I have started writing Prequels, here is a list of them:

A Second First Date; One month after Aang defeated Fire Lord Ozai

Nightmares; A One-Shot Prequel to Together Again. Aang saved the world, he faced Ozai on his own. Everyone kept saying that he was a great hero, that he was so brave. He wore a brave face and acted all the hero they thought he was. But at night in his sleep he was a scared boy, scared for his life as he tried to get away from a psycho Firebender. The Battle came back at night.

Anila's Story; This is another Prequel to Together Again. It's about a Young Female Airbender just starting out in life. She was ready to travel the world as soon as she turns 16. Little does she know, Destiny has a grand purpose for her first child.

Chapter 40

The next morning just before the sun started to rise, Katara woke up sick. She tried to shake Aang awake like he told her, when that didn't work she hit him in the face with the water from her cup on the night stand.

Aang woke up sputtering from the water that hit him in the face just in time to see Katara run to the bathroom. He pulled all the water from himself and the bed and put it back into the cup.

He went into the kitchen and worked quickly preparing the tea and biscuits for Katara. Like the day before, it only took a minute to do it.

He brought a cup into Katara and sat down next to her, stroking her hair. She drank a bit turning her violent retching into panting. Then after a few more sips she was able to catch her breath. "Oh, thank you so much, Sweetie."

"When you feel ready, I'll help you to the table." Aang told her.

"I'm ready now, please."

He helped her up and walked her to the table. She sat and nibbled on her biscuits. About twenty minutes later they heard Gyatso waking up.

Katara started to stand up. Aang said "I'll get him, you need to drink your tea."

They loaded Appa up with their belongings, getting ready to travel to that small village to see Song.

It took 2 days to get there even on, Appa. Gyatso liked camping he giggled at the flames from their fire.

"Is that the village?" Katara asked as she pointed from her seat next to her husband.

"Yeah, that building right there is the hospital building." Aang said pointing to a medium-sized building.

They landed near the hospital. Aang was a bit nervous about seeing Song, but he wanted to thank her. He took Katara's hand for courage. He wanted to bolt like a scared rabbiroo. He knocked on the door. Katara was standing next to him. She was wearing one of her last dresses that she could fasten, but it still pulled quite tightly around her protruding tummy.

They heard footsteps from the other side of the door. Aang squeezed Katara's hand. The door slid open and Song was standing in front of them. She smiled and said "Welcome back Avatar Aang, Hello Lady Katara." Song already knew that Aang had married Katara, that's what he left here to go do. She was surprised however by the baby Katara had sitting on her hip.

Aang noticed her look. "This is my son Gyatso. He was born almost a year ago."

"You were here a year ago." Song said.

"He is an Airbender." He told her. "Lady Katara was pregnant when you found me."

Song now felt really guilty for not telling him who he was sooner. She glanced over Gyatso and Katara. Her eyes stopped dead on Katara's protruding abdomen.

Before she could say anything Aang said, "We wanted to come here to thank you for taking care of me and sending me back to my family."

"Oh... you're welcome." She said. "Would you like to come in for some tea?"

"That would be great." Aang said.

Song made tea and got out sweet rolls for everyone. Song, from working in the hospital, knew about pregnancy. "How far along are you?" she casually asked Katara.

"About three months. I don't understand why I am this big so soon though. I wasn't with Gyatso." Katara said.

"I would listen to it but it's too soon to hear anything this early." Song told her. About three months would put conception right at the end of the tournament.

"I can hear it. I listened to it a couple of days ago." Aang told her.

"Really?! You can hear it! What did it sound like?" Song said.

"I could hear a strong heartbeat but it sounded echo-y."

"ECHO-Y! Congratulations! You are having TWINS!" Song smiled at them.

"Oh Spirits help me!" Katara said with exasperation.

"Oh, My Love, everything will be OK... I'm here for this pregnancy. You don't have to do it on your own this time." Aang told her.

Now Song felt really bad... trying to keep him for herself left this poor woman to go through pregnancy and childbirth alone. "I'm sorry." She said.

Aang knew what Song was sorry for, but Katara didn't. Aang shook his head telling Song not to tell Katara about her not telling him who he was sooner.

"For what? You took care of him then sent him back to us."

"Oh, that you had to go through it all alone." Song half told her the truth.

"Song I wanted to give you this for taking care of me and giving me the money to get back to my family." He handed her a pouch with 100 gold pieces in it.

"I could never accept this, it's far too much!" She told them.

"We both want you to have it." Katara insisted.

"Thank you so much, Avatar Aang, Lady Katara, you are so gracious."
