Gyatso and Kara: Prodigies of an Avatar
Chapter 21- And the Heart is Cut Open
Rika slowly walked into the bedroom the Iroh was staying in. She had never been more cautious in her entire life. As she made her way to the light green table next to his bed, something stood out in the corner of her eye. A piece of paper with calligraphy all over it, it was titled Fidelity of the Utmost Kind.
"What's this?" The adolescent picked up the piece of parchment and read it over with the eagerness of a child unwrapping a Christmas present.
'Iroh wrote this?'
"Rika, what are you doing!?"
"Ahh!" She shrieked dropping the poem on the marble floor. Her light blue eyes met his dark golden-brown eyes and for the first time, she noticed somebody besides the dashing hero Iroh. Rika noticed fear in his eyes, like somebody might've just uncovered his biggest secret (and she did).
"Um, Iroh, I was, um, j-j-just searching for the map. I knew it was in your room, and I just noticed this. . ." Rika bent down and picked the paper up quickly and placed it back on the table.
"The map isn't in my room; it's in Gyatso's-"
"Sorry!" Rika to the door.
"It was a really good poem. Whoever it was written for is super lucky."
Kara and Co.
Kara of the Water Tribe sipped a cup of tea as she watched everyone reconnect with her old friends. It had been five years since she had seen them, and they had changed so, so much. Sora and Kairi had gotten married, had a little boy, and two more babies were on the way. But, the thing that was the most surprising of all was that the two of them were still madly in love with each other. Their love reminded Kara so much of her parents, and she hated the feeling of anger because they weren't together.
'This useless war tore them apart . . . tore us apart right when we started' she thought bitterly of the budding love that had started the day that she separated from her brother.
She remembered the calming Fire Nation breeze on Mt. Wang that caressed her that day. The Sakura trees were in bloom, and its flowers flew in the wind falling in the perfect place in the mountain. The way that he delicately took her hands and confessed his feelings for her and then kissed her so softly.
"I'll wait, I promise. . ." Kara whispered repeating exactly what she said that life changing day.
A small tear ran down her cheek. Kara had kept her promise, and her only fear was that he hadn't kept his.
Yep, this was short...
Alrighty so I kinda focused on two main characters for a REASON! That's all.
God Bless,
