Chapter Two: Do I look like I'm nine or something?
Zuko stomped right past me. Boy, was he tall or what? I blinked and he finally noticed me. Snarling, he demanded, QUITE RUDELY I must add, "DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE AVATAR IS, GIRL?"
I stood my ground and glared back at him. I stuck my tongue out; it looked really bumpy and stuff 'cause I burnt my tongue on hot chocolate the other day. IT HURT. Zuko stumbled back at my retort, in which I said, "If I did, I would rather lose my first kiss to a moron than tell you!"
He almost slapped me. Again, I emphasize, ALMOST slapped me. But, of course, a slap is a girl attack. DOESN'T ANYONE KNOW THAT? Anyhow, as soon as he was about to slap me, I grabbed his arm with both of my hands, twisted them to make him cringe to the side, kneed him in the stomach, forced one of his hands behind his back, shoved him to the ground, still holding his hand behind his back, and laughed as I saw him struggle under my weight, for I was sitting, now, on him. "A slap is a girl attack, don't you know?" I asked. I stared at his uncle. What was his name? It was on the tip of my tongue.
"Oh, I remember you, you're Iro-san!" I said, slapping my head, showing my stupidity. Zuko's uncle laughed at me, or was it Zuko? I don't know. I don't understand guys at all. Give me a quiz and I'll fail it.
"Oh, Zuko, she got you there," Iro-san said laughing. Zuko scowled and since he was in no condition to fire bend, I was safe from harm. He could only insult me.
"How could this nine-year-old girl get me?" he screamed. WAIT, 9? DO I LOOK NINE? My cousin said I did, but I thought she was kidding. NO WAY! I put on my police officer hat, which, if I may comment, came out of nowhere. I love the anime world.
" Remain silent, everything that you say may and will be used against you," I said in a police officer tone. Iro-san laughed even harder as I got up. A smirked as Zuko continued to scowl at me as he got up also. He seriously needs anger management classes. I threw my police hat somewhere behind me.
Zuko plunged his hands towards me and a… FIREBALL IS COMING RIGHT AT ME! I dodged at the last second; it ALMOST smoldered my shoes. Well, my shoes didn't look very cool either; it wouldn't have mattered, but they were MY shoes. My ugly blue sneakers.
"Zuko, Zuko," Iro-san said, stopping his nephew from shooting another fireball at me. And that was good, my face still needs to be in this world, whether people like it or not. YOU GOT THAT RIGHT, like it or NOT. As Zuko swirled around to Iro and quietly stuck away as fast as I could. Sadly, I failed. I tripped on some stupid rock, which caused a chain reaction to some squirrels running into trees and falling back down, snakes leapt out of the trees and chased the squeaking squirrels, rabbits jumped out of their holes, one stupid rabbit happened to hit me, which freaked me out, which made me accidentally, YES ACCIDENTALLY, made me worthy of a fire nation's trap. This was the part where I screamed, Zuko screamed at me too for being stupid, and they dragged me away.
Oh, goodie, goodie. I'm going to be on that boat of his. It's probably smelly and has cockroaches everywhere. You know, they never show that stuff on screen. It's just there.
Anyway, I'm on Zuko's ship and he's interrogating me. It's soo much fun. He's asking me if I knew where the Avatar was. And, DUH, I skipped out on them a while back on accident. Hey, I'm a pyro; fire interests me.
"You're lying!" Zuko shouted in my face. Slamming his fist on the door, I expected that he thought that would intimidate me. Uhh, WRONG. It made me jump, like all sudden loud noises, it's just that I kinda figured that was gonna happen.
"If I was lying, would my face look like it's lying?"
"You're grinning like a hyena, 9-year-old!" Zuko replied, still in his I'm-so-mighty-and-you-should-obey-me voice. Okay, I grin and smile a lot. And when I'm lying, I usually do that, but when I'm telling the truth I'm doing that too. And everyone thinks I'm lying. And… one last thing, DO I LOOK LIKE I'M NINE OR SOMETHING?
"I'm not 9! I'm much older than that! I'm 33!" I snapped at him. He seemed startled and glared at me. I knew he couldn't help but ask the same question everyone else would.
"Really…?"
"HECK NO!" I responded, screaming as loud as I could. I swore I heard something explode, hehehe, Ka-BOOM. I calmed down, trying to save my sanity. Jeez, boys are so stupid sometimes. Well, not all boys, just most. NUH-UH, don't you start throwing tomatoes at me! Or shoving a crowbar down my throat! I'm warning you! "Do I look as old as your uncle?"
"HOW DO YOU KNOW HE'S MY UNCLE?" he suddenly asked, which made me jump again. Err, you all know I could exactly say, 'Oh, you're all over TV. I know how much you need to see the Avatar to restore your pride, blah, blah, blah!'
I simply sat there quietly. Annoying Zuko was pretty fun. I looked to the floor and oh jeez, I see it. A cockroach. Maybe it's just one, but it's one all right. I'm tied to this chair and it's crawling towards me. My knees shook in fear. Those things are UGLY. Zuko saw my reaction and stared at what I was staring at. He grinned and walked up to it… AND PICKED IT UP! EWW!
The cockroach in his hand, he placed his hand close to me, the bug's head sticking out. He continued, knowing he had the upperhand, probably."Where's the Avatar!"
"I… I don't know," I said.EWW!It's coming close to me! Someone kick this guy or something, I need help!
He shovedthe cockroach evencloser to me. It's little antennae almost touching my face. "WHERE IS HE?"
"GET IT AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed and a wave of power shot out. It killed the cockroach, cutting the rope that tied me to a chair, and shoving Zuko into the opposite wall. I shoved him aside and ran on deck. Luckily, the boat was far from shore. Sadly, I couldn't swim. I was trapped, on this boat. Then, a humongous buffalo, which I instantly knew who he was, Appa, came and Aang grabbed my hand, pulling me onto Appa,and we flew off.
"Thank goodness," I sat down, letting myself fall back in relief. Smiling and I said, "I seriously owe you guys one. I would have been a bunch of ashes if you guys didn't come."
"No problem," Aang replied, driving Appa. He turned around and grinned at me. I don't know why, but I sat up and grinned back. Katara smiled and well… Sokka was an idiot and stuck out his tongue at me.
"Careful, I know police moves," I said, putting on the police hat on Momo's head. You know, I think that one was mine. It must've fallen on her head when I threw it. She must've been watching me. Good girl, Momo. But, after I said that comment, everyone looked at me like I was some sort of new monkey.
Oh, duh, they don't have police in this show. I remember now.
"I mean, I am very dangerous!" I fixed quickly. "Where are we heading?"
"Fire nation!" Katara shouted, pointing down at Zuko's ship. Aang quickly flicked his reins on Appa and Appa went much faster. I had to grip on tight to the saddle to keep from flying off.
I soon saw the cannons aiming towards us.
Oh, poop.
End of Chapter 2: Do I look like I'm nine or something?
Author's Note: Hey everyone! If you haven't noticed why I've called this story 'Quote Me, Will Ya?' I shall tell you now. If you still want to guess... then... err... o.o Go ahead...? Anyway, I wouldn't say why I called this story 'Quote Me, Will Ya?' is a spoiler. It's just because I'm quoting something I say in the story. It's very obvious in this chapter since Zuko calls me a 9-year-old many MANY times. Anyway, next chapter, we're going to talk about Zuko... and maybe we'll meet Jet, by "accident" of course.
