A/N: I got this chapter out a lot earlier than I expected due to a who-can-stay-up-the-latest contest at , I had extra free time. (I lost, I only made it to 7 AM). Anyways…here is the next chapter! It's kinda short, but important nonetheless.
Disclaimer: I do not own Avatar: The Last Airbender
Chapter 5-Jenny Revealed
"I understand. This is our final chance to make the Avatar wish that Ozai had him dying a slow painful death the day of Sozin's Comet. And I am going to be the one to do it."
Jenny knew the risks at hand, she wasn't dumb. She may just be a tiny little girl at the age of 6, but she knew more than anyone expected her to. How could she not? She grew up as the daughter of the leader of the Oni. If she wanted someone assassinated, she could hire someone in an instant.
It was also very easy for her family to hide their motives here. They weren't technically lying when they said that Jenny's father was expanding his business. They were in fact recruiting new members to the Oni, which was getting bigger and more powerful than they ever expected. It was simple to fool these peasants into thinking that they were an average loving family.
It was also comical that these peasants didn't realize this family was in fact planning an attack on the Avatar.
But death wasn't what the Oni wanted for the Avatar. Maybe in the end, yes, but not right now. They wanted him to suffer, to beg for death, to cry until his eyes bled, they wanted revenge. And he was just playing too easily into their trap. It was so obvious that Aang's weakness was his family, and Nalia was the key to the Oni's victory.
Oh, Nalia. What a dumb little thing. All Jenny had to do was mention something ridiculous about air to her and she freaked. She was making this too easy, it almost wasn't fun. Jenny thought it would be at least a little harder to get inside the Avatar's home, but all it took was one day of "I love the air!"
And then she saw the Avatar herself. Just to see the joy in his eyes and love in his home made her sick. She almost gave herself away the first night at dinner, but that foolish man doesn't know anything. She really cannot fathom that this man eluded her hero, her idol.
Azula, the fallen leader, should be in her palace, eating graciously anything that she wants. She should be sitting on top of the earth, with every person in this world at her feet willing to serve her. And yet the Avatar sits here day after day eating with his family when he should be long dead. It just disgusted Jenny.
And that spawn of his is so gullible. Not that Jenny was lying really. What she was telling Nalia about how Azula had killed her father, really was true. And as soon as Jenny got the chance she started telling Nalia of her idol's greatest achievement. How Nalia's dear father and mother tried to pathetically run away from the brave and valiant Dai Li Agents in an underground city made of green lime stones. And how the prowess Azula killed Nalia's father as he attempted to save himself, sending a blinding flash of lightning straight through his back.
She never could quite tell her how the Avatar survived though, as she did not know the answer herself. So she just told Nalia that he cheated his way back to life using his Avatar powers, and that if he deserved to stay alive he wouldn't have died in the first place.
My, my, that did really frighten young Nalia. And Jenny loved it. She always hung around Nalia at school, never letting her out of her sight. And she loved to remind her of her father's failure. Nalia started to get scared of her though, so Jenny laid off for a little while and played "flying", but she managed to slip in her devious comments that she knew would keep Nalia awake at night.
All in all she was glad the way things were working out, and was more anxious than ever to begin the next phase of the Oni's plan, which is finally now ready to begin.
