Chapter Ten: Distractions and Arguments
Disclaimer: I don't own Avatar. If I did, well, that would be awesome. But I don't. I do own Yoshiro and General Xokku
Zuko looked around the ship, looking for Yoshiro.
After I do this, I'll be free from this stupid ship, and I'll be able to capture the Avatar once again...
He turned to his left to hear noises.
"Yoshiro? Are you in there?" Zuko knocked hardly on the door.
He heard Yoshiro mumbling,
"Great, now Zuko wants to…" Yoshiro opened the door.
"What do YOU want?" Yoshiro said, grumpily.
What happened to the freaky, happy person? Zuko thought.
"Your father sent me to tell you something," Zuko said.
Yoshiro rolled her eyes.
Can't Zuko tell I'm in a bad mood? What does my father want that is so important, he HAD to send Zuko to tell me!
"What does he want?" She asked, still standing by the door.
"The truth. About you," Zuko said.
"Come in," Yoshiro acted calm, which was strange for her.
Yoshiro sat on her bed while Zuko just sat on a chair.
"So…what does my father want to tell me?" Yoshiro said, her legs dangling from her bed.
"Can you stop that? It's distracting me!" Zuko demanded.
"What?" Yoshiro said.
"You're dangling your legs off your bed! It's making me forget what I was about to say!" Zuko rubbed his temples.
"Then why'd you notice?" Yoshiro gave him a told-you- look.
"Nevermind that."
Silence.
"What was it?" Yoshiro asked.
Zuko took in a deep breath.
"You know you're an earthbender and firebender, right?" Zuko started off.
"Whoa, wait a minute. How do you know this!" Yoshiro said, startled.
"Your father told me."
"Oh."
"You're not going to freak out? Go crazy? Make up a lie?" Zuko seemed dumbfounded.
"No. Don't need to."
This girl is weird.
"Well, you know where you got them from?"
"No. Not really."
"Your parents. Your real parents."
Yoshiro seemed astounded. She had been told that she was adopted.
"Your real mother was an earthbender-," Zuko was cut off by Yoshiro.
"He lied to me!" Yoshiro felt flames heat up in the inside of her hands.
"CAN YOU AT LEAST LET ME FINISH!" Zuko yelled at Yoshiro.
She winced. For a minute, there was an awkward silence.
"You shouldn't yell at a girl, Zuko," Yoshiro said.
"You-I-agh…" Zuko couldn't take it anymore.
"Sorry," Yoshiro stuck out her lower lip.
"……..can I continue before I go crazy?" Zuko said, angrily.
"Be my guest. Wait…you already are," Yoshiro said, sheepishly.
Zuko sighed.
This is going to take forever…
"So my real father is in the Fire Nation army?" Yoshiro asked.
So far Zuko only explained up to the point where Kaiko, her real father and Renaywa, her real mother, were married and had her. He hadn't got that far. Due to Yoshiro's frequent interuptions.
"WAS!"
"Was? Did he die?" Yoshiro asked him, calmly.
"…General Xokku…he killed your parents…because my father-," Zuko was, again, interrupted by Yoshiro.
"Your father IS Fire Lord Ozai?"
Zuko slapped himself on the head.
"You finally realized that?"
Yoshiro nodded.
"You know, I don't get this. Why are you searching for the Avatar?" Yoshiro asked Zuko.
Zuko glared.
"What?"
"Can we just continue?"
"Yes."
"General Xokku killed your parents because my father wanted your real father back in the Fire Nation Army, which I don't get why, because why did he leave-," Zuko stopped. Yoshiro was giving him something he thought she would never do. A death glare.
"Never talk about my real father-no-ANYONE EVER LIKE THAT AGAIN!" Yoshiro screamed. Had it been louder, Zuko would have been blown away.
Zuko was stunned.
"I don't know what your problem is, Zuko! You are always had a bad mood, and whenever I am nice to you, you still act like a jerk! It's annoying the heck out of me!" Yoshiro looked like she was going to kill someone.
Deep breath. Deep breath. What just happened there? Did I really yell? Oh god. I think I freaked Zuko out. Now he won't tell me of my real parents.
There was an awkward silence.
"…I'm sorry…I should have gotten mad…continue, please," Yoshiro sighed.
Silence.
"I freaked you out, didn't I?" Yoshiro said, sadly.
"Yes. You did," Zuko regained his form.
"Please continue," Yoshiro said.
"Your real father was in the Fire Nation army, and when he wanted to quit so he could marry your real mother, my father refused. So he ran away from the army…"
"That's so romantic. They eloped!" Yoshiro said to herself.
"Uh, whatever."
"Heh, sorry about that," Yoshiro said.
S.E.: I have a question. Should I make it a romance story? I don't know...I'm kinda bad when it comes to that stuff
