Chapter 1: I don't like you

Zuko heard that his mother was banished to an island called Sirie just beyond Fire Nation territory. After all this time he was finally going to see mother and bring her home to where she belongs, he smiled at the thought of them being together like old times before she was banished.

"Fire Lord Zuko, we will be docking shortly" Captain Jee said when he approached him on the front desk

"Thank you, prepare the search party we start looking as soon as we dock' he said

"Yes Fire Lord" Jee left to go do as he was told.

He looked at the island as it slowly came into view and inhaled deeply Mother I'll be there soon.

They unloaded the ship and separated in groups, "We return here at sundown and report any information you receive let's move out' Captain Jee said then they moved into different directions to search for the missing princess, Jee came up to Zuko and put a reassuring hand on his shoulder "Don't worry will find her" he said when he saw his worried expression. Zuko wander around the town with a picture of her asking if anyone has seen her, but no one had a clue to which she was, he went to a fountain and sat down on it and looked at her picture.

This is hopeless; he fears that he will never see her again,

"What are you sad for?" he looked up and saw a girl standing over him staring "What are you sad for?" she asked again although it did not sound like a question more like a statement.

"I was hoping to find my mother here but no one has seen her" he said sadly

The girl looked down at the picture hanging loosely in his hand " I know her follow me" she turned and walked away and Zuko quickly followed with a small smile he was going to see his mother.

They came to a villa just outside the outskirts of town; it was very impressive Zuko has never seen a structure like it. She led him inside and through a maze of halls that had pictures on the walls that looked just like the girl who was walking ahead of him, she stopped at a door then turned and looked at him "She's in here" she gestures to the door.

Zuko stood there frozen; he could hear his heart thundering in his ear and sweat pouring down his forehead. He licked his lips and inhaled deeply here I go,

He opened the door and stared in amazement, right next to the window was his mother reading a book, the girl walked into the room then went over to Ursa and gave her shoulder a few quick taps "You have a visitor" she did her head over to Zuko. She looked at the door and dropped her book "Zuko…." She got up and slowly made her way to him.

He closed the small distance between them and pulled her into a hug "I thought I would never see you again" he said into her hair

Ursa pulled back and looked into his face, he wasn't that ten year old boy anyone he was a handsome young man now. She took noticed to the large burn over his eye "What happened?" she said then touched the rough skin"Who did this to you".

"I'll explain later it's a long story" he said, Ursa moved and went over to the girl "Akaineya where did you find him?" she asked

"In the square sitting on the fountain mopping, I asked him what was his problem he said he was looking for you so I brought him here when I recognized your picture" she explained and Ursa hugged her "Thank you" she whispered.

For hours Zuko and Ursa came up on everything that happened over the past years and Zuko told her about the Agni Kai he had with Ozai and Azula's breakdown and her remarkable recovery, he told her about him becoming Fire Lord, everything.

"Miss Ursa!" a girl that looked similar to Akaineya busted through the doors with a wide grin on, she looked to be about eleven or twelve.

"Who's this" she looked at Zuko

"This is my son Zuko, Zuko this is Jendayi" Ursa introduced them and Jendayi curtsied "Pleasure to meet you", she reminded him of Ty Lee, she is very bright and friendly.

"Oops almost forgot" she tapped her forehead "Arisous is here Miss Ursa" she said and Zuko saw a light blush creep onto her pale skin "Excuse me for one moment" she got up and left the room.

"Who is Arisous" he asked a bit confused

"Her boyfriend" Akaineya said entering the room

"HER WHAT!' Zuko jerked back and stared at the two girls

"Her B-O-Y-F-R-I-E-N-D" Akaineya said "What did you think she was going to be single while she's here" she raised an amused brow

"Yes, yes I did!" he stood up and paced the room grumbling incoherently and messing with his vest, Akaineya walked to him and rested her hands on his shoulders "Look here sugar plum your mom is a gown woman and grown women have needs-"

He made disgusted noises and covered his ears "Ask I don't want to listen to you give me the talk about my mother having…NEEDS" she rolled her eyes "How old are you ten?" Akaineya inclined her head and raised her brows

"I'm twenty one" he defeated, how she dare call him immature.

Zuko and Akaineya got into a heated debate over the Ursa having a boyfriend subject and continued even when Ursa came back "What is going on?

I a little lost myself" Jendayi slowly shook her head

"SHUT UP"

"NO YOU SHUT UP STUPID"

"DON'T CALL ME STUPID I'M SENSITIVE ASSHOLE"

"I DON'T LIKE YOU"

"PSSSH SO I DON'T LIKE YOU EITHER"
