Author's Note: Okay last chapter! Once more thanks to all the people that have stuck with me and Kaya. Ha ha! I sound like a celebrity accepting a Grammy! Okay, moving on... here we go. I know I didn't have to write an epilogue but actually yes I did. Just so we wouldn't be left hanging.

Chapter Seventeen: Epilogue- Eighteen Years Later

Kaya's Point of View

Just to Catch Up

I finished my training with flying colors just like my parents before me. After that I didn't go directly back to the South Pole but instead traveled the world like my family did years before I was even thought of. The next time I saw Mue and Yoon they were six, and Mue had been blessed by the moon. Her hair shone white like the snow, but she also showed signs of a waterbender, I promised that if she was I would be her master. She was one of the best pupils I ever had. When I was nineteen a trip to the fire nation ended in a bad result, as Uncle Sokka and my father declared. I fell in love, with no other than the heir to the fire nation throne, Tanek. I couldn't step up to being fire lady but he loved me enough to step down and Jenyi became firelord instead. We were married that year. We moved to the southern air temple where we listened to our family play and visit. We have many guests. What I like about it is that we are about as close as we can be to my domain, clouds. I was a cloudbender and I was proud.

Okay now time for the Epilogue- Eighteen Years Later

I watched as my family gathered for one of those rare feasts where we could all be together. It had grown in the last eighteen years.

I had never forgotten that I was a girl of clouds, nor that my mother was always there, half of my domain, and it showed from time to time.

The first time I had a child I was twenty plus, I lucked out and got two. Twin girls, Cloud Ag and Tara Zo, my beautiful daughters. Cloud had my eyes, my father's gray eyes, and Tara, she received my mother's blue orbs, so at least they were not lost. My father was thrilled with his grandchildren and so was I. They were everything I could have asked for and more, much more than I deserved.

The next time I was with child was when Cloud and Tara were one and a half. We got a feisty little boy who seemed to want to be exciting before he even arrived. Tanek chose a name for him. We called him Clu Ka. He was a lot like his father and grandfather Zuko.

His brother arrived when he was a year old. I named him Demain Mi.

Our last little one arrived not so long after that. Adaline Faw, but we call her Addy.

Now I looked around the table. Mue had arrived with her husband and her belly just now slightly bigger. Her brother arrived soon after with his betrothed, his necklace shimmering on her neck.

I fingered my own, Tanek had followed my traditions. The shell was etched with what were clearly water tribe symbols though the lace that tied around my neck was the red of the firenation.

My father, who still did not look very old was talking to Zuko. Mai was behind him talking to her son. Demain ran up to her and hugged her.

"Grandma!" He cried as she patted his cheek still not overly wonderful at the whole showing affection thing. I swallowed remembering that they would only ever know one grandmother.

"Mommy. Mommy Cloud and Tara are trying to show grandpa Aang their bending." Addy said, pulling on my skirts to get my attention.

"That's fine. Wait is Clu out there?" I asked, realizing that he might want to try too. A nod from her and a cry of surprise from outside sent me running for the courtyard, Tanek soon following, his daughter telling him.

Unfortunately all of my children were benders. Cloud and Addy were airbenders, Tara a waterbender, Demain an earthbender (much to Aunt Toph's liking), and Clu, oh Clu was a firebender.

I stepped into the light to see my twin girls, father, eldest son, sister-in-law, and niece on the ground laughing. Jen's daughter, Ying, was only six but she could already bend fire like Clu.

After much calming down and coaxing I found out the full story. Apparently Clu tried to bend and he was successful but Ying surprised him by stepping from behind a pillar and sending it back his way. Only a small burn on his cheek was his only injury so I let it go.

Cloud and Tara helped up their aunt, who stomach was swollen with the coming baby, only a few months away.

Her husband, Wong Chia, stepped outside and helped her, and playfully scolded her too.

Uncle Sokka was throwing his boomerang at Clu and he was throwing it back.

Aunt Suki stood by watching and chatting with Mue, probably about the baby as she kept pointing to her daughter's stomach.

Aunt Toph stood a little ways a way teaching Demain about earthbending forms.

My father came up behind me.

"You did a good job getting this together." He whispered into my ear.

I smiled but did not respond, my mind still fluttering on my mother.

"It is almost like when I was a kid, except there were no earthbenders or waterbenders, and there definitely were no firebenders."

"Oops."

"No that's all right I like it better this way." I smiled and gave him a hug, but still my thoughts were mainly focused upon my mother.

"Your mother would have liked this, seeing the whole family as one." He always seemed to know what I was thinking.

"Well your good enough dad. I can't have everything."

"You haven't done so bad yourself." He said, motioning to my five little ones who were running around causing chaos.

"Thanks."

"I love you Kaya."

"Love you too dad."

I love you Kaya.

"I love you too mom." I whispered to the air.

As we started to gather to eat I scooped up Addy and took Demian's hand.

As I walked I felt someone else by my side. Guiding me as she had always done, even if I didn't always know it.

The spirit of one of the greatest waterbenders ever walked with me, beside me always. My mother, and hopefully it would be like that until my footsteps end in this world and begin in hers.

I held my daughter closer, and gripped my youngest son's hand tighter. I was ready to protect them, all five, to gently push and lead them in the right direction. I would always be there for them even if I was not visible, just as my mother before me.
