The Memory - Chapter 3 – (This chapter is carried on from the last one)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After a while they both got through this. Zuko was telling her to keep calm and also talking to her throughout it all.
"Do you remember that first night when we went to that fountain?" he asked
She nodded before continuing.
"It's one of my favourite places"
"You used to be called Lee" she paused
"I remember that. I don't remember telling you my real name though"
"Ok push again" he said
"You didn't. One of the guys … in the shop was talking about…you and your uncle and how …he kept calling you Zuko … even though your name … was Lee" she grinned
She then became serious when Zuko said "One last push"
Jins grip on Zukos hand tightened.
The quiet room was filled with the sound of a crying child. The baby had its mother's face and its father's golden eyes.
"What are we going to call him?" Zuko said softly as he carried the baby to her.
"I like the name Lee" she reached up and kissed Zuko, before cradling Lee in her arms.
Zuko sat on the side of the bed his arm around Jin. He watched as his son was playing with the corner of the blankets.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zuko stood looking out towards the sea with Jin and Lee close by.
"Look, were home" he said putting an arm around Jin. Lee was fast asleep in her arms.
They looked at each other and closed the distance with a kiss that they hadn't shared in ages.
After they broke apart, Lee began to stir
"Look Lee your home awaits" said Jin who handed Lee to Zuko
"Ooh look Lee you home awaits aww how cute" mocked Azula who was standing behind them.
"How did you….?" Zuko began to inquire
"Escape. Duh I have lightening at my side; it's good at blasting walls"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jin had taken Lee back and was already backing away. Zuko took up fighting stance.
"What do you want? There is nothing for you to want now" Zuko shouted
"You are dumb, if I kill you and your son, I rule the Fire nation" with that she spun round sending fire that blocked Jin's path.
Zuko tried to fend her off but she had learnt from last time. Azula ran and jumped in front of Jin who dodged out the way just in time.
Azula had only just managed to grab Lee but was thrown down by a fire whip.
She turned and prepared to shoot lightening at him once again. Zuko had been expecting this but instead of trying to dodge he stood still.
"Are you going to hit me or what?" he jeered
"There is no point, if your opponent isn't going to try and defend themselves" Azula replied checking her nails.
Zuko was closer to aim a good attack. He gave a signal to Jin. She moved back and caught Azulas eye. Azula was distracted and went to shoot a fire whip at Jin.
Zuko took his chance and Azula was sent back towards the side of the boat. Azula was balancing on the side of the ship and aimed one last blow before loosing her balance.
It missed everyone but Jin, she was not hurt badly but the baby was screaming. Zuko saw a big gash in Jins arm. Their newborn son's left arm was scarred.
He turned to where Azula had landed in the water and sent finishing blows that bounced off the water. He went back to his distraught wife.
Together they cradled the newborn, their son, Lee
"Don't worry we are nearly home uncle can treat him!" he wasn't sure but it helped reassure Jin.
He kissed her and wiped away her tears before kissing his scarred son.

That was chapter 3 with more action. It was mentioned that I didn't add how Jin knew Zukos real name so I added it in this chapter, thanks to the person who spotted it. Please R&R if you want!
