#5 The Wardrobe
Disclaimer I don't own Avatar: The last aribender But I own every thing else so don't trip!
Me: Guys this is going to be the shortest chapter!
Zuko:Yes!
Me:Hey!
Soon as all This was happening...Uncle Iroh Walked in on them well more of Malaya hugging Zuko. "Zuko, we may need to stop at the next harbor for more te-"He drops the piece of paper he was holding for the itinerary of all the supplies.
"Ah-a! It seems like you two are getting along um..Well!" His uncle Laughs to himself.
"Ahh! Hey um" Zuko looks o so flustered (hes blushing!Oooo.)Then he pushes her off
She falls over on the bed" Hey Zuko wats the big idea?" She looks up and sees, Iroh. "O hehe-he.I gets it..." Starts to blush..Zuko whispers to her through his teeth "Shut-up I'll explain."
"You see dear uncle" Bites his lower lip. He always does this." Malaya was telling me were she had come from, and it was surprising. And well I'll tell you over" He grits his teeth as he says this "tea."
"O wonder full! Okay"Iroh forgets all about her, and pulls Zuko by the arm" Come on what kind of tea would you like?" As Zuko was getting dragged out the door, he mouthed" wait here." and she mouthed back to him "Thank you."
As soon as the door slammed behind Zuko Malaya was alone again. She smiles to her self cause she just hugged her favorite character and that he was able to listen to her problems. And helped her some-what..
Though her side was still injured, she felt much better, she looked down to her wound through her ripped clothes, and sighed. God she thought to her self I have such a weird lif- she stopped and remembered that her old life didn't matter anymore, this was
her new and only life, she was going to cry but had no more tears left...
...Mean-While...
On deck Zuko and His Uncle Iroh were um...Having a conversation..."Oh Zuko!" Idea you liked such pretty girls!" His Uncle Iroh sips his tea"Umm..This is quite good,Chia tea." Smiles contently. "You. arug! You don't get it! I" Poor, Frustrated Zuko says as he makes his hand into fists and stands up. The cup of tea close to him begins to bubble." You-see she's not from this world" He finally says.
"Really?" Puts down his tea,"Hmmm..How interesting. What do you mean Zuko?" He looks up truly interested. Zuko Looks down on him then sits back down and begins to tell him of the mindbenders tragic or not-so tragic story of her rebirth new life and mind-bending powers, also Zuko own opinion on what had happened that she had some how went through the walls of spirit world that divides the different realities or worlds from each other.
His Uncle listened to his story in amazement, "It seems Zuko, That this girl is a very special girl...So the Avatar is no longer the only spirit bridge. She was given an extraordinary gift and she has come to us. This is an Omen.."He looks up and dusts him self off" We are blessed that she has come to us, she may be able to find knowledge of the spirit world. And-" he is cut-off "And the Avatar." Zuko looks at him and his uncle replies w/ a nodd."You see Zuko I think nothing ever happens out of
coincidence, every thing happens because of a reason. She has come to us for a reason. We may need her later on" Once again Zuko finishes his uncles sentence" But right now she needs us." He gets up," I think it is best if you check on her now" His uncle looks at him then smiles a wired smile "But Zuko, behave your self" Zuko does his best to pretend not to hear. Once, Zuko is out of site, he stops looking back" My nephew is growing so fast" He has pure I'm so proud of him moment and his eyes get all watery and big there's those little stars there
to...(Lol.)
In the Zukos room, Malaya is lying in bed thinking about every thing she knew about This place from all the Avatar: The last air bender shows she's watched at other peoples houses because Alas she did not have cable (--).. She thought about it, about the every thing and just looking at the ceiling. Amazed that if this was true that there are so many alternate "Worlds" going on the same time as hers and she happened to land in her favorite Cartoon. She laughed to herself despite her circumstances. Then began to think about if maybe
they weren't the same as the show and that Zuko was the good guy and that Katara and her other fav. Characters were bad! She had no exact way of knowing she felt a shiver of in-security wash down her spine and she shuddered. Then remembered one way she could find out or sure, her mind-bending she had no REAL idea of what her powers were capable of as is any other bender only that she could read peoples mind and maybe sends thoughts to them if she could do this, she would have to find some one to teach her, then remembered that since she was
the first one none could teach her how to mind bend only other benders that could 'Guide' her. She thought of all the days she had spent after school doing chores in exchange for cheap Shaolin Kung fu classes what she had learned even though it wasn't the best it was the basics, her mind bending couldn't (or she thought at that moment) couldn't protect her from the physical blows she might encounter.
Her father taught her how to meditate (Authors note: I do understand the discipline of Martial Arts because as I said I based this on character on my self what I would've done in her place. Martial Arts is Mind AND body, Yes meditation is an art. That is soo hard to grasp but my dad even though he cant be w/ me right now he tells me when he visits how to. So don't think I'm just making this up to make my character cool or I would've made her taller and be the best at ,Martial Arts and rich and so on...I wanted some one I could relate to ! Maybe you can to().
But she couldn't quite grasp the concept nor have "time" to keep her peace w/ in her self that long because alas she is human and got distracted. Just like she got when Zuko walked into the room.
"Um..are you feeling ok, I explained what happened to My Uncle he understood" Though in his head he thought' In his own special way.' He continued" I told him every thing you told me." He looks her over and sees that her shirt is badly ripped and her clothes are just a hot mess.
"O thax you so much, for understanding and well every thing." She said and bowed her head. "The guard told me when he found you this was behind you." He lifts up her school bag in the air. Her eyes light up immediately, gets up quickly and takes her prized position." My school Bag!" Her school bag was a black messenger bag that her and her Friend
Crsayl had bought in Brooklyn and got Spray Painted together w/ there own name on it, she was just glade to see some thing that reminded her of home."Zuko! Thank you" She presses the bag against her heart." I really needed to see this, it's my only reminder of my home."Zuko looks at her" Why is there some thing valuable in it?" looks over her shoulder in
curiosity. "Ye-ah!"Sits on the bed and begins to take out the bloated bags contents out starting w/ Her 2 note books, fallowed by a bunch of colorful pens she stole from staples, A large family size 'Avenno' lotion, A mirror, a pack of gum, 2$,29 cents, Gym Clothes, A big ass 'Sharpie' Marker for tagging up the school w/ her AKA., Random papers, Consealer,
lip gloss, Hawaiian Orchid Spray she got at 'Victoria Secret' and finally a bunch of random pictures of her friends and family in a small sketch pad there is a bunch of other REAL JUNK but you'll find that out later. "God I knew women carry a lot of things w/ them butGulp I never really knew till I saw all YOUR Junk." The horrified Zuko looks down in amazement at her wondrous Junk." It's not junk! It's not even from here so u wouldn't kno hmph."Malaya sticks out
Her tongue. Zuko though is already touching and poking her stuff. He picks up her consealer and puts his finger on the top of the 'Maybellalline,Dream matte mouse medium-2 light biege skin tone' "Ahh what the" he looks at his finger, "What is this woman?" Looks at him like thisO.o"Um...Make-up what 'Women' put on there face to cover redness or to have a slight evener skin tone, its best used at picture gatherings" She piped up. Once again Zuko looked at her like this 0.o "WATS this?" He picks up a small plastic bag, "Woman are strange.."
"What?"
"I said Woman are strange."
"Yea, but I kno" She winks "That's how you like it!"
"What? Sure keep thinking that.." Rolls eyes.
She looks over his shoulder and sees he's looking at the bag w/ her
Extra clothes a.k.a. new gym clothes.
"Hey" grabs bag out of his hands." I need this, because I have to change mi clothes.!" She lifts up the contents of the bag.
A 'Dickes' plum-purple short-shorts and a plain black tank-top.
"These are mi clothes! I'm going to change, ight? " The girl who was happy to Finally find her black messenger book-bag.
Zuko just sits at the edge of the bed and dosnt move. And looks over at her "Well go change no ones stoping you" He almost smiles as he says this.
"Ok i will" Zuko then looks up at her surprised." Once you leave." He smiles then says "Ok fine." Shuts door as he leaves, and waits at the door.
Once he leaves she rolls her eyes. Men are the same every ware she says to her self, even here.
She gets dressed. And then once she finished she opened the door.
"Well?" She puts her hands on her hips and striked a pose. Zuko looks. "Yea. but if those shorts go any higher. You'll have to put on pants."
"Ah shut-up!" She says as she punches him gently on the side of his arm. "Hey don't touch me, that's the rules" Looks at her he smiles. "But Rules are made to be broken." She says as she strikes another pose and gets a few fire benders to turn their heads.
"You kno Zuko, I hope this new life might be fun...maybe, but still I'm a lil' you know not feeling secure" She says as they walk near the Deck of the boat. "Well of course that's understandable, you've been through a big trauma and well, that's how it is when u " Looks over the water" First leave home."
"O.." she looks at him well "U kno at least we got other...'." She looks at him and she puts her hand on his cheek. He looks down at her Smiles takes her hand off his face and holds it...
Malaya the writer- The whole bag thing well (looks down in shame) is umm what my bag is in real life I went through it while doing this,...Cept I don't have 2 dollars and 29 cents it sucks...
