Chapter 8: Rally The Troops
Lerolas was a wreck after that. The Prince now had enough power to get more than enough of what he wanted, and what he wanted, was war.
Lerolas barely noticed when Sokka crept past Souzen, in the shadows.
Lerolas was starting to nod off that night, not like she needed sleep. She jerked awake, and saw Prince Souzen asleep. Dreaming those maniacal dreams of his.
Souzen had no longer paid attention to the nights when Lerolas spied on his dreams.(which was every night) ever since he was 7 months old. No one else could see them, and the Elf couldn't tell anyone, anyways. So Lerolas gave up on spying. They were all the same, anyway.
But Lerolas noticed when the door to the so-called Prince's room opened. She checked the clock. Yup, midnight. Who would come into a Prince's room at midnight? The boy wasn't crying, so his parents nor a nurse had any reason to be in here. But an assassin would have a reason.
"Sokka, what are you doing here?" Sokka stopped, and turned around. Was it possible? It was! Lerolas was standing there in the corner!
"L-l-Lerolas?" Lerolas spun to the mirror. She could see her reflection. She was still colored like a spirit, but she was slowing regaining the colors from when she had been alive.
"Is t-t-that you?" Lerolas turned back to face Sokka. If she could see her reflection, no doubt Sokka could see her too.
"Yes." She whispered. Then tilted her head at what she clutched in Sokka's hand.
"Come to kill the Prince?" Sokka looked form his knife, to the spirit Elf in flesh, then back to the 5-year-old boy sleeping on the bed.
Sokka nodded solemnly.
Lerolas didn't know what to say. But Souzen, who had just woken up, knew what to say.
"MOMMY! DADDY! THERE ARE PEOPLE IN MY ROOM!" The Prince screamed. Sokka dashed out of the room, while Lerolas faded back into the spirit world.
Zuko and Katara burst through the door, and rushed over to their son.
"Souzen, what's wrong?" Katara asked quietly, while her husband rocked their son, trying to calm him.
"T-t-there were p-p-people in my room, mommy. They looked different." Zuko tilted his head.
"How were there people in here?" Zuko asked. Souzen shrugged.
"I dunno, daddy. But the blue-boy just ran away while the pointy-eared girl just went bye-bye!" Zuko and Katara looked at their son as if he was crazy for a moment, when each one realized something.
Blue-boy? Could it mean? No doubt. Sokka was here.
Katara thought darkly.
Pointy-eared? No, that can't be! She's dead! But bye-bye, no, she's, Lerolas is haunting my son!
Zuko was dumbfounded. What did Lerolas want with his son?
"Guards!" Katara yelled. About 20 came in.
"Sokka is in this building. Find him." She ordered. The guards bowed, and rushed out the door, and straight through Lerolas. She gagged as she went through 20 different memories.
"Katara," Zuko whispered. The Lady looked up.
"What is it, Zuko?" Zuko sighed.
"Lerolas, she's, she's here. Watching our son. She might even be in this room." Lerolas clapped her hands.
"Wow! Zuko's smarter than he looks!" Lerolas laughed.
Katara bit her lip.
"But she's dead! Zuko!" Zuko nodded.
"I know. Her spirit must have some sort of purpose for watching out son. The reason why, is sure to be evident soon." Lerolas nodded.
"Yes. All in good time."
It was the last day of summer, Souzen's birthday. And the Prince and his father stood on a platform, above many soldiers in the red armor of Fire Nation.
"Happy birthday, Prince Souzen. Your own division of the Fire Nation army. Use it well." Souzen clapped his hands.
"Thank you daddy! Thank you so much!" Souzen turned his head to the place where Lerolas stood.
"Well, you stupid little Elf. You're running out of time, I've rallied the troops, and I'm itching to start this war."
"Just wait, firebender," Lerolas spat.
"Just you wait."
