Sorry for making the first chapters so chaotic, you can't see when a new paragraph starts. So from now on, I'll use ooooooo or something to make the stories readable. Sorry again! I'll update the others as soon as possible!

But anyway, let's go on, it's almost over anyway!

This is where it happens: Zhao kidnaps Katara, and uses her against Zuko. Zuko has to kill Aang and give him to Zhao to get Katara back…

Chapter 8

Captured

The night was getting closer, and Katara and Zuko were both nervous. They've been waiting for hours, but it seemed like Aang and Sokka weren't planning on coming.

Zuko sighed, and held Katara closer.

'It's freezing out here!' he said.

Katara nodded, and enjoyed Zuko's warmth.

'Maybe they've forgotten about our meeting here?'

Zuko sighed again.

'That's possible. I think I'll go and check on them, I'll bring them here.'

Katara swallowed and held Zuko tighter.

'Please don't leave me alone out here, it's so dark, and I'm scared…'

Zuko gave her a kiss and a hug.

'Sorry, Katara, I'll hurry, okay?'

He waved at her and walked inside. Katara tried to warm herself, but it was way to cold.

She sneezed and coughed a bit. She felt like the darkness was crawling all over her, and she shivered. The water was calm, and there was no noise, not a single noise.

'Please hurry, Zuko…' she whispered.

'Maybe he's stuck in traffic…' A mysterious voice said that, and Katara gasped.

'Who's there?' she asked in panic.

Zhao walked out of the shadow and glared at Katara. Katara gasped again.

'Zhao!' she shouted.

Zhao nodded and gave her an applause.

'Very good, girl. I didn't expect you to be smart enough to know my name.'

Katara glared at him, and wanted to run inside, but he held her by her wrists.

She looked up in his eyes, and her heart was hitting against her chest.

'Let me go! Let me go, or I'll call Zuko!'

Just when she wanted to shout for Zuko, she noticed Zhao wasn't stopping her. She didn't trust the man at all, and tried to release herself from his grip. Zhao didn't let go and laughed.

'Well, go on, than! Scream for your boyfriend!'

Katara shook her head and a tear rolled over her cheek.

'No! You're up to something!'

Zhao sighed, and his gaze turned out less friendly.

'I was hoping that you'd play the game a bit better, but I guess there's no other way…'

He pulled a knife out of his pockets and held it by her throat.

'Now scream, or I'll cut your throat open!' he threated.

Katara saw the shining metal of the knife, but remained silence. Zhao had an other idea.

'Or do you want me to throw this at Zuko?'

Katara shook her head, held her breath for a while, but gave up by than.

'Zuko!' she shouted.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Meanwhile, Zuko was looking for Sokka and Aang. He saw the two boys in the kitchen, they were playing monopoly.

Zuko rolled his eyes.

'Why are you guys here? I thought Katara and I asked you to come to the deck!'

Sokka gasped.

'YOU asked Aang as well to come?'

Zuko nodded, but when he wanted to continue, they heard a scream.

Zuko recognized that voice immediately.

'Katara!'

He ran to the door, followed by the confused Aang and Sokka.

When he saw Zhao, he wanted to attack him immediately. But Zhao pressed the knife harder to her troath, and Katara couldn't help to scream again.

Zuko froze and stared at the knife.

'Stay away from her!' he shouted. But Zhao only laughed.

'How about no? One step closer and this pretty young lady won't be able to scream anymore!'

Zuko saw the frightened look in her eyes, and it felt like a stab through his heart. Because of that, he became slightly desperate.

'Please don't hurt her! I'll do anything, but just don't hurt her!'

Zhao had a grim on his face, and Sokka and Aang didn't understand why Zuko became so desperate. Zhao noticed it by the look on their faces, and his grim grew bigger.

'And why do you care about this girl so much?'

Zuko came a step closer and stared at Katara, with tears in his eyes.

'Because I love her, you fucking fool!'

Aang and Sokka gasped, and Zhao laughed.

'Oh? Your playmates didn't knew? What a shame…'

Zuko felt a tear rolling over his cheek, and Sokka nearly fainted.

Zhao had enough of teasing them, and went on.

'Listen, Zuko, you can have your girlfriend back, but you'll have to do something for me.'

'I'll do anything!' Zuko said.

'Kill the Avatar and give him to me!' Zhao said, while pointing to Aang with the knife.

Zuko had a shock, and stared at Aang. Aang was shocked as well, and stared at Zuko.

'Zuko… Don't tell me you're going to…' Aang stuttered.

Zuko stared at Katara. He would never hurt her, and by leaving Aang alive, Zhao would kill her. He felt like he had no other choice…

He shot a fireball at Aang, and Aang avoided the shot just in time.

Zuko shot more fireballs, and Aang shouted while avoiding.

'Don't do this, Zuko! You can't trust Zhao!' he shouted.

But Zuko didn't listen. He kept attacking Aang, trying his very best to kill him. Tears where streaming down his face, but he would do anything for Katara.

Anything.
