said angrily

Sokka growled and stamped the floor making it shake then crack.

"You really think you deserved to be dads air to his legacy. I was the eldest and the strongest but he saw something you that seemed to have skipped me. I was the only one who saw for what you were. A dog that could do a few fancy bullshit moves that some how that made you special. You made me turn away and become this and I hated you for it" he growled

Katara sighed, ever since they were children they had each others back. But now all she could do was pity the man she looked up too for so long. And pity his for being able to accept the way things are.

"I never hated you Sokka. I loved you because you were my brother and I could always count on you to be there for me. But now all I can do is pity you for what you've become just because you couldn't accept the fact that I was better then you"

Sokka roared and launched himself into the air. Katara then threw three dangers at his body with such force that sent him smashing into the stone wall. Katara wondered towards the debris. All of a sudden a giant paw blew out from the debris. Then out came the very thing that had been plaguing Katara's dreams for three years. It was The Hell Fox see had seen that very night her life changed.

"Whats the matter Sister? Don't recognise your own brother" it growled

"Sokka?" She stammered

The beast suddenly sent her flying with a swipe of his huge paw. Sending her flying and skidding on the ground. Isolde and Guts ran over to her to see if she was okay. She had blood running down her forehead. Hell fox Sokka stomped towards them blood dripping from his claws. Katara managed to pull her self up, Guts began to worry that she wouldn't make it but was surprised that she could still move.

"No surprise that you can still move sis. I would assume being born a still born you wouldn't go down that easily. Wish I could say the same for Mom and Dad" Sokka laughed

It was at that moment Katara released what happened that night. She rose and beaconed Isolde and Guts to stand back.

"It was you. You killed Mom and Dad" She spat

"Yes I killed them. How else would I become this powerful" He said stated the obvious.

Katara began to get really pissed. She charged at Sokka but he smashed he against a pillar. She landed face down. She felt the white hot pain but it was nothing to anger she felt towards her brother.

"You can shoot all you want sis. Nothing can kill me. Dad barely put up a fight, well what would I expect from a man who thinks his son unworthy". He gloated

He walked over and picked her up from the head.

"You did this to them knowingly you bustard. Gaining power meant more to you then your whole family" She said weakly

"Yes I did. And yes You were supposed to die that night, but some how fate spared you. It brought you three fleeting years but I would get you in the end. Now you face you fragile end, I'll enjoy ripping the flesh from your bloody bones" He laughed

All of a sudden Sokka was blasted in his side and then slashed down his back. He turned to see Guts and his canon arm smoking. He then turned around to see Isolde standing with blood on her fang he realised as his own.

"Now Katara" Isolde yelled

Katara then swung her Naginata that was coated in frozen ice and hit Sokka in his side almost cutting him the whole way through. He fell and nocked over a lamp torch that set the room aflame. Sokka lay in his blood spilling over the ground. Katara walked over to him with a dagger in her hand.

"Three years I've suffered because of you. I have demons plaguing my nights and not giving one moments peace. All because of you. You destroyed my life, my home and my family. You say a fragile human can't kill you. Maybe because you've forgotten what it's like to be human. And now you will feel the pain we feel and understand" Katara scolded her brother weapon raised.

Isolde wanted to stop Katara from killing her brother. But Guts gave her a gaze that told her to stay back. She needed to do this, her wouldn't rest if she didn't. But then she did the unexpected she lowered her weapon and turned away.

"Whats the matter? To afraid to kill your own flesh and blood" Sokka gurgled with blood coming out of his mouth.

"No. You've destroyed half of it already. I'll just let the flames to consume you. And leave you with the last memory of you little sister beating you a second time. Because if I kill you now, you would win. I won't let you have the satisfaction." Katara said strongly.

And with that she, Guts and Isolde walked away leaving Sokka laughing like crazy. The laughter suddenly turned to cries of pain when the fire consumed his body.
