Chapter Two
When morning came around Katara remembered her dream from the night before. She couldn't think of what to do. She thought that if she told Aang and Sokka what she saw they might freak out on her. But then if she didn't tell them then she could end up living what she saw. She didn't want to live exactly the way that she saw, there were some factors that she actually would except if her dream were to come true.
Katara got dressed and took the time to see what her room was like seeing that she didn't get to last night because she was so tired. The entire room was blue, the curtains, the walls, the rug, the bathroom, the bed set, everything was blue. There were also water tribe relics from both the north and the south tribes. This made Katara feel very much at home. Then she plopped down on the bed and she started to think about all the memories she had at home with her family and friends. But she soon put all of that behind her and thought about what was going to happen in the near future.
She went down to the grand dinning hall. She saw everyone there that she knew and a few that she did not. Of course Sokka was there and was of course eating. Katara quickly thought to herself "why isn't he fat?' She then saw Aang enjoying a bowl of what looked like oatmeal. Then Henshia got up and drug Katara into the room and started to introduce her to the other three people in the room.
"Katara, this is my mother Queen Renshia and my father Penshio" she said as she pointed to them. As she did so Katara bowed and introduced herself. Then a noise came from the other side of the table and Henshia said "And Katara that's my older brother Kenshio" He simply smiled at Katara and waved. Katara knew that he liked her. Then she sat next to Kenshio, because it was the only seat left, besides the one on the other side of Sokka. Katara simply smiled at Kenshio and he said "Hello Katara" She had to admit that she liked him as well. Katara then finally got that dream off her head for the time being. Katara grabbed some fresh mixed fruit, some toast and a scoop of scrambled eggs.
"I see that your one of those healthy type of people" Kenshio said noticing Katara's food choices. "As am I "he said as he knocked his plate of fatty meats to the ground. Suddenly a blue eyed Siberian Husky showed up and started to eat all the food. When the dog was finished he placed the plate back on the table. Kenshio then praised his cheerful companion. HE then grabbed a banana and started to eat it making faces that showed disgust.
"Yeah I have a busy training session today and I don't want to be weighed down by so much food." Katara said trying to impress Kenshio
"Yeah me to" he said standing up and starting to stretch
"Are you a water bender?" Katara asked
"Yep" Kenshio said certainly
"in that case you can join Aang and I in our training session today
"Sounds like a plan, I'll see you later, Katara" HE said and headed out to the frozen ice garden. Katara Smiled and watched him leave. Sokka was listening in to the conversation between his sister and the prince. He was staring at Katara and smirking. Katara looked back at him and simply said "What"
"You know what" Sokka replied "You two were flirting, and I don't like it one little bit" he said suddenly changing to a frown.
"Well nobody asked you" she said calmly and continued "I saw you drooling last night while staring at Henshia"
"Wha oh no don't change the subject" he said while waving his finger
"To late" Katara said then got up and went back to her room. She started to think about her upcoming training session in the gardens. She was so exited she decided to go down to the gardens early.
"Hey Katara" came a voice from behind her. She turned around and saw Aang.
"Oh, hey Aang, what are you doing?" she answered
"nothing much just exploring the castle before going out to the gardens What are you doing?" Aang asked
"Oh I'm going to go see Appa" she lied. She didn't want Aang to follow her to the garden because she knew that he liked her. "yeah I think that he's a little lonely in the stable with only Momo." she continued
"O.K. see you at our session" Aang said and continued on his way.
Katara took a deep breathe then made her way to the garden. When she got to the gardens she heard two guys talking, one seemed familiar. She made her way through the dead, icy bushy labyrinth. After a few minutes of walking she saw two figures at a fountain. They started to talk and she ducked down. She didn't mean to, but she couldn't help but eavesdrop. She realized the two people were Prince Kenshio and one of his friends.
"Kenshio why did you want to see me so urgently?" The guy asked
"This girl that I like invited me to a training session with her and the Avatar, and as you know I'm not the worlds greatest water bender, so I was wondering, if you could think of a few tricks to teach me so I don't look like a complete fool in font of Katara and Aang." Kenshio explained
"Hold up you fell for the Avatar's best friend? What could you be thinking ? She has to be way out of you league if she hangs with the Avatar. And man they have to be pretty powerful. I mean think you don't even like bending since all the warriors left for war when you were three." The guy said while weaving water from the fountain all over the place
"Well lets start with all your questions starting with the first one you asked so…Yes, I think she's hot, funny and nice, she might be out of my league but I don't care, I don't know how powerful either of them are with water bending, your right I don't like bending but I'm willing to try it again." he said all of this with one breath and now he was breathing hard and trying to bend the water. And Kenshio's friend started to laugh really hard. Kenshio just frowned.
Katara thought about what Kenshio just said and then she couldn't help herself she just stood up and walked around the corner, Kenshio's friend not noticing. Kenshio through a rock at him and he stopped laughing and turned around. The expression on his face looked like he was about to say ' Oh hell' but he said nothing.
"Hey Katara" Kenshio started off "Umm, how much of that did you hear?" Kenshio said nervously, then looked at his friend. He smiled at Katara, waved and ran out of the labyrinth.
" So you like me that much, that you were going to take up bending again? A little piece of my opinion, I think you need a little help." she started
"I" Kenshio started Katara put her finger on his lips to stop him
"I would be happy to teach you some basics before Aang shows up. Knowing him he got lost so we got some time." She kissed him an the cheek., and he turned a really bright red. Katara giggled "and by the way your not out of my league." she smiled and started to teach him the basics.
In the mean time Aang was trying to get to the gardens and was lost. Just as Katara had predicted. About half hour later Aang made it to the beginning of the labyrinth and made his way through. He came to the fountain and saw Katara and Kenshio practicing.
"Hey Aang your late but that's ok because so is the instructor" Katara said just as she said this someone with a cloak came around the corner. His face was covered. He took off the hood and Katara gaped. She ran up to the man and hugged him. He hugged her back.
"Hello Katara" the man said
"Hello father" Katara said
"Father?" Aang said
"Yes Aang 'Father'" Katara said then asked her father "What are you doing here? I thought you were in the Earth Kingdom!" Katara said still hanging onto her father
"Well princess Henshira contacted me saying that Aang here needed a great water bender to train him soon before Solzens Comet, so here I am, and where the heck is Sokka? I thought that he would be protecting you from absolutely nothing."
"he's probably eating" and she was right because at that very moment Sokka came around the corner eating a mango.
"Hey what's up?" he asked not noticing his father standing next to him "What are you doing?"
"I'm teaching them water bending" said a voice behind Sokka
"Dad!" he yelped and hugged his father
After a while everyone cooled down and they started to bend. Aang was the best, then came Katara and then Kenshio. Kenshio was trying and Katara had to give him props for that. It got dark soon and they went in to eat. At the table Sokka Katara and their father got reunited, Everyone else listened in on the conversation pretending that they knew what was going on.
Katara excused herself from the table and Kenshio excused himself about five minutes later, as to not look suspicious that he was going to see Katara. He knocked of the door and she told him to come in. She was on the bed in her pajamas writing in her diary. She closed the book as soon as he walked in and hid the journal under a pillow. He sat next to her.
"Hey ummm thanks for teaching me. And I hope you know that I really like you." he said nervously. He gave her a kiss on the cheek and left the room.
