The Tea Room

Zuko and I continued to fallow the waitress down the hall, but with blushes on our cheeks and shifty glances to each other.

"Here" the waitress said and opened a dark oak door to our left. "Aunt Wu is waiting for you in here."

Zuko and I stepped through the open door and looked around. The walls were high and had silks and other fabrics hanging from them. There were no windows, the only light that penetrated the room were the many candles sitting on the floor. Next to them was a plump woman in a yellow robe like dress; she sat on the floor with her legs crossed and her hands folded. "I'll leave you to it then," the waitress said closing the door behind her.

I'm glad to see you made it here Prince Zuko, and I'm thrilled you found Natasha." The old woman said.

"How do you know my name?" I asked.

"I know a great many things about you, dear." Aunt Wu said. "But for now, please sit."

Hesitantly, Zuko and I sat down on the floor across from the old fortuneteller.

"The reason I sent you here Prince," Aunt Wu continued. "Is dire." Aunt Wu closed her eyes. "I could not see another way… Had I let you stay in your world to live your life the way you were living it, you would have perished." The fortuneteller opened her eyes again and looked at us, "and you, you are selfish and dramatic!" she pointed a finger at me, "I understand that neither of your life's have been easy." She straitened her back. "That's why I am here to help."

"How can you help?" I asked. My heart stung a little from the "selfish and dramatic" comment.

Aunt Wu held up a hand. "My dear, I am here to bring you two together. Yes." She giggled. "Fortunetellers can be good matchmakers too." Her smile became more stern. "Neither of you can live your life alone."

"What do you mean?" Zuko asked.

"Alone, you will rage into one of your fathers battles because you have nothing but your honor to protect, Prince Zuko, and die under the Avatar's full powers… And you Natasha, alone you will find that California was only safe when your father was there to protect you, and that there is no love nor life to be continued or found there.

"You will drown yourself in your depression and fall in your own blood. Suicide is not a choose you wish to make, but it will be the only one you feel you will have."

I looked to Zuko, tears threatened to escape my eyes again as I looked up at his face.

Zuko looked to me as well with a worried frown upon his face. "So what do we do?" he asked turning back to Aunt Wu.

"You are needed to continue the Fire Nation blood line, and to end the war. You must go back home-"

"But you just said-" Zuko interrupted.

"With Natasha." Aunt Wu Finished

My eyes bulged. Go to the Fire Nation? Go live with Zuko? That was obscured "what about my mom? I can't just leave!" I said.

"If you want to survive, then you have to." Aunt Wu said. "And soon."

"How soon?" Zuko Asked.

"Within the Hour" Aunt Wu said.

"WITHIN THE HOUR!" I repeated. "What about my things, my belongings?" my mind was racing inside my head I was yelling, "I don't believe this… this isn't happening, this is just some weird conspiracy! Aston Kootchar is going to pop out and be like 'you've been punked!' no way no how, you guys are crazy!"

"Forget about them, you wont need them where you're going, and they'll only end up slowing you down…. Besides, isn't Zuko's life more important?" Aunt Wu asked.

"Yes… I mean… I guess so…It's just this is all happening really quickly! I mean, what am I supposed to tell my mother? HOW am I supposed to tell my mother?" I rambled on.

"Natasha!" Zuko said turning to look at me. "It's ok." He put his hand on my shoulder reassuringly and I felt my troubles disappear. "It's all going to be fine." And some how miraculously, I believed him.

"Just tell me when you two are ready and I'll start the spell." Aunt Wu said looking at the two of us with a sad smile.

I sighed, "I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be."

"Don't worry about your mother." Aunt Wu said. "I'll visit her and explain everything later on."

"Thank you." I said and then smiled up at Zuko. "You think you're ready?" I asked him piercing my lips together.

Zuko nodded and put his hand on top of mine. "Ready." He said.

"Then we might as well get started." Aunt Wu said and from behind her she pulled out a teapot as well as two small mettle teacups. Gracefully, she poured out the contents of the pot into the cups. She set them on the ground and wafted the steam with her hands, muttering words I didn't understand under her breath. Suddenly, the brown Tea in the cups turned to Apple Green. Aunt Wu then handed the two cups to the two of us. Gingerly, Zuko and I took the cups, the aroma of the liquid inside smelled like the jasmines we would grow in the back yard when daddy was still alive, and back Jello that had been sitting in the fridge for just far too long.

"Now," said Aunt Wu, "You must down it quickly, and at the same time, else the spell wont work." She smiled. " And I suggest you hold hands tightly so that you're not separated from each other."

I smiled and nodded at Aunt Wu and then looked to Zuko who grasped my hand tightly.

"Thank you for everything, Aunt Wu." I said.

"Anytime, dear." She said smiling.

"Bottoms up on three?" I asked Zuko.

"You got it." He said, holding up his teacup.

"Cheers!" I said winking. "One… Two… Three." I lifted my cup to my lips and wished the world I once knew so well, good-bye.
