Everyone, I know you must hate me for putting this on hiatus without so much as a notice, but I really have no motivation to write on anymore. So this is the start of my attempt to finish this story off once and for all. If there are any inconsistencies in the next 10 chapters with the previous 50, please forgive me, because I haven't written Avatar for a long long time.

For those who continue to read this, thank you for your continuous support.

Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar. I have no right to.


Review reply: Kataang Luver: Thank you for reviewing even after such a long time. And thank you for clicking on the story buried under the mountain of Kataang stories, and for reading all the way to chapter 50, and for putting up with the chunk of words. Words cannot express how much I thank you, because I told my friend, if I recieve one review after such a long time, I would put up the next chapter. Thank you so much! I couldn't reply you because you reviewed as an anonymous reader (without a link to your account on FF, if you have one), so sorry.

My thanks go to DarkBlade56, Avatar-traducciones for reviewing chapter 50, and to all the others who have been supporting me and reviewing all this while!


Ghost of Full Moons past

No, no, no, this is not happening! Yue told herself as she eyed her husband and her 'spiritually bonded', apparently, stare each other out.

Sokka was indiscreetly just scowling at La; the latter merely looked down at him as though he were nothing.

But then again, he was a spirit. How could a measly life-form be compared to a spirit? Still...

It had started a while ago, with moonrise. Yue had known since that last encounter that eventually, La, her predecessor as the moon spirit, Tui's bonded, will seek Tui, or her successor, out, with her death.

She had also known that something not unlike the scene before her would happen.

That was before Sokka decided to spit something out. "This is pointless. Why am I fighting with someone who doesn't even love Yue over her? You don't even know her!"

"It's true, I don't know her. But I love her just the same. She is the moon spirit, and this is our destiny."

"Liar! You don't love Yue! You love Tui, who is now dead! So you claim to feel for Yue because you have to have her. For that balance thingy."

"No. It is the love between the Moon and Ocean spirits that existed from the moment Yue became the moon spirit."

"Fine! Let's fight this out, fair and square!"

"NO!" Yue screamed, cutting their conversation... ahem... argument...

Everyone turned their attention on her.

"Why are you two fighting?"

"For you!" both of them shouted a reply.

"And don't try to defend him!" La hissed, before turning to Sokka and bore cold eyes into him, "3 days. Get all the help you can, you're gonna need it," and with that, he faded into thin air.

Sokka relaxed and joined Yue by her side. "I'm sorry, Yue. I have to do this. Just stay away and don't interfere." he assured her and everyone returned to inside the palace.

This is wrong, I have a duty to the people of the water tribes! I must, with La, maintain balance within the world and not run off with Sokka for my own selfish reasons.

"I'm sorry, Sokka." with that, Yue created a wall between every on-looking person and her, and ran.

"Yue!" Sokka called, unable to see her through the thick ice.

Despite Yue's runaway act, Team Avatar set out all over the Firenation looking for old friends to help them. They managed to gather, with the help of Zuko, the whole Firenation army (of firebenders), Jeong-Jeong, etc. and on the day of the new moon, waited for La on a plain.

"Huh. New moon, when Waterbenders' powers are at their least. Great night to fight a waterbending spirit." Mai commented, looking up at the moonless black sky filled with stars.

For safety's sake, it was a collective decision not to let Aang and Katara fight, Aang because he was the bridge between worlds- a neutral position, Katara because she was a Waterbender, and no way was she going to fight her patron Spirit.

And so the rest of the team waited at the designated meeting, while Aang and Katara were left behind in the tea house...

At sundown, a mist drifted in, clearing only to reveal La and...

"YUE! What are you doing with him?" Sokka yelled to her, throwing an accusing glare at her escort.

"This has nothing to do with him- it's my choice. There is no reason for either of you to fight. Destiny and fate come together tonight to tell us that my role is as a spirit, not a mortal. This is goodbye, Sokka. Sorry." Yue said in a calm tone, yet by the firelight created by Zuko, who was standing beside Sokka, everyone could see the reluctance in her blue eyes, and the single tear-drop that by the power of gravity found its way down her face reflected the flickering firelight, as if it represented her wavering loyalties. The spirits turned to leave.

"Goodbye, Sokka," she repeated, softly, as La touched her shoulder.

That hand was suddenly removed, as a battle cry sounded. Chaos ensued, in the form of furious firebenders sending whips at the ocean spirit, who was not to be beaten, and had already shielded the both of them.

"You deserve to have a right, Yue, the basic right to decide for yourself, and not conform to some..."

"You don't understand! My people need me! The world needs this balance of forces! Look what happened when the Airbenders were wiped out!" as it left her lips, Yue knew it was a bad example.

And Sokka pointed it out immediately, "Yeah! We found the last Airbender and saved the world! There is no absolute one way to do things! Aang managed to win the war without killing off the Firelord, despite the 'kill him!'s everyone was throwing at his stressed mind. Look how you came back to earth despite everyone thinking you were gone for good to be the moon spirit. Look how my mother turned out alright, ok maybe not alright, but alive, at least, despite everyone thinking she's dead for nearly a decade. If there's one thing you should know best, it's that before the end, there's always hope. There must be some way to figure this all out."

Water materialized around La, indicating he's had enough of all the talk. He wasn't about ready to lose his love all over again. If that arrogant fool of a human thinks he can beat a spirit, go for it.


I will greatly appreciate it if you review, and give me any suggestions. And I'll try my best to write on, ensuring the quality.
