Hello again. Ok chapter 2, I would like to thank all the people who reviewed. :) As always I do not own A:TLA. Well on with the story, hope you enjoy. :)

This chapter has been spell checked and grammar checked to the best of my abilities. (They have not be changed at all, the changes I made was to make the story make more sense). The story does not need to be re-read. J

(On Zuko's ship)

"Nephew have you seen Akemi? I can't find her." I sighed, and nearly slammed the map on the table.

I don't need this right now, for the love of Agni!

Be calm, be calm. I breathed in and out a few time and calmed myself.

"She's in her room uncle, where I put her ten minutes ago. I told you that five minutes ago." He must be losing his mind how could he have forgotten that fast.

"That's the thing Prince Zuko, she isn't in there. I want you to go and look for her please, we will be arriving in port in just under fifty minutes, and I want to make sure she's ok."

"I'm sure she's fine uncle." I was trying so hard to get out of this, but it wasn't going to work anytime soon, because he gave me the look; the look that said.

Nephew I am so old and I need you to do this one thing for me. I sighed, he usually only used that when he wants more tea, and last time we ended up with no money. Stupid tea.

"Fine, I'll go look for her, but this means your not getting anymore tea at this port." He nodded. I smirked. First off, I checked her room, not there. Mess hall, not there. I looked all over this dammed ship, nothing where the hell- Lee! I walked out to the deck, down the open corridor, to where the rhinos were kept, there she was, with Lee. Thank Agni.

She safe thank Agni.

What do you care? She a poor little girl from a village, that doesn't even care for her, you could hand her over they would pay you a small fortune...

Don't even think about that, I'm not like my father.

Sure your not it's not like you're his son or anything not like anyone in your nation cares about you. That something you got in common with the girl.

Shut up! My uncle cares. I was starting to get pissed off at this.

No he doesn't don't you see?

See, what?

He is using you. Ever since his son died. You were never that close before, he never loved you, he just misses his son, no one cares about you. No one. He was right... no I was right no one cared, I sighed and left the girl with Lee she was happy. I walked back up the wooden stairs to find my uncle playing Pio sho with Jeriffe. (A/N I don't know how to spell that, sorry.)

"Did you find her nephew?" I just said she was with Lee seeing the rhinos; she would be fine there, until we reach port. I walked off deck.

(Monkey face's ship) A/N Man I hate this guy, but he doses make a story more... well horrid.

"Sir, we will reach port in ten minutes sir." I nodded, I did not bother facing the idiot, I knew Prince Zuko would be there and this time he was going to walk out of that port alive. I smirked, nor will the Avatar.

(Back with Zuko)

"Sir, do you think there something wrong with your nephew?" Jeriffe asked a little concurred. Iroh sighed and shook his head.

"There will always be something wrong with Zuko, and the sad truth is... is that he will never be-"

"Land-ho." The helmsman shouted.

They had arrived at port Shag-ki and it couldn't of been at a worse time than this.

I know, I know it's short and I'm sorry I took so long to update, I was so busy... Well hope you enjoyed it. Please Review. Thank you.
