Real A/N:
Hi, I am DoubleDigits! This is my new story about Mai! I'm trying to get more people to like her by actual giving her an emotional diary. I am combining it because the first one is too short.
DIARY ENTRY 1:
Dear Diary,
Today, my parents gave me this book for my eighth birthday. It was completely empty, with the exeption of the lines on the pages and the words 'DIARY ENTRIES OF:' on the front cover (Mother told me what it said since I wasn't the best reader ever.)
My parents had given me a diary.
Well, to be specific, it was my mother's idea. She'd seen how I'd always behaved and kept my emotions inside myself and decided that in this book, I could write all the feelings I wasn't expressing at the moment. Although, my father thought it'd be better if I didn't have the diary.
To be nice, I'm writing inside of it to please my mother. I hate to disappoint her.
Currently, nothing interesting is happening. Next week, I'll be sent off to yet another boarding school. The Royal Fire Academy for girls. I heard that the princess of the Fire Nation was attending it and that she was a true prodigy.
I'd seen the princess every year at the meetings. My father was a govenor and he had to travel to the palace to discuss with the Prince. The princess was there every time and so was her older brother, the prince.
Prince Zuko was really cute. I'd sometimes follow him to the gardens or the pond, just to watch him. I don't think he noticed me standing behind the tree he was relaxing on every time. If he did, he never said so and I assume he didn't mind and/or care.
His eyes were as yellow as the sun, his skin pale as the moon, his: What am I saying?! I couldn't believe I was writing all this stuff about his good looks! I am such an idiot.
Currently, I have to go now to pack my things for the Royal Fire Academy. I'll probably continue writing in this diary.
-Mai

DIARY ENTRY 2:
Dear Diary,
Today was the first day of school at the academy. Lucky me, I got a dormitory with the princess and a cheerful girl, Ty Lee.
The princess, I heard, was a vicious girl who controlled everyone with fear, even her own mother! The prince, on the other hand, was a controlled boy. I heard from my cousin, Lee, that the prince wasn't a prodigy and he was a troublemaker. Lee should know since he shared a dormitory with him at the Royal Fire Academy for Boys.
Princess Azula already began controlling everyone on the first day. The girl, Ty Lee, was always following her. Although, I could tell by the glances she sent me, she was slightly scared of the princess.
After I had unpacked, my first class was history of the Fire Nation. We learned about Fire Lord Sozin and Sozin's Comet.
Personally, I didn't care. I already knew this. I was day dreaming about the prince and I was drawing his face and doodling his name. Unfortaunutely, Azula was sitting right next to me. She noticed this and raised an eyebrow as if to ask, 'Seriously?!'
Glancing at the teacher, Azula had whispered to me, "Why are you drawing my brother? He's a doofus!"
I blushed and stammered a lie. "I-I wasn't drawing your brother. I was...was drawing my cousin, Lee!" My cousin did look a lot alike the prince.
Azula obviously didn't believe me but she couldn't argue since the teacher was watching everyone and she had no real proof if it was her brother or my cousin.
When the school day ended I was ready to collapse in bed. Ugh. I hated school. The teachers were so strict, we couldn't do anything original, we couldn't dance in music class, we had to follow every rule, and etc. It was just like in my family. Always behave.
As I laid in my bed in the dormitory, Azula entered and smirked as she laid on hers.
"So, what was with the drawings during History?" she asked.
Ty Lee glanced up curiously. "What drawings?"
Azula smiled. Her smile wasn't geniune and it was certainly not kind. "Mai, here, was drawing a million pictures of the prince."
"Ooh, you mean Prince Zuko!" Ty Lee giggled. "He's certainly cute, don't you think so Mai?"
I had blushed even more and covered my face. I despised that princess so much but she was dangerous. I couldn't just tell her that.
Currently, the devil princess is asleep and Ty Lee is...well, who knows what she's doing in the bathroom. And I personally wouldn't want to know anyway.
I'll write more tomorrow. For now, I too tired to continue and my hand is stiff from the quill.
-Mai
