Day-5~11:The Harem Queen's interrogation and Plot Begins

-Day 5-

Going into the icy house, Ky found Katara, Sokka, and Gran Gran ready with breakfast on the table.

"Look who's decided to join us? The house wrecker himself! I hope you slept well on your bed!" Sokka commented with clear animosity towards Ky after what he did to his igloo room.

"C'mon Sokka! You can't be hung on that until now... He apologized and you know it was an accident! Plus he saved us, so I think you should just let it go. Isn't that right, Kyky?" Even though Katara started off defending Ky while talking to Sokka, she soon turned to Ky and decided to do a little teasing, suddenly giving him a nickname longer than his actual name.

"Both of you should be focused on eating! Morning Ky, come here and sit, don't let the food go cold. Breakfast is a very important meal." Gran Gran scolded the siblings before inviting Ky to eat.

"Morning…" Forcing a smile, Ky sat there, and they all had breakfast together.

After that, Katara stayed behind with Gran Gran, while Sokka pulled Ky with him.

Once both were equipped with thick blue jackets, they went on the daily patrol together.

"Man, that's a typical patrol for ya, there's usually not too much going on around these parts." Sokka expressed with a smile as they tracked through the snow.

"Yeah... I mean… it's a snow tundra… not too much is gonna happen here… most of the time that is…" Ky replied with a bit of a serious tone.

"Yeah… I forgive you for destroying my room…" Sokka said.

"Thanks… I really didn't mean for it to happen…" Ky nodded.

"You know… it's been a while since I had anyone besides my annoying sister come with me for one of these..." Sokka sighed.

"…" Ky said nothing in return.

"It's a bit weird... I know we met a few days ago, but I feel like we get along pretty well all things considered…" Sokka continued.

"…" Ky stayed silent.

"I don't know how long you'll stay here with all the crazy stuff in your past or your amazing powers, but I just wanted you to know I really appreciate the little time we had… It's kinda like what I imagine having a cool younger brother would be… is that weird?… I hope that didn't come off weird..." Sokka spoke softly until he grabbed his chin and started questioning what he just said.

"I'm not leaving… not anytime soon at least, you weirdo." Ky chuckled at him before giving his response.

Grabbing Ky by the neck and putting him in a choke hold, Sokka began ruffling his hair.

"Hey! It's not my fault you're a weirdo! Blame yourself!" Ky rebutted despite not actually resisting at all.

"Shut up newbie! You should respect your elders!" Sokka jokingly added.

"And you should deserve respect! You can't even beat me." Ky expressed.

"Oh, is that so? How about a match? No powers just hands?" Sokka proposed with a smirk.

"I thought you'd never ask!" Ky smiled back.

Soon they both had created a distance between each other and were face to face, ready for a fight.

Holding a boomerang and a club, Sokka took the water tribe-style stance as he looked at Ky who took his familiar Muay Thai stance, looking back at his current opponent, empty-handed.

"Are you really sure you don't want a weapon?" Sokka questioned for what felt like the third time to Ky.

"No, I told you. I am the weapon." Ky replied not worried whatsoever.

"Fine, then… let us begin?" Sokka asked.

"Hell yeah!" Ky answered.

Immediately taking the signal, Sokka used the club to throw snow at Ky, obstructing his vision with a smokescreen.

"I can still get you easi-" Ky was speaking before Sokka's boomerang came from his forcing him to dodge left and as soon as he did so, in came the club going straight for his head.

Something Ky managed to block last second, but he was not prepared for the left hook that instantly processed it, as Sokka's left fist endented on his face, followed by a sweet right hook, and knee to the stomach combo, before he was tackled a knocking him back.

Ky soon found his footing as he got touching his face, surprised and newly renewed on his perspective on Sokka.

(He's not weak, at least not the one in front of me right now. I have to take him seriously or he'll actually beat me…) Ky told himself as he once again took his stance, while Sokka grabbed his club off the snow and caught his returning boomerang.

"You were saying?" Sokka taunted.

"Well played, but it's not working again." Ky responded right before he charged at him.

In response, Sokka threw his boomerang which Ky dodged but was aware that it could and would come back.

As Ky was dodging the boomerang, Sokka also charged at him and decided to slide on the snow aiming at his legs with his club, what he didn't expect was that the R master would use this chance to stomp on his face.

At that time, the boomerang came back and hit Ky on the back of his head pushing him forward.

Rolling back into position, Ky saw Sokka get up with the marks of what just happened on his face as he grabbed the boomerang that fell to the ground after hitting the R master.

"You have strong legs…" Sokka complanied as he touched his face.

"That boomerang is very annoying…" Ky complanied back.

From then on, the battle continued with a fair exchange where both parties did what they could to put the other down, but alas things came to a halt.

*Huff* *Huff* *Huff* "I admit, you're a great fighter... I have a lot I could learn from you." Standing at the top as he looked down at Sokka on the ground, Ky's face bruised and swollen, he respected his opponent and extended a helping hand to him.

"No stealing! I have to keep my style unique… if a super talent like you gets their hands on it there goes my one cool thing… I mean, aside from my handsome face, that is. I would rather be stealing from you!" Sokka who was equally bruised and swollen took his hand and got up.

"Whatever! We need to do this more often… how about daily training?" Ky suggested.

"Of course! That's the most effective way to steal your moves." Sokka joked.

Both chuckled at each other and laughed their way through the daily patrol until they got back home.

The rest of the day was not too eventful with the two of them helping by taking care of the kids in the village, then going for dinner and sleeping time.

-Day 6-

On this day, Sokka was called by some of the older women in the village to help repair some broken furniture and tools. However, not being too familiar with him, Ky was rejected and not allowed to be there.

"Hey, something wrong?" Katara asks in a soft voice as she looks at Ky. She was not sure how he was feeling, but he looked a bit sad. When he turned towards her, her eyes lit up a little, and with a slight smile, as she looked at him.

She sat down next to him on the couch. She noticed that he was looking down so she put her hand gently on his shoulder. "Do you want to talk about it?" Katara asks quietly.

"It's nothing much, it's just a little jarring to get rejected like that... I get it though." Ky responds.

She sighs. "Yeah, I guess they can be a bit cold and unfriendly to outsiders. I know it's not personal, but I can imagine it is a rather unpleasant experience nonetheless." She gets a bit closer to him as they sit together on the couch. They are quite close to each other already.

She looks at him with a concerned look. She then put her hand on his arm, lightly stroking it, trying to comfort him. "It'll be alright. They are just not quite used to having outsiders around here.

"Don't take it personally… they just don't know you and after all the fire nation put everyone through, it's just not easy to look at outsiders with kind eyes…" Katara spoke to Ky with somber eyes as she touched his arm.

"It's ok… I get it… I think they are the normal ones… you and your family are just too good to be true…" Ky smiled softly as he replied to her.

"Are we? Hey! I'll tell you right now, that we are very hash and have been judging your every move behind your back!

"Sometimes you chew too quickly, and you tend to avert your gaze when talking to someone you appreciate, also the way you always look sad to see others sad even though you don't usually interfere, and the way you handle kids is surprisingly good, you have a lot of energy… and, and… what? Why are you looking at me like that?…" Katara spoke with confidence trying to tease him a bit but ended up rambling on for too long without realizing it.

"You pay a lot of attention." Ky simply replied with a smug.

"That's!… I… I just like knowing people better! It's something I do subconsciously, OK?!" Katara got defensive upon realizing what she had just done.

"I'm happy you like knowing me. I'll keep that in mind." Ky kept the smug as he replied.

Not another word was exchanged as a half-blushing Katara simply punched Ky's shoulder before getting up and trying to storm off, however, he stopped her grabbing her hand and pulling her back close, which only made her blush deeper, as he basically hugged her as he spoke.

"Whoa, relax… I'm going to need your help if I want the people here to give me a chance, and I hope you don't mind staying with me to help, right?"

She didn't expect their conversation to turn into an actual hug, but it felt nice to be so close to him. She wrapped her arms around him gently and leaned into his touch. "I don't mind staying with you at all. I know most of the people in this tribe are not too happy about your presence here, but I think if we can show them how kind and helpful you can be, maybe they will start to change their minds about you." She says as she hugs him tighter for a moment, and then she lets him go. Her eyes meet his for a second.

"That's what I hope can be done… after all, you're the one who's familiar with things here. So any ideas on how we can go about doing this?" Ky asks with a wide smile looking at her with averting eyes.

Katara thinks about his question for a second as she looks down for a moment. Then she looks at him again with a warm smile. "Maybe we could hold some kind of an event where people get to see what you are capable of? I was thinking that maybe some people still doubt that you could be useful for our tribe, but if they see for themselves what you can do, then we could even convince some of them to change their minds." She continues talking and starts heading toward the kitchen, with him following.

"Do you like this idea?" She asks, looking at him eagerly.

"That… could work… I think. It's worth a try, that's for sure." Ky replied unsure and a little hesitant but willing to give it a shot.

She smiles widely and look at him. "Okay, well, then I will try to plan something as soon as I can." She nods her head with a confident look.

"Oh, and thank you for spending so much time with me lately. It's been really nice to have someone to talk to again, after spending so much time alone." She looks at him with sparkling eyes.

"Well, I have to focus on this now, we can talk later." She says as they reach the kitchen and she tries to hide her blushing from him.

Before she enters, he once again pulls her to him very close, and this time, he kisses her forehead. "There, now you'll have good luck the rest of the day… I have to make sure the plan works, somehow. See you later." Ky speaks then turns around and leaves before she can say anything back. Though he too had some blush.

Her face turns bright red as she can feel his warm touch while he kisses her forehead. She was pretty sure she wasn't expecting that, but she was not completely sure. She could feel her face burning and she noticed her eyes looking after him as he walked away.

She slowly walked into the kitchen still blushing. Once she was alone in the kitchen, she couldn't help but start laughing in disbelief about something that just happened. "What just happened?" She whispered to herself.

As she stood there in the kitchen, alone with her thoughts, she kept thinking back to what just happened. She noticed that she was smiling widely and her heart beat faster than ever, making her feel excited and happy at the same time. But why does she feel this way?

She looked out the window and noticed a couple birds chirping outside. The snowstorm seemed to be gone and the sky was even turning a bright blue. Then an idea comes to mind. "I have an idea!" she whispered to herself with a wide smile.

She turned to face the kitchen table and grabbed a piece of paper and a pencil. Then she started to scribble down the basic idea for her plan. Once she finished writing a couple of sentences, she smiled softly and then quickly got to work.

The next couple of hours passed by quickly as she used her paper and a pencil to write out her plan for the event. As she finished writing a few additional details, she noticed her arm is shaking a little bit.

Once Katara finished her plan she put the paper aside, then stood up from the table, and stretched to relieve the stress she just felt while writing. Her face turned into a warm smile and she shook her head in disbelief.

"Am I actually excited for this event? How did this happen?" Her face turned red again. "Oh no, it's that boy. I think I like him … or something." She whispered to herself in a confused tone.

She went to put the paper she had just written on aside from the kitchen counter. Then she started to walk out of the kitchen when suddenly, she heard a faint noise coming from outside of her house.

Coming outside her house, Katara found Ky covered in snow.

She noticed him standing outside in the snow and immediately ran towards him. "You're covered in snow. Why are you outside?" She asked as she hurried towards him.

He probably didn't notice her blushing as she looked at him, since his face was covered in snow, but she felt her face warming up all of a sudden.

"I was trying something with my gravity bending, but as you can see… it didn't work…" Ky responded with a sigh.

She looked at him with a bit of concern on her face. "Are you okay?" She asked, not wanting to risk anything happening to him.

"Do you need any help? Should I take you inside and change your clothes?" She asked with a slightly worried tone. He doesn't seem to be too bothered by it, but she doesn't seem to be able to calm down now.

"Relax, I'm ok. It could have been worse. Oh… now that I think about it, how's the event idea coming together? I was thinking about it and think I have a solid idea, but you go first." He says as he shakes off the snow, coming out a bit wet but ultimately okay.

She sighs in relief as he tells her, he is fine. She then looked at him for a second, thinking if she should really tell him her idea. "I'll tell you if you promise not to laugh?" She then says this as if it's supposed to be a fair deal.

Katara looks at him, hoping he promises because she actually wants to tell him.

"Yeah… I promise to not laugh… I guess… what's your plan?" Ky got curious and looked at her with his eyebrow raised.

She started to blush as she noticed the look on his face. "Okay, here it goes." She took a deep breath to make herself more confident as she started speaking.

"You said how you were thinking about how to show the people a reason to like you, right? Well, what if we put on some kind of a performance?

"You could demonstrate an ability to the people here through a show, so they can see for themselves what you are capable of." She says, still smiling a bit shyly.

"So we basically had the same idea… I wanted us to perform together in other to show my gravitybending in contrast to your waterbending. We could do something pretty if we really try. There's nothing to be embarrassed about, you put my hopes up for nothing." He says with fake disappointment in his face as he smiles at her.

She laughed loudly when she saw the fake disappointment on his face. "You're making it really easy for me to like you, I hope you realize that." She says with a teasing look on her face, but her eyes smile at him warmly.

"And yes, I agree that doing something like this together could be really fun. We could even perform our moves in sync." She grins, looking at him with sparkling eyes.

"Bingo! Great minds think alike that's what the elders used to say. I guess they did have a point. I just never thought I would meet a great mind as pretty as me… I guess I was a like rash." He smirks at her.

Katara laughed loudly and shook her head. "You are so confident about your looks and you aren't even trying to hide it.

"But that's fine because you are right. I mean, you are handsome." Then She sees his reaction and quickly adds.

"Oh, um, sorry, that- " She quickly cut herself off, flustered. She didn't know how to respond to his comment, so she just looked at him with a slightly red face.

"Don't worry, that's the typical reaction." Ky put a front but was blushing just as hard as her.

She laughed loudly. "So, you like it when people flirt back with you, huh?" She raised an eyebrow playfully as she looked at him.

"You don't seem too bothered by all the compliments I give you." She says with a small smirk as she shook her head. "I'm beginning to think you must be used to it." She grins softly and continues.

"Well, I don't wanna make you feel uncomfortable… but that doesn't mean I'm planning on stopping, you know." She whispers teasingly.

"Do what you must, just be ready for retaliation!" Ky swiftly grabs snow from the ground and makes it into a snowball and he throws it as soon as he says "retaliation!".

She quickly reacted to his snowball and catch it mid-air before it hit her in the face. "You know, you're not going to win if you try to start a snowball fight with me." She says with a cocky attitude and a teasing grin as she looked at him.

She then took a snowball from the ground and threw it at him, just to prove her point.

"Sheesh… repel." Ky tried to use his gravitybending to repel the show ball, but he instead attracted it straight to his face.

She laughed loudly as she saw his snowball going in a full circle and straight into his face. "Not that easy to deflect, huh?" She whispered with a triumphant voice as she took another snowball from the ground in case he wanted to continue.

"It was a fluke… but since you insist, why not." Ky made snowballs and threw them at her from different angles.

She quickly dodges his snowballs as they go in every direction. She catches a few, and some of the others fall to the snow next to them. "This is fun!" Katara said with a wide smile as she moved around to avoid the incoming snowballs he was throwing at her. She seemed to be having a great time as she threw a snowball back at him, occasionally just to keep up with his attacks.

Ky kept throwing snowballs at him while dodging and begin encroaching on him. "I'll soon win… don't worry." He claimed.

She kept laughing and moving around to avoid the snowballs he kept nthrowing at her. Even when she got hit with some of the snowballs, they never fail to make her laugh. "Oh, really now? You really think you are gonna beat me?" She asks him in a playful tone as she kept throwing snowballs at him.

"I think you're in for a surprise." Katara said with a smug expression.

The battles goes on until eventually Ky tackles Katara to the ground with a snowball in hand and he then speaks while sitting on her legs. "Surrender, don't force me to end this."

Katara, who got tackled to the ground quickly, then looked up at Ky mischievously. She laughed, but then quickly tried to take the snowball away from him, however that was not the end as she used this opportunity for something else. "No way!" She loudly proclaimed as she quickly turned it around and made him lay down on the ground like she was just an instant before then said. "So you can surrender instead!"

Looking up at her as she now had him cornered, Ky pulled her face very close to his and he said. "Do it, I dare you…"

As he pulled her face closer to his, their lips are almost touched. She got a bit surprised by his sudden move and turned bright red almost immediately. She tried to think of something to say, but the only thing coming to her mind was...

"You don't play fair." She whispered to him in a soft voice as she looked at him with sparkling eyes.

"Playing fair against a goddess is a mortal's downfall. You can only blame yourself." Ky replied as he sneakily made another snowball and hit her while she was listening to him.

She got hit by the snowball directly on the chest, almost knocking her breath out. Once she caught her breath again, she laughed and quickly made another snowball. She then sneakily threw it at him while he was talking again, this time hitting one of his arms directly. "You are going down!" She whispered as she looked at him with the snowball in hand, ready to throw it at him again to continue the snowball fight.

"No, I'm not. I've had enough." Once Ky got close enough, he bear-hugged her and then said. "I'll let you go once you give up."

She turned bright red as he unexpectedly bear-hugged her, his body feeling warm right next to hers. She was so shocked by his sudden move that her eyes turned wide with surprise. "I- " She tried to speak but there was just no way she would give up now. She was not letting him win this fight that easily.

"I'm gonna keep fighting until you give up, okay!?" She declares mischievously, looking at him while he bear-hugged her.

"Even if I give you a losing consolation prize?" He says with a blush as he implies a kiss between them.

She blushes heavily as he brings up the idea of a consolation prize, and implies it to be a kiss between them. Her heart starts to beat quickly due to the sudden romantic implication.

She looks at his face as he looks down at her while bear-hugging her. She can see his blush. They stay like that for a moment.

"O- " Katara's voice was soft as she started to say something else, but her words were cut off by him leaning toward her face. Their lips were just about to touch, but he stopped.

"So, what's your answer?" Ky asks not intending to continue at all upon rejection.

She sighs softly, not wanting to stop the moment either. She whispers as she looks up at him, not wanting anyone else to hear them right now. "...yes." Barely being able to say it. She looks at his face once again, her heart beating fast. She can feel the heat of his body right next to hers.

She closes her eyes and leans into him, her lips about to touch his.

Seeing the obvious chance that even a professional fumbler could take, he went in for the kiss and while it was sloppy because of their lack of experience the emotion behind it alone made it a mesmerizing experience for both parties. After all, what is bad of good is not known.

The kiss held on for a few seconds, but then they slowly pulled away to catch their breath after what just happened.

"That... was amazing." She whispered to him with a bright smile on her face. She seems to be in a romantic, blissful haze right now as she looked at him with sparkling eyes.

She noticed that he was still holding onto her and laugh softly. "I guess I didn't win the snowball fight after all." She said with a playful tone.

"No, I'm too tricky and crafty for you." He shamelessly claims despite being 100% enamored by her and slightly out of breath.

She chuckled for a moment as she turned and look up at Ky. "So, you won the war to my heart?" She asked him teasingly with a playful tone. She then looked at him with a sly smile on her face. She was trying to hide the immense amount of butterflies in her stomach right now.

Katara then sat up and stretched, still having this blissful experience. Then, she looked at him once again and held out her hand for him to take as she asked him. "Come on, will you let me go?" She smiled at him.

Ky let go of her only to immediately pull her into a hug, a tight hug. "I hope we can give this a chance… but I'm not sure I'm a person you would want to be involved with at all."

Katara blushed heavily at his sudden hug but didn't seem to mind. She actually felt happy as he pulled her close to him. "Why do you say that? I don't feel like that at all." She again smiled at him, trying to reassure him, but something about his response made her feel a bit concerned.

"No, you don't understand… I prefer being upfront with you because I care… in my own way, but I'm not like most people, I have goals that would probably not be something you want for your partner..." Ky expressed with a sigh.

"Why don't you let me be the judge of that." She said with a smile that tried to hide the fact that she was actually concerned about how he was sounding right now. "Tell me about your goals. Maybe I'll understand if you explain it to me." She kept a smile on her face, but the butterflies in her stomach had once again come right back.

(This is probably going to be the stupidest thing I've done so far… but I'm this deep in…) Ky thought to himself as he sighed internally.

"Well… you might think I'm evil or crazy… but I want three things and they are pretty absurd… I first want freedom but not just basic freedom, I want true freedom the kind that most will never taste… second I want to rule this world… I want to make it all mine with the power to back that up…

"Third, and the one that might hurt you the most… I want a harem… I could not commit myself to only you, and indeed to pursue more women in the future… it's not your fault it's just who I am. You can ask anything questions you can right now, 'cause I imagine there a at least a few." Ky actually exposed himself even though he didn't say all there was to say, this was still a leap that one couldn't simply take.

She has to think for a second before she responds to him. "Well, it's true I have a few questions. You're telling me that you want freedom, but then you also tell me that you like to rule things. Aren't these two things completely contradicting each other?

"I also don't quite get what you mean by having a harem and not committing to only one person. I mean, if you have a harem of people, doesn't that mean you commit to more than one person at the same time? It seems like you would get confused if you have two or more romantic partners."

(This… it's not what I expected but I guess it works…) Ky was surprised but not about to let it roll passed.

"You're too good and understanding for your own good, but if you give me a chance I'll make sure to protect you, and that… now to answer you, yes freedom and control are in opposition but there's a reason for it. I am someone who pursues freedom so that I can control things and make them better… basically I'm greedy and quite selfish but it's people's fault for not being able to just coexist in the first place…

"Now about love.. I have a different perspective on love, as mine is directly tied to my lust… I understand if you don't want to be involved in it, but a singular woman would be unable to satisfy my needs." Ky continued to be mostly honest with her, omitting only a few minor and a major detail.

Katara stayed quiet for a few seconds as she processed everything he just said. Then she closed her eyes for a moment and thought to herself.

Once she finally opened her eyes again, she looked at him and gave him a soft smile, despite not really liking how their talk was currently going. "So, what you're saying is that... you don't love people? You just like to have control over them, just like you want control over the world?" She asked quietly.

(Is she trying to make me reconsider my world view?… I'm not doing that, I'll be a degenerate to the day I die!) Ky shook his head internally.

"In a way… that… even I didn't stop to think like that, but you're not wrong… I would still give you affection and never forget you, but yes. The way I would love to is different from the way you might feel about me right now.

"It doesn't mean I would treat you any worse than your typical person I'm quite possessive after all, and would make sure I'm doing the necessary to still have your love as a form of expressing my own twisted version of it." Ky was at this point being only half honest with his words.

She sighed softly, feeling a bit down about the direction their conversation was going right now. "So, you're telling me I'm just like everyone else. I thought I was special to you, but I guess I just fit into your criteria of what you want in a woman. And I am also just part of a harem you want to form." Her voice suddenly changes from kind to cold and sarcastic. She looked at him with a small smirk. "I mean, I don't mind being just a toy to you..." She said slowly as she got closer to his face.

(Shit!… This is not looking good… I've come this far, whatever happens, happens at this point.) Ky had a cold sweat.

"Not a toy, I get why you would think that way, but you are special. First, I wouldn't have said anything had I not fallen for you, and second, you are still my first and will stay that way if you stay with me from now on, third you don't have to do it, I'm telling you this so that I won't hurt you later.

"I understand if you don't want to be involved in something so unusual, but if you do take my hand, you will become the Queen and stand above the others even when they come in the future, plus I'm willing to tell you about everything if you are interested in knowing about any woman I add to the harem… again, I know this is bad and not something you ever imagined yourself as a part of… but if you give it a shot, I'll always give you my twisted distorted sense of love." Ky opened his poisoned mind and heart beyond common sense to express his sick views.

Katara looked up at him while considering his offer. For a moment, she considered saying yes just because she had gotten so attached to him in such a short period, but she knew this was not a good thing. Then suddenly, she got an idea. "Wait, before I answer your offer, I want you to answer a question for me." she got so close to his face that she was almost whispering in his ear.

"Why do you want me to be the queen of your harem?" She was interested in hearing what he had to say.

(Ok, I got this… just be sincere… I think…) Ky thought to himself.

(AN: Bro is Doomed💀)

"Well.. There are a few reasons, and let's start with the fact you are legitimately my first crush and someone, I want by my side… then there's who you are… you have the ability to understand and connect with others most would envy and not only that, you're a peacemaker willing to work to maintain peace among the people, and like you said yourself, you're observant and good at reading others…

"You are Katara and you would just make the perfect Harem Queen at least for me that is… that's why I want you to be mine. I understand if you refuse, but I hope you at least consider it." Ky poured what he gathered from the little time they had and also from his meta knowledge, but he was not lying.

She just stayed silent, thinking about his description of her and how he thought she would make the perfect harem queen. She felt her heart beating faster as her mind tried to understand his reasons for wanting her by his side.

After a few seconds of silence, she spoke in a soft voice. "Okay, you might have convinced me to give it a shot. Why do I get the feeling that you are just trying to use your charm to get me to say yes..." She looked at him with a playful smile, still close to his face.

(God! My heart… I was in a panic… I thought I was done for…) Ky was relieved things were not over yet.

(AN: Aint no way… Somehow bro made it…)

"Because I already want you and I'll try my best to have you by my side. The choice is yours, but I would rather a yes than a no. Oh and before you worry, yes I am willing to and will someday marry all my women, starting with you if you choose to become my Harem Queen." Ky expressed.

"Okay, okay, you don't need to try so hard. I will say yes!" She answered in a playful voice as she looked at him with sparkling eyes again."I am very interested in seeing how... this kind of love will work out. I've always wanted to experience something a bit more exciting in the romance department, and this offer sounds pretty damn exciting!"

She then whispers into his ear in the most sly voice she can produce. "I can already see myself as the perfect queen of this harem of yours!" She smiled mischievously.

(HELL YEAH! Victory for the harem route!) Ky internally celebrated.

"Yes? Yes?! YES! Beautiful! You are too good for this world!" He was so excited he just hugged her super tight and lifted her, before spinning her around without even thinking about it.

She let out a little surprised sound when he suddenly spun her around while still bear-hugging her and lifting her from the ground. She laughed softly at his response to her answer and smiled at him. "Hey..." She said playfully.

"You seem very excited... How many girls are you planning to have in this harem of yours exactly?" Her voice was still as smooth and sly as her face was happy and mischevious.

(Oh shit!… what do I even say?) Ky's panic returned.

"Hehehehe… huh… I don't know. It depends on how love happens… can't control it…" He immediately became shy and awkward… it was obvious he had something in mind and whatever it was, it was not small.

She giggled softly as he become shy and awkward. She noticed his reaction to her question about how many girls he wanted in his harem. It looks like this was not a small group of girls, but more like a big one. That's what she thought, little did she know that big was an understatement.

She put a finger on his lips and tried to stop him from being awkward. "Hey, don't be nervous now. I already gave you a yes." She says in a playful tone. She then looks closer at him, still holding her finger against his lips. "Just tell me... How many girls are you gonna have in your harem?"

(I see… so this is how I die…. Fair enough... I can't tell her I have a list of waifus… not yet…) Ky was prepared but not that prepared.

"I sincerely don't know… but I know it's going to be a big… no humongous titanic number… so, I guess we should assume infinity for now… but as I said, I'll immediately tell you about each and every girl before I do anything, and I won't advance until you are properly informed and have approved… I stutter a bit confessing how insane my idea actually is, though I am being sincere with my loyalty." Ky responded.

She looked surprised when he confirmed that she needed to be prepared to be one of a humongous titanic number of girls in his harem. At the same time, she liked his loyalty, as he said he wanted to inform her about every girl before he made advances on.

Then she looked up at him, with a teasing tone. "Oh, you don't want to say it out loud?" She said playfully, but she also looked concerned in some way.

"What do you need all those other girls for? Do you want them there just for your pleasure or for something else?" A sudden question was raised.

(She's trying to give me a heart attack... I have to pull the ancient excuse…) Ky smiled awkwardly.

"They are going to be mistresses to you the main wife as the Harem Queen, and they'll help you keep up with my unnaturally high libido, something I was born with… However, you will always be the top priority, something I'll inform them all after I get your approval to advance…" Ky was maybe being way too kind for Harem King by compromising so much, but everyone had their own methods… or something, he didn't know.

Katara stayed silent for a second and then burst into laughter. She looked at him for a bit confused, but also with a grin on her face. "Did you just say the mistresses will be there to help me keep up with your unnaturally high libido?" She asked with a teasing voice.

She then kept her smile, but her voice turned serious too. "So, I am the only one who is going to be your wife in a real sense?" She looked at him waiting for his answer.

(Damn… these questions…. She's really going hard…) Ky was out here sweating.

"Yes, I said I have an impossible libido… as being wives, you will be the first wife, main wife, and Harem Queen or even Empress, whatever of the two titles you prefer, but I will have more wives, but not the girls in the harem will marry me… I'm sure not all of them will want to anyway…" Ky responded with a sigh.

She nodded and made sure she understand his explanation. "Okay, let me see if I got this right.

"I am going to be the main wife and Harem Queen as well, but I won't be your only wife. In other words, I am going to be your wife, and the other wives will be more like mistresses to both you and me. Right?" She looked at him, hoping she understood his explanation correctly.

"Yes and no, they will be more like mistresses to me… you can and I hope you have relationships with them… just not romantic or sexual… before you point out how that's unfair, I know and I'm willing to follow other wishes you have to make up for being a greedy and selfish person…" Ky was still in a cold sweat as he replied.

She thinks about his words for a moment and then suddenly looks at him with a teasing tone once again. She takes his chin and places it in her hand with her palm as she looks at his face. "Don't be so harsh on yourself, my greedy and selfish king." She laughs.

Then, she gets closer to him. She was still holding his chin with her hand, and she didn't take it out of her hand. "So, just to make sure, these mistresses of yours... I have nothing to worry about, right? Because I am you're only REAL wife, right?"

Those words caused a little internal panic but Ky nodded.

So she got even closer to him and she spoke in a slightly playful tone this time. "And what if they start making a move on you? What if they want to take your time away from me? What if their looks make you look at them and give you ideas that I won't like?" Her voice was still joking, but her face was serious as she waited to hear his answer.

(She's not playing…) Ky wanted to cry.

"First... Yes, you are and will stay the main wife… I'm not changing that, only you can change that out of your own volition. Second, if they try to make a move on me, if I can avoid it I will, if I somehow can't avoid it I'll tell you and explain, and you're free to give me a punishment.

"Third, I'll make where you stand very clear to them, and I won't allow them to take your time, and if I somehow do, just tell me I'll correct my attitude. Fourth, If they give me ideas you don't like… You will have to tell me you don't like those ideas and we'll discuss them together and decide whether it's ok or not... So yeah, we have to talk and be sincere with one another, and I know you can do that, that's part of why I chose you… hahaha.." Ky did what he could and made it clear.

She once again just stayed quiet for a moment and then laughed softly. "Okay, okay. So, I don't need to worry about them then." She said teasingly.

She looked up at him and then got even closer to his face. "So, are you going to start introducing me to the other girls or not? I mean, if I am going to rule a harem with you, I want to know who the members of this harem will be." She said this with a sly tone.

"Yes… I'll introduce them to you personally once they have agreed to be a part of the harem. You will have the authority to give them orders and such… if they try anything stupid just inform me, but don't worry I'll build mechanisms to stop unnecessary conflict as much as I can." Ky was just slightly mentally tired by now.

She seemed slightly confused by his answer. "So, the other girls haven't agreed yet on being part of your harem?" She asked with a soft, but slightly teasing voice.

She then let the question hang in the air for a second before asking another question. "So, if you want a harem, then you must be looking quite actively for girls, right? I mean, you have some criteria or standards you are looking for, right?" She said this while looking at him with a bit of suspicion.

"I currently have no one aside from you… I was not joking when I said you were my first, cause I don't have any relationships with any other girls right now." Ky explained...

She blushed a bit when she first learned she was his first and that he didn't have any other girls already. "Okay... But... You say you have no relationships with other girls right now, but this doesn't mean you haven't tried to look for other girls, right?

"I mean, you must have some kind of criteria or standards that you want to meet when you look for other girls?" She said this in a teasing voice while looking at him with a curious smile on her face.

(I'm not telling you, you just happened to be the first waifu around…) Ky felt bad as he thought so.

"It's not that I haven't tried… I just never found anyone until I met you. As for my criteria… I don't really have any aside from following my guts… you as the Queen are special… that's why it took me so long to find you..." He lied through his teeth.

She nodded and stayed silent for a moment while she thought about his words. "So, I am the first and the only girl you have found then, right?" She asked while looking at him with a smile that seemed more genuine than her previous smiles. She was just asking some questions to learn more about him at this point.

"Yeah… you're not wrong." He responded not sure how she felt.

She looked at him with a soft smile as her expression turned back into a teasing one again. "So, this means... that I am special to you in some way!" Her eyes sparkled with amusement.

She kept the smile on her face and moved her face even closer to his as she talked. "So, tell me, my beloved king, what was it about me... that made you want me of all girls?" She raised her eyebrows in a curious way as she asked this question.

"I already told you that… you're not tricking me into saying it again…" Ky blushed at the thought of expressing his confession again.

She chuckled and looked at his face. "C'mon, it's not a big deal. Just admit it!" She says with a playful tone.

She then moved her face even closer to his while talking to him, smiling. "What's wrong, my love? Am I getting on your nerves just a little bit?" She was trying to mess with him while keeping that teasing tone in her voice.

"You already know you're special, what else do you want me to say?" Ky was for the first time experiencing the pain of having a girlfriend.

She let out a small laugh and look at his face. "I already know I am special for you, but I want to hear it." She had a mischievous expression and looked him in the eyes with a curious look as she said this to him.

As she kept looking at him, he could feel the warmth of her body as they were still very close to each other.

"Again? Fine… I choose you because you are special to me and I could never find anyone like you… happy now?" Ky was already tired and felt like this was never-ending.

She suddenly looked a bit serious and then get even closer to his face for a second. She looked him straight in the eyes as she answered him. "Happy, but not fully satisfied." She chuckled and started teasing him again.

"Tell me the whole truth, my love." She insisted with her face still close to his.

She took his chin with her hand again and looked at him playfully. "I also wanna know what it is about me that is so special." She said this in a serious tone while still keeping that teasing expression on her face.

"Everything… the way you talk, your hair, your eyes, the way you look at me, the way I feel when I look at you, your smell, your strength, and your personality… that and so much more… I just got lucky I could meet you." Ky gave up and blushed having to talk about this again.

She let out a soft laugh and looked at him as her face turned a little red. "I honestly never thought of myself as special." She said this with a soft tone. Then, she got even closer to his face while still holding his chin in her palm with her other hand.

Katara moved her hand in his hair ran her fingers a little through it and looked at him in the eyes. "Everything... you say?" She said this in a serious tone while still keeping that teasing smile on her face.

"Yes… I know what I said… Even though I would rather move on, I understood that I was asking so much of you that this was nothing in comparison." Ky just wanted to end this conversation.

She let out a small laugh and looked him in the eyes for a second while still having her hand in his hair.

Then she started talking again. "Why, thank you, my love, for your answer." She giggled a bit and then turned that teasing tone on her voice again.

"Your words were really sweet, and I honestly can say I enjoyed listening to your reasons why you chose me to be your first girlfriend." Her voice was still serious, but she could feel a bit of excitement in her tone.

"Of course… I would never find a queen like you anywhere… now, I think we should start planning when we will do in the event… remember, the event idea you had…" Ky was just saying words.

"Yes, right, the…" She stopped when she noticed his words change the conversation.

"Are we going to start with that planning now?" She asked this with a curious look on her face.

She looked at him while she felt her heart beating faster just as she remembered what exactly he was referring to by saying "event idea".

"Yes, you know the whole performance thing to help my reputation here… we can leave it for another occasion if it's too much right now." Ky was trying to find excuses to go rest.

She chuckled and shook his head. "I really don't mind." She said as she lifted her hand from his hair and took it away from his chin. She looked at him and then placed her hands on her lap. "Let's start the planning now if that's okay with you." She said this with a soft smile.

"Yes… so, I was thinking of an ice show-type performance where we dance together as we use our abilities to move the ice around… does your tribe have any traditional dances or anything of the sort?" Ky suggested.

Katara placed her hand under her chin for a moment as she thought about his question. "Yes, we do have traditional dance performances. They are very popular and we have one where the performers are on ice, for as long as the ice lasts." She chuckled a bit and then looked at him with a warm expression as she said this.

"But... Why just an ice show?" She asked this with an inquisitive and slightly surprised tone.

"It doesn't have to be, do you have something else in mind?" Ky decided to see what she was thinking about.

She shook her head and had a slightly mischievous expression as she answered him. "I don't have anything else in mind myself." She says this while her voice sounded like it's teasing him a little bit.

Then she asked him another question. "But... Do you have anything else in mind?" She said this in a curious tone.

(My brain…) Ky was going through it.

"Me? No… not that I know of… I just wanted to do the whole dance performance with you, and that's about it." Ky expressed.

She chuckled and looked at him with a wide grin on her face. "Oh, so you just want to have a dance performance with me. Well, in that case, I don't mind." She then winked at him as they were still very close to each other.

"Let's plan out our dance performance then." She said this while her face was still a bit mischievous.

"You're confusing me Katara… what are you trying to hint at? I'm legitimately confused…" Ky's brain was too fried to work.

She let out another small laughter and looked at him. "Oh, really?" She said this in a slightly playful voice.

"Then let's stick to planning the dance performance and forget anything besides that." She said this in a serious tone. "Do you know how the costumes you want to wear during the dance performance will look?" She asked this while looking at him curiously.

"And here I was thinking of kissing you if you explained things to me, I guess we'll just stick to planning the event then… OK, so I think we should go for costumes made of ice for the extra flare." Ky replied.

She chuckled at his remark and nodded her head. "Yes, let's make costumes made out of ice for our dance performance." She said this with a soft and serious tone of her voice.

Then she asked him a question with a curious expression. "Do you want it to be a couple dance? Just you and me? or what about a group dance? I mean, can the other girls be part of the performance as well?" She said this in a slightly mischievous way.

"No need for other girls, I want it to be just the two of us dancing as a couple. I know I mentioned the harem… but it's honestly just going to be the two of us as a couple for a while, so don't worry about it." He expressed seeing her seem a little fixated on that.

She nodded her head and smiled at his answer. "Okay, then it will be just two of us dancing as a couple." She said this with a soft and serious tone of her voice.

But one question remained. She continued talking to him in a slightly teasing tone.

Then she looked him deep in the eyes as she asked him a question. "Do you maybe... have any other plans as far as our romance together is concerned?" She questioned this with a teasing face.

"I just wanted to be with you and you know, do the typical couple things, go out on dates, just spend time together… eventually get intimate, buy stuff, eventually live together… so on and forth." Ky was too cooked to say anything more.

Katara chuckled a bit as she looked at his face. "I mean... that was pretty much my own plan for the two of us." She said this in a serious tone while looking at him with a warm expression. "Though when it comes to the "intimate" part, I wanted to take things a little slowly, but maybe I am just being too cautious." She expressed this in a joking tone.

"I said eventually… relax, I might have a high libido, but I'm still a gentleman." Ky just wants to sleep.

She nodded her head and smiled at him again. "That's good to hear." She said this with her voice sounding reassuring.

Then she asked him a question. "So, what do you think we could do tomorrow?"

"I thought we would do the performance tomorrow or the day after, and once that was done I would find a nice place for us to have a date at…" Ky responded.

She nodded and smiled. "That sounds like a nice plan for the next couple of days." She said this in a warm tone. "But I must admit, the idea of a nice date together makes me feel a bit excited at the moment." She chuckled and looked at him with a teasing expression.

"Good, I'm a bit tired a hungry, so we should get through the day and continue our planning later." Ky finally says it.

She nodded again. "Yes, that sounds like a good plan." She said this while still smiling at him.

"But... You do want to at least have something to eat now, don't you?" She asked this in a playful tone while she kept smiling at his face.

From then on, they moved through the rest of the day together until Ky had to go on patrol with Sokka, where they sparred and trained together.

Dinner time came by and another day ended.

-Day 7-

During this day, Ky spent the morning with Katara planning and preparing for their "event" tomorrow which they had talked about to Gran Gran and Sokka, as well as started telling the villagers about it, and even though some were skeptical most were open to the idea.

In the afternoon, Ky and Sokka once again went out to patrol, spar, and train together.

Once again dinner came and then another day over.

-Day 8-

This day was routine like the others before, until it was time for the "event" with Katara and Ky, which went great. Most people loved it.

(AN: Sorry to anyone who actually wanted to read about this, but don't worry, it will actually happen in the future. I have it under control… probably…)

-Day 9-

Nothing special happened, but the villagers seemed a bit more open to talking to Ky. Unfortunately, his date with Katara was delayed as Gran Gran needed her help for something.

-Day 10-

Ky was informed that tomorrow was a fishing day and he would be sailing with Katara and Sokka to go fish.

(Things are going differently from what I expected… I actually like and care for these people… So, when I stomp the fire nation for my world domination, it won't just be for these pseudo memories, but for the ones I'm making myself..) Ky concluded as he quickly grew used to his life.

Aside from that the day was pretty typical.

-Day 11-

After they sailed to go fish, Katara and Sokka got into a heated argument while Ky was focused on looking for the plot.

Soon standing in front of them, was a huge ice sphere with a bald kid and a big animal encased in it.

"I guess… the plot always finds its way…" Ky smiled as he looked at the big block of ice in front of him.
