A/N Okay, and here we go with chapter number 5. I believe in this one there's gonna be lots more Zutara action and Aang's gonna find out that his feelings for Katara will help him learn Firebending.

"Your turn" Zuko told Aang. Zuko went over and stood next to Katara. He made sure his arm brushed up against hers. Katara swooned.

"Okay. I can do this. Piece of cake." Aang said. He positioned himself in front of the fire. He took a deep breath and mimicked Zuko's actions. But nothing happened. "What happened?"

"Absolutely nothing." Sokka said flatly.

"Sokka!" Katara said, exasperated.

'What happened, Zuko?" Aang asked.

"You need to put more feeling into it." Zuko told Aang. "Show more anger."

"But I'm really not an angry person." Aang told him.

"Well get angry then." Zuko said, staring at Aang fiercely.

Aang thought about getting angry. "I don't think I can do it. I can't think of anything that would make me angry."

"Well then I guess you just can't become a Firebender and live up to everyone's expectations of you being the Avatar." Zuko said with an unfathomable expression on his face.

"I guess I'll just have to keep on trying then." Aang said through gritted teeth. And that's just what he did. Aang repeated the steps Zuko showed him over and over again, but each time the outcome was the same. "That's it. I give up. I guess the world will just have to survive without the Avatar."

"Aang, you can't give up." Katara told him. "Without you, the Fire Nation will take over all other Kingdoms. The people need you, Aang. Please keep trying."

"Okay, okay. I'll keep trying." Aang said unhappily. He knew inside many people would suffer if he didn't defeat the Fire Lord. It sucks to be the Avatar. Why is such an important task left up to me? I'm just a kid. Katara will give me support, Aang thought, looking over to her.

Wait. Why is she looking at Zuko? Why is Zuko standing so close to her? What's up with that? What are they doing? Why are they smiling like that? What are they talking about? Aang was really worried. Am I losing Katara? No! What are they doing? Why is she holding his arm? Stop! Stop! No! Don't brush her hair out of her face! I brush her hair out of her face! That's my job! Mine! Leave her alone! She doesn't even like you! She likes me! No... She does like me, doesn't she? I mean, come on, she has to like me. I told her I would protect her, and she said… wait… what did she say? She said, "Thanks, Aang." Doesn't that mean something? Doesn't that mean like, "Thanks Aang. I love you too?" Come on, Katara! Stop it! No! Stop whispering with Zuko! Katara! I thought… I thought you loved… me.

A tear came to Aang's eye. I'll show her. I'll show them all. I'll show them I can be a great Firebender; way better than Zuko, anyway. Zuko doesn't deserve her! I deserve her! I love her! I LOVE KATARA! They want to see anger; I'll give them anger! This one goes straight to you, Zuko!

And with that last thought, Aang jabbed the air with his fist. Fire came shooting out of his hand and towards the sticks that had been patiently waiting on the ground. Zuko's fire was nothing compared to the one Aang just created. The only one that seemed to notice what happened was Sokka, who, like the sticks, had also been patiently waiting on the ground. Sokka stood up, his mouth open wide. He didn't believe what just happened.

"Aang!" He said. "You did it!" He sounded relieved.

Katara and Zuko looked over to Aang, and then to the fire.

"Wow. That's beautiful." Katara said, looking over at Zuko.

Zuko nodded towards her and smiled. Then he turned to Aang with the same unfathomable expression he had on before. Aang really couldn't tell if Zuko was pleased or angry with him.

"Well done." Was all he said.

"Aang, that was great!" Katara said and walked over to him.

"Not like you were watching." Aang said, looking at his shoes.

"What do you mean? Of course I was watch-"

'No!" Aang cut her off. 'You weren't. You were too busy watching Zuko."

Katara was speechless.

"I- I didn't think… I- I mean, I didn't know…" She was at a loss for words.

"Save it Katara. Just go talk about it with Zuko. You guys must talk about everything now." Aang shot at her. He walked towards Sokka.

"What was that all about?" Sokka asked him.

"Nothing." Aang snarled, and walked past the tent and into the desert.

In the tent (As Aang walks into the desert)

"I'm worried about him." Katara told Iroh (who had woken up as Katara walked into the tent, followed by Zuko and Sokka.) She turned to the others. "I don't understand why he got so mad."

"What? Who's mad?" Sokka said, clueless.

"Aang really scared me back there." Katara was worried about him.

"He scared you? How?" Sokka asked his sister.

"I mean, I don't think I've ever seen him like this before." Katara said, biting her lip.

"Like what? Are we still talking about Aang?" Sokka cut in.

"What do you think Zuko?" Katara asked him.

"What? Why are you asking him? Why don't I get to express my opinions?" Sokka said, outraged.

"I don't know what to say. All I know is that the anger that he seemed to find really helped him with his Firebending." Zuko replied.

"Yes, but it really destroyed anything he ever had with Katara." Sokka said in a mocking tone.

Everyone looked at Sokka when he said that.

"What do you mean "anything he ever had with me"?" Katara asked her brother

"Oh, come on, Katara. Everybody knows Aang likes you. You should have seen the way he was smiling at you the other night. He's in love with you, Katara; he really, really is." Sokka told her.

Katara just stood there, dumbfounded.

'He- He's in love with me?" Katara repeated.

"Yes, Katara." Sokka said softly.

"Oh my gosh." Katara said to herself. "I can't believe this." She was thinking of Aang, looking around the room. Everyone was looking at her. She turned around and remembered Zuko. "Oh my gosh." She said again.

"What's wrong Katara?" Zuko asked soothingly.

"I- I just, I don't know." She said and ran from the tent towards the open desert.

A/N Ok, so how did you like that one? I tried my best, so please review! Tell me what you thought of the previous chapters and give me some ideas for the next few. Thanks!
