The Falllen Kingdom:
Will Zuko learn who to trust?
Zuko, his back straightened in perfect alighnment with the wall behind the throne, looked around cautiously, aware of everything around him. He knew something was up, bad or good, he didn't know, but he knew Azula was hiding something...

"Well?" The princess demanded.
"They're surrounding the area. Should we strike?"
"No, no, no. We'll do this my way. Oh Mai!" The young warrior moved sulkily from the shadows.
"Yes?" she droned.
"I have a task for you..."

Mai straightened herself as best she could.
"Do I really have to wear this? I think I'm gonna barf..." she held her arms in exasperation to demonstrate her weariness.
"Just go!" she heard Ty Lee whisper harshly, and pushed Mai into the doorway. She glared at the acrobat before continuing down the empty corridor towards Zuko.
The Prince raised a brow, "Yes?"
"Ummm...Zuko? I have a question..."
He leaned forward, "What?"
Mai hesitated. What was she doing? This was the Zuko that she used to enjoy looking at, the one she always looked up to for support when Azula's constant bullying left her feeling left out.
"I, um, heh hem...er, uh, well..."
At that exact moment, Azula stepped from behind the shadows, and Ty Lee cartwheeled from behind her, followed by a hord of Dai Li agents.
"What color do you like your prisoner unforms?" The Fire Princess said icily.
"How about red, to match your scar?"

Cliffy! Just wait, it gets worse...
Now, I have a problem, and I need an answer,
Tell me what you know.
Consult your mother, and if you don't, I'll ask her...
How fast can a Ferrari go?
Stupid rhymes, but I always ask questions I don't know the answer to!
