Hey guys whats up, i know another story already, while i have another two that i rarely update which im really sorry about. I just wanted to through this story out there, its currently a oneshot with a prologue so it won't be too long, unless i enjoy writing it, and i get good reviews towards it. So it is currently un decided about how long this story will be, let me know in the reviews on how you want this to turn out.
so basically the story revolves completely on the siege a bunch of rebellious fire nation people have started on the royal palace, in the third week of Zuko's reign. And the thing that makes this story a little different is the weaponry, know if you read my book for air story, make sure you remember the weapons that are mentioned, cause they are planned to be used in that story too.
anyway on with the story.
Siege of the palace – prologue.
Fire lord Zuko walked hand in hand with his beloved girlfriend and soon to be betrothed, the sun was beginning to set and Mai looked towards it with utter distaste for the bright colours it gave off. "Sunsets are such an ugly colour" She remarked, removing her eyes from the bright sky and back to the face of her loving boyfriend.
"Well as firelord, im sure I could pull a few strings, maybe get the spirts to change the colour for you." Zuko joked, Mai giggled, the soft, gentle sound was like music to the Fire lords ears, and hes heart fluttered at the sound. She looked upto see Zuko staring contently at her lips. Her full, light pink lips that, when the bush in her cheeks accented the pale tint of her skin looked so delicate and fradgile, like even the smallest kiss would shatter them, but, whenever he even attempted a small peck, she would crush his lips to her, forcing their bodies closer together in a form or a passionate love that they had only ever felt for eachother.
Mai smirked at her still overly shy boyfriend and removed the gap between them. At first the kiss was slow, and full of all their love for each other, but as they grew hungrier for the touch of each other the kiss deepened, their tongues becoming involved in a unconditional love for one another. They found a quiet part of the beach, hidden behind a sand dune, they sat together, lips only parting for the simple need of air, before they continued to show their love and affection for each other.
Their lips finally parted, and they stared out over the now darkened sky, seeing the moods reflection shimmering off the glass like water. "You know" Mai started getting Zuko's attention, "I could really get to like the sun set if I was able to spend it like this every night"
"I think we could work something out along those lines." Zuko said kissing her awaiting lips once again. He placed his hand on her upper thigh, just above her bottom. They continued kissing on the beach until Zuko finally pulled away once again. "I have meetings to attend tonight."
Mai groaned with distaste, "Will you be in late?" She asked simply hoping for a straight no answer.
"Hopefully not too late, will you wait for me." Eyes full of love and desperation he stared into the beautiful pale gold eyes of the future crowned fire lady.
"Of course."
Zuko placed one last loving kiss on her lips before pulling the two of them up and embracing her in a long tender hug.
They walked hand in hand back to the Royal palace until finally they came to the war room, where they broke off, Mai going to go find something to entertain herself with for the following hours, while Zuko pulled the thick hanging fabric of the curtain door aside and strode into the war room, up the steps, the flames parting for him as he entered, and taking his seat on the royal throne, the meeting began.
War minister Quin Shee, - born of noble blood and served in the war as an honest general for his nation, now one of the simple members of Zuko's royal council men – began the meeting, stepping up onto the large table of the war room, crouching down and placing a block with the symbol of the rebellion that had been causing havoc in the earth kingdom, down on the coast of the fire nation's royal city beaches.
"Your majesty, as you are fully aware of, a large number of firenation rebels have been causing problems in many of the smaller unprotected villages of the earth kingdom, but our latest scout reports prove that a huge force of rebels have appeared on our shore line, and have sent message to the palace stating they are here for one simple reason, and one reason only. They are here to bring war." Quin Shee pulled out a map from under the section of the table he was sitting at, it was a close and very high detailed map of the royal island, he already had a ink well and feather pen set out on the table and marked the area of the general area of the rebels landing zone, he drew out their formations that the scout had reported, and stated that he would give them six hours before they reached the base of the volcano encased city.
Zuko sat horrified in the position he was in when he first heard the news. The palace was soon to be under attack, and with the Avatar off in the southern water tribe, helping to re-establish the once great city there, and no earth bender or water bender re-enforcements in the area, he would have to make due with the extrymly low number or troops he still had in his nation, the troops that hadn't been out to help the world in its aid of recovery.
"Send a pratrol down to help the battlements along the path, I want fifty foot soliders as well as twenty archers, and twenty benders, at the first sign of defeat i want them all to retreat. Once the lower battlements have been lost, I want your finest men to do their best to subdue the enemy for as long as possible, keep them at bay and wait until help arrives."
"Yes your majesty" Quin Shee bowed respectfully darting out of the war room and pacing quickly to the armoury not fat from the palace walls.
so thats it for the prologue, hope you enjoyed it, and if you did, than let me know via review, or pm me with any ideas you have.
also let me know if you enjoyed the maiko scene, because if its enjoyed, i will actually copy and paste it into my other story, change some of it to make it fit, and then that will help me alot with getting that next chapter up..
guys im actually thinking of starting a new kind of thingy. It will be made on here, like its a story but it will be more like a blog, that i will update alot, with questions for what you guys think i should do, i might give away a small part of the story early so that all those who follow that blog get something back for their loyalty for me, and i could even let you guys know whats taking so long to update, or any future plans for stories i have.
so let me know in the reviews how you feel about that.
and please guys, let your friends know about me, because i don't get that many reviews, and i have heard that a story that is 15 chapters long, with only 44 reviews, doesn't make the story look so good, and make people want to read it. So please. Let people know.
next chapter should be un in either a few days, or a week or what ever, and if everyone is enjoying it. It may go on for longer.
love ya ;D
