Chapter 2.
By: Lance Vance, the utter advance of hotness trance.
What! How could you lose their coordinates!. Fire burned up the Fire prince's arm, slowly tickling up to his chest in a red flame.
Prince Zuko was very mad at his Ship's Captain, and the Captain sure showed it. Cool beads of sweat trickled down the Captain's face. "S..si..sir...I apologize for this..inconvenience, it won't happen again."
Zuko, even more angered than before, slammed his fist into the ship's steel wall. "Inconvienience! How dare you say that! And your DAMNED right it won't happen again! Next time I will not be so sympathetic with YOU! Now Leave! GET OUT!" Zuko roared,his flames fully bursting throughout his body.
The captain with no more than a glance backwards at the fiery prince, ran out of the room, nearly scared to death.
Zuko, calming down, felt the flames disappear as his mind became clear again. "Guards!" he called out "Fetch me my uncle, and be quick about it!" The two guards bowed deeply and left to fufill their masters wishes.
Impatiently waiting, Zuko was flying balls of fire at the ship's steel walls, basically harmless, but it killed time. As he was conjuring his third fire ball, the two guards walked in with his uncle.
"Uncle, there you are, I needed to speak with you." Zuko walked up to his short, stubby uncle, a retired veteran of the Fire Nation's leading Generals. Smiling, Iroh slapped Zuko on his back. "Always happy to help out a happy nephew" he pointed out sarcastically.
"Come, sit, I need to talk to you" Zuko said, signaling Iroh to sit down on the round table, where Zuko and the other leading Generals made war plans, and such. Sitting down, Iroh looked up at his nephew, knowing what this conversation was going to be about.
"We lost the coordinates to the Avatar today. We last seen him at Oyasha, but they left too quickly on their flying bison, for our Scouts to coordinate. I'm thinking about sending scouts to Oyasha, in case they decide to go back, and to Shogun, the next capital, if they wish to go forward. What do you think Uncle?"
Chuckling, Iroh looked at the prince. "You are so fire-headed that you are forgetting oh such an easy answer to such a complicated riddle, when it's right in front of you". Iroh smiled gleefully at the prince.
"And what is that?" inquired the Prince, staring down at his uncle.
"Tell me, what IS an Avatar?" Iroh asked. Zuko began to say "A sniveling, small, arrogant.." before his Uncle stopped him. He asked his question again, his tone demmanding a serious answer. "The master of the four elements of Water, Air, Earth, and Fire." Zuko said, sighing.
"Aha, and that is where you answer your own question, to what you are going to do next." Iroh said bleakly. "Now i'm going to go drink some tea and play chess with the other retired veteran generals." Iroh gleefully opened the door, turned and smiled back, and left Zuko's room.
"I answered my own question? How so?" the prince thought to himself. He sat down, and thought it over. The frown on his face, quickly changed into a smile. "Yes...that's it..." Zuko mumbled. Grinning, he finally realized what his Uncle had said. "It's all a chess game...
and a puzzle...And i'm going to win, either way..." Zuko, smiling to himself, a cunningly evil smile, stood up. "And so the games begin..." Zuko said quitely, as he stalked off to his ship's Captain, to give him new coordinates, and change the plan.
5 minutes later.
"Yes my prince, to Shogun, it is."

Answers---
1. Aang hasn't learned fire bending, as Uncle Iroh pointed out. And no fire-bender would teach him, under pain of death, as Zuko well knows. So, aang will never learn fire bending...without...a..bit...help?...teehee
2.It's a chess game. Zuko simply has to lure Aang to his side, to destroy him. Zuko plans to lure Aang into his side of the board. Kinda like garden of eve wit adam and eve, and teh snake. Anyways, the chess pieces are about to be moving.
Look forward to chapter 3. Because it will be damned good. Are you guys getting the riddle/answers now?
Review please. Luv you all, my faithful readers. Thanks, yet again.
