Dear Journal,
We went to the island where the damn Avatar was supposed to be at. He was gone. The coward flew away on his old hag bison because he was too scared to fight me. Some Avatar he is. How the hell does he think he will 'protect' the world if he can't face the Fire Lord's son? Pathetic.
Anyhow, I could have killed him right on the spot, just before he escaped from my clutches, but there was something holding me back, like a distraction. That water tribe girl glared at me as she pushed me away with a tide of freezing water (I'm still shivering as I write this) against me. I couldn't stop looking at her face because there was something about it that I couldn't get my mind off of. Maybe when I figure it out, I'll jot it down hereā¦
Of course I couldn't just hit the girl, I just couldn't. Is that a bad thing? Does this show weakness? No, no it can't be weakness, it just can't. Zuko will never show weakness to his enemies. Never. I let them go, but I tried not to make it too obvious.
Damn it, curse my fatal decision. I'm going to have to look harder for them now. We're sailing after them in the direction they took off now, but they're long gone. If only I had a flying bison like them, I could have probably gotten to them already.
Crap, I'm never going to find them like this.
Until next time,
-Z.
