Epilogue:Ten Years Later
Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar. I do own Yoshiro, Michi, Yan, Karo, Kai and Reiki.
It's been a while. Sorry to say, but after this, it's over. Done, finished, finito. I know, I had loads of fun writing this, but all good fanfictions must come to an end. I hope you appreciate this epilogue/chapter.
Please, don't ask if I am going to make a sequel. Unless you have a good reason why, until then, the chance of an Earth And Fire sequel is very, very bleak.
Oh, and Yoshiro's not married. This is Aang/Katara, Sokka/Suki (you don't see a lot of those) and Zuko with another minor OC. If you don't like the couples (meaning if you like Katara/Zuko or any other) then deal with it. Don't flame me.
That is all. Now enjoy the last chapter/epilogue of Earth And Fire!
Yoshiro was getting ready to meet her friend Katara after ten years.
"I'm almost there!" Yoshiro, now almost twenty-six, ran to the door of her home and opened the door.
"Hello Yoshiro!" A long brown haired woman smiled.
"Hi Katara! Is that really you? You've changed so much!" Yoshiro smiled.
"I see you still don't have your right arm," Katara said.
Yoshiro looked at it.
"Yep. But I've been fine."
Yoshiro welcomed in Katara, and saw a boy and girl walk in.
"And who are these?" Yoshiro asked, raising an eyebrow.
Katara laughed.
"They're my children, Kai and Reiki. Kai's four, and he can only waterbend. Reiki, she is six. She can airbend."
"So…you married Aang?" Yoshiro recognized Reiki's gray eyes.
"Yes. I did," Katara smiled.
"How's Mr. Pervert?" Yoshiro remembered Sokka.
"He's fine. Proposed to Suki two years ago. She accepted. Their wedding was marvelous, but Sokka tripped over someone's foot and…well…he broke his nose!" Katara laughed.
Yoshiro grinned. That was something Sokka would do.
"They haveone year old twin boys, and I think their names are Yan and Karo."
"Glad to hear everyone's alright."
Yoshiro poured some tea for Katara and poured some milk and cookies for her children.
"So, what have you been up to?"
Yoshiro was silent, then answered,
"As you see, once Aang defeated Fire Lord Ozai, he resigned and gave the throne to Zuko, obviously. And you know what?"
"What?" Katara asked.
"He lifted my banishment decree!" Yoshiro grinned.
"But why?" Katara asked, confused.
Yoshiro shrugged.
"All that time I was on his ship, and when he was on mine, I guess he wasn't so bad at all. Even if he was immature, annoying and obsessive. And didn't care for tea," Yoshiro smiled.
"I heard he's married now. I think her name was Michi," Katara nodded.
"Well, I wouldn't know, I live in the Earth Kingdom now," Yoshiro replied.
"I know."
Yoshiro sighed as she sat down in a chair and said,
"I am so glad that you came. I was feeling lonely," Yoshiro said.
"Well, it's been ten years. Of course you would," Katara said, matter-of-factly.
"Yes, it has. But it feels like yesterday when I met you guys," Yoshiro nodded.
"Mama, Kai keeps pulling my braid!"
"I did not! Reiki is lying!"
Yoshiro and Katara looked at the two squabbling children. Yoshiro had to stifle her laughter.
"Stop quarreling you two."
Katara turned her attention to Yoshiro with a 'I got to go before they kill each other' look.
"I know. I understand," Yoshiro said.
"It was so wonderful seeing you again, Yoshiro! We should meet up more often!" Katara waved as she went out the door with Kai and Reiki.
"Maybe next time you could bring along Aang, Sokka and Suki!" Yoshiro waved back with her left hand.
"We should! Bye!" Katara waved, as she and her children walked out of sight.
Yoshiro closed the door as she sat down in a chair and laid back.
I am so glad that my friends are okay. I'm still thankful that I'm alive.
Yoshiro went into her room and turned out her candlelight using her firebending.
Goodnight…General Xokku….goodnight Mother and Father…
She pulled the covers over her as she soon fell asleep.
I cannot wait to meet my other friends…I hope it will be sometime soon.
The End
S.E.: This is one of the best stories I have ever done. Hands down.
Chi: I can't believe it's the end!
Natasha: Aren't you going to write any spin offs, S.E.?
S.E.: -looks around- No. Unless I get a review telling me why.
Chi: So you're not going to write a sequel...
S.E.: Most likely.
Natasha: I really enjoyed this!
