A/N: I'M BAAAACK! Camp was so fun! Not to mention praising the Lord! Woo! Anyway, this topic was so hard because I didn't really know what alternitive universe was. But I read some amazing stories and did a little research and when I went into my kitchen to get a bagel I twirled in my socks and VOILA! This wanderful story was born only 10 min later. To all of you who reviewed my last chapter, thank you and it moved my heart when you guys got emotional about it ToT So here's a new chapter! Enjoy!

Zuko leaned against the wall outside of the theatre, staring at the few stars that made themselves visible through the foggy New York sky. He couldn't get the image of her graceful movements out of his head and he could feel himself smile when he thought of meeting her someday.

His sister and her two friends wanted to see Swan Lake before they went back home and of course he had to go, too. At first, he was irritated at having to dress up and watch a bunch of pansies jump around in leotards, but after he saw the performance by the girl who played Odette, he was moved. She was beautiful and graceful and completely convinced him of her performance. His sister and her friends didn't seem pleased with how it turned out, they went on and on about how they could do better, but he was awestruck.

Zuko shifted against the wall and sighed. His companions were inside taking their time in the bathroom and gossiping with all the other ladies about how the show went. He decided to wait outside in the cool air and away from the crowd of people. He quickly glanced at his watch. It had been almost fifteen minutes since the show ended and he was growing impatient. With another sigh, he pushed off the wall and turned the corner to head inside and find his sister, but was quickly stopped when he bumped into someone.

"Oh! I'm sorry," she said sweetly as she looked up at him. He could feel his heart pace quicken when he recognized the sharp blue eyes that looked up at him apologetically. Her soft features were stunning and her smile dazzled him.

"Uh, no. I'm sorry. I should've watched where I was going," he said taking a small step back. She giggle softly and nodded a thank you. "Um, I liked your performance," he said finally. Her eyes glowed slightly and her smile widened.

"Well thank you. I do love dancing." Her expression seemed puzzled briefly. "Um, did you come to see the performance alone? Usually men aren't all up for watching ballet." Zuko could feel his cheeks redden and ran a hand through his dark hair.

"Actually I brought my sister and her friends to see it. Honestly, I wasn't too thrilled, but now that I've seen it I'm happy that I came." He gave her a small smile and she returned it sweetly.

"It was nice meeting you, um?"

"Zuko."

"Zuko." His heart stopped when she said his name.

"Likewise," he managed to say. He shook her hand and as she passed he could smell her delicate scent. He watched her walk a bit before he suddenly called out to her.

"What's your name?" he shouted to her. She stopped and turned around to meet his eyes.

"Katara," she shouted back. With another smile, she turned back and continued down the street.

"Katara…" he let her name dance on his lips.

"Come on Zuzu!" called his sister from the front entrance. He quickly walked to them, but glanced back in her direction before he hailed a taxi.
