Chapter 16: The big bad news
As soon as Azula and Mai were gone I asked where Sokka, Suki, and Zuko were.
"Well, Katara, we don't really know where Zuko is…he crashed into that wall over there and a bunch of rubble landed where he was…" Aang said, his voice slightly shaky.
"Zuko!!" I yelled, bolting towards the pile of rubble. I ripped the pieces of debris off and searched like crazy suddenly I saw a bundle of brownish-blackish hair.
"Zuko? Are you ok??" I said, moving the debris enough to uncover his sweet little head.
"Ughh….what…what happened?" He asked, dazed.
"Azula attacked you…are you ok?? Where are you hurt?" I asked, so very worried. I un-dug him from the pile and pulled him out.
He had few burns from Azula's fire blast. They could be easily healed and weren't nearly as bad as his scar. I could tell quickly blocked it but not enough.
I ordered Aang to get water, like when I got hurt, and he listened.
When he got back I first healed the burns I could see then the rest of his body.
Thank god. He wasn't terribly wounded well he was, he had a broken rib, but It wasn't as bad as Jet. He had had eternal bleeding, if you were wondering.
"He has a broken rib…HE HAS BROKEN RIB!" I shouted, hoping someone would hear which someone did. They quickly took Zuko away to fix him and we went to find Sokka and Suki.
"So…what happened to Sokka and Suki?" I asked, afraid of the answer.
"Um…well…" Aang was hesitant. I stopped walking.
"Aang, what happened. To. My. Brother?" saying one word sentences.
"Well…Sokka…got burned…bad," and this time his voice WAS shaky
"What?! Where??? How bad??" I got misty eyed
"Mostly in his right arm and torso. I'm sorry."
"What about Suki?" I asked, crying now.
"She took him to get help."
"Well lets go find them. Toph lead the way please." I said. We ran this time. And surely Toph knew right where it was.
We burst through the door and there was my brother wrapped up in bandages covering his chest and whole right arm…now that I thought of it I remember hearing a scream while fighting against Mai but I didn't think about it.
On his left Suki sat, holding his hand.
"Oh Sokka," I said getting teary eyed again.
"Hey Katara," he said, barley a whisper.
"I can't believe this happened to you…" the tears rolled down my cheeks. I felt so bad for him it felt like it was my fault.
"Katara, it wasn't your fault." he half smiled. I said that out loud. Anyway, I walked over to his bed and sat on the edge. I tried to think of something funny, to make it not so sad. I chuckled lightly.
"I guess you have to kill Mai and I have to kill Azula." I half smiled but the tears kept coming when I saw him grimace at pain.
He was trying to laugh because he thought it was funny but he must feel like he was on fire at that moment. I caressed his face.
"Poor Sokka." I said, sounding very sad. Suddenly a nurse walked in.
"What is it?" Aang asked sternly.
"We have some bad news…" She said. She sounded nervous as if she's never told anyone anything bad before. Like she didn't know how to say it.
"Well, you see, Sokka may not have the use of his right arm…ever," My eyes widened in horror. I looked at Sokka he was in shock…everyone was (even you, the person reading this).we couldn't believe it.
"I'm so sorry," she said. And I could tell by her words, she meant it. I couldn't tell you her expression because I locked my eyes on Sokka. He got misty eyed.
"Never again…?" He said in a very quiet whisper. And then Suki began crying…a lot.
For a split second I wondered why she was the one weeping, not Sokka. Then I thought, what if Zuko had no use of his arm? Would you be weeping? Of course you would!! and my thoughts were correct.
I would be weeping. If the love of my life lost anything important god I'd cry my eyes out just like Suki was. Then, I decided to ask the nurse if she knew anything about Zuko. When I did she replied, "Zuko? Oh yes. He's in the ER room.
He has 2 broken ribs and had some severe burns but they seemed to be healed…"
"Yes, I healed . Well he should be ok…after they fix him up he'll be in bandages and his torso may ache at times but his bones should heal up nicely." she said feeling better by giving GOOD news about someone, well somewhat good news.
I nodded once. But I didn't really know how to act.
My brother was badly wounded and the love of my life was going to be ok…
Well that was pretty much the case all in all.
Zuko healed up nicely and I gave Sokka daily healing sessions. And his burns responded well.
They slowly healed and we didn't see Mai and Azula for months. And the months passed quickly and since my 15th birthday passed almost a year ago my 16th was approaching quickly.
