Ok guys, the next part may take a little while but the story is almost done! This part posted 'specially for Lady Liesl! ---
As the moon rose high in the night sky, Toph nudged Sokka’s sleeping form with her foot. When he didn’t awake instantly she continued to prod him with her calloused feet.
“Five more minutes mommy…” Sokka murmured sleepily. Toph rolled her unseeing eyes and slammed her foot down to the Earth. The topsoil cracked and the tremors shook Sokka, waking him instantly. “Toph!” he cried in surprise, she merely shushed him and helped him to his feet.
“Come on Sokka!” she snapped.
“Oh yeah, suicide plan ahoy” he muttered sleepily, Toph flashed a ghostly smile.
“That’s right, let’s go.” She said and Sokka gently reached down to touch Suki’s face, in sleep she turned into his touch.
“I’ll be back, I promise.” He whispered and followed Toph out into the night.
As they slowly and carefully made it into the grounds of the Fire Nation’s palace a sudden voice from the shadows took them by surprise.
“You should not be here. You will be killed on sight…well if it were anyone but me.” Toph knew the voice immediately and as the figure stepped out to reveal the “fame” Dragon of the West.
“You!” Sokka said by facial recognition, the elder Uncle of Zuko watched the two in the pale light of the moon.
“You’re here for Katara, you want to speak to your sister.” He said, Sokka stared and Toph eased her stance as she felt the calm vibrations beneath Iroh.
“Take us to her.” Toph said, it wasn’t a question and Iroh nodded solemnly.
“Follow me. Stick close. I cannot express how much danger you are in just from setting foot on the palace grounds.” The wise man reiterated, but lead them into the dark halls of the palace. As the three carefully and slowly made their way through the palace, Iroh lead them to a room at the end of a hall, a thin line of light shone from under the door.
“What the hell?” was Sokka’s reaction as he stepped inside to see his sister sitting beside the gothic Bounty Hunter, Jun and across from them, sleeping across the table.
“Sokka! Toph!” Katara cried happily, and as soon as Iroh had closed the door and she got up from the table to launch herself into her brothers arms. He was stunned at first but still wrapped his arms around.
“Katara? What are you doing? I though you were brainwashed and hated us!” Sokka said, still shocked, Toph smacked him hard against the back of his head.
“You’re such a moron.” She said and made her way over to the table where Zuko had woken up, since it was the middle of the night they all were on the brink of sleep.
“I agree with the blind girl. Why would Katara of the Water Tribe swear allegiance with the Nation that killed her mother?” he asked, Sokka frowned, Toph smiled to Katara.
“I knew you wouldn’t, I could feel you two were up to something!” she proclaimed as Iroh began to pour tea. Handing her a cup she accepted it. “What’s the plan?” she asked, blowing on the hot liquid before taking a long drink.
“Wait, I have one more question…” he looked to the Bounty Hunter, “Why are you here?” he asked, Jun yawned, looking paler since she wore no makeup.
“The old man,” she began jerking her thumb at Iroh as he gave her a cup of tea. “Wanted companionship, I wanted power. Its an even trade.” She said, Iroh smiled.
“I’m getting on in my year and companionship is all I need. I’m a bloodline of the royal family but I’m sure by now Jun isn’t just concerned with power.” Jun offered a rare smile.
“True…you are really good in be-“
“Don’t finish that sentence.” Zuko snapped, glaring out of his good eye.
“Don’t talk to me like that! I’m your Aunt now Zu Zu!”
“Don’t call me that! Besides I will never call you Aunt you’re dang near my age!” Iroh started to snicker.
“Love is love.” Iroh mused aloud, drinking his own cup of tea.
“Listen, I’ve been a prisoner here for 4 years, I’ve come to accept Zuko, Jun and Iroh as my allies, though they are Fire Nation. Iroh, wants nothing to do with it, Jun isn’t on any side and Zuko wants to bring down his sister. Zuko and I have devised a plan to get Aang to destroy Azula.” Katara told Toph and Sokka.
“Yeah by crushing him! Katara, he’s spent most of the day crying!” Sokka said, Katara looked away sadly.
“I know I hate doing this to him but nothing else can trigger his Avatar State unless he’s in a pure rage and as long as he thinks I do not love him and that I’m sharing a bed with Zuko he’s going to get there. I don’t want to hurt Aang, as you guys know I am in love with him but it must be done.” Katara sighed, she, Iroh, Zuko and Jun were all in robes of varied colors.
“Well if you want him to think that you and Zuko are lovers, you’re gonna wanna get to bed.” Toph said, everyone stared at her as a small smile crept on her lips. “He’s coming this way. He’s still distant but he’s going to get here soon.”
“He’s probably seen we were gone and thought we were going to go the way of Katara…” Sokka murmured, Katara and Zuko leapt to their feet. Iroh looked to Jun, both calculating a plan.
“Zuko, get back to your room with Katara and Jun take our guests to Zuko’s guest room, that way he’ll have to see the both of them.” Iroh said, standing then offering his hand to Jun and helped her up.
“And you, my dear, need to get back to bed. Its not past your bed time yet.” She smiled and he laughed.
“Yes dear.” With that they all split up and moments later Toph cursed.
“He’s here!” she said, Jun cursed as well, but was releaved since they made it.
“Well you’re here, I know I’ll be seeing you soon, but if you don’t mind I’ve got things to do.” She said, and Toph couldn’t her snipe back.
“Don’t you mean Iroh?” Jun laughed and easily vanished into the shadows.
As Toph and Sokka sat in the guest room, within moments Aang had found them.
“Guys! There you are! Are you alright?!” he asked, Toph nodded and as the room went silent Aang could hear Katara’s voice from the other room.
“Aang, don’t!” Sokka said as the Avatar vanished from the room to follow her voice, he tried to follow him but was held back by Toph.
“This has to happen Sokka.” She whispered, and they both sighed as the door to the Prince’s bedroom was opened and Aang gasped.
His eyes went immediately to the bed where she and Zuko were on a compromising position, her hands were touching his face and his lips had claimed hers in a firery kiss. Aang looked away as he broke down again, he backed out of the room and Toph gently rested her hand on his shoulder.
“Lets get out of here.” Sokka said, and as Aang lifted both of them up and raced as fast as the air would take him he made one vow. They will pay.
What you have to look forward to next? The Last Battle

Here is a small update, I promise this will be finished soon and when I do update again I should have it finished. I hope you like it ^_^
--- The next morning at a blood red dawn, Aang sat in mediation on the cliffs edge, the Guru had once told him that to master the Avatar State, he would have to let Katara go and now he was finally ready. After he sat in concentration, and when he saw her face, he willingly let her fall from him, her betrayal flashing before his eyes. He let the rage consume him as he saw her in the arms of Zuko, willingly being bedded by him. Aang felt hot tears course down his face as he saw her beautiful face grow from her childlike features to her more womanly face and body. All I wanted to do was to love you, you were my only love, and how could you betray me. I will never be able to forgive you; I will fight you, as you are now my enemy. I can no longer love you.
As Sokka approached the cliff with Toph as his side he realized that half way there Toph stopped completely. He immediately stopped and looked to her, her eyes were wide and her mouth had formed a perfect ‘O’.
“Sokka, don’t move. He’s crossing into the Avatar state; I’ve never felt him so angry before…he’s so furious. I can read his emotions so clearly that I can almost feel like I could read his mind. He’s letting Katara go, and if she isn’t careful, she could lose her life in this battle, he is angry enough with her that he will treat her like an enemy, even if it means her death.”
“No, Aang would never do that! Even if he’s angry he could never hurt Katara! He loves her!” Sokka said, though that took him until she was gone to realize that.
“Are you not listening to me Sokka?! To completely master the Avatar State like Aang is now, he’s completely letting her go! Katara means nothing to him!” Toph snapped and she turned her attention from Sokka to Aang, who was beginning to rise. “Its time, we need to gather the army, he’s ready.” She whispered and turned and ran with Sokka on her heels.
In the Fire Nation Palace Katara awoke when she felt a familiar tingle course through her mind. Her eyes snapped open and she rushed from the bed to the window where in the distance a bright light shone into the heavens. She took it in, in remembrance of long ago, when she had witnessed Aang channeling the Avatar State, the wonder she felt as a child just entering her teens reignited at the sight. She felt Zuko come to her side and look out the window as well.
“He’s in the Avatar State? I haven’t seen that light in years…” Zuko murmured softly, Katara moved from him, her back turned to him. “What is it?” he asked.
“To master the Avatar State, Aang once told me that to do that, he would have to let me go completely and he couldn’t because would never let me go. After last night, I think he finally has…if we survive this, he will never forgive me. Excuse me, I’m going to get some tea…I need to be alone.” She was almost out of the room when Zuko called out to her.
“If…if the Avatar will not accept you back, you will always have a place here, I know the Fire Nation has done horrible things to you and your people. I, myself, have harmed you in ways no man should harm a woman, I’ve kept you from your family and I’ve been down right cruel. I’m sorry; it has taken many years to be able to say that to you now, I’m sorry Katara.” Katara fought back tears and hurried from the room and Zuko sighed, casting his eyes once more to the dying light.

Yeah, it's pretty unclear with the shipping. It could still go either way. I'm pretty sure I know which ship it'll end up with though, and it's not my ship.
