"What had happened?" Tao asked. "She must have touched the Hudingo flower. It gives her powers she could not have imagined. More power than she has now as an Avatar. She will have to adapt to much more as of now," Saka turned to Katara that was in their hut now, "Katara? Wake up, Katara." Katara stirred. She took a large breath and opened her eyes.
"How are you feeling?" Tao asked gently.
"I don't know. I don't know if I am hurt, or happy or sad or sick. How do I look?"
"Just fine. You had lost your fever. Tell me, do you feel powerful?" Saka asked.
"Uh, no. I feel basically the same. Where did that flower come from?"
"It doesn't matter. You can go back to sleep. We'll wake you in the morning." With not objection, Katara put her head down, but she couldn't get to sleep that easily. While she was unconscious, she saw Batman. He was fighting someone in a villainous costume. Alone side Batman was a boy in a red, yellow, and black costume, but Katara didn't recognize him. She finally did fall asleep with the mysterious boy on her mind.
Morning came and Katara felt much better. She decided to go outside and feed Bore Gudum, the flying bison. She had adapted well to Alkian lifestyle. No more electronics or running water, but that didn't mean that she didn't miss them… dearly.
She finished and bent down to the nearby pond to wash her face and screamed. Tao came and frantically asked, "What? What's wrong?" Katara looked at him and he just looked her. Saka came and looked at Katara and immediately went inside the hut to come back outside with a large, brown book.
Saka began skimming down the large and said, "Yes, this is normal."
"Suddenly having green eyes is normal?"
"Eye color changing, hair color changing, anything is possible. You will also develop powers over time. All the powers you soon discover will be just the beginning. This is amazing. You can transfer your powers, give them up for a short time, and do some meditation to increase your power, and develop strong, useful powers, as you grow older. " Katara heard this was finally calmed down. So what if her eyes had gone from dark brown to jade green overnight?She looked at her reflection again and thought to herself I don't look that bad. I guess I could live with my green eyes. Her reflection did indeed show her with her dark hair and vibrant jade green eyes, which didn't look bad at all.
She remembered Tao and looked at him. He was still looking at her.
"Tao? Are you alright?" Katara asked.
"You look—beautiful," Tao answered, as if just realizing it. Katara blushed and when Tao realized that he said that out loud, he walked away quite quickly. Katara didn't see him for the rest of the day.
As time went on, Katara developed powers. One day, for instance, she went around the whole day invisible. She developed powers such as running extremely fast that she will one day be as fast as light, power bolts, controlling things with her mind, hearing someone else's thoughts, invisibility, the power to grow through solid objects and the ability to fly. She had some trouble with flying though. Even though it was the most incredible feeling, she had always been afraid of heights. Thus, she perfected her flying power over the course of the next two years.
Even though Katara was not on Earth anymore, she read many books about Earth technology. If she had been anywhere near a computer, she would have known everything about them and how they work. The same applies to building cars or weapons. Katara was most amazed at Saka's collection of Earthly books.
"I know much about Earth, but I would never dare to live there," Saka once said.
Life on Alkia was fine, until everything changed.
