"This is the city of Omashu? It's so… boring."

Her voice drawled, dripping with venom and hatred. The sun was high in the sky, a soothing breeze staying in the air that kept the hot air away. She was standing in the middle of a busy street, her black jacket covering her fire red shirt and black jeans. She had her hair in a high ponytail, a golden ribbon keeping the hair up in a formal topknot.

"I told you that when you lied to me and brought me here."

This was voice was dull and very monotonous. Her hair, a jet black, framed her face and fell all the way down to her chest just under her breasts. She had lifeless brown eyes that seemed to be boring into your soul. She was wearing black pants with a red jacket and black boots that reached up to her knees. Gloves covered her hand as well.

"Oh come on, Mai, it is too bad."

The last voice was in stark contrast to the other two. It was high pitched and very bubbly. The girl was wearing a pink shirt that exposed her midriff with pink pants and violet colored flats. She had a long braid that reached down to her waist. She had a smile on her face that was the great opposite of Mai and the other girl.

"I still can't believe you lied to me, Azula," Mai whined, turning to the girl in the black jacket.

"Really? I'm hurt that you would think that," Azula said in a mocking tone.

"What are we doing here anyways?" The bubbly girl asked.

"I already told you Ty Lee."

Ty Lee frowned, looking down. "I just wished I could've told the Kyoshi Warriors why I was leaving them."

"That would've been stupid," Mai drawled.

"Enough of your whining," Azula snapped. "We're supposed to meet with Chi-Ran."

"And who the fuck is Chi-Ran?"

"Chi-Ran is a legend of stealth that has trained many soldiers of Caldera's army," Azula explained. "We have a meeting with him to discuss some matters that pertain to my father and what happened in Ba Sing Se."

"You mean the Blue Spirit?" Ty Lee asked as they started walking.

Azula nodded, making sure no one had heard them speaking.

"What does he and Chi-Ran have anything to do with your father?" Mai prompted.

"Chi-Ran has many connections in Ba Sing Se and knows a whole lot more people," Azula went on. "I figured that he must know something about that masked freak."

Even two years later since her father, the Phoenix King Ozai, had sent her to kill the Blue Spirit, she still had no idea it was her brother under the mask. But, Ozai knew that it wouldn't stop Azula. There was a hatred and rivalry between Zuko and Azula that stemmed from their childhood that would always push Azula to want to be the best and the favorite.

"But what if he doesn't know anything, Azula?" Ty Lee interjected.

"Then we kill him," Azula said, plain and emotionless.

Mai shook her head, stepping in front of Azula, holding her hands out and stopping the group dead in their tracks.

"You're kidding, right? If this Chi-Ran really trained Caldera soldiers, what makes you think you can kill him?"

"Oh, I'm not going to kill him," Azula snickered. "We are all going to kill him. Why do you think I summoned all of you here?"

"The goodness of your heart?" Ty Lee asked, always being the optimist.

"So we kill him and then you're done with us?" Mai asked.

"Oh, no, no. After this, we head to Ba Sing Se and deal with that masked freak," Azula said, walking around Mai and continuing onward.

They continued walking down the streets of Omashu. They passed several houses, none of the residents giving them a second look. They gave off this vibe and energy that fended people off. It was mostly Azula, having that slightly sadistic look on her face. It was just a smirk on her face, but there was much else behind that smirk. Pride, anger, rage, envy, lust. All of these things culminated in what was known as Azula.

By the time they reached Chi-Ran's small house, they found the garden was tended to. It was a nice house to look at it, a collection of dragon-peach trees and ginseng plants scattered among the bushes. There was a woman in the garden, her hair tied up with a braid coming down. She looked up, wiping some dirt off of her face with a small smile on her face.

"Can I help you?" She asked.

"Where is Chi-Ran?" Azula snapped.

The smile on her face disappeared. "Who's asking?"

"So, I take it that he is here then," Azula nodded.

"Chi-Ran," The girl yelled into the house.

A few seconds passed before a large man walked out of the house. He had a prosthetic arm, the metal shining with the sun. He had a tattoo of a third vertical eye on his forehead.

"What is it, Jin?" Chi-Ran asked.

Azula stepped forward in front of Jin, crossing her arms over her chest.

"You are Chi-Ran? The teacher of the Caldera soldiers?"

"That is correct. Who are you?"

"My name is Azula, daughter of Caldera and Ozai, the Phoe-…"

"I know who you are," Chi-Ran interrupted. "State your business."

Azula cleared her throat, stepping forward in front of Chi-Ran. She didn't show any fear, or any emotion for that matter. Her face was poised, the smirk never fading away.

"I wish to know anything you know about the events in Ba Sing Se and that of the Blue Spirit," Azula ordered.

"Everyone knows what happened," Chi-Ran said. "Zhao, the Admiral, enacted a plot by your father to take over the city and the Blue Spirit killed him."

Azula shook her head, not satisfied with the answers being presented to her right now.

"Surely you must know something else in those matters," Azula exclaimed. "I know you have connections inside the walls of Ba Sing Se."

Chi-Ran nodded at Jin, who quickly stood up and ran inside the house. The door was shut instantly, the locks clicking as all precautions were being taken by the young brunette.

"Why should I tell you anything?" Chi-Ran asked.

"Because my associates and I don't want to do any harm to that pretty little girl inside," Azula hissed, her smirk growing into a wicked grin.

"If you really wish to know what happened in Ba Sing Se and the Blue Spirit, then I suggest that you go to the city yourself."

Azula's face contorted into one of rage and annoyance. She only nodded slowly, turning around. As her feet turned, she quickly reversed her momentum. She swung her hand across, only to have Chi-Ran block it. She leapt back, already planning her next move. And as she lunged forward, her speed was now showing that Chi-Ran was not ready for. A quick jab to the chest and kidney made him stumble back.

Mai attacked next, pulling out stilettos in one hand and knives in the other. She flung them one at a time, making Chi-Ran sidestep each blade that whizzed by his body. He stopped, trying to catch his breath, cringing as he felt the sting of torn flesh. On his flesh arm and face, where he thought he dodged, were cuts that leaked blood.

It was Ty Lee who came next. Her speed was even greater than that of Azula's. Chi-Ran, however, kept his calm as he was able to match every one of Ty Lee's quick and precise strikes. He felt one hit his good arm, but ignored it, continuing to defend himself. Another kick to the back of his knee and a jab on the elbow. Chi-Ran dropped to one knee, feeling his limbs grow heavy as a numbness racked through his body.

"What is this?" He yelled.

"That would be Ty Lee's pressure point attack," Azula declared. "A good way to cripple our enemies."

The leader of the three now stood in front of Chi-Ran, squatting down. She reached out quickly, taking the large man by the throat, squeezing tightly.

"Now, you pitiful fool, tell me what I wish to know," Azula warned.

"I'd rather rot in Strife with Koh than tell you anything," Chi-Ran hissed.

"Very well."

Azula was swift in her kill. She pulled one of Mai's knives out of the ground, and forced it through Chi-Ran's neck. He gagged and gasped for air as blood poured from both sides of his neck. Azula pushed the body to the ground, the sounds of screams from inside the house causing her to jump.

"Kill her," Azula ordered Mai. "And then we leave."

And so, two deaths plagued Omashu as this wave of chaos ripped through King Bumi's land. Azula, Mai and Ty Lee were all gone by the time anything could be done. No one knew who they were. And now they were off to Ba Sing Se.

A new chaos was coming to the city.
