A/N Warning. Azula and Itachi act very OOC in this chapter. But there's a good reason why later in the chapter. Also, OMG I'm so sorry I took so long to update! It won't happen again. The next chapter of Human is on the way, too.
Azula and Itachi stepped out to greet their guests.
"Zuko! How is my favorite older brother!", Azula shouted joyfully.
"Look how much you've grown. I missed you, little brother.", Itachi told his brother in his normal emotionless voice. I can tell they're up to something, Sasuke and Zuko both thought.
"Itachi, is this your brother Sasuke that you've told me so much about?", Azula asked, gesturing to Sasuke.
"Yes. So that must be your brother Zuko.", Itachi said looking at Zuko. Zuko felt his body stiffen slightly. He could tell Itachi was pure evil.
"Let's go inside. You guys should get to know some of the other guests that arrived already." Azula said. They walked into a larger room and saw about thirty people there.
Zuko recognized some people like Mai, Ty Lee and his father. There were a few who he was shocked to see such as Aang, Katara, Sokka, Toph and Suki. Katara and Ty Lee were chatting with a girl who had strange pink hair. Aang was airbending a small ball of compressed air in his hand and a blonde haired boy who looked about Sasuke's age did something similar. Mai was showing off some of her weapons to a girl who appeared to be summoning her's from scrolls and a strange red-haired girl with glasses. He noticed several figures, dressed in the same clothes as Itachi.
Sasuke could barely believe his eyes. He saw most of the Akatsuki, Karin and Suigetsu from Hebi, not to mention most of his former friends from Konoha and even the Sand Village. Sakura stopped chatting with two other girls and looked at him.
"Hey, Naruto! Sasuke-kun is here!" Sakura shouted to Naruto. Naruto let the rasengan he was making fade away and turned to look at Sasuke.
"Oh, great. I think Azula and Itachi's plan was to drive me insane." Sasuke whispered to Zuko.
"But isn't it just a little strange that they invited all of their mortal enemies to their wedding?" Their conversation was interrupted when Aang, Katara, Sokka, Toph, Naruto, Sakura and Ino walked over.
"Sasuke-kun! It's been so long!", Ino said, hugging him. Zuko felt sorry for Sasuke.
"Who are you?", Sakura asked Zuko.
"I'm Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation. I'm also Azula's older brother.", Sakura looked at Katara.
"Is this the same Zuko you told me about? The one with anger management issues?" Katara motioned for Sakura to shut up.
"Yes. He's the one who you said reminded you of Sasuke.", Katara said desperately hoping to change the subject. She was thankful Zuko wasn't trying to hit her with a fire blast right now.
"I think it was nice of your sister to invite us all here five months early. Is she this nice all the time?", Naruto asked.
"Azula isn't nice. She always lies and is an evil jerk, even more of an evil jerk than her brother.", Sokka answered. Sasuke managed to push Ino away.
"She sounds like a perfect match for Itachi. They're both evil, hate their siblings and are powerful.", Sasuke told Naruto, Sakura and Ino. Zuko nodded.
"Toph, can you tell us if they're planning something?", Aang asked. Toph shook her head.
"Sorry, Twinkle Toes. I can't because the floor is carpet. And even if I could, I wouldn't be able to hear what they're saying with everyone talking."
"We have to find out what they are planning and stop them, no matter what the cost!", Rock Lee shouted, joining the conversation.
"But we still need a plan.", Katara pointed out. "We need to give them no time alone together, since that would be when they'd discuss their plan." Just then, Mai, Ty Lee, Tenten and Karin walked over. Everyone stopped talking. The people from Konoha followed Katara's lead.
"It's alright. We want to help. Ever since Azula met Itachi, she's been ignoring Ty Lee and me. She wouldn't even tell us her plan. Besides, it would give me some excitement." Mai explained.
"Why should we trust you?", Sokka asked.
"He does have a point. How do we know she's not working for the enemy?", Sasuke pointed out.
"Well, Ty Lee seems nice.", Sakura said. Katara nodded.
"Ty Lee and Mai seemed to have changed.", Katara agreed. Sokka sighed.
"Well if you say so, but when they betray us don't come crying to me!", Sokka said sarcastically.
"But how do we know who's on who's side!?", Naruto asked.
"I think we should all introduce ourselves.", Tenten said cheerfully. They all sat down, and the others joined them from around the party.
"Wait. That could take awhile. Maybe Zuko and that Sasuke guy could introduce us all.", Toph said. Zuko nodded.
"Right. I'm Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation. The bald kid with the arrow is Aang, the girl sitting next to me is Katara, and the stupid-looking one is her brother Sokka. The girl dressed in green with black hair is Toph and the girl with the warrior paint is Suki. The black-haired, pale-skinned girl is Mai and the one dressed in pink is Ty Lee.", Zuko finished. He looked toward Sasuke.
"I'm Uchiha Sasuke. The annoying blond kid with the stupid grin on his face is Naruto. The pink haired girl is Sakura, and who are you?" Sasuke asked the young man sitting next to her.
"I'm Sai, the newest member of Team 7.", he replied.
"Ok. That's Sai, the redhead girl is Karin and the one with sharp teeth is Suigetsu. The guy with the creepy eyebrows and the green jumpsuit is Rock Lee, and the girl sitting next to him is Tenten. Next to her is Neji. The others in order are Gaara, Shikamaru, Temari, Kankuro, Ino, Choji, Hinata, Kiba and Shino. Those are all the people on our side.", he murmured.
"So . . . does anyone have a plan yet?", Aang asked. Zuko opened his mouth to speak, but quickly closed it.
"What is your idea, Zuko?", Shikamaru asked. Zuko sighed.
"I doubt it's a good plan.", Katara whispered to Sakura and Sai. They all snickered. Zuko glared at her.
"My idea is for me and Sasuke to go on a fake double date with Azula and Itachi, with girls from our group. Some of the others can stake out wherever we're going.", Zuko finished.
"That's a pretty good idea, except what girl would want to go out on a date with you, even a fake one?", Katara asked. Zuko smirked.
"Actually, I was thinking about that and I decided you would be one of the best ones to come with us, since you're so doubtful my plan will work." Katara glared at him.
"And maybe Sakura should come with us too, since she seems so confident your plan will fail, too.", Sasuke said with the slightest hint of a smile on his face. Sakura felt her self blush.
"Katara, I was wondering if you wanted to dance with me?", said a strange young man with an orange mask in a black cloak with clouds. Katara blushed.
"Sure, Tobi. I would love to!", Katara replied. She took the masked man's arm and let him lead her to the dance floor.
"Who is that?", Zuko asked as he watched Katara dance with Tobi.
"Oh, that's Katara's boyfriend Tobi.", Aang replied.
"But he's wearing the same clothes as Itachi's group. Isn't she fraternizing with the enemy? What if he tricks her into telling him how we don't trust Azula and Itachi?"
"It's ok. Tobi is a good boy. He's on our side now.", Sakura added. Zuko sighed. Just then, Itachi walked over to their table.
"Are you enjoying the party?", Itachi asked grimly. Sasuke nodded.
"Big brother, I was wondering if Zuko, our girlfriends and I could go on a triple date with you and your fiancee Azula later tonight.", Sasuke asked. Sakura tried to suppress a giggle. Sasuke sounded like a little boy.
"Sure, Sasuke. Meet us in the main hall at sundown.", Itachi replied.
"Ok, big brother.", Sasuke said pretending to be cheerful. Spending the evening with Sakura, his brother and three almost strangers was not his idea of fun.
