O.M.F.G what the hell was wrong with the new episode! I hated it, well different parts of it! First of all we got to see Iroh almost NAKED! I don't knw about you but that isn't really the character I want to see half naked! Second, since when does Zuko get moppy and happy! Talk about a major character change! And here all of us in the Avatar Fandom thought we knew the prince as a hard ass, that was hell bent on taking his throne back, not just wanting to go back home? I was totally confused! But those parts were fine, I got over it when Zuko threw a temper tantrum on the ship!
But let's look over at the avatar side! I had no problem with this! I love those parts! Especially getting to see Sokka with his hair down! I wouldn't have imagined it that way.
But the one thing that really burned my biscuits, the one thing that really pissed me off..WHO THE FUCK DO THE WRITER'S THINK THEY ARE MAKING ZUKO CUT OFF HIS HAIR! I mean I understand the significance, but if they knew they were going to do this, why did they makehim such a cool character. And now what of him? He justdissappears intooblivion? Does he justgo away? Or is itgoing to come straight of of a fanfic and he decides to join up withAang? But why would he do that, since it wasn't the throne he wanted it was just to go home? ACK! I am so totally confused, and a little bummed about the show. I mean, the hair...It was Zuko...nowZuko just looks...bald and hot. Are they gonna have him shave off that little spatch or are they going to leave it that way! Oh the possiblities.
Well I believe I have ranted enough.Sorry this chapter is so late in coming. I had to get over the lack-of-hair trama.I hope you enjoy this chapter, OH and I know that Sokka is old enough to know better, that's kinda the whole tone of this chapter. I tried a fight scene . I believe I failed miserably but I will let ya'll decide.
Zuko walked out of the doctor's work room and into the room where his uncle sat waiting. He stopped dead in his tracks. This was something even in his weirdest dreams could never have imagined happening. The avatar was holding his son. Zuko narrowed his eyes and walked over to Aang taking his son away from the young boy.
"The doctor is working on her right now." Zuko hissed and looked down at his son with a loving smile. But Zuko felt eyes on him.
"What are you staring at?" Zuko hissed again bringing the child up to his shoulder. Aang looked up from the baby to look at the prince.
"He's very pretty. What is his name?" Zuko glared at the avatar warily. Just what was this young monk trying to accomplish.
"Riyo." Iroh said with a smile. Zuko turned and glared a the old man. Iroh shook his head and the smile left his face. He stood up and walked over taking Riyo from his father.
"You are still injured Prince Zuko. You must sit down and try to at least slow the bleeding." Zuko snalred his nose at his uncle and walked outside. He looked around and the street was clear of people.
A small orb of fire came to his hand engulfing it. He looked down at his wound that still had fresh blood oozing between that, that had already dried. He cleanched his teeth, this was gonna hurt like hell, but it had to be done or else it would hurt even worse. He closed his eyes and stuck the burning flame to his abs, more or less like putting out a cigarette on his stomach. He let out a jagged puff and looked up taking in a deep breath. He needed to take a walk.
Sokka peeked his head back in the doctor's house and frowned. He stepped in and leaned up agianst the wall crossing his hands over his chest. He wanted to see his sister, but then again he didn't. He had never had that sick feeling about his sister, but now it had seemed to settle in his gut. Just what had she been doing while she was gone? Sokka was completely confused, had every one in the entire world lost their minds?
Just then the short doctor stuck her head out and looked around at the awaiting guests. The one she was looking for wasn't there. She shook her head and walked out anyway.
"The girl is going to be okay. In fact she did most of the healing herself. I just had to sew up the muscles and the flesh. She's a little groggy from the herbs I gave her to ease the pain but if you want you can see her." The doctor looked at the two newcomers who started her way but she stuck her arm out stopping Aang.
"You are the avatar, right?" The young monk nodded.
"Yes."
"Then you should be able to heal her fully."
Aang just stared at her and then it occured to him just what she was saying and he hung his head.
"No mam. I haven't gotten that strong yet. I wish I could though." Aang said choking back tears. He wasn't powerful enough to help her, but he was powerful enough to almost kill her.
Sokka didn't even glance at the avatar as he walked past into the room where his baby sister was. Sokka stopped at the dor way. The sheets that she was lying on were covered in blood, but Sokka was relieved that the doctor had at least cleaned his sister up.
Sokka walked over and picked up his sister's hand. She opened her eyes slightly and looked at her. Sokka smiled.
"Are you okay?"Katara frowned and a tear slid down her face.
"Where is my baby?' Katara mumbled. Aang walked in and stood at the door way watching the siblings interact.
"What?" Sokka ask slightly confused. Katara moaned and started crying.
"I want to see my baby! Where is Riyo?" She sobbed. Sokka looked at her in confusion then turned back to look at the young avatar, whose face palled.
"Riyo is the name of Zuko's son..." Sokka's eyes widened and he jumped up throwing the chair back. He had to find that bastard now! He was out for blood, completely forgetting everything he knew about the reproduction process. Aang watched with wide eyes as Sokka stormed out. Aang turned and looked back at Katara as the doctor walked in holding Riyo.
"My baby..." Katara said reaching her hands out. The doctor turned and looked and the young monk.
"The crying and carrying on is an affect from the herbs. It will go away shortly."Aang nodded and watched as Katara cooed over the baby. Aang turned as Iroh walked in. The old man walked over to Katara 's side and ruffled her hair a little bit.
"You are a very strong girl." Iroh said with a smile and turned around to look at the avatar. Aang was just staring blankly, as he had done earlier.
"Um sir, how is that Katara's baby when she had only been gone a few months.." Aang said a little bit of sense coming back to him. Iroh smiled and patted the youn monk on the head.
"It's a very long story." Aang nodded and looked at Katara.
"We have time.."
A mighty roar of thunder broke through the otherwise quiet streets. Sokka stopped and looked up to the sky where a few tiny drops landed on his face, only leading the charge for the millions of brothers. The downpour was sudden, with the only warning the clap of thunder. Sokka growled as a few loose hairs fell down into his face. He looked around, boomerang in hand. The village wasn't that big and he knew Zuko couldn't have gone very far. He looked down the now muddy streets watchign all the venders pack in their things. Sokka clenched his fist. By god he was going to find that good for nothing firebender and teach him a thing or two about a water tribe warrior, or at least messing with the warrior's little sister. Sokka's eyes caught movement, and the adreniline began to rush, when he seen the high traditional ponytail that signified the Fire Nation.
Sokka's eyes narrowed as he bagan to walk heavily towards the prince, who was walking in the same direction. Sokka's pupil's dialated as he brought his arm back, then with a strong jerk of his arm he sent his boomerang spiraling directly towards the back of Zuko's head.
The rush only intensified as the prince was thrown to the ground on hands and knees from the blow.
Sokka started running feeling the mud sink underneath his feet, as his legs pumped faster pushing him closer to the awaiting quarell, that made his testostorone growl with the long time needed misplaced aggression. He jerked his arm out catching his boomerang without missing a step.
Zuko grabbed his head and flared as he stood up, causing the mud around him to dry and crack. He turned to see who would in their right mind dare to attack a firebender, and the prince at that. The fire extinguished as he seen his woman's brother running full force towards him. Zuko ducked as Sokka dived at him. Zuko shot up one agile feet, he knew this was coming, but what had set the idiot off.
Sokka growled and twirled his boomerang around in his hand before catching it still. He raised it high and charged the young firebender. Zuko shook his head and grabbed Sokka's hand and hit the top of it, with his own fist making Sokka drop the boomerang.
"Stop this!" Sokka glared at the prince's order and brought a fist around.
"RIGHT!" Sokka screamed as the fist was caught but Zuko didn't see the foot coming. Somehow Sokka had managed to twist his arm around and bring the opposite foot down in an axe kick right on Zuko's arm. Zuko let go and glared at Sokka. He really didn't want to have to hurt this fool but by the looks of things it would be hard not to. Sokka again lunged at him, and jsut as a streak of lightening slipt the sky Zuko grabbed Sokka's arm and threw him face down in the mud, holding him down with his knee in the middle of the other boy's back.
"Would you stop!" Zuko commanded only to be thrown over Sokka' s head by a pair of legs that hadn't been pinned down. Sokka didn't waste anytime jumping on the prince. Sokka grabbed the prince by the neck and stared at him, the rain dripping down his now fully loose hair. Both boy's were covered in mud and were soaked from the persisting downpour.
"You BASTARD! You stole my sister's innocence!" Sokka said and brought his arm back to punch the prince but Zuko did something that Sokka wasn't expected, but maybe should have been. Zuko's hand shot forward and grabbed Sokka around the neck, and using his power Zuko threw Sokka to the side on his back. Zuko reversed their positions, this time minding the other boys feet.
"What the hell are you talking about!" Zuko growled pinning Sokka down, but due to the slick and the give of the mud, Sokka pulled his arm free and landed a strong blow to the side of Zuko's face. Sokka then grabbed a rock and flungin it at the prince, but it only landed in the mud splattering mud over the both of them. Sokka stood up and looked down on Zuko. Zuko stood up and glared straight back at Sokka.
"How dare you have a child with MY sister! You bastard the least you could have done was marry her! But no you kidnap her against her will, probably rape her..." But no sooner then the last phrase came out of Sokka's mouth, he was laying in the mud with blood gushing from his nose. Zuko glared down at him.
"Don't you ever say something like that again!" Sokka just growled and jumped back up. They were at it again. Zuko finally got tired of it and decided to put a stop to this foolishness. Zuko pinned Sokka to the mud, and pushed down on him till mud was oozing it's way up and over Sokka's limbs. Then with a burst of heat solidified the mud. Zuko sat back up and looked up at the still drenching sky. He didn't have much time before the idiot could get otu so he would have to make it quick.
"Now you have to listen to me! Are you so stupid, or in theWater Tribe do they not teach you anything about sex?" Sokka just cleanched his teeth, pulling against the earth. Zuko narrowed his eyes.
"Your sister has been away fro you for three months. My son is three months old." Sokka stopped wiggling and thought for a moment.
"That just means that she isn't the only woman that you have taken advantage of!" Sokka felt the warm rain start to sink in to the dirt making it sloshy again. Zuko started to say something else but before he could Sokka sprang from the mud like a daisy and tackled Zuko.
"You tell me you never slept with my sister and you would be lying..." Zuko got a smug look on his face.
"I haven't slept with your sister, and she hasn't bore my child...yet" Sokka growled and brought his fist back.
"SOKKA!" Sokka turned around. Aang was standing with his hands on his hips, Momo mimicking him on his shoulder.
"Katara's feeling better and wants to see you." Aang said looking at the situation trying to supress a giggle. Sokka's hair was down with mud and rain dripping from it, different parts of his clothes were tore, and there he said straddling Zuko, a knee either side, with the prince in pretty much the same condition. Sokka stood up and looked down at the prince, he snarled his nose and brought his arm across his face and flung the mud into Zuko's. Sokka caught up with Aang and walked off to see his baby sister. He had a few choice words for her anyway.
Zuko remained on the ground leaning on either of his elbows, he had already wiped trhe mud from his face and was shaking his head. He leaned his head back looking up at the sky. That was the most ignorant thing he believed he had ever been apart of. He was attacked because the idiot thought that Riyo was actually Katara's child. But what Sokka didn't know was that the thought hadn't even crossed Zuko's mind till now. What if they did have a child together?
