A/N: Thanks for the reviews.
Chapter 6:
Zuko was on his bed meditating. It was 6 A.M. May was sound asleep. He had a light white shirt and sweat pants on. Zuko looked over at May. She looked so peaceful when she was asleep. Her hair still up in a ponytail. May opened her eyes and yawned.
"Morning." said Zuko.
"Uh, huh." said May. "what time is it?"
"It's 6." said Zuko. "Sleep well?"
"Yeah," said May. May got up and headed for the door, though she was still half asleep so she didn't see that it was close. She bumped right into it.
"Ouch!" said May as she rubbed her head.
"Try opening the door." said Zuko.
"I'll try that, Zuko." said May as she opened the door. Zuko couldn't help but let a small smile come on his face. May always seemed to do something stupid like that. Most girls in his world would've yelled at him for making a comment like that, but not May. She always took it like he was just trying to help. Zuko got up to find May hopping around on one foot. She had her pj's on which had cat on them for the pants and a shirt that was blue on.
"What did you do now?" asked Zuko.
"Hit my toe against the table." said May sitting down.
"you just can't get anything right this morning an you?" said Zuko sitting next to May.
"How about like everyday." said May. A figure came in from the door. In the doorway stood a man about 6 foot 5 inches tall with brown hair. He had a sleeveless shirt on with shorts. May put her hand to her head.
"who's that?" whispered Zuko.
"My dad, A.K.A. General Baker who is very strict." whispered May. "NEVER get on his bad side."
"Hello, May." said General Baker.
"hi, dad," said May. The general looked at Zuko.
"You must be that one banished prince from that one nation that is trying to take over the world." said her dad. "It's a pathetic attempt to try something so stupid!" If this guy hadn't been May's dad, Zuko would've fighting him then and there.
"His name is Zuko first off, dad!" said May. "Second, he is a prince from the Fire Nation. Third, he was banished trying to save people. So think before you speak."
"Watch your tongue!" said General Baker.
"I'm leaving." said May. May got up and went upstairs leaving the Prince from the Fire Nation and General Baker in one room.
"May tells me that you saved her." said her dad(I'm just going to call him General Baker from now on.) "Don't expect any special treatments from it. Your under my rule now, and if you have any problems with it tell me now." Zuko took a deep breath. He was about to break out in a yelling spree. Zuko stood up.
"I have no problems with it, and you address me as Prince Zuko." said Zuko. "Not banished Prince or Zuko."
"Then why do you let my daughter call you Zuko instead of Prince Zuko?" asked General Baker.
"Because, when we first met she addressed me as Prince Zuko." said Zuko. "She showed me respect and in return I said she could just call me Zuko instead."
"Your saying that I'm not showing any respect for you, then do we have a problem." said General Baker. "You will address me as General Baker, nothing else!" Zuko started walking to the stairs. "And stay away from my daughter!" Zuko just continued to go up stairs.
Zuko turned to find May on her bed. She looked really ticked off.
"He's always so, so, so rude to all of my friends!" said May. "I swear I want to kill him some days." Zuko sat down next to May. "He didn't used to be like this. He used to be nice and kind, but ever since he rejoined the army he has always been rude."
"Just remember, it could be worst if it was Zhao." said Zuko.
"You don't understand, he used to be caring and fun." said May. "But ever since they wanted him to join this top secret project when I was nine, he changed."
"It's okay, May." said Zuko. "He probably still loves you."
"Really, I haven't noticed these passed years." said May.
"Give me that happy face of yours." said Zuko. "I'm suppose to be the one who gets angry, not you." May just glared at Zuko. Zuko gave May a push. Usually she would've pushed him right back, but not this time. "Shove me back, May." said Zuko.
"I'm not in the mood." said May. Zuko put his arm around her and pulled him closer to him.
"Your not the only one with a father who doesn't understand you." said Zuko.
"Sometimes he just makes my life so complicated." said May. "He tries to control my life like I'm a helpless girl. And I don't think finding out that I'm a firebender has helped."
"Maybe that's why you came to my world." said Zuko. "To get away from your father for a change."
"Maybe." said May. May pushed Zuko off the bed. "That's pay back for pushing me!" May got a pillow and started hitting Zuko with it.
"pillow fight?" said Zuko. "You know I'll win!" He grabbed a pillow and started hitting May with it.
After 10 minutes of hard pillow fighting, May sat on her bed. She looked straight ahead.. Zuko sat down by her.
"Sometimes I wonder what I do without you Zuko," said May. "I don't think it was luck that I fell into the Avatar world."
"Neither do I." said Zuko.
"Thanks for cheering me up." She said. "I better go get ready to go to Grandma's. We have Thanksgiving coming up later."
