chapter three

Zuko opend a big brown door and she walked inside. She looked at Zuko and smiled a little. He smiled back and pulled out a chair for her. She sat in it and sighed. She looked out the giant window on her right.

Zuko smiled at her and pulled a rope by the door. He watched Katara's beautiful form in the sunlight. It had been such a long time since he had last seen her. A maid came in the room. "Yes my lord?" she asked in a quiet sweet voice. Zuko smiled and looked at the older lady.

"Two cups of hot coacoa please." he said back. She nodded and walked out of the room. He walked over to the chair in front of Katara and sat down. "How do you like my study, I wanted a window in the room so I had to change rooms." he said and laughed a little.

Katara looked at him and sighed. He has such beautiful gold eyes. He still has that sweet soul of the fourteen year old boy I had first met. Zuko looked at her and smiled a sweet and warm smile. She smiled back and folded her hands in her lap.

Zuko put a hand on her hands and gripped them. "It's okay, you can tell me when your ready." he said. She sighed and looked down in her lap. She smiled and took a deep breath. "I remember my brother always use to tell me a story to put me to sleep after I came home from here." she said and a tear ran down her cheek. She missed everyone already.

Zuko patted her hands. She looked at him. He nodded. "He would always say, there is a battle in side us all, a bad wolf and a good wolf...This is silly." she said. He shook his head and smiled. "Keep going I don't think it's silly at all." he said in a sweet brotherly way.

"The evil wolf is anger,envy,jealousy,sorrow,regret,greed,arrogance,self-pity,guilt,resentment,inferority,lies,false pride,superiority,and ego." she took a deep breath and looked at him. He nodded. "The good wolf is joy,peace,love,hope,serenity,humility,kindness,benevolence,empathy,geberostity,truth,compassion and faith." she said and she frowned. He stood up and walked over to her. She got up and hugged him.

"I miss them so much." she said and a couple of tears ran down her cheeks. He hugged her tighter. "Which wolf wins?" he asked her. She looked up at him. "The one you feed." she said and hugged him again. "Which wolf do you think you are?" Zuko asked and pushed some lose hair behind her ears.

"Both." she mummbled into his shirt. He smiled. "I think your the good wolf, so compassionate and loving, peaceful." he said and ran his fingers through her hair. She smiled and enjoyed his soft delicate hands. "Which one are you Zuko?" she asked in his shirt. He smiled and was silent for a little bit.

"I would have to say the evil wolf." he said and frowned a little. She laughed in his shirt. "You an evil wolf?" she said and looked at him. He had sorrow and diffrent emotions in his eyes. "I have been throught much since you have been here Katara, it's been six years." he said and frowned.

"My father banished me, I had to find the Avatar before I could come home, but he showed me how to care, We went together and defeated my father." he said and looked at the window. "You..you killed your father?" she asked. He nodded and looked at he again. "It's not easy for me either, and sometime I would like you to meet him." he said. She raised an eyebrow. "Who?" she asked. He smiled a little. "The Avatar."

Knock.Knock. "Come in." Zuko yelled. The older woman who had been in there eairlier walked in with a tray and two cups with a kettle. "You hot coacoa sir." she said and set the tray down on the table. Zuko nodded. "That will be all, Thank you." he said. The woman nodded and walked out of the room.

Zuko picked up a cup and poured some brown liquid in it. He handed it to Katara. She smiled and took it. She sat down and blew on the liquid. She took a sip and sighed. Zuko smiled and poured himself a cup. He sat down in his chair and took a little sip. "Now are you ready to tell me what you wanted to?" he asked in a kind voice.

She nodded and set her cup down on the little stand by her chair. She looked at him and smiled a little. "I have a diffrent past Zuko, I'm not sure if I can do this." she said and looked at her hands in her lap. "Of course you can, and after your done I can tell you mine." he said. She nodded and looked back at him.

"I never knew my parents me and my brother were found on the porch of Master Aang's door. No one knew were we came from or who we were. But the only thing they did knows was what a note said that was on my basket. It said, 'Take care of my little ones.' and that was all I knew of whoever I came from." She took a deep breath and looked at Zuko. He nodded and made the looked that she took as a 'keep going' look.

My brother and I grew up on a little island called Kyoshi. I grew up around my best friend Python. We were as you call them assasins. I never wanted to be I just wanted to grow up with my real parents. They never told me that I wasn't theirs but I knew. They had lighter skin I have darker, their earth nation, I'm water.

I found out I could water bend when I was six. Me and Python, Sokka, and his girl friend Suki all trained in combat. We were practicing and I got made when a boy threw a rock at me and hit me in my leg. I put my hands up and threw water at him. I had no idea what I did. But he never came back.

I told my parents Kia my mother and Pio my father. They were very frightened and almost sold me to the fire nation. But Master aang save me. "You will work on my account as an assasin now that I have save your life." he said in a voice that I could never forget.

Python saw how misserable I was and killed her parents and mine. She came to Master Aang and told him of what she had done. She was not sad,mad, or did not deny it she was proud of what she did. Her and me stuck together every momment never leaving each other unless we had a mission. But we would write to each other.

Once when Python left me she met someone and she never told me. I felt so betrayed when she left for him one day. She said it was a mission. But I never saw her scroll and she always shows me her scroll. I asked Master Aang and he denied.

She ended up killing him for giving him everything she knew, and found out he was a spy from the fire nation. During her absence, a boy and a prince came to the island and destroyed it. He kind of looked like you. And there was a girl and a boy. Both water nation and the boy was the avatar.

About a month later Python came home and helped us rebuild the village. I went on some missions she went on some. We became friends again. Python started to share everything with me like we use to. But right when I thought things couldn't get worse. A man name Commander Zhoa came and destroyed the village again. He was about to take me but Python got me back and we ran them off the island.

"And thats my life line up till now." she sighed and looked at him. He raised an eyebrow. "I know thats not all I can see it in your eyes Katara, but I understand. We will have you write to him tommarow if that is okay." she nodded and took another sip of her drink.

Okay I bet your probobly like what the heck where is this story going to go? Well these chapters are just to get Zuko's trust. You'll see a lot more action later! R&R
