Manipulative


"Okay so we all know what's going on here?" everyone looked up at Azula with curious eyes, she sighed

"Okay, well as you may know Katara from what I hear and Zuko have been not good they have spent too much time apart and its time to reunite them."

"Okay but how?" Aang said

"It will be easier that it sounds" she said with a laugh

Azula told everyone their part of the plan and what they needed to do, it was Sokka's job to get Katara to the party, and Azula's job to get Zuko their. It was going to be a little bit harder than she had originally thought but it was going to be worth it.

"Oh a party? I love going to parties, I need something to change up my daily schedule…" Katara said in the car a couple days before the get together. She was riding with Sokka Suki and there two kids, "Yeah it should be fun." Suki said

Sokka looked at Suki through the mirror, and winked at her, Katara was too busy looking out of the window.

"Now you are going to this party weather you like it or not…"

"I just don't feel like it."

"I don't care what you feel like doing…besides it's for Uncle." Azula said

"Really? Okay I'll go…" Zuko said

"Great! Its on Thursday at 7…at my house…see you then!"

Day of the party

Everyone was busy with the details of this get back together party, and so far it was working. There was balloons, food and music and it was a good old time. Zuko showed up first, pulling his car up in the drive way.

"Hay Azula," he said walking in

"Oh Hi Zuko, how's it going?"

"Its okay." He said

She had noticed that his eyes weren't as happy as they had been in weeks past, and he was just down all the time and didn't feel like doing things any more.

"Okay well get your self a drink and have a seat." She said

"Kay."

In the few minutes that Zuko had been there Sokka, Suki and Katara pulled up in there silver minivan.

Katara was walking up the front walk and looked at the car in the drive way and though for a moment, but shook it out of her head. They walked in and the party was well on its way. Azula being the awesome one kept Zuko out of site of Katara and Sokka helped out with this, until the perfect moment.

"Hay Zuko will you get me some ice from the kitchen?"

"Yeah, okay."

When Sokka saw Zuko come back from the Kitchen he asked Katara, "Will you get me some ice this drink is hot."

"Yeah sure."

It was exactly as Azula planned it. "What are you doing here?"



"Me what am I doing here? The question is why are you here?"

"I am at this party my sister invited me…"

"My brother brought me here…"

They looked at each other and knew exactly what was going on.

"Here's your drink…what do you think you are doing…?"

"I'm not doing anything."

"Yeah, what is he doing here?" she said pointing at Zuko

"It's not my party, I was just invited." He said coolly

"I will be waiting in the van if you need me." Katara said with tears in her eyes

"What do you think you are doing inviting Katara to this party? We are not meant to be with each other…" he said with a sigh

"Please for the past two weeks, you have done nothing but mope around and being sad…she is one of the reasons you are happy and do well in your life."

Zuko though about what she had said and decided to go talk to Katara.

"Hay."

"Oh now you're going to talk to me…what is with you?"

"What's with me? Nothing is with me nothing is going on…I didn't do anything…"

"Sure that always works, whatever"

"Katara, look I didn't do anything…honest…"

Katara looked at him, at his eyes, she could always tell when he was lying…and he wasn't

"Do you want to try again?"

He looked up at her, "Yeah I do…so do you want to go to this really great party?" he said with a laugh

"Yeah…I do…"
