Chapter Four: A Pirate's Morals

The Half Moon pulled into port at noon in the small coastal town of Latriiu. This village also contained a Fire Nation Naval Base, but the Pirates were not involved in the war so it made little difference to them. The Pirates didn't care where people were from or what side they were on as long as they could sell and trade to them. In fact, they even had a one or two Fire Nation in the crew.

The Pirates began to straighten up their wares and get them ready to be sold. Auralee decided to get off the ship and stretch her legs. Once she stepped onto solid ground for the first time in months, she nearly fell. She regained her balance quickly and got her land legs shortly after with much experience. Just then, a very battered Fire Navy ship pulled into the port.

"Uncle I want the repairs made as quickly as possible. I don't want to lose his trail." Prince Zuko said, once their ship had pulled into the small harbor.

"You mean the avatar."

"Don't mention his name on these docks. Once word gets out that he's alive, every Fire Bender will be looking for him."

"Looking for who?" It was the last voice in thw world Auko wanted to hear:

"Captain Zhou."

"Actually, it's Commander now." The ugly man said. "Your ship has taken a good amount of damage."

"Yes…Uncle! Tell Commander Zhou what happened."

"It was incredible." Then Iroh added in a low voice, "What, did we crash or something?"

"Yes, right in to an Earth Kingdom ship."

"Really, you must regail me with all the trilling details. Join me for a drink?"

"Sorry, but we have to go." Zuko said as he started to walk away."

"Now Prince Zuko, show Commander Zhou your respect." Iroh said, he beagan to walk away with Zhou saying, "Do you have any ginseng tea? It's my favorite."

Zuko's fists flames, but he followed his Uncle none the less.

Inside Zhou's Tent…

"So, General Iroh, did you hear that The Half Moon has docked here?"

"The ship of the Pirate Princess?" Iroh shivered as the feared pirate name was spoken. "I would watch yourself then Zhou. They say she can steal anything from anyone. I hope you don't have anything that they would want."

"So do I. I cannot think of anything other than weapons that we have here that is of any value, but then again, weapons might be the worst thing to give them. But either way, she is a girl. No girl will steal from me and get away with it."

"Anyway, once we capture the…"

Auralee smirked. She was listening to a conversation being held inside one of the main tents at the Fire Nation Base. Some old man named Iroh had said her name and she could tell that everyone in the room feared it. Even though this Zhou guy said different, she could hear the fear in his voice. That was the way it should be. Fear is on of the greatest powers. That was what her old mentor Myuu had always told her. He had been the Captain of The Half Moon ten years back. She had been only five when she came, but they brought her up to survive the life of a pirate. I guess Myuu taught me well, seeing as Princess P. is now one of the most feared names in all the great seas!

She turned back to the tent and continued to listen…

"Come Uncle, we're going." Zuko said and walked towards the door. He was stopped however by two guards. One of them spoke to the Commander.

"We interigated the crew as you ordered. It seems Prince Zuko had the Avatar in custody, but let him escape."

Zhou came up behind Zuko and said with a smirk, "Now tell me, how exactly was your ship damaged?"

- - - - -

Auralle did not know who these men were, but she already hated the 'Commander Zhou'. It seemed to be smart and she repected that, but it was the way he used that smart that bothered her. Sure she was a pirate, but pirates have morals too. Number One was never steel from someone with less than you. Yet that was exactly what the Zhou guy was doing. He had hundreds of ships and men, but he chose to pick on this Zuko person who had only one small very torn up ship and few men. It went against everything Myuu had taught her, and she planned to do something about it. What that something was, she did not know, but as always, she would think of something.

She glanced at the wall behind the younger boy and could have sworn she saw a pair of golden eyes looking down on the two men from a vent.
