darkness

Part 2

Katara's p.o.v

"come on Aang" i called to my husband through the horrible storm we were in.

Now you think it would be some rainy storm in the city or country side. but it wasn't, we were in the middle of the ocean by Greece looking for the lion temple. In one of our adventures we came across a tablet written in a different language. We hoped that finding this temple would give us a better understanding of what the tablet says.

"This storm isn't letting me see a thing." he called back

"You want me to drive?"

"oh your an expert on driving in storms?"

I chuckled and made my way toward him. Aang and I have been married for 15 years already. we had three wonderful children: Kya, Bumi, and Tenzin. Kya is the oldest and our only girl; she wanted to be a doctor back in Alaska. Bumi..well Bumi isn't your typical boy. sometimes I wonder whats going on in his mind but i love him nonetheless. He wanted to join the army and i wouldn't doubt he would. then there was our youngest, Tenzin. He wasn't as rowdy as his siblings; He got that from his father. he hoped to be a lawyer so that he can help people who were in jail wrongfully. that happens a lot these days, ever since Yakone came into the picture, he had been oppressing everyone he could. we have been lucky to be out of it mostly but he did have some interest in our research, this worried me deeply.

"Only you would have me navigate this ship during a storm this bad." Aang grumbled

I raised a brow

"I didn't hear any objections from you."

I could see a twitch in my husbands lips, a sign of a coming smile

"had it made a difference"? he asked teasingly

I laughed

"Nope"

He chuckled and  did as well, until I saw the large boulder up ahead that is

"Look out!" I cried

Too late. the ship rammed right onto the rocks launching my husband and me to the cold sea

Aang P.O.V

The last thing I saw was our ship ramming into some rocks. Katara and i then flew off it and plunged straight into the icy cold water. i wasn't all that great of a swimmer but i managed to resurface fairly quickly.

"Katara!" i cried searching frantically for her

When she didn't resurface i dived down to get her and saw as she sunk into the abyss of the ocean. I grabbed her by the waist and made a move to take is the the surface when a light caught my attention. yeah i know a light under the ocean. at first I thought I had hit my head on a rock and it was all a dream but no, there was light, and it was.....calling me?

weighing my options for about half a second i decided to follow the light in hopes that it was save both of katara's and my own life. surprisingly it worked

kataras P.O.V

I woke up coughing up the water in my lungs and turned onto my side in the hard concrete floor. wait. concrete floor?! I sat up quickly to look at my surrounding. bad idea. Before I knew it I was slumping back onto the floor but familiar warm hands caught me and I looked up to smile to my husband.

"Not too quickly," he gently commanded

I chuckled and leaned against his chest, enjoying the warmth has was providing me before looking around. We seemed to be in some sort of.....temple? That's when it hit me. but it couldn't be. could it? I mean yeah we were searching for the lion temple, but to be honest I thought it was nothing but  myth. There was so little written about it. you must be asking, then why search for it? well it wouldn't be the first time I went on a wild goose chase. Luckily for me, my brother Sokka and his wife Suki loved my children and would often volunteer to care for them
