Summary: Sokka is Katara's older brother.
New Worlds
She was two, and the ice climbed up her legs with every step she took. She was four, and the snow parted around her when she spun around. She was six and the waves under their canoe sank into valleys and rose into mountains.
She was eight and their mother... Their mother was dead.
She was ten and nothing moved. She was ten and their father was gone.
She was twelve, and nothing moved.
On her thirteenth birthday, she pointed at his watchtower, and told him it was stupid, and it fell down. Sokka started screaming. He couldn't stop. He danced around, grabbed her around the neck and planted a kiss on her cheek.
He sat on the steps sometimes, while she trained with Sourpants-Pakku, and watched her remake the world.
Their dad told him he was supposed to protect her, but how could he when she didn't need it?
