Serenity's Bit: I'm sorry that the story is not really a story. it's more like someone telling a story. This chapter is not very long but please read and review. i would really be happy if you could give suggestions on how to right better. People get huggs for reviewing!
Later in the week, after being held in the prison cells, they council gave into the wishes of the Fire Lord. They let me work in side the palace, as a servant.
I was instructed to be the servant of a newly turned sixteen year old prince. His name was Prince Lu Ten. As I walked into his chamber I found that the fire nation was not the most modest people in the world.
The room was huge. There were large fire nation symbols all over the walls. Everything was different shades of red and orange. "Oh, you must be the new servant…" a voice said from behind me. I turned to see a young man, my age. With long black hair, grey eyes. He was about a whole foot taller then I. "You were the one who was assumed to be the Earth Nation princess, were you not?" he asked.
I didn't like this. I knew that the fire nation men were all the same. And I didn't like being in the same room with another one, alone, again.
I lowered my head and walked past him, to the large door of the room. "Wait! I was talking to you…" he grabbed my upper arm and pulled me back. "No! leave me alone!" I shouted pushing away from him. I ran out the room and back to the servant's quarters.
Every day was the same thing. I would wake early to clean his room, after he left. And stay until I could hear his footsteps coming into the room. I told myself that that would never happen again. Never.
About three weeks after I had come to the palace I went to clean his room one morning after he had left. I walked into the room, leaving the door open behind me. I went over to make the bed when the door was slammed shut.
I jumped to see that Prince Lu Ten was standing there with a small key in his hand. His grey eyes met mine.
"Alright, we need to talk." He said, taking a few steps forward. I shook my head and grabbed the nearest thing that I could reach. A large candle holder. "Stop! Don't come any closer!" I yelled.
He raised his arms in defense. "I'm not going to hurt you."
"Right! I now how all you Fire Nation pigs are!" I held the candle holder up, showing him I was not afraid. "Pigs? What are you talking about? I never did anything to you!" he kept walking closer, I took a few steps back, until I was up against the wall of the room.
"you are all pigs," I said quietly. "why are you afraid of me?" Prince Lu Ten stopped. About four feet away from me. He let his hands fall to his sides. "You're of the Fire Nation…"
"all you do is hurt people, innocent people, women and children too." I said, still holding the candle stick. "what has the Fire Nation done to you?"
"they took away something I can never get back…" I chocked out. "they took my…innocence. That captain, on that ship…" I bit my lower lip, I refused to cry. Especially in front of this Fire Pig.
Lu Ten crossed his arms, "What?" he shook his head. "No, the Fire Nation holds women very high; we never attack a woman unless it is necessary."
"Yeah right. I don't believe you…" I tightened my grip on the candle stick.
"the captain of that ship raped you?" he asked, "that is not expectable." I lowered my hands. "we must go to my grandfather. Behavior like this will not be tolerated."
The next day, the captain was arrested. And put in jail for life. Lu Ten had spoken to the Fire Lord and told him what had happened. As I stood outside the door, I could feel the heat from the room rise. Lu Ten said that he should have been put to death. "it would be only far. After what he did to you…" his eyes were so, caring. Not like the eyes I thought a Fire Nation Prince would have. I blushed as he looked to me. He smiled. "You need not worry anymore. You will be safe now that I am watching you."
