Tenzin-Aang, set IDK.

It just wasn't fair.




Tenzin is silent - even more so than usual, which is a hard thing to manage, since whenever he is in his training robes he is always more somber than other boys his age. But as soon as he decided to look down at the floor, he bolts through a window.

Katara bends down and picks up the newly-shorn wolf tail and breathes heavily.

"Don't even think about chasing him, Aang. He wouldn't listen to anybody right now."

Not that his mother blames him - even with one foot in two worlds, he just gave up a piece of his Water Tribe self.

No, she thinks. We made that decision for him.

"Can you tell where he is?"

She's not wrong, and he knows it, but this simple fact does nothing to quell the anguish in his heart.

It's her question that prompts him to turn his attention from the window his son had used for his speedy retreat, to the wolf tail in her hands.

"I have a few good guesses in mind. I could find out for certain, but that might fall under the heading of chasing him." His attempt at smiling falls flat.
