AN//: Hey, Here is my first attempt at any Zutara stuff. I decided to take on the Zutara 100 challenge (I know- that's a little ambitious). I probably won't write them all in order, but I will put which Prompt number it is before I start the chapter.
Category: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Pairing: Zuko and Katara
Rating: M (to be on the safe side)
Disclaimer: I do not now, nor have I ever owned any piece of A:TLA. If I did, the ending would not have happened the way the writers wrote it. For one thing, Ozai and Azula would be dead. For another Kataang would not exist. (be honest, if we saw a "ten years later" segment, they would have broken up and we all know it.)
Zutara 100 number: 002. Ends
Enjoy!
Ends
Her heart leapt into her throat as he intercepted the lightning bolt meant for her. 'No!' her mind screamed, 'NOOOO!!!!' she raced to his side before she was blocked by a wall of blue fire. When she had finally beaten the monster keeping her from him, she collapsed next to his limp form.
She frantically encased her hand in water, praying that it would be enough to heal her lover. 'Please, don't take him from me,' she begged silently, 'please not him.'
"Katara…" he choked out, grimacing in pain as he gently cupped her cheek in his hand. "It will be ok. I'll always love you."
"No, please don't leave me Zuko. I can't bear to live without you."
"It's ok Katara, this is just the end of one chapter…" he breathed as he died.
She wanted to howl in grief as she felt the spirit leave his body. If only she had more of the spirit oasis water, she could have saved him. She was distracted by her grief by the shrieking rage of the monster. Insanity crept into her eyes, and she stood, approaching the monster who had taken her love from her.
She timed it perfectly. Just as Azula breathed her next blast of blue flames, Katara stepped into it. She only had a single moment of agony before the darkness swallowed her. 'If it's the end for you,' she thought distantly, 'it's the end of me.'
