KATARA'S POV
I stood on the grass, the wind blowing my hair into my face along with lifting my casual blue dress, showing parts I would prefer people not to see. Blushing furiously, I held the dress down and looked around to see if anyone was around to have seen. Nope, no one in front of me. Turning, I looked behind me and saw a figure, wearing blue robes, the kind I used to wear back when I lived with Gran-Gran, facing me. I wonder if she's from the southern water tribe also? Her face was blurry, but I could make out her dark hair flowing onto her shoulders. The wind stopped blowing suddenly, and I stopped clutching my dress and wave anxiously.
Swallowing nervously, I called out to her, "Hello? My name is Katara of the southern wa-" The figure began to run swiftly towards me, and actually seemed more like floating. In a matter of seconds I could easily see her face... which was similar to mine. Blue eyes, and dark hair. No... It can't be! I fell to my knees, tears streaming down my face, as Mom walked up to me, her eyes shining with tears of happiness at seeing me I suppose.
She gave me one of her long-lost smiles and said, "My name is Kya, wife of Hakoda, the Tribal Chief, mother of two, and-" I stood up and threw my arms around her neck, sobbing that I missed her, as she said gently, "Katara, my dear, I've been watching you grow up, ever since the day I left the tribe. And, oh, I've missed hugging you and your brother and telling you two things will be okay more then anything. I miss you all so much; it makes me want to cry, even though I've always been there for you. I was there when you met the Avatar, I was there when you left the tribe, I was there for Sokka, even though he didn't know it, when he lost Yue, and I was there when your love for Aang changed to something different." She pulled back and gave me a soft smile.
Blushing, I told her, "I don't know what you're talking about, Mom."
She laughed, "Oh, Katara! I've known about your love and Aang's love for each other, ever since it began at the invasion. Well, actually, I do believe the feelings began before that. On Aang's part at least."
I sighed, "Of course you'd know."
She cupped her hand around my chin and said, "I know everything about you. After all, you are my daughter," she laughed before continuing on in a more serious tone, "Katara, you have done well with Mitsuo and I am-"
I frowned, "What's a Mit-sew?"
"Katara! Listen," she scolded, and I hung my head in shame. Where have my manners gone? "You're in a dream right now. Mitsuo has kidnapped you in the waking world. Do you remember?" Mitsou? I paused. Oh, no!
"Oh Mom, what do I do? I can't escape! Rescue is impossible andgetting away..." I pointed my thumb towards the ground.
She sighed and shook her head, "No, Katara. I've come to tell you not to lose hope. Sokka is coming."
I threw my hands in the air and cried, "Oh rejoice! Sokka is coming to my rescue! He won't get killed, he'll just sneak past a dozen armed guards and then sneak out two prisoners without getting caught! Perfectly logical!"
Mom laughed, "You're turning into a Sokka, Love. Plus, Aang is coming to, and he's the Avatar," she paused for a moment and frowned, "Two prisoners you said?" I nodded, and she said softly, "No. Only you."
My eyes widened, and I shook my head furiously, "If Akana Dolouris not coming then neither am I. I need her, Mom! She is a southern water bender like me! She is my age and-" I realized Mom's eyes had gone wide with shock, and I asked, "What's wrong?"
"You must have gotten the name wrong! Akana Dolour? Are you sure?" when I nodded confidently, she said hurriedly, "Listen, Dear. Akana is Kanna's friend's, Baile, the one that saved Kanna, daughter. Yes, Akana is a southern water bender. That's why she is being hunted by the fire nation. She was being protected by Kanna," She frowned, and continued emotionally, "If anything happened to Kanna... I'm going to be very upset."
I rested my hand on her shoulder and said, 'Nothing happened to Gran-Gran. She can take care of herself."
She sighed, "I hope so."
"Mom, you said Baile saved Gran-Gran?"
She nodded, "Yes, but not now. I have to go."
I looked down and asked, "Will I see you again? In a dream?"
She smiled, "Hopefully. I love you, Katara."
I smiled as a tear ran down my cheek, "I love you too, Mom. I miss you so much."
She leaned forward and wiped the tear away, "Remember, I'm always there. Aang and Sokka will be there soon. Be good, and stop being so stubborn to the fire nation. They were showing mercy yesterday."
I laughed sarcastically, "Mercy? They broke my finger!"
"Be grateful it wasn't your neck."
I swallowed, "Okay, I guess I could show some-" I gasped as the world around me, including Mom, blinked out of existence, and screamed, "No! Don't leave, Mom! Please! I need you! Sokka needs you! Come back! I don't want to-"
Panting, I sat up from the floor, on which I was sleeping not minutes ago. Blinking the sleep out of my eyes, I turned around and began sobbing my heart out. Mom. I saw Mom! Oh, I miss her so much. We all miss her. She was so kind and loving, and made me meals everyday. She even saved my life. Before my mind could flash back to the horrible time the fire nation attacked my village, and killed Mom, I heard someone behind me loudly clearing their throat.
Spinning around, I stood up and saw Nao standing a few paces away from me, who was blushing a deep red. I sighed, and asked, "Hi Nao, do you need anything?" He had seen me crying my head off.
He said, "Yes, follow me. My lord would like to see you."
Nodding, I followed him outside; we had been in a tent that had a fire nation symbol. I looked at him, "Um, Nao? You really don't have to call him 'My lord'. He's not around or anything."
He seemed rather surprised and cried. "Do not disrespect my lord!"
I laughed silently but apologized. He stopped walking and declared, "We're here." I looked past him and what I saw brought throw up. Coughing, I wiped my mouth, and looked again. Oh my God. I screamed.
A/N: lol I couldn't wait for 10 reviews so I went ahead and made the chapter. Next chapter will be done, not next week, but the week after that! :) Sorry this one is kind of short.
