I have started writing Prequels, here is a list of them:

A Second First Date; One month after Aang defeated Fire Lord Ozai

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; This is another Prequel to Together Again. It's about a Young Female Airbender just starting out in life. She was ready to travel the world as soon as she turns 16. Little does she know, Destiny has a grand purpose for her first child.

Chapter 51

Jade took off running as fast as she could, she made it to the Palace but she was having trouble getting passed the guards. "I NEED AVATAR AANG!" She Yelled "I NEED HIM NOW! IT'S HIS WIFE! LET ME PASS! PLEASE! SHE NEEDS HIM!"

One of the guard went into a door just down the hall.

"What is all the commotion about?" The Earth King asked as the guard entered the room.

"A girl is here, she says she needs Avatar Aang. Something about his wife." The guard told them.

"What about my wife?" Aang ran out into the hall. "Jade, what's wrong?"

"Avatar Aang come quick, Lady Katara is has gone into Labor! You must come NOW!" Jade said.

Aang grabbed Jade and RAN back to their house. When he there Katara was in their bed in her nightgown, panting and crying out in pain. Suki and Mai were with her.

"Aang I need you!" she said, then she started panting again.

He sat down on the bed behind her propping her up against himself and holding her hand. She cried out from the strong contractions that were coming every 10 minutes causing her to double over in pain. He kissed her head "I'm here with you now, My Love, this time is different."

Suki wiped Katara's face with a cool cloth. Jade lifted the blanket and checked to see if it was time to push yet.


It was about 2 1/2 more hours before it was time to push.

Katara screamed in pain as her contractions were more intense and right on top of each other now, lasting a lot longer, too.

"It's not time to push yet but soon." Jade told her.

Katara cried out again panting hard.

"I love you, you can do this. I'm here with you." He had no idea how painful childbirth was, she already started to squeeze his hand so hard he thought it might break, and it wasn't even time to push yet.

Jade checked Katara once more. "OK, Lady Katara, the head is in the birth canal it's time to push... 1, 2, 3...PUSH!" Jade told her.

Katara pushed hard, Aang thought she was going to crush his hand.

"Bare Down... it's coming... (Katara cried out in pain)... just a few more seconds... push hard... The head is out, one more big push and the shoulders will be free." As another contraction came on she pushed as hard as she could, after a few more seconds they heard a loud cry. "It's a Girl!" Jade said.

Jade tied off the umbilical cord and cut it with sterile scissors. Mai wrapped the poor screaming baby girl in a blanket and handed her to Katara.

"She's so Beautiful!" Aang said. He brushed the back of his finger along her soft red cheek, she stopped screaming as soon as he touched her. He kissed Katara on the cheek. "Thank You, My Love"

Jade helped the second baby into position for its turn.

After a few minutes, Suki took the baby as the contractions started again. Aang held Katara as the pain washed over her again "You're doing great, My Love, you can do it! You are so strong!" He told her as she cried out again in pain."I'm here with you."

"OK, it's time to push again Lady Katara... 1, 2, 3... PUSH NOW!"

"You can do it... Just a few more seconds... almost there!" Jade said as Katara squeezed Aang's hand hard and cried out in pain.

"ALMOST THERE! The head is out! One more big push!" Then they heard their second baby cry. "Another girl!" Jade said. She tied off the 2nd umbilical cord and cut it with sterile scissors. Mai wrapped the second baby in a blanket and then they handed both babies to Aang and Katara.

"They're identical!" Katara cried.

"They're Beautiful! They look just like their Mommy, beautiful blue eyes and all; Katara they are so beautiful!" He cried tears of joy for his brand new beautiful daughters. "I love you so much Katara! Thank You so much!"

Jade finish up everything to do with having babies, placentas and all that stuff, and cleaned up Katara, as Suki and Mai cleaned the babies up. Everyone left the room for Aang and Katara to be alone with their new baby girls. "What should we name them?" Katara asked.

"I was thinking Kya for one of them." He said as he wiped the hair that was plastered to her forehead out of her face.

"That is a perfect name! I wish we knew your mother's name." Katara told him. "They have such beautiful sparkling sapphire blue eyes!"

"We can name the other Sapphire!" Aang said.

"Kya and Sapphire! Names as beautiful as they are." Katara said. The babies looked up at their parents and stopped fussing immediately as if they knew their names. Aang and Katara just stared at their beautiful babies smiling.

"Thank you so much Katara, for giving me such beautiful babies, I love you so much!" Aang was so full of awe and wonder as he sat on the bed with his 3 beautiful girls.

"Thank you, Aang, thank you for giving me such beautiful girls, for being here with me, for coming back to us." Katara turned and kissed his cheek.

After about half an hour Suki came in to see them, to see if they needed anything.

"Water please!" Katara said.

"Everyone is here and excited to see the new baby girls." Suki told them.

"They can come in and see us now." Katara said.

Jade came in first with water for Katara. "They are so beautiful, Avatar Aang, Lady Katara."

"You are a wonderful Midwife Jade, you did perfectly." Katara told her.

"Thank You, Lady Katara. It was an honor to deliver your babies." Jade bowed then left the room.

Sokka and Suki came in next. "Katara, they look just like you" Suki said "Have you chosen names for them yet?"

Katara smiled "Kya and Sapphire."

"They both look so squishy." Sokka said as he hugged his little sister. "Mom would be proud of them, Kya is a great choice, and Sapphire is so beautiful too."

Suki stared into the babies' beautiful blue eyes, "I know why you chose Sapphire."

Next Zuko and Mai came in. "Congratulations Katara and Aang you have two very beautiful daughters!" Zuko told them giving them hugs.

"Thank you, Zuko!" Aang said to his friend.

"They look like their mother." Mai said to them. Zuko and Mai left the room.

Jade came back in with Gyatso. "BABIES OUT!" he squilled happily, then he climbed up to his parents to see his new sisters. "Pretty" he said then he gave them both kisses.

"Gyatso, meet your baby sisters, their names are Kya and Sapphire" Aang told his son.

"Ky, Saf" he said.

There was a knock at the door, then it opened, in Iroh came in to see the new babies. "They are very beautiful! I brought you my special biscuits Katara."

"Thank you so much Iroh." He knelt next to Katara and gave her a big hug, then left the room. Zuko and Mai came back. "We have a surprise for you." Zuko told them.

Toph came in.

"TOPH! We didn't know you were here in Ba Sing Se!"

"Zuko picked me up with his war Balloon as soon as you left the meeting, Aang. I can't see them but I am so happy for you two... 3 kids now, wow." Toph said. "Can I, can I hold them?"

"Yes you can." Aang said.

"My Sissers!" Gyatso told Toph. They all laughed lightly at the boy's response.

Toph sat down on the bed, she held each baby in turn. "Thank you, Twinkle-toes, thank you Sugar Queen."

The Baby girls started to whimper a bit. Suki came in and said "Visiting time is over Mother and babies need rest." Toph left the room. Suki took Gyatso out with her.

Aang stayed with his 3 beautiful girls. Aang held Sapphire while Katara nursed Kya. Kya drifted off to sleep as she nursed, when she was sleeping, Aang switched babies and Katara nursed Sapphire. He put Kya into a bassinet then went back for Sapphire and put her into her own when her tummy was full and her eyes were heavy. Then he went back to his beautiful wife. He started crying again, "Thank You" he said over and over to her, and he cuddled her to him. He didn't know what else to say to her. His daughters where exactly what he told his wife he wanted... Beautiful little girls that look just like their mother, sapphire blue eyes and soft curly brown hair. They had long eyelashes and Katara's beautiful tanned complexion. Most importantly, they were healthy and strong.

"Thank You for being here with me!" She told him as she started drifting off to sleep herself. Her labor only lasted a few hours, it was fast but hard, she was exhausted.

He stayed in bed with her until she was fully asleep. "I owe you so much, My Love, you just keep giving, never asking for anything! I can never come close to giving back what you have given to me." He was crying tears of joy as he held his exhausted wife aginst himself. After about 20 more minuets he wiped his face and left them to sleep. When he entered the front room everyone gave him hugs and congratulations. Everyone kept commenting on how beautiful the babies were.

There was a knock at their front door, Jade answered the door. "Avatar Aang someone... someone is here to see you." Jade said nervously.

Aang went to the door and opened it, to his surprise Earth King Kuei was standing at their door. "Welcome to our house!" Aang told him.

Everyone was in shock to see the Earth King in Aang and Katara's temporary home.

"I came to see how things were." He said nervously to Aang. "When you left like you did, I thought I should come down to see how everything was. Is everything okay?" He asked Aang.

"Yes, Your Earthiness, I have 2 very beautiful, healthy daughters. Thank you for your concern."

"Avatar Aang, may I see them, and your wife?" The Earth King asked.

"Oh, umm, all three have just fallen asleep though." Aang told him.

"Oh, okay, I can wait." He told Aang.

"Okay, come in, would you like any tea?" Aang asked him.

"Tea would be Nice. Thank you."

"I'll make the Tea" The master tea maker said, Iroh went into their kitchen and started making tea for the Earth King as well as everyone in the house.

Everyone stared at the Earth King quietly. Nobody really knew what to say to him. Aang got the courage and broke the silence "I didn't expect you to come to our house."

"Oh when you left, so did almost half of everyone else..." he looked around the room and noticed that everyone that had left were right there in the front room with him.

"I'm sorry we left," Sokka said "Lady Katara is my sister."

"I'm sorry also," Zuko said, "Lady Katara is one of my closest and dearest friends."

"OH! Now I understand why you all left. I came to see the new babies too, what are they?" The Earth king said.

"They are identical twin girls, They have their mother's beauty." Aang told the king.

"Have you named them?" The King asked.

"Their names are Kya after Katara's Mother and Sapphire because their eyes are beautiful sapphire blue.

King Kuei turned to Iroh. "You seem familiar to me, do I know you?"

"Oh, I'm just a humble Tea House owner." Iroh said.

"No, I'm pretty sure I know you." The king said.

"Well I am a Grand Lotus in The Order of the White Lotus." Iroh told him. "And I'm Fire Lord Zuko's uncle."

"That's how I know you, The Order of the White Lotus returned the city to me. Fire Lord Zuko's Uncle? As in Fire Lord Ozai's older brother."

"Yeah... We, Zuko and I, are greatly ashamed of what my brother Ozai, father Azulon, and grand father Sozin did to the Earth Kingdom." Iroh said.

About an hour passed and Aang went upstairs to check on his Wife and daughters. It was now dark out and the light was out in their room.

Katara opened her eyes when she heard the bedroom door opened, she saw Aang come in. "I love you." she said to him.

"You have another visitor, would you like me to tell him he can come up?"

"Yeah, I feel somewhat rested, I'll see visitors again." Katara said.

There was a knock and Aang came in followed by Earth King Kuei.

"Your Majesty, thank you for coming to see me." 'Why is he here?' she thought.

"I wanted to see you and the babies. That girl showed up in the middle of our meeting and then almost half of the leaders left, I wanted to see what everyone ran off to see; may I see the babies?" He asked her.

"Yes Your Majesty, they are asleep in those bassinets right there."

King Koui stared in amazement, "They truly are beautiful, Lady Katara. Congratulations! I will send gifts for you and your Beautiful Daughters, Avatar Aang, Lady Katara." He bowed respectfully to the parents then excused himself.

After the Earth King left Zuko came into Aang and Katara's Room, "What Did the Earth King Want?"

"He wanted to see Katara and the babies. He wanted to see why almost half of the Major World leaders left the meeting so quickly."

Iroh brought tea, biscuits, and fresh soup, up to Katara, "You need to eat something, Lady Katara."
