So without further ado, the next chapter:
PREPARING
Subtitled as: A NEW GUEST
Azula was sitting on her favorite chair, which nobody was allowed to touch. "When are those peasants coming?" she sighed. "I'm bored!"
Ty lee giggled. "Maybe they stopped for gas…"
"Ty Lee, it's 7:30" Azula sighed once more.
Ty Lee smiled. "Stop doing that, you're turning into Mai…"
Azula narrowed her eyes at Ty lee. "Ty lee, why don't you fetch Mai and my dum dum of a brother."
Ty lee shrugged. "Okay Azula…" she said standing up.
This is bad. Thought Azula. We need more guests… maybe one or two more… my plan cannot pursue without more than who we already invited… perhaps one of Zuko's past… acquaints… she smiled.
"Ty Lee."
Ty lee looked back. "Yeah?"
"Never mind my brother and Mai. We don't want to disturb them. Anyway, call more guests. Why not some of the people in Zuko's phonebook?"
Ty Lee smiled. Leave it to Azula to make Ty lee's life interesting. "Okay…" She reached for Zuko's personal phonebook. Azula just smiled.
"Let's see… the people here are:
Uncle
Father
Azula aka the devil…"
Azula lazed her eyes. "Interesting…"
"Mai
Ty Lee… hey that's me!"
Azula sighed. "Continue…"
"Katara!?"
Azula sat up. "Why does he have that peasant's number?"
Ty Lee giggled and handed Azula the book.
Azula read it silently.
Katara the Water Peasant
5548548
note to self: Prank Call every 2 days. Make sure she is pissed off and hang up.
Azula snorted. "He doesn't have a life… does he?"
Ty Lee shrugged, then took the book back.
"Sokka… the cutie."
"Ty lee, I hope you added that not him"
She grinned. "Aang
Toph Bei Fong…"
"I'm growing bored here, Ty Lee."
Ty Lee sighed. "…and that's all. Why does he even keep a phonebook if there are only such few contacts?"
Azula saw a piece of paper dangling on the side of the book. "Ty Lee, hand me the book, please."
Ty Lee obeyed.
She took the paper, which turned out to be a card, and read it.
Lee,
I know what and why you did it. I just want you to know I forgive you, but you have some explaining to do, idiot. My mom thought I sold our ostrich horse and grounded me for a month.
Whenever you want someone to talk to, just call me, okay? Here's my number:
5565856
Sincerely, Song
"I should really know more of my brother…"
Ty lee's eyes widened. "Really? Why?"
"I'm sure Mai would be frustrated to know…"
Ty Lee jumped. "Come on, Azula, tell me!"
But Azula ignored it. "Ty lee, call this number, if you please." She handed her the piece of paper, hiding the letter.
Ty Lee took out her phone. "Okay." She dialed the number.
Why is that sad look in your eyes Is it your heart
Why are you crying?
Tell me now, tell me now
Tell me, why you're feelin' this way
I hate to see you so down
Oh, that's breakin' all in pieces
Makin' you cry
Makin' you feel blue
Is there anything that I can do?
"Hello?" answered a soft voice.
"Um, Song?" answered Ty Lee as she read the name off the piece of paper Azula was holding.
"Yes, do I know the person speaking?"
"Actually, no. I'm a friend of Lee."
Ty lee heard a tiny gasp.
"Why are you calling?" she asked surprised.
"You see, Lee is having a party and you're invited… it's his birthday…"
Song lowered her eyebrows. "I'd love to go. But may I know why I'm invited?"
Azula took the phone from Ty Lee. "Consider it his apology and a way to make it up to you." Then she handed the phone back to Ty lee.
Song was surprised once more by the voice. "Okay… I'll go." She finally said.
"Great, can you go here now?"
"Um, sure. Where exactly is 'here'?"
"Oh yeah… um… Azula!" then handed the phone to the princess.
"Hello?"
"Yeah, how can I get there exactly?"
Azula smiled. She had an evil plan up her mind. "Tell you what, why not let Lee pick you up?"
Song blinked. "O-okay… I mean if he wants to…"
"Oh trust me, he'll be… glad to do so." She smirked
Song gave up. "Okay… um I live in…" she gave Azula the coordinates.
"Expect him there by 8."
"Okay, thanks, bye."
Then they hung up.
"Azula, who is Song actually?"
Azula smiled. "An old acquaint of Zuzu. Now Ty Lee please fetch my brother."
"Okay…" then she cartwheeled out of the room to look for the prince -slash- birthday boy.
"Oh Prince Zuko!" she called as she went upstairs.
She passed Mai, who was surprisingly not with the said prince.
"Ty Lee, why are you looking for Zuko?"
"Hi Mai. Azula told me to fetch him."
Mai sighed and pointed to Zuko's dark red door. "I tried to open it. I guess he just wants to be alone."
Ty lee smiled. "Thanks Mai." Then she went downstairs again.
Mai sighed and went back to the guest room. "My life is so boring…"
Ty Lee passed the living room, where Azula was sitting.
"Ty lee? I thought I told you to--"
"I'm on it, Azula!" she said going past the door. Azula sighed. "#1!" she called out.
A girl in a frilly black and white dress came out. "yes Azula?" she said smiling.
"Start making food for the party." She commanded.
Maid #1 ( a.k.a bluesskiesahead ) shrugged and magically produced a notebook from her hand. "What would you like, oh sadistic princess?"
Azula raised her brow sharply. "Kindly repeat what you said"
Maid #1 smiled sheepishly and gulped. "What would you like, oh great and powerful princess?"
Azula smiled but her expression was still sharp. She let it drop. "Actually, I think I'm going to let Zuzu pick his food." She said checking her fingernails.
Maid #1 bowed and hid the notebook. "I'll ask him right away…"
"No, stay here. I have other plans for you."
Maid #1 gulped.
- - - - - - - -
"Oh Prince Zuko!" called Ty Lee. She was in the front yard and wanted to surprise the prince.
Zuko didn't respond. The lights in his room were closed, but Ty Lee could hear the music.
She smirked and jumped to the tree, which Azula conveniently planted next to Zuko's window. And she thought Azula did it for nature.
She knocked on the window, no response. It was conveniently unlocked as well. Ty Lee's suspicion raised.
"Um, Zuko? Azula's looking for you…" She went inside. The prince wasn't there. Her eyes widened. "Ooohhh… Azula's gonna be mad…"
She went out of the room via the door. Maid#930 (aka R.G930) was passing by.
"Um, Ms. Ty Lee? What are you doing in Prince Zuko's room?" she said glancing at the dark room.
Ty lee smiled. "You really wanna know?"
#930 gulped. "No thank you…" she said hiding her blush and continuing to sweep the floor.
Ty Lee ran downstairs, where Azula was. "They aren't here yet, are they?" she pouted to the princess.
Azula shook her head. "Where's Zuzu?"
Ty Lee gulped. "Yeah about that, Azula…"
I want fabulous,
That is my simple request,
All things fabulous,
Bigger and better and best,
I need something inspiring to help me get along,
I need a little fabulous is that so wrong?
"Hello?" asked Azula on the phone.
"Um, Azula?" It was Sokka's voice.
"Yeah, what do you want peasant?"
"Um, you don't mind having a new door on the west wing, do you?"
Azula's eyes widened. "What do you mean by that?" she glared.
Ty lee guessed who it was. "Is that Sokkie-poo?"
Azula didn't respond. "MAID#2!" she called. (aka wildimagination)
Another person in the same outfit came.
"Yes, oh demented princess?" Maid#2 smiled.
Azula narrowed her eyes. "Ty lee, we should rethink this whole maid thing, why not just burn them to a crisp and hire new ones." She smirked.
Maid#2's eyes widened. "Um, what's you're command, oh all powerful princess?" sheepishly.
Azula let it drop once more. "Kindly see the guests. They are in the west wing."
Maid#2 bowed her head. "Right away Ma'am…" then she went.
Azula turned to Ty lee again. "Where's Mai?" she asked.
"In the guest room." She smiled.
"I see. Get ready for the party, Ty lee. And let Mai do that as well." Azula said in her cool yet controlling voice.
"Okidoki!" she said then went upstairs.
"Oh Ty Lee?" she interrupted.
Ty Lee slowly looked back. "yeah, Azula?"
"Where's –-"
"SOKKIE-POO!" screamed Ty Lee as she saw the guests enter the room. She jumped down and landed 2 inches infront of him.
Azula sighed. Sokka gulped. Suki glared. Toph kept silent. (shocking, isn't it?) Aang and Katara sweat dropped.
Sokka rubbed the back of his head. "Hey there…"
Suki cut between. "Hello, Ty lee. I'm Suki. He's my boyfriend, in other words, hands off." She said perkily.
Ty lee pouted. "For now." She whispered in her ear and ran to the stairs.
"I'll call Mai…" she said then finally going upstairs. "I'll be back, cutie!"
Suki frowned. "Take your time!" she smirked.
Azula stood up. "Well, here we are." She went near Katara. "Man, Katara you look bloated… are you pregnant or something?" she smirked.
Sokka nearly fainted. Katara blushed. "No Azula… My, you're skinny. Did Zuko eat all the food again?" she smirked back.
Azula fixed her hair. "Thanks, I'll take that as a compliment." She said putting her hands on her hips. Katara did the same.
Toph cleared her throat. 'Okay, so we're here. Where's the party?"
Azula turned her gaze to the little earth bender. "Well, we couldn't start the party without the birthday boy, now can we?"
Sokka looked up. "I'm okay with that…" then lied back down.
Aang looked around. "Where's Zuko?"
Azula shrugged. "Wish I knew myself. Maybe he escaped." She smirked. "And I needed him to pick up a guest…"
Sokka sat up. "I'll do it!"
Katara, Aang, Toph and Suki's eyes twitched. They screamed… "NO!"
Sokka pouted. Azula sighed. "No thanks. I want my guests to come here safely… not mentally scarred."
They snickered. "Too late prissy." Toph interrupted.
Mai went down. "Azula, your brother isn't here!" she said, still in a slightly bored tone.
They all looked at her, in shock. Nobody spoke.
TO BE CONTINUED
Man, this was way longer than I expected… it was supposed to be about the party only, but it kept getting more interesting to write. Hope you feel the same. The next chapter, I promise, the party begins.
So, where is Zuko? Guess and you might have a special appearance.
Please review!
I hope you enjoyed this!
Thanks!
