Yes, we have hit the second season. This is the sister fic to What Moms Do. I'm planning on maybe doing four, which SOUNDS like it will be boring... but trust me, I have a few tricks up my sleeves. BWAHAHAHAHAAA!!!
"Well, now what?" complained the soldier.
"What do you mean 'now what?'" snapped the other
"Well, I don't want to go back to General Fong and tell him we had to leave because of some upstart with a pair of broadswords!"
"That 'upstart' was prince of the fire nation."
"You mean the one with the bounty on his head?" asked the third. They all stopped, and looked at each other.
"Yeah..." The leader grinned. "He's been traveling for a while."
"Didn't have enough money for food." put in the second, also grinning.
"He's probably really tired."
"Hungry, too."
"Weak."
"He'd stop for a while to get some rest."
"And leave his broadswords on the ostrich-horse; cause they'd get in the way."
"And no witnesses."
"Fire Nation pays big money for its enemies." They were all grinning now. So caught up in their plans, they didn't hear the footsteps of the person following them getting closer.
"I don't know about you two, but I could use some cash." They all laughed, covering up the sound of a blade being pulled from its sheath. Suddenly, the hairs on the back of the leader's neck stood up, and he turned. His eyes went wide, and he opened his mouth to scream...
The full moon lit up the night. It glinted off the blade, and turned the red blood that stained the dirt black. Someone cleaned off the blade with a stained cloth, and resheathed it. Then they were gone, leaving behind only the faint smell of jasmine flowers lingering in the air.
Yep. Ursa's crazy. You can see in this one she's stopped speaking... and the crime may not seem to fit the punishment, until you figure how much inner turmoil poor Zuko had to face up with this and blah blah blah okay, maybe she's just in a bad mood. I don't know. GO AWAY!!
The one for season 2 will be really long, though, as there seems to be a lot of Zuko bashing.
