"What is it?" Azula snapped at her impatiently, her eyebrows narrowed in suspicion at her friend. She had no idea why she was acting like this, as if she knew that man or something. But then it seemed as if now she understood. As she went back to her previous thought of her friend '…as if she knew that man.', but of course…she knew him, didn't she? At least that's how Azula was seeing it now. She shifted her gaze over to the man before looking back at Kiki, not letting her emotions show as she had her hands behind her back.

"It's nothing." Kiki whispered, glancing away but then she nearly heard her breathing tremble a moment later

"Do you know him?" She was asked then by an almost taunting voice, her gaze moved back over to Azula then

She seemed to stare for a moment before looking over at the man, who was just staring back at her then she looked back at Azula "No. I don't."

"Good." Azula nodded, walking over to the man then, as the guards then moved out of her way rather quickly "Then you won't care if I let father know about him now, right?"

Kiki would have had a horrified look on her face if she was showing her emotions, which she wasn't just like Azula. She quirked an eyebrow, glancing around before stepping forward

"But that would be a waste, wouldn't it? Perhaps he knows something."

Azula stared at her for a moment before looking over at this man "What is your name?" She asked him then

He didn't even look at her and that made her narrow her eyebrows suddenly, glaring at him now "I will not repeat myself. Now answer me." He then slowly looked over at her, glaring back as well, his hair nearly hiding his eyes but they held annoyance and frustration as it clearly showed

"I do not answer to someone like you." Then he looked away, turning so his back was towards her now and no longer his face, he glared at nothing really

Azula seemed to let loose of her emotions "How dare you turn your back on me?! I'm the Princess of the fire nation, now answer me."

"Fine." He muttered softly, almost a whisper then he seemed to stand up; the guards looked around as if not knowing what to do. Azula probably thought of them to be complete fools, weren't they supposed to be doing their jobs "My name is…"

Kiki seem to run over, getting in front of the man "Azula, you cannot hurt him. He…" But then she felt cold metal touching her neck, yet also the feeling of warmth, this man had grabbed her and now he was using her to leave this place unharmed, how dare he?! The guards moved forward, but Azula held up one hand to stop them, not saying one word for a few moments, just staring as if trying to fully understand now. She took in a deep breath, before simply quirking an eyebrow, sighing

"You're going to take her so you can leave this place, aren't you?"

The man stared at her with a blank expression then, looking around for a moment before looking back at her, not answering though but she just flipped her hair back with one hand, then folded her arms across her chest as if bored now

"Alright, I'm sure you'll succeed. She is a friend of the family, nonetheless soon to be a fire nation noble-woman. You've clearly out-smarted all of us." Was she mocking him?

Kiki felt herself being dragged over to an open door-way, dragging her out-side and over where Yuki was, she started to run to go help Kiki even as Zason tried to stop her but she was already out-side, heading after them quickly. And Azula just narrowed her eyebrows for a moment before shrugging, starting to walk out of view "Oh well. Happy birthday to me." She smiled then

Over where Kiki was, she started to get more than annoyed now, slipping out of the guy's grip but then as Yuki seemed to bump into her from behind, all three of them started to roll down a hill, and headed down towards then they landed on flat-ground, Yuki on top of her friend and that poor guy had them on top of his back as he groaned, realizing that probably dirt was in his hair now but then he shoved both of them off of him as he got up to his feet quickly, dusting off his pants then looked at the metal around his hands, looking around but then Kiki grabbed onto them

"Hey, you--…" But then he got quiet as he saw her melting the metal, then it seemed to just disappear, and he could move about again. He looked up at her, a slight grin on his lips but then he narrowed his eyebrows, taking a few steps backwards then bumped into a giggling Yuki, yelping he moved over so he was only so far from both of them.

"Sorry." Yuki told him, blushing slightly

Kiki rolled her eyes in boredom, looking away as she folded her arms across her chest "You're gonna leave now, aren't you?"

He stared at her for a few moments "Where do I know you from?"

Yuki looked from him to Kiki then in total confusion, then quickly looked back at him

"No where." Kiki told him, narrowing her eyebrows again as if annoyed. She seemed to be that way a lot lately, but she had reason to be.

"You're lying, why are you doing that? I didn't do anything to you." He sounded as if insulted by the way she was acting towards him

She seemed to get wide-eyed as he looked back at him, this time she looked as if she was insulted "Didn't do anything? You call this not doing anything?!" She gestured to where they were now

He rubbed the back of his head with a slight awkward expression of slight embarrassment "Sorry 'bout that." Then he shook his head as if in total awe that he just said that "Wait! No! I'm not sorry; didn't you see where I was?! I had to get out of there, I mean—didn't you see that crazy chick that was going to 'introduce' me to fire lord Ozai?!" He ranted about, failing his arms about in slight exaggeration

They just stared at him like he was an idiot then Kiki walked over to him, smacking him on the back of the head "Get a hold of yourself." Then she walked back over to beside Yuki, a slight smile set on her lips now

"Who is he, Kiki?" Yuki asked then, looking back over at him and before he could answer, Kiki interrupted

"His name is Haku, he's an earth-bender." She then sighed, looking at her nails "I chipped a nail." She muttered softly then looked up at Haku "Are you happy now?" She then looked away again

"Wait…You're…" Then he frowned "No, never mind. I need to go now, you two can go back or whatever. I don't care."

Yuki stared at him wide eyed, looking back at Kiki then "Does he really not care?"

"He's not important. We should get back before Azula sends guards down here." Kiki told her, starting to turn around and walk away, her friend simply looked back at Haku for a moment then back at her

"No."

Kiki stopped walking then, turning around then to look at Yuki "What?"

"I'm staying. He clearly needs our help, Kiki. We have to help him, we can't just do nothing."

She stared at Yuki in total awe, as if shocked by what she had just said but then sighed "Why can't we just give him some fruit and wish him the best of luck?" She asked

Yuki stared at her horrified then frowned "We have to help him, Kiki."

She sighed then "Fine. But only for a little while then he's on his own again."

Haku stared at both of them wide eyed "Don't I have a say in this?'

"No!" Yuki and Kiki snapped at him then looked back at each other

It was starting to get oddly cold again, and they looked back at Haku then, walking over and practically started to shove him so he'd turn around and start walking again. Kiki kept glancing over at him, wondering if he did actually remember her or not then shook her head. No. He wouldn't. At least that's what she thought, frowning a bit again but then sighed, smiling as Yuki giggled, ranting about fruits and about turtle-ducks. It was going to be a long night though, wasn't it? Kiki sighed again, looking away, wondering if perhaps she still should have gone back but this felt nice, not being bored and around coldness. Yeah. This was nice and she was actually enjoying it.
