The Fire Lord stood alone in his dressing room, nervously arranging his crown.

There was a click as the door opened, and Katara was there.

"I thought you left."

She looked down, her hair falling around her face.

"I wanted to say goodbye."

Zuko walked over, and held her hand.

"You're...not staying for the wedding?"

She looked up at him, holding back tears.

"How can you ask me to do that?"

"Katara, you know if I had the choice, I'd marry you in a second, not Mai.."

"But you don't have the choice, do you?"

"...I love you."

Katara turned, trying not to cry.

"And I love you. But this won't work."

He grabbed her shoulder and pulled the waterbender into his embrace.

"We can make it work. I'll still see you..."

He felt her tears on his robe.

She pulled away.

"I have to go."

He stared at her, pain in his heart.

"When will I see you again?"

"I...I don't know."

The firebender kissed her, not willing to let go.

"Goodbye, Zuko."

Then she was gone, and he was all alone.
