American Firebender's Promise

A/N: thanks for the reviews! They make me want to write so much faster! I'm glad I'm not the only one who is dying to see the season premiere. Sorry for taking so long, but I had a lot of homework!

Chapter 1:

Zuko was looking at a calendar. Zuko found out that he had been gone for a month. While he was away, he found out that the Fire Nation had attacked the Northern Water Tribe. Parts of the tribe were rebuilding, but most was intact. Aang had mastered waterbending, but Katara was still learning. Zuko left the room he was staying in. He walked out into cool night. Aang only had little over 3 months left to master the elements. Zuko walked out onto the bridge. He stood over looking the calm water. It had been 3 weeks since he had last seen May. He could still picture her smiling face. Sometimes it seemed like she was standing next to Zuko, but as a ghost. Zuko sighed. He missed her. Zuko was wearing a blue shirt and baggy blue pants. He had been trying to go to sleep, but he just couldn't tonight. He had put on a shirt before coming out there.

May was outside. She had planed on camping out tonight for an extra credit project. She had set up a tent, DVD player, air bed, radio, clock, and most importantly she brought her laptop. May was inside her tent with Hurricane laying next to her. May was wearing a pair of jeans, black t-shirt with the words "Tennis Player" in gold, and had a blue jacket on. As usual her hair was up in a ponytail. May got out of the tent and walked over to the pond. She looked up at the one star in the cloudy sky.. She let out a sigh.

"If there was one thing I could wish for right now; I wish I could go back to the Avatar world" said May. May closed her eyes.

May opened her eyes to see the Northern Water Tribe. May looked around and on the bridge was none other than Zuko.

"Zuko!" May said. Zuko turned around and saw May. May ran up and hugged Zuko. "I've missed you so much!"

"I've miss you, too." said Zuko. May let go of Zuko. "What took you so long?"

"I came here the fastest I could!" said May. "I was beginning to think I'd never see you again, Zuko!"

"Let's get out of the cold first." said Zuko. May nodded.

Inside had the Water Tribe theme. Zuko sat down on he bed. May sat down beside him.

"How long have we known each other May?" asked Zuko.

"4 ½ months." said May. "Why?"

"Just wondering." said Zuko. "So how have you been?"

"Okay," said May. "Not a lot of things have happened. You?"

"Fine." said Zuko. "Things have been to calm."

"Does that mean I have to disturb the peace?" said May. "If it does, then you gave me the best job!"

"Good," said Zuko. "We need someone to disturb the peace." May shoved Zuko to the ground. "You know I always win."

"Not this time!" said May. "I've practiced!"

"We'll see if it paid off!" said Zuko getting up. Zuko pushed May. May pushed Zuko. Zuko grabbed May's wrist as he fell onto the bed. May was pulled down with him. May fell down next to Zuko.

"I forgot how much fun it was to fight with you!" said May.

"I leave for 3 weeks and you forget about me!" said Zuko.

"I could never forget you Zuko!" said May. "Not after all we been threw."

Aang, Katara, and Sokka had the room next to Zuko's.

"I think I hear Zuko talking to someone." said Sokka.

"Who would he be talking to?" asked Aang.

"Maybe his girlfriend May!" said Sokka.

"I think it's good Zuko has a friend that is a firebender." said Katara. "And if you think he is talking to someone; why don't you go see who." Sokka got up and left the room.

Sokka was just outside Zuko's room. Sokka peeked his head in to see who Zuko was talking to. It was May. She was sitting next Zuko.

"If it isn't girlfriend and boyfriend." said Sokka taking a step in the room.

"Oh, shut up Sokka!" said May.

"What are you doing peasant?" asked Zuko angrily.

"Sokka who are you talking to?" asked Aang coming in. "hi May!"

"Hi Aang." said May.

"So, what is the couple up to?" asked Sokka.

"Oh, should I bring up Suki?" said May.

"Suki?" asked Zuko.

"Oh yes, Suki." said May.

"You be quite May!" said Sokka.

"What about Suki?" asked Aang.

"Just a little song." said May.

"Song?" asked Sokka.

"Sokka and Suki sitting in a tree. K, I, S, S, I, N, G." sang May. "First comes love. Second comes marriage. Then comes Sokka pushing the baby carriage!"

"HEY!" yelled Sokka who was a deep red color!

"What's the K, I, S, S, I, N, G, part?" asked Aang.

"It spells the word kissing!" said May. Sokka came over to May and rolled up his sleeve. "KATARA!"

"Oh no," said Sokka as Katara came into the room.

"Sokka what did I tell you about fighting?" said Katara.

"You going to get beat up by your little sister!" said Zuko.

"But, Katara." said Sokka. Katara grabbed Sokka by the ear and started dragging him out of the room.

"and Hi, May." said Katara as she left the room with Sokka. Aang left the room to see what was going to happen to Sokka.

"Where did you come up with that?" asked Zuko.

"Everyone at our school knows it." said May. "Did you see the look on his face? That was classic!"

"Yeah," said Zuko. "We better get going to bed. We've got to get up at sunrise so we can practice Firebending."

"Where am I suppose to sleep anyway." asked May a little worried of what the answer might be.

"And before you say anything," said Zuko. "There is a sleeping mat in the closet."

"Good." said May with a sigh of relief. May got up and pulled a sleeping mat out of the closet along with a blanket and pillow. May rolled the mat our by the window. Zuko turned out the candle. May got under her blanket. "Night, Zuko." said May. The room was dark. Zuko took off his shirt. He got in bed. The night had started out boring, but now it seemed like everything was in place.
