My Lion King Forum

"Will you guys leave me ALONE?"Zuko shouted.

"No,we won't,"Sokka crossed his arms.

"I know that another family reunion is the last thing you want Zuko,but just relax,Azula is minor.We defeated the firelord and we don't have anything to worry about. Azula is weak,"Aang assured him.

"It's not that...It's, they are still my family, I wouldn't know how I would feel if we actually...destroy them?"Zuko quietly said.

"ZUKO!You have a heart,"Sokka joked around with an unapproved glance from everyone,'just trying to keep the mood up..."

"I never knew you felt that way Zuko..."Aang said as he rested his hand on his shoulder.

"Yeah,neither did I"Zuko said as he got up refusing Aang's hand.

Toph walked up to him and punched his arm. "Listen, we don't want to actually destroy your family either. But we'll do whatever it takes to stop them from burning the world down." She paused, then punched his arm again.

"Thanks for the affection Toph,"zuko sarcastically said as he began rubbing his arm.

He shook his head and carried on," -- I really don't care. I only said that for my mother-,"his voice began to falter as he annoyingly stared at himself with tears almost dripping."No they are crazy,they never were my family."

"Zuko,it's alright,me and Katara lost our parents,we think of you guys as our family,"Sokka uncorfotable said.

"After I lost my air nomad family,you guys are all I had,"Aang added.

They all stared up at Toph to finish.

"My parents were so overprotective of me. I know they did it out of love, but I was irritated by their overprotectiveness. Being free and travelling around the world with you guys....You are my family. She punched whoever was next to her - which happened to be Sokka - in the arm.

(I have a HUGE crush on Zuko <3)

"Gee thanks,"Sokka said.

Zuko half smiled with his loose hair dripping around his scar.He got up and looked over at the ocean.

"So are we going to go find Katara?"Aang brightly asked.

"Nah-let her practice her waterbending she'll come back," Sokka lazily said as he began to lay on the soft sand admiring his fish.

"Don't listen to him Zuko,come with us,"Aang said as he lent a hand.

"You two can go look for Sugar Queen. I'd rather not be drenched in water," Toph said, lying down against a rock.

Katara was out in the ocean, floating on a thin ice block. This was nice and relaxing, after the long year of repairing cities with Aang and Zuko. She let her fingers glide across the water's surface, wishing she could just lie here forever.

Sokka sighed,"You got me alright,"as he rested on the sand peacefully.

"Where could she be in this time of night?"Aang asked thoughtfully.

"There,"Zuko replied pointing his finger towards an outline of a tall girl.

"Katara!"Aang shouted as he flew in the air with his glider soaring above the mystical clouds.

Katara grunted,distracted as she dropped the small droplet of water she was holding.

"Waterbending huh? It's getting late,maybe you should come back to the camp.We can discuss our plans for tomorrow."Zuko asked.

"Fine!" Katara said disdainfully. Why did Aang and Zuko always have to sneak up on her like that? She walked out of the water and onto the shore. "Whatever you say, oh Mighty Fire Lord and Avatar."

"you could have told us where you were going before,"Aang quietly said.

Zuko quietly walked beside Aang looking at the moon with hatred as he hurried into the camp.

"It's really cold--I forgot my warm fluffy jacket in Ba sing Se!"Sokka complained.

"No worries,"Zuko said as he got up.

He breathed deeply and emitted big and bright flame into the camp.

"Firebending power!"sokka replied with joy.

"My bending's not that good in the moonlight,"Zuko quietly muttered.

"It doesn't matter, I'll never be as good as YOU,"Aang cheerfully complimented.

"You will be when your trained up again,"Zuko forcefully replied.

Aang sighed and laid down flat on the sand.

"Alright we need to make plans for tomorrow,"Sokka said as he devoured a whole fish heartily and spread across a dusty map.

"Tomorrow,Kyoshi Island,"Sokka said brightly.

"Why Kyoshi Island?"Aang asked.

(Sorry I didn't reply in awhile. I didn't forget about this thread. I just didn't know what to put...)

"Yeah. Why do we have to go to your girlfriend's home?" Toph asked, making it sound like a normal question, not one showing her jealousy that Sokka chose Suki over her.

"I was planning on repairing more places with Aang, and maybe visit the Southern Water Tribe soon," Katara said.
