The war ended 6 years ago. It's been two years since Zuko and Katara have seen each other. The Gaang tries to see each other as much as possible, but as time goes on, it gets harder. During a much needed break, the Gaang reunites to celebrate Suki and Sokka's engagement. When an inconvenience joins the group, Katara and Zuko are faced with the decision to either give into their feelings which have been bubbling under the surface for nearly 7 years, or do what their respective nations expect of them. Or Zuko and Katara are lovesick idiots and life keeps getting in the way (Also Published on AO3 under username: Moonchild1998

After Zuko joined the gang Katara still didn't trust him when everyone did. But, when Zuko made it up to her. It all changed...

The healer, Katara. Studying to be a nurse by day, the Painted Lady healing the sick by night. The thief, Zuko. A business major who may have bitten off more than he can chew. A modern day take on ATLA with the ending you wanted. [Zutara. Modern AU. Love square Blue Spirit and Painted Lady. COMPLETED.] "I thought you said this class was going to be easy," Zuko grumbled. "It was!" Sokka insisted. "We have a quiz and a paper due this Friday," Zuko countered. Sokka shrugged. "Maybe it's the teacher you signed up for." "Yeah, maybe." Sokka held up his old schedule and looked it over, then grabbed a second schedule that was on his desk and held it up to compare the two. "Uhh, what was the class code again?" "BIO 113." Sokka's face puckered. "I may have discovered the problem." Zuko groaned. Past 'discoveries' with Sokka had taught him to expect the worst. "What?" "You picked up the schedule off my desk?" Sokka asked. "Yeah?" "And signed up for the Intro to Biology class listed?" he continued. Zuko's voice had more frustration in it this time. "Yes." "It wasn't my old transcript you were looking at. Katara gave me a copy of her schedule this year...the code you used was for my sister's class." Zuko blinked. "Your sister who is studying to be a doctor?" Sokka nodded slowly with a grimace. "I'm in a Pre-Med biology class?!" "Yeah..." Sokka trailed off. "That's rough, buddy."

This is a work of fanfiction that was inspired by Avatar the Last Airbender, specifically the Season 2 Finale. The story follows the Gaang in alternate storyline where Zuko finds the right path sooner. At "The Cross Roads of Destiny" Zuko decides to join Team Avatar after connecting with Katara over the loss of their mothers. Katara sees that Zuko has just been lost up until this point and uses the spirit water on his scar. *Some things have obviously been changes to suit the fanfic.*

Katara has been different since her mother's death. She buries herself in books and work, trying to distract from the pain. And Zuko's life is far from perfect. His mother is gone, his father is abusive, and his sister hates him. People seem to avoid him just because of the scar on his face. So when he gets dared to make Katara his girlfriend, saying if he did so he would get paid, he doesn't expect anything to come out of it. Then he begins to spend time with her and realizes maybe he wants something to come out of it. Now he needs to keep the dare a secret. But what will happen when a certain person makes it their mission to reveal the truth? *Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar the Last Airbender or any of its characters. I also do not own the cover art*

An Au, where Katara is found to be the last water bender, she is taken from her home and brought to the Fire Nation where she is thrown in front of Fire Lord Ozai, who takes her in, hoping that one day she could become a great asset in his war

All kids gotta go to school. Katara and her friends just happen to go to the most hard-to-get-into fighting academy in the nation. An academy that includes sword skills, different forms of martial arts, and all forms of bending: Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. Katara is one of the best Water benders in her class. She has an amazing group of friends and an incredible boyfriend. Only lately he's been a kind of a jerk which is annoying because she already has to deal with Zuko. A guy who her brother hates and who everyone thinks is a spoiled rich kid. But what happens when she sees the other side of Zuko? Highest rankings #1 in Zuko #1 in Zutara #1 in bending I do not own any artwork or characters from Avatar: The Last Airbender. All that awesomeness is from the creators of ATLA. Besides the story plot, that's all me.
