Hey Zutara lovers! I promise that this will be one of, if not the best stories you have ever read. Stick with me on this.
Flash forward:
"Do you know how to dance?"
"What?" she looked up at him as he took her hands.
"I said…" he repeated as he took a step closer, "do you know how to dance?"
3 Days Earlier:
"OK everyone, we have to get to Ba Sing Se to plan for Sozan's comment." Aang said pacing back and forth in front of the group of teens, "Sense Appa got hurt we are going to need to find a new way there… So any ideas?"
"We could always infiltrate a fire nation war balloon" Sokka suggested as he shrugged his shoulders up.
"And where do you propose we get one of those?" Zuko questioned as he raised his head up and glared at Sokka from under his long hair.
"Uumm… I got nothing," Sokka said letting out a big breath looking disappointed.
"Well luckily for all of you… I have an idea," Zuko said smirking as he glanced over at Katara who just rolled her eyes, "A pirate ship."
Toph rolled her eyes, "I don't like Sparky's idea. Why can't we just walk or do something that lets me stay on the ground?"
"What do you think Aang?" Katara asked in an annoyed tone.
"Uumm… actually I'll have to agree with Zuko," everyone's jaws dropped and Zuko's raised an eyebrow, "it just seams like the quickest way and we could use all the saved time we can get," Aang said quickly while not making eye contact with anyone.
"OK then. How do YOU propose we get hold of a pirate ship?" Katara asked batting her eyelashes with a sweet sarcastic tone to her voice.
It was Zuko's turn to roll his eyes while he said, "actually I already have a plan princess," he spat.
"OK. Everyone know their part right?" Zuko asked as the group gave him affirming nods, "Right then lets go."
Katara linked arms with him as they strolled into pirate bays village from the rocks they were hiding behind. They walked into dozens of shops and inns and none of them were empty.
"May I help you?" a man from behind the counter asked as Zuko and Katara as they walked in.
"Umm… Yes actually," Zuko replied.
"… Well… What is it?" the store keeper asked, obviously getting impatient.
"Were looking for a umm... a scroll," Katara covered as she glared at the firebender.
"Well we had quite a valuable water bending scroll until some brats stole it!" he said while slamming his fist on the counter startling the "couple."
"Oh... well... maybe we'll just look somewhere else. Right honey" she said through her teeth as she Elbowed Zuko in the stomach.
"YEP. Yea well We'll just be going then," He said in pain stricken voice while glaring at the smirking waterbender.
"Do I know you? Because you two look awfully familiar."
"No no. You must be mistaken. Me and my... my fiance are just here traveling." Zuko spit out getting yet another glare from Zatara.
"Well we must get going, its pretty late and i have to cook dinner," Katara stated quickly before the man could recognize them as they walked out the door, "that was close," Katara whispered in Zukos ear with arms still linked.
"Yea, thanks to you!" he whispered back scowling, "why on earth would you mention a scroll!"
"Hey! Its not my fault" Zuko rolled his eyes,"it was the first thing that came to mind," she said suddenly taking a lot of interest in her shoes.
"Whatever, he said looking away from her, "we still have to find a building to set on fire."
Another couple walked by them as they stared lovingly at each other until they passed and both looked away from the other.
After walking along in silence for 5 minutes, Katara's eyes lit up. "Maybe it doesn't have to be a building," Katara said excitedly as she bounced up and down wrapping both hands on Zukos arm.
He stopped in his tracks,"... Well... Are you gonna tell me or not," the firebender said impatiently as he tapped his foot.
"A boat."
"A boat?"
She nodded.
"Ohh. A boat." he smiled and nodded, finally understanding.
"Lets go find the others and tell them." she said pulling Zuko by the arm deeper into the streets of the town.
