Chapter 7 Decisions

Sakura thought what am I doing here? Aang needs help and guidance. Zuko and I don't exactly mesh together as well as we used to. She got out of the bed and began to use her magic to pack. She slipped out into the night flying to Aang.

The next morning……………

Zuko went into the room saying, "Hey Sakura rise and…… Sakura! Where are you?"

He then noticed a note on the bed. It read something like this-

Dear Zuko,

I am sorry to leave all of a sudden, but the tide is changing and I must help Aang

Sakura

He thought why is it always like this? Well I don't need luck I don't want it. He then yelled, "Uncle!"

"Yes?" asked Uncle.

"Do we know where the Avatar is headed?" asked Zuko.

"Yes, in fact we're headed towards the Avatar, right now." Replied Uncle.

"Good." Said Zuko, "Also Sakura left to help the Avatar during the night. Please, just don't ask, I need some time alone to think."

"Ok, Zuko." said Uncle.

Zuko sat down and started to meditate. He thought about happier times with Sakura. He thought, Sakura do you love me? Why did you leave? I guess my father isn't on the top of your list of favorite people. I know I'm not on his. But, now that I think about it I never was. Was should I give the Avatar to him to be rejected again. Glory only lasts a little while.

Zuko kept pondering over these thoughts A few hours later he decided to eat quickly. He then went to sleep. He was haunted with different memories. He woke up the next day and decided to talk to Uncle.

He said, "Uncle I need to talk to you in private."

Uncle replied, "Ok Zuko."

Zuko said, "Uncle, I've been thinking and need advice. Do you think I should stop chasing the Avatar?"

Uncle replied, "It is your decision. You're heart will know what to do."

Zuko said, "My heart is telling me I should help the Avatar. That Sakura is right, my father may be happy that I bring the Avatar. Even so, it will go back to how it was, Zula favored and I will be shunned. I feel like my father will just continue to abuse his power and his people."

"So shall I go tell the men that we are going to help the Avatar and all who disapprove leave?" asked Uncle.

"Yes, Uncle." said Zuko.
