The Water Chief and the FireLord (Zukka)
[I wrote this awhile ago but never posted it]
preview:
I was walking the streets of the Northern Water Tribe. It reminded me of the conversations I had with Princess Yue about 10 years ago.
"Let's do an... activity together-" I remember telling her. We laughed about it until her death.
-
But this day, I'm not here so Aang can learn Waterbending or for me to flirt with a girl. Katara wanted her second child--her first daughter- to be born in the Northern tribe.
I found myself sitting on a bench by a pond, but close enough to the hospital where my sister and the Avatar were.
As time went on, I noticed that almost all my friends were married.
Zuko had Mai (pretty sure) and I didn't know about toph, if she had a love life or anything. "I hope Toph's okay." I think to myself.
then it dawns on me.
I have Suki!
I jumped up and ran to my home - yes, I have two houses. As the Chief of the Southern tribe, I own two homes - anyway, I open the door and notice aFire Nationn messenger hawk.
No. not just any messenger hawk. It was Hawky!
"How 'ya been, Hawky?" I ask my old friend. He doesn't remember me, and squawks and flaps his wings in my face, messing up my hair, and placing a letter in my hand, then flying out an empty window.
I eagerly open the scroll and notice it's Suki's handwriting. I began to read. Before i knew it, tears were rolling down my face and onto the page...
"Take this to Firelord Zuko in the capital city in the fire nation," I command the bird. I don't have to say anything more and the messenger hawk is on its way.
I take a detour to the spirit oasis, the last place I had seen Yue - now Moon-Spirit Yue- and sit on a rock by the pond, watching the spirit fish swim in a circle.
I felt tears start welling up and I left.
