Me: I have to do the disclaimer before Gidget gets here.
Gidget: Hi!
Me: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Disclaimer: Do I have to spell it out? I do not own Avatar.
Me: This happened the morning before the Zutara kiss.
Not So New Enemy
"Princess Azula, you wanted to see me?" Keith entered Azula's room.
"Yes, I did. You informed me last night that there was someone else that we could use to kill my brother and capture your daughter. I would like to bring this person aboard."
"He is a skilled warrior. He will not fail you. And Princess, I have been thinking about how you will kill your brother. You talk of killing him where you find him. I think it would be better to capture him and take him back to the Fire Nation. You could kill him in public. That would strip him of any honor he may have." Keith suggested.
"That is a brilliant idea. I'll do it. I want Zuko to suffer any way possible. Now, what is the name of this person I'm bringing aboard."
"His name is Jet."
Several hours later Keith and Azula were walking through a forest.
"When I said 'let's go get him' I didn't know it meant hiking in the woods. Where is this Jet person?" Azula complained.
"Right here."
Azula whipped around, prepared to fight. She found herself face to face with a boy no older than herself.
"Hello Jet." Keith said.
"Hello Keith. I came alone as you requested. You said something about needing my help."
"We're trying to capture Prince Zuko, General Iroh, my daughter, and a waterbender named Katara. You once mentioned in one of your letters that the Avatar came here with Katara and her brother. Would you like to get Katara back?"
An evil grin found it's way onto Jet's face. "I'll come."
"Good. Let's go." Azula spoke to Jet for the first time.
(Later that night after the kiss.)
Zuko and Katara walked into James' room holding hands.
"What are you two so happy about?" Sarah asked.
"Sarah, Zuko and I are kind of together now. Is that okay?" Katara said, fearing Sarah answer.
"Finally. I've been waiting for this. Of couse its okay." Sarah told her.
"You're not mad?" Katara was bewilderd. She had been sure Sarah would be furious.
"No. Now its time for the both of you to go to bed and go to sleep." Sarah pused them out of the room.
"That was awkward." Zuko said.
"Yeah it was. She's right. We should get to bed. Come on." Katara sighed.
The next morning at breakfast no one said anything. Finally Iroh tried to break the silence.
"I hear that you two are together now. Congaulations." He was talking to Zuko and Katara.
"You've heard correctly Uncle." Zuko told him.
"Zuko let's go on deck." Katara pulled him away from the table.
Once they were on deck she said, "Why is no one talking?"
"I don't know. I think they planned this." Zuko informed her.
"What do you mean?"
"I think they've been trying to get us together and I think they purposely skipped dinner last night so we could be alone. I'm glad they did."
"Me too." Katara smiled.
They kissed again and broke apart when Iroh, James, and Sarah came up.
"We know." Katara said.
"So much for keeping them from finding out." Sarah sighed.
"Why didn't you just tell us Sarah? Why keep it secret?" Katara asked.
Sarah stared and said, "Zuko would have killed us all if we told you. We might have told you later but not while the plan was still in motion. Now let's all go to bed before Zuko gets angry." She turned and left. Zuko and Katara shrugged and followed.
At the same time Azula was meeting with Jet and Keith in the captian's quarters. They were standing over a map.
"Zuko will be heading toward the Fire Nation in hopes that the Avatar will follow him to get back the girls. He'll be near enough to land in case something goes wrong but he'll be out of sight from a shore. In the direction and speed we're going we should find him in a day or two."
"What are your orders for when we find them?" Keith inquired.
"We will go aboard with Jet. No one else is to come. Keith, capture the Lady Avatar first. She's the most dangerous. Then get Zuko, James, and Iroh. Jet, you'll be expected to help capture them. When they're in my you may take the waterbender." She instructed.
"Purfect," Jet purred evily.
They said their goodnights and left for their rooms.
As Jet walked down the hall he whispered, "Finally I'll have you back Katara. You will be mine."
Me: Jet is evil!
Jet: I'll finally get Katara back!
Katara: Colorcrystals, how could you do this to me?
Me: Relax. Do don't honestly think I'd let him hurt you? Sokka would kill me.
Katara: Surprisinly that makes me feel better.
Me: Anyway, this story is coming to an end.
Gidget: That's a relief. I won't have to endure this torture any longer. Hurray!
Me: R'n'R!
