Chapter 10: Wedding Day
It was the day of the wedding and all the servants were getting Katara ready. Her dress was royal blue and it was beautiful. The neck part was sheer, with glitter on it. The rest had small flames at the bottom. Within twenty to thirty minutes Katara was ready. Sora walked in and gasped when she saw her daughter.
"Katara, are you ready to become the Princess of the Earth Kingdom?" asked Sora.
"Yes." asked Katara.
"Well, lets go." said Sora. She walked her daughter out to the doors and Sokka was waiting there for her. Sora smiled and said "Sokka will give you away. When the door opens Sokka will know what to do." Sora smiled again and left.
Sokka turns to his sister and says "Katara you don't have to do this. Mom, Aang, Iroh and I all know who your heart belongs to."
"Sokka I can't back down now, it's too late." She said.
"Katara, it is not too late. You can lead your own destiny." Sokka said. Katara just looked at him and sighed.
"Prince Zuko, how come you are not ready?" asked Uncle Iroh.
"Uncle, I can't watch Katara getting married. Because in my heart I know that I am not the man Katara is getting married too. I will get jealous and then I will ruin the wedding." answered Prince Zuko.
"Fine have it your way." Uncle Iroh said. As he began to walk out of the room he said "Prince Zuko, I am sorry that you feel that way." Then he left. Prince Zuko sighed and said "Katara, I love you back, more than anything."
The doors opened where Katara and Sokka was waiting at. He grabbed arm and they started walking towards the isle. Katara took a deep breath and started thinking to herself:
Heart don't fail me now
Courage don't desert me
Don't turn back, now that we are here
People always say
Life is full of choices
No one ever mentions fear
Or how the world can seem so vast
On a journey to the future
When Katara, finished thinking this to herself, they were already up to the altar. Prince Haru held out his hand and Katara took his hand. And the priest started and Prince Zuko walked away from the window.
"Do you, Earth Nation Prince Haru, take Katara the Water Princess as your beloved bride, in sickness and in health, in rich and in poor, in good times and bad, till death do you part?"
"I do." said Prince Haru.
"Do you, Katara the Water Princess, take Earth Nation Prince Haru as your beloved husband, in sickness and in health, in rich and in poor, in good times and bad, till death do you part?"
Katara took a deep breath and finally spoke. "I, I" Katara looked at Prince Haru and again she finally spoke. "I can't." She turned to Prince Haru and looked him in the eye.
"I am really sorry, Haru. I can't do it, my heart belongs to someone else. Will you forgive me?"
"Katara, I knew you wouldn't go through with this. I see the way you look at him and smile at him. For once Katara you stopped me from doing the right thing. I am in love with another. I chose you, because my father said I had to get married." said Haru. He leaned in and gave her kiss on the forehead and said "Go get him."
Katara ran back into castle. She searched everywhere for him and finally she knew where he was. She ran as fast as she could to Prince Zuko's room. She turned the corner and saw him, he was sitting down on the chair, writing something.
She was standing in the doorway and said "Prince Zuko." He looked up and saw Katara standing there. He stood up and stared at her beauty.
"Zuko, I am sorry. I couldn't go through the wedding; because I realized that my heart belongs to you. So I ask, can we be lovers and not friends?"
He smiled and held his arms out. Katara ran into his arms and hugged him. They looked at each other and they kissed passionately. But they were interrupted by Uncle Iroh and Sora.
"Now that is what I wanted to see. It took them long enough and it looks like our plan work." said Uncle Iroh.
"Yes, indeed." Sora said.
"What do you mean, plan?" asked Zuko.
"The wedding, of course; we made it seem like Katara had to get married, but we fool you guys. It was all a plan for you guys to finally realize that you guys love each other." said Uncle Iroh.
"Don't worry about Prince Haru and the guests. They were all of our maids and he left after you said no." Sora said.
"Uncle Iroh and I will leave you two along. But under on condition." Sora said.
"And what is that?" asked Katara.
"That, you bring me many nieces and nephews." said Uncle Iroh. They all looked at him. "What, I am just kidding." He said.
"The real condition is that you can't have any kids, until you guys are married." Sora said and they left.
"Katara can I ask you something?" asked Zuko.
"Sure what is it?"
"Will you be my wife, after this war is over?"
Katara smiled and said "As long as I am with you." Zuko hugged her and kissed her.
But what they didn't know was that Katara and Prince Zuko, was in danger. The war was far from over!
