Chapter 17: The Siege of the North - Part 1

Days have passed,  Katara is set to spar with a young boy named Sangok. She eyes her opponent with a look of determination. Sangok looks at her with a frightened expression on his face, shaking slightly. He summons a globule of water, freezes it into an iceball, and fires it at her. Katara, however, is quick to melt the iceball and, turning around swiftly, bends a wave of water at him, which she proceeds to freeze, thus suspending Sangok in an icy trap.

Pakku displeased. "Nice try, Pupil Sangok. A couple of more years and you might be ready to fight a sea sponge." He unfreezes the ice; Sangok falls to the ground dazed. "Would anyone care for a rematch with Katara?"

Several students sitting by the sidelines, all of them to be tired and unamused. "Katara, you've advanced more quickly than any student I've ever trained."

Katara, smiles brightly.

"That was also an excellent battle coming from you, Avatar Himura. Well done..."

"Thank you, master. But I still have a lot to learn..." Kenshin bows.

He turns to Aang and scowls irritably. "Raw talent alone is not enough." Aang who is lying on the ground with a lazy smile, floating Momo around on an airball above him.  "Pupil Aang!"

Aang stops bending at the sound of his name; Momo lands on his head. " Yes, Master Pakku?"

"Care to step into the sparring circle? I figure since you've found time to play with house pets, you must have already mastered waterbending." he said Sarcastically.

Aang jumps off the ground with airbending.  "I wouldn't say mastered, but check this out."

He twists around, bending some snow around him to make a snowman of himself, which Momo knocks over.

"Oro." Kenshin wide eye shocked. Pakku and Katara who wear similar expressions of disdain. Pakku shakes his head in disappointment, while Katara looks on in irritation.

It was about a few weeks you've been under Admiral Zhao's command. He had conducted an entire fleet of soldiers to storm the Northern Water Tribe. When you did get there, all of the ships lined up, forming a front to keep everyone in the Water Tribe at bay.

There would be no escape for any of them. You stayed in the room given to you on the ship all day. Fireballs were shooting everywhere towards the water tribe and they were fighting back.

But then... it was still. What happened?! Did the Fire Nation win already?

A knock on your door. You allowed them access and Zuko closed the door behind him. You get up and hugged him. "Brother, what's happening out there?" You asked as you leaned back from the hug, but not out of his arms.

"They've stopped their attack for now. The moon is about to rise. The waterbenders draw their power from the moon and it is nearly full tonight. Zhao wants to wait and resume the attack at daybreak."

You nod.

"Uncle is supposed to meet me on the lower outside deck."

"I'll come to see you off as well." He nodded and the two of you part. He left your room and resumed his act of a soldier.

{~With Kenshin~}

Katara and Aang are training with Master Pakku, Sokka is getting into a decent relationship with Princess Yue, and Kenshin was  doing really well with his air and water, his are little ways away from mastering it, though. A few more months practicing should do the trick! All is well.

Suddenly, black soot starts raining from the sky. What is going on?

Alarms are being sounded and Kenshin is rushing to find Aang.
