Summary: Zuko wonders how water can be so destructive.
Zuko hadn’t expected to have to deal with a natural disaster so early in his reign. But the second hurricane of the season, coming just two and a half months after his coronation, was the worst one recorded in twenty years. The beaches on all of the islands in its path were inundated by the storm surge and it took two weeks for all of the flooded areas to drain.
Sitting in his office reading the damage reports and requests for aid, Zuko wondered how something as gentle as water could be so destructive. Then he remembered what Katara could be like when she was angry. Water might appear gentle, but it could be more dangerous than fire when it was aroused.
A/N: Yes, I did write this while Hurricane Irene was raging.
