It was just a day like no other in the firenation.
The gaang, including Aang, Katara, Sokka and Toph, just wanted to drop down to the market to get some more eating supplies. They hadn't eaten a real meal for a long time.
As they where walking through the big market, Katara sees a girl who looks kind of familiar to her. She at first thinks its just a delusion and that she probably just reminds her of somebody. But somehow she couldn't take her eyes of her...
She looked just like...
Just like....Her Mother? No that couldn't be. She tries to get a closer look. Of course the woman has firenation clothes, but she can see with one glimpse, that her eyes where blue. Or did they where... grey?
Suddenly she wasnt so sure anymore. But the longer she kept staring at that strange girl, she realized that the girl was staring at her too.
"Ooh lets check out this stand. It looks pretty yummy" Aang yanked her out of her thoughts. Katara left the girl behind her and tried to focus on the important things. When they were almost out of the little village, ready to go to their hiding spot again, Katara suddenly hears a voice behind her speaking to her
"Sorry to interrupt you. I know this seems kind out of nowhere but....Do you know a girl named Kya by any chance?"
Katara didn't know what to say
"How do you know her?" She said, with a bit of mistrust in her voice.
"I- I-", said the girl who was probably in Kataras age, "Im sorry, I shouldn't have asked you that. Its just- she was a real close friend of mine and you look so like her "
Katara almost couldn't belive it. Still speechless she stutters out
"I- I don't understand. My mother-"
Katara stoped talking. Oh how stupid she was!!! Couldn't even keep that one secret. Now this firenation woman who somehow knew her mother will report her and Aang couldn't fulfill his mission, just because of her!!!
"I- I can't believe it!!" the young girl looked just as shocked as Katara. After a moment of silence, both trying to realize what was happening right now, the girl got closer to Katara and hugged her. It was a soft hug, like best friends do their hugs. The young girl had a smile on her face the whole time. After they looked at each other again the girl started to babble in amazement
"Oh I would've never believed that I would see her daughter someday- In my age! oh how creazy this word is sometimes" She said with a laugher, like she just talked about old times
"I- I don't understand-" Was the only thing Katara could get out
"Oh don't worry. I will tell you everything. I live with my parents just around the corner. Do you and your friends may wanna come to eat supper with us? Don't worry, my parents accept every nation and even have food from all over the world" The girl really showed her amazement for the great food at her home
„Hey Katara...who is this?"
Now Aang and the others started to join. The young girl answered in a polite and lovely way
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Where are my manners? Talking about inviting you and then don't even introduce myself.
Hi, Im Nini. Nice to meet you"
