Suki looked at Katara and Aang in shock. They weren't moving.
"Oh my gosh! Uh………uh…." She said starting to run back. "Sokka! Sokka!!"
Sokka heard Suki and jumped out of his sleeping bag.
"What! What happened!? Are you ok?!" Sokka asked, surprised.
Suki ran into the tent. She had a face on like she had just seen a ghost. She didn't move.
"What is it, Suki? What's wrong?" Sokka said, gently shaking her shoulders.
"A-a-a-aang and K-k-katara!" Suki said shakily.
"What? What about them?" Sokka asked worried.
Suki was silent, she couldn't speak.
"What about them Suki!?" Sokka asked.
"Th-th-th-their o-outside," Suki said, still shakily, "O-on the g-g-ground!"
"Oh my gosh!" Sokka yelled, grabbing Suki's hand, "Where are they?!"
"Over there! By the forest!" Suki said, pointing it the direction of the forest.
Sokka ran as quick as he could out of the tent, still holding onto Suki.
"Right there," Suki said, pointing at the unconscious couple.
"Oh my god," Sokka said, falling to his knees by Katara. "What happened."
He started to cry.
Suki sat down next to him.
"It's ok, Sokka, the're gonna be alright, but we need to get them to a tent." Suki said, about to pick up Katara.
"No, let me carry her." Sokka said, looking at his sister.
"Ok, I'll get Aang." Suki said, walking over to Aang.
Sokka looked down at Katara. She had so many cuts and bruises. He picked her up gently and held her tight.
They carried them to their tent and laid them down on a bed.
Sokka held Katara's wrist, hoping to find a pulse. He did, but it was very small, barely even there.
Suki did the same for Aang, he had a small pulse also.
They went and got bandages for the two. Suki wrapped up Aang, and Sokka wrapped up Katara.
Katara's entire right leg was bandaged, and some around her left ankle. Aang's right leg had been broken, so it was wrapped up. They both had their stomachs to their chests covered. Katara's right arm was wrapped from her wrist to her shoulder, and her upper left arm was bandaged. Katara had a small bandage where she had got that cut on her forehead.
None of there cuts were showing. Only a few bruises were in sight, because they were small, they didn't get covered up.
Sokka sat on a chair next to Katara. She had a sad and pained face on. Aang's face looked like a normal sleeping one.
"Katara……….what did they do to you," Sokka said holding her hand.
He pulled the covers over the couple and watched them for a while. He eventually fell asleep laying next to the bed.
Suki walked in. She was holding a blanket, and she covered Sokka with it.
She looked at Aang and Katara, they looked so lifeless.
She sighed. "Please, you guys have to get better, I hate seeing Sokka like this," She said silently, and then she walked out of the room.
The next morning, Sokka woke up to smelling meat.
"Food……so hungry…..," He looked around, getting up, he noticed Aang and Katara, "Katara…."
His eyes started to fill with tears. "Why…." He said, walking out of the tent.
Suki looked up. She was the only one awake.
"Are you okay, Sokka?" Suki said worried.
"I'm fine, I guess." Sokka said, staring at the ground.
"I made you some breakfast," Suki said, smiling, "Here ya go." She handed him a bowl of meat.
"Thanks……." Sokka said, beginning to eat.
Suki started to cook her breakfast when suddenly she realized Sokka was crying.
"Sokka……it's going to be okay, Aang and Katara will heal and then everything will be back to normal," Suki said, trying to get Sokka to be hopeful.
She finished making the breakfasts and looked over at Sokka. She walked over to him.
"Should we go wake up Toph and Zuko? We still need to tell them that Aang and Katara are back." Suki asked.
"Yeah…………………..can…..can I tell them?" Sokka said shakily.
"Sure," Suki replied.
They walked into Zuko's tent.
"Zuko…..Zuko…..Wake up!" Sokka said.
"Huh? Huh? Wha-? What happened?" Zuko said, sitting up, rubbing his eyes.
"We have something to tell you," Suki said.
"What is it?" Zuko said, not quite awake.
"Aang……Aang and Katara are b-back." Sokka said.
"What?! Where, When?……….How?" Zuko said, eyes wide.
"Last night, about 10:30, over there by the forest Suki saw them collapsed on the ground, We got them all wrapped up," Sokka said.
"Wh-what? Wrapped up? What happened to them?!" Zuko said completely shocked.
"A-azula, wh-whipped them with fire, because they had giant cuts all over them and on those cuts, there were burns." Sokka said shakily.
"Azula……..I'll kill her!" Zuko yelled. "Are….are they still…..you know…..alive?"
"Yeah, barely." Sokka answered.
"Are they awake?" Zuko asked.
"No, they haven't woken up at all." Sokka replied, looking down.
"Can I see them?" Zuko said.
"Sure," Suki replied.
They all walked into Aang and Katara's tent.
"Oh my god," Zuko said, shocked at what he is seeing, "They look so lifeless."
Silence.
"Guys? Can…can I have some alone time?" Sokka asked.
"Sure thing, Sokka." Suki and Zuko said. They walked to Toph's earth tent to to tell her what had happened.
Sokka walked over to Katara. Katara had winced in pain.
"Katara?" Sokka said, hoping that Katara would wake up.
No answer.
Aang rustled a little, but then went back to his motionless state.
Sokka looked at the two. "I should have gone with you, Katara, This never would have happened. He started to cry.
All of a sudden, Sokka heard a loud yell, saying, "WHAT!?"
It was Toph. Zuko and Suki had told her what had had happened and Toph what running torwards Aang and Katara's tent.
She stopped in front of the bed. She couldn't see but she could feel how motionless they were through the vibrations of the ground.
She started to cry, and she fell to her knees.
Sokka came over to her and hugged her, and she hugged him back. They were both crying.
Two more days passed of no movements from Katara or Aang, lots of crying, and depressed souls.
Sokka walked into Katara and Aang's tent. They hadn't moved since they were placed on the bed.
Sokka sat next to the bed. He pushed back some of Katara's hair and kissed her forehead. Then he started to rub her head gently.
After a little bit, Katara cuddled up against Aang, and Aang wrapped his arm around her.
Sokka was happy that they moved, but they didn't wake up.
Sokka stayed there for about and hour.
He got up to leave, but heard and small, quiet voice.
"Sokka?"
