Dairies of a Fire Prince
Entry1: This is Stupid, why would something like this keep me Calm! Uncle is Wrong about this!
Entry2: Went to south pole. Avatar is a child, he cant be more then 10 or 11, Yet still he got away from us! Though I am glad he used my mattress to stop me, also glad I did not fall into the water. Ship still stuck. WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG!
Entry3: Commander Zhao is a Dick!
Entry4: remind me not to go to Kyoshi again; I do not like getting kicked in the face by a girl.
Entry5: Uncle got captured today, I don't know what's worse, having him here, lord knows the sight of him naked has left a mental scar as deep as the one on my face, or not having him here. The silence is giving me a headache.
Uncle left a trail for me to follow. He knew I would come after him. Insufferable old man!
Saw the Avatar! Actually I thought I did… it might have been a cloud, still following uncles trail.
Uncle acussed me of wanting to make a dramatic entrance! Sai I was waiting to free him at the moment that looked best for me! I shouted at him that it wasn't true! But he just smiled and handed me tea. Uncle makes nice tea…

Katara dropped the scroll and gasped
"What are you doing!"
Zuko stormed into the room and snatched the scroll from her hands, Katara backed away and then stood her ground
" I saw a fire emblem on it, I thought… well I didn't know what to think!, for all I know it could have been some secret mission"
"WHAT!"
"Well what do you expect!?"
Zuko strode across to her and shoved the parchment into her hands
"It's not a secret mission! Read it! Then you will see!"
"I really… don't think that's necessary now Zuko"
" What? You don't want to read it when I know! Read it! Maybe then you might trust me!"
Zuko turned his back on her and removed his shirt, throwing it to the bed before laying down on it. Katara looked at him and felt a little unsure about what to do, she was caught snooping, and now he wanted her to pry some more, this was his diary, she knew that after the first entry… yet she had kept reading… the situation was… embarrassing.
She sat at the end of his bed and opened the scroll again…
Entry5: Zhao is a dick!!
"Nice…"
"What?"
Zuko sat up and looked over her shoulder to see where she was reading from…
"Well he was… just keep reading"
Entry6: Uncle needs a new hobby. I dislike Pirates. I must remember to get back at that water tribe boy! And what is with the Girl! I was nice to her! I even offered to give her back that necklace I found… Uncle made some comment about me knowing it was hers. I mean, who else would own it! Its not like there are a lot of people wearing these! anyway… she was not impressed with my offer. The Avatar got away again. And the Pirates broke my boat! Still have the necklace though! That's something!
"Yeah… this is nice and all Zuko, but I don't see how me reading about you calling me that girl and bragging over having my necklace is going to gain my trust"
Zuko lay back in the bed and said nothing, but he did jab her lower back with his knee to get her to continue reading
Entry7: Mental note, listen to uncle more, I had a fight with the crew. Though for some reason, they seem to be nice to me now that the storm has passed. Saw Avatar, didn't catch him. He looked sad.
" A Storm? That must have been that time Sokka got caught in a storm and we went to save him, we got really sick after that."
Zuko maneuvered himself so he could look at Katara
"Do you comment on everything? Or is it just that you want to embarrass me more by making comments on my journal entries?"
"Well I do like to comment on things, I guess the embarrassing you is just a perk"
Entry8: Zhao is a Dick! Saved Avatar… well that felt weird to write. He asked me something though, he said, if things had been different, could we be friends… I suppose we did work well together, and he did save me from Zhao…
"Was that the time Aang went to get medicine to help us?"
" I don't know.. all I know is he was captured, and I had to get him out of there"
Katara looked at him and narrowed her eyes slightly
"so you could restore your own honor"
"at the time yes…"
" I suppose it was your idea to get him to feed us frogs aswell?"
Zuko sat up and laughed, Katara stared at him wide eyed, it was… not a sound she was used to
"He mentioned something about having to get his friends to suck on frogs, I thought he was joking!"
"Oh… it was no joke…"
Katara smiled and read some more
Entry9: Why do people LIKE to destroy my ship! This time it was a woman! WHY ARE WOMEN CRAZY! We got her to find that other crazy water tribe woman. And she is Not way to pretty for me! That water tribe girl is… well… Argh! She could be my girlfriend if I wasn't hunting her! This has nothing to do with her being pretty! I wasn't even hunting for her! Stupid woman and her stupid remarks! Found Avatar! HE STOLE MY NECKLACE!... didn't catch him…. On a side note… Uncle is a pervert.
Zuko looked over her shoulder and then looked away. The grin on Katara's face was practically splitting it from ear to ear.
"Your necklace eh? And you think I am pretty, oh Zuko that's sweet"
" I am beginning to think this is a bad Idea…."
Zuko groaned and Straightened himself on his bed so he could sit beside her properly…
"well… Keep reading"
