Okay another chapter R&R ENJOY!
chapter three
The next morning was a bad day yet no one knew it. The sun was, up the birds were chirping, and the waterfall was rushing with the wonderful, and calming sound. Zuko opend his eyes and yawned. He streched his tired musles and looked at his side.
Katara wasn't there! He looked around. "Katara?" he said. "I'm out here Zuko!" she yelled. He sighed and opend the flap. Sure enought there was Katara and Aang cleaning up camp. Sokka was still sleeping. He crawled out of the tent and walked over to them. He kissed Katara and hugged her from behind.
"Good morning sleepy head." she whispered. He smiled and rubbed his face in her hair. She giggled. "Zuko! Don't get my hair all ratty!" he smirked and put his chin on her shoulder. "How long have you been up? what time is it?" she smiled and rolled up a cloth in her hand.
"I've been up for about an hour, and it's about a little past dawn." he nodded. And looked at Aang who was feeding Appa. "Hey Aang, are we going to practice?" Aang looked at him a big grin on his face. "Ya!" he shouted. He ran over to the couple and lit a little flame in his hand.
"I've been practicing when ever I have free time on the basics." Zuko nodded and let go of Katara. "Well then let's go while it's still early." Aang nodded and ran over to the waterfall. He turned to Katara with a smiled on his face. "You want to come? I could use a little help." she nodded and they walked over to Aang.
"Okay get in stances." Zuko said. They all got in fighting stances. "Aang feet further." he said. Aang sighed and put his feet out a little further. He looked at Katara and smiled. "This should be easy for a waterbending master." he said. Katara blushed a little and threw a little bit of water at him.
Aang laughed and looked at Katara. "Good one Katara." she nodded. "Thanks Aang, maybe Zuko would like a little more water?" Zuko shook his head. "I can hold off for a little bit." Katara giggled and got back in fighting position.
Zuko wipped the water off his forhead and got into his position. "Okay Aang, stance number sevendy five." Aang nodded and twirled a flame in his hand. Zuko watched and smiled. "Katara stance number thirty two." Katara looked at him. "What!" he nodded. "Just do it." she nodded and put water into Aang's fire.
Zuko put a flame into it and clapped his hands. The flames and water disappeared and then came back in an explosion and a confetty type stuff flew everywere. Katara smiled and looked at Aang. "Wow where did you learn that trick?" Aang asked.
Zuko shrugged. "After you've been to fire nation festibles over a hundred times your learn some stuff." Aang cocked an eyebrow. "But how did you know what stance for me and Katara?" Zuko rolled his eyes. "Well all three of those stances are the same, just diffrent number stances."
Katara nodded. "I get it, so you guys can keep doing this I'm going to go bath, since you've scouted the area." Zuko nodded. "Just...be careful just because we did doesn't mean there isn't anything out there." she nodded and walked off into the trees.
She came into a clearing with four hot springs. She looked around and thought of something. 'This place looks very familiar.' she looked around a little more and sighed. She walked over to the trees surrounding the clearing. She pushed a branch out of the way and gasped. "NO!" she whispered.
