Take a look around.

The four friends rushed over towards the little market, quickly buying some fresh fruits for lunch. All of them were quite hungry, and they would definitely come back to the village to load in some more supplies for on the road with Appa. However, Katara's attention was once again grabbed by that same handsome earthbender, and she quickly followed him inside one of the stores. She overheard him talking to his mother, and decided to ask for an explanation.

"Hey! You're that hottie." Momo had walked in behind her and giggled softly as she stuck out her tongue at Katara. The lemur spirit had been able to get to know the Avatar and the two Water Tribe siblings more over the past weeks, and she had been able to tell how interested Katara was in this mysterious boy.

"You.. You must be confused." He tried to get rid of these people, but Aang and Sokka had wandered into the store themselves. "No, they're not. We saw you, throwing around rocks and such! Very impressive.." Aang started, and the earthbender's mother rushed over to shut the door and close the curtains. She started scolding the boy whose name was apparently Haru, clearly not happy about the fact that he had been earthbending outside. She mentioned that it was too dangerous, which made Aang frown in disbelief. How could it be dangerous to train such a wonderful craft?

"Mom! I didn't earthbend, they are just insane! I mean, look at them." Haru groaned out, gesturing over at the four strangers. The bald man with blue tattoos all over his body. Someone carrying a boomerang. Some kind of strange lemur-lady barely dressed in any clothes. And well, the girl that had rudely barged into the store and was honestly one of the hottest women he had ever seen - maybe she looked the most normal as well, he realized...

Before anyone could ask questions, there was a loud knock on the door. "Open up, NOW." The firm voice spoke up, and Haru's mother rushed over to open up.

A burly man entered, dressed in the attire of a Fire Nation general. The tension inside of the store would raise to high levels with him there, but everyone tried to act normal. Pretending like they were looking around the store, while the general gave them a curious look. Not that he cared too much, but he had clearly never seen that many people inside there. He turned back to Haru's mother, gesturing over towards the counter. "I've already paid this week." She mumbled, but he laughed. "We've just increased taxes. I don't care, you better pay me some way." He threatened, and she sighed. Handing over her last silver coins.

And just like that, the general stormed outside, leaving not a single penny behind.

"How... How long has the Fire Nation been here?" Sokka asked, and Haru sighed. He figured he might as well trust these people, as they didn't have too much to lose anyhow. Maybe it would convince them to keep their mouths shut about his earthbending as well, as he really didn't want to put himself or his family in danger. He started telling about how the Fire Nation had come a couple of years ago to take over the coal mines nearby. They steal most of the supplies, barely leaving anything behind for the locals. Earthbending was forbidden. None of them could understand why, but especially Aang and Katara couldn't grasp the fact that Haru would actually listen! He had a real gift, and he could use it to help people if he wanted. That really seemed to upset his mother, as she walked out the back followed by Haru himself.

"My mother says you can stay here for the night, but you should really leave tomorrow," Haru said. Together with Katara, he had found his way outside after a heated discussion with his mother. Clearly, he had vouched for these strangers, not wanting to send them out in the dark. His heart was in the right place, and the two of them went for a walk up the nearby hill. Katara's curiosity seemed to get the better of her and so she carefully asked him why he was so afraid to be exposed as an earthbender. She was grasping onto his strong arm from the side as the two of them walked, and she could feel how he hesitated. "Because... When the Fire Nation came, they captured all earthbenders who tried to defend the village. Sent them off to some kind of prison, and we've never seen them again ever since."

Katara's heart dropped. She knew the situation was bad, but it seemed worse than she could've ever imagined! The two of them had settled down on a rock, not saying a word - and usually, when there were awkward silences, Katara got horny. She wanted to fill it up with something, and it usually led to herself being filled up. Without thinking about it at all, she slid up into Haru's lap and wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders. Looking down into his brown eyes as she shoved her hips against his growing dick, grinning softly. Right before she could go for the finishing blow and kiss him, they heard a scream in the distance.

Both of them stood up. Katara's nipples were very obviously poking through her dress and Haru's cock was hard as steel - ironic, isn't it? - as they started rushing over towards the sound. Sure, they wanted each other badly but they couldn't just ignore a call for help.

An old man had managed to get stuck under some rocks. He didn't seem to be hurt at all, but he was pinned down to the floor. Both of them immediately got moving as Haru's strong arms flexed when he started pushing against the rock above the poor old man and Katara tried pulling onto him. "You have to help him, Haru! There's no one around." Katara pleaded, yet the man still hesitated. She was right, it would be even worse to just let this man die here, and he used his earthbending to shove back the rocks and allow the old fellow to get back up to his feet.

"What is the meaning of this?" A familiar raspy voice could be heard, and Haru immediately looked behind him. The Fire Nation general was standing there with a couple of his soldiers. He must've heard the commotion and came over to check, but luckily he hadn't seen what happened so he didn't know that...

"He's an earthbender! And they were having sex, in public!" The old man ratted him out without thinking twice about it, probably he had been doing something shady inside of the mines so he'd rather throw Haru under the bus. The young man was captured in a matter of seconds and brought away by some of the soldiers. Katara got off with a warning, and she rushed back to the village to get her friends for help...
