It's been about two weeks since you, Zuko and Iroh moved into your new apartment, you technically have your own room but you and zuko sleep together, usually in his bed. Yes you finally have an actual bed again!
Iroh's teashop has been very successful. Iroh went with your suggestion and named it the Shaded Jade.
A few days ago you hung out with Smellerbee. She seemed upset about something but you decided not to pry. She would tell you if she wanted to.
You woke up and stretched a little
"Morning beautiful" Zuko said in a sleepy voice.
"Morning sleepy" you yawned.
"This again? I compliment you and all I am is sleepy," Zuko asked in a clearly fake sounding hurt voice.
"You're not just sleepy" you rolled over so you were resting on his chest, "you're my wonderful prince" you said with a sweet smile.
Zuko shifted so that he could kiss your lips softly.
"Prince Zuko, Kana, hurry we need to get to the tea shop" Iroh called from behind the closed-door.
You cuddled into Zuko's chest. "I don't wanna move it's comfy here" you mumbled. Zuko laughed and smiled at you.
"Are we going to go through this every morning?" Iroh asked.
"I can't help it, I'm so spoiled this bed is just too comfy" you called, then whispered to Zuko, "and I'd rather lay here with you all day"
Zuko kissed your forehead. "I'd enjoy that," he said with a sly smile.
"I swear I'll force both of you to sleep in your own rooms!" Iroh threatened as he walked away.
After a few more minutes of you enjoying your time with Zuko, you finally decided to bathe and get ready for the day. You dressed in a white strapless top that ended at the bottom of your rib cage, and a green skirt with an abstract pattern on it.
Working at the Shaded Jade was fairly boring, you enjoyed when it was busy so that you actually have something to do. At one point Smellerbee and Longshot came in for some tea, you wondered where Jet was, they were usually all together. You were worried that the guards still have him locked up.
A royal messenger walked in and before you could offer a table for him, he walked right over to Iroh. You and Zuko looked on as Iroh thanked the messenger he walked over to you and Zuko.
"What was that about?" you asked curiously.
Iroh smiled from ear to ear "We have been invited to the royal court to serve tea to the Earth King" Iroh said with childish excitement.
"That's great uncle!" Zuko said enthusiastically
After work, Iroh sent you and Zuko out to buy clothes to wear when you go to the palace. Shopping didn't take very long so you and Zuko walked around Ba-Sing-Se in search of your brothers. You were starting to become hopeless. You've found no sign of them.
Zuko hugged you "we'll find them" he said as he kissed your forehead, "I promise."
A week later it was finally the day you were going to the Earth Kingdom palace. You wore a white corset style top with ruffles at the bottom and a green skirt that was short in the front and long in the back; it flowed around your legs majestically.
As you walked into the palace Iroh whispered "I always thought I'd be here conquering, I never thought I would be here to serve tea to the Earth King" he chuckled.
Upon entering the throne room something seemed off. You kept your guard up and whispered to Zuko "I have a bad feeling about this" Zuko nodded and scanned the room.
As you neared the Earth King all three of you kneeled offering the tea. You heard clapping so you glanced up, you gasped making Zuko and Iroh look up as well. You quickly got into a firebending stance.
"Azula!" Zuko yelled angrily.
"Well hello Zuzu, I see Uncle's tea loving ways have finally rubbed off on you" she said and paused. "What? Its funny you can laugh" she added. She really needs some social skills.
"Where's the Earth King" you snapped.
"He's in a dungeon somewhere," She said as she snapped her fingers. Dai Li agents restrained you, Zuko and Iroh. Zuko struggled against their grip, but you noticed that Iroh seemed calm. What's that wize old man thinking?
"The Dai Li, don't you just love them, even though they're Earthbenders they have a killer instinct that's just so firebender" Azula said. It bothered you that Azula lumped all firebenders together like that as far as you could tell the only cruel firebenders were her and the fire lord.
"Azula let us go" Zuko ordered. Another Dai Li agent hit him. You struggled to break free.
"I don't think so Zuzu, you're a failure and you deserve to be locked away with our tea loving uncle and your little whore" Azula stated.
"You cow! I am not a whore!" you yelled at her. One of the Dai Li hit you hard in the stomach.
"Kana!" Zuko yelled helplessly.
"Azula did I ever tell you why I'm called the dragon of the west?" Iroh asked
"I'm not in the mood for one of your long boring anecdote" Azula replied.
"Its more of a demonstration" Iroh said and with that he used his breath of fire, allowing the three of you to escape down a hallway. You came to a dead end. Iroh jumped to the ground, using a bush to break his fall. You and zuko stayed behind.
"Come on we can get away!" Iroh called.
"No I need to face Azula" Zuko said.
"I need to kill her, I am not a whore," you mumbled angrily.
You and zuko ran back to go fight Azula but their was too many Dai Li agents, their sheer numbers proved too much for you and Zuko to handle. The last thing you remember was seeing Zuko being captured. Then you blacked out.
