Hey it's only been week, but I'll try to have the next parts up faster.

To all who read Zuko's Slave by zukofan2005 (if you don't you should)

I just want to thank you for liking my Toph jokes. I love good comedy, which is why I started Seduction Game. (read more at the end).

So here's the next part enjoy.

Betrayed and Loved

Zuko clenched his eyes shut and waited for the pain.

*Splash*

He opened his eyes. There was someone standing with her back turned between him and the jealous crazed Avatar. It was Katara, holding Aang back by pushing against his shoulders. Her head was hanging to the ground so he or Aang couldn't see her face.

"What are you doing?" Aang asked still pushing forward, even with his flame extinguished.

"She's stopping you from hurting Zuko." Aang turned his head to see Sokka and Suki at the top of the canyon. They weren't crazy enough to jump down without bending.

"Looks like I owe you that foot massage." Suki whispered.

"Told you so."

Aang turned back to Katara. "Katara you don't have to be with him just because he saved you once. If he's pressuring you I-"

"He's not."

Aang face calmed a little. "But, then why-?"

"I kissed him, the first time, the one that started all this. He didn't have any intension to be with me before then. You should be blaming me not him. I know how you felt about me but…" She choked on her words. "I'm sorry Aang."

Aang's face strained with a combination of shock and sadness. "Katara…" He said with great disbelief.

She tightened her grip on his shoulders. "So don't you dare hurt Zuko." She said with a hint of anger. "Because if you do…"

Katara lifted her head. Aang saw tears running down her cheeks.

"I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.

Katara bit her lip, Her body vibrating trying to hold back more tears. Aang lowered his head, and the ice on Zuko melted away. He fell to the ground coughing. Katara released her grip and ran to Zuko's aid.

"Are you okay?" She said getting on her knees.

Zuko managed a small smile. "I am now." He reached up and held her hand, glad she was here.

Aang turned and walked away. He couldn't stand to see them like this. When he reached the wall he spoke.

"You may never forgive me if I hurt Zuko." The two looked up at him. He gave them a fierce look. "But I'll never forgive you for lying to me." And with that, he air jumped to the top of the canyon. Aang didn't even notice Katara had started crying again. Zuko pulled himself up and held Katara. They were both hurting. One physically, one emotionally.

After grabbing his staff that was leaning against the pillared he made earlier, Sokka and Suki came up to Aang. They could see the hate in his eyes.

"Aang calm down." Sokka started. "When I found them this morning and they told me, I was mad too but-"

"Wait…YOU KNEW TOO! I can't believe you two didn't tell me!"

Sokka tensed back. This was going from bad to worse.

"We all knew Aang." Suki said softly. "But we wanted to let them tell you."

"And looked how that turned out. Can I trust any of you any more?"

"Well what about the time you lied to me and Katara about our dad?" Sokka wished he didn't say that.

Aang tightened the grip on his glider.

Sokka reached his hand out. "Look, Aang…"

"Don't touch me." Aang opened his glider and flew away again.

Toph had just finished blowing off steam by smashing some boulders and was on her way back to camp. She was limping slightly due to her burn. She felt Momo fly on her shoulder.

"Oh hey Momo. I wondered where you were."

She rubbed the flying lemur's head with her finger.

"Dumb Katara."

Flashback…

"So what happen again?"

"Aang saw me and Zuko kissing and ran off."

"That has got to be your biggest blunder ever Sugar Queen."

"I know, I know, which is why I need your help."

"You ain't getting it from me. I tried that once and got this." Toph pointed to her still burnt foot.

"We'll help you." Suki said giving Toph an annoyed look.

"Do I have to? I really don't want to help that jerkbender."

"Please Sokka?" Katara pleaded. "Then do it for me." She gave him puppy dog eyes.

"Oooooooooooh…FINE! But after I pull Aang off Zuko, it's my turn."

"Take it easy Sokka. You act like he'll actually try to hurt Zuko." Suki said.

"Bet you a foot massage he does." Sokka smirked.

"Yeah, the pacifistic monk hurt someone. I'll take that bet."

"HELLO! Crisis here!" Katara yelled.

"Oh, sorry."

End flashback

She walked back to camp and sensed Aang there, but he was doing something.

Aang was hastily packing his stuff up and securing it on Appa's saddle, when he heard someone.

"What are you doing?"

Aang turned expecting it to be his so called 'friends' wanting to talk, but all he saw was Toph...alone.

"What does it look like?" Aang said in an angry tone. "Leaving. If you guys want to keep secrets from me, then I won't be around for you to not tell me."

Toph almost ask why, but she figured the obvious. "You know I can't let you do that."

Aang jumped down from Appa and marched up to her.

"You know you can't stop me." Aang said challenging her.

Toph thought. Maybe once before she could, but not now. He knew all four elements. Trying to stop him from leaving would be futile. When she didn't answer him, Aang turned and kept packing.

Toph knew she couldn't stop him, but she also couldn't let him run off by himself. "Then I'm coming with you." Toph wasn't asking.

Aang stopped and looked at her. "Why should I let you?"

Toph approached him this time. "Because I'm the only one who wasn't trying to keep it from you. I hated that they lied to you. I wanted to tell you myself, but Sugar Queen begged me not to. Then finding out the way you did… Look, I'm just as mad as you are, so I coming with you."

Aang considered it for a moment. "You mean it?"

Toph threw her arms up. "Hey I detect lies, not tell them."

Aang paused a moment more. "Fine." He airbent himself on Appa. "Grab your stuff. And hurry."

Toph wasn't one for unpacking, so she quickly got her stuff and earthbent a pillar up to Appa, and jumped on.

"Wait, shouldn't you leave a note?" Toph asked.

"Already done." Aang snapped the reins, "Yip-yip!" and took off.
