[Point of view change]

I watched the world suddenly change, I'm not a beautiful woman, never has a man ever looked at me with eyes that said he was taken by my beauty or has anyone ever pursued me.

Its for that reason that I was confident that no one would take an interest in me when I left home, I had heard stories of the Fire Prince and how he was just as cruel and as cold-hearted as his father, Imagine my surprise when as I traveled to the nearest port, that those stories slowly began to change.

The words spoken about him being cruel and uncaring were met by merchants who spoke of a man with a burned face that while cold and distant was by no means cruel, according to the merchants, many captains acted just like him.

The reason being that a captain is responsible for the lives of his men, and sometimes the cargo is their lives, for if something were to be lost, they could all become slave s or be killed.

What I saw that day, was not a cruel man, his eyes were cold and he gave off an air of authorety, but he wasn't cruel.

I watched children play around him, their smiling faces seemed to challenge his constant frown, I couldn't believe my eyes when an old man grinned widely at him and a brown-haired man with green cloths said things to him that only seemed to anger him.

Even when the prince used his fire to scare the two men off, they simply used it for an act and sell their merchandise, it was in that moment that for a brief instance I watched his frown change into a smile, it was only for an instant, but he smiled.

It was then that one could say I took a leap of faith and I wanted to see how far he could take me, my wish was only to see the world, so I gave him some old maps I took from an old soldier and with that, we were on our way.

In the mornings he would be the first man to set foot on the deck, and he would watch the sunrise, how the man knew when the sun rose I don't know, but he was soon accompanied by the old man and the brown-haired man.

Soon the soldiers or sailors on board the ship started doing the same, yet they never joined the three men on their spots, no that part of the ship was reserved for them.

I watched as elders from another land were treated with care, rather than being beaten and treated like beasts an how they would even join the sailors in the morning.

We moved from one port to another, the prince was constantly searching for someone, something, he would move from the port into the town and yet when he found nothing, he would just head back t the ship, his frown never leaving his face.

I watched as the angry look in his eyes softened when he noticed the old man, how I never knew he was the prince's uncle is beyond me, especially considering the man calls him uncle all the time.

When the sun completely rose, the prince returned to his room and everyone did their routine, I began to take him something to eat or drink and as the days passed, the cooks began to hand them to me, saying take this to the prince it's your job after all.

With nothing better to do, I passed the time inside his room and I listened to him as he wrote down everything, his pen seemed to mix with the sound of the ocean around us.

He never spoke to me, so when he ordered his closest friend to change my clothes, I was shocked.

The women from the water tribe, dressed me in garments only a noble should wear and they used oils I could never afford, I watched his expression soften if only slightly when he laid eyes on me.

I watched as he changed a once dead town with grieving people into one that seemed to have always been bursting with life.

So why is this happening?

Zuko covered his hands in fire before sending a burst of flames into the sky, the flames were immediately put out, as water shot itself from the ocean and attacked the flames before they could burn the target of the prince.

"Steal!": Kazuma, prince Zyukos closest friend screamed as a boomerang was thrown at the prince's chest, the boomerang vanished and Kazuma was suddenly holding it.

Soldiers quickly took the water tribe elders below deck and I watched as a boy who had tattoos on his head, arms and legs land in front of the prince, the two looked at each other before Prince Zuko ran towards the by, his fire now covering both his arms and legs.

The people of the town screamed as a massive beast flew down from the sky and began to force the other ships away from the port, the men tried to fight it, but the beast seemed to make the wind bend to its will and used it to put out any flames the men made.

Kazuma ran to the prince's side but a woman wearing blue cloths rant towards him, she began to use water bending and made the ocean her weapon.

Wave after wave was lifted and used to attack Kazuma, the woman forced water onto the ship, not caring that she risked sinking it.

I watched as the ice began to form around Kazuma's feet and he used the very water the woman use as a weapon to build an ice wall between him and the ocean waves.

The townspeople pulled me back and hid men amongst them before they too joined into the fight, they threw stones, used anything they had as a weapon, even when a boy nearly the same age as the prince screamed at them to stop, that they were here to help.

I watched as the attackers were pushed back, by both Zuko and Kazuma and how they were forced to fly away on the back of the beast, I watched as the prince was swallowed by fury and how his eyes became a crimson red before fire covered his body.

I wanted to stop him, but how could I when I'm not a bender.

Everyone suddenly became quiet and I felt my eyes widen as Kazuma pulled the fire from the prince's body and held it in his hands.

"Ahhh!"Zuko screamed enraged by what had just happened before ordering everyone to set sail and walking back into the ship.

Iroh Prince Zuko's uncle signaled to me to get back to the ship and as I ran back onto the ship, I watched the people's sad expressions, once again, the smiling faces of those that happily set them off were now faces filled with grief.

I smiled at them and waved goodbye and they returned to me smiles filled with sadness.

Kazuma used the fire taken from the prince to dry up the ship and I looked at the men's faces, they were the same men that I had seen since the moment I had first set foot o the ship.

Sometimes they smiled, other times they did their jobs with bored expressions, yet this time they all looked like if they could cry.

Some men were filled with rage and others could barely hold back their tears, they wept as if something was either lost or on the verge of being lost.

I walked back to the prince's room and I found that it was locked, I didn't know what to do, so I sat outside and I stade there even when I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore.
