Things were quiet as Princess Katara showed Zuko around. Zuko noticed that the young woman didn't know where she was going. She acted surprised and astonished by the places they went in the icy kingdom.
"So, you don't leave your palace much, do you?" Zuko commented. Katara's face turned red.
"What do you mean about that?"
"Well, all the places we went, you acted like it's your first time visiting them…" Zuko said.
"Well, my father doesn't let me leave my room much…" Katara muttered.
"Oh, that's too bad…" Zuko said as another awkward moment passed.
The pair entered a boat and stared each other down as they had someone paddle for them.
"Are you not enjoying yourself?" Zuko asked Princess Katara, she had a bored look on her face.
"Not really," Princess Katara dipped a finger into the water and swirled it around. "I just feel so weird, with people staring and having someone paddle for us…."
Zuko looked at the girl. Woman in the Fire Nation always liked to boss the servants around, he remembered his ex-girlfriend Mai, always wanted one of his servants to come with them whenever they went out.
"Why don't we do something more exciting?" Katara said suddenly. Zuko raised an eyebrow.
"Like what?"
"Wanna go penguin sledding?" Katara asked suddenly.
"What's that?" Zuko asked. Princess Katara gave a smirk.
Zuko grasped Katara's small waist as they slid down the snow, he sat behind Princess Katara as she controlled the animal.
"Wooh Hoo!" Princess Katara screamed, giggling happily. Zuko couldn't help but feel a smile on his face as he and the young woman screamed in delight.
"Uh, Princess Katara, don't you think we're going a little too fast?" Zuko shouted.
"What?" Princess Katara asked. "You want to go faster?" She then bend the snow to ice, they were going much faster.
"Slow down!" Prince Zuko yelled.
"What?" Katara shouted. "You want me to bend more?"
"No!"
"What do you mean I'm bending too slow!"
"Watch out!" Zuko said as he turned them the other way from the upcoming tree.
They then ended up going off the icy path and into a rock. Katara felt herself flop on something warm and hard. She landed in Prince Zuko's chest.
"That was kind of fun," Prince Zuko laughed. Katara smiled and joined in on the laughter. She then scooped some snow and threw it in Prince Zuko's face.
"Hey!" Zuko said.
"What's the matter, can't handle a little snow?" Princess Katara teased. She then got hit by an even bigger snowball.
"Can't keep up?" Prince Zuko challenged.
"You're on!" Katara said as she used her Waterbending to form eight snowballs, throwing them at Zuko.
"Hey, that's cheating!" Prince Zuko laughed. He then heated up the area so that the snowballs melted before it touched him. He smirked.
"No fair!" Princess Katara pouted.
"Maybe we should head back?" Prince Zuko asked. "The banquets going to start soon!"
"Oh yeah!" Princess Katara said. "I forgot, I need to get ready!" Katara stared at her clothes, which was full of snow. She then took Zuko's hand and the pair went back to the palace.
