Chapter Two- Bring it on!
Ayame was marching her sorry butt to the Earth Lord's office…no…she wasn't angry at the earth lord…it was the person next to her…she was stuck with the world's biggest jerk…she looked at him…
"I can't believe I'm stuck with the world's biggest jerk" she said to herself and looked at certain Prince with a scar on his face…
"Dear Lord…" she said to herself again "What did I do to deserve this? Why?"
"Hey…" he finally spoke and didn't look at Ayame "Why are you here?" he asked and Ayame was at a complete loss… why would he be asking that?
"Uh…Well… Earth Lord's been complaining lately and I came here to talk it out…"
"I see…" he looked kinda mad and uninterested
"I think he's still mad…he looks kinds crazy though…" she said to herself
"So what brings you here, Prince Zuko?" Ayame asked then it took him a while to reply…maybe he was looking for a good excuse aside from 'I'm look for the Avatar!'
"I'm…looking for something…"he said, still not looking at her
"Ah…I see…" Ayame pretended to be interested and thought to herself
"He must be crazy…" then Prince Zuko added to his sentence…
"Searching for the Avatar…" then Ayame almost froze in her tracks…
"Did he say Avatar?" Ayame reflected on this "He's crazier! The Avatar is dead!"
"Sounds appealing…" she nodded and pretended that she really was interested
"We're here…" Prince Zuko stopped and saw the earthen building, seeing it was office of the Earth Lord… when they approached it, an Earth Soldier was blocking their way
"Unauthorized persons are not allowed. The Earth Lord is sick…" he said and Ayame was fuming mad…
"What about the meeting arranged for the fire nation's cargo?" she asked intensely and the earth soldier was completely petrified of fear…
"H-he's s-s-sick! All meetings were moved!" the he was blocking them with his shield
"Please don't hurt me!" he was practically begging for mercy then Ayame just left and Prince Zuko followed her and caught her collar
"What's your problem?" he asked and Ayame looked back at him
"It's you! One; You crashed to my ship…Two; the earthlord is sick…Three; I'm having bad luck today because of you!" she then walked away but Zuko catch up after her
"That's it? Maybe you're the reason I'm at this predicament! You're a hindrance to my search for the Avatar! It's your entire fault!" he retorted
"If that's the way, why don't we settle this the proper way…" Ayame said
"Fine by me…unless you're chicken..." Prince Zuko commented
"No way…I, Princess Ayame…challenge you, Prince Zuko, to a fire duel…sunset, at the port..." Ayame said pointing to Prince Zuko
"I accept…" Prince Zuko concurred to her challenge
"I will meet you there…" Ayame said and started to walk away…
Later…at the earth kingdom's port…5:24 pm
Prince Zuko was at one end and Princess Ayame was at the other end, bearing Fire nation on flag that was on their on shoulders just when it commenced, Prince Zuko was wondering why Princess Ayame was wearing a breastplate…
"Question..." Prince Zuko announced and Ayame nodded to approve his question
"Why are you wearing a breast plate?" he asked and she simple replied
"Usually women fight with women, seeing that you're not a girl, I have to wear this…" she smirked then Prince Zuko trembled the very thought of Ayame topless…
"Whatever…let's start already…" Ayame was throwing a simple fireball at him, Prince Zuko evades and counters and hits Ayame unfortunately, it hit him back! Ayame fell lightly on the floor and Prince Zuko landed with a loud thud. He looked up and saw the armor glowing slightly…Ayame grinned
"Surprised? This is no ordinary armor…This is a specially crafted plate…" she slowly rose from the dirty floor
"Specially crafted, eh?" Prince Zuko repeated, and rose from the ground
"Spot on…whatever fire hits me, it hurts just a little and it returns the attack…twice the damage…" she was now standing up
"Either way…what a cheater" Prince Zuko said to himself...just then it hit him…
"This is'return fire' armor…" Ayame added "From the legendary smith himself…"
"Shou Yuu…" he said…he was devastated…Ayame's own Grandpa (whish is actually his uncle) was the legendary smith himself…
"It was a present…" she gloated… "Now Prince Zuko…know that his weapons and armors are powerful…therefore you have two choices… withdraw this match or fight and hurt yourself…" she looked at him…leering with a triumphant face, knowing Price Zuko…he wouldn't give up…
"I refuse to withdraw…" he said, back to his fighting position…
"Fine if that's how it is…" Ayame began to attack, letting out a powerful strike, Prince Zuko was blown away, and he tried to attack but it returned to him twice the damage…just then…if only…he got hold of her…he could burn her armor enough to break it…it happened to him once…but it's worth a try…
"Bring it on…" Prince Zuko beckoned her to come closer and she just blew out a huge fireball and it luckily missed him and Prince Zuko was fast enough to grab her and started to blow fire in her armor
"Stop! What are you doing?" Ayame tried to wiggle her way out of this, but Prince Zuko has a strong grip on her…just after a few seconds…she heard something crack…Ayame couldn't hold it but she uses full force to burn the Prince…but she couldn't get her hands out and just then she heard another crack…her armor was starting to brake out…just then…something pushed them apart with a large amount fire…upon impact…they were blown away… Ihro and Shou interfered with their duel… both fell on the ground…Prince Zuko landed on the floor…it looked like he was able to see clearly…and somehow he was knocked out unconscious…then Ayame was able to see next to her…bits and pieces of her armor…she wasn't worried of her chest because she remembered her chest was bandaged with rolls of bandages (don't ask…) she was more likely worried of her armor…what would Grandpa Shou say?
"Damn…" she uttered and her vision was blurry…everything faded…then it went black…she felt tired…
