6 months later, everything had changed. Bumi had been sent off to stay with Uncle Sokka in Republic City for the summer. Kya was going to camp at the Ember Island Players Theater Company. Aang had been talking to the Air Acolytes about moving to the temples for weeks. This left Katara alone with Tenzin for most of the time. With her hands full.

Raising a child is hard. No one will ever tell you different. And even though Katara had two children before him, Tenzin was practically unmanageable. He was constantly crying, he wouldn't sleep, and he could not stop sneezing. It was impossible.

"Shhhh. Tenzin. Stop crying. It's okay. Go to sleep." Katara sighed, rocking her child in her weak arms. Tenzin sneezed very loudly, seeming to knock himself into his mother with the force. Katara yawned. She was more tired then ever, and slowly losing feeling in her arms after all the rocking. Tenzin sneezed again. Katara sighed again.

"Good boy, Appa. Now get some rest. You had a long ride." A voice echoed from outside.

"AANG!" Katara cried, setting Tenzin down in his cradle. She ran outside and immediately jumped into Aang's arms. She wrapped her feet around him and flung her arms around his neck.

"I missed you so much!" Katara said.

"How's Tenzin?"

"Great. Now kiss me."

She grabbed his cheeks, pulling his face towards hers in a long, romantic kiss. She smiled through the kiss, missing the taste of his lips. Tenzin began to wail. Aang pulled away.

"I'll get him. I'm sure he-"

"No." Katara pulled him in for more.

"Katara. Stop. Don't we-?"

"No."

"Katara."

"Shut up."

"Katara!"

She sighed, pulling away.

"He'll be fine. I've been with him every second he cries and he doesn't want anything. I haven't, however, been with my husband in weeks. So shut up and kiss me!" It was unlike Katara, but Aang shrugged. He kissed his wife, needing every inch of her as much as she needed every inch of him. Tenzin continued to cry.

Suddenly, a whoosh of air almost knocked Aang and Katara over. He grabbed her, holding on to her waist as they both felt a powerful wind pushing them to the ground.

"AANG! WHAT'S HAPPENING?" Katara screamed over the loud gusts of wind.

"I DONT KNOW!" Aang yelled back.

They heard a shriek from the house. They both looked at each other.

"TENZIN!"

Aang grabbed Katara's hand and pulled them through the vortex, pushing air away to make a path. When they reached Tenzin, they fell to the floor in exhaustion. The wind stopped. Tenzin cooed.

"Ma-ma. Da-da."

"I wonder what that was about." Katara said, standing up to straighten her clothes and flatten her hair.

But Aang didn't respond. He was staring at Tenzin.

"Aang? Sweetie?"

He said nothing.

"What is it?" She came around to look at her oddly silent husband.

He stared into Tenzin's eyes, an utterly blank look plastered on his face.

"Wait. You don't think he could have-" Katara gasped. She placed a hand over her mouth. Aang looked at her, a small smile creeping on to his face. Katara squealed and jumped into Aang's arms again, tears streaming down her face.

"Our child is an airbender."
