Aang coughed a bit more, finally able to breath normally. Now his face was really red. Aang's eyes opened. He looked at Katara, then to Sokka. He gave a weak smile then his eyes closed.
"Aang! Wake up!" said Katara.
"I'm awake Katara"said Aang weakly; opening his eyes.
"Oh Aang, poor baby"cooed Katara, picking him up and hugging him.
"That stupid plant, causing all this emotional distress."
"I'm sorry Katara. I've been upset and confused for a while. I mean when Zuko cut me, everything just fell apart. I should have talked to you and..." Aang suddenly stopped. He closed his eyes and looked away. He remembered how Sokka had laughed at him, now becoming very angry. Aang against began to cry.
"Hush, Aang, hush!"said Katara, holding the now squirming child.
"Sokka! Now what!"
"I don't know! He almost suffocated himself once. When you were little and upset, Mom used to sing to you"said Sokka. Katara hugged Aang tighter, thinking of an old song she remembered:
Hush now, my baby
Be still love, don't cry
Sleep like you're rocked by the stream
Sleep and remember
My lullaby
And I'll be with you when you dream
Drift on a river
That flows through my arms
Drift as I'm singing to you
I see you smiling
So peaceful and calm
And holding you, I'm smiling, too
Here in my arms
Safe from all harm
Holding you, I'm smiling, too
Aang stop crying, listening to the words. It did seem to be a Water Tribe Song. Aang fell asleep in her arms, peaceful and very tired. The next morning, Katar found Aang resting on her legs, her arms loosely wrapped around his waist. She looked at his face, gasping. She quickly felt his forehead, clucking her tongue; another fever. The plant still had one last time to act before it was out of his system, or so they thought. Katara bended some water on Aang's fore head, making him sigh.
"I think that emotional meltdown started his fever again. But it should be down by this afternoon." said Katara. Aang slept for the rest of day till afternoon. Katara checked Aang in the afternoon, his fever had broken, like Katara had said.
"Katara? What happened?" asked Aang, slowly opening his eyes, adjusting to the bright light.
"Yesterday night, you cried and cried, and well, kept crying. Then you calmed down, but cried again. Sokka and I were afraid you would suffocate again, so I sang to you and you calmed down and fell asleep. But the crying brought back your fever. Oh and by the way, the face is really pink," said Katara, looking away. Aang shrugged, staying by Appa and eating. Later on , Sokka came by, hesitant to talk with Aang.
"Hey Aang, about yesterday, I never really meant to hurt you"mumbled Sokka, rubbing the back on his head nervously.
"It's ok Sokka, I know you really didn't mean it"said Aang.
