The third day with azula was child abuse.
Dear daughter
Today you will kept in this room and once I return you show how much strength is even a day without sun light. I hope to see excellency as I expect from you.
Love your mother.
Zuri just question if the woman had cell in her that could love anyone but herself.
She was completely sealed and no ray of sun light. Zuri kept on concentrating on the note azula had left her trying to set it on fire with out touching it yet it didn't work after hours it only left the paper charred at one of its corner. When she couldn't feel any of the suns radiation even if sealed a fire bender could tell when the sun over them, zuri stared at the door waiting for it open, When it did zuri launched a fire ball the size of own Head, pushing the poor henchman into a wall.
Azula for once in her life was slightly impressed. "Hmm most would only be able show a spark, after being locked in the dark room." Zuri looked at her mother with burning eyes of hatred. "Well as a reward I have brought you something from that stand you visited so much." Zuri looked at azula surprised because that was actually nice. Zuri looked surprised before taking the box that durav used for leftovers, how did she know?
Zuri looked at her mother and saw azula walking away but she had to ask. "W-wait." Azula looked at her with the same strict look azula showed to everyone. "Would you like to have some?" Azula sighed guessing that zuri thought that she had poisoned the food. "Come on it's the best grilled meat in republic city." azula raised a brow about to blow her off but she would humor her this once.
"Fine, but this won't be requiring." Zuri looked confused at the last word said. "I won't do this again." Zuri eyes widen now understanding. "We better head to the dinning room." She followed.
Zuri staring at azula. "Why do you have to talk like that? I guese you were raised royally but Izumi doesn't talk like that nor does uncle." Azula looked Zuri for a berief moment.
azula looked to see if any of her servants were behind her and once she was sure she spoke. "To be completely honest, I just want to make sure that my servants know that they are beneath me." Zuri nodded she really didn't like the agni kai triad for multiple reasons and she decided to speak her mind.
"I don't like them, They don't know how to control their bending and hurt so many people." Azula smiled to her description of her lackeys.
She had a thought a way to use her daughters empathy to her advantage. "That happens when fire benders are pushed out by none benders." Zuri looked a bit confused she never heard non benders pushing people out.
Zuri looked at azula questioning while had seen that she was caught in her web.
Zuko had been worried since the court, the rest of the royal Family zuko had been reading any letters from republic City most were from the representent of the fire Nation just asking for a raise or some other Kind of favor.
Guilt was the worst part of this all he had a duty and he failed he had made sure aang would Keep him infromed of anything he or katara had heard. Izumi had been effected the worst by this since zuri was clostest she had to a sister. (who had a of Kleptomania.)
Ursa had calmed her down a bit and izumi had told mai whos shoulder she cried on.
His uncle was the most calm about the situtation and also the saddened by it even if he didn't Show it mostly mentions he had lost the third best tea maker in the family.
Ursa had went to azu- zuris room sighing how empty it felt saddening to see it like this agian. "Mother." Ursa didn't look to her son but still answered.
"I remembere the times azula was just a child before your father started influencing her. azula would always ask me to komm her hair and so did zuri." she said tearing up turning around crying into zukos chest.
Zuri had pained look on her face when she learned that most People didn't like to higher Benders because they were either afraid or hated them. She didn't believe it completely since she knew non Benders who didn't care she was a bender and give a Bison dung about it so she took azulas words with a hint of salt and remembered what her uncle told her. "Mother always lied." She whispered for a Brief Moment before finishing the grilled turtle duck.
Azula wiped her month. "Well that wasn't disapointing, mediocer but not bad." zuri looked at azula who returned the look.
Zuri spoke "How was grampa like?" She had heard of her Grand father, the so called phoenix king, but None of her Family would speak about him and her Cousin didn't know a Thing about the man. By mention of him azulas eyes widen suprising zuri having never seen he Show this expression of suprised.
Azula remebered her father so weak and useless to be beaten by a Boy his Junior and who barely knew fire bending. "You Grandfather was pathetic, Who was defeated by the Avatar and lost his bending." She said pooring herself a Cup of tea. "He was also cruel and didn't care for aynone but himself." She finished drinking her tea.
Zuri nodded now she understood why no one spoke of him. "And about my dad?" Zuri asked just wanting to know who her father might be.
Aula finished her tea. "I Just used him to sate my curiosity." Zuri looked confused 'what does that mean?' She yelled mentally as azula continued "Your father was a noble fire bender royal to my father and one night he was intoxicated while celebrating the distruction of the earth Nation embassy, he asked if I would follow him to his Chambers and well after I learned that my father was turned into a pathetic mess, I decided to leave the fire Nation and Focus on what my brother was doing here." Zuri nodded and decided not to ask for Name or anything as she just thought her father wouldn't care anyway.
Zuri still wanted ask one more Thing. "How do you lighting bend?"
Azula smiled "I will teach you tomorrow." Azula said Content that her daughter was seeking power.
The next morning zuri stood at a gym. Azula looked at her daughter as she started generating lighting she with amazment. "To lighting bending the Center Piece is concetrationg collecting energy, sperating them and releasing it at your target it." She finished as she striked one of the traing dolls. "The easiest method one Hand is negative while the other is positive." she finished connecting index fingers touching them, as she pulled them aparts the lighting Coursing between her fingers.
Zuri Tried the same but to her there were a few sparks before an Explosion happend. "How does that work?!" Zuri yelled Standing up. "Ok, I will get this right, I just Need to relax." placing far more concentration she able create a current. "I'm doing it." She said amazed as she look at azula who had a proud grin on her. "How do you?" with simple wrong move zuri released the lighting and eletrocuting azula.
Zuri froze as her mother stood up with grim look on her and the next thing she saw was pure blue fire.
