Chapter Two
Payback

Of course, they had gone through a lot. They had gone through fights, and bickering and battles of wit that had lasted hours and always ended with a massive bending battle. Sokka and Aang had spent lots of time betting nuts over the outcome.
And they had also fought a war and lost friends like Haru the Earthbender and gained allies like Ty Lee the Circus freak and watched a hundred years war end. It hadn't been easy and each of them had cracked sometimes under the pressure. But they had the other to pull them up when the missiles were flying. They had done it together.

And there will be more!
