I have written prequels to Together Again, they are part of what I call my TAU (Together Again Universe) here is a list of them along with its Summary

A Second First Date; Aang wants to take Katara out for the perfect date, their first date was so bad Aang want's this one to be perfect… Aang wants to take Katara out for the perfect date, their first date was so bad Aang want's this one to be perfect… You don't always get a second chance.

Nightmares; A One-Shot Prequel to Together Again. Aang saved the world, he faced Ozai on his own. Everyone kept saying that he was a great hero, that he was so brave. He wore a brave face and acted all the hero they thought he was. But at night in his sleep he was a scared boy, scared for his life as he tried to get away from a psycho Firebender. The Battle came back at night.

Anila's Story; She was ready to travel the world the moment she turned 16. Little did she know, life never goes as expected and that a young Airbending Master just starting out on her own is no exception. Will the winds of change bring her happiness and fulfillment? Or will she only to bed led to sorrow and regret?

Chapter 10

"Are you sure my green clothes are appropriate?" Taryn asked as she dug through the pile that was being deposited on Zuko's bed; they were in the processes of being brought over from the room next door.

"They're fine Ryn." Zuko laughed at the face Taryn was making. "I told you before that they are fine."

"I know but… Katara wears Aang's national colors." Taryn told him.

"That's because she chooses to…" He told her. "She still wears her national colors sometimes."

"Not while she was here." Taryn told him.

"Air Nomad clothes are loose and drape around her nicely, furs would be uncomfortable and to be honest, it's too hot here for her to wear furs." Zuko told Taryn picking up a beautiful light fabric green dress. "This one is pretty."

"Yeah, I kind of have a special attachment to that dress." Taryn told him as she took it and folded it to pack. "That's the dress I wore when I went to the Jasmine Dragon the day after we met."

"No wonder I like it so much." He joked. "If you want you can go shopping while we're there. Personally I think you're beautiful no matter what you wear."

"Okay." Taryn blushed. "I really would like to go shopping too though."

"They we'll go shopping, too." Zuko told her. "I need to see when the airship will be ready to go."

"Oh, Oaky…" Taryn felt a little sad that he was leaving her alone for a little bit. "Hurry back."

"I will." Zuko could hear the disappointment in her voice even though she wore a smile on her face. "You just finish packing, I'll be back before you know it." Zuko walked over to her and kissed her softly. "I love you." Then he hurried out of the room while Taryn continued packing.

Taryn sat down on the bed and scanned the bedroom, this was the first chance she really had to reflect on everything that has happened in the last week. She wondered how she ended up in the Fire Nation palace, she was going to happily marry a tea server and live in a small house, it would have still been in the Fire Nation, just not in a place like the palace, true she did wonder what the palace looked like, but she never thought she'd be inside it, she never thought she'd be 'The Fire Lady', not in her wildest dreams. Her sweet awkward tea server was not a tea server at all, he was… IS the Fire Lord. He never acted like he was royalty, or at least not how she had imagined royalty would act. She had always pictured, that if she found the right guy, a wedding in one of the beautiful parks in the middle ring of Ba Sing Se and living there for the rest of her life, but here she was sitting in the royal suite getting ready to go on her honeymoon with Fire Lord Zuko. All her children would be princes and princesses, HER children would rule after their father, HER grandchildren would follow in line… One hundred years from now HER blood would still be present in their bodies.

How did returning a little girl's dropped doll lead to where she is right at this very moment? Katara had talked about destiny a lot, about how a simple girl born into a people where waterbenders had been extinct, and how that miraculous occurrence brought the Avatar back to the world, ending the one hundred year war and bringing peace to the world. And it was miraculous, that she was destined to bring the Avatar back to the world. Taryn laughed softly, it didn't seem like destiny to return a little girl's lost doll, but if she looked at it the way Katara does wither life, but it was… The spirits worked invisible strings connecting people and places together. Taryn had planned to spend that day at home, but one of her sisters asked her to go to the Zoo with them because their nanny was sick.

"Are you almost done?" Zuko's voice drew her from her thoughts.

"Ummm… Yeah, just about." Taryn smiled she loved how just hearing his voice made her feel so happy.

"What were you thinking about?" Zuko asked her.

"Huh?" Taryn wasn't sure how he knew she was thinking about something.

"You were biting your bottom lip…" He told her. "You always do when you're deep in thought."

"Oh!" Taryn had no idea she did that.

"Anyways, the airship is ready to leave whenever we are." He told her.

"Gah!" Taryn said, frustrated that her mother couldn't give her any freedom, she's married now and still the woman couldn't give her space. "What Mother?" Taryn said as she walked into the front room of their suite.

"Why are you getting snippy at me?!" Dyna asked.

"Because you never give me any space!" Taryn exclaimed. "I'm married now… I'm getting ready to leave for my honeymoon and here you are checking on me!"

"I'm not here to check on you!" Dyna told her. "I came here to tell you that I'm going to miss you… And… well… please visit us. I know I've been overbearing but you are my baby girl and I just want the best for you."

"I know Mom…" Taryn told her. "You don't need to watch over me anymore."

"One more thing." Dyna insisted. "You better have me here when you have your babies!"

"I will Mom." Taryn said. "Goodbye."

"Goodbye." Dyna said then hugged her daughter then left the room.

"Oh, I can't stand her sometimes!" Taryn said throwing her arms into the air.

"As overbearing as she is, she does love you." Zuko told her.

"I know… She only wanted the best for us…" Taryn told him. "Her grooming us was to make sure we would always be taken care of."

"That's the last thing she'll need to worry about with you." Zuko told her. "I would give you anything you want… Anything!"

"I know you would… But I don't need things to be happy, I only need you." She told him.

"You will always have me." Zuko wrapped his arms around her and kissed her deeply.

"And maybe a few babies." She whispered against his lips.

"I can give you that too." He grinned wickedly.

"We need to get ready to go." Taryn told him.

"I know…" Zuko rolled his eyes, "We still need to say goodbye to Ursa, too."

"I'm pretty much done, I just need to put my stuff into the closet." She told him.

"Don't worry about that, the servants will put it away for you." He told her.

…

"Goodbye, Princess!" Zuko said kissing his daughter's cheek. "We will be back in a couple weeks."

"I'm going to miss you Daddy and Mommy." The little girl told them, they were standing at the bottom of the plank of their airship.

"We'll miss you too." Taryn told new daughter, hugging her tightly. "You be good for Grandma, okay."

"I will!" Ursa said.

"Have a wonderful honeymoon." Zuko's mother told them hugging them both goodbye. "I think I can handle her for a few weeks."

"Thank you again Mom." Zuko told her.

"You don't need to thank me, I'm grandma, it's my job to watch her every once in a while." Ursa told them. "Besides, you deserve alone time with your beautiful new wife… I look forward to having more grandchildren." Ursa smiled as Taryn's cheeks turned red, remembering what happened when she and her husband disappeared the evening before, she was unable to even meet her husband's eyes.

"Goodbye everyone." Taryn said quickly then entered the airship, followed closely by Zuko. As soon as he was up the plank the crew closed the plank and started to lift off.

"What's wrong Taryn?" Zuko asked her.

"Everybody keeps talking about us having babies." She told him.

"You talked about it too." He told her.

"Yeah… but that's us… it's kind of embarrassing when they say it because of… because of HOW you get babies, and they all now…"

"Oh, Ryn!" Zuko pulled her into a comforting hug. "Don't think of it that way… every one of them have children of their own, so if it makes you feel any better that all got their children the same way."

"I guess that's true." Taryn let out a small giggle. "I guess it's not really a big thing to be embarrassed about."

"It's really not." Zuko laughed with her

"Who long will it take us to get to Ember Island?" Taryn asked as she looked out one of the windows next to the plank, watching as the palace and not long after the whole city disappeared from sight.

"I, uh, I was thinking about going up to our room, If you want to join me." He had a cocky smirk and a devious twinkle in his eye.

"Fire Lord Zuko, you are naughty~" Taryn laughed.

"Only for you Lady Taryn." He joined in with her laughter.
