Zutara

Chapter 11- Katara

A few days later, the gaang came to visit and all of them gave us a big group hug as we did all those weeks back when the war went on, and then we broke the hug looking at Zuko asking," Should we tell them?" He nodded, and he started to stroke my hair, the gaang saw this. They all gasped except Suki and Toph who knew it would happen. Zuko started "We are together now."

As soon as that news happened, there was new news, Toph and Aang are together. The two were just holding each other hands, as it was our turn to be shocked.

And then Sokka blurted out "We are going to Yu Dao want to come?" looking at Zuko as he gently grabbed my hand. He nodded, and I said, "Sure." I felt a big tongue lick me from behind, turning it to see the big sky bison named Appa, "Appa! I missed you."

The gaang got into the sky bison and it felt like old times like back in the wartimes, we soon got to Yu Dao to meet with Kuei, and together with Earth King Kuei, Aang, and Zuko promised to restore four nations to harmony.

Team Avatar, King Kuei, and Bosco went into the throne room of the Earth Kingdom Royal Palace. Everyone is directing their attention toward the map and Aang looked at the map filled with Fire Nation colonies. Aang started with "I never realized that Fire Nation had built so many colonies in the Earth Kingdom."

The Earth King said, "Yes. For the Earth people, they're a constant reminder of the War, like an old scar. Then he realized he said that to the new Fire Lord "Oh, I... I -- Fire Lord Zuko, I meant nothing personal."

I was just looking at my man and held his hand in comfort and Zuko just looked at me and smiled at me and nodded, Zuko started to point at the map, and he proceeded "No Earth King, you're right. After all the pain my father has caused, I have to bring healing to the world. I'll remove those colonies. I'll do whatever it takes." I smiled at my man, he grew so much since that teen who invaded my home.

Aang started now saying, "But removing the colonies won't be easy. A lot of people's lives are going to be disrupted. We need someone to oversee everything, to make sure it all goes peacefully someone like me!"
Then Zuko was shocked at Aang's response.  Zuko and Aang smiled at one another, Zuko said," Really? You'd want to do that?"

Aang said," Yeah, I'm the Avatar making stuff go peacefully is kind of my thing." Toph smiled at her man.

Of course, the Earth King was excited so was everyone else "Wonderful! The Avatar's involvement will give the entire process an air of hope!" Then I said "Sokka and I can help too." but of course, Sokka said, "Aw I was gonna visit Kyoshi Island."

Kuei is shown deep in thought as Sokka pops in behind him.  "It'll be a movement - a movement towards harmony! We'll call it... we'll call it."

Sokka blurred out  The Harmony Restoration Moment!" Kuei smiled in approval,  Toph faced Sokka, who has a large grin on his face.

Kuei explained "Yes! The Harmony Restoration Movement! I like it!"

Then Toph said, "What's with you and your goofy names for everything." 

Sokka said," It's a gift."

The Earth King Kuei planned a celebration where he would announce the Harmony Restoration Movement. Before the festivities began, we decided to visit the Jasmine Dragon.

And Katara was angered by her brother's unforeseen entrance with Aang in the background exhibiting an embarrassed expression, waving his hands and trying to dismiss the situation.

Walking out to get some fresh air, I saw Zuko looking like he was in thought, coming up behind him, laying on his shoulder "You ok?"

He seemed to snap out of it," Yeah beautiful " As he strokes my hair.  But I knew he hiding something from me, but I didn't want to ply.

Where Zuko and I  figured we are meant for each other, or we were about to anyway before my stupid brother interrupted by screaming "Hey guys -- Ah!!! " I was blushing hard, then I said "Haven't you heard of knocking " Then, of course, Sokka stands disgusted with his tongue out as an enraged Katara points her finger in his face while yelling. "First of all, you're supposed to knock before you go inside not before you go outside, and second as my sister, you really shouldn't be kissing anyone in front of me! It's your sisterly duty to avoid giving me oogies!"

Of course, I said "Oogies Aargh! You are immature ." then I felt some strong hands hold me from behind, I know who those belong to, Zuko " What did you want, Sokka?"

Sokka just remember why is there "Oh! Right! We're about to head out." then Zuko said "But the Earth king's celebration doesn't start for a couple of more hours!" and Sokka said " I know. We wanted to take Appa out for a ride first!"

Aang was flying Appa vertically downward grasping the reins tightly while Momo clenches Aang's robe to avoid flying off with the rest of Team Avatar riding in Appa's saddle.

The rides were awesome I was getting held by Zuko as the big breeze blew through us, and Suki yelled out, "Wait, guys! The fireworks are starting." Toph and Aang rode the bison, leaning over the side, and watching fireworks explode above them in an assortment of colors, as Zuko held me tighter, smiling I have never been so happy.
