One year ago, Azula conquered the world. One year ago, the world fell to her grips and all bowed before her. But some things still happened under her radar.
Zuko crept back to his room as silently as he could manage. He was sure the beating of his heart would alert Azula to the crime he had committed. He had broken Her Haughtiness's command by visiting the sleeping prisoner and leaving him food and tea. Now he had to make sure no one found out and took away Uncle's treats.
As he opened the door to his room, he felt a feather-light touch on his shoulder. "Boo!" said a sweetly high voice. Zuko whipped around, ready to defend his life and his newly minted honor. As he did, he caught the gentle smile of Ty Lee, his sister's pet acrobat standing there, looking mischievous. "I found you!"
"Go find something else," Zuko growled, not wanting to start a tumbling contest with her. He had too much on his mind.
"I know where you were," Ty Lee sing-songed, her eyes narrowed with interest. "Someone's been a bad boy!"
Zuko's lip curled. "And you are going to keep that to yourself," he threatened weakly, knowing that the acrobat was also one of the most formidable fighters he knew. If she wished, she could leave him a pile of jelly within the blink of an eye.
"Scratch my back," Ty Lee said with a predatory smile, as she flipped over his shoulder and into his room.
"What?" Zuko asked, wondering if she had fleas. Considering her adoration of every animal she saw, he wouldn't be surprised.
"Oh come on, you scratch my back…I scratch yours. I'm sure you heard that deal," Ty Lee said, her smile getting scarily placid.
"What do you want? Money?" Zuko asked warily. Ty Lee was the daughter of the wealthiest Daimyo in the kingdom. She didn't need very much from him.
"Nah. Think harder…much harder," Ty Lee said, her eyes traveling down his body. Her eyes had narrowed even more.
"Diamonds?" Zuko knew girls liked jewelry. Well, Azula didn't but Zuko wasn't entirely sure that Azula was female.
"I do like family jewels. Feeling them…stroking them…" Ty Lee smiled, bending into a strange position that…exposed a bit too much of her…cleavage.
"Umm…so go find some heirlooms," Zuko mumbled, his eyes trying to avoid soft pillowy areas of a woman's body that aroused uncomfortable feelings.
"Ohhh…a treasure hunt," Ty Lee said with a grin. A few quick movements of her hand and Zuko found himself immobilized on the floor. "Let's start with what's under the shirt and work our way down."
AN-And no, I am not writing what happens next. I think you all know!
