"Kara? Are you okay?" Zuko's voice fills the tears in my room.

Kara's POV

"No." I say, my voice barely above a whisper. He sits on the end of my bed, waiting for me to explain. "I killed my Uncle." I start. I wait for a shocked, horrified look, but Zuko's face shows compassion. Like he understands exactly what I'm going through.

I repeated my story to him, leaving out the part about Aang. I still wasn't sure if I could tell him. Or anyone for that matter. In the end he end up sitting in front of me, hold my hands for comfort.

"I was told to lead a army once. We were marching right into a death trap." I gasped. "Half the army died that day on my account, I felt horrible, I might as well of killed all of those men myself." He says sadly.

"Zuko, I'm sorry for freezing the deck. I just want you to have some fun too. You seem stressed." He looks up at me with his pure golden eyes. He gives my hands a squeeze.

"I suppose I am a little stressed. I guess I should be impressed you learn so fast too." He shrugs, "Ill teach you some firebending in the morning okay?"

I smile jumping up to give him a hug. "Thank you!" His chuckles fill my ears and he pats my back. "Oh, and by the way Peanut Butter, Katara is going to kick your butt!" He rolls his eyes and leaves.

I think, Zuko and I are going to be friends.

Zuko's POV

I lied. Kara told me all about her uncle and her anger and I lied about the army. My wars were always won! I'm Zuko, son of the Fire Lord! But that's beside the point. If Kara found out, our newfound friendship is dead!

I sighed, shaking the thought from my mind. She would never find out. Hopefully.

I went to get changed for my spar with Katara. I was kind of scared to be honest. People say she can bend blood too. Not only that, what if I'm stronger and then I hurt her? What would I do then?

I onto the deck and saw Katara practicing. She looked so peaceful, as if nothing could ruin it. "Hey Zuko." She says in a calm voice. The voice instantly calm my jittery hands.

"Hey." I say back. She smiles and walks over to me.

"Don't hold back." I grunt,

"Not a chance." She backs up and takes a stance. I do the same. She takes the first move, twisting a whip towards me. I easily dodge it blasting fire towards her. This went on for a couple minutes; until we moved to hand combat.

I was much more advanced then her in that area. Punch after punch, kick after kick, I dodged. Finally she lands a punch on my shoulder, but its weak and I grab it and spin her into my arms.

She squirms, "I win." I say in her ear. I feel her shiver and chuckle. "And I was holding back." This was true. I had made sure to be equal with her at bending, but hand combat was a lot harder, so many times I could have kicked her, or flipped her over.

"Sure you were." She says. I let go, and she steps out of my arms. "I promise you." I reply. She huffs.

"Fine. I'm going to bed." She storms off. I can't help but laugh at her reaction. I practice a little after and then go back to my room. I find a sleeping Katara and smile.

After a quick bathing, I lay down next to the Waterbender. "Goodnight Katara" I mumble to her then blow out the candles.
