New chapter yay! Sorry about the delay, my documents were being very odd and kept disappearing on me and I actually lost this entire document and had to re-type it from memory, so sorry if the quality isn't as good as it could've been if this was the original, which I suppose is lost in cyberspace right now.

Also, I was wondering if I should get a twitter…then you all could track me and see what I'm up to story wise and stuff? I don't really know, just a thought of mine I've been having for a while. Any comments?

Well, anyways…I apologize if these next chapters feel a little bit slow, but I have to build somehow, so just bear with me.

Chapter Forty-Five: You, Me, and Her, Part Two

Aang and Katara arrived just as promised, on time and without delay within a few days of Zuko and Aang's telephone conversation.

Zuko was surprised to see that only Katara and Aang had shown up, he was sure that Sokka would've been with them, and he had already known that Toph and Yuexi were planning to go home for a while. Katara informed Zuko that Sokka had felt a need to be home as well and went back to the South Pole alone. Katara, even though she would've liked to go home and inform her father of her engagement, refused to leave Aang to go on another mission without her being right beside him, so she came along.

"So what exactly are we here for Zuko?" Katara asked in greeting the second they met up with the Fire Lord.

"Well, technically I only asked Aang to come, so it's more like what he's here for," Zuko answered with a sneer and Katara just smacked his arm lightly.

"Okay, can we be serious here?' Aang interrupted. "What's going on here, Zuko…what's this meeting that I'm here for?"

"Well, there's been a series of natural disasters along the coasts of the Earth Kingdom and the Fire Nation."

"Natural disasters?" Katara echoed.

"Yeah, mostly tsunamis and earthquakes, but they've been completely tearing apart the coasts, so much that the we're going to need to assemble a rescue and repair squads to go and help the affected areas."

"So this meeting must be to finalize who's on the squad?" Aang concluded.

"Yeah, and chart out a route of already affected areas to go to." Zuko added.

"I'm guessing Aang's on this rescue team, huh?" Katara asked, seeming slightly annoyed.

"Well, yes, and so are you, Katara, but we'll have to discuss this later, me and Aang have to get to this meeting….now."

"Right now, but me and Katara just got here!" Aang exclaimed.

"No time, come on." Zuko hurried, completely blowing over Aang's comment, and pulled him further into the palace. Katara just stood, a little confused and still slightly annoyed.

She had a feeling that after the ride her and Aang had on Appa and now being thrust into another mission, her plan wasn't going to go as smoothly as she thought.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Katara found herself wandering around the palace until finally spotting a familiar face….the Fire Lady.

"I was wondering when you'd get here, but you cut it a little close, I'm sure the meeting's already started." Mai explained after proper greetings were exchanged.

"Yeah, Zuko just pulled Aang off a little while ago….I gather they'll be in there a while."

"Yeah, even the simplest things can take hours in that old war room." Mai rolled her eyes. "So I'd suggest you just sit tight."

"Well, what are you up to today?"

"I was supposed to be having a lunch date with Azula, but I'm pretty sure she's going to blow me off again." Mai sighed. "I just don't know what's wrong with that girl."

"What is Azula up to now?" Katara sighed as well. Katara wasn't shy to say that she was happy when Azula was away 'finding herself", it gave her and Aang a chance to patch up their relationship after the shock of Azula's insertion, and she had carefully avoided any major contact with her the little while she was at Iroh's teashop before she left with Zuko and Mai. Nonetheless, she wasn't surprised at all to hear that Azula as causing more drama. She just wondered what she could possibly be up to this time.

"She's seemed to turn her possessive nature onto Zuko now." Mai told her. "But I know she's especially mad because...well…" Mai trailed, realizing she hadn't really told anyone yet about her and Zuko's decision. "Look, I'm not one for chatty girl talk, but…" Mai's lips spread in a very non-Mai smile, "…Zuko and I are planning on having a baby."

"What!" Katara exclaimed, smiling widely. "You and Zuko…really?"

"Yes, really….is it that shocking?"

"A little….I mean…wow…."

"It took me a while to realize I wanted to, but…you know…why not?"

"I guess you two have been married a while..." Katara trailed, seemingly thinking more intently about it at the moment than Mai was. "So what's it like…to know you want to have a child?"

"It's kinda of hard to really know for sure….but it seems like being in a relationship is filled with choices that you're really not sure of until you just dive in. I guess I won't technically be ready until that's the only option." Mai told him, speaking more to herself than anyone else.

Suddenly Katara put two and two together, going back to her and Mai's original conversation concerning Azula.

"So that's why Azula's acting weird, huh?" Katara spewed out. "She feels like Zuko's paying more attention to you and not enough to her?"

"I guess so…it's the only logical explanation," Mai frowned. "I just wish she wasn't like that, but what else can I expect from an unstable princess?"

"Maybe Azula just has to experience a real relationship, instead of being all possessive."

"Maybe…"

"Mai?" Azula's voice suddenly crashed through their conversation.

"Azula!" Both older girls exclaimed simultaneously.

Azula blinked and locked eyes with both girls, not missing the fact that Katara had arrived already, which meant that Aang couldn't be far behind. She wanted to comment or greet Katara, but after overhearing their conversation, anything she could say would be awkward "I…I think, I'm up for that lunch now." She decided on instead on causing a commotion.

"Uh…really?" Mai's eyes widened slightly.

"Yes….and Katara, you can come too. I think I need to speak to the both of you."

Mai and Katara just regarded Azula's strangely calm actions with suspicious looks before falling into step beside the princess on their way to the lunch he had promised them.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

The lunch area was cleared by Princess Azula's request so the Fire Lady and Waterbendering Master Katara could have a word with her.

Why are we having this conversation? Mai's the enemy. The old Azula's voice came in abruptly. She's stealing Zuko away from us…

Stop it! Azula screamed within her mind. Why does there always have to be an enemy with you?

"Um…are you going to say anything?" Mai asked after Azula stood silently staring out the window for a few minutes, clearly in a daze. She snapped out of it when she heard Mai's voice.

"Oh...uh, yes…can we just sit a talk for a second?"

"Sure," Mai sat alongside Azula and Katara was about to take the chance to excuse herself due to the fact that she'd rather be anywhere but talking to Azula about possessiveness, but Azula looked over at her next.

"You too Katara," she said quietly while Katara just huffed and sat down noisily.

"Look, I'm very sorry to the both of you." Azula started out saying. Though her apology was blindingly awkward. Her eyes darted every which way but at Mai or Katara and although her hands where hidden beneath the table in her lap the fact that her fingers were twiddling was just as obvious as her nervousness.

It was evident that Azula didn't apologize very often.

"I…I can't exactly blame my illness for everything anymore. Mostly all of my memories are back, but I still don't feel like my old self and I'm pretty sure I never will. I wouldn't expect either of you to understand what I'm going through, but I know my possessiveness is hurting both of your relationships and for that I'm sorry."

Both older girls were silent and slightly surprised.

"I guess that's all I had to say…." Azula sat up from her seat at that time and was making a move to leave. As much as she had apologized her tone of voice was anything but sincere and it was Katara who held her sleeve as she passed by, stopping her in her tracks.

"You're mad because Mai and Zuko are trying to have a child." Katara mentioned, not exactly making it a question.

"….Yes, a little."

"Stop it." Katara told her dryly. "You can't keep thinking people are possessions of yours and the second they pay someone else attention other than you that it means you can make them your little doll."

Azula shrugged her arm away, not turning around.

"I've said what I had to say." Azula told them again and continued to walk.

"…Well….what do you have to say about that?" Katara asked Mai a few moments later.

"Her world is just so small," Mai commented. "And, sadly, the only one who can make it any bigger is her…she just has to be willing."

All Katara could do was nod.

"So have we narrowed down the first charted course of the rescue team?" Zuko asked sternly.

"Yes, sir, we've plotted out three locations that need the most assistance as of right now for the main team." Commander Chin pointed out. "The town of Mien, Son Bay, and we've just recently heard of frequent disturbances in Li Shang."

"Good, good."

"The teams will check in with Tower Republic before departing to heir assignments."

"I still don't get what this Tower Republic even is," Aang mentioned truthfully.

"The newest central hub in modern communication." Zuko answered for him. "I'd go into further detail but it's getting late and we need to wrap this up."

"Alright…so it's decided that my team will go to the Town of Mien first after 'checking in' at Tower Republic?" Aang confirmed.

"Yes, Avatar Aang….and we've already sent out word to the Kyoshi Warriors, the trusted members of the Black Jade, and Earthbending master Toph about the team and they'll meet you at Tower Republic."

"Sounds good."

"Commander Hazuki will meet you all there in four days, be ready."

"Thank you sir."

"Meeting adjourned." Zuko called out and all of the generals, commanders, advisors, and officials left the hall.

As anticipated, planning out the different rescuing teams, who would be on them, and what their beginning course of action would be took mostly all day. They had started in the late afternoon and when the meeting was finally over Zuko and Aang weren't surprised to see that it was past dinner.

"I hope my sister and Mai didn't kill each other without me there." Zuko sighed.

"Yeah, and I hope Katara's alright."

"Well, what's the deal with you two anyways?"

"I don't know, but I just can't help but think she's hiding something from me. She's been acting strange for a while now. Even on the trip here, I was looking forward to our alone time, but it seemed like she ignored me the whole time."

"Turning down alone time, huh?" Zuko pondered over. "Mai only does that when she's mad at me….so maybe you did something to her and you're just no aware."

"I already tried asking her if I had done something, but she keeps telling me it's not my fault." Aang looked over at Zuko with a worried expression. "But I know she's hiding something…she even told me that she'd tell me what it is….but she still never did."

"That's rough, I don't really know what to tell you."

"I guess I just have to be patient….but it's killing me knowing that she's going through something and she can't even tell me about it." Aang let his shoulders fall, slumping over as he walked.

"Well I'd say something to talk to her, but you've probably already done that."

"Too many times."

"Well then if you really think she's hiding something big then you've only got two options….either be patient or snoop around until you find out what she's hiding." Zuko told him seriously.

"I guess you're right." Aang just sighed.

"Oh, hey Mai." Zuko greeted suddenly when he saw his wife walking up. "What's wrong?" He asked soon after, knowing her worried face anywhere.

"Azula and I finally got to talk today." She told him slowly.

"Oh…really?"

"Yeah."

"And?"

"Well, it was as awkward as I expected, but I don't know about her, I think there might be a lot more wrong with her than just forgotten memory." Mai explained.

"What do you mean?" Aang asked, joining in on the conversation when Azula's lost memory entered. He had gotten a chance to speak to Azula about her journey when she came to the Jasmine Dragon, but the topic of her condition hadn't really come up. Aang didn't ask and she didn't tell. He had assumed that she was getting better, even when he spoke to her then, she seemed more in tune with herself and not worrying about things she didn't remember, but maybe she was dealing with more than he thought?

"Well, she just said that she doesn't feel like herself and the whole conversation was just weird. Maybe you should talk to her Zuko?"

"I've tried to a lot this week, but she seems to be mad at me too."

Aang didn't need any invitation when both Zuko and Mai gave him a look. Aang just shook his head, heading towards Azula's room.

"I'm not even here a day and I'm already dealing with other people's drama." He muttered under his breath as he walked.

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

To Aang's luck he didn't have to walk clear across the palace to reach Azula's room, for he found her outside on a balcony near the lunch area.

"Hey there." He greeted, trying to sound cheery enough. "Long time no see, huh?"

"I figured you were here when I saw Katara."

"Oh…" Aang gulped, already knowing about how Azula and Katara weren't a good combination. "Well, how have things been going around here?"

"Zuko and Mai asked you to talk to me didn't they?" Azula said dryly, not yet meeting his eyes as she stared blankly ahead at the collage of stars before her in the night sky. Aang was silent as he walked next to her, placing his hands on the rim of the balcony much as she was.

"They're both worried about you, you know." He told her. "And frankly, from what I've heard, so am I."

"…"

"You seemed fine last time we spoke in Ba Sing Si…what happened?"

"Zuko leaving me too, I know he is." Azula admitted. "I know I'm being overdramatic and selfish but he's my brother and I need him to be here for me…not Mai."

"I know you feel that way, but Mai's his wife and Zuko is the Fire Lord….you have to share him."

"Why?"

"Because that's just how it goes sometimes. Some people have duties that they have to do and they can't get around it…." He looked at her before turning his attention back to the stars as well. "I wish I could give all of myself to Katara, but unfortunately half of me will always belong to the world and there's nothing I can do about it." He took a breath. "Jealousy is natural in all humans and you can't get around feeling it, but you can't let it consume you and cause problems for the others around you."

"…I honestly don't know too much about love, the old Azula knew more about it than I did apparently. But, I know the love I feel for my brother isn't the same love you might feel for Katara, but I still just want him all to myself, I don't want to share him and then he find someone better than me to spend time with."

"I know," Aang smiled and placed a hand on Azula's shoulder, turning her slightly so she'd face him. "But maybe instead of fighting Mai for your brother's attention you can be friends with her like you used to be."

"It was easier when it was just me and her and we weren't fighting for anything." Azula told him.

"Well, spend some time with Mai, just the two of you."

"Maybe…but then her and Zuko won't be able to have a baby."

"Uh…." Aang swallowed hard. He, actually, didn't know that Mai and Zuko were trying to conceive yet, he figured that this fact was what triggered Azula's abandonment feeling again and didn't dwell on getting specifics from her at the moment.

"Well," He continued after a moment's pause. "You know you'll always have me…even Katara." Azula only regarded the last portion of his comment with a snicker.

"Katara doesn't like me." She told him childishly, pouting a little. "I don't think she ever will, and I don't blame her."

"I know Katara may seem a little rough sometimes but she always comes around. It took her a while to get to like Zuko, but now they're really good friends and you can be good friends with her too."

"You think so?" Azula asked him, turning her eyes over to his gaze, wide and confused and so many other emotions.

"Yeah, actually, I do….you both just have to try a little harder."

Azula stood beside him, feeling exhausted and look down at her feet, not exactly knowing what to say.

"It'll all be alright, Azula, I promise." Aang told her softly. "You just have to remember that not all the attention you receive needs to come from one person. You have plenty of friends who care about you and you can always make new ones."

"Yeah…" Azula trailed with a happy tone, but her empowerment faded quickly when he felt the disapproval of her former self within the regions of her mind. Her eyes feel once again. "If she'll let me." She added softly, but not soft enough that Aang didn't hear her.

"She?" He questioned. "What do you mean 'she'?"

"The other Azula." Azula told him. "The person I used to be."

"Wh-what? I don't understand."

"I can hear her in my head. She's always with me and telling me what to do. I don't always listen and when I don't, it's like I'm at war with my own self. She doesn't trust anyone….well, all but two people." Aang's eyes widened as well, making the connection that this must've been the 'other thing' Azula was dealing with that no one knew about.

"Have you told anyone else about this?" He asked her, just to make sure.

"No…who else would understand or even believe that there's two people inside of my body!" She screamed. "It's so…weird. She's like the evil conscience that you can't listen to…but…but sometimes it's hard not to." She wrapped her arms around herself, the slight chill within her growing colder and colder as she confessed. "But, I want to help her first."

"Help her?" Aang echoed."

"Yes," Azula nodded. "She's lonely and scared and she's been betrayed and abandoned and all she wants to is to be at peace. I want to give her that peace and I know what to do…but I don't know how."

"Well, we'll help her together." Aang told her firmly and grabbed her shoulders all the same. "I mean you…and mean the old the Azula….I mean…well, you get it."

"Yeah, I get it." Azula laughed a little. "We'll help her together and I'll become friends with Katara and Mai!"

"Sounds like this is going well," Zuko's voice breached through their celebration, leaning against the wall and smiling in appreciation.

Azula's smiled dropped back down to a frown before she ran up to her brother, sobbing slightly against his robes and saying how sorry she was as she embraced him.

"I promise I won't come between you and Mai again." Azula added.

"It's okay…" Zuko hugged her tightly, patting her hair before pulling her away by her shoulders. "But, you've got to get out more, Azula, you can't be such a hermit."

"I know…" Azula sighed before her head perked up and both Aang and Zuko could see she had an idea.

"What?" Both Aang and Zuko asked simultaneously.

"What if I went with Aang and the rest of the rescue team? I'm sure there will be people on the team I can make friends with and then I can work on my friendship with Katara. And then you can have some…uh….well, you can be with Mai." She told them and turned towards Aang with a smile, clearly proud of herself. Aang was skeptical about letting her come along, but he didn't exactly have the heart to say no to her when she was so excited about the whole idea.

"That sounds perfect." Zuko said before Aang could get a word in. "I'm proud of you Azula."

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

"So are things going well with the meeting?" Katara asked that night. Her and Aang had requested that they share a room to take advantage of the fact that Sokka wasn't there to keep them separate and though Zuko had a gut feeling Sokka would kill him if he ever found out he agreed. They were engaged after all.

"Yeah, we've got the basics down, I'm not sure what the meeting will be about tomorrow, but I'm sure it'll take long unnecessary hours to do it." Aang rolled his eyes and pulled down the bed coverings. "I heard you had a pretty busy day though." Aang said and looked up at her when he could see she had paused in her tracks of exiting the washroom.

"Uh, yeah, I guess you can say it was busy."

"So how are things with you and Azula?" He asked her.

"Shouldn't I be asking you that question?" Katara snipped back.

"Katara," Aang sighed. "How was it?"

"She's exactly the same as when she left on her so called 'journey'," Katara said. "Just as possessive as ever, only this time it's about her brother."

"Well, you know, maybe all Azula needs is some good friends…..like you."

"Me?" Katara laughed a little. "Why on earth would I want to be friends with someone who killed you?"

"Katara, that was the old Azula, maybe you should try and get to know the new one?"

"There is no 'new Azula', she's just one person and the second she snaps out of whatever's wrong with her head she's going to turn right back into the same evil Azula she was before and then everyone's going to be sorry they trusted her."

Aang just regarded her rant with a sigh and the two both got in the bed, and just flopped down into the crush of pillows and looked up at Katara who was still sitting upright.

"You know…in a way….you and Azula are a lot alike."

"What!" Katara exclaimed. "How on earth could you compare me to her?"

"Katara," Aang exhaled and sat up, placing his hands firmly over hers. "I love you, but you have to learn to trust people more."

"I do trust people." Katara countered. "Too easily sometimes," she regarded her last comment and look up at Aang, still remembering how easy it was to trust him, even when they had first met. Aang embraced her lightly when he noticed the sparkle in her eye and leaned his forehead against hers, stroking her hair ardently.

"I really think you two could get along if you just tried…I want you two to be friends."

"Well, it takes two people to be friends Aang," Katara told him.

"I know….you both have to work on it." Aang pulled back and kissed her forehead before lying back down on the bed.

"Fine," Katara sighed. "I'll give it a try, but it might get messy."

"I'm willing to take that risk right now," he joked and pulled her against him as he settled. "Good night," he told her with one last kiss atop her head.

"Good night, Aang."

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

The next day in the palace was awkward for Katara and Azula alike. It had seemed that things has patched up with Mai and Azula considerably nicely. Mai had to admit, she had pity and sympathy for this 'new Azula' and couldn't stay mad at her. Katara, on the other hand, still found it hard enough to even look at her without sudden impact but now she had to be friends with her!

She couldn't exactly get out of it—for she had given Aang her word already—but, nonetheless, she still spent the most part of her day in the palace before departure avoiding Azula like the plague.

"You know, I can tell you're avoiding me." Azula smirked when she was finally able to find Katara by the turtle-duck pond. But, Katara was just silent, not because she was angry but because she honestly didn't know what to say to Azula. "Look, Aang wants us to be friends, so I'm trying to keep my word to him."

"So what are you two best friends now?" Katara asked bitingly and mentally slapped herself afterwards. She didn't want to resurface that old argument.

"I don't know," Azula answered carefully and sat down next to Katara, watching her water bend some of the pond water into a circle before putting it back. "I won't be if it bothers you."

"I guess it doesn't bother me as much….it's just weird." Katara said.

"Aang told me it was a long time before you trusted Zuko, so I'll just be patient." Azula told her and smiled as nicely as she could for the other girl. Katara's eyes widened, Azula's emotions were very unstable—one moment she was angry, another depressed, and another she was scarily happy—but the Azula she saw before her wasn't what Katara was expecting in the least sense. She seemed raw, but the happiness in her was shining through somehow. And for the first time, Katara saw this new Azula that everyone else seemed to see all the time. There wasn't any pretense or smoke and mirrors to her conversation, no hidden plot or sinister intentions. Just Azula and her having a conversation.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Azula asked after Katara blanked out for many moments.

"You're really not in there are you?" Katara finally said, looking closely at Azula before backing away.

"You must be referring to the old Azula?" Azula chuckled a little and fell back to look up at the late spring clouds. "That's not entirely true…she'll always be with me and I'll have to carry her scars around for the rest of my life, but I know you're referring to me actually being her and that's just not true." Azula turned her head and gazed up at Katara before turning her attention back to the clouds. "She'll always be with me, but I'm the owner of this body now."

Moments passed.

"I guess…I never thought of it that way." Katara said after a pregnant pause.

"I hope, maybe one day, you'll want to know this me, Katara," Azula told her. "And I really am sorry about all the pain my old self caused you."

"I guess this new you isn't so bad." Katara was still being difficult, but the sideways smile she regarded Azula with cleared things up quite nicely. "But, I've still got my eye on you and Aang."

"You don't have to worry about that." Azula laughed. "Aang's heart belongs to you, that much is certain…No brain damaged princess is going to change that."

"…This is still weird." Katara told her.

"I know," Azula agreed. "But, it's kind of fun too."

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

They had only been at the palace for two days before Aang and Katara were due to depart to meet up with the rest of the team at Tower Republic.

It would take approximately two days to get there by Appa if they took limited breaks, and even Aang laughed at the fact that Appa needed the exercise. Katara was content with how things were going with her and Azula at the moment. The previous afternoon—after her talk with Azula— her, Mai, Ursa, and Azula had gone out or tea at a local shop just for the heck of it, and everything seemed to be going well.

Katara was especially surprised at how familial the three of them seemed to be. Azula and her mother acted as if nothing was wrong with them at all—which she had heard things were very rocky between her and her mother before from Zuko—but she supposed that was beauty of having a clean slate, both of them could just start over.

Though, it was still very odd and, frankly, Katara was glad when her and Aang were going to have a little more alone time. She knew that the trip they had getting to the palace was anything but what she wanted. She was going to tell Aang about her infertility at that point, but instead she lost it and ended up ignoring him most of the time.

She decided, though, that with them being alone and all, she could finally just spit it out and deal with the consequences.

That is until…

"Are we ready to go?" Azula called out and had a few bags packed, running up to Aang and Katara happily.

"Uh, we?" Katara echoed, trying not to look as unhappy as she was.

"Oh, um, yeah, Azula's coming with us," Aang smiled nervously as he told his fiancé. Katara's eyebrows fell and she pulled Aang over.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"This kind of was my way of telling you." He said and Katara groaned. "Please don't hate me," Aang pleaded. "Zuko thinks it'll help her branch out and make some more friends, please just be nice."

"Ugh, but I wanted this ride to be just you and me…you know, alone time."

"We had alone time the way over here, Katara," Aang's gaze suddenly fell serious and he began to walk off but now before turning around and saying: "and you ignored me the whole time." He walked away after that, leaving Katara to bask in what he had said while he got last minute confirmation from the generals and Zuko.

Katara didn't know if she was going to tell Aang with Azula riding with them, but she knew she'd have to say something sooner or later.

Or her and Aang might start having some major issues.

Dun Dun Dun…..soap opera style. All this build up to say one thing? Well, what can I say, I like the suspense, plus it's not exactly the easiest thing to tell your fiancé who's in charge of re-populating an extinct race.

Anywho, so there's been quite a lot of natural disasters going on in the Avatar world, and we're about to start touching base with that in this part. But for now, our heroes are off to a little place called Tower Republic, that's sure to be interesting. And….oh my….are Azula and Katara actually kind of getting along? I think so.

Review Responses:

Katsumara: Thanks, and I'm glad the telephone bit made you laugh, I snickered myself as I was writing it. And yes…I think Azula is kind of scared for life, no wonder she wanted to leave XP.

Kimjuni2: Alright, I will let everyone know about any updates I find about the comic. 2012 is certainly going to be exciting for me.

Pengwens: Thanks and, yes, poor zuzu, indeed.

Aangfan: Thank you, I have some even earlier stuff of them in another story called "Fire War Renaissance: Bonus".

Kataanger476: Yay? Sorry I had to make you wait extra for the next chapter, but I did have to pretty much re-type this whole chapter, which it never turns out the same. But I had to take my time so I didn't just give you guys a crappy re-typed chapter. Anyways, I don't want to spoil anything in the future of the story so I won't deny or confirm your prediction, as for the fillerish thing, yes it is a filler, most of the part is going to character and plot build up to part 6, so just hang in there cause I think where it's heading is pretty cool.

Dcp1992: Thank you

Private LL Church: Well I can tell you Katara's secret will be revealed in this part, so just hang in there. As for the comics, I'm excited as well more for that than Korra. I'm still going to watch and probably like Korra a lot, but nothing can ever replace the Gaang, so I'm looking foreward to the comics a lot more than Korra, so I can relate with you there.

Winnow: Awwww, sorry about your schedule I'm in physics honors right now and I hate it, so I can't imagine what AP Physics is like and I'm not even going to get start on calc (that's beyond me). Hang in there. And yeah, not too much stuff going on in these chapters other than build up, so just read and enjoy. And I had a pretty good break, nothing awesome happened, but nothing bad either so I'm not complaining.

Thanks for all the reviews people of the web world! You all are still rocking after all this time!

Next Chapter: Tower Republic
