Chapter 6

A good two years had passed since that time. Since them I had discovered I was able to bend the other elements as well. I was constantly lurking in the shadows and Everytime Zuko Fell out of a tree I tried to use airbending to catch him as he fell. It made great practise but I couldn't openly admit that I was the avatar otherwise that meant I would be executed on the spot. Um... No thanks...Even so...Sometimes I would get careless and Zuko would catch me following him. Like for today for instance.

"I know your there! Come out. This charade is getting old!" Zuko shouted in aggravation.

"Aw does someone need a nap?" I taunted.

"No. Leave me alone!" Zuko shouted again.

"Can't. Love to. But Can't!" I responded shrugging like I didn't care one way or another.

"Why is that?!" Zuko asked gritting his teeth.

"Because, A bunch of fire Nation hating rebels are just a few miles down that road. I just wanted to warn you." I replied innocently.

I was for the most part not guilty but. He wouldn't believe me anyway. Yet I was also the reason those guys were there in the first place. Long story short I wanted someone to do something about the prince. I couldn't have him growing up to being like his father. He was a good kid. But his father is going to break him eventually.

"Then come with me if your so worried" Zuko offered.

He knew I hated him why. Especially since this was a set up.

"What are you planning to do?" I asked Worried about him for real this time.

"I'm going to see if I can convince them to leave peacefully." Zuko responded simply.

He really was naive. But looking at him right now...I got the feeling He really could do it. So I went with him to meet the people who I hired to kill him. This should be interesting.

Time skip

It turns out they were planning on betraying me as I had just found out by going there and getting captured with Zuko. Who was super pissed that I was the one who tipped them off about his whereabouts in the first place.

"I can't believe you would set me up like this. I thought you hated bandits anyways?!" Zuko whisper-shouted, bewildered.

"Look... I hated your guts before but after being forced to protect you in secret by your father You kind of grew on me. I didn't feel right sending you to these thugs and..." But Zuko interrupted me.

"Wait a second! My father was the one who told you to stalk me!" Zuko whisper shouted again, in surprise this time.

"Uh Duh! My life was on the line. He was going to kill me. I had no choice but to agree... Yet after awhile...I found myself thinking maybe...Well...For a noble...You are so bad" I whispered smiling.

"I guess...You might've kind of sort of grown on me as well...Only... I wish you would have told me at the start before any of this could happen" Zuko mumbled.

"Were not down for the count yet! Look!" I declared in a whisper.

My pet a beautiful snow white fire wolf suddenly was seen by the bandits because she blasting fire in every direction torching their whole camo. Then she bounded over to us wild and bit the ropes into bits.

"Good Girl Fira. Can grow in size to give us a ride girl?" I asked my furry friend.

In response she grew to the size of something ridable. Zuko and me climbed onto her back and took ooff never once looking behind us.

When I brought him home in one piece he reluctantly climbed off of Fira's back and looked at me.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing!... I just...Thanks for doing the right thing in the end...I'd probably be dead without your help" Zuko responded.

I grinned.

"Don't make it a habit, ok? I won't always be around to bail you out!" I responded playfully.

"Whatever..."Zuko said rolling his eyes.

"See ya later Zuko!" I said waving and leaving him standing there.

Just when things had been looking up. Things will all to quickly would take a turn for the worse.
