I know, I take too long to update but I would like to thank everyone who reviewed. I really appreciate it. So without further ado, chapter 4!
Forgive him! Katara's head screamed at her. You know that you are glad to be back with him. After all you two have been through, give him a second chance. All he wanted to do was get you back.
Her mind buzzed as she devoured the food before her. She didn't know what else to do. All she knew at that moment was that she was captured, stuck on Zuko's ship, and extremely hungry. Soon her "prince" would return and she wasn't in the chatty mood.
Katara glided to dresser and placed the empty tray down. As she looked up, she saw a reflection staring her square in the eyes. But the girl in the mirror looked nothing like the happy child she was once known as. She saw a woman with sorrow filled blue eyes in her place. It killed her inside to see what she had become. The must be a brush in one of these drawers. Maybe, that would help? She pondered to herself.
That's when she found it. It wasn't a brush, far from it, but the most beautiful bracelet she had ever seen. It was a pure gold chain with sapphire charms dangling loosely every so often. Where did this come from? How did it get here?
But all further questions were delayed because, once again, Zuko was standing before her. She tried to hide the bracelet, but it was too late.
"What is that you have there?" Zuko questioned as he extended his arm.
"I was looking for a brush and I just found it. I wasn't going to take it, I just noticed it was so pretty. Where did you get it?" Katara replied while placing the jewelry in Zuko's palm.
"Wouldn't you like to know?" He teased. Then, for the first time in what seemed like forever, Katara let out a small giggle. It was the closest thing she had done that even came close to a laugh. Katara's giggle also triggered a reaction from Zuko. Ever so slightly, a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
A few moments passed in silence until there was a small knock at the door. Zuko straightened up and turned around to answer it. Katara just stood there in silence. The door slowly opened and a fire nation troop stepped in and hand Zuko a letter.
Slowly, Zuko opened the letter. A few seconds later the letter burst into flames on the floor and Zuko exited the room. Katara had no idea what was on the letter but what ever it was, it made Zuko angry. What ever it was, Katara had to know.
Yeah, it's short but at least I updated. I had a little but of writers block but I think I'm Ok now. Please review!
