Chapter 4

One of the female guards ended up giving Scarlett her extra clothes so she wouldn't be stuck in Zuko room. "Scarlett would you care for some tea?" Iroh said when Scarlett pins down Zuko. Scarlett looks up and releases Zuko. She sat down and started drinking tea. "Where did you learn to fight like that?" Zuko demanded. "A man found me in the forest when I was a little girl. He taught me how to read, write, fight, he even showed me to control my fire. He treated me different from his own daughter and his wife didn't like it. He was like a father to me and I was like a daughter to him as well. One night his wife wakes me up in the middle of the night telling me that she has a gift for me in the barn. I thought it was the black horse that I wanted but it wasn't. She sold me to the black market and I never saw the man or his family again." Scarlett said as Iroh pours more tea to everyone.

"I'm sorry that had happen to you, now you're in a much better place no thanks to the crew." Iroh said and started to laugh. "Yes the crew." Scarlett said as she cuts her eyes towards one of the guys that chain her up. He started to get scared and left the deck. "Prince Zuko I'm afraid the tide is getting stronger as we approach the royal docks. Shall you want us to keep going or wait till they calm down?" The captain told Zuko. "Just wait till they die down since we have a small ship." Zuko said as Scarlett started to laugh.

"Zuko your father should be please with your new future wife." Iroh said as he started making more tea. Scarlett tea cup fell out of her hand and broke. "I never agreed to that and you know it." Scarlett said as she backhands Zuko. "Well then get over it. If my father approves of you then you will be." Zuko said as he flips Scarlett on her back. "I am just so happy to finally be back at home and have a quite good night sleep." Iroh laughs out. "What does that mean uncle?" Zuko demanded. "It means that you are very loud the both of you." Iroh said looking towards Scarlett. She blushes as Zuko turn white as a ghost.

By the time Zuko small ship made it back without harm it was late in the night. Zuko, Scarlett, and Iroh left the ship but the crew ended up sleeping on it one more night. Iroh headed towards his room as Scarlett followed Zuko to his. Scarlett places a bag on Zuko bed as he unpacks two of the bag he had. She pulls out a robe and started tying Zuko hands to the bed posts. "We could wait until a few more days of being here." Scarlett said as she finishes the last knot of the rope. "It will be weeks before we can do this again and besides my father will make sure that we have different rooms until I marry you." Zuko said as Scarlett cuts off his shirt.

"Maybe I don't want to become your wife. You just think I do. If you wish to marry someone then you must ask for their hand in marriage." Scarlett said as she gags Zuko. Using a small knife Scarlett started cutting small cuts across his chest and back. Scarlett started to blow on the knife to make the blade hot and places it on his stomach. His screams were being block since he was gag. Picking up a long black whip as she smiles to Zuko.

The sound of a whip against Zuko chest bounce off the walls for several minutes until he set the rope that ties him to the bed post on fire. Ripping off the mouth gag Zuko strips Scarlett and tosses her on the bed. Spreading her legs as Zuko gets closer he grabs her legs and drags her closer to him. Scarlett sat up to push Zuko on his back. With a little help from Zuko she took off his pants and guides Zuko harden penis inside of her as she sat on him. Placing her hands on the bed and her face close to his to kiss him. Zuko sat up and held Scarlett as she rode him hard. He started running his nails down Scarlett back as he came.

Sun rays started to shine in the room as they finally went to bed. Zuko knew that he had a meeting with his father so he had no choice but to get up and get dress. "I have to go meet my father and if things go well he will request to see you. Until then I will have the servants show you to your room." Zuko said as he gave Scarlett a black robe to wear. She watches Zuko putting on layers and layers of robes on and left. A servant enters the room as Scarlett puts on the robe. "Please follow me to your room Lady Scarlett." The servant said as she bows to Scarlett. She remembers what Zuko told her that when she comes to the palace she will have to act like she came from a royal family. Scarlett nodded her head and began to follow the servant down the huge hallway.

Walking through the halls for a few minutes Scarlett was shown to her room. The servant closes the door and Scarlett found another three female servants in her room holding new clothes. "Crown Prince Zuko told us to dress you into your new training gear." One of the servants said a shaky voice. "Thanks and you really don't have to dress me." Scarlett said as she tried to dismiss them. "The crown prince told us not to leave you alone until you have been here for awhile." The servant holding a pair of boots told Scarlett. Once she was dress she asks one of the servants to take her around the palace.

The servant answers all of Scarlett questions until Zuko dismiss the servant. "My father requests to see you. He will have someone ready to challenge you to see your skills and all you know. If he chooses my sister Azula who is a fire bender prodigy then you will have to give it your all." Zuko told Scarlett as they walk towards the war room. With a small detour he wanted Scarlett to see the court yard with the pond he used to spend time with his mother. "My mother brought me here a lot with I was little to feed the turtles ducks. I figure we should start training in this court yard when you done with my father." Zuko said with a small smile.

"Are you sure you want everyone to see you butt kick by a girl?" Scarlett asks and started laughing at Zuko. Zuko quits walking and Scarlett bumps into him. "You may not believe me Scarlett but you are very beautiful and kind." Zuko said as he places his hand on her cheek. He leans in to kiss her but she pulls away as she blushes. He pins her to the wall and kiss her. "We will be late if you keep going." Scarlett said after breaking the kiss. With her arm on Zuko arm he led the way to his father. The two didn't realize that other people were in the court yard. "Mai I'm sorry that you saw that." Ty Lee said to her friend. "I don't care no more. He will come back to me wait and you will see." Mai said as she threw a knife and hits her target.

Zuko and Scarlett were let in the war room. "Is this her Prince Zuko?" A man sitting behind the fire asks a question. "Yes father." Zuko said as he bows. "Leave us" Fire Lord Ozai order Zuko. After Zuko left Ozai stood up and walks towards Scarlett. "My son was right. You are indeed a beautiful woman. How old are you and how did you come across my son." Ozai asks Scarlett as he touches her hair. Scarlett told Ozai that she was 15 and her life story. "Zuko said that you are still a virgin is that true?" Ozai asks Scarlett. "No I am not. I have been with your son more than once." Scarlett answers with the truth. "If what you're saying is true then why did my son lie to me?" Ozai started questioning her. "He lied to you after what happen with a girl name Mai. He wanted you to approve of me to become his wife and the next fire nation princess." Scarlett told Ozai. "I see. I will let Zuko knows after I see you how well you can fight." Ozai said as he walks back up to where he sits.

Just what Zuko said she had to fight with his sister to prove how well she could fight. Ozai was already impressed by the color of her fire. Azula was blue but Scarlett was green. Five minutes of fighting Ozai stop the two girls match. "You both can leave and tell Zuko to come in." Ozai said. Azula left upset after Scarlett left. Zuko told Scarlett that he will meet her in the court yard that he showed her. Walking back by herself and enters the court yard. She sat down by the pond and watches the turtle ducks making splashes on each other.

Zuko came back out with a sour look on his face. He found Scarlett undertaker the tree next to the pond and went to her. Scarlett watches Zuko walking towards her and laid down placing his head in her lap. "I have one question for you." Zuko finally said. Scarlett looks down at Zuko waiting to hear the question. "I thought about what you said and you are right. Would you give me the honor of being my wife Scarlett?" Zuko asks as he faces the pond. "You show me kindness while most did not. I know that you have pain in your heart with trust issues for many reasons. You tell me what you think I should know and I don't ask questions about past." Scarlett told Zuko.

"Is that a no?" Zuko said with a firm voice. "Am I still here?" Scarlett asks Zuko. "Yes you are." Zuko replied. "Then you have my answer." Scarlett said as covers Zuko face with grass. Zuko smiled as he looks up at Scarlett. "I take it that your father approvers of me." Scarlett asks Zuko. "He said that he should send you away for lying to him but since you have a rare fire and skilled for a 15 year old he approves of you. He did say that guards will stand guard at night at the doors to our rooms." Zuko said with a chuckle. "I feel sorry for you already." Scarlett chuckles. "Don't be I will find a room for us during the day just to have one on one training." Zuko said as he pulls Scarlett in for a kiss.
