(A/N) So I´m writing this chapter to 1) have one 2)give you my OC 3) have something to fill that hole of my next one and last but not least 4) to give you something to read.

Credits to does who have reviewed!

Sweetness123: Anytime soon )

PolskaGirl: I will. Thanks

NewInTheSun14: I´m glad you liked it. But the things I do can´t be called art at all D

miss-katara: I´ll try

Alchemist Astrid: Oh, thank you. I´m glad. I love doing stuff like that. happysmile

Dakyu:Don´t worry, I´m blaming myself for the grammar mistakes

TwilightSnowStar:Thank you!

Keke Koorime:That´s sweet of you saying that.

By the way, I´m searching for someone who would be so nice and look over the spelling errors and tell me them. I would really apprechiate it since I suck at grammar...

Anyways, don't be mad at me for my OC. But I'll use her to describe the situation at the gang. By the way, this fic really hasn't a time. Like, how can Zuko still have a ship, not being followed by Azula, and Toph being in the gang? That's impossible!

Now drum I present to you

Chapter four: No escape from feelings

There was a knock on the door. I was just finishing cleaning my hands (A/N: Katara didn't kill anyone) when Iroh (his voice is easy to recognize) asked "Can I come in?"

"Sure." I said as cheerful as ever.

As Iroh was walking in he asked "Miss Katara, would you like to play a round Pai Sho with me?"

Pai Sho´ was the game Zuko told me about. The rules aren't that difficult to remember, but no one has beaten Iroh, yet. Zuko also mentioned that Iroh uses the Lotus Tile a lot. So if I...

"I take the challenge."

Smiling I followed the retired General up to the deck, where he already had set up the game. I watched him carefully as he moved the tiles and when I had my chance, I skipped the Lotus Tile of the board. Iroh may have seemed cheerful, but in that moment he had a surprised expression written in his eyes. With this move I had made Iroh unsure and since lost his old tactic, he had to find a new one before I win.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

I came back from meditating when I saw that Katara had beaten my Uncle Iroh. She was the only one who has ever managed to do that.

My Uncle's expression was unreadable but suddenly he was very joyful.

And I was very confused.

Suddenly I knew my Uncle saw her as a challenge. So he wouldn't let her go until he knew how to beat her.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

First I saw a baffled Iroh, then a confused Zuko. It was hilarious and I had to control myself very hard not to begin to laugh.

Suddenly the Generals expression changed and he looked like he was going to burst out laughing, too. Then we looked at each other and I couldn't hold it any longer and, lucky for me, neither did Iroh.

Zuko looked at us as if we were nuts. But I didn't care at that moment.

Unexpected, the Dragon of the West stood up and asked me "Miss Katara, I think it is time to find a town."

"For what!" Zuko asked, his voice underlined with confusion. I looked to Iroh in wonder.

"Miss Katara needs new clothes and I need some Ginseng tea. After all, she can't wear those clothes forever."

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

(A/N: Yay, shopping time! Me shopping victim)

After three hours of my Uncles tea hunt, he finally thought he had enough.

But the biggest tour was still ahead of us.

I was so excited. Sarcasm was never so strong.

After ten minutes walking Uncle found the tailor he wanted to spend some money for the waterbender. I didn´t went inside because clothes shopping is girl stuff.

What seemed liked an eternety later they came out with at least fourteen boxes.

Uncle stopped at a weapon shop and went inside leaving me and a very confused Katara behind.

While waiting, the water tribe girl was trying to beginn a conversation. I didn´t listend until she said something about electricity of lightning.

"Stop, what did you just say?"

She rolled her eyes but repeated herself "I just said that your uncle told me that waterbending is similar to the ability of firebenders to control the electricity of lightning and that firebenders normaly ignore that fact and do it the wrong way."

"Wait, do you mean that lightningbending is the same style as waterbending?"

"Yes, that´s excactly what I mean." Uncle told me when he stept outside giving a bow, about twenty arrows and broadswords to Katara. (A/N: Later...)

"What are these weapons for?"

"A trade." My Uncle said smiling.

I don´t like that smile."What trade?"

"Katara is going to teach you waterbending, while you teach her to handle broadswords."

"She isn´t even allowed to teach me..."

"Actually, I am. I am a master waterbender, you know. And besides, what else should we do searching Aang?"

"You mean your telling us where the Avatar is going?"

"Do I have another choise?"

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

I was walking through the forest when I saw what I´ve been searching for – the avatar.

How rude of me, I forgot to explain who I am.

My name is Yèrì. I´ve got sandy, sholder long hair and ocean blue eyes. My skin has the tan of a firebenders and I have the bouncy walk of an airbenders. I´m not just a fiveteen year old girl with curly hair, an black robe and a green bandana, no, I´m able to bend all four elements, talk to animals and talk to people that a) are spirits or b) far away.

I´m the reincaned spirit of the thirteens avatar and at great wars, I reapear again. I got killed during a trip in spirit world, but my friend called Yué gave the spirit her live so that I won´t be stopping the avatar cyclus. Now I have to help Avatar Aang and then give my life to Yué so that the curse can be broken and Yué gets her lifetime she lost helping me.

I´m only here to help and to die... again.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Toph? Sokka?" The avatar called. "I want you to meet somebody!"

"Hey, twinkle toes, since when are there two of you?"

"Toph! I want you to meet Yèrì. She´s a reincaned avatar spirit."

"How can she help?"

"She can teach me firebending!"

"Actually, it´s not that easy. I can only teach your teachers. Toph, can I talk to you alone for a minute or two?"

"Sure..."

While walking at Appas other side (Aang told me a lot about the group while walking) I was thinking of the right words to say.

"Toph, listen to me carefully. I want to give you something." I got an earthbender necklace (it was an emerald stone and gold necklace with the sign of the earthbenders carved into the stone.) out of the black backpack I carried around with me.

I put the necklace into her small hands.

"Wear this at day time and it will remember what you did. When you sleep, leave it on and you will see the day while sleeping."

"You mean I will be able to see colors and the moon and the sun and Aang, the wind, the grass? I will be able to actually see?"

"Yes, to see every little detail."

Tears of joy were emerging from her eyes. "Thank you."

"Toph, I know your an earthbending master, but there are some things I want to teach you. Is that okay with you?"

"Of course! I didn´t have proper training for ages!" (A/N: Never, to be honest)

"So how about this evening after dinner? By the way, your feelings for Aang... he feels the same."

I walked back to the camp leaving a starteld Toph behind.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Sokka, I´d like to talk with you next."

"Yeah, whatever..."

"Yué won´t be the moon spirit anymore."

"What?" His voice sounded suprised, sad, suspicios and hopeful at the same time.

"In three month, she´ll come back and I´ll be gone."

"What do yo..."

I cut him of with a sad smile. "I don´t want to talk about it, yet."

I looked up to the place the moon would come out in three hours.

"Oh, by the way, Katara is just fine. She´s on here way to Omashu with Aangs firebending teacher."

"Firebender? My sister is traveling with a firebender!"

"Well, yes. But don´t worry, nothings going to happen since fate´s on her side."

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

I was trying on my training clothes that Zukos uncle bought for me. It was a black, sleeveless tunic with silver linings and the matching pants that went to my ancles. Desiding it was easier to train with not to much hair in my way I unbraded it and put it in a low ponytail, leaving two normal bangs (not the usual loops) that framed my face perfectly. Okay, so the hair was still in the way but who cares?

"Perfect."

At the deck I found the already waiting Zuko.

"Let´s beginn with broad swords." I suggested. Not able to move his mouth he just nodded.

"Well, it´s very important to think of those two swords as one.If you think of them seperated you can´t control them and they won´t be any use for you."

Two hours training later

"You learn fast." He said a little exausted and with a small smile on his lips."But now I think it´s my turn."

"Okay." I put the broad swords away and thought for a moment how to explain the art of waterbending.

"Well, first of all, you have to understand the differences of fire and waterbending. While firebending you kind of produce the fire through breathing. But at waterbending, it´s more like ... meditading. You don´t demand it like fire you guide it. You´re not aloud to force it, you have to stay calm and think of well... something that won´t anger you so much you´ll force it. Like if I attack you because I´m angry because you tried to hurt Aang (A/N: Seems familiar?) I´m not aloud to forget that I only guide it. So while lightningbending –in your case- you should stay as calm as possible and if it doesn´t work at the first time don´t get angry with yourself." I looked him in the eyes to see if he understood before continueing. "It always helped me to think of the moon that reflects in the water whe I started to teach myself. I think you should concentrade on lightning and rain and on someone you like who water or lightningbends in that picture even if he or she is a non-bender." He thought for a moment and when I thought he knew how his picture looked like. "So shall we start?"

He only nodded in response but he seemed calm.

"Let´s start with an easy one." I tooked a bowl and bended some water in there."It´s about seperating some water and twirl it in front of you in a small ball and slowly make it a stream again and put it to the rest of the water again. Now, the stance must be steady but comfortable and the arms must be strechted out and it always helps to close your eyes while training. Don´t close your eyes yet! Wait until you now what you´re supposed to do."

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"For the first time waterbending´ you´re doing really well." Katara said as I managed to actually create a lightningball. While I was practicing the move again my Uncle joined us and watched in awe. "I can´t do that. That´s a move not even the most talented firebenders know." "I don´t understand. This is beginners lesson in waterbending."

"Yes, but you shouldn´t forget that fire and waterbending is different. Zuko, you´re doing extremling well. Not even Azula knows how to do that!"

"Thank you, Uncle."

"Katara, tomorrow´s music night. Maybe you would like to come."

My expression changed completly by those words.

"I except the offer."

"Oh, how delightful. And tomorrow morning another round of Pai Sho?"

"Of course."

Yay, I managed to update in less then two weeks! By the way this could be the last chapter for five weeks cause I´m in america in that time. If I find a computer you´ll hear from me soon. Read&Review
