Sorry this chapter took a while, but here it is. Enjoy.

Zuko was anxious to find what he had to do for her to say yes.

"You must end this war." said Katara. Zuko was shocked. Did she really say that?

"Did you say to end the war?" asked Zuko.

"Yes. It will test your love, loyalty, bravery, courage, strength, determination, and skill." replied Katara.

"I will start now, then." said Zuko.

"No. It's late in the evening. Let's go to sleep first." suggested Katara.

Katara and Zuko kissed each other good night and went to their sleeping bags.

After 10 good hours of sleeping, the sun rose, along with Zuko. Katara was already up this time because she couldn't sleep. She had a long nap the day before.

"Are you ready to go?" asked Katara.

"Yes. We'll ride the flying bison." replied Zuko.

They ran to Appa and hopped on him. When Zuko said the magic words he went flying. While flying, Katara leaned on Zuko. He enjoyed it when she did that.

Meanwhile, Zula was starting to think that swimming wasn't a good idea. "Maybe we should stop for a day." suggested Zula. Sokka was glad because he was tired. But little did Zula know what this rest might do to her in the future.

A few days later:

Zuko saw people in the water. Why it was Zula, Sokka, and Aang. He decided he would just fly on. She wouldn't notice him and after he killed Ozai, just imagine the look on her face, when it's him on the throne!

After another day, Zuko and Katara reached the Fire Nation coast. "I don't think you're welcome here, and especially not a water peasant." said a guard. Zuko kicked him unconscious. They walked up the royal walkway to the palace.

On his way in, he knocked out all the guards. Before entering the throne room, Katara decided to stay outside. Zuko entered the throne room..

"Why are you here without the Avatar?" asked Ozai.

"Because I don't want the Avatar. There's someone else far more important." replied Zuko.

"Who? A girl? I do not approve." said Ozai.

"I don't care what you approve or not. I realize now that you don't love me, so I don't love you." said Zuko.

"It took you that long to figure that out?" asked Ozai.

Zuko had enough of his father's attitude. It was time to do what he came for. "I challenge you to an Agni Kai!" yelled Zuko.

"Very well, but last time you didn't even bother to fight me." said Ozai.

"Then you will see how much I've changed." said Zuko. They went to the Agni Kai arena. People saw them and followed. Word quickly spread of the Agni Kai.

Meanwhile, Zula, Sokka, and Aang just made it to the palace. When they reached the throne room, they saw a sign that said "Gone to the Agni Kai Arena".

Zula was shocked. She saw Zuko and her father fighting. Zuko fought with fire and a sword. He stabbed Ozai in the stomach and he fell on the ground. Zuko gave him a look that meant "do you surrender", but Ozai with blood running from his stomach and mouth, got up and pulled out the sword.

Zuko unsheathed his other sword and kicked Ozai in the crotch. Ozai dropped his sword. Zuko knew what he had to do, but he felt hesitated to do so. Then he remembered Katara. He'd do anything for her. He took his sword and swung it at Ozai's head.The crowd gasped then cheered.

Katara heard it from where she was, and ran to the arena. She saw Zuko remove the crown from Ozai's decapitated head and place it on his. Katara ran up and hugged Zuko.

Zuko said, "This is Katara form the Water Tribes. She said she would marry me if I ended the war. Now that I am fire lord, I hereby end this war." The crowd cheered, except Zula. She was jealous and angry.

"Now, I ask you in full view of this crowd, will you marry me?" asked Zuko.

"Yes." reeplied Katara. They kissed as Zuko handed her the necklace.
