Warning: Slight spoilers for season finale, you've been warned!!
Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar the Last Airbender, if I did I wouldn't have let Zuko take a wrong turn at the crossroads.
A/N Okay so this is my take on what should happen in Season three. Thanks to Zuko curses underbreath I now have to kill all of my past fanfic's. Anyways please R&R!
"Azula, is that a new tunic? I love that you are fashion conscience as well as a master bender!" The irritably happy voice of Tai Lee once again addressed the sinister form of the Fire nation princess.
Azula merely grunted.
'If she compliments Azula one more time I'll show her how to really bend.' Zuko thought, quickly dousing the flame that had popped up on his right hand.
They were now on their way to the Fire nation, Zuko, Tai Lee, Azula, and a group of Dai Li agents. Azula had chosen Mai to remain in Ba Sing Se. All three were mounted on ostrich horses.
Zuko rode slightly behind the two girls, not wanting to invite some awkward conversation.
'At least when I traveled with Uncle there was someone to talk to,' and remembering his thirst added, 'and make tea.'
'Wait – I should not be thinking about him. He is of no importance to me.'
'But he is, isn't he.' a small voice stated, though he did his best to ignore it.

"This will do, Dai Li make three earth tents, and Zuko go collect some timber for a fire." Azula ordered, eyes resting on what had been a small glade of trees, though she had changed that in a matter of seconds.
"Wh--," Zuko stopped himself, about to object. Did he really have a choice? No he did not.
Obediently he walked into the surrounding forest. After walking a while he took a seat on a small boulder.
Introspectively he muttered to himself, "What have I done? Everywhere I go I am a prisoner. Now even Uncle will not trust me, nor the avatar, or my sister. I am a complete idiot!"A/N cough cough he repeated his voice in a harsh whisper,
"What have I done?"
