Seven tossed and turned hurting and aching everywhere on her body.
Her legs, from traveling.
Her arms, from bending.
Her stomach, from lack of food and finally her head from a headache!
she let out a puff of air that was suppose to be a groan but no noise came out from her muteness.
She cracked her yellow eyes open seeing an old man
"Ah! i see your awake!" He said and she looked around.
Fire nation.
She sat up quickly scared and moved backwards and held her knee's
"No no! i wont hurt you i promise!" he vowed and she looked a little unsure.
"I was just treating your wounds!" he told her and she looked down at her tummy and it had scratches and bruises everywhere
"You've been out for a day and prince Zuko finally left your room making sure you wouldn't leave!" he said and smiled and Seven felt a bit better and she smiled
"Now i must tie you up!" he said and her smile dropped
"Just so Zuko wont know, he is very mean!" he said and she had told herself he seemed trust worthy and she allowed him to tie her up and with that he left and put a finger to his lip and she smiled at the old man and she sat there.
She got out of the rope easily and smiled then grabbed a book and read.
Moments past and she herd heavy feet but continued reading and the door slammed open.
She looked up in a bored matter and saw a boy.
He was prince Zuko
"Your out of your rope!" he said angrily and forced me to turn around and i cooperate and he left yelling
"Uncle!" did he give up on something? she sat there and un-did the rope and read again.
he walked in with the old man and she looked up.
The boy seemed frustrated
"Will you stop that!" he yelled angry and turned her around again then tied her up.
when he left the old man had a smile playing on his lips.
this continued and continued until the 5th time
"WILL YOU QUIT THAT OR I WILL KILL YOU!" He screamed and Seven just smiled cutely.
he glared and screamed and left her.
untied and happy.
Seven read until night time and Zuko had walked in angry.
he set Her down some food and Seven dropped the 3rd volume of the book the fire nation girl was reading and she headed to the food but he pulled it away
"First your giving me information" he said simply and the female sat down on the bed criss-cross and rocked back and forth and waited for a question
"will you stop that!" he yelled.
that seemed more of a command then a question...
"Whats your name" he had told her and she held up the number 7 like she did with the Avatar.
"I'm not playing charades!" he yelled and the mute flinched and glared then held her throat and he raised a brow and she rolled her golden eyes angry and tried screaming but only air came out
"I don't understand!" he yelled and the girl smacked herself and the kind fire nation man came in
"Whats the problem?" he asked the prince
"She wont talk to me!" he told his uncle and she smacked her face.
she gave high hopes.
She began doing sign language to them and the man smiled and patted her shoulder and stood next to her
"She's a mute" he told him and he sat there
"Couldn't you write it down?" Zuko yelled and she sighed and his uncle shook his head
"Im sorry for him" he told her and she shook her head and motioned her hands and then the number seven and he nodded
"She said 'My name is Seven' " with that Zuko sat there and nodded
"Well.. 'Seven' whats your connection with the Avatar?" he spat her name and she glared and smacked herself and did her sign language fast and angry and rubbed her forehead
"Seven said 'Is that why you brought me to this-' uhh...umm 'Dump' " Iroh smiled and Zuko glared at her and grabbed her collar
" 'Dump?' " he yelled and she stuck out her tongue in a childish way and he held a fist to her throat as a threat to burn it off
"Answer my question!" he yelled and she flinched and did her signs.
Iroh translated
" ' I met him at the market when i was trying to save him then after the pirates that's all, i only knew him for a day' "with that Zuko glared
"Your telling the truth?" he growled and she nodded.
Zuko dropped her and slammed the door and she sat there.
Seven looked at the tray then perked up and grabbed it then munched down on the rice first.
"Looks like your hungry!" Iroh laughed and she nodded with a full mouth of rice and he shook his head laughing
"Good night!" he managed to get threw his chuckles and she nodded and as he left the girl swallowed it down then looked at her book and walked to it.
She marked the page and set it down on the book self and she sighed 'Life stinks' she mouthed and looked at the remaining food.
She only ate rice.
Seven looked at it then grabbed the food.
She looked back and forth then began walking down the hall.
She went and went then when she made it out of the hallways she almost ran into the guards but hid as fast as she could and sighed.
she looked around and headed to the lower deck and once she got there, there was one prisoner.
She walked to him and frowned then glanced at the guard sleeping and sat there.
terrible work.
Seven walked to the old skinny man and smiled.
she handed him the food and he looked up from the corner.
His face lit up like fire and crawled to the food and ate it
"Bless you!" he whispered and she smiled and watched him eat with pleasure and when he was almost finish i herd then door way to here slam open
"Where are you!" she herd Zuko yell and looked at the plate with worry and threw it across the room into a hay pile and the guard woke up from his nap.
"Prince Zuko!" the guard said fast and looked at Seven.
she sat there and watched the man crawl away and she sat there and sweat dropped and waved a bit
"How dare you leave!" he yelled and grabbed her arm with force and took Seven out not caring about either men in there and dragged the helpless small figure out.
he walked grumbling all such of stuff then she saw his Uncle.
'Yes!' she thought happily and watched him stop the boy in his tracks
"Whats the matter nephew?" he asked holding a hand to his chest
"She left her room to the cells to the man who broke into the ship! maybe we should throw her in the cells!" he glared and at the last part he looked at her with a sharper glare and she shot it right back.
This lemur had no chance against the pladispus (cant spell it and cant correct it) bear.
"Zuko, don't push her around to much her wounds would open!" he told his nephew worried about the girl and ignoring the main problem.
"No-!" with that he was cut off by her biting his wrist
"Augh!" he yelled grabbing his bleeding hand she hid behind Iroh scared
"Ill kill her!" he yelled angry and she looked with sad eyes at Iroh.
He was a sucker for puppy eyes.
"Well Prince Zuko.. dont you need her to get to the Avatar!" The retired general said trying to convinced his nephew and Zuko looked away and crossed his arms.
"After that, i WILL kill her" The prince spat and began walking away
"Make sure to get your hand check!" Iroh yelled out and all Zuko did was grumbled.
Seven sat there and when he was gone She hugged him.
if she could yell thank you she would
"Your welcome!" Iroh laughed out and she let go
'I'm going to go to bed night night!' She smiled after putting her hands down an waved then skipped away
"This couldn't get any worse..." Zuko's Uncle mumbled and rubbed his forehead.
Seven woke up in the morning yawning and looked around where she was.
Her expression dropped.
She was still in hell.
Well keep your high hopes!
She walked out the door to the Dock seeing Iroh and Zuko
"Ah, good morning Seven!" Iroh said and i smiled a little sleepy and with the Zuko turned to me
"Who said you could leave your room!" he yelled and she sat there and turned to Iroh doing sign language
"Seven said 'I did' " Iroh translated and rubbed his forehead and with that he glared at the smiling girl and shook it off then turned to the ocean and pulled his telescope to his eye and Iroh took a deep breath of air
"Theres a storm coming..." he mumbled now serious and Seven looked up.
She had sat on down criss cross.
Zuko looked at his uncle
"A big one too..." he added along the line
"Your out of your mind Uncle!" Zuko told the older man and Seven's head bolted to him
"The weather's perfect!" he told him walking over to the retired general and Seven stood
"Theres not a could in sight!" he stated glaring at Iroh
"A storm is approaching from the North!" he told the banished prince and Seven thought about it and silently agreed with the old man and he turned to his nephew
"I suggest we change our course and head south-west!" Iroh told him and Seven nodded
"We know the Avatar is heading north!" Zuko said pointing in front of them and Seven looked that way
"So we will do the same" he finished and put his hands behind his back and Seven glared
"Prince Zuko, consider the safety of the crew!" He said trying to convince him and Seven smiled.
Maybe this would work...
"The safety of the crew doesn't matter!" he yelled and Seven stared seeing a crew member walking by and they turned to each other.
'Oops..' Seven mouthed and watched him raise a brow
"Finding the Avatar is far more important then the safety of the crew!" The prince said walking to the Crew member and glaring.
After that Zuko walked off away from them and Seven sighed
"He doesn't mean that! hes just worked up!" he said trying to convince the crew member and Seven just patted his shoulder shaking her head then headed along Zuko;s tracks.
She raced up to him and put a hand on his shoulder and he turned and glared
"What?" he spat and she flinched
"Say what you need to say and fast, My uncle tought me some sign language last night" he stated with an attitude and she sighed
'Why are you so focused on the Avatar, yes you want your honor but you can hold it off for one day!' she glared and put her hands down and he grabbed her neck and shoved her against the wall
"I'm the boss here not you" he growled and turned leaving her coughing on the floor and soon a couple of crew members checked if she was okay.
They would choose her over Zuko ANY day.
Once she motioned that she was okay she headed to the deck and sat there looking out to the ocean.
Time passed and soon she noticed the sky.
She head to the nearest crew members and ended up writing on paper and warning them and soon they went outside and looked up at the sky.
Zuko soon came out and she looked a little scared but sucked it in and held her throat but took it away.
"Oh, looks like your Uncle was right about the storm after all!" The member that was around when Zuko mentioned safety of the crew didn't matter had told him and Iroh had came on que and Seven raced to him.
She felt very safe with him.
"Lucky guess!" Iroh said smiling and Seven did a mute giggle
"Lieutenant!" Zuko called out turned to them
"You better learn some respect!" He mentioned and walked to him putting two fingers to his chest.
"Or ill teach it to you..." he added and turned away leaving Seven slightly worried
"What do you know about respect?" he called to him as he walked away then Iroh and Seven waved there hand in front of there neck at the same time worried and Zuko stopped in his tracks
"The way you talk to everyone around here from your hard working crew to your esteemed Uncle then the poor Mute, you know nothing about respect!"
He yelled out and Seven couldn't help but agree then washed it away and worried filled her face and the older man did too and Iroh held a palm to his face and Seven put a caring hand on his shoulder
"You don't care about anyone but yourself!" he yelled out continuing
"Then again what can i expect from a spoiled prince!" he yelled out holding his arms out and with that Zuko finally turned and turned holding a hand out with his elbow set back and his right near his elbow.
Lieutenant did the same thing and Iroh told them
"Easy now..." and walked to them as they held wrist to wrist and Zuko's hand started smoking.
Seven followed along with Iroh worried then before anything happen she forced her hand up then in the middle of there hands and they held there hands
"Enough!" Iroh yelled and backed them away
"Thank you Seven!" he mumbled to her and she nodded then he faced back to them
"We are all tired from being at sea for a bit too long" he started taking his hands away from them
"I'm sure after a bowl of noodles, everyone will feel much better!" Zuko's uncle said smiling and Seven nodded smiling along, plus drooling.
Lieutenant left and Zuko just turned facing the sea
"I don't need help keeping order of my ship!" he told them and Seven held a sadden face and she watched as Iroh walked up to Zuko and put a hand on his shoulder but Zuko shoved it off and she glared angry and watched him walk further up the watched Iroh walk away sadly and she glared at Zuko and ran to him grabbing his shoulder and forced him to turn.
Zuko glared at her and was surprise to see her having tears in her eyes
'Your a terrible person you know that?' she done sign language and walked off and went after his uncle.
Soon the storm started and she was with his Uncle and he never asked why she was crying when he reached her uncle now.
"Why were you crying Seven?" He asked and she shook her head and he nodded understanding and soon the made it to the lower deck and they listened to them talk
"I'm sick of following his order's I'm sick of chasing his 'Avatar'!" Lieutenant yelled flinging his arms around while drinking something
"Do you really want to know?" Iroh finally said and they looked in surprise seeing Seven and Iroh
"General Iroh!" he said in surprise and stood up
"We were just-" and they were cut off
"Its okay" Iroh said holding his hand up at them and Seven smiled
"May we join you?" he asked
"Of course!" they said and opened 2 seats for them
"Try to understand" Iroh began stroking his beard and Seven said oddly with them kinda uncomfortable
"My nephew is a complicated young man" he told them he has been threw much!" he told them and began the story.
Zuko walked down the hall but then was blocked by a guard
"Let me in!" he yelled at them then his Uncle came along
"Prince Zuko, whats wrong!" he said and put his hands on Zuko's shoulder's
"I want to go into the war chamber but the guard wont let me in!" Zuko cried and Iroh shook his head and lead him away
"Your not missing anything! trust me!" His Uncle told Zuko smiling
"These meetings are dreadfully boring!" he finished patting The young boy's shoulder
"if I'm going to rule this nation one day" Zuko began looking down then looked up with a big smile
"Don't you think i need to learn as much as i can?" he added smiling and Iroh sat there for a moment then agreed "Very well" he said simply
"But you must promise not to speak!" Iroh mentioned taking a glance at a older man than him walking by
"these old folks are really sensitive you know?"
"Thank you Uncle!" Zuko bowed and with that Iroh led his nephew into the war chamber.
"The earth Kingdom defenses are concentrated here" an older man spoke
"The danger's of there strongest earth benders and fierces warriors, So i am recommending first divisions" he stated and slid a fire nation sign to about 5 earth nation's signs
"But the thirty first is entire new requites!" a man with a long beard mentioned
"how do you expect them to kill a powerful earth kingdom badalion!"(tired my best) he added
"I don't" the other man said simply
"they will be used as a distraction as we mount a rear attack!" he said then looked to his side and back at the man
"Whats better than using as bait then fresh meat" he smiled but it disappeared as Zuko stood
"You cant sacrifice an entire division like that!" then he continued
"Those soldier's love and defend our nation! how can you betray them like that?" Zuko said angrily.
They all glared at him.
"Zuko was right though, it was not his place to speak out" Iroh continued and Seven gave an awfully sad face.
She felt bad at yelling at him but at the same time he deserved it
"And there were... consequences..." he continued
"After Zuko's outburst at the meeting..
The fire lord became very angry with him...
He said Prince Zuko's challenge with the general was an act of complete disrespect!" He explained and Seven thought angry and tapped on Iroh's shoulder and he looked at her and watched her gester her hands
'But, that's completely unfair! Zuko had a right to out burst! they were going to allow people with family's and friends die!' she motioned and he nodded and translated for her
"She said that he had a right and that they were allowing people with friends family and such die, and i agree he did but there was only one thing that could resolve this.." he looked down for a moment
"Angni Kai a fire duel" Lieutenant said the last part to let Seven know what it was
"Yes that's right, Zuko looked upon the old general he had insulated and declared that he was not afraid!" explained and sighed
"But Zuko misunderstood... We he turned to face his opponent, he was surprise to see that it was not the general! Zuko had spoken out against the general's plan but by doing so in front of the fire lord's war room, it was the fire lord whom he had disrespected!" he added sadly
"Zuko would have to fight his own father!" (ill explain why i used the word 'Fight' instead of 'Do' after the chapter is over) The retied General explained
"When Prince Zuko had figured out that it was his father who he had to fight him, he begged for mercy! and he got down and bowed begging but Fire lord showed no mercy and hit his own son with fire... and i looked away" he finished and Seven felt terrible in a way
"I always thought... that Prince Zuko was in a training accident" Lieutenant amited
"It was no accident!" Iroh added "After the duel, fire lord said that by refusing to fight, Zuko had showed shameful,
weakness,
and as punishment...
he was banished and sent to capture the Avatar and only then! could he return his honor.."
"So that's why he is obsessed...capturing the Avatar is his only chance of things returning to normal.." Lieutenant mumbled
"Things will never return to normal!" The retired general began
"But the import thing is.. The Avatar gives him hope."
Seven stood angry and her face was covered by her hair
"Seven?" Iroh said confused
'My parents dumped me away and got rid of me and abused me like crap and you don't see me asking for honor' She motioned her hands in an angry fashion
"There's no need for those words" Iroh explained and held his hands up but she glared and stormed out and they watched her.
At the same moment Zuko was thinking...
Remembering his past then suddenly lighting struck and hit the ship and he herd a big Thump!
and stood up and ran out and looked both ways and to his right he saw Seven on the floor looking frightened
"Seven?" he said awfully confused to his hostage and she looked up with tears
"What the matter?" he asked a little coldly
'Lighting..' She did the sign language shaky
"Your afraid?" he said confused and she nodded closing her eyes and covered her face and he looked at her then stood her up
"Come on ill take you to Uncle" he mumbled not sure how to comfort people and she nodded and they went to the front and he was there.
The lighting went off and she flinched and clingged to Zuko and he sat there and moved her off to his Uncle.
They ended up tripping a bit
"Where were we hit?" Zuko yelled
"Look!" Iroh pointed out the top of the ship and a man was hanging.
Seven flinched at another hit of lighting
"Help Him!" Zuko yelled and Seven looked worried trying to think then she watched as Zuko and Lieutenant ran to the ladder to help then they sat there and Iroh sat there then motioned her back and controlled lighting and it scared her a bit but he sat there a little toasted and she smirked but it disappeared as another shock of lighting went off.
she then turned hearing a scream with wide eyes seeing a man hanging but then Zuko grabbed to him and seven smiled then ran to the ladder as he handed him to Lieutenant him and he passed the man to Seven and she helped him down and he nodded smiling at her.
She flinched as another boom went off but helped Lieutenant down and when she got to Zuko she smiled at him and he looked a little confused.
They walked to Iroh then Zuko's eyes widen
"The Avatar!" he yelled
"What do you want to do?" Lieutenant asked and he sat there for a second and looked down
"Let him go.." he whispered and she smiled brightly and waved at Aang
"We need to get this ship get this ship to safety" He mumbled
"Then we must head to the eye of the storm!" Iroh explained and they nodded and she watched them.
She flinched as more lighting went off and Iroh looked at her worried and put an arm around her assuring her then soon a loud boom went off and she buried her face into his arm but then looked up and let go of him and smiled happily and cheered that there were no more lighting
"Uncle.." Zuko started and stood next to Iroh
"..I'm sorry" he continued and Seven stopped and listened
"Your apology is accepted" He said putting a hand on his nephew's shoulder and he walked away and looked at Seven as she began walking to Zuko and did a cheesy smile and he raised a brow at the Mute but then they looked into the ocean as there was a light and there Aapa came out and Seven smiled brightly and waved happily and Zuko watched surprised and Aang looked back and gave a worried look knowing he had to lead Katara and Sokka back to safety with the fisherman
"Ill save you soon!" he yelled at Seven and she tilted her head and waved smiled but Zuko just watched and once he disappeared Seven turned to Zuko with her hands on her hips
"What?" he asked
'Ar'nt you going to say sorry?' she had done sign language and he sat there
"Like i said before.. my uncle tought me SOME sign language" with that he walked off getting away with the excuse and Seven puffed her cheeks.
