Hello! I'm still sick, so well this one is going to be a little short and most likely worst than all my other oneshots. Please don't hurt me! I'm sick!
If I owned Avatar would I be writing for Zutara week, when I could actually make it happen? Didn't think so.

Zuko inwardly groaned, how long was he expected to listen to these old crazy men talk. All they were doing was going on and on and on about stupid issues. I mean who has a meeting about a cabbage man having accidents all the time. It seemed to Zuko that ever since the war ended these old bats didn't know what to do with themselves; therefore they were just making mountains out of bagermole holes. Wait no; bagermole holes are mountains, who made up that statement that counteracted itself? Zuko shook his head, it didn't matter if the saying was stupid the point was, holding a two-hour (and still ongoing) meeting on cabbages was just idiotic. Zuko had actually been doing something important when one of the councilmen ran up to him demanding his presence in the meeting room. Zuko, actually thinking it was something important, left what he was doing with a pouting face. The wrinkly aged man who was currently speaking took a breath and Zuko perked up, thinking he was done. He wasn't he started on another long drawl on the cabbage issue. Zuko resisted the urge to bang his forehead on the table. Just then the door to the room opened. A head of a female with blue eyes and long black hair and tan skin came into view. The girl looked like her mother, but her skin was a bit lighter and her hair a little darker.
"Daddy? Are you busy? I was wondering if, you weren't to busy if you could help me with my training." The girl said as she came up to her father completely ignoring the irritated look she was getting from the man she had interrupted. Zuko resisted the urge to hug his daughter till he couldn't breathe; but he didn't one reason it would be undignified, two Katara would kill him if he did that to their daughter. The man that Lien-hua, Zuko's daughter, had interrupted cleared his throat.
"I'm sorry Princess Lien-hua, but I was in the middle discussing a very important matter with your father." The man, who was named Ping, said. Zuko glared at Ping for daring to talk to his daughter like that. Lien-hua just looked up at her father and winked. She turned around.
"I'm sorry Lord Ping, I just wanted to be the best princess the Fire Nation has ever seen. I thought training would help me accomplish that." Lien-hua said her big blue eyes filling up with big (fake) tears. She even had one slip down her check. Ping swallowed; he was making the royal princess cry. He could be killed! May it be by the Fire Lady, or Lord Iroh, or even the Fire Lord himself; and that was talking about the Fire Nation royal adults, her aunts and uncles in the Water Tribes would kill him too!
Ping bowed. "No I am sorry Princess Lien-hua! Please forgive me for not seeing you only wanted to do what was best for our nation. Please forgive my incompetence!" Ping said again bowing, fear laced in his voice.
"It is no problem. I'm just going to go train with my dad now." Lien-hua said grabbing her father's arm and dragging him out of the room. She didn't let go of his wrist until she got to her room. She turned around a smirk on her face. Zuko smiled at her.
"You my friend are one manipulative little girl." He said while grinning at his daughter.
"Thank you daddy. You don't owe me anything for getting you out of there as long as you help finish building my fort." Lien-hua said a grin on her face. Which her father returned. Zuko grabbed a blanket and some pillows and started to work on his daughter's fort once again.

Well there you go. It wasn't really Zutara, but Zuko and Katara are married and have a daughter in this fic. Please review and tell me what you think. Oh by the way Ping means duckweed in Chinese and Lien-hua means Lotus flower in Chinese also. XD
