Last Time On Blood Prodigy
Katara pulled her knees in close to her body and began to rock in place crying.
Ty Lee looked over to the frightened water tribe girl, then at Mai, confused by what she just saw. "Ok... what just happened?"
The 2 Non-Benders suddenly turned their attention towards their newest accomplice, and immediately realised that there was something wrong with her.
Katara was on her side, curled up in a ball, and crying. All she kept doing was repeating the words "I'm so sorry... please don't leave me..." over and over again.
Ty Lee realized this and hugged her gently, rocking her. "Shhh...its okay.."
"P..please... help me... A...A..." Katara's cries grew slowly louder as she choked on what seemed to be a name.
"Shhh...it's okay Katara. You dont need the Avatar. Mai, me and Azula, we're your friends now." The bubbly chi-blocker cooed.
The broken waterbender continued to cry as Ty Lee attempted to comfort her. Her spirit was completely broken, and she was finally coming to terms with what had happened.
"P..please... make it stop... no more pain... please... help me... A...zula..." She sobbed miserably.
End Flashback
Ty Lee's ears perked up at Azula's name. "Azula!" She called.
The now irritated Fire Nation Princess walked back into the room in a small temper. "What is so important that you have to distract me from my training, Ty Lee?"
"It's Katara, she was calling for you." Ty answered sympathetically.
Azula's mouth curled into her classic devious smirk as she walked over to the crying waterbender. "Katara? Are you alright?"
"Azula! Sister, help me!" Katara squealed in fright and pain, as she clung to her like a life perserver.
Azula's eyes widened at the action. "D...did you really... just call me 'Sister'?" She asked in disbelief.
Katara nodded, shaking as she sobbed.
"It's ok...No one's going to hurt you anymore. No one is going to come between us, I promise." Azula wrapped her arms around Katara's body, holding her in a protective embrace.
Katara hugged her as tight as possible. "Don't go...don't go...don't goooo!" She wailed.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'll never abandon you." Azula whispered into her ear mischievously.
"Never abandon me...please..." Katara whispered.
Ty Lee just giggled at the relationship between the 2 opposites.
"Katara... are you going to be ok now?" Azula gently pulled herself away from the waterbender for a moment.
"I...I need..." She murmured softly.
Azula stared at her, curious as to what she wanted to say. "What do you need, sister?"
"REVENGE!" Katara screamed, cackling psychotically.
Azula's eyes widened as her smirk turned into a full blown grin. "At last. Finally decided to let your true self come out, sister?"
Katara grinned sadistically, pulling her hair into pigtails, her eyes full of crazed and bloodshot rage as she giggled.
"Well then... shall we go and find the monsters that betrayed you, my sweet little sister?" The Firebender laughed sadistically, admiring how evil Katara now looked.
"Yes...yes...so I can destroy them!" Katara cackled sadistically.
Both of the non-benders in the room shared a glance that screamed 'Oh god, not another Azula!'
Katara looked to them and switched to her sweet persona, blowing them a kiss.
Ty Lee smiled nervously at her, waving a hello her way, and forcing herself to giggle.
Azula turned her head towards Mai and Ty Lee, mirroring Katara's sweet, innocent look. "Oh relax you two. Katara would never hurt either of you, right?"
"That's right. You guys are my friends, I care about you." Katara replied, genuinely sweet.
"Oh... Okey dokey then." was Ty Lee's response, her fear instantly replaced by her usually giggly-ness
Katara smiled wide, hugging Ty Lee, giggling just like her.
Azula snapped her fingers, and 3 Dai Li agents enter the room. "Sister dearest... why don't you work out your frustrations on these 3 insignificant Earth Kingdom peasants, while I go and fetch you something that will truly make you smile."
Katara smiled gleefully, as she happily began to bloodbend them.
Mai cracked a smile as she saw how remorseless Katara was with her Bloodbending abilities. 'I may just like her after all.' She thought.
Katara grinned sadistically, stopping the flow of blood in their bodies simultaneously. Within minutes, all 3 dropped dead..
Azula came back in after a few minutes, holding a small decorative chest. "Katara. I found it. Want to see it now?" She purred.
Katara squealed, jumping up and down. "Yes, yes! Show me!"
"Ok, but only because my dear sister asked so nicely." Azula smiled as she opened the chest, revealing a crown similar to the one Azula herself had, only this one was silver and encrusted with sapphires.
"I have no idea where I got this thing, but now it just makes me think of my darling waterbender..." She cooed.
Katara's eyes filled with happy tears. "Sister...you got this for me?"
The Firebender's smirk curled into a genuinely sweet smile, and she put on an innocent face. "Of course. A Princess is nothing without her crown, after all." She giggled.
"Oh Azula...I love you..." Katara murmured.
Azula's face looked stunned. "I...I don't know what to say...except..." Azula pulled Katara into a tight hug, smiling happily "I love you too Katara..." She beamed lovingly.
"I love you too Azula. More than anyone, even Aang.."
Ty Lee finally decided to interrupt their adorable moment of sisterly bonding. "Ok, now that that's done... I heard there was a new Tea Shop open in the Upper Ring. Anyone wanna go check it out?"
"You mean the 'Jasmine Dragon? Yes, I had heard about that. It sounds like the perfect way to celebrate the newest addition to our little family." Azula grinned happily, holding Katara by the hip.
"I love you Azula, my beautiful perfect sister.." Katara cooed dreamily.
"Well, you're right about that. I am perfect, but YOU'RE the beautiful one." The firebender replied affectionately.
"Awww...Azu..." Katara blushed. She was completely wrapped around Azula's finger. Azula pulled all her strings.
"Well... let's go then... no sister of mine is going to celebrate by herself." Azula simply grinned and took Katara by the arm, leading her out of the large building
Katara sighed dreamily, clearly in love.
A short time later, the group of 4 arrived at the new Jasmine Dragon.
"Well... this is the place. I must say, it looks awfully welcoming... almost like it would fit into a Fire Nation village..." Azula mused as she was in awe at how much the building reminded her of home.
"Home.." Katara murmured longingly.
"That's right, Sister. No more South Pole for you. The Fire Nation's Capitol City, Caldera, is your new home." Azula cooed into her ear quietly, playfully teasing her about her new found loyalties. "Now come along. I'm anxious to see the service they provide."
"Yes sister.." Katara murmured emotionlessly, like she was programmed..
The four Red-clad teens enter the beautiful tea shop, and the first thing Katara does is nervously hide behind Azula, almost like she's seen a ghost.
"K..Katara? What's the matter?" Azula asked gently.
"Zuko..." She squeaked.
Just then, said exiled Prince turned to greet his new customers, only to recieve 2 huge surprises.
"Greetings. Welcome to the Jas-Azula?! A..and is that Katara?! Why are you here... and why are you... together?!" He yelled in surprise.
To be continued...
