A.N. – so I mainly write Teen Titan stories, but I am absolutely in love with this show, and I love the stories on the Avatar, so I decided to write one. So this is my first Avatar fic so I would really like reviews on how you think it is going. And where it should go, basically what you think…that would be very nice. O and this is going to have chapters but I expect there will only be like 4. Anyways so this story takes place before the last couple of episodes, only with a few changes:
Chapter 1
Thinking and Bending
Katara was sitting on the steps of their house they had gotten in Ba Sing Se, thinking of the recent events: How they came to be there, and where Appa might be. Things had changed since they first started out; Aang had pretty much mastered waterbending, and was quickly grasping earthbending. All that was left was for Aang to learn firebending. Where would she find one? It was bad enough that they were still in Ba Sing Se, where none even mentioned the war. So where the hell was she supposed to find a firebender? Disgruntled and fed-up Katara felt like she needed some cheering up. Walking instinctively toward Lake Laogui. (A.N.- ok so if the lake is spelled wrong…sorry I had no idea how to spell it) Her thoughts wandered as she reached the lake. She and Sokka had been through so much since they found Aang. They'd met so many people and seen so much, but the one person who stuck out in her mind was the constant source of Aang's distress, Prince Zuko. Though he put them through an insane amount of trouble, she couldn't help but wonder why he was doing all this. His sister Azula, she was trying to capture Aang as well, but she was just evil…but there was something about Zuko. He'd let them go a few times, she could see the compassion behind the pain in his eyes, compassion; something his sister lacked. That is what made the two siblings different. She continued along the beach lost in her thoughts, picking up a stick here and there without thinking. Her gaze fell on the water, the water, it was a constant source of comfort to her. She knelt down and began to draw the waterbending symbol in the sand, she titled her head to the side feeling something was missing. Next to her people's symbol she drew another, one she didn't expect to draw. The Fire Nation insignia. Again Katara's thoughts drifted to that one Fire Nation Prince, to that day with the pirates…
I'll save you from the pirates.
Zuko's words echoed in her head. She just had to steal that stupid scroll…it was supposed to help her and Aang learn waterbending faster, but all it did was get her tied up to a tree surrounded by a bunch of dirty pirates and Prince who would probably stop at nothing to get what he wanted. She remembered how close he had gotten to her. His voice was not as threatening as its par usual. He leaned in close to her, his hot breath tickling the nape of her neck. The tone in his voice was strange, almost flirty and teasing. Yet at the same time it was laced with concern. At least she thought so. Maybe he's not such a bad guy…I mean yeah he's been an pain in the ass to Aang and well all of us, but there is just something about him. I wonder where is he right now, is he close to where we are? Katara let her thoughts drift about here and there, until finally she decided that she needed to take her mind off all these unwelcoming thoughts of enemies, war and finding a firebender to teach Aang. Katara removed her robe (A.N: remember there are still a few layers underneath the robe.) and waded into the water. The cool water felt good against her skin. The sun had begun to set; the sky was illuminated with brilliant colors, the hues of pink and orange swirled together; each one balancing and complimenting the other. She ran her hands through the water, loving how the cool water felt between her fingers. She raised her arms beginning her bending moves. She began with slow movements and made elegant forms with the water. Her movements evoked the feel of flowing water; she let herself go and got lost in her movements. This is what she loved, this is what made her happy; being in the water, bending. But she couldn't help but wonder if this was the only thing that could make her happy…then a certain prince popped into her head.
I wonder where he is right now? A figure appeared out behind the trees….he was closer than she thought.
so yeah reviews would be nice :-)
