He stood staring out into the dark skies that floated above the gentle waters of the sea. Scattered throughout the night sky were the many stars, each sparkling brightly, reflecting of the water. The full moon brightly shinned, silently commanding the ocean's calm waves. Under his feet, the soft sands of the beach sat still, unlike the world around it. In one of his hands, he held a long board of earth, created moments ago using the ground not far from the beach. Behind him, a fire burned quietly, next to her, who was dreaming about her love once again, wishing that their state of being apart from each other wasn't permanent.
He stared back out to the sea. Somewhere, she was out there somewhere. He was determined to find her. He wouldn't give in to the thoughts that the island put into his head, it gave him feelings that separated him and her, and it told her she wasn't right. He didn't believe them, he wouldn't believe them, but then he wondering why he kept letting them in. He was confused, about everything and anything about them. He wished he could go back to the days when nothing was wrong, nothing came hard, when love was so easily accepted into both of their hearts.
None the less, he was determined to find her, nothing could possibly stop him. He step forward, and the cold wave of water swept over his feet, and the tingling feeling moved up through his legs and his whole self. He toke another step forward, and the water no covered his ankles. He then stepped back, disobeying his heart, and going with his mind. But before he lived in a way where you listen to what your heart screams, not your mind commands. But they were in different times now; they were different people, in a different situation, and in a different world.
He moved back to the beach, back to where he began at the beginning of the night, confused more than ever so. He looked out towards the moon; it once taught him the valuable lesson. Push and pull, in perfect harmony. The push could not exist without the pull, and the pull could not stand with the push. But what was his push? What was his pull? Was it her?
He fell to his knees in stress, holding his head. So much ran through his mind, and it felt like it a just exploded. Mixed feeling of his past ran through his head, almost none of her. He couldn't explain. A tear built up in the corner of his eye, and it slowly trickled down his cheek. He wiped it off and groaned quietly.
He used to rule the world, but now the world seemed to rule him. All his doubts and all of his greatest fears seemed to just become real at that point, the point in which was revealed to the world that surrounded him. He tried to stand and break the embrace that burdened him so hard. He tried to stop, stop the state in which he was now in. He tried to win the fight, the fight against himself. Then energy, pulsed through his heart and veins.
Then he stood, pushing his doubts to the back of his mind, going with his heart instead of his mind, going with what he wanted, not what should be. He stared walking into the water, ready for the freezing clutch of the ice cold water. When it hit him, it came as a surprise. We overcame the cold, the cold water the sucked him in.
Then, a warm hand covered his shoulder. It brought a feeling of comfort through his whole body. It made him feel well and accepted, and loved. He almost smiled, but something that hung him over made him unable to. He felt friendship.
"Don't leave," the steady voice advised, "Even as the avatar, you won't be able to find anyone out there."
"I have to, I have no choice," He replied back.
"You do," she wisely stated, "Just wait, we'll be found."
"I'm done waiting."
Then the slate of earth hit the water, and his feet soon embraced the board, and then he moved the water around him, and he blasted into the darkness that hovered over the sea. She watched as he disappeared into the horizon.
Aang was the only thing to slip out of Suki's eye, a single tear rolled down her cheek, wishing the night could have gone differently.
