------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When two souls meet each other
-I don't believe that you'll have to make this trip right now, - Aang comments as Katara finishes packing her stuff
It had been years since the end of the Hundred Years War, and even with Katara being considered the world's biggest waterbender, the Avatar couldn't help but feel worried whenever his girlfriend traveled alone.
-It will be quick, when you least notice im gone I'll be back already - Katara responds giving a kiss on the forehead of Aang, making him smile.
-But wait, you will miss the meeting - Aang comments remembering the commitment he had with Lord Zuko
-Republic City was your and Zuko's idea, don't get me wrong but you know I don't like these political issues - Katara responds heading towards Appa, who was waiting outside the house. Aang uses the airbend to put Katara's two suitcases on her flying bison and soon they say goodbye
-I wish I could go with you," Aang comments as Katara climbs Appa. -Take care of her for me, buddy.- Aang ends up petting Appa, pulling away just before the flying bison goes on.
After a few hours flying near the clouds, Katara soon sees the sanctuary hrine hidden by the mountains, deep in the fire nation territory
-It's always an honor to welcome you Master Katara - The trio of seniors offer their greetings as soon as the famous waterbender comes down from Appa.
-It's always an honor to be here. - Katara responds greeting the trio but soon her expression changes - How is she?
-Come on, I'll explain to you on the way- says JoJo, the lady who ran the place. While starting to walk alongside Katara - It has been very difficult, the chi blockers has to visit her every two hours
-Sorry for bring her here, I didn't know what to do.- Katara had sometimes regretted what she had done and the weight she had put on their lives.
-It is our duty to help anyone who comes looking for us. But tell me, does the fire lord Zuko know his sister is here? - The old woman asks and Katara lowers her head and answers negatively - It's better this way, at least for now.
-I don't know, I feel like I'm betraying Zuko, Aang and everyone - Katara replies with regret
From the day everyone learned of the story of Zuko's mother, and after Azula escaped. Katara start to had strange dreams, they all had Azula as protagonist. Until one day, for some reason, she drifted off the route she was taking to the North Pole and followed where her intuition led her. And was there with the dirt and mug that she found the once proud princess
Of course, as soon as she saw Katara, Azula attacked but she was no longer the great firebender that once was. And with the help of some villagers from a nearby village, including some chi blockers, Katara managed to immobilize Azula and bring her to this sanctuary.
-I'll leave you alone, don't worry, her chi is blocked - JoJo says opening the bedroom door for Katara
Azula is lying in a fetal position on a simple bed with her back to the door. This was an image Katara would never expect to see
-Why are you here ? - Azula asks without moving a muscle.
-How are you? - Katara responds closing the door while Azula lets out a shy laugh
-You knew only idiots answer a question with another question.- Azula brings out what's left of the sassy princess she once was. She then sits facing Katara who is standing in front of her. -Why did you bring me here? Why do you want to come visit me?
Azula was totally different, the once aggressive and angry countenance had given way to a sad look that made her golden eyes look gray.
-To be honest I don't even know the answer - Katara comments sitting on the edge of the bed, very close to Azula - I think… the truth is I feel connected to you somehow
Azula then forces a loud laugh
-You must be crazy if you are looking for similarities between a princess and a disgusting peasant girl.-
Azula had been unkind to Katara in the last three visits, as if the fact that Katara had practically saved her life infuriated the princess even more .
-We are two young women without a mother, our parents were at war and we had only our sometimes stupid brothers - Katara's speech made Azula smile slightly, remembering Zuko. It was the first time Katara had seen her smile, even shyly.
-Indeed. How is Zuzu? - Azula asks looking genuinely interested
-He's doing very well. He and Mai have been together since… - Katara then remembers Agni Kai, remembers the day she and Zuko defeated Azula.
-From the day you defeated me. You can say it, it's not like I'm going to throw a fireball in your face right now so- Azula completes, making fun of her situation.
It is notorious that that day still haunts the young princess, that defeat had changed Azula forever and her reunion with Ursa, her mother, only made things worse.
-If that woman had not entered my head, you would both be in the fire lord's prisons. Or dead - Azula comments finally raising her head and staring at Katara, making the waterbender notice the marks around Azula's eyes, she should have cried a lot before her arrival.
Katara is aware of this, in fact, she doesn't know if they would be able to fight Azula if she hadn't broken shortly before Agni Kai. As much as she trusted Zuko's abilities, Katara knew that Azula was still superior.
Then, all Of sudden, Azula jumps on Katara trying to strangle her.
-It was all your fault, you filthy peasant! - Azula shouts in tears. She not only sees Katara, the girl who actually defeated her, but also her mother.
Katara can easily get rid of the attack without even making use of her powerful bending. And right after being pushed by Katara, Azula just leans back on the bed and continues to cry while screaming for Katara to leave.
-I'm not going anywhere.- Katara responds while being ignored by Katara
-How could she leave me? - Azula responds through tears keeping in mind not only her mother but also Mai and Ty Lee - Always Zuko, what does he have that I don't have? I'm better than him but she always preferred him! She never loved me!
Katara then approaches Azula once again and touches her hands that are covering her face.
-I won't leave you. I promise. - Katara's words capture Azula's attention that in an unimaginable attitude, she hugs the waterbender
-I hate you! I hate you so much, I hate this place! Azula says beside Katara's ear while the waterbender hugs her back even though Katara is shocked by Azula's unimaginable action.
-I can handle it - Katara replies as Azula cries into her shoulder.
The two stay there for a while, Katara just listens to all the words, all the anger, the hurt, the fear of Azula. But soon it is time for Katara to leave and the chi blockers enter the room to do their work. It made Katara heartbroken but she knew that for now this was still necessary
JoJo then greets Katara at the entrance to Azula's room and heads to guide her back to Appa.
-When I saw the bags I thought I would stay here for a few days - JoJo comments when they arrive in the courtyard where Appa was waiting for them
-Unfortunately I can't, I told Aang and everyone that I was going to visit Grandma and, well, that's what I'm going to do now- Katara responds by giving JoJo a hug and thanking her for everything. - JoJo, Azula was very sentimental today.-
-Yes, it's part of the treatment. Princess Azula is drinking a powerful tea that stir memory and memory is where feelings live. She needs to put all those bad feelings out before she really starts to change and grow - JoJo answers shortly before Katara climbs Appa and heads to the South Pole where her grandmother was.
She hadn't even go to far but she already wanted to go back, wanted to hug Azula and say that everything would be all right. It was a feeling Katara couldn't explain because she also knew it made no sense to feel it after all Azula had done.
But still, she couldn't stop thinking about the fire nation princess and how badly she wanted to be with her, help her
