Kya was standing on the balcony of the estate of the Fire lord on ember island. The sun was rising and put everything in orange, red light. She loved this colors and took a deep breath. She had to think at the past eight years, the eight years who had passed since she discovered that she was also an avatar. There had been difficult situations. For example when they had returned to republic city and had to travel into the earth kingdom with Korra shortly afterwards to pull back some rebellious earthbender, or as they had to calm down some spirits at the South Pole. Her friends had supported her and so she could solve this situations without greater Problems. Of course there had been nice moments especially two she remembered.

Two years after Kyas discovery-

"Mako" Asami shouted at her friend, who turned around. "Hi", he said and hugged her shortly. "Also on the way to the airbender island?" Mako wanted to know. Asami noted and they went on. "Asami may I ask you of a favor?" Mako asked after some second. "Sure", Asami said and looked at him. She realized that he looked nervous she didn't know the explosive firebinder like that. "When we arrive could you distract Kya I have to talk with Korra", he finally said. Asami didn't ask about what he wanted to talk with Korra. Without a word they went on, past a lot of airbender into the big courtyard of the temple and like usual Kya and Korra were training here. Asami and Mako looked at each other and shooked their heads over their girlfriends and called at the same time for their beloved. As soon as they heard it they stopped to throw things at each other and went forward Asami and Mako. "Hi", Kya whispered and kissed Mako hasty it was still weird for her to kiss him in front of Korra cause he was her ex. "Kya can I talk to you?" Asami said as soon as she let go of Korra. Kya was confused they had barley talked to each other eye to eye and Mako wanted to slap his forehead with his hand that he hadn't asked Bolin for this, but it was to late now. "I wonder what Asami has to talk about with Kya", with this Korra pulled Mako back to the here and now. "Nothing actually she's just supposed to distract her, cause I like to speak with you", Mako said. "Oh yes about what?" Korra wanted to know. Without a word Mako pulled something from his pocket and gave it to Korra. "Are you serious?" Korra said surprised and looked closer at the necklace. "I'm do you think she's gonna like it?" Mako said and sounded so unsure like never before. "Of course!" Korra said exited. "She don't only fit to your relationships but also to Kya as person" she continued and went over the blue stone in which the symbols of the firenation and the watertribe where graved in. Mako smiled and took back the amulet. "And you don't have a problem with it?" Mako wanted to know with a raised eyebrow. "No why should I", laughed Korra.

At the same evening Kya and Mako went in the park where they met for the first time. It was already dark and only the stars Enlighted their way on one of the many bridges they stopped at looked at the sky. "Beautiful", Kya murmured. "Not as beautiful as you but acceptable", Mako whispered in her ear. Kya looked at him and smiled all over her face, she bend forward to kiss him but Mako pulled back. "What?" she asked panicked. "Everything alright, but I wanted to give you something", Mako said and pulled something from his pocked. As Kya saw what it was she slapped her hand in front of her mouth. "Kya", Mako said and kneeled before her, the amulet still in his hand. "Will you marry me?" as soon as he dropped the question it seemed to Mako that time had frozen, but after a felt eternity Kya nodded cause she was speechless. Mako stood up went around Kya and laid the necklace around her neck. As soon as he closed it Kya turned around and kissed him fiercely.

Today-

Kya touched the necklace, which she was still wearing and smiled, of course she didn't know if the discussion with Korra went that way, but Korra and Mako told the same so it must be true.

Several months after the engagement-

"Knock, Knock", Korra said and came in the room in which Kya was preparing. Kya turned around and smiled at her sister. "And?" she asked unsure and ran her hands over the tight dress she was wearing. "You look amazing. Mako is gonna drop out of his shoes", Korra laughed. Kya started laughing as well but said. "Better not, wouldn't be so nice if he collapse in front of the altar." "Mhm are you nervous?"Korra asked and leaned against the doorframe. "No I'm really excited", Kya answered with a shrug. "And who has the honor to give you away?" Korra asked with a diabolic smile on her face. "Stop it", Kya said and throwed a pillow against Korras head. "I really thought about asking grandfather I mean Zuko, but I don't want to take this moment from father." "Are you talking about me?" Tonraq had appeared in the door without notice. "We're ready. Korra go take your place", he continued without an answer from his daughters. Korra went away and made a rude hand movement. Tonraq looked after her and shook his head, then he turned to Kya. "Ready?" he asked. "Ready." As Kya went closer to the door to the outside she was getting nervous and clamped to the arm of her father. From outside they already heard the typical wedding music. Tonraq looked at her daughter she also turned to him and nodded and together they went through the door. A lot of people had come, but Kya didn't see who had come to celebrate the day with them. She only saw what was in front of her. On the left was Korra, on the right side Bolin in the middle some oldest. But what most caught her eyes was right from the oldest and left from Bolin. Mako! He was wearing a simple black suit, instead of a tie he was wearing his father's scarf. The expression in his was so much in love that Kya nearly started crying. Faster than expected she was standing beside him. Tonraq hugged her once more and shacked Makos hand. Then Mako took her hands in his and all she saw were his eyes. The oldest said something but Kya didn't heard a word of it. She even nearly missed to say "I do", so caught she was from Makos sight. Some when she felt his lips hers what loosed her numbness. The rest of the day was pretty easy, they had danced, laughed and eaten a lot.

Today-

Kya shook her head and smiled, but suddenly her face went dark, then there had been sad moments too, the worst had been just some weeks ago when Zuko had died. On the thought of her beloved grandfather, cause he would always be that for her, a tear ran over her cheek. "Kya is everything alright?" at the sound of Makos voice Kya turned around. He was only wearing a boxer short and a bathrobe. He came to her and wiped the tear from her face. Kya just nodded. "Are you sure? You look pale is something with the baby?" he asked worried and laid a hand on her belly. That also belonged to the happy moments, that they would become parents for the first time in short time. Kya laid her hand on Makos and the other beneath his chin so he had to look at her. "No we're fine", she said and smiled at him. "Why are you crying then?" Mako asked confused. "I was just thinking of Zuko" she said and looked to the sea. "I know that you miss him, that's normal", Mako said and laid his arms around Kya. Kya smiled, laid her head in her neck so that it rested on Makos shoulder and ran her hands over her belly. The future was shining in the brightest colors to her like most of the time lately.
